Mariana and Dornan Story
continues in
Kingpin by Lili St Germain
The second scorching novel
in the USA Today bestselling Cartel
trilogy from the smash-hit author Lili St Germain.
They say love conquers all.
It's a lie.
Five days a week, I dressed
in smart business clothes. I painted my face, and went to work as an
accountant. But nothing about my life was normal.
For eight years I had been
the property of the Gypsy Brothers Motorcycle Club. I laundered their money so
well they'd never let me leave. My only glimmer of light was the man I loved.
The man who had saved me.
Dornan.
His love had been the only
thing that kept the demons at bay. But he'd become so immersed in the cartel's
brutal business that I hardly knew him anymore.
Dornan had been my
salvation, but he was also my undoing.
Would he pull me down into
the darkness until he destroyed me? Could I save him?
Did I even want to?
EXCERPT
I
recoiled as I felt her blood hit my cheek, the deafening roar of my gun
something that was becoming far too familiar. Allie hit the dirt before I’d
even blinked, the force of the bullet sending her straight onto her back.
Above
the steady drum of the rain, I heard movement outside. Jesus. Was she still
alive? I opened the door as quietly as I could and slipped out, pressing it
shut behind me. The rain was brutal, and I could barely see in front of me. I
circled around the back of the pickup, gun at the ready, my eyes searching for
any movement as I rounded the corner of the truck and happened upon Allie.
There was blood coming from her mouth, and she had one arm outstretched,
reaching clumsily for her gun. In her dying moments, she didn’t look like a bitch
anymore. She looked like a sad, lost little girl, and I silently cursed Murphy
for pulling her into this hellish existence. For the first time, I realized
that she was younger than me, just a young woman who fell in love with the
wrong man. Don’t we all.
She saw
me, and her hand reached for the gun more desperately. Before she could grab it
and take a shot at me, I placed my bare foot on her wrist, pinning it to the
ground.
She
looked up at me, her eyes sad.
‘I
thought he loved me,’ she choked.
I
nodded, crouching beside her. ‘That’s the thing about men like Murphy,’ I said
softly. ‘They’re not capable of love, Allie. They only know how to destroy.’
She
seemed to soften, her eyes closing momentarily. Blinking back tears, she gazed
up at me. ‘I don’t want to die,’ she whispered. ‘I didn’t know.’
I
nodded sympathetically, pushing her hair back from her face.
Before
she could do anything, I placed my hand over her mouth and squeezed her nose
shut between my thumb and index finger. Shock and realization lit up in her
eyes as she thrashed her head back and forth beneath my grip.
‘That’s
the difference between you and me,’ I said to her, as she clawed at my hand and
sucked against my palm for air. ‘I’m old enough to know better.
