(Book One)
Athena Genova D'Angelo knows how to survive.
By day, she waits tables. By night, she makes real money underground-bare-knuckle fights, illegal street races, anything to keep the lights on and the past buried.

She doesn't need anyone. Especially not family.

But everything changes the night a group of powerful strangers walks into the restaurant. Dark suits. Sharp eyes. Dangerous energy. And one undeniable truth:

They're mafia.
And they just might be her blood.

Athena's about to find out that the past doesn't stay buried for long, and neither do secrets.

This is the first book of a trilogy. All books must be read in chronological order as you may not understand what is happening and I will not be responsible for the caused confusion. ~~~~~~~~~ BRIELLE One night turned into a complete fiasco that seemed to haunt her to the present day. Brielle Hansley was the picture-perfect girl with perfect grades, a reserved job offer and a boyfriend who seemed perfect. At first. Her life couldn't have been any better until her sister got engaged to the man whose brother she knew better than she desired. It was only a month, she told herself. A month under the same roof and then everything would go back to normal. But as she starts to discover new secrets that seem to intertwine her life with his, she doubts she will ever be able to forget the man with whom a one-night stand seemed too good to be true. ~~~~~~~~~ NICOLAS Nicolas Salucci, the heir to the Italian Cosa Nostra was reserved and couldn't confide in anyone. It seemed like his life would continue to be as shallow and dark as his father made it to be until he met her. After overhearing a scheme which could end Nicolas's life, she demanded only a single night. One that he was tempted to give her and did. Only, he didn't think that that one night would cost him his entire heart. The woman was everything he desired and more. Yet he despised her. His father had chosen a woman for him to marry yet how could he marry someone whom he had no feelings for? As verities begin to arise, Nicolas begins to realise that maybe he only hated himself for falling for a woman he couldn't have. And a woman that quickly became his forbidden desire... ~~~~~~~~~ Warning!!! Includes explicit sexual scenes, strong language, mature content, and mentions of suicide.

𝑫𝑹𝑶𝑾𝑵𝑬𝑫 𝑩𝑳𝑶𝑶𝑫, Book 1 in 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐃𝐑𝐎𝐖𝐍𝐄𝐃 𝐒𝐄𝐑𝐈𝐄𝐒 a dark enemies-to-lovers gang/mafia romance by 𝐊. 𝐃𝐀𝐑𝐊. 𝐄𝐂𝐇𝐎𝐄𝐒 𝐎𝐅 𝐎𝐋𝐘𝐌𝐏𝐔𝐒 One of the most feared and deadly syndicates in all of Italy. Whispers of their names alone sent shivers down the spines of even the boldest criminals. But among them all, none cast a longer shadow than 𝐌𝐄𝐃𝐔𝐒𝐀-the leader, the weapon, the son of the oldest Russo, and the most brutal soul in the underworld. He wasn't a monster carved from myth. He was worse-human. A man built like a god, carved by rage, and cursed with eyes like the original Gorgon. They didn't turn people to stone anymore... but they froze them just the same. An arms trafficker. A tactician. A tyrant. Medusa wasn't born from the Echoes of Olympus-he forged them with blood and fire. But he wasn't the only myth walking in flesh. She had spent a year running from her past, a year choosing every day not to end it all with a blade across her veins. She could have vanished. But instead, she reached out with bloodstained hands-back into the shadows where it all began. Her name was spoken in the underground like a curse. 𝐇𝐄𝐂𝐀𝐓𝐄-the black-haired goddess. Unpredictable. Unyielding. A tormentor of tormentors. And a woman with nothing left to lose. Now, both rulers of the dark are forced into a fragile alliance-two myths wrapped in flesh, carrying fire and fury in their veins. And they just happen to share the same enemy.

The Long Lost Mafia Prince

57 parts Complete

~~ "Torturami ogni giorno, ma ferisci chi amo, pagherai." ~~ {} Rayver Cruise is not your cliché male character. He's not strong, he's not rich, he's not fearless, he's not scary, and he's totally not strong-hearted. Yet. {} Regina Luciano is also not your cliché girl. She's not weak, she's not possessionless, she's not panicky, she's not timid-looking, and she's not weak-hearted. Yet. ~~ This is not your cliché book, because these two aren't lovers. They're twins. A lethal older twin sister, and a shy younger twin brother. ~~ Will he be the one who can make Regina feel an emotion aside from anger and bloodlust? Or will she ignore the fact that she has a twin? Not to mention, his father is the leader the Italian Mafia, his sister is the Mafia princess/heir, making him the long lost Mafia prince.
