LOGINI'm going to speed things up a little from here on out, there will be a few small time skips along the way. Don't worry, I'll still be covering all the important moments, I just don't want to drag out parts of the timeline that don't need entire chapters dedicated to them. Also, I think I needed a bit of a creative reset. For years, I've been writing violent, obsessive, dark romances, and as much as I love them, constantly living in those worlds can be mentally exhausting. This time, I wanted to focus more on the romance, the characters, and the relationship itself. Don't worry, the action & drama are still coming. 😭 But for once, I wanted to write something a little softer and spend less time in the darkness. I hope you've been enjoying this story despite it being a little different from my usual books. ❤️
Adriano slowly lifted his boot, letting the blood drip off the leather onto the concrete as his stare swept across the rest. "Now," he whispered, a terrifying smile finally touching the corners of his lips, "Who else feels like telling me a story?" Morgan started sobbing violently. I shook my h
No, no! "I wasn't even there when they hurt the girl!" Cole yelled, "They brought her to me already bleeding! Brianna was the one who hit her in the head! She used a heavy wooden club from the garage! They carried her in here like a sack of rocks, and I was the one who washed the blood off her fac
Cole’s chest heaved, his eyes turned frantic, like a rat looking for a hole in the wall. "I know how Chicago works. You don't survive in this city by picking a fight with the Capones," he slowly shook his head, "I'm not suicidal." My stomach twisted. No. He was lying. I made a desperate sound
"Move!" Capone guards surged forward with frightening speed. Cole's men reached for their weapons but they never got the chance. One guard twisted a man's arm behind his back before he had even cleared his waistband. Another kicked a pistol across the concrete floor. Boots thundered in every dire
I looked at Cole again. He wasn't even watching us. He was checking his phone. Rage exploded inside me, "MMPH!" I lunged forward as far as the ropes allowed. "If she keeps doing that," he said calmly, "she'll reopen the wound." I wanted to claw his face apart. I wanted to scream. Instead, anoth
Gianna ━⊰ ❦ ⊱━ Pain. That was the first thing I felt. It was a deep, heavy ache that pulsed through the back of my head. It throbbed with every heartbeat, every breath, every tiny movement. A quiet whimper escaped me before I even opened my eyes. The world slowly came into focus. The ceiling a
He moved fast, and crawled up the mattress, his shadow blocking out the morning light of the bedroom. He hovered over me, his knees settling on either side of my face, pinning my head between his thighs. I looked up through the dark strands of my hair. His cock was standing completely straight, pul
"What did he say to you?" I pushed, my heart giving a small, nervous twitch. I needed to know, last night, he took a shower and slept almost instantly the moment I lay in his arms, "Raphael, please. Tell me what he said." Instead of answering with words, Raphael’s eyes went dark. He slid his hand d
"They stayed still!" I sobbed, the words tumbling out of my mouth as I stared at the black tool in his hand. I was shaking so hard the metal chair was rattling against the floor. "They stayed still, I swear! Please, don't—" ZZZTT. He pressed the prongs against my left thigh this time. The shock h
"There is no plan," I said, "And you need to lower your fucking voice before I lower it for you." "I won't lower shit, Raph," Adriano hissed back, "You are acting like a fool. You are risking everything we have built. This whole thing cannot happen. Have you even spent one single second thinking ab
