the Sixteenth Surgeon
In a post-apocalyptic world, culled by war and resurrected in the same violent image, the capitol city streets of Amenthes are about to run red with blood. A society ruled by a class of hired killers known as Surgeons, balances on the edge of chaos, as a new operation gets the green light for hire. Roman Blue, the oldest and best Surgeon alive, steps out of retirement for a mark nobody saw coming...himself. Nobody believes it, that Roman, infamous killer of the highest pedigree, puts a bounty on his own head of 16 million dollars, to whoever shows up at the Organization claiming room with a Roman coin, (his calling card) covered in his own blood. Is this a statement of power, or a way for an old dog to die in the fires of glory? Rumors spread and Surgeons from far and wide find themselves in the same streets, feuding over territory and riches, as well as the respect of the one who finally kills the Roman. Speculation boils as theories surface, and greed fuels the rage of a city built on myths and bodies, where every top Surgeon has their trademark and their own nemesis, where the rules are about to break down. How do you kill a Roman? What does he have to gain, or is it all just for the bloody fun of it? 16 days, 15 Surgeons will fall. Who will be standing when the smoke clears? Place your bets, load your guns. All Hail Caesar.Complete

𝐒𝐢𝐧𝐟𝐮𝐥 𝐕𝐢𝐫𝐭𝐮𝐞𝐬
"𝐈 𝐥𝐨𝐯𝐞 𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐥𝐢𝐤𝐞 𝐦𝐲 𝐨𝐰𝐧 𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐭𝐨𝐲." ~ Marriage was never for love-it was for legacy. A strategy. A performance. And for the Lombardis and the Morettis, it was the most calculated, showstopping alliance of the century. Roman Moretti, Don of the La Cosa Nostra, and Angeline Lombardi, only daughter of the French-Italian Mafia Capo, had been betrothed since her birth --matched to unite two empires under one crown. Hidden from the world, Angeline was raised to be the perfect wife. Groomed. Silenced. Controlled. She learned early that one misstep would strip her of everything-including her name. Everyone's first mistake? They underestimated her. Though no one had ever seen her, the world assumed the Lombardi Princess was a polished doll. Quiet. Disposable. Roman saw the marriage as a formality-another calculated step toward total dominance. He had no plans to love her. No plans to live with her. Just a wife on paper, tucked away from him elsewhere, summoned when needed for appearances. But everything changed the moment he saw her walking down the aisle. She was perfection. Untouchable. She would be his ruin, his weakness, his obsession, his motivation. His everything. But what if that had been her plan all along? Not everything buried stays dead. Not every identity is what it seems. In a world where saints become monsters and monsters are worshipped like gods, Angeline must decide what's worth saving: her bloodline, her love, or herself. ~ -HEA -18+ -Romance/mystery/thriller -No Cheating/OWD -DARK ROMANCE "OMYGOSH.
