For the first time in a long time, I let someone in. I dropped the walls, tore open the past, and gave her every piece of me-no more lies, no more masks. I thought honesty would bring us closer. I thought she was different. But I was wrong. I gave her my secrets... and she used them to cut me the deepest. Trust was a risk I was willing to take. Betrayal was a price I never expected to pay.
I never wanted to hurt him. But I was bound by loyalties he could never understand-promises made in blood, debts I couldn't ignore. I was caught between two worlds, and no matter what choice I made, someone would bleed. So I did what I had to. I broke his trust. Not because I wanted to... but because I had no other option. He gave me his truth. And I became the lie he'll never forgive.

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*
Bound By His Shadow ( The Vincolo Series - Season 1)
I never believed in MONSTERS until I met him. Men like him? Oh, they don't walk in the light. Nobody says their names out loud, their DEEDS aren't recorded, but you'll see their HANDIWORK everywhere if you know where to look. It all started that one night. At the time, it seemed like nothing, just another evening. Little did I know, that was the night everything would change. The first time I stumbled into his DOMAIN was purely by accident, I had no clue what I was walking into. But the second time? That was different. I went there on purpose, driven by a job. Nothing personal, just BUSSINESS, or so I thought. Something I could easily leave behind when it was all done. Oh, how naive I was! His world isn't one you can just wander in and out of without a scratch. It's a place built on unspoken agreements, lies that dig deep, and truths too dangerous for most to handle. Every moment spent there pulls me further into his gravity. I thought I could maintain my distance, but somehow, I found myself getting closer to him,much closer than I ever planned or wanted. Close enough to almost forget what he really is. And that's the trouble because deep down, I still know how it ends. If he ever figured out why I'm really here, he wouldn't hesitate to put a bullet through my head. Walk away now while I can? I wish! Somewhere along this twisted path, with fate and its cruel jokes about CONTROL and POWER over others' lives, an ILLUSION crept into my mind. That maybe, just maybe, I had control over everything. That I was PLAYING the game. But no, not once was I ever the PLAYER. Just a PAWN in this bloody game of BLOOD & THRONE !! ____________________ ⚠️ WARNING :- THIS BOOK CONTAINS MATURE THEMES AND STRONG LANGUAGE.
A Thread Of Broken Promises
𝐒𝐀𝐀𝐍𝐕𝐈 𝐊𝐀𝐏𝐎𝐎𝐑 A simple girl in her twenties. An event manager by passion, though her parents never truly supported her dreams. As the middle child, she grew up in the shadows of neglect, surviving on silent compromises and unspoken loneliness. Yet despite everything, she believed in love. Not the fairytale kind. Just the kind where someone finally chose her. But fate had cruelty stitched into its hands. One scandal. One marriage. And suddenly she became the wife of her best friend's elder brother... a man who looked at her like she was the ruin of his entire existence. The marriage she once dreamed of turned into a cage lined with silence, hatred, and broken promises.

Until the girl he never wanted became the only one capable of making him feel. But love, when poisoned by betrayal, becomes something far more dangerous than hatred. It becomes destruction. Revenge. A wound so deep that even love starts tasting like poison. 👑 A ruthless CEO who can't let go. 🔥 Enemies-to-lovers. Forced marriage. Royal secrets.

Sweet Riddle
In our world, emotions are a weakness. A liability. A mistake. I learned that lesson young, watching my father rule with an iron fist, his heart nothing more than a rumor. I swore I'd never fall into the same trap-never let a woman tear me apart. And yet, here I am, standing at the altar, binding myself to a woman I barely know. A woman who despises me as much as I refuse to care for her. A contract. A deal. A promise sealed in blood. She is Katya Salifov-fierce, beautiful, and the daughter of my family's sworn enemy. And I am Ivan Yozhikov-heir to an empire built on violence, betrayal, and fear. This marriage isn't about love. It's about power. Control. Survival. But no matter how much I lock my heart away, something about her chips at the ice in my veins. A fire in her eyes that tempts me to break my own rules. And in this life, temptation is just another word for destruction. Welcome to our world. Where vows are made in blood, love is a dangerous game, and betrayal is the only truth.Complete
