Beneath The Mafia Gaze:Tales Of Revenge And Forbidden Love

The moonlight filtered through the large windows of Li Qiang's penthouse, casting a silvery glow over the room. The city lights twinkled in the distance, a stark contrast to the dark world they both inhabited. Xin Yi stood by the window, her silhouette framed by the night sky, lost in thought. Li Qiang entered the room quietly, his presence commanding yet gentle. He approached her, his footsteps barely making a sound on the plush carpet. "Xin Yi," he called softly, his voice a deep, soothing rumble. She turned to face him, her eyes reflecting a mix of determination and vulnerability. "Yes, Mr. Gou?" she replied, her voice steady despite the turmoil inside her. He stepped closer, his gaze intense and unwavering. "You don't have to call me that when we're alone," he said, a hint of a smile playing on his lips. "Call me Li Qiang." Xin Yi's heart skipped a beat. She had seen him in his most ruthless moments, but this side of him was different—softer, almost tender. "Li Qiang," she repeated, the name feeling foreign yet familiar on her tongue. He reached out, gently brushing a strand of hair from her face. His touch was surprisingly gentle, sending a shiver down her spine. "You've been through so much," he murmured, his eyes searching hers. "I see the strength in you, but I also see the pain." Tears welled up in her eyes, but she blinked them away, refusing to let them fall. "I have a mission," she said, her voice barely above a whisper. "I can't afford to be weak." Li Qiang cupped her face in his hands, his thumbs brushing away the tears that escaped. "Strength isn't about never breaking," he said softly. "It's about finding the courage to keep going, even when you're broken." For a moment, the world outside ceased to exist. It was just the two of them, standing on the precipice of something neither could fully understand. Xin Yi felt a warmth spread through her, a feeling she hadn't allowed herself to experience in a long time. Li Qiang leaned in, his breath warm against her skin. "Let me be your strength," he whispered, his lips inches from hers. "Let me help you carry the weight." Xin Yi closed her eyes, her resolve wavering. She had come here for revenge, but in this moment, all she wanted was to lose herself in his embrace. She felt his lips brush against hers, a tentative, gentle kiss that spoke of promises and unspoken desires. She kissed him back, her hands finding their way to his chest, feeling the steady beat of his heart. It was a kiss filled with longing and desperation, a silent plea for solace in a world filled with chaos. When they finally pulled apart, both were breathless, their foreheads resting against each other. "This changes nothing," Xin Yi said, her voice trembling. "I still have a mission." Li Qiang nodded, his eyes filled with understanding. "I know," he replied. "But maybe, just maybe, we can find a way to navigate this together." As they stood there, wrapped in each other's arms, the lines between love and duty blurred, leaving them both wondering what the future held. Jang Xin Yi's world shattered the night her parents were brutally murdered. Consumed by vengeance, she infiltrates a ruthless mafia organization, posing as a bodyguard. Her mission: gather evidence and dismantle the syndicate from within. But her resolve wavers when she meets Li Qiang, the enigmatic and feared underboss. As she navigates this perilous world, Xin Yi is confronted with horrors that test her every step—the nauseating stench of death, gruesome torture chambers, and the brutal reality of Li Qiang’s actions. Despite the terror, Xin Yi remains determined to see her mission through. Will her thirst for revenge triumph, or will love and danger alter her path forever? Li Qiang commands respect through sheer terror. But when he hires a fearless martial artist who speaks her mind, his curiosity is piqued. Soon, he discovers the truth—his new bodyguard is a woman in disguise.

The Cursed Family: The Villainous Daughter

Annie Chu suddenly announced to her three daughters that she would remarry. The three daughters took it as a bad thing, since all men who tried to marry their mother either had life-threatening accidents or died directly. Due to their three consecutive father’s deaths, their family was called a cursed family. No one said it out loud in front of their faces though, unless they wanted to suffer the wrath of this powerful and cursed family. However, because of this, her three beautiful daughters from three different fathers grew up with a rather distorted worldview and tastes. Her eldest, Jang Shin Ye, who preferred to be called by her English name Alliana, was hatefully touted by many women as… A bitch, a slut, a witch, a succubus. She was a villainous woman that was easy to hate. Alliana, the subject of such criticism, simply gave it a shrug, because she knew it herself that she was not a good person. Until one day, a man came to the creepy Chu mansion. ** excerpt** Alliana wearing a sexy and almost transparent lingerie leaned on the railings and looked downstairs. "Are you our new father?" Her seductive eyes looked up and down the tall and handsome man who appeared to be in his late twenties. The man furrowed his brows at her revealing clothes and looked away. "No, I am running an errand for my brother." After leaving the gifts and the bouquet of roses for his brother's stepdaughters on the table, the man turned around to leave. "Hold on." Alliana came down the stairs and stared at the handsome man with appreciation openly. "You look nice. Would you like to spend the night with me?" The man's face turned inky dark. "Miss, do you flirt with any man you see?" Alliana blinked innocently. Her playful smile was still on her face. "No, it depends on the face." The man smirked. "What a coincidence. Same here. I flirt back ‘depending on the face’." He then turned around and left decisively. "..." Alliana was stunned. So she was not pretty enough for his taste? The woman whom the rest of the womenfolk considered as a villainess suddenly laughed loudly. How amusing. A man actually refused her. Her eyes flashed mischievously. Her inner bitch was coming out. She was turned on. It seemed like she found her next victim. ******** This is one of the series I am working on. But you can read it as a stand-off.
