Silk and Scars
They took me when I was three. Since then, I've forgotten what safety feels like... what love is supposed to be. Every scar on my body tells a story-none of them with a happy ending. By day, I protect my little brothers. By night, I fight to silence the screams echoing in my head. There's no escape from this house. Not yet. But I haven't given up. Not completely. Sometimes, I wonder... What if there's more to my past than I know? What if I wasn't meant to live like this-trapped, broken, forgotten? And what if... just maybe... Someone out there still remembers me? Someone who could love me enough to bring me back to life?

Mafia's Lilly (Complete)
She didn't know that her father was cruel enough to sell her out to the most fearful man in all of England. Let all alone force her to marry the man who could kill anyone without a blink of an eye or a single regret because his heart was ice-cold since (at a young age) the woman he loved broke his heart for another man's money. Many years later, Valentino was the richest and not to mention the most dangerous man in England. If the rumours don't scare you enough, his torso and arms covered in tattoos would tell you. Or maybe the two guns he carries around wherever he goes no matter the circumstances. And if 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 doesn't convince you, how about the fact that he married a woman for the sake of his company, and then got her pregnant (which by the way he was never there for her while she was pregnant until the day his child was born). The birth of his child was an awakening to life. The day his baby was born he felt love and warmth in his once stone heart. He realized - while holding his child - that he must protect it at all cost. Even if that means defeating all his enemies one by one. But in doing so, he needs to keep his wife closest to him, so she doesn't get hurt. After all, she is the mother of the thing he loves the most. ⚑ mature content ⚑ strong languageComplete![Heart of Ruin - Stone and Fire #3 [17+]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/382983862-256-k806002.jpg)
Heart of Ruin - Stone and Fire #3 [17+]
They tell me love is a pretty lie. A cruel deception. I wouldn't know-I've never been given the chance to believe in it. A daughter of the Cosa Nostra, passed from one husband to the next like a prized possession, I have learned one thing: a woman's value is measured in obedience. But then I come back, and he's there. Enzo Mancini. Silent. Ruthless. Untouchable. Except... I have touched him. Once, before the lies. Before the fire. Before he left me with nothing but ghosts of a boy who used to stare at me like I was his only sin. Now, he looks at me like I'm his reckoning. Like he's been starving. Like he'll ruin me all over again. The worst part? I want him to. Enzo Mancini She was never supposed to know the truth of that night. The blood on my hands. The fact that I let her believe I was the monster. I told myself I could let her go. That I could watch her slip through my fingers, fall into the hands of men who never deserved her. And I did. She doesn't know what I've done for her. How many bodies I've buried. How many sins I've committed in her name. She's everything I should stay away from. Soft where I am hard. Chaos where I am order. A temptation so dangerous, it should be a death sentence. But I can't stop. I can't stop watching her, wanting her, losing sleep over the way she lingers like a curse in the nightmares she inhabits. She calls me heartless, and like everyone, I let her believe it. She doesn't know that every step she takes away from me is another step toward a man who won't live long enough to touch what's mine. I saved her from the fire long ago, the same one I caused. And now, the flames are swallowing me whole. 17+ Mafia Dark Romance *Standalone*

"Fuck you!," I hissed out as I bunched my wedding dress in my hand, making sure to keep the gun pointed at him. "You've barely been here for an hour and you're already pissing me off," he said, starting to get frustrated. Suddenly, I pressed down on the trigger. I watched as the bullet flew past his head, just skimming his ear, exactly how I had expected it to. He didn't flinch. My eyes moved up to meet his. His chest heaved up and down as his fists were clenched together. His jaw was locked as he glared at me, clearly with murder on his mind. My murder.

Beneath His Control
He used to bully her. Now he owns her. When Alessia Romano walked into her new job at De Luca Enterprises, the last face she expected to see was his-Giovanni De Luca, the rich, sadistic bastard who tormented her in college... and the man who now controls her career, her body, and her every breath. Worse? He's not just a billionaire CEO. He's the boss of the Italian Mafia-and he's been waiting for her. Giovanni doesn't just want Alessia under his command-he wants her on her knees, begging, branded, and broken in all the ways only he can deliver. And when she resists, he doesn't fire her. He cages her. The tension is unbearable. The sex? Rough, possessive, and addictive. He spanks. He binds. He whispers filth in Italian while she moans into silk sheets. And despite her defiance, her hate, her fear-her body keeps surrendering. But Alessia is no longer the scared girl from college. She's smarter. Angrier. And dangerously close to falling in love with the devil who's tying her wrists and stealing her soul. In a world of secrets, bullets, and obsession, love isn't safe. It's a weapon.
