ISABELLA I was the party crasher. He was the Devil.
For her, I broke all my rules. For her, I burned down the world.
The only reason I haven’t killed her yet is that she’s fucking powerful. She’s the only one who’d be able to cripple the empire I’ve built. And vice versa. Hence the unspoken truce.
People love getting that fact wrong about me.
Mercy is for the weak.
She takes pleasure in destroying things.
I’m expertly skilled in both masks I wear. The Princess of Terror – who only cares about the luxuries the cartel can give her. Then there’s Isabella Terrero – the woman who spends her nights freeing slaves. The trained fighter who never misses a shot. The daredevil who knows no fear.
Like I said, everyone wears masks.
My mother figures if I get myself kidnapped or killed, I don’t deserve to be her heir.
Demitri will move heaven and earth for the love of his life.
“Your name.”
“I’m just a party crasher.”
Like I thought.

Baby, you don’t want to know who I am.
“The Devil,”
“You better fuck like one.”
He’s everything I’ve been craving. The Devil.
“So fucking beautiful,”
“Are you real?”
“No.”
I’m only the real me when I’m risking my life to free those who’ve been stolen by my mother. Anything else is an act to divert everyone’s attention, so I won’t be found out.
The corner of his mouth lifts again. “Family. Never thought I’d consider having kids.”
“I’ll teach them how to shoot a gun,” I joke.
Demitri’s smile widens. “You better, seeing as you’ll be...

I lower my gun a couple of inches until it’s no longer trained on his chest but instead on his cock.
Again Alexei laughs. “Do you really want to deprive the world of the ecstasy you felt when I fucked you?”
My left eyebrow shoots up. “...

Alexei meets my smile as he looks at me with admiration. I’ve never had anyone look at me like that, and it makes a weird sensation ripple through my chest.
“So if I scream, you’ll come running?”
“Butt naked and armed, but I’ll come,”
I’ll make Isabella love me, marry her, and then she’ll be mine. Together we’ll rule the world.
I hate feeling helpless. God, I hate it so much.
Everything he says is perfect. Everything he does is perfect. Too perfect?
I fucking want Isabella Terrero. Not only because she’ll be a valuable ally, but because I’m falling for her. I’m fucking falling.
“You’re the first woman to make me tick. You’re such a fucking challenge, and I love it.”
“Now we’re both frustrated.”
“You couldn’t just suffer in silence on your own?”
Patience is not a fucking virtue. It’s pure torture.
“Caring is not loving, little one.”
Okay. Deep breaths. You love Isabella. Christ, so much for thinking I was the one in control. My breathing begins to speed up as I feel panic for the first time in my life. What if her memory returns and I lose her? What the fuck will I do then?
“Whatever happens in the future, I want you to remember this moment. I mean everything I’m going to say.”
“I fucking love everything about you. I could spend the next hour going into detail, but I won’t. I want you. All of you. I want you next to my side. I want to wage wars with you. I want to build empires with you. I want you in every new memory I make because there isn’t a woman on the face of this planet I respect more.”
It’s not just about love. It’s us forming an unbreakable alliance for life. Together we’ll fight. Together we’ll die. But first… together, we’ll live.
“An alliance between a Koslov and a Terrero, who would’ve thought.”
“I can’t wait to change your last name to Koslov.”
A new name for a new life.
The Princess of Terror is mine. The goddess of mischief and chaos is mine.
“Mine. A fucking goddess belongs to me.”
