"In the shadows of her past, Ivory's life is a dark and twisted labyrinth. But her greatest reason for living is her daughter-the spark that keeps her from succumbing to the darkness that has consumed her.

When she's forced to team up with Salvador Castillio, a ruthless mafia boss, to take down their common enemy, Ivory finds herself torn between her desire for revenge and her growing attraction to this enigmatic stranger. But as she navigates the treacherous landscape of their uneasy alliance, she begins to realize that she's been living in a prison of her own making.

As Ivory learns to break free from the shackles of her past and find happiness in the present, she's faced with a daunting question: how can she learn to love when she's never truly experienced it before? And what happens when she discovers that love can be just as intoxicating as the darkness that has haunted her?

5 parts Ongoing Mature
Like in the deck of cards, the Ace outranks the King-and so does Ace Salvatore. A Greek-Italian mafia leader feared by all, Ace is a man of unspeakable cruelty, a calculated mind ruling an empire built on blood and terror. His face is a mystery- those who've seen it are long gone, silenced by his wrath. Manipulative, controlling, psychotic, and untouchable, he rules his empire with an iron fist, his past buried beneath layers of bloodshed and regret. His obsession with power and control leaves no room for weakness-not in himself, not in his enemies, and certainly not in others. When a desperate debtor can't repay what's owed, he offers something unexpected to settle the score: a little girl. Ace accepts the deal, not out of need, but because curiosity flickers in his mind- a curiosity he loathes. Yet the little girl is more than just an innocent. She unknowingly awakens ghosts of Ace's past- a life of betrayal, loss, and secrets he swore to bury. Even monsters have scars. The darkness that shaped him, the wounds he carries, and the revenge that fuels his every decision begin to resurface. The past never truly stays buried. As their worlds collide, her presence becomes both his salvation and his torment. But as the past catches up, threatening to destroy everything, Ace must face a harrowing choice: cling to the monster he's become, or risk everything for the one thing he never thought he'd have- a chance at redemption. Will his darkness consume her and change her? Or will she destroy him? #First book got removed by wattpad so I am updating it again.

"Please," I whisper, my voice trembling as tears prick the corners of my eyes. "Please don't hurt me." The words barely escape my throat, fragile and desperate. He studies me for a moment, tilting his head slightly, almost as if he's amused by my plea. Then he scoffs, the sound sharp and mocking. "Why would I want to do that?" he murmurs, his voice smooth but carrying a dark undertone that chills me. He takes a step forward, and instinctively, I step back. "I've just found you..." He pauses, his gaze dragging over my face like a predator sizing up its prey. "And now you're mine." Aurora Evans leads a life of simplicity. Eat, work, sleep-her unchanging regimen is her sanctuary, and she has no intention of altering it. But what unfolds when a shadowy figure, lurking beyond her windows, takes an insidious interest in her? One glance at her in a café ensnares him, rendering him captivated, his singular ambition becoming clear: to claim her as his own. Aurora's attempts to escape his shadowy games are futile, especially in the cloak of night when he emerges, weaving his spell under the cover of darkness. He teases, entices, and pushes her perilously close to her breaking point. Her resolve is to distance herself as much as possible. Yet, fate has a cruel sense of irony. When she is abruptly dismissed from her previous job, she unwittingly lands a position working for him-as his assistant-entangling her in a web she can no longer evade. *A STALKER ROMANCE* #1 in "assistant" 12/23/24 #1 in "criminal" 3/8/25

She is a lot like her mom in more ways than one. Their personalities are a lot alike but Ivory also happens to be an 'easy' target to other mafias. Many people try to kidnap her, many people you have already met still want their revenge. Ivory has been in love with her childhood best friend, but he only sees her as a little sister. At least that's what she thinks. ******************************** I hear the gun click. I close my eyes and prepare for the bullet to hit me. I hear the loud gunshot ring out from five yards infront of me but I don't feel anything. I open my eyes to see Shay facing me about to fall. I quickly catch him, set him down, and shoot the boy before he can run. I hit him in the knee so he doesn't die but he can't get away. We need to get information out of him. "Shay? Shay stay with me okay?" I look around to find his bullet wound but can't seem to find it. "Where were you hit?" Shays eyes close and he doesn't respond. "Damn it, Shay!" I hit him in the chest. Not that that would help I just want him to wake up. The rest of my family and the other families have joined us by now. Angelina still sits next to Gia frozen. *** Book Cover done by @_navyblueee_
