My Devil’s Side: Book 1 & 2 Beautifully Broken
Ace POVElise and I stood at the bar watching Alley and Greg met Ralph. They got a small corner booth at an upscale restaurant to discuss this business proposal I'm sure Alley thought would save them. "Ace, what is the plan?" Elise watched me stare pure hatred at the girl I once thought was my whole world."Ruin her!""Ace, please trust me when I say you don't want to do that. She is more fragile than you think. Just leave her be." Elise pleaded to me."I thought you came to help?" I chugged down the rest of my whiskey then walked to their table. They had enough time to think this would work."I'm trying too." I heard Elise mutter as she followed behind me. Alley caught my eyes first and she nearly lost her breath. The fucking world seemed to stand still as I walked to her. I hated this effect she had on me. She was evil, worthless, yet my fucking body yearned for her. My insides begged to just hold her and it made no fucking sense."Ace! I'm glad you made it." Ralph stood extending
My Devil’s Side: Book 1 & 2 Memories
Alley POVI watched Christian walk away from my life, again. Tears slowly left my eyes hating this imagine more than anything else. Why does it have to be so hard?"I should take you home." Greg's hand came to mine drawing small circles with his thumb. I wasn't spiraling, I was just numb."I'm sorry for wasting your time Ralph." I spoke almost dismissively to the air. I didn't know if he was connected to the shit the Blackwood name was involved in, but right now I didn't care. His family was in bed with the Devil and I was done with all them in my life.I slid out the booth then turned to Greg. "We need to have our talk. I need to tell you, before I can't.""Ok. Let's go home. Darien is with my sister so we won't have any interruptions." His hand slid on my waist and guided me out the restaurant. I made some coffee the second we got back to my house and we sat awkwardly on my couch. I know Greg was waiting patiently for me to begin."My real name is Alley Knight and I grew up in a sm
My Devil’s Side: Book 1 & 2 Letting Go
Ace POV"Ace, I'm sorry. I don't know what to say." Elise stood at my kitchen island as I emptied all my cabinets that had liquor. I don't fucking care how, I just needed my head to stop thinking."I'm fine!" I blurted out opening a bottle of gin. Whoever hosted this fucking place must of had a lot of alcoholics because I could easily drown myself for days."You're not fine. Do you want to talk about it?""No! Go away!" I just finished off the half of bottle of gin then opened the vodka."You're going to be throwing up all night.""I'm fine with that as long as I don't remember who I am." I chugged the vodka, but then Elise grabbed the bottle from me spilling half it over the floor. My hand just as quickly reached her neck squeezing her airways tight. "I'm not in the mood to be babied right now. I don't need help and I don't need you. Get out!" I released her neck then left her in the kitchen coughing."Asshole!" She whispered.I sat on my couch with legs opened wide and head laid ba
My Devil’s Side: Book 1 & 2 Last Dance
Ace POVI walked into the dining hall feeling incredibly uneasy. One hand remained in my slacks and the other nervously raked my black hair or played with my jacket. I never in my life felt this uncomfortable before. It didn't matter though. I had to just see her and say good bye. I needed to know she would never try to leave this world again.There was a stage with kids setting up for what looked to be a play. This charity event was already much different than any I had been too. We didn't invite the poor to mingle with us and we definitely didn't watch some half ass play they put on. The space itself was fancy with black tile floors and silver walls. The ceiling had large modern light structures hanging from above with fairy lights strung between. There was a wooden stage that looked to be setup and not a permanent fixture, a section for tables covered in white linens, and of course a small dance floor. People already took their seats to begin eating and a man announced the show wa
My Devil’s Side: Book 1 & 2 Who We Are
Ace POVI stood on that dance floor watching his broad shoulders walk away from me yet again. I had to pray that this would be the last time. I don't know why I ever doubted him about protecting those boys. I think a part of me craved for him to be by our side and feared he might actually try to be.Seven years passed and as much as a Ethan said I didn't know the man he became, he was wrong. I know Ace, he was an angry man with the power to destroy anyone's life. He was also compassionate and caring, especially for the few he loved and respected. I wiped the tear from my eye and turned back to Greg. This was the life I needed to be heading towards."You ok?" Greg's eyes were all fatherly. Ever since I told him about my past he treated me like a kid sister. It was for the best since I wasn't in love with him, but it still kind of hurt too. There were no long stares or sexual touches. He was just a really good friend that was like family to me now."I will be and Christian won't be back
My Devil’s Side: Book 1 & 2 Big Bad Mob Boss
Ace POVThe second I stepped foot off the plane in hot as hell Columbia my little rat face fiancé was wrapped around me. God, this was going to be a long fucking trip."Ace, I missed you, my future husband!" Marie was roughly kissing my neck while licking and sucking as she moaned. I stood there in grey suit pants, white shirt half a mess, and just numb. I didn't grab her back and cracked my neck at the constant nibbling. I walked the runaway to the private airport doors trying to remember why I can't just kill her."Ok, enough. I missed you too... but get off me!" I tried sounding nice. I knew I didn't though. I set her down and Daniel was by my side shaking his head. Elise didn't look amused like she use to when I was being tortured. She gave me a half smile and then walked ahead. Daniel knew something had changed between us but he knew better then to question me. I helped my Nanny and Elise get into one of the four black SUVs that waited for us. Fernando practically owned this co
My Devil’s Side: Book 1 & 2 Double Agent
Daniel POV"Ethan, fucking finally. I've been calling...""Daniel she's gone. We need help. I can't," Ethan was crying as he spoke random words. "Ethan what is happening? I need you to calm down and tell me what happened. Who is gone?""Alley, she is fucking gone. She wouldn't just leave or abandon Darien. Someone took her. Ace or one of his lowlife piece of shit associates took her. I swear I will kill him!" His sobs turned to rage quickly and I didn't doubt he wouldn't try to take down Ace if anything happened to Alley. The thing is, he wouldn't have to. Ace would take himself out if she was harmed. It was one of the reason I never told him about what his father did. Ace would kill everyone in his path until he just gave up and killed himself. Fuck, of course. Angelo!"Ethan I need you to calm down and listen to me. Take the kids and go to my contact. You have to hide.""I'm not going anywhere without her!" He interrupted me yelling."Ethan she is gone. Angelo went off the grid l
My Devil’s Side: Book 1 & 2 Off the Grid
Ethan POVAlley left the other morning for her therapy appointment, but never returned. She always comes straight back home to complain how the doctor makes her think too much. It had been hectic in our house with Layla and the twins I didn't think much about it until a few hours went by. I had called her several times with no response and then worry set in. Her therapist had already confirmed she came and left. I checked the hospital and local roadway authorities for any auto accidents. Then her doctor called me back to tell me her car was still in the garage.At that moment I knew she was gone. Someone took her and it was someone connected to Ace. That bastard knew he was dabbling in dangerous bullshit yet still came here to see her, and for what? To yell at her? choke her? I never seen two people more perfect for each other yet so wrong for each other then Alley and Ace. I was done with him for good this time though. He should had never stepped foot here and put her in this danger

My Devil’s Side: Book 1 & 2 Epilogue 2 - Life Was Never Kind Until It Was
Nanny Fuck Face POVI looked down from my balcony from my bedroom window leaning on my cane as all my great grandchildren played in the pool outside. Today was the twin's sixteen birthday and the house was full of friends and family. For six months I stayed with Ace in hiding, waiting patiently to be able to live this life I desired for so long. After my daughter died I gave up thinking life would ever be kind to me. I felt hopeless and weak until that day I stood at Ace's graduation party and saw his undying love for Alley. They were saying goodbye but I knew she was his salvation. The light he needed to keep his soul alive and good. Then I saw my other grandson, a boy I thought that was lost to this family and was thankful for it. The Blackwoods were so deeply rooted in sin I prayed everyday my grandchildren would find a better life than my daughter or I did.I never thought it would turn out like this.

My Devil’s Side: Book 1 & 2 Epilogue 1 - Simple Life
Alley POV"Are you saying my son is a problem. I can assure you he is the least of your worries." Christian's tall muscular frame was backing up a perky little woman against a wall. I rolled my eyes with a sigh. Such a brute, especially when it came to his kids."Calm down there, Varsity dip shit." I pulled his shoulder away from the scared woman. Christian's eyes turned dark on me and I just raised my eyebrows at him. My fingers touched my necklace, one he had made for me on my sixteenth birthday but gave to me years later. He was my forever, our love and bond infinite, and he will be a good boy that listened."This woman said Darien seems distracted. She thinks he's been the one pranking the principal. I want to speak to this so called principal!" His voice softened as he spoke to me, but it still held a demand in his tone. "This woman is his teacher and is harmless. We know our son and I'm sure he has been causing some havoc. Sit and calm yourself." I pushed him down in a small cl
My Devil’s Side: Book 1 & 2 Where To Go From Here
Alley POVMaybe it was the pregnancy hormones or maybe I was really hating Ace right now. So much rage was coursing through my body and I was doing everything in my power not to grab the cake next to me and smash it in that motherfucker's face."What just happened?" Greg asked. He was still playing catch up."Ace faked his death. I'm going to kill him." All the pain I felt the last six months and he was alive? He was just hiding out, lying to all of us to keep us safe. That was bullshit, he was a motherfucker."Whoa! Alley's about to go lethal." Ethan and Daniel were next to me now as I watched Ace kneeling down speaking to Darien and Derek. He did look really hot and how he played with the boys was making my body call to him. No! He pays first."He lied to us." My head shot to Daniel. He knew too."Calm down. Remember you are with child Alley." Daniel had his hands up in the air in surrender."What's happening? I love when Alley goes psycho!" Elise said way too happy at my anger. Lyd
My Devil’s Side: Book 1 & 2 Finding Happiness
Alley POVSix months later:It has been a hard few months, but Greg was right, I did find happiness again. Losing Ace was just as hard, if not harder, than losing my brother and I would never get over losing either one of them.Daniel and his partner Rowan survived the explosion, but had some scars on their face and arms. I was beyond thankful they made it out alive and thought they just looked more bad ass now. Today Greg, Lydia, Darien, Derek, and myself were driving up to Daniel's summer home in Rhode Island to celebrate his engagement to Elise and his official promotion. Ethan and Layla had the baby girls in tow behind us and I looked back to them in my rear view mirror with a smile. For some reason, I was really, really excited about this weekend trip. We hadn't all spent time together in months and I wanted to be surround by my family for the whole weekend. Daniel already promised a big fire pit out back just for me, it was of course for everyone, but he knew how much I like s
My Devil’s Side: Book 1 & 2 Waiting
Alley POVIt took Ethan a long time to calm me down and get me on a plane back home. I didn't want to leave without Christian, but Darien was waiting for me at home. I wish I could say it was easier to walk away for my son. I would always choose Darien above Christian, but it didn't mean it made my decision to leave any less harder.I cried in Ethan's chest the whole plane ride home, swearing I would never step foot on one of these again. The second I did get home Darien and Derek were there welcoming me with tears. That did make my sadness a little more bearable. I loved this family so much and I just didn't understand why I couldn't have Christian too. That night Greg stayed with me and we watched movies well past the moon rising. He knew I wasn't sleeping anytime soon and Ethan needed to be with his wife. Layla was doing much better, but she still had her own stuff going on.We didn't speak much and I appreciated how Greg was relentless with the way he cared for me. It reminded m
My Devil’s Side: Book 1 & 2 Then It All Went Wrong
Daniel POVI paced the hallway outside Ace's hospital bed losing my mind. The switch was supposed to take place already and now I was losing my window. On top of that, once they arrested my boss IA moved in our department. Within a few hours I was assigned as the temporary head of the criminal organization task force and had one sorry ass fucker with a stick up his ass questioning my every move."So, you've worked undercover for seven years with this," a studious prick with four inch thick glasses looked over his paperwork, "ah, Christian Ace Blackwood?""Yes! We discussed this two hours ago. It's not that hard of name to remember either.""I see, yes. I'm just curious if maybe you've been too deep undercover. Seven years is a long time and you seem to have an unhealthy relationship with this murder." The IA agent looked in Ace's room with disgust. He was a murder, but they didn't know his story. He didn't kill randomly and never hurt someone innocent. I can't explain that in any ra
My Devil’s Side: Book 1 & 2 Last Chance for Redemption
Daniel POV"It's time." I called into Rowan to move in on the people at Déjà vu. "You got everything on our boss we needed." I could hear his amusement over the call. We've been working to take our boss down for over seven years and this was our moment."Every last fucking word." I smiled and hung up.Once I heard about Angelo taking Alley, again, and how Ace was calling a meeting, which included Dmitri I knew how to get my boss. His filth went as deep as you would line his pockets. I feed him the bait that Angelo was desperate and he contacted him to make a deal.Before Ace's little meeting my boss meet Angelo to workout a plan to remove Ace permanently, for a hefty payment of course. Angelo paid him more money then he owned and I got it all on video including the wire transfer.My men moved in already knowing I was running this operation.

My Devil’s Side: Book 1 & 2 What Matters
Ace POVI stood in front of my wall length mirror adjusting my tie. I haven't looked myself in the eye in a week and I wasn't sure if I liked the man staring back at me. I had my black suit on, black tie, and white shirt. Tonight was about ending as much of the bullshit as possible so I kept it simple. My jet black hair was still a little wet and slicked off to the side. The best feature of my whole body were these eyes and that was because they didn't belong to him. Well one other part of my body but he wasn't getting any attention tonight. I used to see my father in the mirror and fucking hated it more than anything. Despite knowing I was a good looking man I would give anything to change my appearance. To look less like that monster that raised me. Now I say that little boy. A smile tugged at my lips seeing his little face with so much power in it. He was a confident little shit and would grow up to be a man that did what he wanted. No one would keep him back, build him up just
