Stacy Moretti

One dark and rainy night, I ran away from the house where I lived. It was a bad place. My heart was broken, and I was so hungry. I didn’t know where to go. I just walked and walked until I saw big gates. It was the Marchesi villa, the house of the scariest people in Italy. I thought it was the end for me, but something good happened. Alessandro Marchesi, the big boss of the mafia, let me stay. He didn’t want me there, but he let me stay. At first, I was scared. But slowly, I started to feel better. The Marchesi family took care of me, and I wasn’t hungry anymore. I learned something terrible—my mommy and daddy were killed by a bad group called the Moretti Clan. They were the enemies of the Marchesi family. I didn’t know that, but now I did. That made me special, but also in danger. One day, someone in the Marchesi family betrayed them. It made a lot of people hurt. I didn’t know who to trust, and it scared me. I wanted to hide from all the fighting. But something inside me started to change. I became stronger, even though I was just a little girl. Then, Isabella Marchesi, the nice daughter of the family, got taken by the Morettis. The Marchesi family wanted to fight to get her back. They wanted revenge. I didn’t know what to do. Should I stay safe with my new family, or should I fight with them? I chose to fight because they were my family now. The fighting got worse. People were hurt, and everyone was angry. But something even bigger happened. I found out that my connection to the Marchesi family was much deeper than anyone thought. Then, something horrible happened. Alessandro found something in my things that made him think I was working with the Morettis. He didn’t trust me anymore, and I was so scared. I didn’t know what to do. Was I part of their family, or was I a bad person? Grandpa held a gun, looking at me. I was the little girl he promised to protect, but now he wasn’t sure if he could trust me. Everything I knew could be destroyed in one moment. Did I come to the villa to escape, or was it part of a bigger plan? The truth could hurt everyone.

[WSA ENTRY 2025] [Please support] In a world where divine beings pull the strings of mortals and faith dictates the tides of destiny, Kale and his young daughter Stacy awaken to a life they never chose. Transmigrated into the ancient game of undetectable origin, they are thrust into the identities of General Joel—a fearsome war hero—and Lady Lillian, his daughter, a girl shrouded in mystery and unseen evil. Surrounded by opulent palaces, cunning emperors, and worshippers of higher beings, Kale struggles to navigate this new reality. As he inherits Joel’s memories and Stacy begins to recall Lillian’s past, the lines between creator and character, father and stranger, blur. Each memory brings pain—and answers—while the looming question of how and why they died lingers unanswered. With a system that whispers of forgotten power and abilities that defy logic, Kale must act the part of a leader revered and feared, while Stacy’s fragile innocence is tested by the darkness hidden in Lillian’s memories. Political intrigue, forgotten gods, and a prophecy tied to their survival loom on the horizon. This is a tale of survival, deception, and redemption, where even the light of paradise casts a shadow. In a realm where creation collides with destiny, can Kale protect what truly matters—or will they be swallowed by the world they were never meant to enter? “I have failed as a husband but I won't fail as a father...... Unholy is the unseen evil my body is your vessel, come forth and bring chaos to my enemies and your will, will be my Salvation.” ---

"In a world where betrayal is currency and love is a battlefield, how far would you go to protect your heart?" Lia Romano thought she had escaped the chains of her past. Once the cherished wife of Dante Moretti-Il Leone, the most ruthless billionaire in Milan-she walked away with nothing but her dignity and a secret too precious to share. Her divorce was a scandal whispered in every corner of high society, but no one knew the truth: that Lia was framed for a crime she didn't commit.

From Vittoria Conti, the venomous socialite who dreams of becoming Mrs. Moretti, to Alessandra Ricci, the jealous colleague hell-bent on Lia's downfall, enemies lurk at every corner. With scheming villains, jealous rivals, and shocking betrayals, Lia and Dante's love story is anything but simple. Torn between her past and her future, Lia must decide: Can she forgive the man who broke her heart, or will the shadows of his world consume them both? Amid fiery boardroom battles, luxurious galas, and emotional confrontations, La Rosa e il Leone is a tale of redemption, family loyalty, and a love that refuses to fade—even when the odds are stacked against it. "He called her his rose, but roses have thorns—and this time, she wouldn't let him bleed her dry." Will Dante prove himself worthy of Lia's love? Or will the scheming forces around them tear them apart forever?

Despite her initial fear, Maril’s bold and unpredictable nature captures Rhysand’s interest, leading to an unexpected and tumultuous relationship. Join The Don and his Diva to find out how their story proceeds. ---------------------------- Maril: Great, Maril. Just great. How could you be blind and not realize who you were kidnapping? It was supposed to be that scumbag, not a mafia lord. Rhysand: Excuse me! Did you just call me a scumbag? Maril: Nope. Never. I swear! Rhysand: I have to say you’ve got guts. People usually avoid me, not abduct me. This is a first. Maril: Listen, Mr. Wrong Guy, it was a mistake. A big, ridiculous, terrible mistake. How about we pretend this never happened? I untie you and you go back to your dangerous mafia life while I return to… well whatever it is I do. Rhysand: And what if I’m not interested in forgetting this ever happened? Maril: Why do you want to remember something so embarrassing? Shouldn’t you be trying to forget this pathetic incident? Rhysand: I don’t think it’s pathetic. I’d word it intriguing. After all, it’s not every day I come across someone as daring as you. Maril: Look, Mr. Mafia Lord…. Rhysand: Rhysand Moretti. Maril: Right, Mr. Moretti, this was all an accident, a confusion. I apologize for my mistake. I mean no harm, you mean no harm. Can’t we forget everything and end this amicably? Rhysand: We can. Maril: Thank …. Rhysand: But we won’t. Maril: What’s that supposed to mean? Rhysand: It means you’ve piqued my interest, lady. And in my world, it’s not something that happens often. Maril: Oh great, just what I needed in my life – another complication.

Lily Renave, a young girl of American descent living in Medan, Indonesia, finds herself living under the shadow of her family's dark past. Her father, James G. Renave, is a former government agent who once exposed a major criminal operation led by Bruno Genovese, the boss of the Genovese crime family, one of the Five Mafia Families of New York. It all began with an online relationship between James and Stacy Spark, a British woman, whose life was turned upside down when Bruno, infatuated with Stacy's photos, ordered her kidnapping. When James could not reach Stacy, he uncovered through Interpol that she had been abducted by Genovese’s men, and the crime was caught on CCTV. James tracked her across international borders, discovering she was in Mexico, heading toward the U.S. Armed with information from satellite surveillance, James managed to track Stacy’s whereabouts and intercept her, saving her from Bruno’s grip. This led to the dismantling of a large narcotics operation tied to Genovese and ultimately resulted in Bruno's imprisonment.

Opening his mouth slowly he wanted to tell his wishes but it was already too late. Joker had already snapped his neck in an instant. "Tsk on a second thought when you took action two years ago you didn't give them a chance either, right?", he said talking to the already dead body.

He then stepped over the body while on his way back home. After some distance he paused and turned around. "That is..... if some over there will take you of course", he said after thinking then continued on his way.
