Ace’s POV

Enzo was adamant about this shakedown going smoothly. He doesn’t want a single thing to go wrong. The goal is to get the message across to the Bonanno crew and their leader, Antonio, that we’re not to be messed with. If they don’t back off, Enzo will have no problem coming at them full force with me at his side. And unfortunately for them, I like getting my hands dirty.

All the made men in the group stand around me, black hoods covering their heads, concealing their identities. Enzo ensured they were equipped with every weapon under the sun that’ll be useful in protecting them if shit goes south. I’d like to think I have this under control. After all, Enzo trusted me to do this, so I’m going to do it right.

“Does everyone remember the plan?” My voice is quiet but deep in an attempt to not be detected where we stand in the shadows of the quarry. The full moon is our only source of light, which works in our favor for staying hidden. “The Bonanno crew have a gun shipment comi

  • Tempted by Sin   All Figured Out

    Paetyn POVThe room is beautiful. Lavish, even. Heavy, red velvet curtains frame the windows, thick enough to block out the sun. The windows themselves are tall and grid-style. The middle one contains a cushioned seat. A large four-poster bed with matching curtains sits against one wall, flanked by two bedside dressers made of the same color wood as the bedframe. A door to the right of the bed leads into an expansive ensuite bathroom, complete with Jacuzzi bath and walk-in shower. “You’ve been staring for a while, Pae. What do you think?” my father asks. I want to say something sassy and sarcastic. But, honestly, I’m just about sassed out. “It’s nice.” He smiles at me and begins extolling the virtues of the decorator. I’m not paying attention. Ace has been taken to someplace called the Penthouse, which means he isn’t with me. I don’t like it. At some point, my father notices I’m not as riveted by him as he’d hoped. “Pae? Are you all right?” I let out an incredulous laugh. “Serious

  • Tempted by Sin   From the Shadows

    Ace POVDad?! I stare at Paetyn, look at the unknown boss, then back again. “This is your father?” She nods slowly. “Yes.” “Fucking hell. You never told me he was a part of this life,” I say. “I didn’t know,” she mumbles back. “This can’t be happening.” I can hear the hopeful desperation in her tone. She’s confused and scared out of her damn mind. Fuck me, I would be, too. Paetyn’s father laughs. “I’m afraid not, darling. I guess Penny never told you what I do for a living. Well, what I do for a living in Chicago. I wish I hadn’t had to move away, but I promised your mother. Safety and all that.” He shakes his head. “And now, you’re involved with a mafia man. Too bad you took after your mother in that way.” I’d feel insulted, but I can understand his point. As a father, I wouldn’t be fucking thrilled if Paetyn brought me home. “What happens now?” I ask, wondering if I’m going to join Artie in a meat locker because daddy wants to keep his little girl safe. He smirks, and I do a d

  • Tempted by Sin   Do I Know You?

    Paetyn’s POVI’m separated from Ace. I don’t have him by my side, and I feel unsafe. Even with him bound and kneeling on the ground, as long as he was near me, and his eyes were on me, everything felt like it would turn out okay. Now? In this black SUV with these strange armed men? It’s all I can do not to curl up in a trembling little ball. But Ace wouldn’t want that, so instead, I keep my chin held high and stare down each of the men who dare to look my way as though they’re lower than dirt. Artie is glaring death at me. He’s still dabbing the blood off his face and neck with tissues. “No matter how hard you keep staring, I’m not going to go up in flames,” I snark at him. His glare intensifies. He runs a finger over my jaw, and the ache that follows in its wake makes me sure he did, indeed, bruise me. “If it wasn’t for the boss, I’d pull your teeth out with a pair of pliers and cut your fingers off.” My stomach knots. These are dangerous men. Men like Ace. But I can’t back down

  • Tempted by Sin   You'll Find Out

    Paetyn’s POVI sit in Ace’s new black Escalade, hugging my laptop and watching as he carries another load of stuff out. This time, it’s my clothes. I can see it’s not just clothes I left there, but clothes I left at Liam’s. A question niggles at the corner of my mind. I try to think of how to frame it delicately. I’m not sure I even want to know the answer. When the back door swings open, I pluck up the courage and turn to face Ace. “Did you do something to Liam?” He raises an eyebrow at me. “Don’t tell me you’re feeling sorry for that asshole.” I snort. “No. I just… he’s disappeared and…” Ace leans on the doorframe. “Would you really want to know, little bird?” I hesitate then nod. “I just know Pat Aster is going to blame you or me or both of us. He’ll be on our tail, too. I figure it’s best if I know.” “All right. No, I didn’t. I went to his place with every intention of fucking him up, if not killing him with my bare hands, but he wasn’t there.” He grits his teeth. “That was

  • Tempted by Sin   Make It Work

    Paetyn’s POVI wake up and smile, remembering the night I spent with Ace. It feels almost like a dream, but I know it can’t be because I still ache in all the right places, and I can smell his woodsy scent all over me. I run my hands over my breasts and feel the sting of where he nipped me over and over. Can I really be wet for him this early in the morning? Apparently so.Turning slightly, I see that Ace is sleeping soundly beside me, his inky hair tussled, and his lips parted as though to kiss me. While I ache to kiss him, and do other things despite all we did last night, I also want to let him sleep. I imagine he’s been sleeping just as poorly as I have while we’ve been apart. Still, I can’t resist reaching out and gently twisting a strand of his dark hair around my finger. His hand darts out and snatches mine. Then, he kisses my palm and nibbles my fingertips. “You’ve been staring, little bird.” I swallow. “I have.” “You can always wake me up. I’d always rather be with you th

  • Tempted by Sin   I'd Like That

    Ace’s POVI cup the back of Paetyn’s neck with one hand while the other slides around her waist, pulling her flush against my chest. A soft gasp slips past her full lips, and I greedily catch the sound in my mouth the second my lips attach to hers. It’s been far too fucking long since I’ve felt her against me. I pushed myself to near insanity reminding myself each day of how soft her skin is, how easily I can pull sounds from her, and how fucking sweet she smells. And now that I’ve got her back in my arms where she belongs, I’m never letting her go again. Over my dead body. Paetyn fists the front of my shirt as my mouth devours her. I saw the look in her eyes when she realised the material is coated in blood. My lifestyle is nothing new to her, but it eats away at me wondering if she thinks I’m a monster for enjoying the thrill of the kill and getting my hands dirty. I don’t want her to look at me and be scared. As long as she’s with me, she will never fear any harm that could come
