Honor or blood: She's carrying a Calabrese heir. Too bad I'm going to make her a DeLuca bride.
She was supposed to be untouchable. My brother's family. Bella's closest friend. Another man's woman.
But Elena Santiago isn't the sweet angel she pretends to be. Behind that perfect smile lies a mind as ruthless as mine. Behind those deadly eyes burns an ambition that matches my own.
Now she's pregnant with a Calabrese heir, playing games that could get her killed, and looking at me like I'm the answer to her darkest prayers.
I came back to New York for revenge. Instead, I'm going to take what was never meant to be mine.
Let them call it betrayal. Let them start a war.
Because Elena isn't just a pawn in their game. She's the queen who will help me burn their empire to the ground.
And I dare any man to try and stop me.
'You're playing with fire, princess.'
'Maybe I want to burn.'
