He's the Alpha... but she's in charge.

Rhys and Calla are the eldest children of rival city leaders. They have no reason to interact, until fate forces them together.

When a member of Rhys's camp is filmed attacking an innocent person on land claimed by Calla's family, Calla is brought in to manage the PR disaster. Used to being the top dog, Rhys resents taking orders from an enemy, attractive though she may be.

Rhys isn't just an obnoxious, billionaire playboy to Calla; he's one of her prime suspects. Not only is she convinced he's guilty of the attack, she also believes he kidnapped her best friend. They may hate each other, but as they're forced to work together and trust each other, their chemistry becomes undeniable.

With heinous crimes continuing-all pointing towards Rhys and his family, it's not long until tensions in the city yield to violence. The only way they'll make it through safely is with each other's help. But if their families find out about their forbidden relationship, their jobs and social standing-and even Calla's life-will be at stake. Rhys must make the choice to defy his family... or risk Calla becoming their next victim.

"Have a repeat?"

The Secret Angel Series by MelanieGomez470

18yo+....... Descriptive sex scenes, abuse, adult themes, violence. Adults only.... This series is copyrighted! This is book 1 in the series... Nate whispers to me "Mommy that's him... that's the man!" "Baby which man? The one from your dream? Are you sure?" "Yes momma, the one that's gonna save us." "Sweetie, no one will save us, unfortunately. I promise though I will find a way out of this mess." "Momma, we have to pray that he will." I am so focused on Nate that I don't see that this man has now stopped right in front of us. I slowly stand up trembling, and look up at him since he's quite taller than me and very broad shouldered. I thought my boyfriend Scott was in good shape, but this man has to be engineered. I start scanning around quickly making sure Scott hasn't come home yet. If he caught me even glancing towards another guy, it wouldn't end well. I start getting nervous praying that I don't get caught. "Can I help you Sir?" "Look I am not going to get involved, but here take my card. All it has is my phone number. Put it in your phone under Angel. When It gets too much, and you've had enough text the number with 911 and I'll get you out."

Evelyn knew what she needed to do, and that's getting a job and returning home. When she can't find a job, her stepbrother, Dimitri, offers her one. Innocent enough, right? Little does she know; she's thrown headfirst into the mafia world. Her feelings for Dimitri grows as she's forced to live with him, but her boyfriend, Mark, is someone her mother would be proud to see her with. Will her dreams change? Will she change? Excerpt: "Ask me nicely." His sultry voice twists my stomach in the best of ways. "Wha- what do you mean?" I mentally kick myself for allowing his power to rule me. This only builds his ego. He leans forward towards my face, his nose barely touching mine. "What is it that you want, piccola." He whispers. What did I want? Oh! That's right, I wanted to leave. "I would like to leave." I take a step back from him so I can focus.

Everything I went through was worth it. "Don't worry, mommy's coming," I said in a baby voice hoping to comfort him even though he wasn't crying. My heart dropped in my chest when I saw it was empty. No baby in sight. "Gray!," I screamed loudly like I was getting stabbed over and over again. He ran into the nursery, scanning the area for any danger. "He's gone! Our baby's gone!" His eyebrows furrowed as his eyes softened realising what happened. Just as quick as it came, it vanished and he was back with the icy look in his eye. The one he had when we first met. For a moment, I was afraid of him going back to his old self before dismissing that thought and focusing on my missing newborn son. Don't worry, I'm coming for you, my little bubba... Will the angel given to him melt the Alphas ice solid façade or not? Is she helping him escape his darkness or is she dragging him into hers? Read to find out... Cover by @belladz07
