Ava Lansing wanted nothing more than to hide.
After fleeing her abusive ex with nothing but her two dogs and a single duffle bag, she's fought to start over and build herself a new life. She spends her days working for an animal shelter, greatly preferring the company of dogs to people. Ava keeps her head down, stays quiet, and prays that her ex won't be able to find her again.
Until three mysterious men set their sights on her at her shelter's adoption event.
Getting tangled into a web of secrets, shadows, and dangerous mafia men is the exact opposite of staying hidden, yet she can't resist them.
So when the trio's leader, Lucian, presents her with an offer, Ava dives head first into the viper's den.
The offer is simple: in exchange for protection and security, play wife to the most dangerous man in the country.
What could possibly go wrong?

To everyone else, she's just a quiet girl with lowered eyes and pointed toes. But 𝗥𝗔𝗙𝗔𝗘𝗟 𝗖𝗔𝗦𝗧𝗘𝗟𝗟𝗢 knows better. He sees the way her hands tremble. The way her smile doesn't reach her eyes. The way she obeys like she's afraid not to. And it pulls him in. She was promised to him-a contract sealed in blood, not love-and now she belongs to a man as cold as he is calculated and controlling. Rafael doesn't crave her affection. He isn't looking to be wanted. What he wants is to unravel her. To possess every piece of the girl the world calls delicate. But Ivory isn't fragile. She's fractured. And the closer he gets, the more she falls apart for him. In a world of shadows, power, and pain, their connection becomes something twisted. Addictive. Dangerous. Because when you give yourself to a monster... you don't get to choose what parts of you he keeps. And when control slips... Desire takes its place. And Rafael never loses.

"Join me," she murmured, her voice a seductive, low tone that carried on the still air. It was an invitation, a challenge, and a promise all rolled into one. She could feel his eyes on her, tracing the curve of her back, the swell of her hips just beneath the water's surface. The sight of her, bathed in moonlight, was a potent temptation. He remained motionless, a predator assessing his prey. The game had begun, and he knew that one wrong move could cost him everything. His jaw tightened, the muscle ticking. The silence stretched, thick with unspoken tension. Finally, a low growl rumbled from his chest. "You have no idea what you're asking," he said, his voice a dangerous caress. ༻❁✿❀༺ 𝐿𝑜𝓇𝑒𝓃𝓏𝑜 𝒜𝓁𝓋𝒶𝓇𝑒𝓏 It's a tale as old as time, once you make a deal with the devil. He's Ruthless. He's Cold. He's Vicious. He's Merciless. You'll never get ur soul back. In a world of corruption, he's the king. The man who controls the underworld with just his inked palms. Until he met his match. 𝒜𝓇𝒾𝑒𝓁𝓁𝑒 𝒫𝑒𝓇𝑒𝓏 She's cunning. She's manipulative. She's selfish. She's seductive. In the darkest nights, she's a predator. Lurking in the shadow watching her prey. It's when she caught the eyes of the devil, that when she knows it won't end well for either of them. It was supposed to be so simple: Kill The Target. Temptation is the devil looking through the keyhole. Yielding is opening the door and inviting him in. -Billy Sunday And his eyes have all the seeming of a demon's that is dreaming. ༻❁✿❀༺ Trops: - Mafia Romance - Strong FMC/Grumpy MMC - Grumpy/Brat - Dark Themes - Spicy Scenes - Enemies to Lovers - Hate/Love
The Traitor's Wife
My grief is a lie. His guilt a weapon. And remembering will destroy whoever I used to love. Maybe this was it. Maybe she had already crossed the line between the living and the lost. The thought of reuniting with Alexei, of seeing him again, wherever he was, felt less terrifying than stepping through that door to meet his killer. Death, at least, would have been merciful. Forget everything you think you know about mafia romance. This isn't a story about an innocent girl stumbling into a dangerous world. Claire lived in that world, she just can't remember how... or what it cost her. A love story where the deepest betrayal may be the one you inflict on yourself. Fair warning: this book will break you, reshape you, and leave you desperate for answers you're too afraid to face. ⚠️ Content Disclaimer ⚠️ This work contains mature themes and potentially triggering content, including but not limited to: violence, death, emotional abuse, manipulation, trauma, sexual tension, and morally complex relationships.

But all that changed when a customer at the cafe was a very dangerous man and called to her wolf and her heart. Axe Luciano was the head of security for his brother's nightclub. He made sure that no one fucked with his brother and killed anyone that tried. It was a simple way that worked for him to forget his tormented days in cage fights as a prized fighter. He kept his focus on work and nothing else... until trouble came calling at the club and he rescued a woman, that beckoned the possessive wolf from inside his blackened soul. Sonya Sharma moved from Mumbai all the way to New York to escape her old life. She was best friends with Angela and they even lived together after they met at the airport the day they both arrived.

And at the center of it all stands the boy she'd sworn to forget. What once was fate, fractures into an illusion and twist into something dangerously evil. They were kids together. Friends together.

There's no place to hide here. You can run, but you'll never get away. "𝘞𝘦𝘭𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘦 𝘵𝘰 𝘉𝘦𝘥𝘭𝘢𝘮. 𝘞𝘦 𝘩𝘰𝘱𝘦 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘴𝘶𝘳𝘷𝘪𝘷𝘦 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘺." 𝐃𝐚𝐫𝐤 𝐑𝐨𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐅𝐨𝐫𝐛𝐢𝐝𝐝𝐞𝐧 𝐄𝐧𝐞𝐦𝐢𝐞𝐬 𝐓𝐨 𝐋𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐬 𝐒𝐞𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐭 𝐒𝐨𝐜𝐢𝐞𝐭𝐲
