The thief stole from the devil. The Priest made her beg for mercy.
Raven Wolfe made one mistake: stealing a priceless Byzantine cross from Konstantin Krov’s private collection. Now the head of the Krov Staya—the brutal Russian syndicate known as the Blood Pack—wants her dead, and he’s willing to bleed her slowly to get his property back.
Wounded and desperate, she seeks sanctuary in an abandoned church. Instead, she finds Marco “Priest” Moretti disposing of a body.
Marco earned his nickname by hearing confessions before he kills. He’s the Moretti family’s cleaner—the one who makes problems disappear without a trace. He should eliminate Raven. She’s a witness. A thief. A liability.
But the beautiful criminal bleeding on his church floor makes him want to commit sins of his own.
His deal is simple: confess everything, and he’ll keep her alive. Her body for protection. Her truth for sanctuary. Her submission for survival.
What starts as confession becomes obsession. Penance becomes pleasure. And the abandoned church becomes their altar of sin.
But Konstantin Krov doesn’t forgive theft. And Marco won’t let anyone take what’s his—even if claiming her starts a war that burns Seattle to the ground.
A dark mafia romance featuring a morally gray anti-hero, and a possessive “hero” who’ll paint the streets red before he lets her go. Second in the Kings of Seattle series.
