Safely in the Arms of the Mafia King His City
Emilio pushed the door open to his office, stepping inside with the quiet confidence of a man who owned everything within his reach. The air was thick with the scent of leather and aged whiskey, an intoxicating mix of power and indulgence. Like the rest of the club, the space was curated to his tastes, dark, sleek, and commanding. Floor-to-ceiling bookshelves lined the walls, filled with titles that weren’t just for show. A massive mahogany desk sat at the center of the room, its surface spotless except for a glass decanter, his laptop, and an ashtray that held a single cigar, untouched. The low lighting cast elongated shadows over the black leather seating, the deep tones of the room exuding a quiet dominance. Everything here was a reflection of him, unapologetically powerful, meticulously controlled, impeccably maintained. He crossed the room without a word, his movements deliberate as he reached for the decanter on the desk. The amber liquid swirled in the heavy glass as he poure

Luca gave a firm nod, understanding his orders without the need for repetition. Emilio trusted him to handle things, but there was still a weight pressing against his ribs, a tension that even whiskey couldn’t smooth out. Aurora. He still didn’t know what to do with her.She had landed in his world by accident, or at least, that’s what it looked like. Emilio didn’t take things at face value. He didn’t believe in coincidences. Not in this life. Now there had been a seed of doubt planted, one that he had to seriously consider. He had questions that only she could answer.Stepping out of the office, his sharp gaze swept the lounge, locking onto the slim figure curled up on the couch. She was asleep, her breaths slow and steady, her body sinking into the soft leather like she belonged there. For a moment, she didn’t look like a woman running for her life. She didn’t look like a woman with dangerous ties, ties that now led directly back to Vescovi. She looked innocent, trapped in a dangero

Emilio's body betrayed him the longer he held her. Aurora was soft against him, her warmth sinking into his skin, her delicate frame fitting almost too perfectly in his arms. The faint scent of vanilla and something floral clung to her hair, stirring something he hadn’t felt in longer than he could remember. A dull ache curled low in his stomach, tightening with every shaky breath she exhaled against his chest. He shifted, trying to ease the sudden tension hardening beneath his expensive slacks. He swore under his breath, annoyed with himself.Get it together. You’re acting like a teenage boy. This wasn’t him. Women were a fleeting distraction, not something he comforted through nightmares. Not something he held like they belonged tucked into his arms, but there was something about the way she trembled, the way she had whimpered that unsettled him.Was she innocent? Or was she part of some twisted plot to lure him in? The timing couldn’t be ignored. Vescovi’s men showing up at Monica

Aurora drifted awake slowly, her mind still hazy with sleep. The air smelled unfamiliar, a faint mix of leather, whiskey, and something warm and distinctly male. She felt cocooned, wrapped in a comforting heat that made her want to burrow deeper, so she did. The warmth shifted slightly, and a low groan rumbled very close to her ear.Her eyes snapped open.Panic surged through her as the realization struck, she wasn’t alone. The warmth she’d been nestled into wasn’t a blanket or a pillow, it was a person. Shawn didn't feel like this though. Her breath hitched, heart racing as she froze, suddenly hyperaware of the arm draped securely across her waist and the steady thrum of a heartbeat beneath her cheek.Oh God...Her gaze darted upward, and her stomach twisted when she recognized the man from the diner, the powerful stranger who’d swept her away after the chaos. Emilio, she finally recalled his name. He was still asleep, his features softened from their usual hardened intensity. Dark l

Aurora had always imagined heartbreak would feel like a sharp, sudden pain, like a knife to the chest, immediate and devastating. As she stood frozen in the doorway of the dimly lit apartment she had shared with Shawn for the last three years; she realized heartbreak wasn’t always so dramatic. Sometimes, it was quiet, and slow; almost a numb, creeping sensation that started at the edges of her mind and worked its way inward, wrapping around her like a vice.The sounds came first, the unmistakable rhythm of bodies moving, breathy moans that didn’t belong to her. Then, the scent of sweat and perfume, thick and suffocating, filling the space like a cruel confirmation. And finally, the sight of them, Shawn’s body hovering over another woman, his fingers gripping bare skin the same way they had gripped her just days ago. Limbs tangled as one, lost in a passionate embrace on the edge of ecstasy.Aurora’s grip on the takeout bag in her hand tightened until the paper crumpled beneath her fing

The frosty night air bit Aurora’s skin as she walked, her breath coming in shallow gasps. She hadn’t even grabbed a coat, hadn’t thought beyond the single, desperate need to get away. Her footsteps echoed against the empty sidewalks, and for the first time in years, she was completely, utterly alone.Her fingers tightened around the strap of her purse, the only thing she had taken with her. Inside, there was barely any money, just a few crumpled bills and some loose change. Her phone was clutched in her other hand, but there was no one to call. No friends, no family, just an empty list of contacts that only reminded her of how isolated she truly was.A hollow ache spread through her chest, heavier than the heartbreak itself.It wasn’t just Shawn’s betrayal that cut deep, it was the realization that he had been her entire world. Not because she had wanted it that way, but because he had made sure of it. He had kept her on a tight leash, made her believe she was too fragile, too unworth

Emilio Cordello had spent his life mastering the art of observation. It was how he had built an empire, how he had survived in a world where trust was a death sentence. He noticed everything, the flick of a wrist, the hesitation in someone’s step, the way a person carried their fear like a weight pressing into their spine.So when the diner bell jingled behind him, he didn’t need to turn around to know that someone new had entered. He caught the reflection in the glass as he slid a thick stack of bills onto the counter. A woman, young, chestnut hair spilling past her shoulders, long legs wrapped in tight jeans, her frame slim but with an unmistakable curve to her hips. That alone would have been enough to grab his attention, but it wasn’t her body that held his gaze. It was the redness around her eyes, the raw, swollen look of someone who had spent too much time crying.Emilio didn’t linger. He never did. Time was a precious commodity to him, and not one that he wasted. He gave the wa

The warmth of Monica’s Diner wrapped around Aurora like a fragile cocoon, a stark contrast to the cold uncertainty clawing at her insides. The scent of freshly brewed coffee, buttered toast, and something sweet, maybe pie lingered in the air, mixing with the faint, aged smell of the vinyl seats. The soft hum of a distant radio filled the silence, the quiet ticking of the diner’s old clock marking time she no longer knew how to measure.She curled her hands around the ceramic coffee cup the moment the waitress set it down, welcoming the heat that seeped into her chilled fingers. The adrenaline had worn off. Now, in its place, exhaustion settled in heavy, and relentless.Her limbs felt leaden, her body aching in places she hadn’t even realized were tense. It was the emotional toll that crushed her the most, the weight of betrayal sitting thick in her chest like cement. Shawn had cheated.It shouldn’t have surprised her. He had been abusively cruel for a long time, using words like weapo

Emilio stepped out of the car, coming around to open Aurora’s door himself. His presence was commanding, his movements precise, and despite her lingering shock, Aurora followed his silent direction.The underground garage was quiet except for the soft hum of a ventilation system and the occasional muffled thump of bass from upstairs. As she stepped out, the low lighting cast sharp shadows along the pristine floor, making the entire space feel like another world, and in a way it was because this is his world.A door at the far end of the garage swung open, and Luca strode in. His sharp eyes swept over Aurora briefly before locking onto Emilio, his posture straightening. “I’ve got people already looking into it,” he informed, wasting no time with pleasantries. Luca was all business, straightforward and to the point.Emilio gave a short nod, as if he had expected nothing less. “Good,” he said, his voice calm but firm. “Make sure we have answers before the night is over.”Luca didn’t ask

The low growl of the engine filled the space between them as Emilio maneuvered expertly through the dimly lit streets, his grip on the wheel firm. His thoughts were a battlefield of conflicting instincts. What the hell am I doing? Emilio’s thoughts tumbled inside his head, he didn’t play savior, but without thinking he had ensured this girl was safe.Taking her to his club felt like the only option, for now. She was in shock, rattled to her core, and he couldn’t just leave her out here, not after what she had just witnessed. He couldn’t help but question at the same time if his club was the right option either, he knew exactly what bringing her into his world meant. She doesn’t belong in it.His world was dark, ruthless. It swallowed people whole. He had spent years keeping women at a distance, making sure no one got close enough to be a weakness. And yet, here he was, bringing this fragile, terrified girl straight into the heart of his empire.She had no idea who he was. No idea what
Safely in the Arms of the Mafia King U Turn
The low growl of the powerful engine rumbled through the stillness of the night, a sound of quiet dominance that Emilio barely registered as he drove. His car was more than a machine, it was a symbol of control, of the life he had carved out for himself. The interior smelled of hand-stitched Italian leather, every detail refined to his exact specifications, every button and dial positioned perfectly.Just like everything in his world. Just like his empire.He scanned the streets as he drove, always watching, always alert. It was second nature, the habit of a man who could never afford to be caught off guard. He didn’t just see the world, he assessed it. Tonight, the city was quiet. He liked quiet nights, small breaks in the constant chaos.This part of town had a certain calmness to it, a controlled stillness that he found satisfying. It was a sharp contrast to the chaos of the lower districts, where desperation and recklessness fueled the kind of men Emilio despised. Here, everything
