Twisted Sugar Sparks

“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.

“You are not my mate. But you are my soul’s obsession. I will never share you, not even with your true mate.” He confessed as his thrusts grew. **** Sera thought she had her life figured out—college plans, a sweet human boyfriend, and parents who had successfully hidden their werewolf past. Then rogues hunt her for power and kill her boyfriend. Alpha Kael and his son, Damian arrive to take her safe since she was betrothed to Damian years ago. When they meet, their mate bond sparks instantly. Neither wants it. Damian is in love with his male partner, and Sera is too broken to fall in love. They agree to fake their bond publicly while living separate lives privately. At the pack, Sera can read everyone’s minds except Alpha Kael’s. Drawn to the silence she’s found since her powers manifested, she becomes obsessed with him. He’s her father’s best friend and her godfather forbidden in every way that matters, and twice her age. He’s supposed to help her survive the rogues. Instead, they become lovers. Kael takes her as an incarnation of his ex-wife. The pack watches but stays silent. After all, who questions him? But when Damian’s partner betrays him, he starts investigating what makes Sera so valuable, everything changes. The mate bond he’s been ignoring flares to life, and he finds himself genuinely falling for the woman he was supposed to fake-marry. Now they’re fighting over a woman. Then Sera discovers she’s pregnant with the Alpha’s child. The pack council calls it an abomination and demands she terminate the pregnancy. Sera must choose between the forbidden love that could destroy everything, or the fated bond that promises safety but might never feel like home.

“Oh come on, I know you're jealous that I kissed her.” “Respect your mom.” My breathing doubled. I should've resisted and ran away, but I did no such thing, I stayed. His hands began to explore my back as I tried to fight. “But do you respect her? Because if you did, you wouldn't have such naughty thoughts about your best friend's son, not like he minds it though.” He could see right through me, and it made me panic. “Shut your mouth! Like you said, you're a little twenty two years old, so why should I be attracted to you?” “But you are.” “I'm not, let go of me!” I flung his hands off my body, but I still couldn't move, much to my dismay. “I thought so. Let's just stop this.” His smirk was unmistakable. “Stop what?” I was so hot, I wanted him to touch me. “Let's give each other what we want, how about that, Aunt Candice?” …… Barely days after my best friend's famous hockey player son started living with me, he successfully dragged me to his bed. I should be ashamed, but he's too hot to resist. Will my best friend find out?
