Odds! Wouldn't it be odd to not have something to fight against like suppose just some odds that we have to face? We can't just escape them for sure. I mean numbers can't be complete with just even series, right? Just the same way, having odds has been a normal part of anyone's life. Yeah, sometimes these can be weird too. Still, they can be overcome and many can be successful in doing that also. Alas! Some may not be able to do that. Anyway, why talk about such people who let the odds win now? First, let's meet the ones who faced some of the difficulties thrown at them wobbling on their feet. But, were they able to go on against all odds?

Chapter 1 Prologue

She stared at the three people before her with the heart beating too damn high, but still tried to maintain a serene expression on her face and just waited.

She was never good at showing patience and always been curious to know whatever is not known. And now it is nearly killing her to wait, but she knows she can't do anything other than that.

And then she heard, "Fine! Fine, I will break up with her. Happy?"

His voice reached her ears, but it took a few seconds to get it settled and she blanched but controlled herself to see two people showing their relief while he is giving a blank expression.

"How could you say that? After all this time?" she asked in a whisper but not in a shaking voice for which she is proud of right now.

"This will be for the best." He stated and the anger took the place of the shock.

"For whom?" she asked and he closed his eyes before opening them to stare at her.

"Look... you are not understanding..." he trailed off, looking at the other two people.

"Not understanding? I am a nurse! I can understand anything even regarding what is troubling a patient. So, you can try to make me understand." she persisted knowing well he never liked it when someone pushes him.

"This is my decision!" he stated and took a step near her.

"You are not alone in this to take such decision." she pointed out, taking a step herself near him.

"There can't be any relationship if one of us doesn't want it." He pointed back stepping near me.

"Fine! I don't want to be with you anymore then." Saying that she stepped to aside and started walking off ignoring the stunned expression of his.

Now, she can reach some safe place before letting the pain out and overcome it soon. It isn't like it's the first time, someone is throwing her out of their life, right?

"You're a creepy bastard." His eyes smolder me and his answering grin is nothing short of beautiful. Deadly. "Yet you hunger for me. Tell me, this appetite of yours, does it always tend toward 'creepy bastards'?" **** Widower and ex-boss to the Mafia, Zefiro Della Rocca, has an unhealthy fixation on the woman nextdoor. It began as a coincidence, growing into mere curiosity, and soon, it was an itch he couldn't ignore, like a quick fix of crack for an addict. He didn't know her name, but he knew every inch of her skin, how it flushed when she climaxed, her favourite novel and that every night she contemplated suicide. He didn't want to care, despising his rapt fascination of the woman. She was in love with her abusive husband. She was married, bound by a contract to the Bratva's hitman. She was off-limits. But when Zefiro wanted something, it was with an intensity that bordered on madness. He obsessed, possessed, owned. There'd be bloodshed if he touched her, but the sight of blood always did fascinate him. * When Susanna flees from her husband, she stumbles right into the arms of her devilishly handsome neighbour with a brooding glare. He couldn't stand her, but she needed him, if she was ever going to escape her husband who now wanted her dead. Better the devil you know than the angel you don't. She should have recalled that before hopping into Zefiro's car and letting him whisk her away to Italy. Maybe then, she wouldn't have started an affair with him. He was the only man who touched her right, and the crazy man took no small pains in ensuring he would be the last.
