Like every man, I had a type. Except Indra was the total opposite of that. She was exactly what I needed. But with her came an ultimatum I never expected. I was forced to choose between my family and her.

I've learned many lessons throughout my life, but one is more important than the rest: My life is not my own. I understand this more every single day with the actions my family commit. They've arranged for me to marry a clan leader. There's only one problem - I won't be marrying him. I'll be murdering him.

Wren is the one woman I shouldn’t have feelings for, but I’ve been in love with her since I met her. Months have past, but when I see her in New Orleans I can sense she's running from something. I know it isn't my responsibility but it feels like I need to help her. Even more than that, it's the perfect opportunity to right my wrongs. Only, I get more than I could've bargained for. What I never imagined was for her to run again. This time straight into the clutches of her sadistic ex, putting her life in more danger than before.

I've never been the type to get on the wrong side of the law until the day I did. I was given two options, to either go to jail for a very long time or become an agent for the CIA. I'm unlike any other agent, though. Most of my colleagues don't have families like I do. You see, I'm Romanian and the purest of blood flows through my veins. Since time has passed I believe I was targeted because of who I know. Otherwise I wouldn't have been sent on this mission, to take down Franco Falcone of the New York Crime Family.

One-night stands are kind of my thing. Hit it and run because I have no desire to get tied down to a woman. Honestly, I have no desire to see the women I get in bed more than once. We can pass on the cuddling, coffee dates, and telling each other all our hopes and dreams. I'm just not that guy. At least, I wasn't, until a beauty - unlike anything I've ever seen - ambushed my life by walking into the bar, one night.

There’s a massive difference between wanting something, and needing it. That was a rude awakening the first time I saw her. Even though I wanted her, I refused to allow myself to have her. There were two reasons for that choice. One was a promise I made to myself long ago. The second is because she’s off limits. No matter how much I wanted her I couldn’t give into my desires. No matter how intriguing I find this woman, I simply cannot cross this line. That is - until secrets are revealed.

She only came into our lives on a whim because we outsmarted the woman who was trying to double cross us. While I hated Sakura at first her actions have proven she’s not only as loyal as they come, but has undeniable honor. Now all I want to do is wrap her in my arms and tell her it’s going to be okay, that we’ll survive the battle with her family. But will we? Sakura isn’t just any gorgeous Japanese woman. She’s Sakura Kobayashi, daughter of the Yakuza and her father has put a bounty on her head.

My Prez thinks I betrayed his trust...but I didn't. I did the only thing I could think of at the time. I went to the one person who just might believe my ass - the national charter Prez, Rancid. Fortunately for me, he believed every word I told him and had me lay low for a while. The plan he made was foolish at best and got me in deeper shit than I was in before. I'm a dead man, but none of it matters when my eyes see the one thing I'd gamble with. Her.

They call me Hades for one reason, and one reason only. I’m the one who sovereigns rule around here. I sit on a chair made up of skulls in the depths of Hell, ready to add more to my extravagant throne if they deserve it.mMy life was filled with nothing but pain until I met her. In a split second I realized the pain has only just begun. Could this woman who captured my soul be the one destined to control Satan himself? She doesn’t know the power she holds over me and I doubt she ever will.

Lacey was the one person I could never have. She was off-limits in every sense of the word. I went to my family's lake house and found her in the guest house. Little did I know she asked my father if she could spend her last free summer in the one place she adored. That summer the devil tempted me, putting forbidden fruit right in front of my very eyes. I did such a good job at keeping my distance until the night of her 18th birthday. She was officially a woman, and there wasn't another reason to keep my desires at bay.

I've known Cali my whole life, and I've wanted her for just as long. As head of the Savage Riders, there are a lot of perks that come with being linked with the Savage Menaces MC. Family, money, sex, whatever we want. But Cali is still the only thing I can picture on my arm and in my bed. Until the cartel shows up, and a car accident changes everything. Will I get to make her mine in every way? Or will this life scare her away? I’ll do everything I can to show her the club life isn’t all bad and that we belong together.

They say when you know, you know. The only thing I knew the second I met her was that she was crazier than I was, and that made me crave her even more. Only, things never work out the way you think they will. She was hiding shit from me but more than that, she was hiding something from the club. After her betrayal I swore I wouldn't love again, but just as I swore off women someone else came into the picture. A breathtaking vixen that was sure to change my mind.

I don't know what it is about this stranger that sparks a fire deep inside me. He makes me question everything about my life. I met him one time when he was in the bar with a buddy of his. Weeks have gone by, and I haven't seen him, but I know where he is. He's a Reaper, and these bastards are easy to find.

No one should have to face the devil more than once in their lifetime - yet I've had to stare deep into his soulless eyes twice. If you ask me, I was left broken beyond repair. At least, that's what I thought. Rage didn't, though. They say love conquers all, but how will that be true when he hears everything? The veil will be removed and Rage will see every emotional and physical scar that marks my mind, spirit and soul. This man has been my rock since the moment I met him, and I just wonder if our love is strong enough to weather the storm that's headed our way.

My father gave me an ultimatum. He should really know better than that. I was set to marry Isabella, the daughter of a prestigious accountant for one of the Clans. He's been pressuring me for years to get married to extend our lineage - basically, to open up a baby-making factory. I may be marrying a woman, but it sure as hell won't be a boring little virgin girl. I want defiance in the highest form, and how better to achieve that than marrying a slave?

I changed every part of myself for him. At first, I thought it was because I loved him. Eventually, I realized that what he did to me was the most disgusting form of emotional abuse. He made me feel as if the authentic parts of me were wrong - that I was ugly. One night, after I had been through hell, I ran to my best friend Natasha's house. I wanted the comfort of my best friend - to hold me and tell me everything would be okay.

Throughout my entire life, I've only wanted one thing - independence. It might seem easy, but it's quite the contrary. It's nothing but a myth in my family because my life is not my own. It never has been, and it never will be. At least, not until now. I made a deal with my father to gain some aspect of freedom. I would marry a Romanian Clan leader to unite their vast mafia with our family hitman business. Two powerful families coming together, creating the most feared partnership in the world.

Who would've known what I'd find in that fucking basement. More importantly, who knew what I was gonna do. It felt natural, to take off my cut and place it over her shoulders. She'd been exposed for god knows how long, and all I could think is that I didn't want another man's eyes raking over her body. In putting my cut over her, I was claiming her as mine. Alexa may not know it, but she's my lost little lamb and I won't let anyone harm her ever again.

She’s always belonged to me, even when she wasn’t with me. We didn’t work well in past, but that doesn’t mean we can’t work well now. She understands every broken part of me, more so then my own flesh and blood. I didn’t do a good job being her man when we were kids, and now’s the time to make up for that. Even as everything is going to shit around us, I’m determined to show her that we were always meant to be.

My entire life I’ve gotten into my fair share of trouble. It started when I was young and progressively has gotten worse over the years. But for the first time ever I’ve found myself in a compromising position - backed into a corner. Forced to run to the one person on this planet who doesn’t view me as a callous creature, I go to the only blood I have left. My daughter, boss, the Prez of the Iron Vex MC. There’s no chance to save my soul, but I will save my club by doing the only thing I can. The demons of Hell will be no more. It’s time for a new era.
