Kali Orsini's first day as QA tech team manager doesn't go unnoticed. Eros Razin's gaze trails her across the conference room as she introduces herself to the team-posture poised, voice smooth like it was carved from calm thunder. He's seen ambitious types try to win him over before, but there's something about her quiet certainty that needles under his skin. And he doesn't like being rattled. After the meeting, Eros approaches her, his expression unreadable. "You didn't mention your... unorthodox methods in the interview." His voice is cool, but edged. Watching her. Kali glances up from her tablet, entirely unbothered. "Didn't think I had to. I figured results speak louder than routines." "Results only matter if you can sustain them," he replies, stepping closer. There's a low rumble in his tone, tension crackling in the few inches between them. She meets his stare head-on, the faintest smirk tugging at her lips. "And control only matters if it doesn't choke progress, Eros," she counters, his name sliding from her tongue like a dare. Silence coils between them for a beat. He wasn't expecting pushback-not this early, not like this-but it doesn't annoy him. It intrigues him. "Careful, Wildfire," he says finally, a flicker of amusement in his voice as he names her. "You might burn too fast in here." Kali tilts her head, unfazed. "Then try not to get scorched, Razin." He takes a step back, eyes lingering. She's not going to make this easy for him. But maybe that's exactly what he wants.

BOOK 1 : MAFIA ROMANCE #1stStory She swore to hate him- He swore to own her- "Marriage doesn't work like this," she hissed, breath shaky. His lips curved into a dark smile. "In my world, marriage works however I want. Either you marry me, or I'll ruin you first-and still make you mine." Her palm cracked across his cheek. "Shut up, bastard!" He stilled, slowly touching the sting she left behind. His eyes burned with something deadly-and hungry. "You shouldn't have done that," he whispered. "Now you'll never get rid of me." She stumbled back to the window. "I'll jump! I'll end it here!" "Jump," he said smoothly, almost amused. "I'll catch you in the air. I'll follow you to hell if I have to. Baby, you don't escape me-not in this life, not the next." Her body trembled on the ledge. "I'm serious." He moved behind her, wrapping her waist in a bruising grip. His breath scorched her skin as his mouth pressed cagainst her neck. "So am I. If you jump, I'll fall with you. Heaven, hell, doesn't matter-" his lips dragged along her throat, possessive and cruel, "-you'll still be mine before we hit the ground." ♧‒°●●°‒♧ #1 femaledoctor #1 intenseromance #1 loveandpower #1 Indian setting #1 Citylife #1 Craziness
