Lorenzo Harry Potter

Lorenzo Machado. Sean McGrath thinks he's in control. He thinks he's untouchable. He's wrong. The moment I saw him, I knew I wanted him. He just doesn't know it yet. I've never lost a game, and this one won't be any different. Seven dates, that's all I need. Seven dates to break down the walls he's so desperate to keep up. (Sean.) I don't chase women. Women chase me. I take what I want, and I never stay enough for them to think that I'm theirs. But then he came. Lorenzo Machado. Mafia Boss. A man feared by many. And now for some twisted reasons, he wants me. I hate him. I hate how he looks at me, like he knows something I don't. I hate how he follows me, shows up like he owns the damn world. I hate that for the first time, someone is chasing me. I don't know how to run from him. And worst of all? A part of me doesn't want to run.

Mi matrimonio con Lorenzo Cossiga siempre se quedaba a un paso de consumarse. Cinco años de compromiso, treinta y dos bodas celebradas… y en cada ocasión, un accidente inesperado interrumpía el final. Hasta la trigésima tercera. La ceremonia iba a la mitad cuando la fachada de la iglesia se desplomó de golpe. Terminé en terapia intensiva, con el cráneo fracturado, una conmoción cerebral severa y más de diez notificaciones de estado crítico. Dos meses luché entre la vida y la muerte antes de regresar de ese abismo. El día de mi alta, escuché a Lorenzo conversar con su hombre de confianza: —Señor, si de verdad está enamorado de esa estudiante pobre, basta con romper el compromiso con la señorita Valentina. La fuerza de la familia Cossiga es suficiente para silenciar cualquier murmullo. ¿Por qué seguir provocando accidentes una y otra vez? —Ella casi muere —replicó el hombre, con evidente desaprobación. Lorenzo guardó silencio mucho tiempo antes de responder: —No tengo otra salida… Hace diez años, Señor Morea y su esposa dieron la vida por salvarme. Esa deuda solo puedo pagarla con este matrimonio. —Pero yo amo a Sofía. Fuera de ella, no quiero casarme con nadie. Miré las cicatrices que cruzaban mi cuerpo, y lloré en silencio. Toda la agonía que había soportado no era obra del destino, sino la fría estrategia del hombre al que amaba. Si él no era capaz de elegir, entonces yo misma pondría fin a todo.

18+ CONTENTS "You thought you could just disappear, Selene? Run away and leave me behind? You really thought I'd never find you?" Lorenzo asked, his voice deep. "I had to," I choked out. "I couldn't breathe," "And now? Can you breathe now? Knowing I'm here and you're in my grasp?" He asked, tracing my jawline with his fingers. "You can't escape me. I'll always find you." And he was right. Lorenzo will always find me. And the most sickening part of it all? I desired him as much as he desired me. But at the sametime. I loathed him with every fibre of my being. - Selene ran away from Lorenzo. Her mafia boyfriend, six years ago, pregnant and terrified. Now, her son is dying, and she's forced back to the stripping club where she hopes to earn enough for his life saving surgery. Now, Lorenzo is back, more dangerous, more possessive, and offering her a deal she can't refuse: be his mistress for six months, and he'll give her three million dollars. The price? Her freedom, soul and body all to him. But the secret she guards more fiercely than her life or freedom was their children- twins- a boy and a girl. Children he would likely kill without a second thought, confirmed by his own chilling words: "Children are weaknesses, Selene. I don't tolerate weaknesses, no matter how precious, I'll get rid of it...unless it's you." But as the stakes rises, another ghost from her past emerges. Robert, her abuser, the man whose death was the beginning of her hatred for Lorenzo. He's back, fueled by vengeance, ready to claim what he believes is rightfully his. Will Selene survive the crossfire of two dangerous men vying for control, or will the past consume her? Bookcover madeby@BilliePatsy. Copyright©Avalone Wilde2025.

The day I inherited Grandpa's "Peacemaker," I received a call from myself, ten years in the future. "Sienna, don't give that gun to Lorenzo." I obeyed without question. That night, forced to use his faulty Glock, Lorenzo was beaten into a vegetative state during a duel. Guilt nearly broke me, but my parents nursed me back to health. Or so I thought. "You idiot," my future self sneered. "It was a lie to get you on the operating table. They want your heart for your brother!" Finding a transplant agreement in my father's study, I publicly severed ties with the Morettis. Only later, after Lorenzo died from rejection, did I learn they just needed my rare blood, not my heart. I wanted to return and atone, but the phone rang again. "Your parents will kill you for honor. Don't go back." I waited. But instead of assassins, news arrived: the Morettis had been slaughtered by rivals. I bolted for home, only to be mowed down by a black sedan. As I died, I couldn't understand why my future self had orchestrated my end. Then I opened my eyes. I was back at the ceremony.

Pernikahanku dengan ketua mafia, Lorenzo Corsica, selalu terhenti tepat sebelum langkah terakhir. Kami telah bertunangan selama lima tahun dan mengadakan upacara pernikahan sebanyak 32 kali, tetapi setiap kali selalu berakhir dengan kecelakaan di tengah jalan. Hingga upacara yang ke-33, saat prosesi baru berjalan setengah, dinding luar gereja tiba-tiba runtuh dan aku tertimpa hingga masuk ruang perawatan intensif. Tulang tengkorakku retak, aku mengalami gegar otak parah, dan telah menerima lebih dari sepuluh surat pemberitahuan kondisi kritis... Aku berjuang di ambang kematian selama dua bulan sebelum akhirnya berhasil bertahan hidup. Namun, pada hari aku keluar dari rumah sakit, tanpa sengaja aku mendengar percakapan antara Lorenzo dan orang kepercayaannya. "Tuan Muda, jika Anda benar-benar jatuh cinta pada gadis miskin itu, Anda bisa langsung membatalkan pertunangan dengan Nona Chiara. Kekuatan Keluarga Corsica cukup besar untuk membungkam segala gosip. Mengapa Anda harus berulang kali menciptakan kecelakaan seperti ini?" "Dia hampir saja mati." Suara orang kepercayaannya penuh ketidaksetujuan. Lorenzo terdiam lama sebelum akhirnya berkata, "Aku juga nggak punya pilihan... Sepuluh tahun lalu, Tuan dan Nyonya Moreto menyelamatkanku dengan nyawa mereka. Aku hanya bisa membalas budi melalui pertunangan." "Tapi aku mencintai Sophia. Selain dia, aku nggak ingin menikahi siapa pun." Aku menatap bekas luka yang memenuhi tubuhku dan menangis tanpa suara. Ternyata semua penderitaan yang kualami bukan karena nasib yang kejam, melainkan hasil perhitungan matang dari pria yang kucintai. Jika dia tidak sanggup membuat pilihan, aku yang akan mengakhiri semua ini untuknya.

Everyone in southern Italy knew that Lorenzo Moretti loved me like a madman. And yet he had been keeping a much younger woman in Naples. They said she looked just like I had years ago. He told people she was only a reminder of the woman he had once loved most. He also gave strict orders that no one was to let me hear about her. Until the day I found out I was pregnant. I went to his office to tell him the news myself, only to stop outside the door when I heard a young woman’s voice from inside. “Lorenzo… am I only here because I remind you of her?” The door was slightly ajar. Through the gap, I saw a young woman who looked too much like me, wrapped in his jacket and holding his glass. I stood there, barely breathing. Then I heard him answer. “Don’t compare yourself to her.” “She could never be what you are.” I turned and walked away without making a sound. That night, I called my mother. “Mother, I’ve made up my mind.” She was silent for a moment. “I want a fire,” I said. “Something no one survives. By the time it’s over, Sophia Moretti needs to be dead to the world.”

Christmas Eve was meant to be the culmination of seven years of long-distance longing—the day Lorenzo finally slid an engagement ring onto my finger. Instead, a sudden emergency surgery chained me to the operating table. The patient wasn't just suffering from a premature delivery and catastrophic hemorrhaging; she was riddled with infections, the biological fallout of a reckless, hedonistic lifestyle. The girl on the table spat out orders with a venomous entitlement that made my blood run cold. "My husband is the head of the Corleone family. He’s second to none, and this entire city bows to him. If you can’t save my baby, you’re all dead." My mind went blank. There was only one head of the Corleone family: Lorenzo. "You’ve got the wrong man," I said, my voice wavering despite my frown. "The news said he’s already engaged to a woman from a rival family for a strategic alliance." The girl looked at me as if I’d just told a pathetic joke. She surveyed me with a mocking sneer. "Oh, he’s mentioned that woman. He said she’s like a cold corpse—that even touching her makes him sick to his stomach. She doesn't provide him a fraction of the pleasure I do." She smirked. "He heard something happened to the baby. He’s en route from Sicily right now with his personal detail." She flicked her phone screen open. There it was: a photo of her and Lorenzo, locked in a suffocatingly intimate embrace. I froze. A second later, a notification from Lorenzo vibrated against my palm. “Darlin’, something urgent came up tonight. I’m skipping the engagement dinner. I’ll make it up to you later.” Since they were so utterly in love, I decided to give them exactly what they wanted. I dialed a number that had been silent for three years—the number of the true mastermind of the underworld, Don Sebastian. "Does your proposal from three years ago still stand?"
