 My eyes darted from the awards to the man. He was smoking, his sharp features made even more intimidating by the dark clouds of smoke billowing from his nostrils.

Judges smoke? Jesus Christ!

I cleared my throat and forced a professional smile. "Good day, Your Honour. My name is Aurora Bennett, your new intern."

His bored eyes flicked toward me, scanning me with the detached air of someone who had seen it all.

"You're early."

I forced another smile. "Yes, Your Honour. I'm punctual."

"I don't like it. You're too early." His voice was harsh, and my smile faltered.

Frozen Temptation -THF by martascarmona

"I froze looking in his eyes, but feel safe in his arms." - Aurora Aurora Fernandes feels too much. Too much to trust completely, too much to let herself fall. Raised in silence, shaped by absence, haunted by betrayal - she learned to survive alone. She lets people in... but only on her terms. She built walls around her heart, a barrier to stop anyone from truly loving her. Italy was supposed to be a fresh start. A place to become someone new. Somewhere no one knew her past... Somewhere she could hide behind a new life. Then she met Lorenzo Vittorino. He feels nothing. Trained to bury emotion, raised to control and dominate, untouched by love or tenderness. Cold, untouchable, feared - exactly the man his father demanded him to be. Her walls begin to crack. His ice begins to thaw. Something in each other's presence awakens feelings they've never allowed themselves to feel. She hides the storm inside her. He hides the emptiness around him. And yet, their connection grows stronger with every glance, every touch, every unspoken word. Fire meets ice. Walls break. Barriers fall. And when temptation is frozen, it's only a matter of time before it melts - leaving nothing untouched.

The Price of Beauty. by LaylaHazan_48

"You cant force someone to love you the way you loved them. Life is always unfair" Aurora Laurent is a surgeon, a businesswoman, and the owner of a luxury gown empire.After stepping away from her modeling career, she built a life on her own terms, where intelligence and elegance are at the forefront of everything she's accomplished. She's strong, independent, and unapologetically selective about the people she lets in she's in control. That is, until he shows up. Lorenzo De Luca is a mafia leader, hiding behind the polished façade of a successful entrepreneur with FBI ties. Cold, calculated, and used to pulling all the strings, he's carved out an empire in the shadows. But when he crosses paths with Aurora, everything he thought he knew about power and attraction is upended. Her strength, her lack of interest in his wealth, and the mystery that surrounds her spark something in him he didn't see coming. What starts as a clash of worlds quickly turns into an undeniable pull. But in a world of lies, manipulation, and betrayal, trust doesn't come easy. As the stakes get higher, they're forced to question whether they can keep their lives intact or if their connection will destroy everything they've fought for. "Some things are worth risking everything for," he murmurs. But will she take the leap into his dark world?

All Yours by drharleenquinzel_

"Please," I whisper, my voice trembling as tears prick the corners of my eyes. "Please don't hurt me." The words barely escape my throat, fragile and desperate. He studies me for a moment, tilting his head slightly, almost as if he's amused by my plea. Then he scoffs, the sound sharp and mocking. "Why would I want to do that?" he murmurs, his voice smooth but carrying a dark undertone that chills me. He takes a step forward, and instinctively, I step back. "I've just found you..." He pauses, his gaze dragging over my face like a predator sizing up its prey. "And now you're mine." Aurora Evans leads a life of simplicity. Eat, work, sleep-her unchanging regimen is her sanctuary, and she has no intention of altering it. But what unfolds when a shadowy figure, lurking beyond her windows, takes an insidious interest in her? One glance at her in a café ensnares him, rendering him captivated, his singular ambition becoming clear: to claim her as his own. Aurora's attempts to escape his shadowy games are futile, especially in the cloak of night when he emerges, weaving his spell under the cover of darkness. He teases, entices, and pushes her perilously close to her breaking point. Her resolve is to distance herself as much as possible. Yet, fate has a cruel sense of irony. When she is abruptly dismissed from her previous job, she unwittingly lands a position working for him-as his assistant-entangling her in a web she can no longer evade. *A STALKER ROMANCE* #1 in "assistant" 12/23/24 #1 in "criminal" 3/8/25

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."

⚠️ WARNING: 1/3 series book ⚠️ ------------------ "So, Miss Connery." He skimmed his index finger over the edge of my desk as he slowly made his way round it. "What makes you think I would be so forgiving as to you going against me?" I snorted, a small smirk forming on my lips. "With all due respect Mr AltoBelli, I don't answer to you. You are not my boss, nor the owner of this company. I am simply helping my client, who has already paid for my help." His jaw tightened, his body looked as if it would pounce at any second. Yet, he refrained. He walked towards the large floor to ceiling window in my office and peered down the 29 floors to look at the bottom of NYC. "I think it's fair to say that you have quite a mouth on you." He noted, turning his frame back to me. "And I think it's fair to say that you are a; misogynistic, egotistical, irresponsible adult!" I argued back. He inclined his head in my direction. "Is that so?" ------------------ "I will never marry you Ace! Your a sick, vile, evil human being!" I spat as he slowly removed himself from his towering position over me. "And that's how you really feel?" He replied, fury brewing within him. "I guess so. Yeah!" The only answer that I could muster together. ------------------ 🖤 After Halo Connery got her degree in Law, she thought she had won the lottery, but since then she's realised just how much pressure she is under with her new job.

Aurora by 1nanarenee

Aurora has spent her whole life in her house isolated from the world. Her parents lost one child, they didn't want to loose another. But what happens when one night, her so "isolated" life untwists, and all the 'secrets' unfold. -------- I look down at my feet and play with the bracelets on my wrist. Slowly Antonio's hands rose, cupping my cheeks and I could feel his silver rings brushing against my face. My breathing sped up as our eyes met. Our lips inches away from one another. He leaned in, and my eyes lingered to his perfect lips. They met my forehead, staying for a moment before pulling away, his hands back to his side. The blush on my cheeks shown to him, and he smirked at it. He leans down to my ear and whispers. "I'm the only one that can make you feel this way angel. No one else, you understand?" I nod slowly. "Words Aurora." "I-I understand." He smiles as his thumbs rubs against my bottom lip. "Good girl," He leans down and places a kiss on the corner of my mouth. "Goodnight angel." "Goodnight Antonio." He turns around and walks out the house leaving me standing in the middle of the entrance wanting more. -------- 8/23/22 - 5/5/23 <3 59,371 Words.

Broken Doll by CherylZielle

The De Luca brothers reign supreme in the underworld, holding dominion over the ruthless realm of the Italian Mafia. They are cold, merciless, driven by madness, their loyalty solely to blood. Yet, their lives take an unexpected turn when they discovered their thirteen years old little sister. *** "When she was choking me, is that... love?" she whispered, her voice barely audible, each word trembling as if afraid to leave her lips. Her eyes, wide and glassy, searched mine desperately, seeking a truth that she couldn't grasp amidst the fog of confusion and despair that clouded her mind. My heart seethed with rage, a torrent of emotions crashing against the walls of my restraint, threatening to betray the stoic facade I had carefully constructed. I wanted to scream, to shake her out of this misguided belief. Hestia, my little sister, stared back at me. Her innocence tainted by the cruel hands of someone who had twisted the meaning of love into something unrecognizable. She couldn't differentiate the painfully obvious truth, the clear distinction between love and control, kindness and cruelty. It was as if the very essence of her spirit was being suffocated, just as her breath had been. ── ─ ┈┈┈┄┄╌╌ ⚠️ Trigger Warning: This story contains sensitive and potentially distressing themes, including abuse, sexual assault, rape, psychological trauma, and mature content.
