The Mafia's Crazy Obsession

"I think you enjoyed at least part of your punishment last night, sweetheart." "No," I whispered, my voice barely audible, my eyes still on his hand, on his fingers as they drew small circles that made my toes curl on my exposed, sensitive skin. He moved closer to me, making a small gasp push past my lips as I looked up, our gazes colliding. "Relax. Do you know what the fun part is, Lana? It doesn't always have to be a punishment. It could be something... exciting too. Something you'll most definitely like." - To save her entire family from the Stravkos Mafia - which was the most powerful Mafia family in Tuscany, Italy - Then sixteen-year old Solana Williams agrees to take her sister's place and becomes a sacrificial lamb - becoming Abel Stravkos' wife. Theirs is just a mere marriage of convenience, but now older, wiser and twenty-three, Solana vows revenge for all they did to her family by making Abel's life a living nightmare. Abel Stravkos does not need a wife, but with his cold-hearted father handling the helm of affairs, he's helpless to object. His heart isn't tied to this strange, beautiful, vengeful woman who's been forced down his throat. But the line between love and hate is thin, and Solana's staunch disobedience to his orders fuels his need to control her in every way possible. Driven by revenge, and an undeniable passion sizzling just beneath the surface, it's only a matter of time before their attraction for each other becomes apparent, much to the dismay of his father as well as both internal and external forces trying to pull them apart. Will they ever rise above obstacles lodged in their paths and get their happily-ever-after?

Solana - Olive Branch

I couldn't break contact no matter how hard I tried. And my body's terse reaction to him wasn't helping matters. I couldn't feel the ground beneath my feet anymore. His gaze took me up in the air, dropping me back down, his eyes moving over to Helly who stood up now, wringing her fingers together.

Well, this is awkward.

His shoulders relaxed as he nodded to my sister and beamed at Frank who was busy munching the shortbread biscuits, oblivious to the tension in the air. He waved at Nico dismissively. "Thanks, man. I'll take it from here."

Nico nodded, gave a curt bow, then exited the room quietly. Abel took long strides to Helly, extending his hand for a handshake. "Nice to see you again, Helen. What brings you to New York?"

"I came here so I could be closer to my sister," Helen's voice was strained, a tinge of resentment making her words come out forcefully. If Abel noticed this, he made no comment, turning his attention to Frank.
