bourbon

Ever since my adoptive father, the Don of the Moretti family, told me I was not his biological daughter but the orphan of his late arch-nemesis, the man I had called my brother, Dante, the family's ruthless Underboss, had built a wall of ice around me. His coldness was a physical weight, threatening to suffocate me. Just as I was preparing to flee Chicago and disappear from his world forever, I stumbled upon a secret ledger in his study's safe. It held no numbers, only a chronicle of his mad obsession with me: "Fuck. Ever since her 18th birthday, the way she looks at me is different. She's not a girl anymore. That body, that new confidence... it's like a shot of aged bourbon—hot, sharp, and addictive. I'm hanging on by a thread." "At dinner tonight, I almost dragged her out of her seat and kissed her senseless in front of everyone." "The way she handled that gun at the range... all I could think about was pinning her to that table and fucking her senseless from behind." "If she looks at me with those innocent eyes and calls me 'Dante' one more time, I swear to God I'll breed her on the table at the next family meeting, right in front of every last Capo." I returned the ledger to its place. That night, I let my long hair fall loose, wore nothing but one of his custom black shirts, and strode into his bedroom. "I am your master, Dante. Now, pleasure me."

As time goes, people grow up and move on. I have to leave everyone and everything behind, even him. But, he isn't going to make it easy on me either. Will I have to let him go and pursue his dreams or will he stay trapped in the small town waiting on me to return?

At the funeral of the former King of Greece, Nicholas II, some members of the Spanish Royal Family met a girl, who wanted to study International Relations in Spain and become a diplomat.

When Queen Mother Sonia heard about it, she decided to hire her as an assistant for her granddaughter, Princess Lycia of Asturias.

Mia Russo thought the worst night of her life was watching her father die. She was wrong. The worst night is standing on an auction stage in a red dress, being sold like property to the highest bidder. Her father was the most feared Don in the criminal world. Now he is dead, and she is the price someone is collecting. Just as a greasy old man opens his mouth to claim her, a single bid silences the room. A number so large the auctioneer's hands shake. Mia never sees the man's face. Only his eyes. Dark. Calm. Familiar in a way that makes her stomach drop. The man who buys her is Dante Reyes. The new Godfather. The most powerful criminal in the country. And the same boy her father pulled from the streets twelve years ago and raised like a son. He is no longer that boy. He is cold. Controlled. And he wants something from Mia that goes far beyond ownership. As the walls of his mansion close around her, Mia begins to see the truth. Dante did not buy her to save her. He bought her because she is the last piece of a plan years in the making. A plan that started the night her father was murdered. A plan Dante may have helped write. The girl who walked into his house as a prisoner must decide. Break under his control, or burn the whole empire down from the inside.

"Unbound Boundary" refers to the conventional boundaries between the game world and reality that are unbound. It can also refer to the boundaries within the players themselves that they can surpass and exceed beyond what they previously knew. In a broader context, "Unbound Boundary" can be interpreted as liberation from the limitations that hinder us in life and exploring uncharted territories.

Every human being is born bound to a spirit. It is a system set up by the gods to prevent genocide. Most humans are bound to a low level spirit, like a fairy or a ghost or a sprite. Some humans are bound to stronger spirits, like angels, or reapers, or elementals, or demons, however getting bound to a demon is rare. When a human turns 12, they perform a test that reveals a human’s spirit. Most get low-level spirits, some get elementals, however, that is not the case for our protagonist. Emery Stone was the only spirit-less being in a world where your existence is determined solely on how strong your spirit is. Now, 5 years later, she is disowned by her human parents and adopted by a powerful forest guardian, attending a low-class high school with only one friend, wanting only to live a peaceful life, only for a powerful demon spirit to appear out of nowhere one day claiming to be her Bound Spirit?! How dare he!

Eternal darkness She was in eternal darkness, there was no light, no air, no nothing. And yet she was living, or perhaps she was long dead. But her conscious never faded. Perhaps she, herself, was eternal. The world has long forgotten her. She bore the name Kira, but it was lost in the tides of time. This infinite space of darkness was her dwelling, but she wasn't there of her own accord. She was bounded there, by countless curses. She was beyond help, and yet she craves for it, she craves salvation. Perhaps, it was hypocritical for her to pray for help, to beg for it. But after spending centuries, she couldn't bear it anymore. "Someone save me," Her voice didn't travel through the empty space of purgatory. But it reached someone, someone deep in sleep in a coffin.
