Dorathy's Muse (a true mafia lovestory)

As a rising star in criminal law, Sophia Peterson built her career on keeping dangerous men behind bars. Cold, calculating, and brilliant in the courtroom, she was known as the woman who never lost a case. Until she met Damian De Luca-the ruthless, untouchable Mafia king who turned her world upside down. It started as a job-defending a man everyone feared. But the deeper Sophia dug into his empire, the more she realized she was playing a game she couldn't win. Damian wasn't just a client. He was a force of nature-dark, possessive, and unrelenting. He seduced her with his power, ensnared her with his words, and made her question everything she stood for. She tried to run. But no one runs from Damian De Luca. Now, standing in her temporary apartment in Germany, staring into the obsidian eyes of the man she thought she left behind, Sophia knows she's trapped. His presence is suffocating, his touch electric. The knife she reached for was pointless-he had already won this battle before she even picked a side. "You really thought I wouldn't find you, angel?" His whisper is both a threat and a promise. "Never underestimate my love for you." The kiss that follows is bruising, possessive, and filled with every dark promise he ever made. He isn't just here to reclaim her. He's here to remind her of a terrifying truth- She was never meant to escape. And maybe, deep down, she never wanted to.

"You're a creepy bastard." His eyes smolder me and his answering grin is nothing short of beautiful. Deadly. "Yet you hunger for me. Tell me, this appetite of yours, does it always tend toward 'creepy bastards'?" **** Widower and ex-boss to the Mafia, Zefiro Della Rocca, has an unhealthy fixation on the woman nextdoor. It began as a coincidence, growing into mere curiosity, and soon, it was an itch he couldn't ignore, like a quick fix of crack for an addict. He didn't know her name, but he knew every inch of her skin, how it flushed when she climaxed, her favourite novel and that every night she contemplated suicide. He didn't want to care, despising his rapt fascination of the woman. She was in love with her abusive husband. She was married, bound by a contract to the Bratva's hitman. She was off-limits. But when Zefiro wanted something, it was with an intensity that bordered on madness. He obsessed, possessed, owned.

He couldn't stand her, but she needed him, if she was ever going to escape her husband who now wanted her dead. Better the devil you know than the angel you don't. She should have recalled that before hopping into Zefiro's car and letting him whisk her away to Italy. Maybe then, she wouldn't have started an affair with him. He was the only man who touched her right, and the crazy man took no small pains in ensuring he would be the last.
