She grew up with lies.
He grew up with violence.
They had no childhood, only scars.

Alys thought she'd escaped hell-a murdered father, a broken mother, a life built on fear. Today, she tries to remain invisible, to forget.

When she crosses paths with Hunter, he's a man broken by a tragic past. The son of a mafia family, he witnessed his father murdered before his eyes when he was only 15. Since that day, he's hunted down those responsible, one by one. He's relentless, cold, and terrifying, but deep down, he's filled with an immense emptiness. When he crosses paths with Alys, a woman who seems somehow connected to those he's hunting, he finds himself trapped. His mission of revenge turns into an inner struggle, between anger and the attraction he feels for her.

Between secrets, violence, and broken loyalties, their attraction becomes a toxic obsession. An impossible bond between two survivors of a ruined empire.

And in the mafia, love isn't a weakness... it's a debt to be paid.

(COMPLETED) BOOK TRAILER IN CHAP. 1!!! I had just turned 19 and was about to graduate high school, entering into an amazing university. Surrounded by plenty of friends, I had such a bright future ahead of me. Everything changed when I met the devil named Eric. Disguised as an angel, I was pulled into his dangerous world. Eric was one of the most deadly, viperous, and wicked mafia leaders. His name haunted his victims heads. He was every bit of dangerous as beautiful, someone so perfect only existed in my wildest dreams. He was everything a girl could ask for. Or so he perceived it to be. . . Blinded from the start in his ethereal world, soon I realize that it was all merely just a mask. And what lies beneath the mask, was far more sinister. *** WARNING: This story contains violence and mature scenes. Read at your own risk. *** I pulled away, with some difficulty from his tight hold. "I need to go, I can't stay." It didn't change anything for him, he continued to kiss my neck as if I had never spoken. That's when his hand slipped underneath my volleyball spandex. I gasped out, covering my mouth as I shut my eyes. "I know you want to stay, so stay. I'll make you feel better than any high school guy ever could." Eric sexily purred in my ear. His fingers found the weakness between my legs, and my hands clamped onto the back of his neck as his kisses nuzzled on my neck. I leaned my head back, taking in sharp breaths as his fingers felt inside me. He was so good at everything he did, I was learning from what seemed a professional. After taking another brief look at the clock, I decided to take the risk. After all, an adventure is much more fun when it's dangerous. Or so I'm hoping, I never really had the guts to do anything mischievous before. *** #1 in Romance 7/22/18 His Obsession. Copyright © 2018. All Rights Reserved.

Mia Brown believed she had her heart safely guarded, wrapped tight under layers of resilience. Life had taught her that trusting too deeply could lead to heartbreak, and dreams didn't always come true. She knew it was safer to rely on herself, to focus on her work and keep her emotions locked away. But a quiet longing stirred beneath her resolve, whispering dreams of a love so deep and true that it would feel like home. And then, there was Alex Walker. From the moment their paths crossed, something shifted in Mia-a warmth, a spark she couldn't ignore. Alex was magnetic yet grounded, a man of strength and subtle tenderness, with eyes that seemed to see into the guarded corners of her heart. He had a way of challenging her walls with every smile, every unspoken word, breaking down the defenses she'd built over time. Mia didn't believe in fairy tales, and yet, as she looked out into the future, there was a flicker of hope, fragile yet undeniable, that maybe she had found something real. Something she hadn't known she'd been searching for. But what if love was more than a feeling? What if it required trust, patience, and a vulnerability she had never allowed herself? Mia's journey would ask her to let go, to be open, to choose love even when it felt uncertain. And in the quiet moments, as she dared to hope, a single, fervent thought lingered in her mind: Could he be mine? ꧁༒☬ ʙᴇ ᴍɪɴᴇ ☬༒꧂ 𝐓𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐛𝐨𝐨𝐤 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐬 𝐞𝐱𝐩𝐥𝐢𝐜𝐭 𝐥𝐚𝐠𝐮𝐚𝐠𝐞, 𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐭, 𝐯𝐢𝐨𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞.

She was born in a house that called itself noble - But behind those iron gates, she lived in a private hell. Tormented by her father, a tyrant cloaked in wealth and cruelty, she was imprisoned in silence while her mother withered in shadows. One night, they escaped - bloodied, broken, but alive. "All thanks to her uncle, whom she connected with during their desperate escape , the only man she ever truly respected, the only soul who reached out with love when the world had offered her nothing but chains." Under his protection, she rebuilt herself. Trained by devils. Hardened by trauma. She became a name the underworld feared: a devil draped in elegance, with eyes sharp as blades and a soul long frozen. But even devils can fall in love. It happened in an instant - a single photograph. Her uncle's son. A man she had never met, but whose eyes spoke of storms and softness. From that moment on, her heart belonged to him. Silently. Fiercely. Eternally. She watched over him from the shadows. Even as he married another, she remained hidden - protecting his world, never daring to intrude. She could have told her mother. She could have told her uncle - who would've welcomed her with open arms. But she chose silence, not because her love was weak... but because it was real. Then came the war. A war that tore their family apart - a war ignited by the same man who once tortured her. In a storm of blood and vengeance, she gave her life to save the very people she had once sworn to protect. But death was not the end. She was reborn - with every memory, every scar, and every beat of love still etched in her soul.

26 parts Complete Mature
VIOLENCE,VERY MATURE CONTENT 18+ Bella - " Please leave me sir i am a very simple girl, i am not your type neither i am of your use, you will get any girl i be..... Michael - "don't push me baby, it will go in vein" - i opened the drawer simultaneously grabbing her hands and pulled a handcuff set from it. I cuffed her hands each side on the bedpost. Bella - "what why are you caging me .... Aahh what are you doing leave me for god sake... " - i started crying badly and was flinching whenever he tried to touch me. Michael - "now look at yourself, you look so beautiful tied up , in a helpless state, I CAN DO ANYTHING I WANT, ANYWHERE I WANT WITH YOU" nowadays you will observe people with no obsession or no possessiveness for their lover or partner which is quite boring. Being possessive and obsessed with your partner adds more power and seriousness in the essence of love and this quote signifies my thought perfectly that "everything is fair in love and war". ENJOY the story of two people very opposite to each other where Michael Romano is ruthless and a cruel king of powerful Mafia Empire who have only seen gore and bloodshed in his life, he inflicts pain in a sense where you cant even imagine. On the other side a girl Bella Mathews with a very simple yet difficult lifestyle where she tries to earn for her family with handwork and wisdom. things will take turn when she will be kidnapped and ruined in the clutches of Michael.
