HOPE

It should have been an easy sell.
He was just another client, a wealthy target.
I offered him what I had.
He stole the rest.
Beautiful. Confident.
His mafia lineage made him a conqueror.
He dominated my senses.
He planned to rule my body as well.
I didn’t have a chance at keeping my heart.

AXEL

Her name said it all.
Hope.
She came to me in my darkness.
The compass that would guide me out of the storm.
A goddess.
She’s with me as I fight the enemy that took everything from me.
I am at war now, but the moment the dust settles I’m taking Hope as my prize.
She’s a challenge. Resistant.
Catching her will be like catching a wind.
But the Gustavon men are wolves. We know how to tame the wind.
And I’m a patient man.
Victory is my only option.
