I’m going to save Zoe from Rocco. I don’t know how, but I’m going to do it. Not to be a hero. I’m gonna do it because this is fucking wrong, and it can’t happen. She can never belong to him. Rocco sees the spark of decision in my face. He’s perceptive, I’ll give him that. It angers him. “I’ve never failed to get what I want, Miles,” he hisses. “I’m not like the other men you’ve faced. I don’t eat. I don’t sleep. I don’t give up. I can’t be threatened. I can’t be bargained with. None of your tricks will work on me.”
