In the quiet corners of Rome, where ancient myths and modern struggles collide, Seraphina, a reserved artist haunted by a turbulent past, seeks refuge. Having escaped a toxic relationship with the manipulative Dominic, she believes distance can mend the shattered pieces of her soul.

Unknown to her, Dominic, harboring a sinister secret, follows in the shadows. He's not merely a man but a vessel for dark forces seeking to exploit Seraphina's vulnerability.

Amid the cobblestone streets and ancient ruins, Seraphina crosses paths with Dr. Alessandro Rossi, an enigmatic therapist of Italian descent. Together, they unravel the threads of her trauma, discovering an otherworldly connection that neither anticipated.

As the Veil of Shadows descends, revealing succubi and incubi who feed on human desires, Seraphina and Alessandro must navigate the blurred lines between reality and fantasy. They unearth a shared destiny that intertwines their fates with the supernatural entities seeking to tip the scales between chaos and order.

Seraphina's journey becomes a quest for self-discovery and healing, entwined with a burgeoning love that challenges the boundaries of the natural and supernatural. The struggle against Dominic takes on a mythical significance, a battle not only for Seraphina's safety but for the balance of forces beyond mortal comprehension.

Themes of resilience, love, and the indomitable human spirit emerge against a backdrop of ancient mysticism and contemporary psychological exploration. The characters grapple with their own shadows, learning that true strength arises not from succumbing to desires but mastering the delicate dance between pleasure and pain.

I dreamed of him again last night. He came to me in his riveting form, dressed in the liturgical signature black attire. His dark hair slicked back, accentuating the alluring frame of his chiseled jaw, with the figure of a sculpted deity, just as I'd remembered him. His invigorating smile was seducing me, taunting me, reigniting the sparks that had been scuffled by the lingering absence of his affinity. His daunting eyes consumed me, staring, burning with the intensity of a thousand flames. His beguiling features were enticing, drawing me in, and I was falling deeper, further into his arms until he was drifting and faded away in the shadows. Mornings after were imbued with feverish yearning that waned throughout the day, leaving me to a dreadful emptiness, a void that failed to dissipate during the two years apart. It had been the longest winter without him. All Adriana wanted was to be free. But it came with a cost, one that she hadn't expected to so deeply regret. The very life that she had once tremendously despised was now what she craved the most. But things are different after being away, for she is no longer the helpless, vulnerable girl taken nearly two years ago by the man who now holds her heart on a thread. The man who made a promise. A promise that he couldn't keep. She remembers everything from the moment she was rescued from the claws of one evil to the nightmarish events that transpired in the hands of another. As her dark past collides with the present and her love for the ruthless Mob Boss is put to a test, Adriana has to confront the demons that were responsible for her ruin and make an irreversible decision that will seal her ultimate fate. This is the second book to Il Paradosso Mafia Series. #1 omerta #2 crimefiction

UPDATES EVERY WEEK! Vivienne Lee is pretty sure her next-door neighbor is a serial killer. What else could explain his creepily minimalistic apartment décor, inhumanly antisocial behavior, and that frighteningly emotionless demeanor? Oh, and don't forget the random bloody body parts that have a habit of showing up. It's too bad she's not scared of him. Or his unveiled threats on her life. But an emotionally scarred gangster on the run - riding the brink of insanity and followed by a whole host of trouble - is a lot more than she could've bargained for. Massimo Romano is beyond redemption. Capo of the increasingly powerful Romano crime family, the sociopathic Prince of Chicago, hell wrapped in a designer suit. He exemplifies perfect control and restraint... Until now. His job has always come easily to him for the very same reason that his name is feared widely: he's incapable of emotion. But something horrifying and sinister is beginning to happen to him. And it turns out that pesky slipping sanity of his is the least of his concerns. Because his new neighbor is a ray-of-sunshine wildcard dipped in beauty like he's never seen, and she won't leave him alone. Worse, he can't decide if he should kill or protect her. Massimo doesn't count on Vivienne being the first person to look at him like he's human. Or demons from his past coming back to haunt him. Much less a new threat looming on the horizon. Or love. Especially not that. ♛ Deviant Prince is a slow burn, enemies to lovers, dark mafia romance with mature content and dark themes. Read at your own discretion.

"Stand up.", he said to me. "What?", I asked confused. "STAND UP.", he ordered slightly aggressive. I quickly got up from the bed and stood in front of him. "Take off your underwear.", he demanded. "Wh-" "Now." Doing what he told me to I slowly slipped my underwear off. I was now completely naked as his eyes roamed over my whole body again. "Lay down on your back." Once again I obeyed him without talking back this time which caused him to smirk. Then he grabbed my hands and cuffed them to the bed frame. My eyes widened and as I was about to ask him what he's doing he held up one of his hands. Understanding his signal I remained silent.
