[A SWEET MAFIA ROMANCE]
Nicole thought that her life would be easy now after she left behind all the memories of an awful night, which led to an unexpected tribulation in her life. She moved into a new city trying to forget the inexplicable incident that happened with her. Little did she know that she can never escape from it because the devil will always find her. No matter how hard she tries to get away from him.
He was meant to be her medicine but he turned out to be a Slow Poison.
-------------------------------------
I hear his hoarse voice bringing me back from the daze as he growls in between the kisses. "You have no idea how dangerous it can be..." He says with his lips going down to the area just above my breast, he sucks in desperately, squeezing my ass gently, making me whimper in bliss. I clutch to his shirt, trying to hold my body from collapsing.
"Careful...You are messing with the devil, Cole." He doesn't let me breathe for a minute as he starts attacking me with his open-mouthed kisses all the way back. Rapture succumbs me as I feel his lips again on my neck, traveling higher. I breathe heavily, unable to maintain my composure while being acquainted with this unfamiliar sensation. His lips reach my ear as he gently nibbles my earlobe.
"You know why people call me the devil?" His breath fanning over my ear. "It's not because I am a sinner."
His harsh breath comes out in pants, showing me how equally he is affected as he continues. "It's because I am capable of making innocent people commit sins."

My breath hitched as Jayce's hand wrapped around my throat, his touch firm but not tight, just enough to send a pulse of heat through my veins. He leaned in close, his body a wall of heat, his dark eyes burning into mine with a fury I couldn't look away from. "You keep pushing me, Ford," he growled, his voice low and rough, vibrating through me. "One of us is going to snap." I forced myself to meet his gaze, smirking even as my pulse quickened, trying to ignore the way his hand made everything feel too close. "Maybe I'm not the one who should be careful." His thumb brushed my skin, sending a shiver down my spine, and I could feel his restraint slipping, his focus flickering to my lips. I held my breath, my body thrumming with anticipation. "Careful," he murmured, his voice low and deadly, sending a warning I could practically taste. "I don't stop once I start." I lifted my chin slightly, locking my eyes with his. "Then don't." _ _ _ Zoe Ford, the sharp-tongued daughter of LA's top police chief, has always lived under the weight of her family's legacy.

The seduction dripped off of her tongue, just like I desired to be, her low voice entrancing me with the dangerously sadistic melodies of a siren song, with the most terribly sinful lyrics. "I could kill you right now, Angel." She inched closer towards me. "Right here," she said, her eyes raking over my body, sizing me up, slowly. The lustful grey in them soon lifted back up, intimidating mine. Her harsh words screamed murderous intent, but the look in her eyes whispered a different kind of sin. I couldn't tell whether my breath hitched at her cruel threat, or the yearning pulse between my... She interrupted my stream of consciousness, poisoning it with every still second, keeping her gaze on mine as her depraved hand reached out to caress the bruised side of my neck. "But I have something else in mind." ──────────────────── No one ever says it out loud. What she really is. Dangerous. Heartless. Merciless. A murderer. Everyone knows it. And now, she's in control. There's only so many people who kill their way to the top and get away with it. But there are things far more dangerous than power. Things not only worth killing for, but dying for. Seduction. Obsession. Love? Angeline Kelleher, her new secretary, seems to be the only one reckless enough to question her. To stand too close. To look too long. Unfortunately for Angeline, sin itself was designed to allure. Some urges were never meant to be denied, and resisting the sexual temptation of the devil is not an easy sport. But resisting falling in love may be even harder, especially with someone she wasn't sure was even capable of such a feeling... Hopefully 𝑡ℎ𝑖𝑠 angel doesn't fall and break her wings.
