Selene’s POV

My heels clicked against the marble floor as I crossed to the counter at a corner of the bar. He was already there, sitting like he owned the world.

Of course, he just couldn’t refuse my proposal to meet.

Julian Crane.

He looked the same—sharp jawline, alongside his dark hair falling just enough into his eyes to seem dangerous without trying.

His lips were curved in that lazy smile that had once been pressed against every inch of me. Once upon a time, before Kade Valen made his wa

  • A contract with the ruthless mafia billionaire    When Love Hates

    Lia’s POVKade stepped in wearing only black sweatpants. His broad chest, strong arms, and messy dark hair made my heart race. He looked powerful and hungry.“You’re awake,” he said. His grey eyes moved slowly over my body. “Good.”He crossed the room in two steps and pulled me into his arms. His skin was warm. He kissed my neck, then my lips, hard and deep. Heat flooded my body.“Kade… we should talk,” I whispered.“Later,” he growled against my mouth.He lifted me like I weighed nothing and carried me straight into the huge bathroom, my heart pounding wildly. Hot water poured from the massive showerhead the moment he turned it on, filling the space with steam. He set me on my feet and the sheet slipped off my body, pooling at my ankles. Before I could even catch my breath, Kade pushed me back against the cool tiles, his mouth claiming mine in a deep, hungry kiss that left me dizzy.His hands were everywhere at once, sliding over my wet skin with raw need. He cupped my breasts, his

  • A contract with the ruthless mafia billionaire    Tangled Vows

    Lia’s POVI lay in the big soft bed, my body still warm and tired from what we had just done. The silk sheets felt cool against my skin. The room was quiet except for our breathing. Kade’s strong arm rested across my waist, holding me close. His chest pressed against my back. I could smell his cologne – dark and woody.My mind would not stay quiet. I turned around in his arms so I could look at his face. His grey eyes watched me. They looked serious.“Why won’t you let me go?” I asked softly. My voice was still a little rough. “You are supposed to marry Selene. Your families have planned it for years. But you kidnapped me from the docks before I could leave with Julian. What is your plan, Kade? Keep me hidden here forever?”Kade did not speak at first. His fingers moved slowly down my back. It sent small shivers through me. He looked at me like he was thinking hard about what to say.“I am not marrying Selene,” he said in a calm, strong voice.I sat up quickly. The sheet fell to my wa

  • A contract with the ruthless mafia billionaire    The Start Of War

    Julian’s POV“Where the fuck is she?!”My voice echoed through the sprawling penthouse like a gunshot. I stormed forward, fists clenched so tight my knuckles cracked. Selene sat there on her pristine white sofa, legs crossed elegantly, that signature smirk playing on her lips like this was all some amusing game.She took a slow sip of her wine, completely unbothered. “Julian, darling. You’re going to have to be more specific. Where is who?”“Don’t play dumb with me, Selene!” I roared, closing the distance between us. “Lia is gone. Her suitcase was dumped in the hallway. Her phone is switched off. She was supposed to meet me ten minutes ago so we could leave the country. Now tell me what the hell you did with her!”Selene arched a perfectly groomed eyebrow, setting her glass down on the marble table with a soft clink. “Lia’s missing? Oh no… how tragic.” Her tone dripped with sarcasm. “And you immediately assume I had something to do with it? That’s rather insulting.”I laughed bitterly

  • A contract with the ruthless mafia billionaire    Vanished

    Julian’s POVThe city traffic had been kinder than usual, almost like the universe was finally giving us a break. I glanced at the dashboard clock—right on time. Ten minutes, just like I’d told Lia. My fingers drummed lightly on the steering wheel as I pulled into the underground parking of her building, a small smile tugging at my lips despite the nerves twisting in my stomach.This was it. Today we were leaving everything behind. The drama, the danger, the shadow of Kade Vander that had loomed over us for far too long. A new country, a fresh start. Just Lia and me. I could already picture her beside me on the plane, her head on my shoulder, finally breathing easy for the first time in months.I grabbed the bouquet of white lilies from the passenger seat—her favorite—and headed up to her floor. The elevator ride felt longer than usual. When the doors opened, my smile faltered.The hallway wasn’t empty.Lia’s suitcase lay abandoned in the middle of the corridor, tilted on its side l

  • A contract with the ruthless mafia billionaire    A Rough Lesson

    Lia’s POVMy back was still pressed against the cool wall, wrists pinned above my head in Kade’s iron grip, when the last of my resistance shattered.His mouth claimed mine again—harder this time, deeper, like he was pouring every ounce of pent-up fury and possession into the kiss. I moaned against his lips, the sound muffled and desperate. My body betrayed me completely, arching into him even as my mind screamed that this was wrong. Julian was waiting for me to be on a plane right now.But Kade didn’t care about any of that.“You’re mine,” he growled against my mouth, biting my lower lip hard enough to sting. “Say it.”I shook my head, panting. “No—”He spun me around so fast the room blurred. My chest slammed against the wall, his powerful body molding to my back. One large hand kept my wrists trapped high above me while the other yanked my blouse open with a sharp rip of fabric. Buttons scattered across the marble floor like tiny casualties.“Kade—” I gasped.His hand slid inside t

  • A contract with the ruthless mafia billionaire    Mine To Keep

    Lia’s POVMy head throbbed like someone had taken a hammer to my skull.I groaned, eyelids heavy as lead, and tried to lift my hand to my face. The movement sent a fresh wave of nausea rolling through me. Everything felt wrong—the air too cool, the sheets too soft, the silence too complete. My lashes fluttered open, and for a second, the world was nothing but blurred gold and cream.This wasn’t my apartment.I bolted upright, heart slamming against my ribs. The room spun for a moment before settling into sharp, expensive focus. A massive four-poster bed with black silk sheets. Floor-to-ceiling windows draped in heavy velvet curtains that blocked out most of the light. Crystal chandeliers hung from a ceiling painted with delicate gold filigree. On the nightstand sat a vase of blood-red roses so perfect they looked artificial.This was a cage wrapped in luxury.Memories slammed into me one after another. The hallway. The leather glove over my mouth. The sickeningly sweet smell of chlor

    Lia’s POV“Go on. Shoot her.” Dante hissed, pacing behind Noah like a devil in silk. His smirk grew wider now, “Show me how much you really hate her. Show me she means nothing.”Noah’s fingers curled around the gun, his eyes didn’t meet mine at first. They stayed glued to the floor, like he was a

    Lia’s POVNoah stood at the doorway like a ghost, nothing empty about the look in his eyes. They were sharp and cold. Maybe this was just a trick that Dante or Selene is playing on me.They had forced him to stand there like a puppet. But his silence….told me otherwise. I had known Noah all my life

  • A contract with the ruthless mafia billionaire    “I Love you…. Kade Valen.”

    Lia’s POVScreams, shouts, and the metallic echo of bullets collide with steel, filling every corner of the room until my ears ring. “Kade…” I barely completed my words before his hand gripped my wrist.Dragging me down the corridor as shatters of wood rained from bullets chewing through every corn
