~Zyvea POV~
All I wanted was to save money from a good job, enough for medical school. How did I end up with a dead, reclusive parent and a sprawling estate!? I spent my entire life scrapping by with every penny I found and stretched, and yet that old bastard sat on acres of property that he didn't care enough to mention, let alone take care of. 
    Thick forest has swallowed more than half of it, save for the large manor house and the surrounding couple of acres of wild garden. There's something to its wildness that beacons me, almost feels like it wants me to chase it. They say that it's dangerous to wander there, but I feel an urgency. Almost as if my presence is an answer to its impending wildness. Should I answer its call?

Daughter of Nyx (Book Three) by StephanieYarns
23 parts Complete Mature
Reaching a decision that will forever change her life, not to mention the fate of the world, she seeks out the one person that can give her the strength she needs. However, she knows that this help won't come easy. Or painless. What she doesn't realize is that the Sons of Iapeth are on the hunt and should she get the help she desperately desires, they will come for her. With one group hunting her and another group hunting those she loves, the walls are closing in and time for them is running out and just as it seems there may be moonlight in her future, she lets her guard down and may pay the ultimate price. THIS IS THE THIRD BOOK OF THE (what was supposed to be trilogy, but it's looking like four... I hate me.) FOUR BOOK SERIES. If you start here, you will be HELLA confused. Please go back to Daughter of Night (A daughter of Nyx novel) STANDARD DISCLAIMER!!! THERE WILL BE SEXY TIME. There will be a lot of it. There will also be things that happen that might be uncomfortable to read. I can't apologize, because this is the story. I HOPE I gave enough warning to what was coming in the last book to not shock anyone. But here's your warning. THINGS MIGHT CHANGE as I am not finished with the novel. If things do, I will post an A/N alerting anyone to the fact, with the date, so you know if you need to check up on it. Because I still have SO MUCH STORY to go, I'll post the first three chapters now, because I feel safe that they won't change. After that I will post a chapter every other day. When I finish, I'll post the rest of it at once. Okay, so, not that I have written a novella here, I will start posting the novel. To my returning readers, I love you all, so fucking much!

[CASTELLO DI CARTE MAFIA CHRONICLES, #1] [Formerly known as *Precarious: The Game of Hearts*] 𝐁𝐄𝐋𝐋𝐀 When my mother's declining health forced me to reconsider my career options, my boss steered me in an unexpected direction. The job was simple: get in, get the information, and get the hell out. Except, it wasn't that easy. Especially when my target was the most nefarious man alive in New York. The closer I got to him, the more I saw sides of him I never knew existed. He burned me with his scorching touch, demanding kisses and eager gazes. He was determined to have me at all costs. One might think he would stop at that, but-devil, help me-he needed more. More than I was ready to give. There was a reason I never wanted to enter the Underworld. When my past came crashing onto my doorstep, every lie unravelled, but nothing prepared me for the worst. That was the truth about the connection between the man I desired and my dead sister. π€πƒπŽππˆπ’ We all know what they say about sweet things: when consumed excessively, they turn from savoury to bitter in seconds. That was what she was. A poor excuse for a sweet I wanted to devour. I wanted to make her suffer with the same intensity. She deserved it. And so did her scheming sister. Only, I didn't know the latter was dead, and I might be the one at fault. But did that stop me from craving the sweet? Hell, no. If anything, my desire to have her had magnified. She became mine the moment she walked into my life with those hauntingly beautiful blue eyes. She was the only one who could give me the one thing I never had in life: happiness. But being the master at ruining everything I cared for, how could I ever be the man she wanted me to be?

Tears threatened to spill out from my eyes as I looked at my reflection in the mirror. DEVASTATED and BETRAYED. Suddenly, the door of the room opened and slammed shut. I looked at his reflection from the mirror and wiped off my tears hurriedly before shoving the card inside one of the drawers, not wanting him to know about it. He came and hugged me from behind resting his chin on my shoulder. Reality dawned upon me and fear crawled up on each and every ounce of my skin. Sweat buds formed on my forehead and neck as I looked at him staring at me intensely from the mirror. His gaze was filled with desire. He turned me towards him by holding my waist gently and sealed our lips in a soft and gentle kiss. I closed my eyes trying to hold back my tears which were ready to spill out anytime feeling disgusted with his touch. At that moment of helplessness, all I was praying to God was 'please god let it be a dream where I'll wake up beside the love of my life, my Rann' but the saddest reality is it's not. "My Rann is a ruthless killer. He is a Devil with whom I got married."
