Forbidden Temptation By Mafia Fiance Alpha Father

**"Leave me alone! Please, just let me go!"** My voice cracked as I thrashed in his iron grip, but it was useless. He scooped me up effortlessly, his hold unyielding, carrying me off to a fate I couldn’t escape. This can’t be happening. Not now. Not like this. "I don’t want this," I whispered, my voice raw with terror. "Please… just let me go." My pleas barely reached his ears, or if they did, he didn’t care. His silence was louder than any threat, his indifference a dagger to my chest. A heartbeat later, my body hit the softness of a king-sized bed, but there was no comfort in it. My tears had nearly dried, leaving only silent sobs wracking my frame. I forced myself to speak, desperation lacing every syllable. "Luciano, please," I choked out. "If I’ve wronged you in any way, I’m sorry. But don’t punish me like this." A deafening crack split the air, and before I could react, fire exploded across my cheek. The force of the slap sent my head whipping to the side, my skin stinging from the brutal contact. The room pulsed with danger. **"No one calls me by my name,"** he growled, his voice like crushed glass—sharp, merciless. **"And no one tells me what to do."** His fingers curled under my chin, forcing me to meet his gaze. Cold, dark, and bottomless, his eyes held no mercy, no hesitation. "You will warm my bed," he murmured, his voice dangerously soft, laced with cruel intent. "You will satisfy my every craving, no matter how disastrous, no matter how dark." A wicked smirk ghosted over his lips, his grip tightening. "Because you are mine to break. And no one stops me." He leaned in, his breath fanning against my trembling lips. "Now… come here." --- Story by white pheonix

My 19th birthday was supposed to be perfect. Instead, it became the day my world fell apart. Picture this: Me, walking in on my boyfriend Darian tangled up with Scarlet, my so-called best friend. Talk about a birthday surprise, right? Heartbroken and furious, I ran into the woods, desperate to escape. That's when things got really strange. It was time for my werewolf transformation, but something went terribly wrong. Pain ripped through me as I got stuck halfway between human and wolf. There I was, alone and scared, thinking this was how I'd die. But then he showed up. A massive gray wolf with eyes that seemed to look right into my soul. I couldn't believe it. Niko Kaine Silverbane, the Alpha King in the flesh. Kaine helped me complete my shift, but that was just the beginning. Something sparked between us, a connection I couldn't explain. It was electric, intense, and a little bit terrifying. Next thing I know, I'm trying to save my ex friend, enrolled at Banes Academy, surrounded by other young werewolves. That's where I learned the truth: Kaine and I are destined mates. Me, the orphan girl, fated to be with the most powerful Alpha in the country. It sounds like a fairy tale, right? Wrong. Turns out, being the Alpha King's mate comes with a target on your back. Enemies are everywhere, including faces I once trusted. And Kaine? He's got secrets darker than a moonless night. Now I'm racing against time to master my newfound powers and stand beside Kaine against the forces trying to tear us apart. But as the danger grows, so do my feelings for him. Will I find the strength to become the Alpha Luna I'm meant to be? Or will the darkness consume us both?

"I time-traveled, and so did my dad," Li Ping'an had already arranged everything. He had set up a solid family business for his father in the mundane world and taken care of the relationship to enter the immortal sect. Then, he was determined to tread the path of immortality, to seize his chance at becoming an immortal. But he had never imagined that on the day he attended the talent testing in the mundane world, everything would change...

After six years of marriage, Aziza Zara Ali finally became a mother. But she wasn't sure which surname to give the child: Ayman, Tariq or just Fahad. And little does she know that soon after her world is shattered, she will meet the third son of the family she dreaded the most, Omar Fahad.

"Embrace your dark side, just like me. Make those who hurt you suffer. Become my Dark Luna and moan beneath me every night.... That's what I want from you" He said in a commanding tone.. **** Elara Lunaris is an omega cursed by the Moon Goddess herself—born with dark powers and burdened with a prophecy that says she will either save the world or be the destruction itself. Branded as the Cursed Dark Omega, she is shunned by her own pack, despite being the daughter of its rulers. Scorned by her parents and despised by her people, she lives a life of an outcast, haunted by a fate she never chose. Her life takes an even darker turn with the rise of the Forsaken *twisted, cursed wolves consumed by darkness and rage,* threatening to tear apart the fragile balance between the packs. When the Forsaken attack her home, the ruthless Lycan King and Supreme Alpha, Kael Vyrean, steps in. Feared across the realm as the Demon Werewolf, Kael offers protection—but at a cost. He claims Elara as his fated mate and demands she become his Luna. For Kael, their bond isn’t about love. He wants her for reasons far more dangerous than anyone realizes. Her resistance and protests means nothing. Her parents, eager to be rid of their cursed daughter, hand her over without hesitation. Forced into the arms of a demon Lycan werewolf, a soulless being carved from death itself, one who possess demonic powers and kills without blinking. A man who screams evil, deadly and powerful in every way. Will she learn from him and become a dark soul herself? Will she save her pack from the impending doom of the Forsaken? No!! One thing is certain—she won’t lift a finger to save the very people who caused her relentless pain and humiliation. The fate of the world rests in her hands. To save it… or to let it crumble. They expect her to submit, to bow like she always did. To be their salvation. To become their obedient saviour. The same people who scorned her, who called her cursed and evil, now beg for her mercy, hoping she will wield the Moon Goddess’s dark power to protect them. How hypocritical!. But guess what? She doesn’t. She doesn’t kneel. She doesn’t obey. Instead, she embraces the darkness, her dark and evil side, shatters their expectations, and becomes the monster they should have never dared to create. *** "I'll only agree to be mated to a man who can fuck—one who's extremely good in bed." Kael growled, his fangs grazing her throat as he pressed her against the bed. The weight and heat of his body making her shudder. "Those were your exact words." His hand trailed lower, fingers teasing her heat. Without giving her what she wanted. "So be a good girl and spread your legs for me… so I can prove how worthy of a mate I am and how lucky you are to have a mate like me..." His voice was hoarse and commanding. *** Note: There's smut/mature content sprinkled throughout this novel, so if you're up for it, grab your popcorn and dive in!!!

And what happens when he discovers that Poppy, who he’d thought was nothing but a caregiver, is one way or another related to the mafia? A group of humans who he despised with every fiber in him?  ********* [The cover isn’t mine, credits to the owner]
