"A dagger? Are you flirting with me, amore?," came the crafty tease when I didn't him the satisfaction of a retort.

Psyche Evelyn Thorne is the youngest daughter in a long line of prestigious virtuosos. Her step-sisters however were very envious of her talent for haunting melodies and her voice. Conspiring to get rid of her, they forced her to get married into the mysterious, isolated House Whitebane. Evelyn was certain that the  Young Lord would refuse such a ludicrous proposal but what a shock it was to her when he accepted.  Why her? 

If not Love or Power, what could he possibly seek from her?

C: "I've mastered the shadows...yet she tempts me with her lustre".

 But when my mask is gone, will she fear the monster underneath?

At the same time that their tale occurs, a wormhole has opened to the kidnapping of several missing children, and danger lurks at the return of a sadistic secret-society. Will the detective and her best friend solve this case, or watch as history repeats itself again?

Like clockwork. For the question wasn't where, it was when.

This story takes place in the Isle of Volta where  we reimagine a dark, gothic retelling of the Greek myth of Eros and Psyche with an air of mystery. Its' Belle meets the Beast but with disturbing twists, and with wholesome moments that give you butterflies~

Enjoy sweethearts^^

In a world of predictable stories, this particular one is anything but... Daphne Jackson, unemployed and unmarried, was forced into a nuisance. And as headstrong as she can be, she was in no control over what dangers she has been tangled into. Aurelio Romano's rather ominous business forced him into New York, but because of his nationality he could get caught and deported back to Italy where further investigation would lead them to find everything. He goes to immense measures to ensure his cover of innocence, security and legalism. As Daphne get's more and more involved, hidden mysteries become solved and the ugly truth surfaces. A powerful Mafia leader and a pertinacious young woman. What could possibly go wrong? ------------ Daphne sucked a breath when she found herself trapped underneath the muscular Aurelio. He looked her deep into the eyes and bend down lower into her neck. "This is what you wanted, yes?" She shivered underneath his weight and lifted her hands up to his chest. Suddenly the playful mood in her was all gone. His hand caressed her thigh up to her hip, and it didn't help much that she was in very short shorts and her shirt had ridden up halfway in the fuss. She felt his... every ...touch. Oh, how she had the urge to kiss the man right now, but she couldn't move. She had never been in this situation with a guy before. Much less a one like Aurelio. He looked at her, like really looked at her. It felt to Daphne like he was staring into her soul. What was he going to do now that he had her trapped? "You have my attention Daphne. Now what?"

"Your clothes. They bother me. 𝐓𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐦 𝐨𝐟𝐟." ~ Marriage was not for love -it was for business. It was a strategic move that one had to make wisely. For the Lombardis and the Morettis, this marriage was the most calculated, showstopping move of the century. Roman Moretti, the Don of the Italian Cosa Nostra, and Angeline Lombardi, the only daughter of the French-Italian Mafia Capo, have been betrothed since her birth and were matched to be the bridge that reigned in the two families' supremacy. Hidden away from the world and never seen by any outsider's eye, Angeline was molded and perfected into being the ideal wife since she took her first breath. Controlled, silenced, and undermined, Angeline has known her place in the world from a young age and understands that the second she makes a mistake, she will be defiled and used in any way someone sees fit. But everyone else's first mistake about her is the most helpful: they underestimate her. Even though no one has met her, everyone thinks of the Lombardi Princess being useless and an object for show. Roman sees this marriage as a necessity but not a vital part of his life. He is already feared by all and has countries at his feet; he knows no limits to his control and has men terrified to meet his eyes. To him, Angeline is a means to an end and only there to secure what he already has. He plans to keep her away in a separate house, miles away from his own, and only make appearances with her when it's necessary. But all of his plans change when he sees her for the first time, walking down the aisle towards him. She is pure perfection and knows that she will be his end. His every weakness. His every obsession. His every motivation. But what if that was Angeline's plan all along? ~ "You, my Angel, have 𝐫𝐮𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐝 me for anyone else." ~ -HEA -Mature scenes/18+ -Romance/mystery/thriller/action -Strong FMC -No Cheating/OWD
