"I still feel like you've seen the man who shot my guy in the club before. One day you'll tell me," Julian grabbed the glass to fill it again, gesturing towards me with it in his hand.

Oh... here we go again. I sighed and crossed my arms, "And if I don't?"

He downed the glass and smirked before softly laughing in a deep tone, "Then you seem to have lost the will to run already, bella."

Julian has unexpectedly become the next Mafia boss of his late father's organization and just captured his next submissive, a cocktail waitress named Vivian. However, when his underboss is shot, he wonders if she is a rat planted to end his reign.

Now, they're trying to solve who committed the crime and who keeps sending Vivian roses, while trying to make their relationship work. Will Vivian be able to trust Julian enough to grant her submission to him, or will they wither like a dying rose?

Captured by a Mafia Boss

I found Julian in his gym doing pull ups on a bar. His feet were crossed behind him and his back muscles and arms flexed with each pullup. Scars spanned across his back, from thick lines to circles the shape of the cherried end of a cigar. Another scar ran up and towards his right shoulder like a bullet had grazed his skin and missed either on accident or on purpose, I wasn’t sure which. A shiver ran through me at the sight of them as my heart broke, but I pushed the feeling away. I chose to focus on the way his dress pants contoured to his a*s and showed it off, as he pulled his own weight up and down with bursts of breaths and slow calculated movements.


I leaned against the wall with my arms crossed over my chest and smirked at him, “Is this how you work out your aggression and frustration?”


He dropped down from the bar with a grunt and nodded, peering over at me with a soft smirk and filled with confidence, “Better than on people.”
