CHAPTER THIRTEEN

Alaric

As I walk through the garden outside of Lucius Angeloni's home, I feverishly try to think of a way to get Sienna out of this house. I can't let her be with him. I can't let her brother get away with marrying her off to this man. She's mine. And if it takes having to kill every single one of these people to get her free, then that's what I'll do.

I tilt my head back to look up at the stars and wish the two of us were back at that apartment of hers less than a mile away from school.

I was so sure that if I stayed away from her that she'd be safe. I wouldn't bring her into my world of death and murder and hit men, and in turn, she'd be happy.

I should have stayed away, but the other night I couldn't do it anymore. Two years without feel her lips on mine and her graduation meant I needed to see her. She deserved to get a gift from me.

Fucking Trent. I knew as soon as I saw that son of a bitch that he was no good. I don't care if Helix and Nick checked him out. I knew he was rotten. Turns out I was right.

Her brother got to him. Son of a bitch. When this is all over, I’ll get that bastard back for doing this to Sienna.

But I can't focus on that right now, though. I need to figure out how to escape this place, and I need to find a way to get Sienna out of here safely.

I look around at the manicured gardens surrounding me. Lucius Angeloni has more than enough money to spend on statues and fountains and landscapers to create the most exquisite Italian garden. Why he fucking needs to have Sienna as his wife I don't understand.

There must be at least half a dozen women inside who I heard in passing tonight say that they would kill to be in her position. Why not take one of them as his bride?

Not that this marriage is anything close to real. He doesn't even care about her. So what's the point? Is this just a family thing? Is it merely the joining of the Rossetti and Angeloni families? It must be. Not that any of that means damn thing to me. I'm going to get her out of here, and she's going to be able to forget all about Matteo and Lucius.

And then it will just be the two of us. Maybe we can find a place together.

As soon as the thought enters my brain, I'm struck at how unique that idea is for me. I have never even once with any woman thought that I could make a life with them.

I think I could with Sienna, though.

Maybe I wouldn't be a hit man anymore. Maybe I would find something else to do. Maybe it's time. This is a young man's game. It could be time for me to get out while I’m still alive.
