Prologue -Silk in Shadow
Florence. Midnight.
A shadow moved along the edge of the rooftops, silent as breath.
Below, the golden windows of Sant'Ambrogio Hospital glowed like watchful eyes.
Inside, a doctor worked her late shift-unaware that danger sat closer than her own pulse.
She didn't know his name.
She didn't know the man who followed her, who watched from the corners of her life, who removed anyone that got too close.
But he knew everything.
He watched her eat. Work. Sleep.
And he wasn't alone anymore.
Tonight, another pair of eyes had found her.
Dante Moretti.
Mafia heir. Silent king. Touched by cruelty, raised by loyalty. He didn't believe in fate.
Until he walked into Room 314... and saw the doctor who would unravel him, piece by piece. A storm was coming.
Of blood, betrayal, obsession-and a love that defied every rule.
Welcome to the world where silk hides shadows, and love tastes like war.

Mafia's Bella
I'm a strong person, but every now and then I need someone to hold my hand and tell me everything will be alright. Bella grew up in a world of no affection, no love; all she knew was hate, fear, and betrayal. However, one day everything changed, maybe for the better or for the worse? Will she find love or will she remain in the past? *** Placing his hand on my thigh under the table where anyone could see, he began to climb up and whispered in my ear. "Have you done something like this before?" The higher he got up, the heavier my breath became. The smirk on his face seemed like he was finding it amusing. The others were focused on their food. He made his way to the center of my legs and I let out a gasp. " we don't want anyone to hear you now do we," he said starting to rub slowly but surely I looked down at my plate, it was still full of food, and I hadn't even started eating yet. " Bella are you OK?" Stella asked. She got the attention of everyone else, they all looked at me instead of him stopping he got even faster. " Yeah Bella are you OK" he teased with the same smug smirk. *** Ps: this is my first story hope you like it and read it Oh yeah don't forget to leave a vote ♥ AK started: Apr 06, 2021 *I don't own any of these pictures in the story*

𝐎𝐛𝐬𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧 seems like such a small and common word to see and hear, but what will happen when this small and common word will throw an innocent and sensitive girl into a world which is unknown to her even after being connected to her...!!!! So yes, you understood correctly, this is the story of two people who are together but are unaware of each other's identity. "Par kahate hai na jab kismat ne donon ki rekhayein ek dusare ke saath ankit ki hai to unke astitv ki kya majaal, jo ek dusare ke astitv se na mile." [ But it is said that when fate has marked the lines of both of them with each other, then how can their existence not meet each other's existence.] This is the story of a cruel and dreaded person "𝐄𝐯𝐚𝐧𝐤𝐬𝐡 𝐒𝐚𝐥'𝐖𝐚𝐡𝐥𝐢𝐚" who rules the mafia world and a calmly generous and sensitive fragile Indian medical student "𝐀𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐲𝐚 𝐒𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐚" who is living in Italy away from her real identity and fulfilling her dream of becoming a neurosurgeon. What will happen when two people with different personalities, one a killer and the other a savior; will get tied in a sacred bond called marriage where their existence will matter more than their identity? I 𝐀𝐫𝐢𝐬𝐡𝐚 your author; invite you all to one of my stories where : "One rules the underworld and the other owns his heart."

I was supposed to forget him. Just one night. One stupid, reckless, blazing hot night. I didn't even know his last name... But two months later, I'm pregnant with the heir to one of the most dangerous empires in the world. Damien Moretti is lethal, wealthy, and terrifyingly possessive. I built a life without him, poured everything into my boutique, held my head high, and decided I could do this on my own. Until he walked back into my life like a storm- demanding answers, demanding me. And he's not leaving without a fight. Now I'm stuck between a man who terrifies me and a future I never planned for... Because Damien doesn't just want the baby. He wants everything. My body. My heart. My soul. And once a Moretti claims something... He never lets Go His lips were fire-bruising, demanding, desperate as he pressed me back against the boutique's fitting room mirror. One hand gripped my hip like he owned it. The other slid down, low and reverent, stopping right where our child was growing inside me. "Mine," he growled against my skin, his voice ragged and possessive. "This baby... you... all of it. Mine." I should've pushed him away. But instead, I arched into him as his mouth traveled lower, whispering filthy promises over the swell of my barely-there bump before planting a hot kiss there. "You shouldn't be here," I whispered. He looked up at me with eyes that burned emerald. "Sweetheart... I'm never leaving."

Khaali Raaste
She felt it before she saw it-the prickle of eyes on her skin, the unsettling sensation of being watched, even in a crowd. The feeling had started months ago, subtle at first, just a hint of unease that she brushed aside as paranoia. But as days turned into weeks, the sensation grew more intense, more insistent, like a shadow that followed her everywhere. Her friends called her dramatic, her mother worried she was overworking herself. But she knew better. It wasn't just her imagination. He was always there-just out of sight, lurking in the edges of her world, a dark figure woven into the fabric of her life. She caught glimpses of him in reflections, a fleeting silhouette in the corner of her vision. She could feel his presence, a heavy weight pressing on her chest, tightening her breath. He watched her with a hunger that burned in his eyes, an obsession that consumed him. She didn't know his name, didn't know his face, but she could feel the intensity of his gaze even when she was alone. It was a strange sensation, knowing someone wanted her so badly it bordered on madness. Her every move was marked, every breath counted. She was no longer living in a city, but in a cage-a cage he had built, without bars or locks, yet impossible to escape. He had chosen her, marked her as his own, and now there was no turning back. She's his obsession, and he's her obsessive stalker. What she didn't know was why. Why her? Why now? And what would he do if she tried to run? The answer was simple-he would never let her goComplete
Sister's Wife
She sat in the café, enjoying her black coffee like every Monday morning. Black coffee, like her heart, she thought over and over again, smiling. She just skimmed the latest article on the front page with her left glance. Reports of new missing people were no longer so foreign to her. The names of the victims were, as if archived, in her head. -The police are doing their best to find the missing people and catch the perpetrator...- She grimaced in reluctance and looked toward the intersection at the end of the main street. A police car with two police officers, with [typical] donuts and coffee to go. Typical - she thought out loud. Her view was suddenly blocked. A black car stopped in front of the café. The door opened and a young man-early 30s, she guessed-got out. A black suit, red tie, shiny dancing shoes. [Typical] businessmen. His intense gaze rested on her. She looked at her gold watch-her father's keepsake. 7:01 a.m. "You're late" "Just a minute" She looked at the clock again. 7:02 a.m. "No, two" With an elegant gesture, he invited her in. She left the coffee cold, as there would be another opportunity. They sat quietly opposite each other. She placed her red coat on her thighs. It was nice and warm in here. ,,Who?" He pressed a small collection of files into her hand. -Amara Smith-Complete

Enzo..." I started, but the words died on my lips as he silenced me with a kiss, his mouth devouring mine with urgency.
