Imperfect Intentions (Beauty in Imperfection) - Page 65

My pretty little thief didn’t think her plan through properly. If she doesn’t marry me, she’d have to marry someone else. Gus won’t let her off the hook. He’ll just use her as currency to secure another transaction. He’ll marry her to one of his other business buddies, someone like Carter who has five wives and six kids under his belt.

If that was her modus operandi, she’s in for a surprise. Partner or not, she’s destined to be mine. I’ll prove it too, if it’s the last thing I do. I’ll kill to make it happen. If anyone stands in my way, Gus included, he’ll end up with a bullet in his brain. Only, this time I won’t be coming to her with patience and kindness. I won’t put myself out to win her over. She doesn’t deserve my consideration. This time, it’s happening on my terms.

Pushing a memory stick into the flash drive, I copy the footage before deleting it from my hard drive. Then I drop the key in my pocket and switch off my computer before pushing to my feet. The bitter taste of betrayal follows me like a shadow as I make my way to my car. The ugly sentiment seeps into my pores until I sweat resentment and bleed darkness.

Violet Starley would’ve been my prize.

Now she’s my revenge.
