The Grand Opera House thrives on spectacle-its velvet curtains hiding more than just drama. Under the gilded light and GeneCo's ever-looming symbol, bloodlines are tested, power is shifting, and betrayal hides behind every spotlight.
Y/N thought this opera would be just another gig-coffee runs, backstage chaos, and navigating diva tantrums. But when Luigi Largo, heir to GeneCo and known for his fury more than his charm, begins looking at her like she's the only solid ground in a crumbling empire... everything changes.
As his father's shadow looms large and his siblings whisper behind closed doors, Luigi must prove he's more than just a violent legacy. And Y/N? She's caught between loyalty, danger, and a growing bond with a man who's never needed anyone-until now.
But in a world where masks are literal and trust is rare, one wrong step could mean losing everything... or claiming a kingdom neither of them expected.

Found in Darkness
A crime boss struggles to carry out a vendetta after he falls for the spirited daughter of his enemy. ***** Twenty-two years after his parents were killed, Federico Di Maggio returns to New York with a simple plan: take down the man who betrayed his family. What he didn't plan on was Elenora Borelli, the enigmatic and fiery daughter of his enemy. Reeling from recent heartbreak, Elenora will stop at nothing to find her happiness. But when she finds herself pressured into an engagement with the dark and mysterious Federico, happiness may be the least of her problems. Hellbent on sabotaging the arrangement, Elenora defies Federico in ways no one else would ever dare. Too bad Federico's never been one to back down from a challenge. Especially one that calls to him in the most feral and passionate of ways. With unforeseen betrayals and new rivals, perhaps the real challenge Federico must face is deciding whether to fight his feelings for Elenora or give into them. But even if he chooses to end his long-standing vendetta against her father for mounting sparks between them, there's no guarantee she'll risk her heart on him. *Content Advisory: This story contains coarse language, scenes with violence and mature sexual content.

Crimson Ties
In a world where power is currency and fear is the crown, Luca DeMarco reigns supreme. Cold, ruthless, and unyielding, he's built his empire on the bones of his enemies. When Vincent Carmine's debts come due, Luca claims the only payment worth collecting-his daughter, Isabelle. But Isabelle Carmine is no ordinary mafia princess. Trained in secret since childhood and harbouring dark truths about her family's past, she enters Luca's world not as a victim, but as a force to be reckoned with. Their arranged marriage is meant to be a simple power play, a consolidation of empire through submission. Neither expects the fire that ignites between them-a dangerous attraction that threatens to consume everything in its path. As ancient prophecies surface and old enemies emerge from the shadows, Luca and Isabelle find themselves at the centre of a storm centuries in the making. Their union has awakened something powerful, something that could either save or destroy the underworld as they know it. Their son, Marco, born under a blood moon and marked by destiny, becomes both a blessing and a target. Together with Aurora, a child of shadow and silver, he represents a future that terrifies those clinging to the old ways. From the glittering canals of Venice to the ancient catacombs beneath Rome, "Crimson Ties" weaves a dark and sensual tale of power, prophecy, and the kind of love that transforms enemies into allies and arrangements into destiny. In this dangerous game of loyalty and betrayal, Luca and Isabelle must decide what matters more-the empire they're building or the legacy they'll leave behind. Because in their world, even love comes with a price, and some ties are meant to bind forever. A story of passion, power, and prophecy, "Crimson Ties" reimagines the mafia romance genre with a supernatural twist, proving that the greatest revolution isn't in the streets or the boardrooms, but in the heart.Concluida
