QueenFrieza

Excerpt: 
His lips left her neck only long enough to say, “If the invisible scars he left don't disappear now, I'll keep trying again and again until they do. Soon your body will know only me.” 

Her eyes were still swollen from her previous tears, but they began to water again for a far different reason than before. She tried to pull away and hide her face from him. 

“Promise me,” she uttered. “Promise me I'll never be in the same room as him ever again.” 

His fist clenched and he had to control his anger. 

Quieter than before he whispered, “I promise.”

How I Became The Alpha Mafia Boss' Target

If New Vista was a medieval kingdom, it was certain that, with Vince no longer there, Luca would be the king.

Luca made her feel like a queen for her birthday.

They walked through the door of the jeweler and Sophia was instantly whisked away to a back room where she was sat in a comfortable chair and offered champagne.
