Adriana Mancini

I was raised to bite, not bow.
So when they told me I was to marry Nikolas Volkov-heir to the Bratva, enemy to my blood-I didn't cry, I laughed.
They thought they could tame me with diamonds and alliances.
And for the first time in my life, I realized I didn't have a choice.
As for him..
It's the eyes that speak to me. Blank but compulsive with secrets, empty yet dominating with control.
Like stone.
I wonder, is his heart made of it too?


Nikolas Volkov

After a bloody feud with the Cosa Nostra, I'm forced into an arranged marriage-to the one woman I can't control.
Adriana Mancini.
A hurricane in stilettos with venom in her smile.
She tests my patience, taunts my power, and tempts my darkness.
She thinks I won't ruin her just because she wears my ring.
But this marriage was never meant to be peaceful.
It was built for war.

(BOOK 1 OF MAFIA LOVE SERIES) [COMPLETED & EDITING] * "Arie," he whispered, his smile dropping as he closed the distance between us. "I'm sor..." My right hand met his left cheek brutally, stopping all that he had to say. "How dare you?" I hissed, landing another smack on the same spot. "How could you do this to me?" I raised my hand up again to place another one, but he caught my wrist before I could do so. "Plan your next move very carefully," he spoke in a low, belligerent tone tightening his grip on my wrist, daring me to slap him again. Pain jolted from the area, forcing tears to sting at the corner of my eyes. "Or what?" I scowled at him. "You don't want to find out." He took a step closer, staring into my eyes. "And don't tempt me!" * Today was the day it all started. Everything began to fall apart. It twisted me, threw me against the wall, and ripped my sanity and innocence to shreds. I never thought I'd go through it, but there I was in the middle of it all.

College? No, this was paradise. Three years filled with partying, not so secret underground drug-deals, and hot-headed men sliding into beds like snakes with no self-control. Things were different now. I wasn't that perfect, frill-wearing angel Mama thought would walk into the house ring-beared. So many things had changed, except for one. Him. He was a disease, one I couldn't get rid of no matter how hard I tried. Everytime he's near, I feel myself turn into something I've never seen before. Like there's something under my skin only he is capable of bringing out. He's manipulative, twisted, and completely wrong in every way. I hate him. Yet every night, from miles away, I find him in my dreams. Mikhail Volkov Fuck the patriarchy. Better yet, fuck everything and everyone. It was a game of cat and mouse, me chasing victories every single day. The Bratva's constant want for war was what kept the fuel in my blood, burning up into flames whenever my knuckles made contact with another opponent. In the end, I'm always the one left standing. This fire in my bones, I feel it burst into flames while every dark memory, thought and desire runs into my fists. So many medals, but only the people around me could see them. The real battle was against my head. And maybe, just maybe, I was afraid to admit that I had no chance in winning it. She makes it harder. An angel with wings to everyone else, yet a master at unveiling those devil's horns only when I'm near. There's this darkness, this fire, in the both of us. The only difference is, she's better at hiding it. She was gone, far away, yet there was this tether dowsed in fuel connecting us, one that only lit up when she came back. Every time she's near, I feel the limits surrounding my wrath being tested. Then again, rules are only made to be broken, right? Mafia Dark Romance *Standalone*

"Every time you look at me, it feels like I'm reading my favorite page for the first time." She said "Then let me tell you, I could reread your whole story forever." I said with love. .... 𝙄𝙎𝘼𝘽𝙀𝙇𝙇𝘼 𝙈𝘼𝙍𝙄𝙀 𝙎𝙄𝙉𝘾𝙇𝘼𝙄𝙍:- "For a long time, I treated love like a bad investment-too risky, too likely to cost me everything. Running my business taught me that the best things are solid and reliable. This love we have isn't weak or sudden. it's MY safe place. You give me the space to be successful, or to simply rest, without judgment. You accept every part of me, even the difficult parts, and you don't try to change them.

Because I'm the majority shareholder, and this partnership is non-negotiable. I watched you build your jewelry empire, and it just confirmed what I already knew: you're the sharpest thing in any room, and you belong here, next to the future Don. When I look across the room and see some schmuck staring too long, yeah, I get a little possessive. Think of it as quality control. You're my biggest acquisition, Isabella, and the only contract I'll ever sign with a lifetime exclusivity clause. Now, stop looking so serious and tell me if my tie goes with the color of the blood I almost spilled five minutes ago." ..... "Before you, my life was about work. Now, I spend my mornings negotiating with a named Romano. It turns out, giving up control for the right person is the ultimate power move."
