Iâm the genius behind the keyboard, the man at my brothersâ backs when trouble comes calling. Killing might not have been my nature, but I learned to do what I had to, to survive. To keep them alive.
Now, with everything going right, with my family finally happy, a new threat has risen. A shadow. A menace that could take it all away in a single breath. And not just from my family. From hers. Nix. One glance and I knew Iâd walk through fire to make her see me, make her mine. Too bad sheâs not willing to see inside of me. In a world where might makes right, weâre on different sides of the spectrum, but in this game of cat-and-mouse, it will take both of us to make it out alive.

Excerpt
The silence between us built as I waited for him to speak, and a warm flush crept up my neck and onto my cheeks. Finally I risked a sideways glance.
Eli was staringâat me.
âWhat?â I gathered my bowl and plate, silverware, but couldnât step away without looking at him again. âEli?â
He shook his head. âI was justâ¦â Another shrug showcased the thick muscles beneath his thin T-shirt. âI was trying to figure out what it is about you.â
The thump of my heartbeat got harder against my ribs. âWhat is what about me?â
He turned, planting a hip against the counter as he continued to stare. âEvery time I look at you, itâs like a magnet,â he said, âpulling me back time and again. I noticed it at the restaurant. Couldnât stop thinking about it. About you. And nowâ¦â
Every cell in my body screamed at me to run, hide, get awayâand yet⦠âNowâ¦what?â
âNow I know about youâa little of what youâve been through, what you do, how you love your team.â
âTheyâre my family.â The amber glow of his gaze had me dropping mine.
Why was I looking at the floor? I wasnât shy. I didnât lack strength or confidenceâmaybe had a little too much sometimes, actually. And yet that look⦠God. It was his intensity, the way his gaze crawled inside me and uncovered things I didnât want to think about, didnât want to feel. Especially right now.
I couldnât bear it; Eli Agozi was too much. Too big a threatâto me, personally, my emotions, my thoughts. He pulled me down paths I couldnât afford to follow. Mere hours in his presence and I knew.
He was the biggest risk I couldnât afford to take.
âI donât think itâs only that they became your family, though itâs partly that. Itâs also just who you are, Beautiful.â Eli leaned close until his nose barely brushed mine. Too close. âYou fascinate me, Mikaela. Iâm not sure why, and Iâm definitely not certain where it will end, but I do know one thing: itâs gonna be a hell of a ride.â He nudged my nose, one side of his mouth tugging up. âI canât wait.â
