Mon frère perd son sang.Ma demi-soeur est partie.Les responsables prétendaient être de la famille.Par les liens du sang, et maintenant par alliance.Je veux les détruire pour ce qu'ils ont fait.Réduire en cendres tout ce qu'ils possèdent.Mais d'abord, je dois la trouver.Ryth.La pitoyable petite souris qui a débarqué dans nos vies pour ne plus en sortir.Je suis incapable de l'oublier, de la chasser de ma tête.Elle a réveillé quelque chose de dangereux en moi.Quelque chose qui m'a poussé à la détruire.Et à me détruire moi-même par la même occasion.Elle était à une époque un jeu pour moi...Elle l'est toujours... mais cette fois, c'est pour de bon.

La famille passe avant tout...J'ai toujours su que mon père était un connard froid et sans coeur.Mais à l'instant où il a fait entrer Elle Castlemaine et sa fille minable chez nous, à peine un mois après le décès de ma mère, il a libéré quelque chose de sauvage en moi.Je m'en fichais qu'elles aient perdu leur maison. Je me fichais que le père soit derrière les barreaux.Qu'il ait trahi le tristement célèbre boss de la Mafia Stidda, Benjamin Rossi, et que leurs vies soient maintenant menacées.Tout ce qui m'importait c'était elle.Ryth.Je voulais lui faire du mal, la voir se tordre de douleur.Je voulais qu'elle paye pour les gémissements qui provenaient de la chambre de mon père.Quand il a passé la bague au doigt de sa mère, Ryth est devenue ma possession.Celle que je peux malmener.Celle que je peux briser.Et mes frères m'aideront à y parvenir.Elle sera notre obsession préférée.Notre petit jeu sale et malsain.Elle sera la seule chose qui hante mes pensées, au point d'être brisé si je ne pense plus à elle.Je la détesterai. Je la détesterai si fort...

Ärger.Ich habe sie mit meinem Auto angefahren ...Dann habe ich sie nach Hause getragen.Ich versorgte ihre Wunden mit meiner eigenen dunklen Verdorbenheit.Ihre Narben erzählen eine Geschichte, Verbrennungen, Schnitte ... einige sind alt ... aber es gibt auch einige Wunden, die frisch sind.So frisch, dass sie eine gefährliche, faszinierende Geschichte erzählen. Eine, die mich fesselt, wenn ich sie erfahre.Als sie ihre Augen öffnete, zuckte sie nicht zurück wie die anderen.Stattdessen sagte sie mir ihren Namen.Helene ...Sie hat etwas Besonderes an sich. Die Art und Weise, wie sie meinem Blick begegnet. Die Art und Weise, wie sie mich ansieht.Sie hat keine Angst.Und ein gefährlicher Teil von mir will, dass das so bleibt.Nur dieses eine Mal ...Als Halestrom Hale und seine kontrollsüchtige Faust sich um mich und meine Familie ballt, verstecke sie an dem einzigen Ort, der mir sicher erscheint. Einem Ort, den ich kontrollieren kann. Ein Ort, an dem ich sie beobachten kann ...Der Orden.Als meine Brüder das herausfinden, sind sie wütend.Alles, wofür wir gearbeitet haben. All die Lügen, die wir erzählt haben.All die kranken, verdorbenen Dinge, die wir getan haben.Es könnte alles umsonst gewesen sein.Wenn sie es verrät.Also sorgen wir dafür, dass sie nichts ausplaudert.Wir halten sie auf Trab.Jede Nacht ... und den ganzen Tag lang. Bis wir merken, dass diese Frau nicht gerettet werden muss.Sie ist die Granate, vor der sich der Orden gefürchtet hat ... und ich habe sie einfach hereingebeten.

Trouble.I hit it with my car...Then I carried her home.Taking care of her wounds with my own dark depravity.Her scars tell a story, burns, cuts...some old...but there are some wounds that are fresh.So fresh they tell a dangerous, intriguing tale. One I'm captivated to learn.When she opened her eyes she didn't recoil like the others.Instead, she told me her name.Helene...There is something about her. About the way she meets my stare.She's not afraid of me.Some dangerous part of me wants to keep it that way.Just this once...When Halestrom Hale and the controlling fist clenches around me. I hide her in the only place I know. A place I can control. A place where I can watch her...The Order.When my brothers find out, they are furious.Everything we've worked for.All the lies we've told.All the sick, depraved things we've done.Could be all for nothing.If she tells.So all three of us make sure that she doesn't whisper a thing.We keep her busy.Every night...and all day long.And pray we make it out alive.

They came...They took...Now it's time to destroy them from the inside out. But first I need to get him back...my son...Colt. To do that I send the two people I hold close back into The Order. Colt's vengeful twin, Carven.And the woman I've fallen for...Vivienne. As I watch them disappear inside that Hell, I call for war,forcing every powerful man and woman in the city to choose a side. Mine...Or Halestrom Hale's. Only when those I love return from that place, they bring back a look of horror. What Carven tell me sends me reeling. With our backs against the wall, an unexpected allay rears her head. Vivienne's older sister Helene.She might be more than my way to King.But she might just give me back my family. Together, we destroy all we can.We came for vengeance...and we won't stop.Not until we're together once more.If there's anything worth dying for...it's love.

Sie ist ein trotziger, verbotener Dorn in meinem Auge.Einer, den ich nicht herausbekomme.Einer, den ich nicht trainieren kann.Aber Vivienne gehört mir. Ihr Körper. Ihre Seele ...Und am wichtigsten: ihre Abstammung.Keiner von ihnen versteht, wie wichtig sie ist.Aber ich weiß es.Meine Söhne und ich werden diese Information - sie - bis zum Tod schützen. Wir werden sie für uns behalten.Also wird sie hier bleiben, unter meinem Dach, und meine Regeln befolgen.Sie widersetzt sich mir bei jeder verdammten Gelegenheit.Spielt ihre trotzigen, kleinen Spielchen mit uns.Bis ich merke, dass meine Entschlossenheit nachlässt.Ich bin ein eiskalter, berechnender Mann.Aber ich ertappe mich auch dabei, dass ich mich in ihren Bann ziehen lasse.Und ich bin nicht der Einzige.Ich sehe den Hunger in den Augen meiner Söhne.Ich sehe, wie sie in ihrer Nähe reagieren.Sie wird für uns kein Rot tragen ...Denn sie wird überhaupt nichts tragen.Ich nehme sie mit nach unten ... und zeige ihr genau, wer hier die Kontrolle hat.Ich werde ihr zeigen, wie es ist, besessen zu werden ...

Ich wurde belogen, benutzt ... und ausgetrickst.Der Orden hat mir etwas weggenommen ...Mein Eigentum.Vivienne.Und jetzt gehört sie einem anderen Mann ...Macoy Daniels.In dem Moment, als er den Vertrag unterzeichnete, unterschrieb er sein eigenes Todesurteil.Mit den Söhnen machen wir sie ausfindig.Doch als wir dort ankommen, finden wir etwas Unerwartetes.Sie ... wild und wütend.Wir nennen sie nicht umsonst Wildkatze.Ich weiß nicht, ob ich sie vor ihrem Entführer rette ... oder andersherum.Ich weiß nur, dass ich Antworten will ...Und Rache.Ich werde zu dem Mann, den ich unbedingt hinter mir lassen wollte.Zu dem kalten, herzlosen Söldner.Ich benutze ... ich verrate ... und ich lüge.Alles, um sie in Sicherheit zu bringen.Für sie jagen wir.Für sie töten wir.Und wenn wir von Haelstom Hale zu einem Handel gezwungen werden, einem Vertrag für ein Leben ...tue ich das Einzige, was das wilde Bedürfnis, sie zu schützen, zulässt ...Ich schicke Macoy Daniels zurück zu Haelstom Hale ...In Stücken.

They're made of fire...and hunger.Three Dragon Lords hunting for an ancient bloodline...They came for my sister. But they left with me.I escaped the Vampires only to find my sister missing. Dragon Lords have come searching for an ancient bloodline, one that will save their dying race. I'd give anything to keep my sister safe. I'll fight who I have to.They look at me with hunger in their eyes.My name is Polaris and I'll run the first chance I get. I'll find my sister and we'll escape this Hell once and for all. I'll refuse to give into them and fight like an Alpha. No matter what things they'll do to me...if I'm caught.

Geheimnisse. Lügen. Verrat.Ich habe meinen Teil dazu beigetragen und alles riskiert, um sie zu retten.Meine Prinzessin ...Meine Ryth.Jetzt haben uns die Anführer des Ordens in die Enge getrieben.Und wir sind ihnen ausgeliefert.Nur ein Mann kann uns befreien.Der Mann, der die Wahrheit über diesen Ort kennt ...Ihr Vater.Es werden Deals gemacht, um uns zu befreien.Nur weiß sie nicht alles.Das wird sie aber bald ...Sie wird erwarten, dass meine Brüder vor den Toren stehen ...und warten ...Aber ich glaube nicht, dass sie das tun werden.Ich werde da sein und die Scherben aufsammeln.Ich werde dafür sorgen, dass sie in Sicherheit ist.Unsere kleine Maus. Unsere Prinzessin. Unsere ... Stiefschwester.
