Anateya Berretta had her entire life mapped out. Get good grades, get her MBA, and take over her papi's security company as his sole heir. However, papi messed up and now she was a bargaining chip held hostage by New York's No. 1 Mafia Lord. It certainly didn't help that she'd met the man before, and yearned for him like no other. Romero Bartolone was at the peak of his rule when he lost his favorite casino in an organized attack. Now he was out one billion, with countless elitists jonesing for the returns on their backdoor investment. She was only supposed to be a hostage, but he couldn't stay away from the alluring light inside her that called to his darkness. First things first, a debt was owed-- and if someone had to pay-- why not her? Besides, she was entangled in the game of the underground now, and he was the only monster who could keep her safe. Still, with dangers lurking all around, they remain vulnerable in the most high-stakes game of all, the game of hearts. And he'd burn the world... so as long as he didn't lose. [Nb: This is a dark romance book intended for mature audiences. Reader's discretion is advised.] No. of Chapters To Be Released: ~50

An Unexpected Acquaintance
She bounced her feet, doing a silly jig while she waited for her father to pick up the call. The phone was pressed to her ear as she paced her apartment, reading the letter over and over again.“Yes, Anateya?” A warm voice answered.“I got in papi! I got into Columbia!” She squealed, clutching the letter like a lifeline, “They said my application was one of the most impressive they have seen this year.” Her Italian accent thickened as her excitement grew. “Oh, I can’t wait!” She was one step closer to that MBA and joining her papi’s company.A chuckle sounded on the other end, “Take a deep breath, Ana. You know how you can get... I’m so proud of you. Your mama must be smiling down at you from heaven.”Anateya’s throat burned at the memory of her mom, taken too soon from them. When they found out, it was too late for chemo and only had time to say goodbye. “I miss her so much, papi. I wish she could be here to see this.” Anateya sat on the edge of her bed, looking out through the flo

Signed, Sealed, Traded.
Anateya felt like there were cinder blocks tied to her feet as she dragged herself back to her dorm room. She dressed in a cheerful smile every day, laughed when she was supposed to and blended in like any other typical college freshman. On the inside, she felt dull. The sun didn’t shine like it used to. The food tasted bland and more and more she preferred solitude more than anything else. She never saw her mystery man again after that night–not for lack of trying. Lafel had made good on his promise if she had defied him and she lost the little freedom that she had. She’d snuck out of her apartment a few times to go back to Club Eleven, hoping to see him there, but they wouldn’t let her in. Her papi had made sure she was banned from the premises. Whoever he was, Anateya couldn’t get him out of her head. He consumed her dreams and every waking moment. Could one kiss be so powerful? It couldn’t. He was a total stranger, and yet the thought of never seeing him again, never feeling his

One Cage, For Another
The powers that be had a real twisted sense of humor. Anateya stared, her eyes blinking in disbelief. This was not happening. She was dreaming, and would wake up any second now. Any second now. To her dismay, there was no waking up from this very real nightmare. He was dressed as impeccably as he did that night, this time in a navy-colored suit, his dark silk tie popping against his powder blue shirt. Not a strand of his hair was out of place, and his silver eyes were void of emotion. They were like an abyss of nothingness that threatened to destroy her. Memories assaulted her mind, making her feel even more confused. This couldn’t be the same man that had ignited her with his touch. “Have a seat.” His regard of her was that of boredom, as if he had a million other things to do and couldn’t be bothered with her. If that was the case, why did he take her captive anyway? Not that she wanted him to pay attention to her–the last thing she needed was to capture the attention of a Ma

Wicked Wounds
Louisa had taken Anateya to a large bedroom in the second floor's left corner. It matched the running theme of the parts of the house she’d seen so far, minimal and void of any personal touches to suggest this was a beloved home. The most stunning part of the room was the large king-sized bed in the center. It was wide and inviting, and the mental fatigue bore down on her to the point where she wanted to crawl under the thick blankets and forget the world. Romero. That was his name, right? The Mafia Lord who had ruined her with a kiss. She could hardly even call it that- what he did was pure and utter possession of every fiber of her being. Anateya hated how she ached to feel that again. A loud thud broke her train of thought, her eyes darting to the hardwood floor where Louisa had dropped her suitcase. “This your room,” The woman’s Romanian accent was thick. “If you try to escape, we break kneecaps.” Anateya scoffed, “Is that your answer for everything? To break some part of

Hearts Held Hostage (Pt. 1)
Except for bringing her meals, no one bothered her after that. Not that she cared. Anateya was still in a daze from the man she desired carving her up like a Thanksgiving turkey. Three days later, as she sat before the mirror to apply makeup, she could recall how torn up she was inside– a blubbering mess as she told Diana what happened. Diana had let her sob for a while before bringing her back to reality. “Come on, Ana. You’re stronger than this. You have to hold on until your dad comes back. You have to do whatever it takes to survive.”Afterward, Anateya wiped her tears, pulled herself together, and tended to her wounds. Despite her best efforts, it still got infected.She could feel the fever creeping up while she patted down her foundation. Her eyes were hollow from lack of sleep but held a small glimmer of excitement. Romero had insisted that she join him for dinner tonight. And she was determined to show him that she was fine. She would stay and pick at the food for a respe

Hearts Held Hostage (Pt. 2)
Romero felt a twinge in his chest as Anateya faded into unconsciousness. He wasn’t that rough with her, was he? Placing the back of his hand on her forehead, he hissed out a string of Romanian curses. She was burning up. Which could only mean that the mark he gave her wasn’t healing well. The little liar.He caught her up in his arms, walking briskly back to her room. She curled into his chest, and he scoffed. “I swear petarda…if this is all an act, I’ll turn that ass of yours crimson.”Such pride. Anateya would rather be sick than ask him for help. He should let her suffer out of spite, but he didn’t like the unease in his chest at the sight of her shivering body.”Louisa, get the doctor over here now!” He bellowed, stomping up the stairs. He laid her carefully on the bed, belly down, and pulled a switchblade from his pocket. He sliced through the woolen fabric, revealing a bandage with red and yellow splotches. He took his time peeling it back, grimacing at the sight. He would’ve c

Anywhere But Here (Pt. 1)
Anateya’s face burned with humiliation as she returned to the house. She called him every foul word she could think of as she stomped up the stairs to her room. Grabbing her phone, she dialed Diana. Be anywhere but here? Yeah. She could do that. If she could run circles around her papi’s highly trained security detail, then she would make light work of his men.They threatened to break her kneecaps, but she had a feeling that they wouldn’t touch a hair on her head and risk Romero’s wrath.Because anyone with a pair of 20/20’s could see that he wanted her. He was just being a stubborn mule.”Hello?”"Hey D. It’s me." She held the phone to her ear using her shoulder as she put on her combat boots."Ana? Girl!- I thought something bad happened to you." "You have no idea. We can talk about it later. Right now, I’m breaking out of this joint.”“Ana,” Diana said slowly. “What happened? You know you have to stay for your dad. That was the deal, remember?””Well, Romero said I should be anyw

Anywhere But Here (Pt. 2)
Romero stuffed the remaining body parts into the hole he dug and chucked at the dirt to cover them up. His nostrils flared and he ground his teeth so hard his jaw ached. It took everything inside him not to tear her clothes away and take her in the dirt like the animal he was. Make no mistake, he was an animal. However, this exotic creature that plagued his mind made him want to wait. Maybe he was a sadist, for why else would he want to prolong the torture? His balls were as blue as a dead man’s lips. She wouldn’t have resisted him if he decided to fuck her. Anateya did little to conceal her desire for him.Shameless little temptress.He’d never admit it, but her declaration that she knew his touch thrilled him. Soon, he would burn his imprint into her skin and mark her as his in every way imaginable. Something bothered him, though. She barely reacted to him burying body parts in the garden. Was she so enthralled that she was willing to overlook that he was a cold killer?Girls he

Limits of Liberation (Pt. 1)
Anateya kept her gaze straight ahead, not daring to glance at the dark storm roiling in the driver’s seat of the car. She’d really done it this time. He was gonna kill her and dump her body over the edge of a cliff. Why else would he be driving the opposite direction of ‘home’ a zillion miles an hour through Palisades?He drove in silence, the steering wheel groaning under his tight hold as he swerved left, and right then finally stopped. Gripping the strap of her seat belt, she blew hair from her face and gave him a pointed look. “Get out.” Was all he said, leaning across to open the door.Standing on wobbly legs, Anateya looked around. He’d drove them out to the middle of nowhere and there was definitely a cliff. A cold wind rushed over her skin, goosebumps rising to the surface.”If you’re going to kill me, just do it and be done. No need to go through all this trouble.”Romero came around the side and grabbed her arm, “Kill you? That would be too easy.” He dragged her to the hoo
