What doesn't kill you, makes you stronger…
For a man like me, that thing is darkness. The darkness from my past never ended my life. It darkened my heart and flowed through my veins, fueling my hunger for revenge. That's why I accepted the job to protect her.
Her: Summer Reeves.
The beautiful angel who became an asset to me when she saw something she shouldn't have seen.
The job should have been simple. Protecting her meant getting closer to catching the man who betrayed me. I learned long before I joined the Bratva that you have to be heartless to be strong.
Except, she was the wild card I never saw coming. From the moment her lips touched mine, she became the exception to my rules. That was the moment I claimed her. I didn't care that she didn't belong in my world. Or that belonging to a man like me was her worst nightmare.
I always get what I want. She's mine to protect. So when death comes to take her, I plan to fight to keep her.
