Tonight wasn’t supposed to happen.
I told myself it wouldn’t happen.
But then she slid onto the barstool next to me, and just like the rest of the men in my family, I let a woman fuck with my plan. I’d chastised my father over the years for letting women interfere with his business. I’d warned my brother not to take the route he took—which involved getting close to a woman. Both ended up six feet under, thanks to the stupid choices they’d made regarding women.
I knew better.
She’s an Antonov.
I want what they have.
What’s owed to my family.
But I wasn’t supposed to want her.
Yet one look in Brielle’s eyes, and I was throwing everything out the window for one night with her.
She’s nothing like I expected—in the best way.
She’s fiercely independent.
Strong.
Beautiful.
And broken.
One conversation with her, and I wanted to be the one to put her pieces back together.
And that only makes what I’m about to do that much harder.
Because I’m not here to save Brielle Antonov.
And then an idea forms … because who says that just because I’m here to avenge my father’s death, I can’t also have her?
Her family owes mine.
And I’m here to collect.
And now I’m adding one more item to the list—Brielle Antonov.
She’s mine.
