HATE ME #1

I'm a criminal. A businessman. A cartel boss. 

She’s a favor. Collateral. A pretty slave. 

I have no interest in her beyond keeping her alive for the man who now owns her. And yet…I’m fascinated by the little Russian. There is no room for weakness in my world, but it appears the delicate rose has steel petals. I’m willing to bleed for a willing touch, a trusting glance… 

A broken little bird. The big bad wolf. A longing that could heal or destroy. 

Hate me or hold me?
