Dual P.O.V.
Natasha Miller had lived her entire life in the small town of Tallulah Falls, Georgia. She had big dreams of making it in the big city, so right after graduating college, she packed her bags and moved to New York City. The bright lights and bustling streets were a huge culture shock for the small-town girl.
After struggling to make ends meet with her job as a waitress, Natasha decided to go out one night and let loose. She ended up at a trendy bar in Little Italy called The Vino Rosso. As she sipped her glass of red wine at the bar, a handsome, well-dressed man sat down next to her. His name was Christian Lovius.
Over the next few months, Natasha and Christian's relationship intensified. He showed her a lavish lifestyle she had never experienced before - fancy restaurants, penthouse apartments, and expensive gifts. She was falling hard, despite the little voice in her head warning her that he might be too good to be true.
Eventually, she learned about his family ties to the mob. She confronted him about it, and he confessed the truth, begging her to understand and not leave him. Against her better judgment, Natasha's heart won out, and she stood by his side.
After a climactic conflict, Christian was forced to leave the mob behind to be with Natasha. The two decided to start fresh somewhere far away, using Christian's secret fortune to live a peaceful life together - the Georgia peach and the former mafia prince.

Code of Blood
Pain comes in many forms. Heartbreak, headaches, broken bones, and that quiet, soul-splitting kind that doesn't leave bruises. But the kind of pain I've witnessed goes beyond all that. Have you ever heard a man scream, really scream, as he's being beaten and his fingers broken one by one? I have. And as twisted as it might sound, in that moment, it felt... satisfying.

Someone has to be the shadow in the corner, the final judgment behind a red-drenched smile. That someone is me. Reanne Anderson. Twenty-four. Assassin for the Anderson family. Secret hacker behind their impenetrable systems but to most, I'm the Red Lady. I respect boundaries until someone crosses mine.

Newly crowned Don of the Russo family after his father was butchered by the Russian mafia. Lost his mother in the same bloodbath. He's cold, calculated and ruthless.

But sometimes, even in the darkest corners of the world, two dark souls might just bleed for each other.Complete
BROKEN VOW
I stop at the last room, stare at the number on the door and crosscheck it with the one with me. I stuffed the paper away and ready myself for what lies behind the closed door. I lean on the door for a while and could hear voices but were incoherent. I tap twice on the door and the voices stopped. I repeated the process and received a response that sounded more like Hillary's voice. "Who is it?" He asked from behind the door. I knocked back instead, I didn't trust myself to sound differently. The door flew open in a second and I quickly wedge the door with my leg to prevent him from shutting it on my face. His face went pale on seeing me. I scanned him from head to toe. He was only in his brief. He tried blocking my view with his body but I push him aside forcefully. "Who is at the door, love?" Love? What a joke! Both our eyes snapped in the direction of the voice. I thought I heard my heart leap but not for joy, in pains. It was as though a knife was scrolled into my chest. "This is your Ghana?" I scoffed and walked past him in the direction of the voice, "I was at the door" I said catching her attention... • • • • • A charming couple (Nick and Lauren ) had to navigate their way out of a storming marriage that was once cemented by love. A single mistake is about to pull the string of their marriage apart. °°°°Complete
