Owned by the Don

Story Bio: AMELIA HANSLEY writes to survive. Poetry is where she hides the things she can't say out loud. The loneliness, the longing, the quiet hope of being seen. To the world, she's just another girl with a perfect smile and unspoken struggles. But beneath it all, she dreams of a life bigger than the one she's trapped in. Just when her words begin to matter, everything falls apart. Pulled into the orbit of a man who offers protection wrapped in control, Amelia's world shifts into something darker , dangerous, and impossible to escape. He watches her like a promise and a threat all at once. Her world collapses-dragged into the hands of a man who promises protection... at a terrifying price. She looked for a hero- but he's the devil in disguise. She's stuck in a world where she doesn't belong. If that wasn't enough, an unnamed stalker kept crossing her. Can he be her savior? or the very person she needs saving from? Will she find the hero she's always written about, or will she fall into the clutches of the villain who thrives on destruction?

Elisa Rose agreed to a marriage of convenience with a man she barely knows-Dominico Moretti. To the world, he's a successful businessman. But behind that calm mask hides a ruthless mafia leader. Elisa has no idea who she just married. She isn't innocent either. She has her own secrets. Her own reasons for saying yes to this deal. On the outside, she seems bold and fearless, but inside, she's barely holding herself together. Dominico thought marriage would be just another transaction. Cold. Simple. Controlled. But Elisa gets under his skin in ways he can't explain. And as much as he tries to stay distant, he keeps getting pulled toward her. They clash. They argue. They pretend not to care. But what happens when hate starts to blur into something else? Two broken souls. One dangerous marriage. Can love grow in the middle of lies, secrets, and scars?

She thought love was a fairytale. He believed it was a weakness. Isabella Cruz only wanted peace after a shattering loss. But when fate pushed her into the path of Dominic Valente, Italy's most feared mafia Don, her life turned into a dangerous game of passion and power. Cold. Ruthless. Untouchable. Dominic ruled with blood and iron. Yet from the moment he saw Isabella, obsession consumed him. To him, she was no longer free, she was his. But in a world built on violence and betrayal, loving the Don comes with a price. Enemies circle in the shadows. Secrets could destroy them both. And Isabella must decide, fight for her freedom, or surrender to the man who would burn the world just to keep her by his side. One thing is certain: in this war of blood and desire, beauty may be the only weapon strong enough to tame the Don.

(Somewhat under editing 😩💔read for your own sanity) She thought she was just his assistant - until she became his weakness. Luca Moretti rules the city's underworld with precision and cruelty. His empire is built on loyalty, fear, and silence. But when his new assistant steps into his office, she brings something far more dangerous than betrayal: desire. Power. Obsession. Loyalty. She's his assistant - his shadow, his confidant, his secret sin. But when loyalty turns into obsession and protection becomes possession, lines blur between devotion and destruction. Loving a man like Luca Moretti isn't a fairytale. It's a confession written in blood. In a world where trust can kill and love is the ultimate risk, how far will she go to protect the man who could destroy her? Started: 4/11/25 End: .....

An Enemies-to-Lovers Mafia Romance They were never meant to be lovers. They were barely meant to survive each other. Veer Singhania-ruthless, cold-blooded, and India's most feared underground billionaire. As heir to the Singhania crime empire, he built his fortune on blood, betrayal, and unrelenting discipline. He doesn't believe in love. He believes in control. Inaya Raichand-fierce, fiery, and born to defy. The only daughter of the powerful Raichand cartel, sworn enemies of the Singhania's, she's spent her entire life resenting everything Veer stands for. She's whip-smart, sharp-tongued, and determined to escape the life she was born into. But when a brutal turf war threatens to destroy both empires, a deal is struck. A forced marriage to keep the peace. Neither of them wants it. Both of them refuse to back down. And as the lines between hate and desire blur, dangerous secrets begin to rise to the surface. In a world of power, pride, and betrayal, will they destroy each other-or be forced to choose love over loyalty?

My grief is a lie. His guilt a weapon. And remembering will destroy whoever I used to love. Maybe this was it. Maybe she had already crossed the line between the living and the lost. The thought of reuniting with Alexei, of seeing him again, wherever he was, felt less terrifying than stepping through that door to meet his killer. Death, at least, would have been merciful. Forget everything you think you know about mafia romance. This isn't a story about an innocent girl stumbling into a dangerous world. Claire lived in that world, she just can't remember how... or what it cost her. A love story where the deepest betrayal may be the one you inflict on yourself. Fair warning: this book will break you, reshape you, and leave you desperate for answers you're too afraid to face. ⚠️ Content Disclaimer ⚠️ This work contains mature themes and potentially triggering content, including but not limited to: violence, death, emotional abuse, manipulation, trauma, sexual tension, and morally complex relationships.

Isabella Bianchi is a doctor, a woman of logic, discipline, and control....just trying to complete her residency in hospital of Rome. Her life is confined to the walls of the hospital, her heart guarded behind layers of self-built walls. Love is a distraction, an unnecessary burden-especially when she barely has time to breathe. But then there's him. Damian Luciano is a man no one dares to cross-the ruthless new king of the Vercasetti Mafia, feared across Italy. Cold, calculating, untouchable. A man without weaknesses. Except for her. For years, he has watched her from the shadows. Studied her. Wanted her. Has been hers. And now, he is done waiting. When fate-or perhaps something far more dangerous-pushes Isabella into his path, she finds herself ensnared in a deadly game of obsession. Damian is relentless, his devotion terrifying in its intensity. He doesn't ask. He takes. And no matter how hard Isabella tries to resist, every glance, every whisper of his name, only pulls her deeper into the darkness that is him. But love was never meant to be easy, especially not when it belongs to a monster. And Isabella is about to learn that once the Mostro Luciano has chosen his queen... there is no escape. A slow-burn, dark mafia romance filled with intensity, secrets, and a love that blurs the line between devotion and possession.

He made the rules. I was never supposed to break them. Isabella Romano was born into bloodlines and betrayal. She was supposed to be protected. Instead, she's being married off to the one man she hates most - Lucian Moretti. Cold. Dangerous. Untouchable. He's the heir to a mafia empire, and now... her husband. Their marriage was meant to end a war. But love was never part of the deal. In a world of power, passion, and broken vows - she must survive him... or ruin him. 🖤 For fans of enemies to lovers, arranged marriage, dark romance, and morally grey men who don't play fair.

In a world ruled by blood, bullets, and betrayal, love is the most dangerous weapon of all. She was a quiet storm, hidden in the shadows, never meant to cross paths with the ruthless mafia heir. But when their worlds collide in a blaze of chaos, she's pulled into a life of darkness, where trust is rare and survival depends on how well you play the game. He's cold, calculated, and cruel to the world-but to her, he's something else entirely. Obsessive. Protective. Possessive. As secrets unravel and enemies close in, love becomes the only thing worth killing for. But will their passion save them... or destroy everything in its path?
