Beauty and the Beast with a Mafia TwistNessa Griffin leads a lonely life. Compassionate and gentle, she fills no role in her family's mafia empire. She struggles to prove herself at home and at her highly-competitive ballet corps. Mikolaj Wilk is the most vicious gangster in Chicago. His adoptive father saved him from the streets of Warsaw, only to die at the hands of the Griffins. Bent on revenge, Mikolaj abducts Nessa, holding her captive in his mouldering gothic mansion. As he plots the destruction of everything she holds dear, he finds himself fixated on his little ballerina's newest dance. Terrified by the growing tension with her kidnapper, Nessa loses herself in a dark fairytale ballet that parallels their increasingly twisted relationship. Can Nessa find the man inside the beast? Or will this be her last dance?

Stolen Heir

He ate the beef with a small serving of vegetables. No wonder he’s so lean. Maybe he doesn’t like human food. Maybe he prefers drinking warm blood.

Love is the only thing you can’t steal. You can’t create it, either. It either exists or it doesn’t. And if it exists, you can’t take it by force.

"Do you know why I sent you away?" I ask her.

“Yes,” she sobs. “Because you love me.”
