SASKYA
I was raised to be a weapon, not a wife.
Then a lie with my face on it went around the world, and every killer in Europe learned exactly what I'm worth. Five million dollars. Dead only.
My father couldn't protect me. So he sold me to the one family he swore he would never owe.
Salvatore Spadaro. The heir of Sicily. A man with every reason to want my blood.
He wants a contract. I want terms. Separate rooms. No other women. And he doesn't lay a finger on me until I say the words out loud.
He agrees to every one.
Then he keeps them. Every single one. That's the part nobody warned me about.
Because I'm starting to want to say them.
SALVATORE
I was told to watch her. Not to touch her. Not to care if she bled.
I was raised to do what my father says. He has never once caught me doing otherwise.
Then a Russian princess walked into my city with a price on her head and a mouth that could start a war, and I stopped being able to look at anything else.
Now she's mine. My ring. My roof. My name.
And she's made me swear to keep my hands off her until she asks.
I'm a patient man. I can wait.
But my father didn't give her to me for love. He gave her to me for a reason, and the day she finds out what it is, she'll never let me near her again.
So she can't find out.
