Please do not read if you feel as though you will be triggered** He stalked his way towards her. No words were uttered. Pure lust evident in their eyes. He backed her into a corner, she was looking everywhere but him, she couldn't, she shouldn't. His hand toyed with the hem of her dress. He hesitated. His mind was racing with thoughts of how he shouldn't, he couldn't. Her heartbeat picked up, her breaths quickened, her body needed him. He saw the affect he had on her. Pulling up her dress, he saw she had no panties on. Enraged he wrapped his hand around her neck, choking her, making her look into his eyes. His other hand slid into her folds, she was soaking wet, just for him. She whimpered in response. She couldn't get enough. Her hips rocked back and forth along with his fingers. He added another. Yet to kiss her, he pushed the thought out of his head. Her body began to rock faster, causing moans to fall from her mouth. He bent down to her ear and whispered, "Perché non possiamo semplicemente stare lontani gli uni dagli altri belli?". (Why can't we just stay away from each other beautiful?).

A stripper. An Italian mafia boss. And an unexpected pregnancy. Andrea Capaldi was a selfless woman who would do anything to help her family when they needed it. When her fathers restaurant started to fall apart after giving away almost all of his earnings to low life gangsters, Andrea knew she had to do something before their family restaurant could be foreclosed on. Desperate times call for desperate measures and she took a job at a strip club where she knew she could make fast and easy money. But what Andrea didn't expect to happen was to fall pregnant by a man she was giving a private dance to.

After taking over his fathers legacy he destroyed cities and built empires in his name so everyone knew that he was the godfather of power and status. He cared for no one and he wanted to keep it that way until that one unexpected night. Everything he believed in was thrown out the window and all he could think about was claiming her as his. And once he found out she was carrying his child the need grew stronger until he finally found the leverage he needed to forcefully make her his. It wasn't going to be easy but he always loved a challenge. ... Warning: When I first started this book I had no intention of having mature themes. I had no intention of putting in smut until the end. So don't expect this book to have intense mature scenes. But there is towards the end. You will also notice the use of these * that are for censored words. Like I said at the time I didn't mark my book off as mature yet so I didn't want to get flagged. It remained that way throughout the whole book just to keep it consistent. Just to emphasize ‼️LITTLE TO NO SMUT‼️

(Original Version) My cousin and I are the only true bloods left in the Thanos Family. I'm eighteen now and my absent father decided to finally take responsibility of having another child. Moving from New York to California wasn't the hard part. The hard part was trying to find the ones who murdered my mother and my grandparents, pretending to be a normal high schooler, and along with that, fighting my feelings for one of my brother's best friends. Didn't I mention that I am also going to be the new Don of our West Coast Empire? I am Gaiana Kallisto Thanos, Mafia Princess, and the best fucking fighter there is. This is book one of the Mafia Duet. WARNING: 18+ Mature scenes and language. _________________________________________ EXCERPT: "I only give respect to those who deserve it, and the only one in this room that deserves it is Alex. Plus you can't call me a slut when you are the one who loves to constantly have her bed warmed with partners. I'm the one in a stable relationship." She gave a smirk. "You sure about that," she asked. She took her phone out and showed me a photo of Luca dressed in what he wore today, escorting Stephany into the passenger seat of his car. I felt my heart drop to my stomach but didn't outwardly show it. Years of being able to turn off my emotions come in handy. "Well there goes that." I looked into her eyes. "What? Did you expect me to drop to the floor and cry? Honey, you don't know me. And you never will because I'm moving out." I looked at my father and said, "It was nice meeting you but I'm good. I'll pack my stuff and be out by tonight." _________________________________________ Start: March 30, 2018 End: August 31, 2018 Copyrighted 2018
