His Ruin
Smut Warning: This story contains explicit sexual content, obsession, stalking, power play, and dark themes.
He was supposed to destroy her. Instead, he became addicted to her.
Drisana Varma has spent her life as a traded pawn in Chicago’s brutal mafia underworld. Controlled. Manipulated. Used. So she became the ultimate player, cold, calculating, always three steps ahead. No man has ever managed to break her.
Until Armani Moretti.
The quiet, dangerous transfer student who knows things he shouldn’t. He mentions her private habits. He appears exactly when she needs him. When Drisana finally connects the dots, the truth is worse than she feared.
He is her faceless stalker.
He has been waiting for the perfect moment to claim her.
She should run. Instead, she blackmails him into a fake relationship contract and demands to move into his apartment, stepping willingly into the monster’s cage.
What starts as her calculated game of power quickly becomes something far more dangerous and addictive. Behind the signed clauses and careful rules, the mask falls away. Nights turn raw and filthy. Rough hands pinning her down. Possessive growls against her throat. Brutal, claiming sex that leaves her bruised, dripping, and shamefully begging for the man who has stalked her for years.
He doesn’t just want her body.
He wants to own her completely, her fear, her pleasure, her every breath.
But the deeper they fall into this twisted, all-consuming obsession, the closer they get to a devastating truth. A buried secret involving a dead woman that connects them both in ways neither could have imagined. A lie powerful enough to destroy two mafia empires… and the dangerous love that was never supposed to exist.

Chapter: Chapter 40DrisanaThe next morning, I woke to sunlight spilling through the curtains. I lay there and stared at the ceiling.My mind was quiet.No nightmares or panic or replaying the attack over and over.Then last night crept back into my mind, Armani's trembling voice."...it's driving me insane."My cheeks warmed. I buried my face in the pillow.No.Stop thinking about it. It didn't mean anything. We had cleared the misunderstanding between us.That was all.Anyone would have felt relieved after finally saying everything they'd kept bottled up.That strange feeling in my chest? Relief. Nothing more.Definitely not—"No."I shook my head at myself. I wasn't falling for Armani Rossi. That would be ridiculous. Completely ridiculous. And absurd. A year. That was all this marriage had ever been. One year. After that, we’d go our separate ways. I wasn't about to complicate everything because we'd almost kissed.Almost.Nothing had actually happened.The thought somehow made my stomach flutter an

Chapter: Chapter 39Drisana "It..." He closed his eyes. "...it's driving me insane."The words hung between us.This… this wasn't the Armani Rossi I'd come to know.His shoulders, usually so straight and composed, seemed weighed down by something invisible. His breathing had become uneven, his voice rough around the edges.How long had he been carrying all of this by himself?Before I could gather my thoughts, he reached for my hand. I thought he was going to hold it.Instead… he placed my palm against his chest."Hit me."My eyes widened, "What?""If it'll make you feel better..."His voice barely sounded like his own."Hit me.""No."He gave a humorless laugh.Then, before I could pull away, he wrapped his hand over mine and struck his own chest with it.The dull thud echoed through the hallway."Armani!"He hit his chest again. Harder this time. "Stop!"He didn't. It was as though he couldn't hear me anymore. Every word he'd buried over the past few days kept spilling out. The next hit was on his fa

Chapter: Chapter 38ArmaniHer eyes widened, "...What?""I said let it go."A bitter laugh escaped her. "That's your solution?""My solution is keeping you safe. My solution is making sure you never have to go through something like that again."She pushed her plate away."So I'm just supposed to pretend it never happened?""No. But you don't need to chase every answer.""Why not?""Because the last time you did..." I stopped. The memories returned before I could stop them."...you almost didn't come home."The words hung heavily between us. She lowered her eyes."I know.”"I don't think you do." I leaned forward, "If you did… you wouldn't be trying to walk back into another storm."She looked up sharply."So what am I supposed to do? Sit here? Wait? Hope whoever did this decides to leave me alone and never come back for more?"She paused and then continued, "I can't. I've spent my entire life waiting for people to save me. My father. Carter. My so-called friends. They all made choices for me. I'm done

Chapter: Chapter 37Armani "Who was on the phone?"Her voice pulled me out of my thoughts. I turned around.She stood just outside the bathroom, her damp hair falling over one shoulder. The oversized T-shirt she wore nearly swallowed her whole, stopping just above her knees. The cast on her arm looked painfully out of place against the soft fabric.For a second, I looked at her. She had spoken first. It was such a small thing. Yet somehow, it felt like we'd crossed a distance neither of us had known how to bridge.I slipped my phone into my pocket."Someone from the security company."A faint crease appeared between her brows. "They called you?"I nodded, "They were following up.""Did they find something?"I hesitated, "Not yet."She accepted the answer with a small nod, though I could tell her mind was already trying to fit the missing pieces together.The room settled into another stretch of silence.I hated it. I hated what we'd become. There was a time when silence between us had meant comfort. No

Chapter: Chapter 36ArmaniI watched Drisana from the corner of my eye.Her fingers remained tightly wrapped around the handle of her handbag. She was trying to keep herself composed, but I could see the tension creeping into her shoulders.Her lips parted, but no words came.Mr. Harris waited patiently, pen poised above the report. His gaze drifted from Drisana to me. Our eyes met. Something shifted in his expression. The confidence he’d carried throughout the meeting faltered.His posture stiffened. A flicker of uncertainty crossed his face before he quickly looked back down at the file in front of him.His fingers tightened around his pen.He cleared his throat.“I only ask because understanding the attackers’ motive may help us determine whether this was a targeted incident or—”“Mr. Harris.”My voice was calm. He swallowed, “Yes… Mr. Rossi?”I leaned back in my chair, studying him for a long moment before speaking again.“Forgive me if I’m mistaken.”His Adam’s apple bobbed.“But this is beginning

Chapter: Chapter 35Drisana Neither of us moved.The underground parking garage seemed to fall eerily quiet around us.His driver's window had rolled down completely, yet Armani remained exactly where he was, one hand resting on the steering wheel, the other on the armrest. His dark eyes never left mine.How long had he been sitting there?Five minutes? Ten? An hour?Knowing Armani, it could have been longer.Behind me, Ethan and Noah remained respectfully silent. I looked at them briefly before turning my attention back to the black Rolls-Royce.My heart wouldn't stop pounding. After everything that had happened… After yesterday… I hadn't expected to see him here.The silence stretched between us until I began wondering if he had changed his mind.Then, finally, he spoke. "Get in."He said calmly as though we'd spoken only minutes ago instead of barely speaking at all since the attack.I hesitated. I didn't know what happened after I got inside.What would we talk about? Would we pretend yesterday ne
