"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?"

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 walked out of my bathroom, drying my hair with a warm towel, and was met with dark red roses, no not just dark red, ‘burgundy’ roses. My heart sped up as I thought about them being from Julian. The color was too specific to be from anyone else. A part of me wondered if Julian has sent them to me to claim the rose situation for himself, but maybe I was reading too far into it.


I rushed to hang my wet towel up on a towel rack and hurried over to touch the roses’ soft petals. I leaned down and breathed in their fresh scent, humming in pleasure at the sweet fragrance. I pulled away to search the luscious bouquet for a card, wondering if there was one.
