Amelia White x Xavier Knight (Not Edited)
🌸 Amelia White 🌸
At just 21, Amelia has known nothing but the quiet walls of St. Mary's Orphanage. Gentle, shy, and with a heart too big for her own good, she works at a small bakery to save for her dreams. Her life is simple, ordinary... until it isn't.
Because in her arms is Emilia-a tiny 7-month-old baby abandoned just like she once was. Amelia has vowed to love her, to protect her, to give her the mother she never had.
⚜️ Xavier Nicholas Knight ⚜️
At 28, he is power wrapped in a flawless suit. CEO of the Knight Empire. The ruthless don of the American mafia. Billionaire. Greek-god looks. A man carved from danger and ice, with a towering 6'5 presence that makes the world bow before him. Cold. Untouchable. Deadly.
✨ But when Xavier Knight collides with Amelia White, two worlds that should never have met intertwine.
Her innocence. His darkness.
Her fragile heart. His unshakable power.
And neither of their lives will ever be the same again.

Amelia was working in her dream job. Good job, good pay, and good boss! Then, something changes and life takes an unexpected turn. Welcome to the unpredictable journey of Amelia. Preview ******** "Don't provoke me Amy" He groaned, his eyes darting towards my lips. "ugh? Wha? - what did I do now?" I almost crocked as I wet my lips again. "This" He swooped down to capture my lips. It was not a gentle kiss. It was hard and passionate and I couldn't do anything but be melted. My core throbbed as my hands went around his neck to clench his hair. His heat engulfed me and just when I thought my knees will give away, suddenly everything went cold. "Wha-t huh?" A moment before we couldn't have enough of each other and now, he was standing away, near his huge window, staring at me. "Please leave Ms. Wilson" his voice was tart. I couldn't believe we were back to the last name basis. "How dare you?" I was furious. "Tone, Ms. Wilson" His lips were a thin line. "Then behave, Mr. Holden" I straightened my dress and hair and turned on my heel. *************************************************************************** Greetings, Thank you for giving this book a chance :) Please read, comment and hit the Star :) --Cover pic credit to squammie.wordpress.com/Complete
