"Well, darling, would you mind letting him know Rush is here to see him? I'm certain he had me penciled in for this afternoon."
"Rush? Yes, I do remember seeing that on his schedule. One moment -" she fingered through the planner of Mr. Franko's dates. "Oh, yes, I see it right here. Rush Frank-"
She stopped short when the very obvious revelation of their relation came to her. Her heart seemed to tremble as she looked back up at him to see his jovial eyes twinkling from the humor he found in her mistake.
"I know I'm a little late but he shouldn't mind. That's what big brothers are for, huh? How long have you worked here? I haven't seen you before so you must be new."
"This is my first day, actually."
"Really? Welcome, then. I'm sure you'll love it here. Lagoda is simply," something twinkled in those bright eyes, "to die for."

"Every word that comes out of her mouth," he says, his voice echoing through the cavernous room, "will hold as much power and meaning as my own. You disrespect her," he pauses, his gaze sweeping over each man, "you die. You look down at her, you die. You think of her in any way but as my equal, you die, and the process will be... unpleasant."

Beautiful in Jada
The strong pull to her. The desire to have something you never thought you would want again. A glance turned into an obsession. And he would stop at nothing to get her. He would do anything he could to keep her. He cared so much for only her Alessio Bucceri was a man who could have anything he ever wanted. Until he wanted that one thing to need him back. Circumstances run in his favor as the woman of his dreams landed into his domain. He would never let her go. A chance glance turned obsession. #1 BWWN! #1 Mafia [4/12/24] *Book excerpt* -- Her cheeks turned red, ever so slightly through her chocolate skin. Her skin looked and felt so smooth. She liked the compliments, the Italian flare. It ropes many women, but the way she looked at me with her big almond eyes had my mind racing and my body in overdrive. She was not immune to my charm, even in her current situation. Her hair was in a slick bun. I was sad not to be able to see the curls adorne her face. And yet she stared at me again, watching me like a dog. Curious gazes. It was fun to tease, and the response I got back over affirmed my teasing. She seemed more relaxed with me. She looked away from me. She stared out the window watching the street ride by. It was silent for a while as I texted my subordinates basic commands. Nothing conspicuous. "Alessio, where are you taking me," her voice piped up. Seems like it took her a while to muster up the courage. I loved her sweet voice when it spoke me me and when she said my name... It was such a turn-on. She wasn't supposed to really ask questions. I don't like lots of questions. I thought about the best way to respond but opted not to say anything at all. She was as stubborn as always, forgetful too. She scanned around me before huffing to herself and looking back out the window. -- Started 06/08/2023- 8/14/2023 Highest Rankings: #7 Arranged [4/26/24] #26 Older #1 Bwwm #13 Man #1 Mafia #1 lovetragedy #6 lovestory #5 BlackwomenComplete
You V.S. Mafia
[COMPLETED] "Shoot," Joey mumbles, letting out a string of profanities under his breath. We turn around to find a group of men, all with guns, standing where we just came from, and they look pissed... probably because they were forced to run through this tunnel after us. "Thought you could get away, didn't you?" The man who I saw before asks. His husky voice booms in the hollow tunnel, reverberating off of the dirt walls. His voice sounds familiar, and a realization strikes me. It sounds like the man from my dream. I remember him holding a gun and wearing a blue suit, smiling evilly at me. "Leave us alone," Joey says, sounding dangerous and snapping me out of my thoughts. The levity of the situation hits-we need to get out of here. I look around for a route of escape and thankfully I see a light, literally, at the end of the second tunnel. I let out a small, almost inaudible, gasp and nudge Joey. He looks at me and I subtly gesture with my head to the second tunnel. He glances at it and immediately we are on the same page. His jaw sets and he looks at the group. The man speaks up again, chuckling darkly-a sound I will never forget and will be permanently etched into my brain, "You can thank your father for starting this mess." -------------------------- Liza was a normal teenaged girl, living the average life that an eighteen year old girl should be living. She had good friends, good grades, a happy family, a loving boyfriend, and an overall content life, seemingly having everything a person could ask for.

The Jamaican Princess
Gabrielle's parents were the dons of the most feared mafia in the world; The Jamaican Mafia. After witnessing her Parents' death, and was hunted by their killer, she decided to join the Russian mafia, in need of an army to avenge their death. What could possibly go wrong? -- SNEAK PEAK ;) My heart started beating faster as he came closer to me. He placed the chair in front of me and sat staring at my face. "You're not Russian. Are you American?" He stated and asked. I shrugged, "You can say that" He chuckled without moving his face so I knew he didn't find it amusing. "What is your name?" He said getting closer to my face. I couldn't look away and I couldn't lie. "Gabrielle," I said softly. He looked pleased hearing my name, "hmm Gabrielle" he said pronouncing my name like perfection, rolling the r. I think I might change my name from Gabrielle to the way he pronounced it. "Who. are. you?" He said dangerously slow and low. " I just said I'm Gabrielle" I stated, I probably shouldn't have done that. He moved so fast, one second he was in the chair, the next thing I knew, his hands were wrapped around my throat tightly. I gasped in surprise at his sudden action. Might I add, him choking me did not scare or hurt me at all, in fact, it did the opposite. --- #5 in Jamaican 17/02/2021 #1 in Jamaica 19/06/2021 #2 in russia 12/11/2021 [Started: Dec 2020] [Ended: May 28 2021] J U S T.
