In a world shrouded in deception and hidden dangers, a young woman's struggle for freedom brings her into the orbit of two men who are bound by their own sense of duty and love. Forced into hiding and living under a new identity, she finds protection in the arms of Ace and Marco, whose commitment to her safety is unwavering.

When her past threatens to resurface with the return of a ruthless figure, their fragile sanctuary is put to the ultimate test. The shadowy figure's cruel legacy and the secrets he holds force them into a dangerous confrontation, challenging their resolve and their love for her. The tension heightens as they are driven to confront the nightmares of the past and the looming threat of the future.

As the stakes rise, and with a life-altering revelation at the heart of their struggle, their bonds are tested in ways they never anticipated. The intersection of love, duty, and survival creates a storm that they must weather together. Their fight for freedom is not just for her but for their own redemption.

"Beneath the Surface" is a powerful tale of courage, love, and the quest for truth, where the boundaries of loyalty are pushed and the cost of freedom is immeasurable.

Mafia's Revenge (Editing) by LihleWriter
6 parts Ongoing Mature
When Alessandro, the mafia leader, had his heart shattered by an older woman, he sealed it away, and swore he would never be fooled by an immature emotion like love. One cannot play with a dangerous man's emotions and get away with it. When Alessandro learns that his heartbreaker has given birth, he kidnaps the baby shortly after its birth. At first, he meant to brutally murder the child, but he didn't have the heart to kill the human who was the size of his hand. The fact that he did not kill the infant did not imply that he returned it; instead, Alessandro raised it. As Lily grew older and more mature, her love for Alessandro started to take a romantic turn. She was hankering after Alessandro's tenderness and touches, but the mafia leader kept turning her down. Lily didn't lack the ability to fight for what she wanted just because she was an innocent girl. In the end, she was able to get Alessandro above her-between her legs, to be exact-and even win his love. Poor thing, by the time she discovered the skeleton of the man she thought she knew, it was too late. The half-truth she discovered broke her apart, forcing her to choose between forgiving Alessandro and letting go of everything or watch the man she loves die. Lily initially picked the second option, but she had already allowed Alessandro to own her emotions in the same way that he had her body, so letting go proved impossible. As she battles to reunite with the guy her heart aches for, she ultimately made the decision to give up the innocent version of herself and transform into the vicious female counterpart of her lover.
