They say if you steal from the Irish mafia, you don’t just die...you vanish.
That’s my job.
I’m the one they send when someone forgets their place.
The Reaper.
So when I find a maid on her knees in the Don’s private study, fingers shaking around stolen intel, the ending should be simple.
I should kill her.
Instead, I give her five minutes to run.
And she heads straight into the woods.
Into the dark and into me.
She’s defiant, pretty and too brave for her own good.
And every second she pushes back, I crave her more.
I tell myself it’s about punishment.
About control.
But really the truth is far uglier.
I don’t just want her afraid.
I want her fighting me... burning herself out trying to deny the fire between us.
But once I decide to keep my little sunshine, there’s no escape.
No life that doesn’t orbit mine.
And if she thinks being caught was the worst thing that could happen to her?
She hasn’t realized yet.
The hunt was just the beginning.
