His voice is gravel, low and unyielding, as he presses just enough for sparks to crackle through me. "You come when I say. Not before."

"Break a rule," he says, voice cold enough to burn, "and you’re done."

Isabella froze, then the realization slid across her face. “Mafias, assassins, of all kinds, always had the same rule. Never ever use or take lives other than the target’s.

And I hate myself for showcasing that level of weakness. "I am merely acting like a King. If anyone breaks the rule, they get punished for it. It's as simple as that."

he shrugged, “one and done and all.” I tried to push away from him, but my body betrayed me as my hips moved against him and then my mouth decided it needed to join in, “my rules weren’t made to be broken, but, maybe just once.” What the fuck did I just say, NO, I don’t break my own rules, and we have a contract so double and triple NO’s. I shook my head, “yea, sorry forgot we have a contract so NO, that can’t happen.”

He didn’t even hear the sharp click of heels echoing through the hall. “Cardinal Rule Number 6,” came the lilting voice. “Honor all pacts with allied families.” Rios gripped the ledger before slamming it shut with a thud. “Beatrice Sandoval.” He said it with such contempt, it felt like the ground shook with his fury. “You came after all.”

“Denis always admired King Cardinal, and his reign was the most peaceful we’ve had in a long time. All the Cardinals who’ve ascended the throne have made the country prosper, but there were always disputes. Your father, however, was different. He managed to rule without any animosity from neighbouring countries. King Cardinal was fair and talented. When I wrote my brother that letter, I hoped his beliefs were still those he had ten years ago.” We had been staying at Xander’s house for days, and we had not seen or heard from the curator. This had to mean something. If Denis was going to betray us, he would have done it already. He would probably even get a ransom or something for delivering
