I decided to break the tension. I closed the file and leaned back, looking up at her with a bored, casual expression. "Are you going to Claire’s new exhibition opening tomorrow night? It’s her biggest show of the year."

Hey guys! Let me know what you think! Also, before this turns into a full-on “hate Raphael” trend—sometimes just enjoy the story for what it is instead of acting like it’s the end of the world. Please remember the difference between tension and actual harm. There are clear trigger topics like abuse, assault, or exploitation, and none of that is happening here between the leads. Let the story play out and try to enjoy it for what it is. It’s really not that deep. X O X O 💋

Your narrative is unfolding nicely. Scenes so well written. So hot but & not at all trite or repetitive like in other stories I’ve read. I do hope Raphael really cares for G, that G heals herself from the previous childhood abuse & becomes a badass. And R & G keep it hot & loving. Love your writing!

Can Raphael begin to catch some feelings… I hope it is quid pro quo and Gianni brings someone who is really interested in her as a plus one and it is Raphael that regrets it… That Raphael gets a little possessive too & finds he can risk losing Giannia!

I hope she brings her own date that will crush him and his little game. Because he has feelings for her but just doesn't want tk admit it.

    Something inside my chest pulled painfully, "That doesn't mean she'll forgive me." "No,” his thumb moved over my knuckles, "But it means she wants you there. She will want you." My eyes stung. Then he added, completely straight-faced, "If it helps, we can offer her ten thousand dollars." I blink

    My breath caught, and something warm and fluttery stirred in my stomach. Heat crept into my cheeks, turning them pink. “He didn't say you were convenient. He didn't say you made his life easier. He didn't say he needed someone to take care of. He said he needed you.” I swallowed hard. “And that'

    “I said those things because I was trying to protect you,” he continued, “But I was protecting you from something that wasn't actually hurting you.” I didn't say anything. He sighed quietly “I made the same mistake before with Madeleine,” his eyes dropped for a moment, “I looked at Maddie and saw

    He lifted one shoulder, completely unfazed, “We all make mistakes. Constantly.” A faint smile tugged at his mouth, “Claire and Adriano have made enough of them to keep me busy for the rest of my life.” I laughed again. “I’ve threatened to kill both of them more times than I can count,” he continue

    Gianna ━⊰ ❦ ⊱━ The jet hummed beneath my feet as it cut through the night sky. I sat across from Vincenzo in one of the private seats, a folder open between us. He had been reading through it for the last twenty minutes without saying much. Finally, he closed the folder. “This is everything th

    His fingers closed around mine, “You won't.” Perla leaned forward and placed her hand over ours, “None of us are doing that again.” I looked at her, “We call. We visit. We annoy each other. We fight over stupid things. We celebrate birthdays together. Whatever it takes.” Gio nodded, “And if you d

    Raphael ━━ ⛓ ━━ "Five minutes are up," I whispered, flicking the safety off my bow, "The Void is open. Happy fucking hunting, gentlemen." With a surge of adrenaline, the men vanished into the trees, disappearing into the blackness I controlled. I stayed on the terrace for a moment, watching the

    Raphael ━━ ⛓ ━━ I leaned against the cold brick wall of the mansion, my arms crossed, watching the show. Our soldiers were busy dragging in the trash, fifty men, all bound at the wrists, their faces covered in bruises and tears. They were lined up like cattle ready for the slaughter. This was th

    Gianna ━⊰ ❦ ⊱━ I was back at the Rose Garden, which was basically a fancy way of saying a place where girls got dressed up to be arm candy for guys with too much money. "I’m telling you, Mama D, they aren’t humans," I groaned, throwing my head back so hard my ponytail nearly hit the floor. "The

    Raphael ━━ ⛓ ━━ Gold-digging whores. I didn’t even have to look at them to know that’s exactly what they were. The smell of desperation always clung to women like them, no matter how much expensive perfume they sprayed on their wrists to hide it. Hazel Kinsley. She was the widow of some patheti
