Empire of Shadows (Book 1)
Y/N, a young and talented artist, lives a life of vivid colors and quiet solitude, her days spent lost in canvases and her nights dreaming of a world beyond her own. When she's approached by a wealthy businessman, Simon Riley, who offers to commission her work, she thinks it's a chance to push her art to new heights. Simon is charming yet mysterious, and while his generous patronage seems like a dream, his enigmatic aura feels like a storm looming on the horizon. But Simon "Ghost" Riley is no mere businessman. Behind his tailored suits and polite demeanor lies one of the most powerful mafia bosses in the city, ruling an empire built on secrecy, fear, and shadows. For years, he's kept his personal life and his underworld reign separate, trusting no one and needing no one. But meeting Y/N stirs something he thought long buried-feelings that could make him vulnerable in a world where weakness is fatal. As Y/N delves deeper into her work for Simon, she begins to notice the cracks in his facade-the lingering looks, the hushed conversations, the shadows that follow him. Curiosity leads her to uncover the truth, placing her directly in the crossfire of his deadly world. Soon, she finds herself faced with an impossible choice: leave behind the life and love she's found with him or stay, risking everything for a man whose empire may crumble if his enemies discover the one person he truly cares for. *In a world where trust is scarce and love is a dangerous game, will Y/N and Simon's connection be their salvation or their undoing?*Complete

Saving Blitzo
It was normal for Blitzo, the boss of I.M.P to disappear at times for a few days. Often it was because he was doing some crazy thing that usually involved trouble. So the employees of the company didn't pay much attention to it and only planned on yelling him when he returned. However, nine days of not seeing their boss was starting to make the group worry that something had happened to him.
