Introduction
'EVERYONE OUT!! one of the gun holding men shouted from behind. The remaining customers ran outside. A proper moment of chaos.
Just when i was trying to get out that boy from earlier grabbed my wrist. Didn't they mean everyone?. A sudden rush of terror flashes over me.
"Where are you going dollface?" I can see his lips twitching up in a smirk. A devilish smirk. I feel my heart just dropped to the ground.
"Meet Isabella Grace, a college student who just wants a peaceful life. But her fate changes drastically in a single night when she meets Toby, the Mafia boss. Will she give in to him, or resist his flames?"
Chapter 1
"Isabella Grace's fate turned around in a single night when she met him, Toby, her sworn enemy. She was brought into the mafia world and later found out that her parents had been members of the mafia before her uncle killed them. Let's not ruin all the fun yeah? Yeah! let's get right into the story hehehe.
"So how's your college going Hope?" Alex grinned showing all his teeth.
"Just don't ask! I've been writing essays all day" I huffed in annoyance. "The more i try to focus i feel like a disappointment" i pouted.
"Aw, hard work huh? Don't worry i know you are capable to make it through" he patted my back. I smiled back.
Even though we met just a few days ago working here, but we both became really good friends
instantly. We were on our second round of talking behind our boss and laughing our asses off. It makes me glad that Alex and i bonded so well in such short time.
"Do you know him?" Alex suddenly pointed outside the glass. I lowered my eyebrows.
His back was turned at me so i couldn't see his face. He wore a black leather jacket and black jeans. By looks i didn't think i knew him.
"No, why are you asking?"
"Nothing he, he just seems dangerous. He's been pacing around for quite a long time. Do you think i should talk to him? He's scaring away our customers" he joked. I just rolled my eyes at him and smirked.
Not just a few minutes later that boy finally decided to come into the cafe. He walked straight to me and Alex. Never separating his eyes from mine. I was already having an unsettling feeling about this guy just then i spotted a gun in his right hand.
Boy is this for you real?
Before i could debate whether that gun was real or not he cleared my doubts by lifting his hands up and firing into the air. The sound of firing bombarded in the room.
Holy shit! What in the hell is happening?
My ears were ringing from the sudden blast. Both James and I were utterly shocked. We looked at each other with widened eyes. In the meantime two more guys entered the cafe. Each of them had a gun in his hand. If this isn't a crime movie scene that I'm probably dreaming of right now, please save me God!
'EVERYONE OUT!! one of the guys shouted from behind. The customers ran outside. A proper moment of chaos.
Just when i was trying to get out that boy from earlier grabbed my wrist. Didn't they meant everyone?. A sudden rush of shiver ran down my spine.
"Where are you going dollface?" I can see his lips twitching up in a smirk. A devilish smirk. I felt my heart sink to my feet.
'Doll face' he sounded so familiar. His blue eyes i-i've seen those before.
I struggled in his grip. Tears were already gathering at the corner of my eyes. My heart was beating ten times faster than usual. I let a loud scream out.
"Shut up. Don't make this any worse than it already is." he hissed at me placing his gun under my chin harshly. More tears started streaming down.
"Hey, let her go" I saw Alex from the corner of my eyes. He's coming forward to save me. But I gave him a hint by my hand to stay there. 'call police' i mouthed at him.
I don't even know if he understood what I was saying because I was practically shaking. I guess he got me because he halted and snuck behind the counter to use the land phone.
Suddenly there were two more gunshots. This time not in the air. My heart literally jumped out of my mouth when i saw Alex falling down to the floor on his knees. He got shot in the arms. His white shirt covered in blood.
"Told you not to make it worse," the maniac in front of me said dramatically.
His grip tightened more as I was wincing in pain. I couldn't believe my eyes. I was laughing with Alex few minutes ago and now he's on the floor groaning in pain.
'Come with me' he mumbled under his breath and dragged me out of the cafe. No matter how much i kicked and struggled with him, it didn't make his grip any less loose.I was no match for him.
He pushed me into a black car, entered with the other guys and started the car. Everything was super fuzzy. I was crying so hard that i couldn't even grasp what was happening around me. The car started moving at high speed.
I was in the backseat in the middle of two people. On my right there was a blonde girl who scoffed at me as soon as i looked at her. On my left a boy was sitting. He flashed a smile at me and said "hi' when i looked at him I ignored him. I was almost done processing if it was a kidnap or a robbery.
Aha! I was being kidnapped.
I was breathing so fastly. I glanced at the front seat and i saw the 'Mr doll face' from earlier driving the car.
TOBY!! TOBY!!! how can i not know him.
Toby Knight, the most powerful businessman all over the world. You'd often see news about him in magazines. Everyone knows he leads most of the crimes rings around but there's really no evidence against him. I'm kidnapped by none other than the infamous Toby knight.
Well I'm officially doomed.
"PP-Please let m-me go, i d-didn't do anything. Let me g-go" i was crying so hard when i begged them to release me.
"Do you think we went through the stress of kidnapping you only to let you go?" The blonde girl snapped at me with disgust and rolled her eyes. I clearly don't get what i did to annoy her so much.
"Do you want her to celebrate being here Steph?" the boy on my left snapped at the girl named 'Steph' i assume.
If only i could throw a nobel prize at him. He seemed to hate her with passion, just like me.
"Shut up, Mike" She snapped again.
I heard chuckles from Toby and the other guy who was in the passenger seat by him.
"Why did you bring her Daniel? She's useless with that mouth of hers that only splits venom Mike groaned. He was talking about Steph to the guy beside Toby.
"At least I'm better than your girlfriend who can't even hold a gun properly" Steph made fun of him. Mike was fuming with anger.
"Dani tell her not to take Audrey's name on her mouth' he said to Daniel.
"I never did" Steph rolled her eyes.
She's so dramatic. I took advantage of their mini argument which seems to distract their attention from me.
I'm so glad i always carry a pepper spray with me when i was hallucinating creepy followers behind me, now i know for sure i wasn't hallucinating. It must be them.
I don't even know what I'm thinking. Seriously? A pepper spray is gonna save me from knights? I am probably the dumbest person alive but i need to give a last push to my hope.
That's why I pulled out the spray and sprayed it over Stephs eyes. She let out a squeal. Of course everyone in the car was surprised by the stunt i just pulled. They probably never imagined I would do this. And boy, neither did I.
I quickly bent over to unlock the car door. And guess what, I did it. I pushed Steph and jumped outside. Everything happened in a super fast motion before anyone could do anything i hit the ground with a loud thud.
'Bitch' i heard Steph hiss under her breath. I know She got injured but right now i could care less about her. I was running for my dear life.
I heard the car stop immediately with a screeching sound. I can't believe i got away so easily.
Or not?

“I thought you said you were done chasing me?” Gen mocked.
“I am done chasing you.”
Before she could formulate a witty remark, Matteo threw her down. She landed hard on her back atop his dining room table. She tried to sit up when she noticed what he was doing. His hands were working on his belt. It came free of his pants with a violent yank. She collapsed back on her elbows, her mouth gaping open at the display. His face was a mask of sheer determination, his eyes were a dark gold swimming with heat and desire. His hands wrapped around her thighs and pulled her to the edge of the table. He glided his fingers up her thighs and hooked several around the inside of her panties. His knuckles brushed her dripping sex.
“You’re soaking wet, Genevieve. Tell me, was it me that made you this way or him?” his voice told her to be careful with her answer. His knuckles slid down through her folds and she threw her head back as she moaned. “Weakness?”
“You…” she breathed.

The CEO's Unspoken Love
Before I could answer, he moved closer, suddenly looming over me, his face inches from mine. I felt my breath caught, my lips parting in surprise.
"Then this is the price for speaking ill of me to others," he murmured, nipping my lower lip before claiming my mouth in a real kiss. It began as punishment but quickly transformed into something else entirely as I responded, my initial rigidity melting into compliance, then active participation.
My breathing accelerated, small sounds escaping my throat as he explored my body. His touches were both punishment and pleasure, drawing shudders from me that I thought he felt reverberating through his own body.
My nightgown had ridden up, his hands discovering more of mine with each caress. We were both lost in sensation, rational thought receding with each passing second...
Three years ago, to fulfill the wish of his grandmother, I was forced to marry Derek Wells, the second son of the family that had adopted me for ten years. He didn't love me, but I had secretly loved him all along.
Now, the three-year contractual marriage is about to end, but I feel that some kind of sentiment has developed between Derek and me that neither of us is willing to admit. I'm not sure if my feelings are right, but I know that we can't resist each other physically...

I Found the Babies

I shivered.

The Contract Wife: Marriage Of Malice
He didn't finish. He didn't need to.
I didn't tell him to stop.
Instead, my fingers curled into his shirt, clutching the fabric as though it was my only anchor. Something in him snapped—something he had been holding back for too long. His mouth found mine in a kiss that wasn't tender, but hungry, desperate.
I gasped into him, his hand sliding up to cup my jaw, holding me as if afraid I might vanish.
"You drive me insane," he breathed against my mouth, his lips trailing to my throat. "I can't lose you, Ella. Not you."
My head fell back, a soft sound escaping me as his fingers memorized my waist. My anger melted beneath his desperation.
"James..." I whispered, more plea than protest.
His hand caught mine, fingers threading together tightly. "I'll bring him back. I swear it. Just... don't turn away from me. Please."
The word please—low, ragged, almost broken—undid me more than anything else could have.

Vengeance of the Forsaken Luna
"Bella." Ethan's tone shifted, taking on that warning edge I knew too well. "Faye is vulnerable right now. She's terrified you'll resent her, that this will divide the pack. The last thing she wants is for this baby to come between us."
"Then you shouldn't have done it." I met his eyes squarely, letting him see the ice in mine. "Go back to your son."
"For fuck's sake." He dragged a hand through his hair. "How many times—it was artificial insemination. They used my sperm, yes, but Faye and I never—"
Bella let out a cold snort. Such brazen lies. Her mate had an affair with his brother's partner, and his entire family helped force her out with nothing, all to make way for the mistress to take her rightful position. Poor fool—he thought she was just an unwanted adopted daughter, easy to dismiss and control. He never knew the computer genius he'd been searching for was his own Luna.
Since he'd tainted himself, Bella was done. She rejected him and reclaimed what was hers, rising to the top with help from Victor, who'd been secretly in love with her for years.
When Ethan tried winning her back: "You don't want our child growing up fatherless."
Bella smiled mockingly. "The child's father isn't you."
