Gangster Love Chapter 1 The Unlikely Encounter

The city streets were always alive with energy, but at night, they transformed into a different beast altogether. The neon lights of the bars and clubs reflected off the wet pavement, casting a colorful glow over the crowded sidewalks. It was a place where dreams were made and broken, where the lost and the lonely came to find themselves. In the midst of this vibrant chaos, a figure emerged from the shadows. His name was Marcus "Marky" Thompson, a notorious gangster with a reputation for being ruthless and feared.

His broad shoulders and chiseled features seemed chiseled from granite, and his piercing blue eyes seemed to bore into those he met. Marky navigated the crowded streets with ease, his eyes scanning the rooftops and alleys for any signs of trouble. He was a man on a mission, always on the lookout for the next score, the next deal, or the next conquest. As he turned a corner, he spotted a small, quaint bookstore nestled between a tattoo parlor and a dive bar. The sign above the door read "Moonlit Pages," and the windows were filled with stacks of dusty old books and vintage typewriters. Marky raised an eyebrow, intrigued by the unusual sight. He pushed open the door, and a bell above it rang out, announcing his arrival. The store was dimly lit, with soft jazz music playing in the background. The air was thick with the scent of old books and coffee. Marky's eyes adjusted slowly, and he spotted a figure sitting behind the counter, surrounded by stacks of books and papers. She looked up, and their eyes met. Marky's world stopped. The girl was stunning, with porcelain skin, raven-black hair, and piercing green eyes that seemed to sparkle with mischief. She smiled, and Marky's heart skipped a beat. "Welcome to Moonlit Pages," she said, her voice husky and confident. "Can I help you find something?" Marky's usual smooth demeanor deserted him. He stuttered, feeling like a schoolboy caught in the act. "I...I was just looking for a book," he stammered. The girl raised an eyebrow, a hint of amusement dancing in her eyes. "Ah, a book, huh? Well, we have plenty of those. What kind of book are you looking for?" Marky's mind went blank. He couldn't remember the last time he'd read a book, let alone what kind of book he'd be interested in. The girl laughed, a throaty sound that sent shivers down Marky's spine. "Don't worry, I'll help you find something. What's your name?" Marky hesitated, unsure if he should reveal his true identity. But there was something about this girl that put him at ease. "I'm Marky," he said, his voice a little softer than usual. The girl's eyes sparkled with interest. "Nice to meet you, Marky. I'm Sophia." As they shook hands, Marky felt a jolt of electricity run through his body. He knew, in that moment, that his life was about to change in ways he couldn't even imagine.

"And I want him to see what he lost." ••••*••••*••••* Meadow Russell was supposed to get married to the love of her life in Vegas. Instead, she walked in on her twin sister riding her fiance. One drink at the bar turned to ten. One drunken mistake turned into reality. And one stranger's offer turned into a contract that she signed with shaking hands and a diamond ring. Alaric Ashford is the devil in a tailored Tom Ford suit. Billionaire CEO, brutal, possessive. A man born into an empire of blood and steel. He also suffers from a neurological condition-he can't feel. Not objects, not pain, not even human touch. Until Meadow touches him, and he feels everything. And now he owns her. On paper and in his bed. She wants him to ruin her. Take what no one else could have. He wants control, obedience... revenge. But what starts as a transaction slowly turns into something Meadow never saw coming. Obsession, secrets that were never meant to surface, and a pain from the past that threatens to break everything. Alaric doesn't share what's his. Not his company. Not his wife. And definitely not his vengeance.
