In the shadows of New York City, power is inherited, loyalty is bought, and love is a dangerous game.
Xavier Knight is the newly crowned leader of the Nightshade Syndicate - a ruthless mafia empire built by blood and sustained by fear. At just twenty-five, he commands billion-dollar corporations, corrupt officials, and a city that bends to his will. Cold. Calculated. Untouchable. Until one night, a bullet tears through his world... and a stranger saves him.
Avery Miles is running - from her past, from the scars no one sees, from the man who broke her. A registered nurse with quiet strength and guarded eyes, she lands in New York hoping to disappear. But fate has other plans.
Their worlds collide in an alley soaked with danger. She didn't mean to help him. He didn't mean to need her.
But now, neither can walk away.
Nightshade is a slow-burn, emotionally rich romance tangled in crime, secrets, and the kind of love that could ruin them both.All Rights Reserved

My Fathers Killer by ellelouisa02

A story in which Don Lucian of the Russian mafia becomes deeply enamoured with the notorious assassin known as 'Whisper' within the criminal underworld. ---------------------------- With eyes the color of fallen autumn leaves, and the confidence of ten kings, she was my world, my life, and my death. In her, I found the spring, summer, autumn, and winter of my soul. I often wondered if I was loving her wrong, maybe I was too obsessive, I thought I might die when she wasn't close enough to me. That's not an exaggeration, I truly thought I was going mentally insane. Her touch was the only thing to calm me. I fully believed that if she were to stab me, I'd be quick to check that she didn't nick herself in the process. I loved her. I cherished her beyond measure, like the stars adore the dark sky and the bees adore the flowers. Even if I had nothing else, as long as I had a piece of her, I would find a way to survive. ---------------------------- "You're such a big man, such a strong man and here you are, on your knees for me. That's a little pathetic, don't you think Lucian?" "You can have me anywhere, any country, any planet, any universe and I will be on my fucking knees for you. I beg for your love, my angel, and I will until the day I die." "Awh" I coo and bend down a little so our faces are just inches away "you will be begging for a very, very long time"

When Bennett and Bailey met, they both instantly had a thing for each other. But one of Bennett's rivals also has a thing for her and will stop at nothing to get her. <><><><><><> "Damn your weak as shit!" I laughed. My face hurt like a bitch but I wasn't going to tell him that. As my hands were swinging around, Ethan grabbed both my wrists and pushed them back onto the pillow on the bed. He picked my body up effortlessly throwing that on the bed. He pushed my wrists more into the pillow which began to hurt. "Say that again, darling." He put his face right in front of mine. "I dare you." His voice was just above a whisper. I thought about it for a minute. Saying it again would be the right thing to do but that could result in a lot of pain. If I didn't say it again though, he would call me weak and a pussy. I am neither of those things so I took a deep breath and repeated my statement. "You. Are. Weak. As shit. What was unclear about that?" I tilted my head taunting him further. <><><><><><> DISCLAIMER: I do not own any of the images used however, all of the characters and plot details are my own work.
