Samone didn't come to Brooklyn for a life of crime; she came for an architecture degree and a chance at something better. Working double shifts at Millie's Diner to survive the crushing cost of tuition, she is just another face in the snow until Carmine walks in. Wrapped in expensive wool and radiating an unnerving, dangerous confidence, he offers her everything she's ever wanted: a way out.
From the grey, frozen sidewalks of Brooklyn to the neon-soaked, high-stakes sprawl of Las Vegas, Samone is swept into a gilded existence of private jets, diamonds, and untouchable luxury. But in a city built on losing, the biggest bet Samone ever made was on the man beside her. As the shine wears off, she discovers that Carmine's promise of the American Dream is a cage. Beneath the glamour and the smooth words lies a darker reality where the cost of her life is a price she may not be able to pay.
Inspired by the haunting, sweet-yet-bitter legacy of Lana Del Rey's "Cinnamon Girl," this is a story of love, obsession, and the thin line between a dream and a nightmare.

Carmine leaned forward and gave Samone his undivided attention, ignoring his cigarette and the loud men at the bar who cheered at the TV.
"What are the odds of this?" He asked, motioning between the two of them. "What are the odds of me coming to Brooklyn and finding you? Won't you take a chance? You could have everything you've ever dreamed of if you were mine."

"Id suggest watching the attitude."He warns . I'm not denying another warning for fucks sake. "You know who you're with, Alexandra. Ill fuck you anywhere and anytime without caring of consequences." He says. I believe him. He takes my hand and brings it to his crotch area where its basically rock solid and fucking huge for that matter. "You feel this? You feel me? This is what it feels like every second I see your face so when I say don't tease me, don't do it thinking I won't fuck you into an abyss because it already takes me an insane amount of self control to not do it on a regular basis. Do you understand?" I nod my head again moving my hand up to his abdomen. "Good." He says. Start: August 14 2022Lengkap

Loving Luca
Editing -------- Highest Ranks- 1# Mafia 1#hostage 1#complete 1#good girl 1#italian 2#opposites 3#Mature 4#morallygrey Rosie has always been independent, caring, loyal, polite, but most of all, lonely. Growing up without a family she learnt the hard way that love was most of all, a fairytale, only found in worn books and illogical movies, but that never stopped her from feeling everything so deeply, daydreaming and romanticising a life that's never truly been hers. All she's ever wanted was a little bit of love. Will moving into the busy streets of Brooklyn to get away from the loneliness she's always felt and potentially find the boring love she wants so badly be the easiest choice she ever makes? Probably, and quite possibly...the worst... Now Rosie will learn the hard way that sometimes when a 6'4ft man with piercing green eyes, the mouth of a sailor and an obviously not so alluring demeanour tells you to walk the other way, just walk the other fucking way...Lengkap
Obsession.
If you like fantasy/romance you should try my story The Flower Longed Death. It is written a LOT better than this one is! -------------------------- "You must've got the wrong impression if you keep expecting to get away with shit like this, so let me make things clear," He says with a calm smile. He moves his face closer to mine, losing the lighthearted grin that had previously cooled my nerves. I get a better look at the scar across the bridge of his nose, and the vague one X'ed onto his lips. Now I want them even more. -------------------------- Eighteen year old Mileva never thought her past would catch up to her after leaving years ago to live in New York City. She didn't think she wanted it to. However, she also didn't think she would cross paths with a guy like Valen, the Italian Mafia's heir. He's only twenty three, but he's somehow the most attractive and intimidating man she has ever met, let alone heard of. Mileva battles her anxiety adjusting to this new life of hers, while Valen is just getting comfortable with his new obsession. -------------------------- Word count: 110,000 There is a lot of graphic content, so please read carefully! List of specific warnings can be found in the introduction. The writing gets better as the story progresses, I promise.Lengkap
The Vipers Temptation | Completed
After a failed attempt at a relationship, I try to make it on my own. However, I end up with a new neighbor who exudes charm, danger, and sexual energy as if it's a job. To make matters worse, I find myself semi-kidnapped by the same dangerous, foul-mouthed, rude neighbor who turns out to be a part of the Italian Mafia. Now, I'm stuck riding shotgun while being chased by gun-wielding maniacs on our way to someplace "safe." I'm beginning to think this is my new reality. *Trigger Warning* Graphic violence, explicit mature scenes, and non-consensual touching (not from the main love interest).Lengkap
Eve Black
Meet Eve Black: I decided to flirt with the guy that did it, "Heyyyy cutie," I say with a wink. "Hey, pretty lady," he says in a gross seductive tone. I can't deny that he is very handsome. He had piercing green eyes that would make any girl go weak at the knees. But I am not any girl. "Can I ask you something?" before he could respond I continue, "Why did you try to drug me?" He looks shocked as my tone went from flirtatious to serious in a matter of two seconds. "Well, I have no idea what you are talking about," he says while slightly panicking. I stand up, "Well if you don't know what I am talking about then why don't you take a sip of my drink?" a few heads turned our way and start watching. "N-no I am good," he stammers confirming that he did in fact try to drug me as I suspected. "You know what, I don't give a damn what you say you 'don't know anything about' because I know what you tried to do to me." I pick up my drink and smash the glass on his head. I watch as the pink drink that was in the glass stains his white button-up collar shirt and his face turns red with anger and embarrassment. As I am walking out I yell back, "You know damn well what you did too." I flip him the bird and I leave the bar and Hazel and all her friends behind. *** Book Cover done by @_navyblueee_Lengkap

This is book two in the Lost&Found Series but can be read as a stand alone. *** I heard the bag drop on the table before he grabbed my elbow and spun me around. His hand cupped my chin as he made me look in his eyes. "So much anger, piccola raggazza." he said as his eyes darted back and forth between mine. My lips parted as I looked in his grey orbs which he inherited from his father. Sharp, defined jaw and pointy noise with his upper lip thin and bottom, thick. "I'm not angry at you. Your presence and absence are of little importance to me." I stated and looked away. "You grew up in my arms, I know you like the back of my hand." he told as his thumb applied pressure on my jaw to tilt my face towards his. I blinked and looked at him blankly not wanting to give away the fact that I was literally melting in his arms like a puddle. "You're not worthy of my any emotion or feeling. You're mistaken if you think I care." I stated in a matter of factly tone. *** Returning home after four years, Sylvia Mancini will encounter a lot more than she has anticipated.
