In every home, there is a knife that never leaves the kitchen.
Azalea and Poppy grew up learning the quiet rules of family, what to say, what to hide, and what never gets talked about. But when a small, ordinary object becomes the centre of an unspeakable act, the line between protection and revenge begins to blur.
The Bread Knife is a crime thriller that unfolds in the most familiar place of all: home. Told through the emotional lens of sisterhood, it explores how love can twist, how silence can become dangerous, and how revenge doesn't always come dressed as violence.
Sometimes, the sharpest wounds are the ones no one sees.

The Gospel of a Mafia Princess
Raised to be holy. Born into something far more dangerous. Seventeen year old, Evienne Ellery spent her life preparing for heaven. Sent away to a secluded boarding school in the Swiss Alps by distant, unfeeling adoptive parents, she was raised by nuns and priests to be obedient, submissive and small. Behind stone chapels and cold classrooms, Evienne learned early that love was conditional, punishment was holy, and suffering was something to be endured quietly Her future was simple: be good, be faithful, and one day do her duty-marry a man who would secure her family's interests. Her life was planned. Controlled. Perfect. Until it wasn't. When everything she knows collapses, Evienne is torn from the only world she has ever known and sent to live with her biological family-six brothers who are loud, vulgar, violent, and unapologetically criminal. They don't pray. They don't obey. And they certainly don't believe in God the way she was taught. They believe in blood. With them, she learns the truth of who she really is: The lost princess of one of the most powerful mafia families in the world. Her brothers have been searching for her for years, and now that they've found her, they refuse to lose her again. In their world of power, crime, and betrayals, Evienne learns that love doesn't always look gentle-and protection often comes with a body count. But as old family feuds resurface, enemies close in, and the past she was hidden from begins to reach for her, Evienne is forced to confront an impossible question: What happens when the people you love will never be welcome in heaven-and you're no longer sure you want to go without them?

In a world where hearts were easily broken, he chose to have none. A powerful businessman, cold and untouchable, lived a life built on silence and control. He never spoke with warmth, never cared enough to stay, and never allowed anyone close enough to hurt him. Emotions were nothing but distractions-and he had buried his long ago. Until one night... everything changed. He found her-alone, trembling, and fragile like a piece of glass ready to shatter. Her eyes held fear, her silence carried pain, and her small hands clutched onto nothing... as if she had already lost everything. For the first time, he didn't walk away. He didn't know why he stopped. He didn't know why her tears affected him. But something in her broken existence reached the part of him he thought was long dead. She was scared of everything... even of him. Yet slowly, unknowingly, she became the reason his empty world began to feel again. He, who never believed in love, found himself learning care... patience... protection. Not as a lover- But as a brother she never had.

Will he be able to protect her? Or will the fragile bond they built break before it can truly become a family.

Their Lost Star
At fifteen, Kiara had spent her entire life suffering under her abusive mother, believing pain was all she deserved. But everything changes when Rajveer Rathore - the head of the Rathore family - adopts her and gives her a new identity, a new home, and a family that showers her with love like their own princess. Her brothers become her greatest protectors, loving her fiercely, spoiling her endlessly, and standing beside her like a shield against the world. What the Rathores don't know is that Kiara carries a dangerous secret tied to her past... a truth capable of destroying lives if it ever comes out. And while the world fears him as the most ruthless and heartless mafia king, one girl becomes his only weakness. The man who never showed mercy, who ruled the underworld with blood and fear, becomes soft only for Kiara Rathore - the princess of the Rathore family, the heartbeat of her brothers, and the only girl capable of bringing a monster to his knees. But, but, but... before you think this is going to be a dark and emotional mafia story... trust me, the seriousness survives for barely a few chapters before the Rathores turn everything into complete chaos. From dramatic brother fights, nonstop teasing, overprotective madness, accidental disasters, and a princess who somehow controls an entire mafia family without lifting a finger - this story is basically emotional damage mixed with comedy and pure chaotic energy. 😭✨
