Livia dan Raka saling membenci sejak awal. Bagi Livia, Raka adalah pria yang membunuh ayahnya. Sedangkan bagi Raka, Livia hanyalah kelemahan berbahaya yang bisa menghancurkan kekuasaannya. Namun takdir memaksa mereka berada di bawah atap yang sama, bukan sebagai pasangan, melainkan sebagai tawanan dan pemilik. Tujuan hidup mereka berlawanan. Livia ingin bertahan hidup sambil menunggu kesempatan membalas dendam. Sementara Raka ingin menjaga Livia tetap hidup demi rahasia besar yang ia bawa, sekaligus menjadikannya umpan untuk musuh-musuhnya. Karena ancaman dari dunia luar, Raka menetapkan satu keputusan mutlak bahwa Livia harus tinggal di bawah perlindungannya selama waktu tertentu, mengikuti semua aturannya, dan tidak pernah keluar dari jangkauan pengawasannya. Selama hidup bersama, konflik tak terhindarkan. Pertengkaran, kebencian, dan ketegangan terus terjadi. Namun di balik itu, Livia mulai melihat sisi Raka yang tidak ia duga, berupa perlindungan tanpa pamrih, kemarahan yang muncul karena takut kehilangan, dan kesetiaan mematikan pada orang yang ia anggap miliknya. Tanpa disadari, kebencian mereka mulai goyah. Kehadiran satu sama lain menjadi candu yang berbahaya. Livia membenci dirinya sendiri karena merasa aman di sisi musuhnya, sementara Raka kehilangan kendali karena mulai mencintai wanita yang seharusnya hanya ia manfaatkan. Ketika kebenaran tentang kematian ayah Livia terungkap, perjanjian perlindungan itu harus berakhir. Livia diberi pilihan untuk pergi dan bebas. Raka dipaksa melepaskan satu-satunya hal yang mampu meluluhkan hatinya. Namun saat mereka berpisah dan menjalani hidup masing-masing, satu hal menjadi jelas, bahwa Dunia tanpa satu sama lain terasa jauh lebih kejam. Di tengah perang terakhir dan ancaman kematian, mereka memilih untuk saling mengejar... bukan sebagai musuh, bukan sebagai pemilik dan tawanan, melainkan sebagai dua orang yang memilih untuk tetap bersama, meski dunia menentang. Karena bagi mereka, cinta yang lahir dari kebencian mungkin berbahaya, akan tetapi kehilangannya jauh lebih mematikan.

"Repeat that, Bella. Say 'no' again, and I promise you that'll be the last thing you ever say on this earth," Damien Alejandro says, pointing a gun to my head. His icy, cold voice sent shivers down my spine, and somehow, his voice scared me more than the gun pressed to my temple. “I…I…I do," I stammered, the words tasting like bile on my lips. “You may now kiss the bride," the priest announced. --- Isabella is kidnapped on her wedding day and taken to an undisclosed location, where she is forced to marry a stranger, Damien Alejandro, who turns out to be a dangerous Mafia king.

You were nothing but a placeholder until the real heiress returned." Those were the last words Vivian heard from her fiancé before he humiliated her on their wedding day. She thought losing her groom was the worst thing that could happen. She was wrong. To cover his massive gambling debts, her ex-fiancé did the unthinkable. He sold her debt to the city's most feared man. Julian Thorne. The Billionaire. The Monster. The King of the Underworld. Vivian expects death. Instead, Julian offers her a diamond ring and a contract. "Marry me," he commands. "Be the perfect wife in public. And in private, I will give you the power to crush everyone who hurt you." It was supposed to be a cold transaction. A fake marriage for revenge. But Julian Thorne is possessive, dark, and dangerously seductive. Vivian didn't plan on falling for the villain of her story. And she certainly didn't expect the secret he was hiding one that changes everything.

Scarlett Voss has one rule: get in, get paid, get out. No attachments. No exceptions. No mercy. When a mysterious client offers her the biggest payday of her life to seduce billionaire Xavier Blackwell and steal a file from his private server, she doesn’t hesitate. Men like Xavier are easy targets — too powerful to expect betrayal, too arrogant to see it coming. Except Xavier Blackwell isn’t either of those things. He knew about Scarlett before she walked through his door. He knew her name, her game, and exactly who sent her. What he didn’t know — what no amount of preparation could have warned him about — was how completely she would dismantle every wall he’d spent years building. What neither of them knew was how deep the danger truly ran. Because the man who hired Scarlett isn’t just a client with a secret. He’s a senator with blood on his hands, a confirmation hearing in twenty-seven days, and a willingness to destroy anyone who stands between him and untouchability. He’s already killed once to protect himself. He’ll do it again without hesitation. He’s also Xavier’s uncle. And he chose Scarlett specifically — not just for her skills, but because he saw what would happen between them before either of them did. Now Scarlett and Xavier are running out of time, running out of trust, and running toward each other in a situation designed to make both impossible. The con was supposed to be simple. The truth is anything but. Some lies protect you. Some truths destroy you. And some people are worth burning everything down for.

He pressed him against the door, breath hot, voice ragged. “If you don’t want this… tell me to stop.” A pause. A heartbeat. “I can’t.” ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Some obsessions aren’t meant to be touched. Some men aren’t meant to be loved. And some desires don’t care. This collection isn’t about perfect love. It’s about the one you weren’t supposed to want— Another man. Your brother’s best friend. Your enemy’s son. Your professor. Your fake fiancé. The man who shouldn’t look at you like that. The man you can’t stop wanting. Every story is a man falling for another man when he shouldn’t—and doing it anyway. Fast-paced, emotionally sharp, and dangerously seductive, every story in Burnt Offerings dives headfirst into the hunger we deny, the rules we break, and the lovers we were warned to stay away from. Some affairs stay in the dark. Others start wildfires. This isn't a love story. It's all the ones you swore you’d never tell. All of them about men who should have walked away from each other… but didn’t.

She signed the contract to save her family. She woke up married to not one ruthless Don — but two. Nico Black is the charming face who teases her until she shakes. Matteo Black is the silent shadow who takes without asking. And the dark echo bond that ties them together means every gasp, every tear, every burning thing her body does against her will... they feel all of it. Aurora Kane is trapped in a penthouse that smells like cedar and danger, paraded at galas in dresses that feel like costumes, broken down night after night until she barely recognizes the girl in the mirror. But the quiet, soft-eyed woman they bought with a contract has been hacking their accounts since week one. She knows their secrets. She knows their weaknesses. She knows who inside their empire ordered her father's death. And she is done surviving. In a world built on blood, obsession, and twisted desire... the men who thought they owned her are about to find out exactly who holds the power. They wanted a pawn. They built their own ruin instead.

“Do you know why people call me the devil? It’s because I live up to that name,” he chuckled and tightened his hand around my neck, making my pulse race. “I've shed a lot of blood, and killing someone as insignificant as you… It means nothing." “Then why haven’t you?” I dared to ask. I shouldn't test his patience, but the thrill of danger was so… Tempting. “You fascinate me. It would be a shame to end someone as amusing as you too soon.” His lips almost brushed against mine, stealing my breathe. "One month. Escape with Clara within one month, and it would seem like you never met me." “And if I fail?” “I’ll kill you. ~~~ When Gwendolyn Harper and her best friend are kidnapped by Lorenzo Raimondo, the ruthless, cunning mafia lord of Sinclair City, she's faces an impossible choice: save herself and abandon her best friend or risk everything to save them both. She chooses defiance, striking a dangerous deal for their freedom. But Gwen may have underestimated how much power Lorenzo had and the seductive, dangerous charm that she couldn't resist. Will she fight for a freedom that seems nearly impossible, or will she succumb to the temptation of the man who holds her life?

In Catania, beneath the shadow of Mount Etna, the mafia rules with fire and blood. No name carries more fear than the Valerios and no one is more protected than Lucy Valerio, the youngest and only daughter of the ruthless boss, Salvatore. Sheltered by her brothers, especially Vince, the heir to the Valerio name, Lucy lives in a gilded cage where freedom is only a dream. Until one reckless night changes everything. At The Velvet Room, the city’s most dangerous nightclub, Lucy meets Angelo, dark, magnetic, and scarred by secrets. Their chemistry is undeniable, but their love is forbidden. For Angelo is no ordinary man: he is the prodigal son of Giovanni Mancini, Salvatore’s sworn rival. A man who once abandoned the mafia life, only to be pulled back into its shadows. As passion ignites between them, the past resurfaces. Old betrayals, family feuds, and the reappearance of Angelo’s first love turn their bond into a deadly gamble. In a city where love is weakness and betrayal is currency, Lucy must choose: loyalty to her family… or the man who could destroy it.
