The river seemed endless, its relentless current slicing through the dense forest like an unyielding force of nature. Sasha and Alex trudged along its edge, their breaths ragged, the adrenaline of their escape ebbing away and leaving behind an aching exhaustion.

The trees around them were thick, a natural shield against anyone who might have followed, but it wasn’t enough to ease the tension that coiled in Sasha’s chest. Marco’s sacrifice weighed heavily on her, and the gnawing guilt was almost as unbearable as the fear of what lay ahead.

Alex’s grip on her hand never faltered as they moved deeper into the woods. Even though his own strength was waning, he wouldn’t let go. His protective presence was the only thing anchoring her to the moment.

Finally, they stumbled upon a small clearing, sheltered by towering pines and hidden from view. Alex glanced around, his sharp eyes scanning for any threats before nodding.

“We’ll rest here,” he said, his voice rough.

Sasha collapsed onto the mo

  • In the arms of the Mafia Billionaire    The Alpha Returns

    The air outside the cavern was thick with the scent of rain. Dark clouds loomed above the treetops, casting long shadows across the forest. The storm wasn’t here yet, but Sasha could feel it in the wind, the pressure shifting like an unspoken warning.Kai hadn’t said a word since they left the cavern. His jaw was clenched, his hands tense at his sides. Every step he took was purposeful, his body thrumming with barely restrained aggression.Sasha knew he was furious.Not just at Dorian, but at the entire situation spiraling out of their control.She wanted to say something—anything—to break the silence. But before she could, Kai suddenly stopped.His golden eyes flashed as he turned to her. “We need to leave the forest. Now.”Sasha frowned. “What? Why?”Kai’s muscles were tight, his shoulders tense. “That thing—whatever it was—it’s not done with us. And if Dorian is right, it’s only going to get worse.”Sasha swallowed. “So, what do we do?”Kai’s gaze darkened. “We go to the pack.”The

  • In the arms of the Mafia Billionaire    A Deal with Darkness

    Sasha’s fingers trembled around the hilt of her dagger, her mind racing. Kai stood before her, his golden eyes now eclipsed by the abyss that had swallowed him whole. The shadowy figure loomed nearby, a dark presence that pulsed with power, its voice a whispered taunt in her ears.“There is only one way to free him… and it will cost you everything.”Her chest tightened. “What do you mean?” she demanded, keeping her voice steady despite the fear clawing at her insides.The figure stepped forward, its form shifting like black smoke. “His soul is bound to me now. You can break the bond, but to do so…” A pause. A cruel smirk. “You must take his place.”Sasha’s breath caught. “You’re lying.”“Am I?” The creature tilted its head, amused. “Feel free to test it. Strike me down, if you dare. Watch what happens to your precious mate.”Her grip on the dagger faltered. The cavern felt suffocating, the weight of the decision pressing down on her. If she killed this thing, Kai would die. If she too

  • In the arms of the Mafia Billionaire    Lost

    Sasha’s breathing was ragged as she stood in the silent clearing, her fingers tightening around the dagger. The absence of Kai was a gaping wound in her chest, and the sinister laughter that had echoed through the forest still rang in her ears. The figure—whoever or whatever it was—had taken him.Her pulse pounded as she scanned the darkness, searching for any sign of where they had gone. The vortex that had swallowed the figure and Kai had vanished, leaving no trace behind. She clenched her jaw. I won’t lose him.The moment of stunned fear passed, replaced by a simmering determination. She forced herself to move, heading in the direction she had last seen the figure standing. The ground was disturbed, an unnatural chill lingering in the air. She pressed a hand against a nearby tree for balance, her body still aching from the blast of dark energy.A rustling noise made her snap around, dagger raised. Her heart leaped when she saw Ethan stumbling toward her, his face pale, his blue eye

  • In the arms of the Mafia Billionaire    Shadows Strike

    Chapter 47: The Shadows StrikeThe air outside the collapsing chamber was heavy and damp, yet Sasha had never felt such a rush of relief. She and Ethan leaned against a jagged rock wall, their breaths ragged and labored. For a brief moment, the world around them was silent, save for the distant rumble of the collapsing ruins behind them.Sasha turned to Ethan, cupping his face with trembling hands. His skin was pale, his lips cracked, but his eyes were open—and alive. “We made it,” she whispered, her voice thick with emotion. “You’re safe now.”Ethan gave a weak smile, brushing a strand of her hair from her face. “Thanks to you,” he said, his voice hoarse.But before they could savor their reunion, a chilling howl echoed through the forest surrounding them. Sasha froze, her heart sinking. That howl wasn’t human—or animal. It was something else entirely, and it was close.Ethan’s head snapped up, his eyes darkening with recognition. “We have to move,” he said, urgency returning to his

  • In the arms of the Mafia Billionaire    Fragments

    Sasha’s consciousness returned in fragments—flashes of searing heat, whispers in a language she didn’t understand, and the bone-deep sensation of being watched. Her body ached as if she’d been crushed under the weight of a mountain, and her head pounded in rhythm with a distant, echoing heartbeat.When her vision finally cleared, she found herself lying on a cold, blackened ground. Shadows danced around her, alive and shifting, their shapes ever-changing. The air was thick and suffocating, carrying the faint metallic tang of blood and fire.“Where… am I?” she whispered, her voice barely audible over the strange, haunting hum that filled the space.“You’re in its domain now,” a familiar voice answered.Sasha turned sharply, her heart leaping as she saw Solara standing a few feet away. The Guardian’s golden glow was dimmed, her once-brilliant form now muted and frail. She looked like a ghost of herself, her shoulders hunched and her eyes filled with weariness.“Solara!” Sasha scrambled

  • In the arms of the Mafia Billionaire    The Labyrinth

    The passage narrowed with every step, its walls pressing in until they were forced to walk single file. The glow of the Heart lit their way, but its warmth felt faint compared to the oppressive cold that seemed to seep from the stone. The air was thick and damp, laced with an earthy, metallic tang that made Sasha’s skin crawl.“Stay close,” Alaric said, his voice low and cautious. His hand rested on the hilt of his sword, his eyes darting to every shadow that shifted along the walls.“I don’t think we’re alone down here,” Ethan muttered, his voice echoing ominously.Sasha’s grip on the Heart tightened. She could feel its power vibrating through her fingers, as though it were alive and aware of the danger surrounding them.“Is Lilith okay?” Sasha asked, glancing back.Ethan carried Lilith in his arms, her head resting limply against his shoulder. She hadn’t stirred since their fall into the abyss.“She’s breathing,” Ethan said, though his voice was tinged with worry. “But she’s not wak
