LOGINAfter being used and discarded by Leon, the man who destroyed his youth, Jade rebuilt himself under the watchful hand of a mafia leader who owns his freedom. But when his past lover reappears through a corporate contract, and one simple hookup that should have meant nothing, turned out to have been with that same man’s brother, Jade must decide just how much the past no longer matters to him, or whether he has been given a hand with which to get full closure on the same man who put him through hell. Will he fall a second time, or will he use the hand of another to get revenge and hurt another innocent in his wake?

I’ve given him a lot to look over. I’m sure the coming weeks are going to be trying for him, but he’s a hard worker and has a sharp mind,” I replied politely.“Yes. He really does,” the father remarked proudly. “Thank you for taking the time. I truly appreciate it,” he continued graciously.Sir Sinclair was a real gentleman.“It’s the least I can do,” I replied evenly, offering a small smile.He stared at me, his own smile receding, his expression tightening. “Leon,” he rumbled.“Sir?” I replied neutrally.“Leon. He is…a problem for you?” he asked hesitantly, like a man who knew the answer to his question but needed to hear a response.“Sir, Leon is a problem for everybody,” I replied casually. “Two hundred million can reduce a lot of pain
Barefoot, he was slightly taller than me. Only slightly.His face said it all. I smiled. “Nothing more,” I repeated calmly. “Just two guys who need each other, from time to time,” I stated smoothly, holding his damp gaze.His eyes were clear. His paleness reduced, but there was a sadness, a doubt.I pushed a little more. “When we talked, over the phone, you said you don’t want anybody to know.”He stared at me.“I thought that was kinda…,” I let my voice drift off. A look passed over his face, like it was about to twist but he had stopped it from doing so.I tilted my head to the side and gave a half-shrug, my move with Marcus when I wanted to get something that was not too serious, but that he was not so interested in giving.“If you need me, I’m here,” I said, with a small smile, holding his gaze. I gave it two seconds, then I turned toward the door.He grabbed my face and kissed me with the force of someone who hadn’t done i
“In that case, you are most welcome,” Sir Sinclar remarked graciously.“Thank you, Sir,” I replied with a light bow. He nodded and was about to turn when I moved forward with an eager step. “Would it be overextending if I asked for a tour, Sir? However brief,” I requested humbly, my hands clasped before me, facing the father.He turned back, a gentle smile on his face. His eyes slid to his son, then to me, “I’m sure Adrian –”“Oh, no, Sir,” I cut in excitedly, taking another step toward the elder. “This is YOUR house, and I am honored to be able to visit. Please, if you don’t mind,” I pressed politely, courteously, my gaze never leaving my client’s.The old man smiled in that way fathers and grandfathers do. The smile of a man who had sons he was not close to, or able to reach the way he would have liked, and was only too happy to engage with males of similar age with his progeny.But usually couldn’t because younger men were not accessible, withou
I had waited for him, gone to battle for him, and here he was, without a worry. He had been fine. I had risked myself, my gang, for him, and what was he saying? What was he doing?Barry bellowed. Shaw cursed. He, my avatar, the only good thing in my world, silently took everything my men, my shields, had to offer. Then, he walked toward the door, toward me, to leave.My guys didn’t give him room to get near me. He glanced at me, and I stared at him, no feeling in my body, but a ringing in my ears. That expression crossed again.I felt ill. Even when bullets flew past my head last night, I had not felt like this.His eyes left mine, and he walked out. Walked away. I watched him disappear. Just as he had from that day when he had gotten in the cab, and I had told Barry to get me everything on Ralis.I watched him vanish from my sight.Barry caught me as the ground shifted.Shaw called for someone or something.I turned back to wh
