Edith Thompson Boardwalk Empire

“Sign the contract and your heart, body and soul will forever be mine,” Adonis said, a wicked glint in his eyes. *** I saw the signs coming, but I was blinded by love, and the desire to believe that my marriage was as perfect as it seemed. That all came crashing down when I found my husband in bed with my cousin. The man I thought I knew was a monster. He shattered my heart, my dreams and my life. But I wasn't going to let him get away with it. I was going to make him pay. He had taken everything away from me, and now was my turn to return the favor. That was when I devised a plan to bring his empire crashing down around him. I would get close to his half-brother, Adonis Sandoval, a man as cold and ruthless as the devil himself. They say keep your friends close and your enemies closer. My ex-husband would pay for what he’d done to me, and Adonis Sandoval would be the instrument of his downfall. But it wasn't going to be that easy. Adonis was no fool; he was as dangerous and cunning as they say. But he stirred a desire in me I thought I’d buried, igniting my passion. As we grew closer, my plan for revenge blurred, but I couldn’t forget why I was here. I had already handed my soul to the devil on a contract, and the path I’d chosen was a dark one, but I was no longer afraid of the shadows. I would get my revenge. But at what cost?

I am trapped in the middle of a war I never asked for. A war written in blood, money, and betrayal. And if I don’t fight back, I will lose, and I don’t lose. It began the day I discovered the truth. I wasn’t who I thought I was. My real family, the Black family were billionaires, powerful and merciless, their legacy dripping with old money and ancient grudges. Bound by ties to the Bristo empire, their world was one I was never meant to enter. I was dragged into it, whether I want to be or not. To my newfound siblings, I am an intruder, a threat, a mistake that should have stayed buried. And above all, a rival. Because in their world, everything is a game of possession, including Lucas Bristo. Lucas, with his arrogance and impossible charm, infuriates me to my core. I despise the way his eyes pin me in place. I despise the heat that coils in my chest whenever he dares to touch me. Loving him was never part of the plan. But my heart doesn’t obey plans, and neither does his. Now my greatest enemies are not outsiders, but blood. My adopted sister, the one who lived the life meant for me has joined forces with my blood brother whom she is having an incestuous affair with. Together, they will stop at nothing to destroy me, to strip away the man I love and the empire that is rightfully mine.

*** “Get back here Bella. Do not even try because you can't get away from me, and do not let me catch you myself.” “I don't want to have anything to do with you," she retorted angrily. “Oh, sweetheart, that is totally on you. Do you know how long I have been invested in you?” “You kidnapped me and brought me here. I don't want to be here and I'm not letting you touch me," her voice was so strong. Someone would actually think she has an upper hand here. He loved her challenge: it only made him harder. "Me touching you is definitely happening. You absolutely don't have a say in it: you can only decide to enjoy it or not,” he said in a low, dangerous voice. With that, he quickly ran around the kitchen counter and caught her. “Got you… You can't run away from me Bella; no matter how hard you try I will always find you. At fifteen, Mirabella Antonio lost everything. Her parents died suddenly in a car crash. They did not only die, they died with a debt tagged to their names.

Otherwise, who did you expect? Heh...It's not like the Lykan Emperor can claim a true mate!' Disdainful scoffs and mocking sneers surfaced on the faces of the Eastern Empire's prominent alpha leaders.
