Chapter 1 The Enigmatic Billionaire

Ryder Blackwood, a 28-year-old billionaire, stood at the edge of his penthouse terrace, gazing out at the glittering Manhattan skyline. His chiseled features and piercing blue eyes seemed chiseled from the same granite as the skyscrapers he owned. His tailored suit and perfectly messy hair only added to his aura of power and sophistication.

As the CEO of Blackwood Industries, Ryder had built a business empire that rivaled the greatest in the world. His name was whispered in awe by the financial elite, and his influence extended into the highest echelons of politics and society. He had amassed a fortune, but his drive didn't stem from greed; it was a quest to prove himself, to silence the doubts of his past.

Ryder's thoughts drifted back to his humble beginnings, growing up in a struggling single-parent household. His mother, a hardworking waitress, had instilled in him a determination to succeed. He had worked tirelessly, earning scholarships and building his business from the ground up. The memory of those struggles still fueled his ambition.

As he turned back into his penthouse, his eyes landed on the exquisite Emilia Santos, his executive assistant. Her raven hair cascaded down her back like a waterfall of night, and her curves seemed to defy the laws of physics. Ryder's heart quickened as she approached him, her eyes locked on his with an intensity that made his pulse race.

"Sir, your schedule for the day," she said, her voice husky and confident.

Ryder took the proffered tablet, his fingers brushing against hers. The touch sent a jolt of electricity through him, and he felt his mask of control slipping. He cleared his throat, his voice low and commanding. "Thank you, Emilia. You're as efficient as ever."

Emilia smiled, her eyes sparkling with a hint of mischief. "That's what you pay me for, sir."

Ryder's gaze lingered on her, his mind racing with the possibilities. He had always been drawn to Emilia, but he had never acted on his desires. She was his employee, and he refused to compromise his professionalism. Yet, the tension between them was palpable, a slow-burning fire waiting to ignite.

"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.
