The Sirens Game
"I hated being called his Rosa. Every man that had me for a night was sure to remind me that I wasn't human anymore. I wasn't a person anymore. I mean how could I be? A person has a soul, and by that time I had already gave it up to the devil." Jade explains her voice cold and emotionlessly. "It's either that or they take your soul anyway along with your virginity, happiness, innocence, and everything that made you, you. They strip you until you're nothing but just a body to use." Iris words fill the room as she makes her way on the other side of Jade. "They break you." A girl with brown hair says softly and put eyes snap to her. "They may do every single disgusting you can imagine to you." I state looking in her eyes. "And they may have beat you to a point where you are unrecognizable." Iris chimes in. "But I swear to God himself they can never ever break you." Jade states her voice fueling strength. Monsters attracts monsters. Madness attracts mayhem. Broken attracts broken. Jade, Iris, and Scarlett aka The Sirens. The mafia world knows about them. You call them when you want a crime family wiped off the earth. You call them when you want an untouchable person dead. You call them when you want a missing girl found. When they get the call from the ruthless Don Antonio Donatello, they're interests peaks. Taking his offer to find his sister is more than just a regular mission. It's a link to their past, a link to their creator, their monster; Romano DeSantiago. The Sirens will stop at nothing to get their revenge and to kill him for everything that he's done. Throughout their mission, trust will be tested, loyalty will become a choice, and love will be a sacrifice. It's a game of life and death. It's the Sirens game after all.

His FireLily - (Shadowed Secrets #2)
Carissa Belfiore's mission was simple; hunt down the man terrorising her city and burn his syndicate's web of deceptions to the ground. The catch though? She must work together with the devil in disguise. 𐀔𐀔𐀔 Four months after the trail went dark, Cara and her team gain a second chance at retribution, at tracking down the man responsible for the mysterious chain of disappearances plaguing the streets of her town. Retribution, though, comes at a cost. Missing people and stolen identities unsolved, Cara's boss presents to her with a new ultimatum. She must pursue this mission with Asrea's top (infuriating) agent or lose the rights to the case. With no other choice, Cara must learn to thread the thin line of peace with the devil disguised as a federal agent, one who has little belief in patience and even less so for mistakes. Much like everything else though, it was easier said than done. As the two of them begin to dismantle the empire brick by brick, Cara finds herself pulling at loose strings tying the pieces of the missing puzzles connecting her past to her present. Strings, she soon realises, had been buried by the hands of someone desperately trying to keep her from finding out the truth. A truth that might just break her. No retrogrades, no reversals, and no unknowing the known. If only she could've done it alone, for even the devil must be paid his dues. The devil whose icy, blue eyes never fail to see through every shield and every shadow she'd built around her heart, the very shadows that seem to calm within his presence. The man whose icy rage threatens to thaw her blazing heart. 𐀔𐀔𐀔 First Draft Completed on 12/1/2025 Completed on 12/3/2025Concluida
