Exclusive Excerpt:
Before he left the room, he glanced over his shoulder at me. “Don’t try to run,
angel. There are more men like Simeone waiting to get their hands on you. I’d hate having so send them after you and hurt you.” As if anyone could hurt me worse than Remo would. I forced a smile. “We both know you’re lying. You won’t let anyone hurt me.” Remo cocked one dark eyebrow. “I won’t?” “You won’t because you want to be the one to break me, to make me scream.” Remo’s mouth pulled into a smile that raised the little hairs on my skin. A smile that would haunt me forever. “Oh, I will make you scream,
angel. That I swear.” Suppressing a shudder, I dug my nails into my palms, forcing out more words from my tight throat. “Don’t waste your time. Kill me now.” “We all have to let part of ourselves die to rise up stronger. Now sleep tight. I’ll return later for a proper video message for your family.” “Why did you even save me from Simeone? Why not let him start the torture you have in mind for me? Why bring me here to your mansion?” Remo regarded me as if he too was wondering the same thing, and his silence told me that my guess had been right; this was indeed the Falcone mansion. It surprised me that he would risk bringing me into his family’s home. “Like you said I will be the one to make you scream and no one else,” he said eventually before he shut the door. I closed my eyes, and pulled the covers tighter around myself. A power play. A twisted game of chess. I wasn’t going to be a pawn or a queen, and Remo wouldn’t be the king.
