Burning in Silence 

"Some flames are meant to destroy, but what if they burn only for you?"

Elena Romano believed in simple things-her students, her books, and the quiet life she had built. But when Xavier Knight, the most feared businessman and mafia leader in the state, steps into her school as the chief guest, her world tilts on its axis.

He is dangerous, powerful, and carries an aura that makes the strongest men shiver. But not her.

He is drawn to her fire. She refuses to be intimidated by his darkness.

When their paths collide, a game of power, obsession, and undeniable attraction begins. But loving a man like Xavier comes with a price-one that could burn her entire world down.

He warned her to stay away.
She dared to get closer.

Now, there's no turning back.

Ruthless Devotion by aurora_rose_aaa

Power. Control. Victory. These are the only things Xavier Sterling has ever cared about. As CEO of a billion-dollar empire, he built his world with an iron will, a sharp mind, and a heart cold enough to freeze anyone who dared get too close. But then she walked in. Rose Delacroix. A woman with fire in her eyes and dreams too big for anyone to crush. She fought her way from nothing, clawing through the ruthless fashion industry, refusing to bow-even to the most powerful man in Eldoria. She should have been just another name, another deal to close. But from the moment she defied him, challenging him with that untamed spirit, Xavier found himself breaking his own rules. Watching her. Protecting her. Wanting her. Even when he knew he shouldn't. But love has no place in their world. Not when enemies lurk in the shadows-waiting to strike. Not when her toxic ex wants her back. Not when betrayal comes from the people she trusts the most. And definitely not when Xavier himself could be the biggest danger of all. When his rivals use Rose as leverage in a high-stakes war, Xavier is forced to make a choice-his empire or the woman who has slowly, dangerously become his weakness. And as the storm rages outside, as the walls close in, he looks her in the eyes and gives her the one choice she never thought she'd have to make: "I can destroy you, or I can love you. Now, the choice is yours." But what he doesn't realize? Rose has never been the kind of woman to be anyone's pawn. And in this game of power, deception, and a love that burns too hot to control... She just might be the one to destroy him first. Are you ready for a love story that doesn't play fair?

Especially not the type of romance that novelist Elisa Gilmore writes about. Stalkers? Bodyguards? Office rivals? Puh-leeze! Determined to prove to her that cheesy tropes aren't the way to a woman's heart, he acts out everything she's written... but will he lose his own heart in the process? 𝗘𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗰𝘁: Enemies to Lovers ✓ Only One Bed ✓ Fake Dating ✓ Forced Proximity ✓ Guy Falls First ✓ Stalking ✓ Boss's Brother ✓ Masked Man ✓ Kidnapping ✓ Trapped in an Elevator ✓ Stranded ✓ + More 𝗘𝘅𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗰𝘁: "This is your chance. Run." Elisa crossed her arms. "No. I'm not scared of him." Darien glared at her impatiently. "Fine. If you won't run from him, then run from me." "Excuse me?" "Here's another one of your tropes: I catch you, I kiss you." "That's not the trope! It's supposed to be 'I catch you, I...'" Elisa cleared her throat and paraphrased, "'...ravish you.'" The corner of his lip quirked. "'Ravish'?" "Shut up, I'm just correcting you." He stepped closer, his eyes burning into her. "Do you want an upgrade? Because I'm down for that if you are." "I don't even want the kiss!" His eyes widened. "Then...run."

Or will the truth of their hearts tear them apart in a world where loyalty, money, and betrayal rule everything? In this dark, thrilling story of passion and survival, there's no room for love.

THE MILLION DOLLAR AFFAIR by ishyplease

"This isn't your game to control," I bit out, stepping back, gripping the doorframe as if it could keep me grounded. He didn't move. Just watched me. Studied me. The weight of his stare was unbearable. "You're playing with fire, Emily." "I know." "And yet, you keep coming closer." Emily never meant to step into his world-a world of wealth, power, and dangerous secrets. But from the moment she crossed paths with Matthias Cambria, everything changed. For Matthias, control is everything. Emily is a complication he never saw coming, a temptation he should resist. But the more he tries to push her away, the more he finds himself dragged into a dangerous game of desire and defiance. Some lines shouldn't be crossed. Some names shouldn't be spoken. And some obsessions are impossible to escape.

Melancholy by justmikame

Elena Romano, a fierce and unyielding lawyer, becomes the only person who can keep Tristan Valenti, a notorious and untouchable mafia kingpin, out of prison. But as she's drawn deeper into his dangerous world, she discovers that the battle isn't just about saving him from the law-it's about saving him from himself. Yet in breaking every rule she's sworn to uphold, Elena risks losing more than her morals-she risks losing her heart to the man who might be beyond redemption. Melancholy - a bittersweet ache that lingers in the soul, like the taste of wine that's both bitter and intoxicating. It's the quiet storm of longing and loss, woven with moments of beauty so fleeting they hurt. Just like what Elena and Tristan want-something so consuming, it borders on destruction. Their love is jagged yet tender, a sanctuary wrapped in shadows where passion wars with despair. It's the sharp edges of love, the bruises of trust, and the haunting allure of wanting what might ruin you, yet never being able to let it go.

Although a lot of inspiration was taken from my life (surprising?), this story and all characters depicted are fictional. I do suffer from generalized anxiety disorder and panic disorder. Those themes were inspired by my experiences. ❌⭕️❌⭕️ This book started as practice and a creative outlet, which is why the plot is... interesting. My goals for this challenge are listed below, let me know if I nailed them! Goals: ✔️ 50,000 words (2,000 - 2,500 per chapter) ✔️ Dabble in psychological themes ✔️ Bring a dark twist to the Mafia Romance genre ✔️ Limit the use of profanities (which this genre is known for :P) ✔️ Finish my first novel

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?
