- Parts 2
In a world where the monarchy dominates all and robs everyone of their ethics, there are nobles who take pride in their extravagant luxuries. Power, fame, sex, and murder all play into one in their high-end life.
The greater noble families who have an immense amount of money buy the Arctos. The Arctos are orphan children abandoned for abilities only they possess. Only the opposite gender Arctos can be paired with a master in these homes. Arctos are body guards and servants of the house hold who live out generations without a drop of age.
Orphans, yes, but you may think, "why such a price for something unwanted by its parents...?"
These abilities they possess are like no other weapon. Powerful and dark but only as the master bids. Seen as freaks of society...
But aren't we all?

Please beware there are scenes with violence and sexual content some readers may not be comfortable reading. What is a ReGenesis? Is it a "do-over"?

Maybe it's a little of it all, but whatever it is might not be able to fix the burdens and mistakes off long ago when it comes to Josh, James, & Justin. Errors and events left unsettled have come home to roust with one final battle to determine the outcome, but this time the price might be too much to handle. Can the trio overcome the odds once & for all? Are they doomed to settle debts with their lives?

'For The Mafia' Series - Book 1 of 3! ~~~ "Down on your knees." He lets go of my hair and pushes my shoulders down roughly, before unbuttoning and shrugging off his shirt. I kneel in front of him and instantly unbuckle his belt and unzip his black pants. He watches me eagerly from above, keeping his hands to his side, letting me lead. "Are you jealous when I flirt with those men for information?" I bat my eyes up at him innocently as I pull his pants down to his knees. His face hardens as he considers my question. "I don't like your hands on them." He grumbles and I smirk. I already knew the answer. "I do it for you, Enzo." I remind him as I move my mouth closer to him. "Only me." He growls as he pulls my head forward, closing the space between us. ~~~ When a dangerous mafia leader meets this particular stripper, he learns she is anything but. Both equally ruthless and thirsting for power, he hires her as his lethal interrogator and assassin, however she quickly becomes more when neither can resist each other.

Obsessively In Love
WARNING MATURE CONTENT: MENTION OF GRAPHIC CONTENT ABUSE, MURDER, THE USE OF DRUGS WITH MATURE LANGUAGE AND MATURE SCENES. VIEWERS DISCRETION IS ADVISED 18+ Daisy Romana has spent years building a quiet, careful life-one where she can stay invisible, keep her past buried, and help the broken people who walk into her therapy office. She knows how to manage chaos. She knows how to keep boundaries. She knows how to stay safe. Until Lorenzo Rossi walks in. Tattooed, unreadable, and radiating danger from the moment he sits down, Lorenzo is nothing like her other patients. He doesn't flinch. He doesn't apologize. He doesn't pretend to be anything other than what he is-lethal, controlled, and far too aware of her. Daisy knows better than to let him get close. She knows better than to let him touch her. She definitely knows better than to let him kiss her. But one reckless moment shatters every rule she's ever lived by. Now Daisy is entangled with a man who kills without remorse, a man whose past is soaked in blood, a man who was never supposed to want her-and who refuses to let her go. As her career crumbles, her family turns against her, and her carefully constructed life collapses, Daisy is forced to confront the truth: Lorenzo isn't just dangerous. He's obsessed. And the deeper she falls into his world, the more she realizes that loving him might cost her everything-her job, her freedom, and maybe even her life. But walking away from him? That might be the one thing she can't survive. A dark, addictive therapist‑patient romance where obsession blurs into devotion, and one forbidden touch ignites a chain of consequences neither of them can escape.

Wordcount: 88.33K A bully in school, a parasite as a grown-up. The shadow of a man. A shunned member of society. Such are the descriptions given if one asked about a certain young man, but he couldn't care less. All that mattered to him was his mission, vengeance.

At the beginning of his mission, there were five torches lighting his path, now, even the last one ceased at the flicker of its final light. After that, in an effort to join her, he also extinguished his light. Yet fate is a fickle mistress, and you should be careful what you wish for...because the Lord of the underworld seemed determined to send him into a different world. With his protest ignored he was swiftly dropped into the body of a recently deceased prince. Plunged into the seat of a kingdom, overflowing with intrigue and schemes.
