Chapter 1
His index finger lifted her chin so she looked at him, her hands trembling in the ropes that bound them. “You should’ve thought twice before you stepped into that club.”
Tears settled in Larisa’s eyes, but she detested letting them fall. “I’m…I’m s-sorry, please f-forgive me.”
“Forgive you? No, little reporter, forgiveness is for accidents. You knowingly walked into my world.” His thumb ran along her shaking lips. “I have the footage, I have your life in the palm of my hands. The only way you survive this is by wagging your tail behind me like a good little puppy.”
“Please…”
“Whenever I call~ you’ll answer, and whatever I ask for~ you’ll give. Failure to comply, I’ll release the videos, and the only place left for you would be behind bars…”
His eyes narrowed in on her, probably his way of showing her that he meant every word that came out of his mouth. “And not even there would you be safe from me.”
Larisa had known it was a bad idea, but her desperation had finally led her to her demise.
It was a tip from an anonymous person, information that could’ve not been true, and yet she’d gone ahead and trusted it. It had been wrong of her, but her craving for money was what blinded her eyes.
The call came in at the office at approximately 1:00pm in the afternoon, a male voice; rough and husky had asked... ‘Is this reporter Larisa Bronc?’
‘Yes...’ Larisa had replied, curiosity clear in her tone as she continued to speak. ‘May I know who’s calling and why?’
‘I won’t be disclosing that. Introductions aren’t mandatory, especially when you’re just dropping off a tip. A dangerous one at that.’
‘A tip...?’
‘Julian Maverick...full proof that he’s in league with the Mafia will be at ‘Thirst’ club. The location is 73 Borden Street, New York. He’ll be there as soon as the clock hits 7:00pm. The passcode to the exclusive wing is ‘I’m blind’ and I’ll send somebody to drop off a card that you’ll need along with that to get in.’
And then the call ended. She had tried calling back, but it went straight to voicemail. Just as promised, she received a card from a delivery guy. She wasn’t sure why the person called for her specifically. She was a failure as a reporter and Julian...Julian Maverick was a businessman, the most successful of them all. His company established a worldwide presence and consistently topped the charts.
The man was a billionaire; he walked on Gucci and spat out Balenciaga. His only flaw was the rumours that he’s an undercover thug.
But of course, nobody believed it, and perhaps that’s why Larisa thought if she could really find the proof and cover a story, she’d be a failure no more. Her article would draw people in like candy did kids, it would sell, and her history of being broke and unsuccessful would vanish for at least a time.
However, that was the stupidest mistake she’d ever made in her life.
She shouldn’t have gone to that damn club, and when she spotted Chase Santiago; a criminal who had been indicted multiple times with Julian in the exclusive wing, she shouldn’t have taken pictures.
If she hadn’t, then she wouldn’t have been kidnapped and thrown in an expensive hotel room...hands tied behind her back and a cloth sealing her mouth.
If she hadn’t, then she wouldn’t have been blackmailed~ submission in exchange for her life...
If she hadn’t, then this mess she was currently in, she wouldn’t have been in it.
Damn!
Her tied hands clenched into fists as the tears finally fell. “You don’t have to do this…” She begged. “I-If you let me go, then I promise nobody will know about this. Nobody would even know that I met you.”
“Is that so?” He smirked.
Larisa nodded frantically, whimpering when his grip on her chin suddenly became painful. “Yes, I promise.”
“Well, Larisa…I’m not the type of man who puts their faith in promises. It’s either you conform to my words, or I’ll kill you even if you end up behind bars.”
Looking away, Larisa let out a quiet sob when the weight of her actions finally became too heavy to bear. Her bad choices had buried her in a world of danger she didn’t even know existed. If this was to go up on the news, then the headline would be:
Larisa Bronc; 21-year-old reporter had finally dug her own grave.
She never once dreamt something like this would ever happen to her. All she wanted was a story, but this was what she got instead.
Another sob drifted up her throat as she nodded. “Yes, I’ll…I’ll be your dog.”
A pleased smiled stretched across his lips. “Good call.”
This was…it was blackmail…cruel and heartless BLACKMAIL.

But when that same stranger's doctor appeared at my door, when twenty million dollars exchanged hands over a fake perfume bearing my secret identity, and when Damon's gray eyes locked onto mine with recognition I couldn't afford, I realized my carefully hidden life as the legendary perfumer Vera was colliding with a pregnancy that could cost me everything.
Could I protect my babies from the husband plotting my death, hide my true identity from the Alpha who's been hunting me for years, and reclaim the freedom I'd buried along with my dreams—even if it means standing alone against the wolves who see me as nothing more than a womb to be used and discarded?

Bride To The Werewolf King
My Perverse: You're mine, you son of a bitch
Vincenzo Valentini is a man who sees the world as a business counter and human beings as merchandise.
The owner of an empire built upon corpses and submission, he is the reflection of pure perversity.
When fate places Andrew Thompson, the son of his greatest rival, into his hands, the plan was simple: use him, break him, and discard him like a toy that has lost its appeal.
What Vincenzo did not expect was that, beneath the youthful skin and the appearance of innocence, Andrew hid the same abyss as he did.
Vincenzo never wanted redemption. He never wanted someone to save him from his own darkness. He was seeking a mirror. And in Andrew, he found the partner who, upon seeing his blood-stained hands, does not recoil in terror, but trembles with desire.
In this perverse game, the "little toy" proves to be the perfect executioner. The mafia leader found someone who not only accepts his cruel side but cultivates it, feeding the monster Vincenzo has always been.
Where there should have been fear, lust emerged. Where there should have been hatred, a perverse loyalty was born. Andrew Thompson is the dark reflection of Vincenzo, the soldier the underworld did not see coming, and the man who proved that, for some, paradise only makes sense if it is in the middle of chaos.
Vincenzo opened the doors to his empire, but Andrew was the only one capable of invading his heart.
They are not heroes. They are hell on earth.
Bella and Her Beast
.

A secret they tried to protect the world from. Her only escape comes in the form of the books she reads. Stories of heat, desire, and the kind of love that could melt even her frostbitten heart.
Damien is the Beast. A dragon King with a temper forged in flame and a soul hollowed by duty. The world fears him. The people call him a monster. But beneath the scales and the rage lies a man who has never been touched by love.
When frost meets fire, the world shatters. She was never meant to leave her tower. He was never meant to find her. But destiny doesn’t bow to kings or care for cages and now the question burns through them both: Can Bella have her Beast? Or will the girl of snow melt in the heat of his desire?
.
"I’m keeping her."
"What?"
Before I can react, he scoops her up. Her small body fits easily in the cradle of his talons. For a split second, she looks startled, but not afraid. Her hand rests against one scaled finger, and she stares up at him with that same curious wonder, as though she’s already forgotten she was ever meant to fear me.
"Put her down," I try to command, panic threading through my thoughts. "You’ll hurt her."
"She’s ours," the beast insists, possessive and fierce. "Our snowflake."
