Fangs and Firearms by the_psalmiz

In the brutal world of the Italian Mafia, Alessandro De Luca is feared by all. Cold, ruthless, and untouchable, he rules with an iron fist-both as a Mafia lord and as something far more dangerous lurking beneath the surface. A beast hidden in the shadows. A predator disguised as a man. But when a fragile, exhausted maid from a rival Mafia family collapses at his feet, he makes a decision that shocks even himself. He saves her. She doesn't know who he is. She doesn't know what he is. And as she finds herself entangled in his deadly world, the lines between fear and desire begin to blur. He is cruel yet protective, distant yet possessive. A man who never lets anyone close, yet refuses to let her go. But secrets can only stay buried for so long. When she finally discovers the monster within him, will she run... or will she surrender to the darkness? A slow-burn Mafia x Werewolf romance filled with danger, obsession, and a love that was never meant to survive.

Fueled by relentless ambition, his vision of control extends beyond wealth and power, into the realm of human lives.

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.
