"I-I should be heading to my room now." I told him not in anyway ready to face him. "Turn around." He instructed. "Your fiancee may w-wake up soon to use t-the bathroom or discover no ones t-there." This would definitely not be a good look. Stop stuttering, I mentally chanted. "She won't." Was his response. "Please, I must head back to my r-room." I informed him, it had already been too long since we were in the bathroom alone. "You won't be getting out of here until you comply with my instructions." He informed. What game was he playing! I obliged and did what he said slowly turning around with my eyes tightly. * Unedited! Exclusively signed to wattpad.

She was the daughter of head of the "Ravens" the Spanish mafia which was in the control of most of the Southern Europe. She was in no sense weak or reckless. Her eyes were colder than ice and words dipped in strongest of poisons. Ethereal. she was absolutely ethereal. But behind her intoxicating smile, there was something dangerous, something absolutely chilling. He was the son of head of the "Hemlocks" the German mafia in control of the Western Europe. He was arrogant, and why wouldn't he be? He had it all. Money, power, fame, and to top it all, looks. But there was his demeanor, so cold, so indifferent, so calculating, that no one dared to anger him. He had built around him a wall, not of bricks, but of steel. He was not aggressive unnecessarily, unlike how one might imagine a mafia leader to be. He never killed more than he needed to, but he never failed to strike those he once caught upon. She hated him. After all, he was the one who caused her so much misery throughout her life. He hated her. After all, he had to suffer at the hands of her family, because of her. What could go wrong- no. What couldn't go wrong if they have to be under the same roof?

She was never anyone's first choice. Never the one they longed for, never the name whispered in love, never the heart someone ached for. She was just *there*-a replacement, a temporary fix for someone else's absence. When things went wrong, when mistakes needed a scapegoat, the blame always found its way to her. It didn't matter if she deserved it. It never did. And then, *he* happened. He didn't see her as a substitute. He didn't compare her to ghosts of the past. He loved her-*chose* her-like she was the only one who had ever mattered. He held her when she wanted to disappear, stayed when she pushed him away, made her feel like she was something more than just an afterthought. But love was never kind to people like her. Theirs wasn't a fairytale. It wasn't easy. It wasn't perfect. It was messy, painful, riddled with scars from battles neither of them were prepared to fight. But they held on. Because for the first time, she wasn't someone's second choice. She was *his*. And she would rather shatter into a thousand pieces than lose that. Even if it broke her. Even if fate was never on their side.

Book one of the Costello series "He held me underwater and every time I was beginning to drown he'd briefly let me up for air, and then he'd suffocate me all over again." ... Its all well and good having motivation and dedication, but without a backstory? The dedication means shit. I've had a life straight from a horror story. Mix in 10 brothers, a loving set of parents, cousins, grandparents, best friends, a 7'0ft Mexican god and the reign of the underworld and let's see where I end up. ... Can you keep up?

For people like me, the darkness clings like damp rot, and any flicker of light snuffs out before it can warm the soul." "You might be different," he said, voice soft. "There's goodness in you." I laughed, a bitter edge cutting through. "After the wreckage I've left behind? No, I'm no exception. And neither are you." In a world crawling with criminals, where mobsters pull the strings and masks hide every face, beauty is just a lure for the unwary. The most breathtaking places? They're the deadliest traps. Kaleb Amato, Ridgewood High's golden quarterback, reigns with swagger and a mind sharp as a blade. A bright future gleams ahead-arrogant, untouchable. A hero? Hardly. Mia Langley, a firecracker with a tongue like a whip and a mind in splinters, storms back after two years in a brutal boot camp. Sweet? Innocent? The idea's a punchline. She's home now, but DyverCity's first rule has slipped her mind: don't let its seductive shimmer fool you. This city's a Venus flytrap-get caught in its jaws, and you're not getting out alive.
