Fifteen years ago, I severed ties.

I walked away from the nightmare that was my family name.

I started over, built a life for myself. But when a woman I could never have needed me, I did the only thing I could. I embraced my name and the darkness that came with it.

Now I’m back, running the bloody business inherited through generations of Ludovico’s. Murdering, corruption… every day I’m back my soul becomes blacker with each sin.

Until her.

Nina belongs to me now, after being kept a prisoner in her father’s gilded cage. She’s beautiful, perfect, and too innocent for the terrors of my past. But that won’t stop me from making her mine in every way.
