Sweet But a psycho: loving her craziness
In a world where loyalty and power reign supreme, Adriana Santoro a fiery and determined young woman, finds herself caught in the crossfire of the ruthless Mafia world when she crosses paths with Lorenzo Russo, the devil himself.
The city was plagued by a mysterious epidemic of young women vanishing, only to return with no recollection of their ordeal. The Lorenzo gang, notorious for their brutal tactics, was behind this operation. Adriana, a fiery and determined young woman, found herself caught in their web during one of their ruthless hunts. Her sharp tongue and quick wit often put her at odds with her captors, but she managed to escape their paws time after time.
Lorenzo, the gang's leader, was driven by a dark past. Enslaved by the Mafia godfather who had murdered his family, he was trapped in a world of violence and loyalty. His mantra was simple: if you can't beat them, join them. But everything changed when he met Adriana. As they clashed, he began to see her in a different light, and his icy exterior started to crack.
Meanwhile Adriana's parents who she had believed were just pure business moguls, had secrets of their own, and Adriana's relationship with Lorenzo threatened to expose them. Things got a lot more messier when the mob princess obsession with Lorenzo had to play out. To make matters worse Lorenzo's rival was also in love with the mob princess.
As tensions escalated, Adriana found herself trapped between her loyalty to her family and her growing feelings for Lorenzo. The truth about her parents' past was about to be revealed, and it would change everything. The secrets they had kept hidden for so long would soon come to light, threatening to destroy everything they had built.

Chapter: Chapter 21: Taming a PsychoWith the speed of light, Adriana scrambled to her feet.Pain shot through her knees, and she nearly stumbled. She caught herself against the wall, biting back a cry.Lorenzo watched without offering assistance."Careful," he said mildly. "I'd hate for you to injure yourself before you complete your new duties"Adriana turned towards him, her face burning with rage.For one wild moment, she imagined grabbing him by the collar and shaking every ounce of cruelty out of his body.Then she remembered Kai.Kai lying in bed with his injuries.Kai smiling, when she had returned from the mission.Kai calling, her Red Devil and telling her how proud he was.Kai, who had already suffered enough because she had dragged him into a world neither of them truly understood.Her anger did not disappear.It became something sharper.Something she would have to swallow."Yes, sir," she whispered.Lorenzo smiled."There. You can learn"She turned and hurried down the corridor.Behind her, Lorenzo called

Chapter: Chapter 20: Bent not brokenKai cast Rex annoyed look, then he grabbed a jacket, slipped it over his shoulders, and quietly left the dormitory.The corridor was dimly lit, and the compound had settled into an uneasy silence. The rain had softened slightly, but the ground outside remained soaked.Kai moved slowly, one hand pressed against his injured side.Every few steps, he had to stop and catch his breath.By the time he reached the corridor leading to Lorenzo's suite, he was already regretting every decision that had brought him there.Then he saw her.Adriana was still kneeling beside the door.Kai stopped dead.For a moment, he couldn't even process what he was seeing.Her head was bowed slightly, and her red hair hung in damp strands around her face. Her shoulders trembled occasionally from the cold, but her back remained straight.She looked exhausted.She looked miserable.And she looked furious enough to murder someone.Kai's chest tightened."Oh, Adriana," he whispered.He took a step forward.Then ano

Chapter: Chapter 19: A Devil's GameThe rain showed no mercy.It came down in heavy sheets, hammering the courtyard and turning the once-neat walkways into shallow streams. The wind howled through the compound, rattling the windows and forcing the few men still moving around outside to hurry towards shelter.Yet, beside Lorenzo Russo's suite, Adriana remained on her knees.By now her fingers had gone numb. The cold had sweeped through her clothes, settling into her bones, while her knees throbbed from the unforgiving floor beneath them. Her short red hair, which she had carefully arranged before leaving the dorm, was now a complete disaster. Strands clung to her cheeks and forehead, plastered against her skin by the rain that had blown through the open corridor.She looked like a woman who had crawled out of a battlefield and was now seriously considering dragging the entire battlefield down with her.And perhaps she was."Psychopath," she muttered under her breath.A gust of wind swept through the corridor.She shiver

Chapter: Chapter 18: The Devil's PunishmentAdriana and Kai swallowed emptiness as the doorknob turned.Neither of them dared to speak.The door creaked open, and a pair of polished black shoes appeared at the entrance. A familiar figure stepped inside, his expression so cold that the temperature in the room seemed to drop several degrees.Rex.Both of them released the breath they had been holding.Unfortunately, their relief was short-lived."I've been gone for less than three days," Rex announced, shutting the door behind him, "and you two have already managed to turn this place into a disaster zone, what the fuck have you guys done now"Kai immediately sank deeper into his pillows.Adriana, on the other hand, remained seated with the innocent expression of someone who had absolutely nothing to do with the trouble in question.Rex looked at Kai first."And you"Kai blinked. " What about Me?""No, the ghost, standing behind you"Kai glanced over his shoulder before realizing Rex was being sarcastic."Oh"Rex pinched the brid

Chapter: Chapter 17: Looming Troublel As the gang, prepared to move, Victor climbed into the vehicle ahead of Adriana and raised a hand, signalling the convoy to move.One by one, the engines roared to life.Adriana eased her foot onto the accelerator and followed the others out of the warehouse compound. The sky was beginning to lighten, a thin grey line spreading across the horizon, but dawn was still a long way from breaking.As the vehicles rolled through the deserted industrial roads, she kept her eyes fixed ahead.She didn't speak. She didn't turn around. She didn't do anything that might draw attention to herself.For once, silence was her greatest ally.The convoy reached the compound without further incident.The moment the gates swung open, the vehicles drove into the courtyard, where several men were already waiting. The shipment was unloaded under Herod's supervision, and the recovered crates were carried into the secured storage room.Adriana parked the vehicle and climbed out, stretching her stiff fingers

Chapter: Chapter 16: False HopeAdriana's attention returned back to the road.And that was when she noticed the vehicle approaching from the opposite end of the street.It had no headlights.It moved slowly, almost silently, emerging from the darkness like a shadow.Adriana frowned.The vehicle was not on Kai's map.It was not part of the plan.And it was moving directly toward Lorenzo's position.She reached for the radio.Before she could press the button, a sudden flash illuminated the warehouse entrance.The approaching vehicle accelerated.Adriana's eyes widened."Lorenzo!"The name escaped her.She threw open the door.And ran.The warehouse was a nightmare of smoke, shouting, and gunfire.Adriana kept low as she moved between abandoned equipment and stacked crates.She could hear men shouting instructions, but the words blurred together.All she could see was Lorenzo.He had taken cover behind a concrete pillar near the loading bay.Two of his men were pinned down several metres away.The approaching vehicl
