“Just this once…” He said, his voice low and desperate.
“You said that last time,” I whispered, my pulse racing beneath his touch.

​Hayes’s mouth curved into that dangerous smirk as he pinned my wrists above my head, his breath hot against my skin.
“Then lie,” he murmured, trailing his finger down my bare thigh. “Lie and say you don’t want me.”


​At eighteen, I was supposed to be thinking about normal things—college, friends, and a future.

​Not him.

​Not the boy who grew up in our house as my brother’s best friend, and the man who now lives down the hall as my stepbrother.

​Everything changed the day our parents got married. I knew I should have let go of the feelings I’d been carrying for years. I tried to bury them. God knows I did.

​But Hayes Montgomery won’t let me.

​He’s everything I shouldn’t want—a hockey star. A campus obsession. The kind of guy who breaks rules and hearts without even trying. Off-limits in every possible way.

​But the way he watches me makes it clear I’m the one thing he will never let go of. And the night our lips finally collided, I realized it was only the beginning.

​Giving in will ruin everything we call family and every secret our parents had tried to hide. But we are already too deep in this game, and Hayes has no intention of playing by the rules.

"Have you been a good girl, Inés?"
His fingers brushed her cheek, light, familiar, dangerous.
By day, he is her stepbrother, cold and distant, openly contemptuous of her presence in his home.
By night, he becomes her most devoted client, watching her beneath crimson lights as if he wants to take her apart piece by piece.
Inés never wanted saving. When her mother marries a dying billionaire, it is not love. It is survival. The price is living under the same roof as Miguel Alvarez, the arrogant heir who treats her like she does not belong.
But their new life is built on secrets. A debt from the past, three hundred thousand owed to dangerous people, is still waiting to be collected.
So every night, while the world believes she is somewhere safe, Inés disappears into the shadows of the city's most exclusive club. Behind a mask and a wig, she becomes Red, untouchable, desired, and finally free.
Until the night Miguel walks in. He does not recognize her. But he cannot stop watching her, wanting her, needing her. At home, he barely sees her. At the club, he is obsessed with her.
Inés knows she should run before the truth comes out. But she does not, because no matter how much she hates him, her body betrays her every time he gets too close.
Secrets do not stay buried forever. And when Miguel discovers that the woman he craves and the stepsister he despises are the same person, it will not just break them. It will destroy everything they thought they could control.

And he can never find out.

a night that left her with a little boy who has his impossible blue eyes.

She never learned his name.
He disappeared before sunrise.
And she rebuilt her life alone… until the day she walks into an interview at the world’s most powerful company.

Its CEO is Kieran D’Angelo.
Cold. Untouchable. Ruthless.

The man she prayed she would never see again.

He doesn’t recognize her
but he watches her, tests her, and claims her as his personal assistant.

What Kieran doesn’t know is that Aurielle carries more than his past.

She is the erased daughter of the D’Angelo empire—
a child they tried to destroy before she ever opened her eyes.

And the son she hides?
He’s the living proof of a truth that could tear the family apart.

When Kieran’s dark, charming cousin Dante returns—
obsessed with Aurielle and hungry for power—
a dangerous game begins.

Love, obsession, and blood collide.
And in a family built on lies,
the woman they tried to erase may be the one who brings the empire to its knees.

"Shhh.." he says as he slams into me. "There are people outside. Can't have them hearing us, can we?"

I nod, unable to form a complete sentence as he thrusts relentlessly into me.

God!

I can't believe I'm fucking the man I'm supposed to kill, the person my father asked me to kill, when said father is right outside this door and can come in at any moment.

Kira Hernandez came to Italy with one mission: kill Ryat Vitale, the ruthless Mafia Don who her father detests.

But one night in a Venetian club changes everything. A dangerous man, a seductive gaze, and an aphrodisiac-laced drink ignite a passion Kira can’t resist… and a secret she can’t hide.

When her mission goes horribly wrong, Kira shoots Ryat and flees to New York—only to be caught in the hands of another powerful Mafia kingpin. Now Ryat, the new Capo dei Capi, is hunting her, and the lines between revenge, lust, and love blur in a deadly game of power.

Can Kira survive the Don’s wrath… and his desire?

"You’re selling me?" My father couldn't even look me in the eye. "Solas bid the highest."
I stumbled back, but Alexander Dimitri grabbed me, his large hand possessively squeezing my throat. He slammed my father against the wall. "She’s mine," Alexander growled. "I’m the only one who gets to spread her legs."
He dragged me to his car, throwing me into the backseat. He climbed on top of me, his heavy body pinning me down. "Your father sold you to be a whore, Alina," he whispered, biting my earlobe. "But you're my whore now."
He ground his erection against my clit through my thin dress. "And I'm going to use you every single night until your debt is paid." His hand ripped my panties aside. "Starting right now."


In a world of high-stakes crime, betrayal, and dangerous alliances, Alina Santini finds herself caught between loyalty to her father and the wrath of the most ruthless man she’s ever encountered—Alexander Dimitri. Her father, Arthur, is a gambler with a penchant for making enemies and a debt so steep it could cost them everything. When Alexander storms into Alina’s life, gun in hand and vengeance in his cold, gray eyes, he delivers a chilling ultimatum: repay the stolen money, or he’ll take something Arthur holds most precious.

But Alexander isn’t just a man collecting debts—he’s a predator who thrives on power and control, and Alina has just stepped into his sights. Believing Alina is precious to her father, he takes her as payment, thinking her to be a bargaining chip to settle the debt.

“Say you want me.” I whispered to her.

“I don't.” Her voice was barely audible.

“You don't, huh? Then tell me, Chica, why are you so fucking wet for me?”

Camilla Torres didn't want to go out clubbing for her 21st birthday.

She didn't want her friends to dress her in slutty attire.

She didn't want to be kidnapped into the mafia world.

And most of all, she didn't want to catch the attention of Àlvaro Castillo, the head of the Italian mafia.

But life can't give you everything that you want. Sometimes, it gives you just the opposite.

He kills without mercy. She loves without reason. And nothing will stop her from having him.

For three years, Mafia leader Conner O’Neill has felt eyes on him. A phantom touch in the night. Perfume lingering on his pillows. Warm cookies in his oven. Enemies' heads delivered to his doorstep, gift-wrapped in bloodied silk. It isn’t fear that coils in his gut—it’s fascination. Someone is watching him. Someone who knows him. Someone who kills for him.

Her name is Sage—and she’s been his shadow since the night he unknowingly stole her heart with a bullet to another man’s brain. For her, it was love at first sight. Violent. Beautiful. Inevitable. Raised in darkness, owned by a monster, Sage was never meant to love. But Conner changed that. And she’s been his ever since, waiting for the day she can step out of the shadows and into his arms.

But the man who owns her doesn’t let go of his toys. And the man she loves doesn’t know she exists—yet.

She’s done watching. It’s time he learns the truth.

He belongs to her. And she’ll kill anyone who tries to take him away.

Rain
It was always just me and my mom—until Derek Russo came into our lives. The first time I met his son, Sade, I knew something about him was wrong. He watched me too closely, too intensely, like he could see straight through me. And once our parents married, there was no escaping him.
At first, I blamed the tension on the adjustment—his cruel sister, the elite private school, the feeling that I didn’t belong. But as the years passed, I realized the real problem was Sade. He was always there. Always watching.
The older we got, the worse his fixation became. Beneath his perfect mask was something cold, obsessive, and deeply unsettling. I hoped college would finally put distance between us.
Instead, it only made him worse.
Now Sade has crossed every line, trapping me beneath his control while whispering terrifying promises in the dark.
You’re mine, Rain. You’ll always be mine.
And the most horrifying part? He has no intention of ever letting me go.

Sade
I’ve always known I was different. I learned early how to mimic normal people well enough to blend in, to hide the darkness underneath.
Then I met Rain Baxter.
From the moment I saw her, she became my obsession. When our parents married, fate handed her to me permanently. So I watched her. Protected her. Removed every threat that came too close.
No one ever realized how dangerous I truly was.
Leaving for college nearly destroyed me, but distance only forced me to become smarter. More careful. Rain never understood how completely I’d built my life around her—how deeply trapped she already was.
Now she’s eighteen.
Now she’s finally mine to keep.
Because obsession like mine doesn’t fade.
It consumes.

Will desire fade… or will it turn into obsession?

Dr. Adrienne Volke doesn’t simply sell fragrance; she offers a unique form of control. Her luxury colognes are lauded for seamlessly blending wellness and allure. Yet, they harbor a covert formula she developed in secret—a scent that manipulates desire, rewires loyalty, and transforms obsession into an extraordinary tool.

Power, however, comes with vulnerabilities. Past subjects carry scars, her brother Noah harbors knowledge she presumed was buried, and Silas, a colleague at her company, is beginning to unravel her concealed schemes. With each new revelation, Adrienne becomes more entrenched in her conviction that her grip cannot be broken.

She sought to create an obsession.
She yearned for them to obsess over her.
Yet obsession is complex—and her relentless pursuit of power may ultimately spell her downfall.

"You can't tell me what I can and can't do. I'm not your property!!" I screamed angrily at his face as I tried to release his hold on my wrist.

His lips licked my right shoulder upward to my neck and then he kissed my ear.
I swallowed hard as I was only left with my bra and underwear. Mildly, he took off my bra and then his fingers shred my underwear apart rendering me naked.
I clutched my hands over my chest, even if I wanted to shed tears now, it would be useless and so I just had to surrender to let him do his thing. "Don't hide," he whispered against my ear, his breath sending a shiver down my spine that had nothing to do with pleasure.

Renee didn’t just rebuild her life; she buried pieces of it and called it survival. A farm that runs like a machine, a house full of laughter, a man who stepped in and never once questioned loving a child that wasn’t his. Jake gave her stability, peace, and a future that felt earned rather than stolen. And she let herself believe that if she loved hard enough, the truth would stay exactly where she left it.

But secrets don’t disappear; they settle in your bones. They show up in the quiet moments, in the way she watches Jake with Mark, in the hesitation she swallows every time he says the word “son.” She didn’t lie because she wanted to hurt anyone; she lied because the truth would’ve shattered everything before it ever had a chance to grow. So she chose silence, and built a life on top of it, knowing damn well it wasn’t as solid as it looked.

Then the past refuses to stay dead. One unexpected moment, one undeniable truth staring her in the face, and suddenly the life she protected starts to feel like something she stole. Because this was never just about love, it was about control, fear, and a decision that changed more than one life without giving anyone else a choice. And now the man she erased is standing right in front of her, looking at a child who should’ve been his.

This isn’t a story about a woman caught between two men. It’s about what happens when you build something beautiful on a lie and dare to call it right. Because when the truth finally breaks through, it doesn’t ask who deserves happiness. It takes it, piece by piece, until there’s nothing left but the consequences she tried so hard to outrun.

Some people wear masks. Perhaps their wounds are so ugly that their greatest desire is to avoid looking at them in the reflection of the mirror.

What do they hide behind them?

It’s all about cause and effect, and the past always comes back to claim its price.

"You are mine Gracie... your fears, tears... I'm going to completely shatter you until you know nothing else but my name

"I... I'm not yours "I stuttered

His gaze grew noticeably darker at my words

"I dare you to say that again," he said taking a threatening step closer.

I opened my mouth but no words came out, next thing I was flattened between him and the wall

My body shuddered at his domineering look

"you belong to me... Your body... Your soul... I'll enjoy marking you again.... and again" he whispered, his teeth grazing lightly on my neck

How did I get to this situation, was there no way out?

He'd already broke me... Took my virginity... What else does he want from me?

Graciela Evans was just an average nerd struggling through high school, her only wish was to get a good life what happens when she becomes the target of their school's infamous bad boy...

Hayden Mcandrew

She owes him a debt, and he was going to make her repay it

Not even a cent less.

"Last chance. If you decide to stay, pay attention... my name will never leave your head again."

Dominic’s voice was a low growl, vibrating through the empty, renovation-smelling office. He stood there, a masterpiece of temptation in a gray suit, undoing his tie with a slowness that made my knees weak. I should have run. I should have remembered I was just a scholarship intern and he was the billionaire CMO of the entire university. But I didn't. "I can’t do it anymore either..." I whispered, and that was the spark that blew up the powder keg.

I jumped into his lap, wrapping my legs around his waist, kissing him like my life depended on burning in that ember. He pinned me against the wall, his hands claiming my body, sliding my dress up. "I want you naked," he demanded, his mouth devouring my neck. He carried me to the table by the window, the city lights of São Paulo witnessing our madness. He was dangerous, illicit, and exactly what I craved. But as he unbuttoned my shirt, exposing me to his hungry gaze, I realized this wasn't just lust. It was a freefall into a world I wasn't ready for. "I have a request," he murmured, his eyes darkening with a perverted promise. "That mouth around my cock..."

Isabella Kensington's dream came true when she secured an internship and scholarship at the prestigious international university, WIS University. But the breathtakingly handsome man she encountered in the elevator—Dominic Whitmore—turned out to be the company's CMO and the cousin of her cousin's boyfriend.
An irresistible, fatal attraction ignited between them. From their electric exchange in the elevator to a wild night in the unfinished office, they shattered every rule.

Brixton isn’t like the rest of his kind—bloodthirsty, cruel, and reckless. He's powerful, calculating, and terribly bored. For centuries, he’s watched humans make fools of themselves, disgusted by their weakness, pettiness, and stupidity. So when his father, the ancient vampire king, demands that Brixton claim a human slave before the night ends—or have one chosen for him—he's infuriated. He doesn’t want just anyone. He wants someone... different.

From his perch high above the city, Brixton watches the world below with disdain—until a woman catches his eye.

She isn’t afraid. Even when stabbed while protecting a stranger, she dies with a strange kind of strength. She bleeds, yes, but her spirit doesn't falter. And that... that fascinates him.

When Brixton retrieves her dying body, he's stunned by what he discovers in her memories. She’s not just brave—she’s something else entirely. Something forgotten. Something powerful. Something dangerous.

To his father, she’ll be just another slave.
To Brixton, she’s the beginning of an obsession.

But reviving her may come at a cost. And what he doesn’t know is—she may never be the one truly under his control.

"It was a mistake! I apologized already," feeling so terrified as I moved backward.

"You should have known me better than this, little sparrow," He chuckled deeply, his gaze fixed on me.

"Lucas please!" I cried, now stopped by the wall as my heart beats faintly.

"Don't worry it's just a little game, you and I will play, you'll love it, little sparrow," He smirked.

I knew this was a trick, Ben lied when he said he wouldn't hurt me and I stupidly fell into the trap.

Now, I was alone with him and in his room.

I think this is the time for me to announce my funeral...

"Strip!" His cold voice snapped me out,as he stared at me with a deadpan expression while I gazed at him in ultra shock.


Camilla Evans is a gentle nerd in her finals at Watermark Highschool. As a nerd, the stereotypical notion of her wearing thick rimmed glasses, out-of-vogue clothes and shoes which were eighty percent of the time, twice her size still stands.

Having been at the bottom of the food chain in Watermark Highschool, Camilla was liable to predators and the most annoying one of them all went by the name, Lucas Liam.

Camilla had no idea why the hottest guy in school would even spare her a glance not to mention actually spending the whole day bullying and teasing her to no end.

Could there be something else to these false acts of bully and teases from Lucas?

Find out what happens when the Cheerleader, Jenny Layton put Camilla's life at stake?

Will she be able to handle all the torments she's passing through especially when her mum died and her sister left her behind?

I just had the most amazing sex with a stranger.

Not just any stranger—Liam fucking Rockwell.

My sister’s boss.

My breath hitched as I turned to look at him, my fingers itching to brush the messy strands from his face. But when his eyes fluttered open—icy blue, sharp with recognition—my whole body went rigid.

He knew me.

Oh God.

“Get off,” he spat, his voice laced with venom.

Well, that’s one way to ruin a morning.

Twin sisters, one forbidden mistake.

Avery and Evelyn are Very identical twins, their bond unbreakable despite their differences. But when Avery had a reckless night with Evelyn’s boss threatens to shatter everything, secrets unravel, and loyalties are tested.

Now, they must choose—family or love, truth or betrayal.

Will they find their way back to each other, or will this one night ruin everything?

My world shattered the night my father was arrested for economic crimes and drug trafficking.
Everything we owned was auctioned off. My mother collapsed with a heart attack. My brother Noah dropped out of college to work multiple jobs—all so I could keep dancing.
At school, I went from prima ballerina to pariah overnight. The girl who once owned the stage, now, couldn't walk down a hallway without whispers following her.
Then Maverick crashed into my life.
The campus hockey star. Untouchable. Worshipped. And I totaled his $150,000 car while working as a designated driver.
The damage? More money than I'd see in five years.
Left with no other choice, I agreed to his terms—a three-month arrangement to clear the debt. Three months to be his girlfriend.
I thought I could endure it—just three months and I'd be free.
But somewhere along the way, my heart began to lose its way. Every glance he cast my direction made me feel like someone he'd loved for years, not a girl paying off a debt.
When those three months ended, would I truly be able to walk away?

Torn between guilt and survival, Alessia faces an impossible choice: avenging her family’s brutal murder or fleeing from the deadly grasps of the mafia.
Her life was turned upside down the night she defied her father’s orders and snuck out of the mansion with her friend, Ella, for a night of clubbing.
Returning home after a heartbreaking one-night stand with Dominic, who discarded her like a whore, she found her family brutally murdered.
As the sole survivor, Alessia is haunted by the horrific events of that night. The weight of hidden truths and unanswered questions becomes almost unbearable as she struggles to piece together the shattered fragments of her life.
Who could have committed such a heinous act?
And will she be able to forgive once she uncovers the truth?
Join Alessia on a harrowing journey to uncover the secrets behind her family’s murder and discover what it truly means to be a mafia princess.

"Tell me, my sweet Mila, do you want me to stop?"
"No!" I gasp.
"Good, because no matter what, no matter who walks in, I won't," He promised.


Killian Knight was many things, dangerous, a certified killer, devastatingly handsome, my father's business partner and married. He was not just off limits, he was forbidden, he was a sin and I was tempted enough to risk the hell fire. He was everything that could ruin me and my body, my mind and my soul; everything was ready for it.
Mila Anderson's life takes an unexpected turn when she succumbs to the magnetic allure of her father's enigmatic and dangerous mafia associate.
What she doesn't know is that Killian Knight has the power to unravel everything she's carefully built. One secret revealed could bring it all crashing down.
For Killian, one night with Mila changes everything. She's everything he desires, yet she comes with her own web of secrets—and he's determined to uncover every single one.

"Big Kai?"

He didn't respond but moved his eyes around the room, scanning the place.

"Wha...what are you doing here?"

His icy blue eyes returned to me, sending shivers down my spine. Then further dropped to my dress and then back to my eyes.

"The shit going on downstairs, what does it mean?" he asked, making my legs as weak as they are eager to flee.

"It's....it my wedding,"

He scoffed darkly. "Excuse me?"

I swallowed. "I am......getting married,"

He let out a humorless laugh, looking away and giving me lesser comfort. He looked at me with a demonic frown.

Terror washed me.

"Every single motherfucker/human being here, be it adult or child, including you, will burn before that happens,"

〽️〽️〽️

The quiet but pathetic life of Twenty-year-old Mia Jefferson changed the night she found a few months old interracial baby boy abandoned in a dumpster on her way home. She saved him and kept him in her care for almost a month until she was taken by a deadly gang who accused her of abduction. She thought it was it for her until the ruthless gang leader, Nathaniel Kincaid, known on the streets as Big Kai and the father of the baby appeared and added to her punishment. At the point when Mia is about to give up, Nathaniel makes her his baby's nanny as the only way to convince him that she is not the abductor. As she picked up her care for the baby, Nathaniel watched her every move consistently, placing his heart in a dark and passionate risk.

"Is my Seraphina afraid of me? "

She pressed her shivering naked body more against the wall to prevent getting touched by the bare skin of the owner of that raspily husky voice .

"So you don't want me to touch you? But you had no problem getting touched by him, Seraphina? "

Her eyes filled with tears hearing his words because her mind immediately recalled the face of her friend and how brutally he had killed him.

"Then why are you afraid of getting touched by me, Princess?"

She unlatched her lashes and immediately tried to free herself from him but her body turned into ice when he pinned her wrists against the wall and pressed his drenched body against her.

"Hadn't I fucking warned you to stay away from him? But no, my little princess wanted to defy me? And look, her defiance made me to take another life, "
A soul quivering smirk crept on his lips by watching the terror emerging into her alluring azure eyes .

"So ,I guess now we have to make her obey me and for that, I have a very precious way to teach her, " His hand roamed over her naked skin.

"A forbidden way which will hurt my princess a lot, " He squeezed her soft bosoms, making her whimper.

"But the more pain she will feel, the more pleasure she is going to get through that way, " He chuckled when he found her struggling, like a little afraid kitten.

"The more you will fight it, the more it's going to hurt, Princess," His hand went down to her lower abdomen

And her blood drenched from her body when he gently grazed his knuckles against her pelvic line .

"You're mine," His hand went down more to taint her purity.

"You belong to Arzal Darius Grayson, Sera."

"Don't clutch your thighs," he said with the same smirk.

Who said I'm clutching my thighs? I answer.

So it means you are not wet, right?? He asked with a smirk.

Okay, then let me check whether you are wet or not. Saying this, he pulls my dress up and is about to put his hand in my underwear when I stop him.

No, I can't let him check because I'm dumb and wet.

Blurb

“Have you ever considered the possibility that the universe sometimes sends your nemesis in form of a person? To deal with you for all the wrongs you have ever committed.”

I don’t answer that question mainly because I don’t know how to. I feel his stare hot against the side of my face, the hatred surging through my skin. I am compelled to speak.

“No… I haven’t”. My voice is shaky, betraying me. I keep my stare trained on the textbook in front of me as I say, “I haven’t done that many wrongs”

I hear his low laugh. He is amused by my confidence. Or audacity. “I think you have”. He says with a sly grin. “And your nemesis has only just begun his work.”

I peel my eyes from the book slowly to stare at him. His gaze is hard, his face stoic. “Who…”. My words trail off but he gets it. He knows what I am asking him.

Who is my nemesis?

The smile is back on his face, somehow more menacing than a hard frown as he says his next words,

“Me.”

Greytown is a city of vices, and Laurette has spent her life staying invisible to survive it. But one reckless moment draws the attention of Hosea Larsen, the dangerous heir to a gang empire.

When a secret ties her fate to his, Laurette is forced into his world, where fear, obsession, and something far more dangerous begin to grow.
Hosea was supposed to break her.
Instead, she becomes his only weakness.

In a town ruled by violence and revenge, loving him might cost her everything… or be the only thing that saves them both.

Blind. Sold. Claimed by the wrong man.
At eighteen, Amelia was nothing—until two powerful men decided she belonged to them.
One wanted to own her. The other would burn the world to keep her.

Dragged into the blood-soaked empire of the Santoro mafia, Amelia becomes a pawn in a brutal power game. Jeremy Santoro—the cold, dangerously seductive heir—should have ignored her.

Instead, he touched her.

And that one mistake?
Turned her into his obsession.

Hiding inside Crimson, a bar where secrets are currency and men are monsters, Amelia survives by staying invisible—until the night she slaps a stranger for kissing her… and feels a voice she can’t forget.

Jeremy.

When his ruthless uncle tries to claim her as property, Jeremy snaps.

He takes her.

Not as a lover.
Not as a savior.
But as something far more dangerous—

His.

Locked inside his mansion as his personal maid, Amelia quickly learns the truth: Jeremy is engaged to another woman. A powerful alliance. A future already decided.

But he still comes to her at night.

Still touches her like she’s the only thing he’ll ever need.
Still risks everything… just to hear her say his name.

And when Amelia discovers she’s carrying his child—
the game changes.

Because she was never just a blind girl pulled from the gutter.

She is the missing heir to a bloodline powerful enough to destroy the Santoro empire from within.

Now three crime families are hunting her.
Jeremy’s bride wants her dead.
His uncle wants her broken.

And Jeremy?

He’s already chosen.

Her.

Even if it means betraying his name, his blood, and the empire he was born to rule.

In a world where power is everything, Amelia was invisible.
Now she’s the most dangerous woman alive.

"I dare you to kiss any boy in this club Bluey"Sasha's friend said with a smirk and my heart skipped a beat immediately.
This is the reason why I don't do truth or dare,I thought and stood from the chair walking away from the table that Sasha and her friends surrounded.

I told her that I don't want to come to this club but she insisted that it'll be fine. Now look,I'm about to give a stranger my first kiss,I thought and turned back staring at her.

"You can do this ...... Just pick any in the club, kiss him and then walk away"She assured and I glared at her before turning back.

I looked around walking slowly and all the guys I was seeing were either making out with a girl or they're so drunk. I searched and then my eyes finally fell on a man.

He was sitting quietly sipping from a glass of bear in his hand in the dark side of the club and then I didn't even know when I walked to him.

He looked up at me coldly as he felt my presence and believe me he is drop gorgeous. He had some tattoos on his arm and he had this beautiful green eyes......but I noticed he had this cold look in his eyes giving me chills.

I turned back one more time and glanced at the girls and they winked at me beconing on me to kiss him.
I looked down at the strange man who was still staring coldly at me and bit my lips. I sighed and immediately kissed the stranger,and strangely he reciprocated the kiss making me surprised. I immediately broke the kiss and muttered a "I'm so sorry sir" Before running out of the club without looking back.

If only I knew that was the biggest mistake of my life and that was going to be the start of my predicament.
.
.
.
What happened when she was forced to the club by her crazy bestfriend and was dared to kiss any stranger in the club.What happened when she did,but with the deadly dangerous Assasin.

"I'm not scared of you and I'd never be like others who always want to worship the ground you step on," I spat, my shoulders trembling with rage.

A smirk lit up his eyes as he took a step closer to me. "And that's very stupid of you," he whispered, grabbing my chin. "Because if I were you, I'd know better than to step into a furnace that can consume you, the way you're doing now."

After years of hiding in the shadows, a simple act of kindness was all she needed to bring all she thought she left behind crashing back to her present.

Her father, who happened to be her worst childhood nightmare, came back into her life and gave her to task of taking down the country's most elite football player, or risk the lives of her new family.

She began her mission as his team's assistant nurse, but with a secret.

Little did she know that he held secrets of his own, far greater than she realized and those secrets would either be the end of them or the very thing that could save them both. And perhaps, their world as they know it.
