Carmen's an angel. She's sweet, her nanny raised her well. Dark hair, golden skin, eyes like the forest and freckles like splattered ink paint her face.
Mateo seems to be born cold. He's not social, keeps to himself. He's incredibly intelligent, and finds out about his father way too soon.
One leaves. She grows old. One stays. He grows old. One turns into the adult people expected. One changes completely. Then their story starts again, only now overpowered by ignorance

EL Cuervo : King of Crows
At nine years old, Mateo Salazar watched his family die murdered by the Sons of Hell, their laughter echoing through the blood-soaked walls of his childhood home. Hidden behind a banister, he learned the world's cruelest truth: mercy doesn't exist. Now twenty-five, the world knows him as El Cuervo the ruthless leader of Cartel de la Luna Roja, a name whispered in fear from Mexico to Miami. He built his empire on silence, control, and blood, ruling like a ghost no one dares to defy. Every life he takes feeds the emptiness carved into him long ago. But everything changes the night one girl's desperate pleading stops him cold. She's not supposed to matter. She's just another casualty of his world until her terror awakens something buried beneath his scars. What begins as cruelty turns into obsession, and what should have been another nameless death becomes the one thing that could either redeem him or destroy him. Under the red moon, the king of crows finally learns that even monsters can bleed.![Heart of Ruin - Stone and Fire #3 [17+]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/382983862-256-k806002.jpg)
Heart of Ruin - Stone and Fire #3 [17+]
They tell me love is a pretty lie. A cruel deception. I wouldn't know-I've never been given the chance to believe in it. A daughter of the Cosa Nostra, passed from one husband to the next like a prized possession, I have learned one thing: a woman's value is measured in obedience. But then I come back, and he's there. Enzo Mancini. Silent. Ruthless. Untouchable. Except... I have touched him. Once, before the lies. Before the fire. Before he left me with nothing but ghosts of a boy who used to stare at me like I was his only sin. Now, he looks at me like I'm his reckoning. Like he's been starving. Like he'll ruin me all over again. The worst part? I want him to. Enzo Mancini She was never supposed to know the truth of that night. The blood on my hands. The fact that I let her believe I was the monster. I told myself I could let her go. That I could watch her slip through my fingers, fall into the hands of men who never deserved her. And I did. She doesn't know what I've done for her. How many bodies I've buried. How many sins I've committed in her name. She's everything I should stay away from. Soft where I am hard. Chaos where I am order. A temptation so dangerous, it should be a death sentence. But I can't stop. I can't stop watching her, wanting her, losing sleep over the way she lingers like a curse in the nightmares she inhabits. She calls me heartless, and like everyone, I let her believe it. She doesn't know that every step she takes away from me is another step toward a man who won't live long enough to touch what's mine. I saved her from the fire long ago, the same one I caused. And now, the flames are swallowing me whole. 17+ Mafia Dark Romance *Standalone*
