Peter POV

I wake up from my nap gasping. The memory of Daniel dying is rushing through me as I push through the last remnants of sleep. I lie there for a moment, trying to reconcile everything. I’m not sure who to be the most pissed at. I knew he wasn’t happy, he said I shouldn’t have taken him out of the hospital. His urges were too much for him to handle, but damn, he could have talked to me. I bite my tongue hard enough to draw blood when I think of Eamon. Fucker put Daniel in that situation to take that bullet, hiding the knowledge that they were real, because if I’d known then, fuck no, I wouldn’t have allowed it. He never understood brotherly love, though. I shouldn’t have waited. I should have taken Eamon out first. But it’s too late for that.

Lio. Lio pulled the fucking trigger. A deep growl builds in my chest. I loved him. I gave him everything, and he repaid me by killing my brother. Daniel’s voice echoes in my brain about needing to keep calm, not to punish Lio for not being perfect, but damn it, Lio has always been perfect. It’s why he’s mine. It’s why I found him, took him, and did everything I could for him. I take deep breaths, trying to rein in the anger and the poisonous hate that wants to spread. Maybe I just need to push him more, make him earn his forgiveness. I’m not fucking sure at this point if that’s possible, but maybe it’ll work. Maybe I can recapture our love. Maybe…

I startle when I notice he’s not in bed with me. I’ve been so lost in my head. Memories of what I did earlier float in my mind, and I quickly move to look at the floor. I exhale forcefully when I see him. I feared for a split-second that he’d escaped, but he didn’t. It means he knows he needs to be punished, he needs it the same way I do.

He doesn’t raise his head even as I move. I know kneeling for so long must be hurting his knees, but I don’t give a shit. I reach out and grab his hair, forcefully bringing him up and onto the bed. The way he scrambles slowly to move tells me how stiff he is from holding the same position for so long. I violently push him on his back and straddle him, grabbing his throat with my hand and squeezing. He doesn’t fight back, although I wish he would. His face steadily changes color, and tears roll down his face, making a pathway through the dried cum, but still, he doesn’t fight. The most he does is tilt his head back to give me better access. I wrench my hand off his neck, letting him draw in huge gasps of air. I punch the pillow by his head, barely missing his face. That, at least, draws a reaction from him. The flinch and fear. I want his fear. I need it.

This felt so short - it wasn't - I just couldn't put it down and devoured each new twist with an insatiable need.

This is part of a series and you do need to read the first three books or you will be wandering lost and nothing will make sense!

When we closed on book three with Alessandro and Luca - Holly Amazeballs - I was not sure what was ahead for us, who would survive, and who was nothing but fodder for the war that had arrived.

And my sweet little mentally twisted and physically tormented Lio. What have they done to you? 😢

I think Peter has truly lost it. The incident with his brother and Lio has pushed him past his ability to truly reason. I hope you burn in Tartarus!

Alessandro is trying to regain control and show he is still the Il Padrone but it seems jealousy and desire have infiltrated his ranks.

Braden is so far up his own contractile muscle (had to pass the censors 😉) He thinks he has control and that his men are devoted to him 😂 I can not wait to see him toppled, even if it is Keegan I am good with that.

OHHHH and speaking of toppling people? Mayhem? OMG I think he is the only thing that truly leads me to question if Il Padrone will come out on top

Wait till you find out who the betrayer is and the why of it... and what he did 💔

Again there is a lot going on within the story but never fear it is easy to follow and the characters are still as vivid and terrorizing as previously

And as the warnings note this is not for the faint of heart and if you are connected to the cast as I am -

be prepared for some serious cringe moments -

some OH SO HOT totally carnal moments

and lots of crimson revenge scenes

If you enjoyed the first three books then you will more than appreciate the direction this is heading.
