His magnificently beautiful eyes looked into mine with possessiveness. I exhaled out a shuddered breath, and he grabbed my jaw. “This is not who you are to me, Isabella. And I want more than what we have. Understood?” The dominance in his tone was obvious, while his words sounded like a fantasy I’ve always dreamt of. More than what we have. More than step-brother. ______________________________ I, a 19-year-old girl, had always had a secret crush on someone I shouldn’t have. That’s right—it was none other than Achilles Roman, my stepbrother, who was two years older than me. I had kept my feelings dumped in a Tupperware box for as long as I could remember. But how could I control myself when he himself started making moves on me? And what should I do when I realize that he was nowhere near the Achilles I thought I knew? Read to find out.

Andrew Valencian, eleven years after the incidents of “Owned By The Mafia Boss” is all grown up and now the embodiment of all that’s right and wrong with the rich. One thing about him is clear—he doesn’t, and will never believe that love is anything good. “So one day you wake up and now you can’t live without a person who can’t give a fuck about you, and now you’re caught up in a toxic cycle of depending on them—and you people make it seem all roses?” Who would want another to control how you feel about your life? If you feel happiness, sadness or anything at all? At least not him. So when his mother, Scarlet Walker–Valencian arranged for a woman to help him with his lack of faith in love, he wasn’t at the top of the world. But he did see one thing—an opportunity. An opportunity that would change his life forever.

His dark eyes stared into mine with no emotions at all. “Xav—” “Shut up!” I flinched and let out a shuddered breath. He came closer and took a hold of my neck as if trying to choke me or something. I stared at him and breathed heavily. “Just shut up.” I looked down and closed my eyes. “I own you.” His words resounded in the room. They were like torture to me and I couldn’t escape. I was trapped with him and there was no way out. ______________________ Join me on the roller coaster ride of love and hate, following Xavier Valencian -- a handsome, yet devilish mafia boss and his new interest -- Scarlett Walker. What happens when Scar's dad sells her to the mafia boss for three million dollars? Can she buy her back & save her life, or will she be always a prisoner to his little tricks? [Updated regularly.
