The Help Novel By Kathryn Stockett

He was a man made of sins. She was the one mistake he couldn’t undo. Luca Romano — the ruthless Don of the Romano crime family — has lived in the shadows for years, drowning in blood, money, and women. But beneath the armor of power lies a ghost he can’t escape: Serena, the girl who once saved his broken soul before vanishing without a trace. Decades later, when Luca sees her again in a supermarket — the same eyes, the same delicate face — he loses control. Within hours, she’s in his mansion, locked away, his lost angel finally returned to him. But she isn’t Serena. She’s Sienna, Serena’s twin sister — the one thrown away, forgotten, and left to survive the streets. Unlike her gentle twin, Sienna bites back. She curses him, fights him, and makes him question the monster he’s become. “You think you own me, Don?” she spits. “No, dolcezza,” he murmurs, pressing his thumb against her jaw. “I think I finally found the one woman who could destroy me.” What begins as a twisted act of obsession turns into a war between them — a battle of wills, lust, and long-buried secrets. Because the more Luca learns about the woman he’s captured, the more he realizes: He might have stolen the wrong twin, but he’s finally met his match. And when the real Serena returns — sweet, innocent, and hiding a darkness he never imagined — Luca will discover the cruelest truth of all: The angel he adored was a lie… and the devil he stole might be the only one who can save him. “I thought you were my redemption,” he says. “No,” she whispers. “I’m your reckoning.”

Vorian Rex is the inaccessible elite CEO of NexusVibe, a tech empire that controls the international stage. Affluent beyond extent and submitting to no one, he’s created a lifestyle of authority and confidentiality, concealing his truth: he’s gay, and he’s never permitted anyone near enough to question his dominance. That is, till Zephyr Cole, his new secretary, walks into his office with keen intelligence, subtle resistance, and an aura which dismantles Vorian’s impenetrable barriers. Zephyr is driven, insightful, and seductively enticing; a man who equals Vorian’s intensity. One late-night encounter triggers a bond that could consume them both. However, with a cruel adversary scheming to take NexusVibe, a family heritage at stake, and Zephyr’s own hidden truths threatening to emerge, their forbidden romance becomes an intense game. When a company scheme reveals their truth, Vorian must choose: safeguard his kingdom or fight for the man who’s proven to him what it means to be liberated.

Warning: Rated SPG(R-18) Naalala niya si Drix pati na ang paraan ng pag-angkin nito sa kanya. Na parang kapareho ng ginagawa ng lalaki na ito na nasa kanyang ibabaw. Kasunod niyon ay ang muling pagbabalik ng matinding sakit na pinaranas sa kanya ng lalaki ng iwanan siya nito, na halos ikabaliw niya yata. Bigla tuloy niyang naitulak ang buong lakas ang lalaki sa dibdib nito. Para siyang binuhusan ng malamig na tubig, kaya dagling nawala ang nagliliyab na pakiramdam na nararamdaman niya kanina lang. Gusto niyang malaman kung sino ba talaga ang lalaki sa dilim na kasama niya ngayon, para kasing kay damot ng liwanag ng mga sandaling iyon. Hindi niya talaga maaninag ang mukha ng lalaki.

Halatang nagulat ang lalaki sa biglang pagbabago niya ng mood. Kanina lang ay lubos na siyang nagpapasakop sa kamunduhan na taglay nito.

Nakaangat ang kalahating katawan nito mula sa kanya, pero ang ibabang bahagi ay nananatiling magkadikit. Noon lang niya napansin na nakabukaka pala ang ayos niya, nakaayos ito sa kanyang gitnang ibabang katawan. Naisip niya na kung sasalakayin ng matigas na parte ng katawan nito ang kanyang hiyas ay tiyak na wala siyang kalaban laban. “Sino ka?” Malakas na ulit niya sa tanong. “Alex.” Parang naguguluhang bigkas nito sa kanyang pangalan. “Hindi mo pa ba ako nakikilala?”
