Jaxon              I never expected to see her again, especially in such dire circumstances. Striding up the stairs, I lead Maleah to my bedroom and open the door. She looks so beautiful and sad that I have to tuck my hands into my pockets to keep from touching her. The woman has always been a temptation, and it’s even more blatant when she’s dressed like every man’s wet dream. I can’t take my eyes off her long legs, cut-off jeans, and a flimsy top that outlines her firm breasts.              I watch intently as she sets down her bag on the bed and sits at the edge. I might as well not exist by the way she’s ignoring my presence. Entranced, I watch as she slides her fingers through her lush hair. Her eyes are at half-mast as she checks the bandage on her knee.       &

Jaxon              Once the bathroom door closes behind Maleah, I lean my head against the wall and close my eyes. Fuck! I should have told her the truth. It was the right moment, and I couldn’t do it. All I could do was stand there frozen like a statue. Why does the thought of telling her what happened to me make my body break out in a cold sweat? It makes no sense.               After a minute, I open my eyes, take a couple of steadying breaths, and run my fingers through my hair. This is not the time to fall apart.              Once I’ve gotten my bearings, I make my way into the guest bedroom, take a quick shower, and slide into a charcoal suit. Thankfully, I keep clothes in all of my closets. You never know when you’ll need to

Jaxon              “Here’s the plan. We’re going to meet Carlos tonight. When I do, I’m going to show him the evidence Emanuel left in the thumb drive and ask him to help me set a trap for Victor.”              Maleah places her hand on her hip with interest. “How are you going to do that?” She curiously asks. Quirking a brow, I glance at her and the others. “Well, for starters, I’m going to let him be seen with you tonight.”              Her face pales with fear, which was not my intention. “No one is going to hurt you, Mal. I just want Victor and Rolando to hear that you were seen with Carlos Lara. Rolando will assume you’re there to report back to Carlos, and Victor will see it as his opportuni

Jaxon              Seeing Mal walk towards me in her beautiful wedding dress is something I never imagined possible after everything that happened two years ago. To know now that she is my wife is the ultimate rush. For two years, I have loved this woman. And even though we were together for a mere three months, I knew she was meant to be mine. It was an instant connection that grew stronger the longer we were together. As an assassin, I always knew my life would be cut short somehow. I never thought that a normal life would be in the cards for me. Yet, when I met Maleah, all of my doubts were put to rest. I had an epiphany the day we met. I saw what my life with someone I loved could be like, and I loved how it felt. I love how she makes me feel.              It pains me to have to leave her so soon after marrying her. But I made

              Jaxon              My body heats with rage as I make my way through Miami’s airport terminal. Val’s words ring in my ears with an ominous warning. Unfortunately, the past three weeks were not fruitful. We were unsuccessful in finding any trace of Carlos’ daughter. I have to give it to Carlos though, he’s determined to find her, and I can’t fault him. If it had been my daughter, I’d do the same. Thankfully, he understood that I had to go home to my wife. He was actually surprisingly pleasant considering the circumstances, so I left him with a few of my men and offered him accommodations until he found her. Colin stayed with him too. The former detective has become quite an asset in this mission. As a new Confradia recruit brought in by Micah “Savage” St. Clair, he has been invaluable.
