I was sent to save her, but instead, I utterly destroyed her.
Being a Pagani man in this world came with a warning.
We were dangerous, foreboding, malicious.
Our reputation was enough of a threat to keep people in line.
I embraced who I was.
I'd always known what my place in the mafia would be which was why I'd trained since I was a little boy, learning everything my father demanded.
So when I was sent undercover within another mafia organization on a rescue mission, I wasn't happy.
This wasn't what I did.
I wasn't the kind of man to save people; I eradicated them.
Until her .
The person I'd been sent to find.
The woman who had been kidnapped.
The niece of our associate.
I should have been helping her, but instead, I'd hurt her.
I'd stolen part of her that she would never get back.
And for the first time in my life, I regretted the pain I'd caused.
She should have hated me-I despised myself.
But she didn't.
She trusted me to save her, even after everything I'd done.
She'd burrowed her way so deep inside of me that I had no idea where I finished and she began.
So I made a plan, one that the mafia wouldn't approve of.
But I didn't care, because for her, I would do anything to make sure she was protected.
I had to keep her safe, even if it meant putting us all at risk.
I'd spend the rest of my life making it up to her.
But I knew our time was limited.
She'd be gone before I knew it, the only question was whether I'd let her go, or trap her by my side, whether she liked it or not.
