His Empire, Her Heart

A Dark Mafia Romance by MAUCMORAH

He built an empire from blood.
She came to destroy it.
Neither expected to fall in love.

Lorenzo De Luca is a man forged in power and shadow — the billionaire heir to Italy’s most feared crime dynasty. In Milan’s glittering skyline, he is untouchable: cold, calculating, and dangerously magnetic. Behind every whispered deal and ruthless command lies a man bound by loyalty, haunted by a past soaked in betrayal. To his enemies, he’s a devil. To his empire, a king. And to the world, a mask of control.

Isabella Romano has spent years feeding her hatred. The De Luca name destroyed her family, and now she’s returned to make Lorenzo pay. Disguised and determined, she steps into his world of luxury, deceit, and violence — a world where every smile hides a threat and every secret can kill. But when she looks into his eyes, she sees the truth no one dares to face: beneath the monster lies a man capable of love.

What begins as deception turns to obsession. Passion becomes peril. And when the truth finally surfaces, both must face the price of their sins. Because in a world ruled by blood and loyalty, love is the one crime that can’t be forgiven.

Torn between vengeance and desire, Isabella must choose: destroy the man who ruined her life… or surrender to the man who could save her soul.
And Lorenzo must decide what matters more — the empire he built… or the woman who could bring it to its knees.

In his world, love isn’t salvation. It’s surrender.

Sloane Mercer is the woman every government calls when the world is on fire and no one knows which line of code lit the match. Cold, brilliant and alone by choice, she has turned her past betrayals into armor. Then the one man she was never supposed to see again walks into her penthouse as her new bodyguard. Eli Ward was meant to be a nameless escape in a Berlin hotel room, not the person standing between her and a predator who knows too much. As cyberattacks twist into something obsessively personal and the media begins to feast on their chemistry, Sloane’s tidy categories of ally and threat blur. Loving him could cost her everything she has fought to build. Pushing him away might be the mistake that finally destroys her. How do you choose between the life you built and the one person who feels like home?

The curse binds the next child born of the one loved by the witch Blaze, their bloodline to another doesn't truly matter as the creature that is not their fated mate will fall in love, it twists one's wolf into loving a creature till they eventually come to an end, however, can all hearts truly love?

Stuck in a super-gluey situation, John Callahan has no choice but to call for his doctor to get him out. Expecting the grey-haired sixty-year-old man with the middle of his hair missing, John is stunned when a sexy, early-thirties female doctor walks in.
Belinda stares at the first emergency she had just after getting hired and she never expected what she was looking at.

John Callahan, the unapproachable billionaire, naked and stuck inside a woman. It was obvious what they were doing but what surprised Belinda was how they managed to superglue themselves to each other amid their lovemaking.
With red cheeks, Belinda gave orders to the guards on how to separate the couple.
One thing leads to another and John who had never had an orgasm inside a woman, released all his seed on Belinda’s face while she was doing nothing but treating his wound.

A forbidden romance ensues between the two, and of all the women in the world, the one that catches John’s eyes is the one that is off-limits to him.
Will he be able to convince her to be with him despite the consequences they would face?
Will They have a happy ending?

Kieran initially sees her as nothing more than a tool, offering her a contract: her freedom in exchange for her father’s, confining her to his mansion as his exclusive restorer. But as he watches her focused dedication while restoring art and her unyielding defiance to stand up to him, he gradually begins to soften. He makes exceptions to keep her for dinner and silently brings her warm drinks when she stays up late. The contract that was once meant to bind her gradually becomes his excuse to keep her, and before he knows it, he has already fallen in love with this girl who shines even in his shadow.

"How dare you lie to me" Growled Zain.
" I did not lie to you, I thought my virginity is not big deal to you" I cried.

Will Zain accept Xhani as his, even after finding out that she had lost her virginity to someone else.

Born of Alpha bloodline, Twilight is destined to succeed her father in ruling the Sliver Dragon Pack. The young, free-spirited alpha female is the strongest warrior in the pack, surpassing even her own father, and never cared about whether or not she would find her mate. Until the day she found him, the young Alpha-to-be of a neighbouring pack. Only to have him reject her for his bed buddy.

Enraged and broken-hearted, she ran away and got severely injured along the way. Suddenly, she woke up in an unfamiliar place, only to find that her second-chance mate, Takumi, saved her. But her now cold-hearted self refuses to accept another mate but he won't give up that easily. Can Takumi win the Alpha's heart?

Here’s a little sneak peek:
“Imagine the one person who was literally made for you, supposed to be your other half and complete you in a way that no one else can and yet wants nothing to do with you. I’m over it, but I still feel like a monster for how I reacted to it. I know it happened a long time ago, but I still hate myself for it. His dad said it was ok, but I think he only said it to make me feel less guilty and deep down he hates me. And I'm pretty sure everyone else feels the same way.”
It was then that she felt a little wetness on her face; she didn't realize that tears were streaming down her cheeks the whole time. That's when she broke down into more tears. Takumi pulled her into a hug.

Three years ago, Joe Jevon destroyed my career.

Now, I have to trust him with my future.

Valentina Cross has spent years fighting for a place on the racing grid, determined to prove that a woman can compete with the best drivers in the world. But when Blackthorn Racing gives her the opportunity of a lifetime, it comes with one humiliating condition.

She has one season to prove she belongs.

And her trainer is Joe Jevon, the three-time world champion whose devastating crash nearly ended her career.

Joe is everything Valentina despises. Arrogant, infuriatingly talented, and far too good at getting under her skin. He is also the man she once trusted more than anyone, the man whose late-night calls made her heart race long before she ever stepped onto a professional track.

Then one accident destroyed everything between them.

Valentina has no intention of forgiving him, much less falling for him again. She is there to win, not to revisit the past. But as the competition intensifies and their training sessions become increasingly dangerous, the hatred between them begins to blur into something neither is prepared to face.

Joe knows she wants revenge. What he doesn’t know is whether she can ever forgive him.

And Valentina is beginning to wonder if the man she blames for ruining her life is hiding a truth that could change everything she thought she knew about that night.

With a championship on the line, enemies closing in, and feelings neither can afford to admit, Valentina must decide what matters more: beating the man who broke her heart or trusting him enough to discover the truth.

Because on the track, hesitation can cost you everything.

And in love, the wrong person can be the most dangerous risk of all.

They've known each other for ten years, been in love for six, and married for three.
Yet he personally sent her to hell...
Blood draws, surgeries, a car accident, a raging fire—step by step, he led her to her demise, even sparing not their child.
But when she truly died, he went mad searching for her...
Sophia... come back to me. You loathe me so much, how can you just die...

How long would you wait for the one you were fated to love?
And how many lifetimes would you live to find your way back to them?

Penelope was only fifteen when she offered her soul to her fated beloved, binding their souls in sacred vowfire. When he left for war, she knew that so long as their fire burned, he would return to her.

For fifteen years, Penelope ruled her island kingdom, holding off the droves of suitors from the surrounding islands and the mainland who sought her throne. Her people whispered that she was stubborn. Unyielding. Cursed. And she let them believe that and kept her eyes on the horizon, waiting for him to return.

Their fire burned on, and her faith remained unwavering.

Until the day she died, and the trap she’d laid sprang, giving her the chance to turn back the clock and chart a new course for the war that stole everything from her.

But she is not the only one who has come back in time, nor is she the first, and there is much more at stake than her fated love and the future that had been stolen from them.

Goddess bless her blood-stained path.

His voice, low and gruff broke my thoughts of obsession, "Use me."

It was like a bucket of cold water was thrown on my chest. I turned to him with a scoff full of disbelief. I wanted laugh and throw my hands in the air to show him that I understood what he said was a joke.

But the darkness in his eyes and the heaviness of his brow told me different. He was serious. He tilted his head, his eyes flickering to my lips for a moment before returning to my eyes.

"Use you?"

He shrugged, his eyes landing on my lips again, "I can keep him from bothering you."

"Like a bodyguard?" My stomach was twisting inside me, a ball of nerves making me feel light.

His shoulders shook as he chuckled, lifting his eyes to mine, "You know that's not what I mean."

[My remaining lifespan: 36 Hours]

I didn't fight back when my brother kicked me into the mud using the very leg I gave my life force to heal.
But when I opened my bedroom door to find my husband thrashing in our bed with another woman—and he smashed my bleeding head against the floor just to shut me up—something inside me finally snapped.
With 12 hours left, my in-laws shatter my bones.
With 3 hours left, my husband hands me a poisoned drink.

But I punched in the door code three times, and it was wrong all three times.

She was wearing a man's white dress shirt. The hem barely reached the tops of her thighs.
I recognized that shirt. It was the one I'd given Nathan last Christmas.

Humanity has long since abandoned Earth for strange planets in the furthest reaches of the galaxy. People on the hostile planet of Xyros Prime, where there is constant struggle for few resources, have grown to depend on extremely sophisticated robots in order to survive. These machines are seen as tools since they lack emotion and are made for work, combat, and service. However, Selene Callahan, a bright but emotionally distant scientist, unintentionally produces more than she intended when she designs a new artificial intelligence program meant to evolve consciousness.
Selene's only goals are to live, think creatively, and exert influence over her surroundings.

However, Xyros Prime is hidden from view, and Selene may be powerless to stop the far-reaching effects of her creation.

"Listen, Isabella. There are three reasons why you have to be mine, and I'll reveal them to you gradually. So, don't be stubborn about this situation because you don't have any other choice. Be rest assured," he spoke calmly, a stark contrast to the chaos within me. His composure irritated me, as all I wanted was to mourn my mother's death in peace, not add more burden to my sorrow.

This man seemed utterly heartless.

I planned to give up on life.
Then I heard a cat yelling at a dog.
"Stop being so stubborn, meow! You will die!"
Wait, I can hear them?
Naturally, I bought the dog.
I spent my life savings—twenty dollars—to save a Golden Retriever who apparently curses in dog language.
We just make sense together: a broken human eating crushed instant ramen, and a broken dog deciding to protect her anyway.
I thought my sudden ability to understand their constant, hilarious bickering was just fate tossing me a bone.
But what I was completely unaware of was that this wasn't a glitch in the universe.
It was a supernatural kind of love.
And these two beautiful, damaged little animals hadn't just saved me from the edge... they were about to change my entire life...

But when their worlds start to tangle, secrets slip through cracks, and the lines between hate and want blur way too fast…
One thing becomes clear—
In Apartment 7B, silence isn’t the most dangerous thing.

Desire is.

It wasn't just about what this lady was wearing. It was her. Something to do with the way she moved. Like she was one with the music and with the stage. The music pounded in a hypnotic rhythm that was unashamedly sexual, and she moved and danced in time to the beat, her movements graceful and seductive. So much confidence and balance. Balance that should have been nearly possible with the length of the heel shoes that she was putting on, but she made it look so natural... So easy, like she'd been born with high, slender spikes attached to her feet.

There was something captivating... Almost hypnotizing about this woman, and Dimitri found him self leaning closer to watch. To take in every sight of this beautiful goddess.

She was a vision of feminine perfection, every man's fantasy and Dimitri felt sharp claws of lust drag through his loins. On the opposite side, Dimitri saw a man half rise to his feet, a look of naked longing in his eyes. He didn't blame the man. What man wouldn't be captivated by such a beauty?

Rye: I'm out for revenge. I just saw Lauren Blakewell on national TV. Twelve years after she and her con woman mother scammed my father and ruined our lives, there she was. Looking like a goddess. Engaged to the son of a U.S. senator. She and her evil mother never paid for what they did. But I’ve never forgotten. Now I’m going to DC and I’m out for justice. I’m Rye McAllister, heir to the former McAllister fortune, and I’m going to stand up for my family. Lauren will pay. One way or another, I’ll get her back. Lauren: I’m so close to freedom. So close. One more job, and Bliss will let me go. That’s why the sight of Rye McAllister is such a shock. Not because he was the subject of all my childhood fantasies. Not because he looks like a tough and sexy cowboy now. But because he can ruin everything for me. I have to stop him. Whatever it takes. I have to make him an offer he can’t refuse. A proposition he can’t resist. If I enjoy it too…that’ll be my secret. And I have more secrets than Rye can ever imagine.

"Will Louis ever find her?

"Will Skylar accept him into her life again?"


"Strip!

"Huh? Skylar bit on her lips in exasperation. Her hands wrapped around her protectively as if that could stop him.

"I won't repeat myself! He snorted.

"Strip now before I call the guards to come do it for you."

"You'll call the guards?

"Do you doubt it?" Louis smirked. He took his phone and made a call. "I want you and Tom over here now."

"Boss you called for us?

"Yes, because I want you to get her out of those clothes!

"Louis, I'm your Wife! How can you do this?

He ignored her cries and turned to the guards. "Why are those clothes still on her?

"Stop! Don't come Closer! Skylar cried, she eyed Louis with hatred and a tear dropped down her cheek.

"I'll take it off."

"Which one of you touched her? Louis asked the two Men as they were set to leave.

"I did," The tall guard replied happily. Hoping to get rewarded. But instead of a reward, Louis beckoned him closer and clipped his hand with a Garden Scissors.

"Don't Touch What Is Mine!

Eight years.
It took eight long, aching years to say his name without shaking.
Eight years to convince myself that he was just the past..not fate.
Rafael De Luca.
The name I used to whisper with a smile now tastes like poison on my tongue. He was my first love. The boy who promised me the stars and the moon—then vanished without a word. No goodbye. No explanation. Just news that he’d flown overseas to chase his Formula One debut.
And the worst part? A week later, his photo was splashed across the tabloids—hand in hand with a world-famous supermodel, wearing the smile I once thought was mine.
I thought we were over.
Until life threw the cruelest twist.
Now I’m standing in the garage of the biggest F1 team in the world—not as a spectator, not as a bitter ex...but as the head of PR, responsible for managing the public image of a four-time world champion.
Yes.
Him.
Rafael.
And he still has that smile.
The one that can shatter me in a heartbeat.
He still has those eyes—blue eyes that pierce through every memory I’ve tried to burn.
But I’m not the high school girl he walked away from.
I’m Vicky Alvarez now.
And this isn't a love story he can rewind at will.
…Or maybe ... it never really ended?

"Spread your legs. If you don't do as I say, I'll open your pussy with my whole hand. Understand?" His voice was calm and firm.

I whimpered loudly but nodded.

"Good baby, now let's get started on what I want. Will you be a good girl?" His voice was once again filled with coldness.

"Yes." I whispered as I clenched my teeth and managed to place my hands in his. His hands were big and held me firmly.

"Good girl." He replied sarcastically. But before he let go of my poor nipples, he rubbed his palms over the sensitive and delicate pussy...

I fell in love with Adrian Hale when I was fifteen.

I loved him in secret for six years. The purest year of my life was the one I spent at his grandmother's bedside—a volunteer no one knew about, asking for nothing in return. When a fire swallowed his car in Aspen, I pulled him out. It cost me every color in my world.

He proposed in my hospital room. "Marry me. I'll take care of you for the rest of your life."

I said yes. My secret love had finally chosen me.

By year six, I knew the truth: the code to our front door belongs to another woman. Hers is the name he says in the bathroom at three in the morning. His friends call me "the blind painter" to my face—and he lets them laugh.

The day he asked me to apologize to her, I took off my ring.

Thirty days later, I was gone.

Now he stands outside my gallery, begging me to come home, swearing he never loved anyone else.

He has no idea that the girl who loved him for twelve years was the one who stopped first.
