Inferno of Sin by fearamzi

Introduction In the shadows of power and privilege, desire becomes a dangerous game. Alessandra Vittori had built her life on control-of her image, her career, and her emotions. As Italy's most sought-after publicist, she was untouchable, crafting legends and salvaging reputations with a single stroke of her brilliance. But when she steps into the orbit of Vincenzo DeLuca, the enigmatic heir to a ruthless mafia dynasty, her carefully curated world begins to unravel. Vincenzo is no ordinary man. Cold, calculating, and untouchable, he is a predator in a tailored suit, with the power to shape the world-and destroy anyone who defies him. Drawn to Alessandra's fire and resistance, he sees in her a challenge, an opportunity to bend the unbendable. For Alessandra, he represents everything she swore to avoid: chaos, danger, and an unrelenting pull she can't escape. Their worlds collide in a dark dance of seduction, where every touch blurs the lines between obsession and surrender, between love and control. In the twisted corridors of power, they must navigate the thin line between betrayal and trust, even as the stakes grow higher-and deadlier. In the end, who will dominate, and who will be consumed by the shadows?

To Wish is to Sin by pleaseimastar333

Amara has lived her whole life under the shadow of the mafia, raised to be the perfect heir to her father's ruthless empire. Trained from a young age, she learned the deadly skills needed to survive in a world built on power, loyalty, and secrecy. No one outside her father's mafia knows who she truly is, and that's the way it's always been. Lucien, the man who trained her and works by her side, has always been a constant in her life-a skilled, reliable partner who makes every mission possible. Their relationship is built on professionalism, but there's always been something else simmering beneath the surface. It's playful, dangerous, and forbidden-nothing more, nothing less. At least, that's what Amara tells herself. But when Harry Styles, a member of a rival mafia, enters the picture, everything changes. He's not just another threat to the family business-he's a force she can't ignore. Charismatic, calculating, and dangerously charming, Harry draws Amara into a game where the stakes are higher than she ever imagined. Torn between her loyalty to her father, the life she's been raised for, and the magnetic pull Harry has on her, Amara is faced with a choice that could unravel everything she's worked for. As the tension between the mafia families escalates, Amara's world is forced to collide with Harry's. But when a connection that was never meant to happen turns into something far more dangerous, Amara finds herself questioning everything-her loyalty, her family, and the one man who could destroy it all.
