“Here's the deal. Do that lawyer stuff that you do. Try to send me to jail.” “What?” I blinked. “I'm giving you a year, but in my territory. I'm not sending you back to the U.S, so better get used to Italy like you once lived.” “Excuse-” “But you'll have everything. Every resource. Impress me, show me why you're a top lawyer and get me locked up. Prove to everyone that I killed your parents.” “I'll send you to jail, even if it's the last thing I do, Roman. You're trying to ruin my life again, but this time I won't let you. You're finished.” “Now, the condition.” My eyes widened. Now a condition? “If you don't succeed, you won't ever have an opinion. You'll be my plaything, my pet, my personal slave, my cum bucket. You'll be whatever I want you to be, do you understand?” I felt instant chills ripple through me. “So that's what you want? To control me after killing my parents?” “Yes, exactly that. I want to humiliate you so badly, so better impress me and send me to jail, Gianna. Better do it.” His voice was thick with warning. No matter how much I desire him, I'll make sure he rots in jail. …… We don't always get what we want, Gianna. He killed her parents and she managed to escape the house fire. Years later and this invincible Mafia don gets arrested in the United States, and she's the top lawyer in charge of his case? Hmm, I wonder what happened next.

That's why she had only dedicated herself to work and the company, her father had left her as the president, since she was an only child and these years she had been one of the best in the entire country, because that was the only thing she could do. be good, because for love, I had simply closed the doors.

When my four sons were finally old enough for preschool, I arrived at the school office with my marriage certificate and their birth certificates, ready to sign them up. But the lady at the counter frowned and said, "These documents don't check out. According to the system, your kids don't even exist." I felt as if the floor had dropped out from under me. I remembered when Sheldon Clem and I got married—he was the one who handled all the paperwork, the birth registrations, everything. I never imagined that when I tracked him down with our four boys, he'd be holding his childhood sweetheart in his arms, with her little girl snuggled against him. And then we heard him sweet-talking her right in front of us. "Don't be mad, babe. I've got everything set up for us overseas. Gigi is going to the most expensive private school, and you'll be living in the nicest penthouse downtown. "Sure, she gave me four sons, but all my love and money are with you. I only kept her around because I felt sorry for her. "What else do you need? My will's already signed. Everything goes to you and Gigi." Riley Anderson pouted, smug and satisfied. "If you don't love her, then she's the other woman, not me. She's got no right to fight me for anything!" So he never went bankrupt. When we got back home, Sheldon acted as if nothing had happened. "Honey, I've found this amazing project overseas, so I won't have time to come home much. I'll need you to hold down the fort at home." I smiled and nodded. "Sure, go ahead." If that was how he wanted to play this, then fine. I'd make sure he really went broke, and then I'd find my boys a new father.

How will you feel when you end up with the same person you were trying to find an escape from? How will you feel when you end up in a one-night stand with your Ex-husband? Her eyes fluttered as she felt the morning cool breeze brushing against her bare body, which was semi-covered with a quilt. Although her eyes felt heavy to even blink, her other senses were high alert. She could hear the bird chirping outside the windows, she could smell a familiar masculine cologne, her body covered with goosebumps with the presence of someone familiar, and her heart beats rapidly on its own accord. That's when her brain registered her surroundings and could recollect her last passionate night with someone who would be her soon-to-be ex-husband. How? When? Why? She mentally slapped herself, but then she couldn't hide the contentment. She felt as if she was complete now. She couldn't stop but feel happy again. Why? Why does she feel like falling in love again? "I see you are still the w***e you were back then," his words broke her little dream she just thought of. "A desperate woman like you, who can with her ex-husband, can no wonder w***e around any men." He said with no remorse. "I did the right thing by divorcing you. How much do you charge for a night?" he smirked, looking at her teary face. "Here! Take extra 200 bucks for the sake of our old times." She vowed never to cry in front of her husband, but what he said just now shattered her soul beyond repair. Her quivering body and hollow eyes didn't hide the agony she felt at that very moment. "Sorry for loving you."

ALICE RILEY “I like you; you’re a wonderful girl. But your stubbornness? I can’t deal with that. Unless you change—” Before he could finish, I said goodbye and walked out. Just a week into dating, and all he could see was my so-called obstinance. Honestly, dating wasn’t my thing. Men admired my looks, sure, but my mind? That was a different story. A few dates were all it took for them to brand me as headstrong or argumentative. I was okay with that. I had no intention of changing myself to fit someone else’s expectations. Then came Vivian Scott, the enigmatic CEO of Scott Group. He was unlike anyone I’d met before. Why wasn’t he running for the hills like the rest? Did he actually think he could tame me, bend me to his will? VIVIAN SCOTT I had everything a man needed to make women swoon—looks, power, status, and wealth. Becoming the CEO of Scott Group at a young age had made me responsible, but it hadn’t dulled my appetite for fun. Whenever I encountered a beautiful woman, I knew exactly how she’d react. I never missed an opportunity to tease and charm my way into her good graces. It was all harmless fun—short-lived and never serious. That was until I met Alice Riley. Alice was gorgeous, no doubt, but it wasn’t just her beauty that intrigued me. Her sharp wit and unyielding attitude set her apart. She wasn’t like the women I’d known before. Unfortunately for her, she thought that throwing up walls and flaunting her defiance would keep me at bay. What’s more thrilling than conquering the impossible? I was determined to bring her to my track! __________ Cover Image Credit: Image by Freepik

But when he first lays his eyes on Chloe Jane, and inhales her scent, he feels the pull of the mate bond, but since she is blind, the bond seems to be one-sided. Oh, fate can be cruel...

Les murs suintent l’humidité et l’odeur de lessive bon marché. Ici, les journées se ressemblent, rythmées par les hurlements des gardiens et les murmures des détenues. Mais depuis son arrivée, Léo est une anomalie dans ce monde de femmes. Lui, le seul homme dans cet univers carcéral féminin, détonne. Trop sûr de lui. Trop calme. Trop… fascinant. Les premières semaines, il a essuyé les regards en coin, les provocations, les tests. Mais il a tenu bon. Parce qu’il sait survivre. Parce qu’il sait se battre. Ce soir, dans la cour, l’atmosphère est électrique. Mira, assise sur un banc, le fixe, mâchoire serrée. Depuis qu’il a posé les yeux sur Sasha, une brune au regard brûlant, la tension monte. Ici, l’amour et la passion sont des feux de paille qui enflamment tout sur leur passage. Et Mira n’aime pas partager. Léo le sait. Mais il ne recule pas. — Tu te prends pour qui ? crache Mira en s’approchant, son gang derrière elle. Il se lève lentement, un sourire au coin des lèvres. Il n’a pas peur. Il a connu pire. — Je prends ce que je veux, répond-il, voix posée. Sasha, à quelques pas, le regarde, fascinée. Il la veut, et elle le sait. Mira ne supporte pas ce défi silencieux. Son poing part, rapide, furieux. Léo l’évite de justesse et riposte. L’impact claque, Mira titube, mais ne lâche pas l’affaire. Elle revient à la charge, et bientôt, la bagarre éclate sous les cris des détenues qui encerclent la scène.

Quand le cœur se brise, la légende naît. Allongée dans le service des urgences, couverte de sang, Alice Durand prenait conscience de l'impensable : son mari, Marc, et leur fille, Charlotte, se trouvaient au chevet de l'amour idéal de Marc, Julia Leroux ; et cet instant précis, son mariage était en train de s'effondrer. On se moquait d'elle, très amoureuse de Marc, épouse discrète et presque effacée, sans imaginer que la styliste de joaillerie prodige dont tout le milieu parlait, que le légendaire trader « L » de Wall Street, et même la personne qui détenait le traitement susceptible de sauver Julia… ne faisaient qu'une. Et cette personne, c'était elle. Alice. Après le divorce, Marc l'accusait d'en profiter pour manipuler la situation ; Charlotte pensait qu'elle payait le prix de ses propres décisions. Tous deux attendaient sa chute. Jusqu'au jour où… Son croquis d'une bague de fiançailles s'était vendu à prix d'or lors d'une vente aux enchères. Un avion médical des Nations Unies avait atterri chez elle pour qu'elle prenne en charge une opération classée confidentielle. Et leur fille, terrifiée, serrait contre elle son Avis de pronostic vital engagé : la seule donneuse de moelle compatible portait le nom d'Alice. Par une nuit d'orage, Marc, agenouillé sur les graviers détrempés, implorait encore. Alice, vêtue d'une robe de soirée, un voile de diamants bleus cachant son regard, laissait paraître un sourire glacial. « Cher Marc, pour opérer votre bien-aimée, mes honoraires sont simples : 51 % des actions du Groupe Beausoleil. »
