Tatuajes Coliseo Romano

In the heart of Italy’s underworld, the Romano name was law. Alessio Romano—an enigma cloaked in tailored suits and blood-soaked silence—built his empire on fear, loyalty, and a ruthless absence of love. To him, emotions were weaknesses. Power was everything. But even kings aren't free. To seal an old alliance and satisfy his family’s demands, Alessio is forced to take a mate. Even tho he's straight he found an omega boy. A formality. A body. Someone young, untouched, and pliable. Easy to control. A boy. Noah. eighteen. Auctioned like property in an underground brothel. No past, no future—just soft eyes that refused to break, even under the gaze of monsters. Alessio didn’t choose him out of mercy. He chose him because he didn’t cower. Because something in those defiant glances stirred a hunger Alessio refuses to name. And so, they married. Not with flowers or vows. But with contracts—and handcuffs.

—¿Qué tan pervertido es el gusto de Si Ye Han? ¿Todavía me quiere así? —Al despertarse, se miró su reflejo en el espejo: peluca explosiva, tatuajes y un maquillaje demoníaco. Los ojos de cualquier persona normal arderían si la miraran por más de un segundo. Antes de su renacimiento, estaba enamorada de otro chico, así que todo lo que quería era escapar de Si Ye Han y lo odiaba hasta la médula después de que él la encerrara. Después de su renacimiento, lo veía de manera diferente, pensando que tal vez él había cambiado para mejor. En el pasado, su mente estaba confundida. Dejó ir a un marido impresionante, fue herida por un desgraciado y un traidor y, lo que es más, fue lavada del cerebro por su amigo más confiable. Al final, estaba completamente sola. En su vida actual, hay gente malvada urdiendo planes y esperando ansiosamente su caída. Lo siento, pero esta chica no caerá en las mismas trampas dos veces.

It was supposed to be one reckless night. No names, no rules. Just heat, raw passion, and a man who made me forget everything, except how amazing he felt between my thighs. I didn’t know he was Dante Romano, heir to the city’s most ruthless mafia empire. I didn’t know I’d end up working for him. And I definitely didn’t plan to move into his estate with armed men, luxury bedrooms, and him finding reasons to be around me, looking sinfully hot and impossible to ignore. Now I have 100 days under his control, locked in his world of secrets, violence, and temptation, trying to use my cybersecurity skills to protect the empire he was born to rule. But the real danger isn’t the enemies lurking outside and inside. It’s the way he looks at me like I already belong to him. It started with a one-night stand. It might end with me burning for a man I was never meant to love.

She wasn't looking for trouble. He was the embodiment of it. 20-year-old Elena's life was ordinary—until a wrong turn down a dark alley brought her face-to-face with a man who radiated danger. Cold eyes. A cruel smirk. And a presence that made her blood freeze. She thought it was over. But he had already marked her. Luca Romano doesn't believe in coincidence. When he saw her, something in him snapped. He began watching her, learning her every move, craving her innocence like an addict. When their paths cross again, it isn't by accident. He wants her. And Luca always gets what he wants. A tale of obsession, control, and the blurred lines between love and possession

He was my childhood best friend—my protector, my secret crush. Now he's the most feared mafia boss in Italy… and I’m his favorite possession. Luca Moretti is cold, calculating, and devastatingly beautiful—a billionaire crime lord who owns Milan’s underground. When Elio Romano, the soft-spoken artist he once protected as a boy, returns to Italy broken and alone, Luca claims him—not with words, but with chains, kisses, and bruised devotion. What starts as protection becomes obsession. What was once friendship becomes a deadly, irresistible game. Because toys don’t get to say no… especially not to the Mafia King. ---

Eran mis tres peores pesadillas. Max, Ryder y Callum. Max tenía unos llamativos ojos verde esmeralda y un cabello negro despeinado que le caía con naturalidad sobre la frente, lo que le otorgaba un irresistible encanto de chico malo. Además, tenía tatuajes en los brazos y el cuello. Ryder también tenía atractivos ojos verde esmeralda como Max, una mandíbula cincelada, un rostro perfectamente esculpido y poseía un encanto ligeramente rudo. Aunque Callum tenía ojos verdes como los demás, su cabello era castaño, a diferencia de ellos. Había una palabra para describir a Callum: playboy universal. Él era tranquilo y reservado, pero mientras Max y Ryder siempre estaban ocupados haciendo de mi vida un infierno en la manada, él sólo se preocupaba por la próxima chica que llevaría a su cama esa semana.

"You were mine the moment you tried to understand me, Dimitri-every thought, every breath, bound to me. And no matter how hard you fight it; you'll always crave the darkness I pulled you into." The world watched in collective disbelief as the notorious serial killer, Thanatos, walked into a police station one cool September morning and surrendered. The infamous murderer, whose body count had surpassed a hundred, had brought nations to their knees with fear, causing parents to hold their children closer and cities to lock their doors at night. His sudden surrender was met with a mixture of shock and relief. Finally, the nightmare was over-or so the world thought. But the man known as Thanatos, Kian Orlov, did not speak a word following his arrest. His silence was deafening, leaving investigators grasping at straws and the media scrambling for answers. With no confession and no clues, the case threatened to crumble, a shadow of its former terror lingering just beneath the surface. The authorities were desperate, knowing that without answers, the fear could easily return. In a last-ditch effort to crack the case, they called upon the world's most renowned criminal psychologist, Dimitri Romano. Known for his ability to delve into the darkest minds and emerge with the truth, Dimitri had faced monsters of all kinds-but never had he encountered a case like this, nor a man like Kian. A criminal and a psychologist. A love story full of possession and power, pain and anguish, infatuation and passion. The borderline between reality and fantasy, between good and evil. What is their love if not forbidden? In the shadows of obsession and sin, their bond is as dangerous as it is inescapable.

To stop a war and keep her brothers out of body bags, Leona is forced into marriage with Lucien Romano,rumored to have killed his brother, the Devil’s heir. Cold-eyed, calculating, and lethal, he sees her as a pawn. She sees him as a sentence. She expected chains. She didn’t expect the heat in his gaze, the magnetic pull of danger, or how fast hate can twist into something far more volatile. Behind closed doors and under bloodbound vows, trust is a weapon, and love is the deadliest betrayal. Every kiss is a risk. Every touch, a trap. Two enemies. One contract. A war that never ended just changed tactics. And a bride who just might burn the kingdom down before she kneels.

Bajo el cielo triple de Eclípsion, donde las lunas Zorya, Nocturne y Umbría vigilan como diosas caprichosas, la guerra no se libra en campos de batalla, sino en los Coliseos de Sangre. Aquí, los guerreros Marcados—seres con runas que conceden poderes divinos—luchan no por gloria personal, sino por el destino de naciones enteras. Pero tras los combates, un secreto putrefacto se esconde: las runas son cadenas, los coliseos son jaulas... y los dragones que custodian las arenas no son guardianes, sino carceleros. Ryn, un joven Marcado con una runa indescifrable y sueños de dragones que le susurran verdades ajenas, solo quiere sobrevivir. Pero cuando desata sin control su Furia Lunar—un poder que drena la luz de las lunas para convertirlo en un demonio veloz—, atrae la atención de Malakar, un nigromante que esgrima una guadaña tallada con huesos de dragón. Malakar no busca gobernar Eclípsion: quiere destruir las tres lunas y liberar al Dios Devorador, una entidad que promete "purificar" el mundo... a costa de toda vida. Junto a Lira (una estratega fugitiva con sangre de autócrata), Torin (un gigante que carga un martillo y un pasado oscuro) y Veyra (una invocadora obsesionada con vengar a su hermano devorado por dragones), Ryn descubrirá que su runa es la llave de una profecía olvidada: el último Marcado capaz de domar dragones. Mientras Malakar resurge guerreros muertos como Espectros de Ébano y las Casas Autócratas tejen tramas milenarias, el grupo deberá descifrar mentiras ancestrales: - ¿Por qué los dragones atacan solo a los desertores? - ¿Fue Kaelion, el legendario fugitivo, un héroe... o un traidor? - ¿Y por qué la runa de Ryn arde con el mismo brillo que los ojos de Ignavus, el dragón cicatrizado que los sigue como un espectro? En arenas donde la arena se mezcla con sangre antigua, Lunas de Acero es una carrera contra el eclipse que amenaza con engullir a Eclípsion. Entre combates frenéticos donde los poderes lunares chocan contra la necromancia, alianzas traicioneras y dragones cuyos rugidos resuenan como maldiciones, Ryn y sus amigos lucharán no solo por la libertad, sino por reescribir las reglas de un juego que lleva milenios manipulando a la humanidad. ¿Podrá un Marcado sin destino romper las cadenas de un mundo donde hasta las lunas son mentiras? El primer paso es sobrevivir... pero el último será volar. ¿Qué encontrarás aquí? - Batallas épicas con poderes basados en las fases lunares. - Dragones que son tan enigmáticos como letales. - Misterios que se desentrañan entre golpes y diálogos ágiles. - Amistad y traición, donde cada aliado guarda un secreto que podría cambiar el rumbo de la guerra. - Un villano que no busca el poder, sino el fin de todo lo que ama. Lunas de Acero es una oda a los perdedores que se atreven a alzar la vista... ¡y a morder la mano de los dioses que los esclavizan!

Bastardo! Once Great Master Benigno overheard Leonardo's answer, the wooden stick banged loudly on the table. Romano, a former mortal foe. The jerk who married Bianca, the sister of Bellezza McCarthy. Everything has become a mess, especially since Serena Wilson is a member of their family. "Are you sure of that, Leo?" he asked again. "Yes, sir, I can confirm, and there's no denying that the man's name is Francesco," said Leonardo. Mr. Romano's bodyguard has been thoroughly investigated by colleagues in Naples and Palermo. They are frequently seen attending mafia clan business meetings. "Contact Antonio back in Milan as soon as possible and retrieve the rest of my daughter's jewelry from the bastard's hands!" Mr. Benigno's was enraged that he had sent the young guards out of his boudoir at Lombardy Castle. Serena Wilson and Ryan McCarthy's marriage brought back a mafia conflict that began decades ago. The same mistakes that repeatedly lead to conflict. Their grand-kids should not have married, further destabilizing the situation. ***

My hands trembled, my pulse a frantic drumbeat against my ribs as Liam Romano slid the ring onto my finger. White gold. Flawless diamonds. Cold and unfeeling—just like the man who now owned me. For most, a wedding ring symbolized love, devotion, a future built on choice. For me, it was a prison. A silent contract that stripped away my name, my freedom, my very identity. Emily Carter no longer existed. I was Emily Romano now. A pawn in a game played by ruthless men. A caged bird with no escape. I should have run when I had the chance. Now, as the most powerful figures of the New York and Chicago Famiglias watched in chilling silence, escape was nothing more than a distant dream. There were no second chances. No mercy. In our world, a marriage didn’t end unless a body hit the ground—and I knew whose body that would be if I dared to run. This wasn’t love. This was war. A treaty forged in blood. A fragile truce between two criminal empires standing at the edge of destruction. The Bratva were circling like vultures, waiting for a weakness, a reason to strike. And I? I was the peace offering, the price my father had paid to keep our family standing. I should be thankful. That’s what they told me. That’s what my father drilled into my head, over and over again. But gratitude didn’t make the chains any lighter. "You may kiss the bride." The priest’s voice shattered the silence. I forced myself to lift my gaze. Liam’s dark, calculating eyes met mine, void of warmth, void of hesitation. His face, cold and unreadable, gave away nothing. He was a man who had never known fear. A man who didn’t bend, didn’t break. And now, I belonged to him. The world watched, waiting for a sign of weakness. A crack in my mask. I wouldn’t give them one. But Liam? Liam saw through it all. His fingers tightened around mine—a warning, a promise. Then he moved. His lips crashed against mine, not soft, not tender—a kiss of possession. Of dominance. A silent vow that sealed my fate. My body stiffened under his touch, but I didn’t pull away. Because I knew what he was telling me without saying a word. You are mine. And in that moment, I realized something terrifying. I was his to keep. And his to break.

“Tsk, Spener… you thought I came all the way here to grant your wish?” I asked my voice husky and cold. His eyes flashed with fear and I could sense dread in his eyes as he shook his head in terror. “Please…. one more chance” he sobbed as the tears rolled down his eyes and I burst into laughter. Of course, I could be a little bit of a psychopath when the sun goes down. Las Vegas is a city that never sleeps, much like Leonardo "Leo" DeLuca, heir to one of the most powerful mafia families in the country.

She agrees, believing she can handle a man like Leo. But as they navigate their dangerous arrangement, she begins to see the cracks in his armor.   As Leo lets Isla in, his past resurfaces—old enemies, long-buried secrets, and a woman from his past, Sophia LaRosa, who refuses to let go. Marco, fueled by hatred, seizes the opportunity to strike, aligning himself with dangerous rivals to overthrow Leo.   When betrayals come from the people closest to them, Leo and Isla must fight for survival—not just for their empire, but for each other.   But in a world where love is a weakness and power is everything, can they defy the odds? Or will the ghosts of the past destroy them both?

Diora Romano's life had always been defined by her frailty.

Despite her delicate constitution, Diora's spirit remained unbroken, and she learned to adapt to her limitations. But Diora's world was about to take a drastic turn.

But it was said that Kyros's heart was colder than the stone walls of his estate. He was a man without emotions, without compassion, and without mercy. Those who crossed him were dealt with swiftly and severely, never to be seen again. As Diora stood before her parents, accepting the news of her betrothal with a mix of trepidation and resignation, she couldn't help but wonder: what lay ahead for her in the day
