A Love Doomed to Fail…
Abandoning Sable was a mistake but killing her brother would have been much worse.
I let her go to save her from my brutal mafia world—a world she can’t navigate as long as she insists on protecting her brother from me. Keeping her trapped between the two of us would eventually tear her apart.
My focus has to be on my family. No more distractions. Easier said than done, especially after our most dangerous enemy comes at me through Sable. I’m one threat away from losing her forever but my focus can’t be split while the Accetti empire is on the verge of collapse. Walking this tightrope between honoring my family and helping her understand my savage business isn’t working.
Staying away from her is no longer an option. She needs my protection even if she doesn’t want it. But why would she ever take me back?
