The Skull King

She's a nurse that is trained to save lives. He's a mafia king, feared for taking them. Tessa Hartley is a twenty four year old nurse who just moved to Italy recently after the completion of her nursing degree to advance in her career. She's undeniably beautiful with her slim but curvy physique and soft features. She was the kind of beautiful that didn't belong in a world like his. She was far too innocent for the world she was about to fall into. She never believed someone could take a life so easily until she saw it with her own eyes. Everything takes a turn when she witnesses something she should never have and is now thrown into the dangerous world of the Italian mafia king, Leonardo Vitale. Leonardo Vitale, the most ruthless and feared mafia king in the whole of Italy. He is a man who shows no mercy to those who cross him. But instead of silencing Tessa like he should, he does the unexpected. He spares her life. Not out of kindness, but because he wants her. Now forced into his world, Tessa must live under the protection of a man who rules with blood and fear. Every mafia family wants her dead, but Leonardo is ready to go to war for her. Even if it means burning down the entire underworld to keep her safe. She may have seen something that could cost her life. But he sees something in her that he never expected, a light in his darkness, and the one thing he cannot let go. He should have killed her, instead he claimed her.

Knowing that my so-called fiancé was fixated on girls' purity, I came up with a sneaky plan to lose my virginity at any cost… The problem was that the male part of my pack consisted of chauvinistic, primitive screwheads; the mere thought of allowing any of them to touch me was making me sick. I almost lost all hope, but then at my bachelorette party… "Oh. My. Goddess..." I felt as if I had met the sexiest man alive. Moreover, he found me attractive! I spent the most beautiful night of my life with him... but that was when my true nightmare began. My Prince Charming disappeared, and I was severely punished for my deed. Five years later, I found out that the sexy stripper is the damn King of werewolves! Now not only that—he is also my mate, and he knew about it all along! I'm no longer the innocent girl he met. I've been hiding my real identity, but I'm planning to reveal it when the right time comes. When it does, I, Aria Seymour, am going to take vengeance on the Alpha King.
