تسجيل الدخول“I didn’t ask for any of this.” “Neither did I… but you walked into my world anyway.” Melissa Grant believed in love the way fairy tales promised it, gentle, loyal, and safe. Until the night everything shattered. Betrayed by the boy she trusted and the friend she defended, she walks away from the life she knew straight into darkness she was never meant to survive, then she meets him. Adriano Rossi. Feared across the city as The Devil, a mafia king who built his empire on blood, power, and silence. Cold, untouchable, and dangerously precise, he was never supposed to notice someone like her, let alone want her, but one night changes everything, and a truth that refuses to stay buried. Because Melissa isn’t just an innocent girl caught in the wrong place… she is the key to secrets powerful enough to burn empires to the ground. Her past is tied to a hidden crime legacy, her future entangled in a war she never chose, and her heart trapped between the life she lost and the man who could destroy her or save her completely. In a world where love is a weapon and trust is a weakness, one question remains: When the Devil wants you… do you run, or do you fall?
عرض المزيد(Adriano pov)“Where is he?”“In the lower room, boss,” Luca replied without hesitation, falling into step beside me as we moved down the long corridor, our footsteps echoing off the bare concrete walls like distant gunshots. “We picked him up near the docks, just where the informant said he would be. Fucker was sweating bullets, trying to vanish into the fog.”“And the shipment?” My voice stayed even, but the rage simmered beneath it, a low boil waiting to erupt.“Recovered. Not untouched, couple crates splintered, product stepped on, but nothing we can’t salvage and make them pay for twice over.”I didn’t slow, my boots hitting the floor with deliberate force. “Names.”“He hasn’t given us shit yet.” Luca’s tone carried an edge of frustration, his knuckles already bruised from the prelim work.I glanced at him briefly, my eyes narrowing. “Then you haven’t asked properly. Not with conviction.”Luca’s jaw tightened, a muscle twitching under the stubble. “We were waiting for you. Didn’t
(Melissa pov)My breath came in ragged gasps, chest heaving against the silk pillowcase that clung damply to my cheek, the salty tang of dried tears mixing with the fresh musk of our mingled release, Adriano weight pressed me down, his chest hair rough against my back, every inhale expanding those tattooed ridges into my skin like brands, his cock, still half-hard and slick with our combined fluids, shifted inside me, stirring the overfilled mess, cool stickiness seeping between my thighs, pooling on the sheets beneath my ass. I hated the way my body responded, my pussy fluttering weakly around the invasion, as if begging for more despite the raw ache radiating from my core. *Bastard owns this now,* the traitorous thought slithered through my mind, fueling a fresh spike of fury even as heat licked low in my belly.He nuzzled my neck, lips brushing the fresh bite mark, tongue lapping at the metallic bead of blood with a low hum of satisfaction, the wet drag sent shivers cascading down
(Melissa pov)“What the hell”My eyelids fluttered open to dim light filtering through heavy blackout curtains, my head throbbing like I have been hit with a brick, disorientation hit first, silk sheets tangled around my naked body, my wrists bound loosely to the headboard with what felt like leather cuffs, soft but unyielding. The room was opulent, dark wood paneling, a massive four-poster bed dominating the space, the air thick with the scent of expensive leather and faint cigar smoke, panic surged as memory crashed back, the party last night and Adriano in the restroom and blackness after that.The door creaked open, and there he was, shirtless in low-slung sweats, tattoos snaking over his muscled chest and arms, a predator in human skin, his dark eyes locked on mine, possessive, unblinking, like I was prey already cornered. "Awake, pajarito?" His voice was low, accented gravel, sending unwanted heat twisting in my gut despite the fear, he stalked closer, the mattress dipping und
(Adriano pov)“Welcome back, boss.”I stepped out of the prison gates without slowing, the morning air hitting differently after two months behind concrete and steel, the sound of freedom quieter than most people imagined but sharper to someone like me.“You took your time,” I said calmly, adjusting the cuff of my shirt as Luca fell into step beside me.He smirked slightly. “We had to make sure everything was clean.”“It better be.”“It is,” he replied. “No evidence, no witnesses, no loose ends.”Another man opened the car door.“Good to have you back, sir.”I paused just before getting in.“And the ones responsible?” I asked.Luca’s expression hardened. “We’re still tracking movement, but we’re close.”“Close isn’t enough.”“It will be.”“Rossi.”I didn’t turn immediately, I didn’t need to, I already knew the voice.“Detective Kane,” I said slowly, glancing over my shoulder.He stood a few feet away, hands in his pockets, watching me like he had hoped I rot in prison “You walk out l
