He was assigned to watch her. Not to want her.
When Adelina Bianchi is moved into the Mancini estate for her protection, she's given no answers-only shadows, silence, and a new set of rules. Especially from Dante Mancini: the family's coldest son, her silent guard, and the one man who never looks twice... until he does.
Dante was never meant to get close. His orders were simple: keep her contained, keep her quiet, and never let her see what's truly at stake. But the more he watches, the harder it becomes to look away, and the closer she gets to unraveling everything he was raised to protect.
In a world ruled by loyalty and legacy, desire is dangerous.
And some lines, once crossed, can never be untangled.

"𝐈 𝐥𝐨𝐯𝐞 𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐥𝐢𝐤𝐞 𝐦𝐲 𝐨𝐰𝐧 𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐭𝐨𝐲." ~ Marriage was never for love-it was for legacy. A strategy. A performance. And for the Lombardis and the Morettis, it was the most calculated, showstopping alliance of the century. Roman Moretti, Don of the La Cosa Nostra, and Angeline Lombardi, only daughter of the French-Italian Mafia Capo, had been betrothed since her birth --matched to unite two empires under one crown. Hidden from the world, Angeline was raised to be the perfect wife. Groomed. Silenced. Controlled. She learned early that one misstep would strip her of everything-including her name. Everyone's first mistake? They underestimated her. Though no one had ever seen her, the world assumed the Lombardi Princess was a polished doll. Quiet. Disposable. Roman saw the marriage as a formality-another calculated step toward total dominance. He had no plans to love her. No plans to live with her. Just a wife on paper, tucked away from him elsewhere, summoned when needed for appearances. But everything changed the moment he saw her walking down the aisle. She was perfection. Untouchable. She would be his ruin, his weakness, his obsession, his motivation. His everything. But what if that had been her plan all along? Not everything buried stays dead. Not every identity is what it seems. In a world where saints become monsters and monsters are worshipped like gods, Angeline must decide what's worth saving: her bloodline, her love, or herself. ~ -HEA -18+ -Romance/mystery/thriller -No Cheating/OWD -DARK ROMANCE "OMYGOSH. This book was immaculate. I could NOT put it down at all. Every chapter was AMAZING, the writing is shakespears work and each chapter made me laugh, smile, cry so much and this whole thing was a rollercoaster of emotions." -@Sunfloweraate8Kumpleto
𝐓𝐖𝐈𝐒𝐓𝐄𝐃 𝐇𝐀𝐓𝐑𝐄𝐃
Twisted Hatred Fallon Gates was born with everything-money, beauty, and a last name that opened every door in the city. When her father steps down, she becomes the youngest female CEO of Gates Enterprises, ready to prove she's more than just another spoiled heiress. But in the world of power and luxury, enemies hide behind perfect smiles-and none are more dangerous than Dante Russo. Dante built his empire from the ground up. Ruthless. Calculating. Untouchable. His company sits right next to hers, and his smirk feels like a challenge she can't ignore. Fallon knows there's something dark pulsing beneath his polished exterior-illegal deals, secret ties, and maybe even blood on his hands. But the closer she gets to exposing him, the more she realizes she might be the one being played. Every move she makes, he's already predicted. Every secret she uncovers ties her tighter to him. And when the line between hatred and hunger starts to blur, Fallon finds herself trapped in a dangerous game where winning could mean losing everything-including her heart. Because in a world built on lies and legacy... Love might be the deadliest sin of all.Kumpleto
Under Your Watch: Bulletproof Lies (On-Going)
He was born into the shadows. She was raised to uncover them. In a world where loyalty is bought with blood and silence is survival, their paths were never meant to cross. He was the quiet, cold son of a mafia family-someone who'd learned early that emotions were weaknesses best buried. She, on the other hand, was everything he wasn't: bright, kind, and fearless, a girl who smiled through the cruelty of others, even when her name was whispered with envy and hate. Her classmates despised her brilliance, mocked her joy, and tore her down in ways that left invisible scars. But while she stood alone against it all, she never knew someone had been watching-someone who made sure every hand raised against her never went unpunished. He protected her from the shadows, fought for her without ever being seen, and somewhere between the silence and violence, something inside him began to change. But time has a way of turning light into distance. Years later, he's the ruthless successor to his family's empire. She's a secret agent, trained to bring down that very same empire. Neither recognizes the other-until a mission gone wrong exposes her, and he takes her captive. Now, behind locked doors and under his watch, lies and truth blur like gunfire in the night. Between the crosshairs of duty and desire, they'll discover that the most dangerous kind of love... is the one you're forbidden to have.
The Vipers Temptation | Completed
After a failed attempt at a relationship, I try to make it on my own. However, I end up with a new neighbor who exudes charm, danger, and sexual energy as if it's a job. To make matters worse, I find myself semi-kidnapped by the same dangerous, foul-mouthed, rude neighbor who turns out to be a part of the Italian Mafia. Now, I'm stuck riding shotgun while being chased by gun-wielding maniacs on our way to someplace "safe." I'm beginning to think this is my new reality. *Trigger Warning* Graphic violence, explicit mature scenes, and non-consensual touching (not from the main love interest).Kumpleto

Dante Mancini is a cold, obsessive mafia don who refuses to let her slip through his fingers. He saves her life-only to cage her in his estate, in his bedroom, and eventually, in his heart. She's soft where he's sharp, fragile where he's cruel. But some cages feel safer than freedom... and some love stories begin with captivity. Dark. Addictive. Unforgettable. This is a love story twisted by pain and healed by obsession.Kumpleto

She always knew she was different. He never understood why the world rejected him.

Bruised | Twisted Devotion
She was broken. He was vengeance. Together, they might set the world on fire. Cassie thought love would save her. Instead, it trapped her-bruises hidden under apologies, silence where safety should've been. Then came Dante Navarro. Cold. Dangerous. Merciless. He didn't save her. He stole her. What started as revenge turns into something darker, something electric-something Cassie swore she'd never feel again. Because Cassie's done waiting for a hero. And Dante? He doesn't promise control. He promises he'll never hurt her like Jake- but he'll burn the world to ash before he lets anyone else try.Kumpleto

There's danger in his touch, and desire in his silence. The way he looks at you feels like he's judging whether you're worth the risk. To be near him is to feel alive and yet utterly exposed. To him, Alliances are temporary, enemies are tools, and desire is as lethal as his ambition. Vincent Steel might be the predator you trust. He meticulous treates the world like his chessboard.

Gentle for her.
"No one speaks to me the way you have been lately" He warned, his eyes trained on mine. "What are you going to do, kill me?" I answered back, my gaze focused only on his kissable full lips. "Much worse." I didn't have time to comprehend anything before he gripped my hips and slammed me down onto the bed, making my breath hitch. My hair had covered my face from the impact, very quickly I pushed it out of my way when Luca hovered over my body, his hands holding him up on each side of me. "Wha-" He shut me up by placing his lips on mine, making my entire insides melt.
