LOGINCONTENT WARNING: This story contains themes of non-consensual encounters, emotional manipulation, and intense dark romance. Reader discretion is advised. Blurb: One stolen thing. One dangerous mistake. Now, she belongs to him. She didn’t know the fire she was playing with… until it burned her. He’s a devil in an Armani suit—a cold, calculating billionaire whose empire is built on blood. To cross him is to sign your own death warrant. But she never meant to steal from him. She didn’t even know what she was taking. And yet, in his eyes, she is the ultimate betrayal. She should’ve been broken, discarded like all the others. Instead, she became his obsession. Trapped in his dangerous world, she’s torn between hating him and craving the fire he awakens in her. The deeper she falls, the darker his secrets become—secrets that could cost her more than just her heart... they could cost her very soul. In his world, love isn’t salvation. It’s a death sentence.
View MoreAzaleaWhen I look back at the woman I used to be—that frightened girl drowning in debt and impossible choices—I can barely recognize her anymore.She feels like someone from a story I once read, not the life I actually lived.Living with Adriano had never been simple. He was a storm wrapped in expensive suits, danger disguised as protection. He could be cruel one moment and tender the next, like two different men sharing the same body. He was everything that should have scared me away, yet somehow, against all logic, he became mine.That night, when the house was quiet and Amira was tucked safely in bed, Adriano came to me. There was no smirk on his lips, no arrogance in his gaze, no walls of steel surrounding him.He looked human, vulnerable, and achingly broken. His dark eyes found mine, and for the first time since I had met him, I saw no shadows of power or violence there, only truth.“Azalea,” he said my name like it hurt to speak. He reached toward me, then stopped himself, his
Adriano“Sick?” I asked, trying to keep my voice neutral. “I hadn’t heard anything about that. How do you know?”“It was on the news,” she replied softly. “They said she was acting crazy, like she’d lost her mind completely.”“I see.”Azalea rested her head against my chest, and I could feel her sadness. “I feel sorry for her.”Her words made my blood run cold. “Why? Why would you feel sorry for someone who treated you so badly?”“Because she used to be my friend,” she said simply. “What happened between us must have been some kind of misunderstanding.”I stared down at her in complete shock. A misunderstanding? Chiara had hired men to rape her and stream it live for the world to see. There was no misunderstanding about that level of evil.This innocence of hers - this ability to see good in everyone, even those who wanted to destroy her - was both what I loved most about Azalea and what scared me the most. In my dark world, such purity was dangerous.“I can’t believe you just said th
Adriano“Are you ready, honey?” I asked my wife, Azalea, as I straightened my tie in front of the mirror.“Yes, I’m all dressed,” she replied, walking toward me. Her black business dress fit her perfectly, making her look both professional and stunning.For weeks now, I had been searching for Alex with no luck. My men couldn’t find a trace of him anywhere. I even put some of my people inside his company, hoping they would tell me if he showed up. But that clever bastard never appeared. This told me one thing - he knew I was the one who killed his parents.That’s exactly why I decided to bring Azalea to work at my company. If I kept her close, I could protect her better.“I still don’t understand why you want me to work at your company,” she said, her cheeks turning pink with embarrassment.“Because you look beautiful,” I whispered, pulling her into my arms. “I wish I could lock you up in this house so no other man could ever look at you.”Her face turned even redder. “Thank you for sa
AlexI looked around the room Elena had given me. It was comfortable and cozy, making me feel safe. I lay down on the bed, my mind going back to my mother’s last moments with me.Ever since I was born, she had never been so gentle and caring toward me. Usually, she only showed me love when I could be useful to her. I had even planned to get rid of her after I dealt with Adriano.I sighed, thinking about how I could plan my revenge now. I would use my parents’ death as the perfect reason to destroy him once and for all.At least Mother had done one good thing for me by dying - now I had a real reason that everyone would understand.Suddenly, a thought hit me like lightning. Adriano could track me down if he decided to trace my phone number. I quickly grabbed my phone and turned it off, then removed the SIM card. I threw it in the trash bin in the room.I couldn’t even go to my company now - it would be too dangerous. I would have to stay here for a while until I figured out my next mov
