Summary

{COMPLETE} Aria Ceto's life is a mystery, one that cannot be easily explained. After losing her voice in an accident that almost claims her life, she flees to New York to disappear. Meanwhile, Russian Mafia heir Maks Volkov is busy running his empire and aiding his partner, Nick Fordson, in smoothing out the kinks in his life. A man of terrifying repute, Maks has no room in his world for kindness or compassion, until he runs into Aria. Obsessed, he vows to make her his own, not realizing just how difficult that will turn out to be. As Aria's dark past resurfaces, pulling them all under, Maks will have to fight harder than he'd ever thought possible to hold onto the one thing in his life he can't afford to lose.

Prologue

Aria

I’ll never forget the way sunlight made the water dance. Sometimes, disrupting the surface to a calm exterior can be a beautiful thing, can give you a glimpse of something not many are willing see beyond. I loved the water, loved to swim down to the bottom of a pool or shallow lake and stare up at the top, my eyes drinking in the patterns the light made upon the surface. I loved the way the force of the liquid upon my ears hushed the noise of this world.

I still loved the water, even after the accident. Even after I lost everything that made me me. I never told anyone who’d done it, because I wasn’t all too sure I hadn’t been seeing things, simply imagining the entire atrocity committed before my eyes. Minds are a peculiar thing, truly; in times of great peril, the brain will often reach out to your most potent, happy memories, and squeeze them together into some sort of hallucination in order to cope with what is really happening in the physical world. Mine did, that night. It gave me images that all swirled together like a hurricane, where I was the eye of the storm over a vast, endless sea. One thing became a surety in the hospital that night after I was pulled from the depths, though.

I would never talk again.

Silver's Second Chance

Ashley: I enjoyed the story. It was a short one so the fast pace fit. I think something should be put in to show a time jump between paragraphs like a "****" just to make it easier to follow when we skip to the next day week or month. Over all a good read.
