Illios_Grandé
Earth prayed for a savior. It got Zane Walker. Now it's too late to pray for something else. Portals tore open the sky like glowing wounds. Geminis, nightmarish things given form emerged from them with monstrous grace. How was humanity supposed to defend itself? That was now their problem. He was too busy plotting a murder to notice his perfect plan was about to fall apart. Weak and powerless, he should have been the first to die when the apocalypse struck. Instead, they named him the "Twentieth Heir to the Dark Throne." He didn't want some useless seat that came at the cost of his eyes. No. He wanted his plan back. But what does it mean to be an Heir? It's quite simple. You're enemy of all and allied to none.

Bloodstained Vows

In the shadowed underbelly of New York City, two once-innocent hearts are forged anew in betrayal and bloodshed. Elena Rossi was the untouchable princess of the second-largest mafia family—pampered, protected, and promised a life without stains. Until the night her father is gunned down, shattering her world and leaving her clan teetering on collapse. Her only salvation lies with the man she once loved and now despises: Luca Moretti, the ruthless boss of the rival Moretti empire. The boy who stole her first kiss under summer stars has returned from five years abroad as a cold, lethal predator—scarred, unforgiving, and more powerful than ever. Desperate for revenge and survival, Elena swallows her pride and begs for his alliance. Luca agrees... but his price is cruel and intimate. She must become his mistress—body, nights, and secrets surrendered completely. Every touch reignites old flames; every argument ends in bruising passion. As they hunt her father's killers together, buried truths surface: the assassination was no simple power grab, but a deeper conspiracy that threatens both empires. Hatred twists into obsession. Revenge becomes redemption. And the line between enemy and lover blurs until it shatters entirely. In a world where trust is a luxury and love is a weapon, Elena and Luca must decide: will they burn everything down for vengeance... or build something unbreakable from the ashes? A steamy, second-chance enemies-to-lovers mafia romance packed with face-slapping tension, slow-burn fire, weak-to-strong heroine growth, dark secrets, and a love that could destroy them both.
