Chef Luca Corleone

When seventeen year old Brianna Whitlock dislocates her joint in a skiing accident, she is forced to take a break from what she loves most- dancing. By the time she returns for her senior year, she's hopelessly behind and fears all her years of hard work had been for nothing. Her only chance at catching up comes in the form of new school instructor- thirty three year old Luca Bianchi. Whom she holds only feelings of dubiety towards his training methods, at first. But when he starts unlocking her secrets and embracing her way of thinking, her doubt turns into trust and interest. Which eventually shifts into desire. With so much on the line, will her newfound emotions make her bloom or become her downfall?

Di dunia di mana darah lebih berharga dari cinta, Rafael De Luca tumbuh tanpa hati, pewaris kekuasaan yang dibangun dari kematian dan kebohongan. Hingga suatu malam, seorang saksi bernama Elena muncul dan mengguncang segalanya. Elena seharusnya mati, tetapi Rafael justru menunda peluru yang sudah siap di pelipisnya. Sejak itu, setiap senja menjadi saksi dari pertarungan yang tak pernah selesai, antara cinta dan kehancuran, antara nafsu dan luka yang tak bisa disembuhkan. Dalam istana yang megah namun dingin, cinta mereka tumbuh dari darah, dan berakhir dalam api yang sama yang menciptakannya. “Aku tak tahu apakah aku mencintaimu, atau hanya ingin melihatmu hancur bersamaku.”

Malakai De Luca runs a criminal empire of assassins, killers, drug dealers, you name it. He makes the orders and his best friend Alec does the killing. Until one day a beautiful blond girl named Eden Salvatore, broke up with Alec because of his profession. Years later when Malakai and Eden meet, what happens when Malakai offers the same job to Eden, and she accepts, without knowing this was also her ex's boss? When Malakai takes her halo and breaks it in two, creating 2 horns instead? And what happens when Alec finds out, the growing tension between his best friend/boss and his ex being something he hates? But, Eden wasn't the reason why. Malakai was. A love triangle with only 1 winner.

Aux yeux des autres, j'étais Mme Ward, la reine intouchable aux côtés d'Elias Ward, le chef de la mafia de Paris. Mais je savais que mon mari ne m'avait jamais aimée. Son cœur appartenait toujours à Harper Dinah, la femme de son neveu. Et après la mort de ce dernier, il n'a pas hésité à faire venir Harper chez nous. « Je veux juste mieux m'occuper d'elle », m'a-t-il dit. Mais sa version de « s'occuper d'elle » consistait à expulser un homme d'une fête parce qu'il avait osé flirter avec Harper et à la rendre enceinte. Elias adorait me complimenter en public, comme si j'étais la femme parfaite. Oui, je l'avais été autrefois. J'avais l'aidé à bâtir son empire et fait briller son casino. J'étais celle qui souriait, aimable, toujours accueillante. Et pendant ce temps, il cachait Harper, comme si elle était une relique sacrée. Puis, c'était grâce à « ces louanges » incessantes qu'un de ses ennemis m'a prise pour cible. Un groupe de voyous m'a enlevée, envoyant à Elias un message menaçant : « Dégage de Paris, ou ta femme va y passer ! » Bien sûr, Elias n'a pas choisi de céder. « Tiens bon », m'a-t-il dit au téléphone, « Ils ne te feront pas de mal, Noah. Tiens jusqu'à ce que Harper accouche. Je viendrai te chercher. » J'ai été alors enfermée dans une cave sale pendant huit mois, affamée, battue, humiliée. Le chef des malfrats m'a violée encore et encore. Et pourtant, Elias n'est jamais venu. Finalement, alors qu'ils étaient tous ivres, j'ai réussi à m'échapper. De retour chez moi, j'ai trouvé mes jumeaux endormis dans la chambre des domestiques, mangeant des restes, tandis que leur père organisait une fête pour son nouveau-né... Je ne l'ai pas affronté et suis partie avec mes enfants.

Nagluluksa si Amara Alcantanra sa burol ng kaniyang ina habang abala ang kanyang asawa sa pagdiriwang ng kaarawan ng unang babaeng minahal nito—punong-puno ng kasiyahan at engrande ang selebrasyon. Klarong-klaro ang lahat kay Amara. Kung hindi siya mahal ng lalaki, ayaw na rin niya dito. Iniwan niya ang kasunduan ng diborsyo sa ibabaw ng mesa at piniling ipalaglag ang dinadala, at lumakad palayo nang mag-isa. Limang taon ang lumipas. Sa isang marangyang subastahan, lumitaw ang chief auctioneer nakasuot ito ng isang hapit na makabagong Filipiniana na backless, may mataas na slit sa hita, at natatakpan ng puting belo ang kanyang mukha. Lahat ng mata ay kusang tumigil sa kanya. Napasimangot si Argus De Luca, bahagyang nanliliit ang mga mata. "Ang pangalan niya'y Reina?" Tumango ang kanyang assistant. "Yes, Sir. May nabalitaan rin akong minsan may nag-alok ng sampu-sampung milyon kapalit ng pagkakataong makita ang tunay niyang mukha pero tinanggihan niya." Sa wakas, natagpuan na ni Argus De Luca ang babaeng matagal na niyang hinahanap sa loob ng limang taon. Kinagabihan ay hinarang niya ito sa isang kanto. "Auctioneer Reina, hanggang ngayon ay tinatakbuhan mo pa rin ako o mas tamang sabihin kong Amara?" "Argus, hiwalay na tayo." "Hindi ko kailanman sinang-ayunan 'yon. Nasaan ang anak ko?" "Mukhang nakalimot ka, Argus… ikaw mismo ang dahilan kung bakit nalaglag ang bata, limang taon na ang nakalipas!" Ngunit ngumisi si Argus, at may inilantad sa harap niya. "Kung gayon, ipaliwanag mo ito." Triplets na limang taong gulang ang nakatayo sa harap nila.

Soulmates. Everyone, between the ages of sixteen and eighteen, would have the names of their soulmates appear on their left or right wrist in a light grey ink that turned red when you meet them. Should your soulmates die then their name would turn white. *** *** Luca stood staring down at the water below him as he stood on the thick cement railing of the bridge. Looking down at his wrists he traced the names Williams Roswell and Jedidiah Roswell, the names of his soulmates who he had yet to meet. “I’m sorry,” He sobbed. “I can’t do it anymore. You both will be better off without me, you don’t need me… I’m nothing…”. “Goodbye.” He dropped his hands to his sides and took a deep breath then jumped in.
