Alexa

It was just us, my sister and me.

At age nineteen, I was content to live within Kathy’s shadow to evade facing the demons of my past, where I felt safe, protected and blinded from everything I had spent so long running away from.

But then Kathy left for work one night and never came home.

Lost in hope and forced to leave the shield I had built around myself, I traipsed in my sister’s footsteps, desperate to uncover the truth behind her disappearance, and found myself sat in a familiar spot, gazing out of the same window to watch the only person I knew had the answers, Kathy’s former boss, Liam Warren, the most ruthless crime lord in London.

You don’t approach a man like him or solicit favors from a renowned criminal.

You didn’t lie to get a job at his club or portray to be someone you’re not.

And most importantly, you do not fall in love with him.

Follow Alexa’s journey of love and heartbreak, where she finds out everything she once knew turned out to be a lie.

“You’re joking, right?” I ask, staring back at my father. Hoping like hell this was just a poor and tasteless prank.
He narrows his green eyes; a pair matching my own. He doesn’t say a word. Instead, he takes a sip of his drink, all the while keeping his gaze on me.

“Do you see me as the joking type?” He counters and lowers the tumbler.

Angela Bonetti is to be married to a man she does not know. She dutifully boards the plane to New York. But from here on out, Angela’s quiet secluded life no longer exists.

Alessandro Rivera a mercenary, who is set on revenge. Only his plan backfires, and the one person he never wanted to hurt, did.

Hayley wasn’t in an underground club for the love of it, no she was hiding. She wanted to forget the people she ran from and keep the darkness within her hidden for good. That was the plan, that was all before she met Luca Marcello.

The mob boss has one motto; NEVER FALL IN LOVE! To love is to lose and to lose is to die. He was happy in his violent ways, his fast cars, and his feather girls. Until he met the fiery British girl hiding behind the featherless mask in his club.

His dark side is pulling her in but she is forced between right and wrong and she is forced to choose between doing the right thing or loving Luca. But she is finding that loving Luca Marcello is not easy and she is about to let the darkness she was running from take over her once again.

“Arie,” he whispered, his smile dropping as he closed the distance between us. “I’m sor…”

My right hand met his left cheek brutally, stopping all that he had to say. “How dare you?” I hissed, landing another smack on the same spot. “How could you do this to me?” I raised my hand up again to place another one, but he caught my wrist before I could do so.

“Plan your next move very carefully,” he spoke in a low, belligerent tone tightening his grip on my wrist, daring me to slap him again. Pain jolted from the area, forcing tears to sting at the corner of my eyes.

“Or what?” I scowled at him.

“You don’t want to find out.” He took a step closer, staring into my eyes. “And don’t tempt me!”

Today was the day it all started. Everything began to fall apart. It twisted me, threw me against the wall, and ripped my sanity and innocence to shreds. I never thought I’d go through it, but there I was in the middle of it all.

Kade Mitchell was a glitch in this universe. But as long as he had me beneath him, he loved it and thrived off it. As long as he was feared, and had immense power over those ignorant enough to cross his path, no one could stop him.

Like father, like son. I should have known sleeping with the spawn of the psychotic Toby Mitchell would put me in so much danger, but I craved him, just as much as he wanted me. Until we gave in to our dirty desires and messed it all up.

Fucking my best friend’s brother was my first mistake, falling for the man without a heart was my worst.

Underneath the devil’s skin, buried into the fucking void of his darkness, I will find a glimmer of his humanity.

Even if I die trying.

“God. I can’t wait to get the fuck out of here.” Cole, my dorm mate, grumbled, tossing his arm over his eyes.

“I bet I know why,” I mused. “How are things going with the vivacious blonde hair sassy mouth beauty back home?” I asked and laughed when he flipped me off.

“So, are you going back home now since you got your business degree?” he asked, peeking at me under his arm.

I harumphed. “Nah. You know, home isn’t quite the same without my mom there anymore.”

My mother’s face instantly flashed before my eyes, sending a sting to my heart. I miss her more and more every day.

“Then what’s your plan?” he asked me.

Licking the blunt wrap filled with weed, I twisted it tightly at the end and balanced it between my lips. “I haven’t figured it out just yet. I suppose I should start though,” I chuckled and then lit the end, slowly inhaling a long drag.

He pinched the blunt from my fingers as I blew out a lung full of purple haze, and instantly started coughing.

“Shit, man. Why not come back home with me?” he suddenly asked before taking a hit from the blunt.

I laughed. “So we can get high with your hometown buddies and piss away the summer.”

“Well, yeah. That and check out the new underground club my buddy Jacks told me about last week. I know the owner, I’m sure I can see if he needs any help-you know, put some money in our pockets for the summer.”

Spearing a hand through my hair, I couldn’t deny to myself that his offer sounded pretty sweet.

Raising a brow, I looked at him, questionably. “Your mom would be ok with a guy she doesn’t even know staying there for the summer?”

He laughed. “My mom won’t be a problem, trust me.”

Hell, what could be the harm in blowing off steam for the summer?

Inhaling another drag from the blunt, I smirked at him. “Fuck it. Count me in.”

I heard the boy’s voice before I saw his face. It sounded like the smooth rehearsed kind of voice you hear in the movies, from the dream boat lead character with the too-good-to-be-true looks. I raised my eyes to search for the owner of the beautiful sound.
My eyes met his just as he came into view.

He stopped in his tracks, bumping into one of the med students he was following, staring straight at Me.

“Mate,” he said just loud enough for the huge man behind him to stop and stare in the direction of the boy’s gaze.

I felt a sickening feeling deep in my stomach. I had never felt anything like it before, the instant feeling of nausea followed by what i can only describe as a rush of emotion. What a trip.

The meds are extra strong today I laughed to myself as I continued to stare at the beautiful dark-haired boy.

This institution just got a whole lot better if he is a patient
