It was all a fairy-tale at first, but Ellie soon discovers that Hunter, her Prince Charming, isn't so chivalry after all.

He'll help her try and walk away, but will she? Can Ellie walk away, leaving just her footprints in the sand?

But that doesn't mean she's safe. 21 year old Alina Anthony thinks New York City is safe for her-well, safe enough to not be found. Hidden in plain sight, she goes to school during most of the year, but works at a florist shop for the summer. But the switchblade she always keeps on her is a reminder of what she and those searching for her are capable of. So she has her one rule: don't get too close to anyone, no matter how bad she wants to. But when Daemon Kade sneaks into her life without an explanation to who he is, the two opposites can't help but attract, even if she hates his bossy demeanour and how attached he is to his gun. She knows he's dangerous, and he is definitely hiding things from her, but she can't help but fall deeper with the guy with a cold heart and even colder eyes. But when his secret comes out, all that's left is betrayal and heartache. t r o p e s : grumpy/sunshine, frenemies-to-lovers, banter, secret identity, mafia fiction, smut, no strings attached

Sometimes, not every love story can be as idyllic as it should be. Dean Winchester, bred and raised in the mafia, carried a heart that yearned desperately for love, just like any ordinary person. While the essence of a criminal coursed through his veins, his heart wept for every inhumane act he committed. No matter how hard he strived to become a better man, he couldn't wash away the thick blood of an outlaw. In the end, he never expected anyone to care for him. All he ever longed for in his life was to experience the tender embrace of a mother's love, like everyone else. Sadly, even his own mother chose to abandon him to the clutches of his ruthless father, the Cobra mafia boss. Every twist of fate was fueled by the mere fact that he carried the blood of a killer, leaving him branded as a monster without a chance to prove his worth. Dean grew weary of trying to change people's perceptions of him. Until one fateful day, he crossed paths with the daughter of his sworn enemy, and his world turned upside down. In her presence, he discovered acceptance for who he truly was. For the first time in his life, he experienced genuine love. Every emotion, from tenderness to heartbreak, washed over him, gradually numbing his senses. ***WARNING*** Strong Adult Content & Explicit Language 18+. The story contains brutal acts of violence.
