Leaving was liberating, but he had also left Eleonora, his only childhood friend. Now more than two decades later, she needs his help; he might be as ruthless as his kin, but he is fair, and if there is one woman Bruno liked more than anyone else in the world, it was her. He has no choice but to confront the past, and in so doing, he must face the very same people who pushed him out of his home.

He stood behind me, his hands stroking my arms and his breath on my face. "You looked beautiful on that runway. Red agrees with you," His whispers on my ear threw sensations through my whole body. I was trembling, conscious of every part of my body as he stood behind me, his presence heightening my pleasure. He was seducing me, and I knew it. His power surrounded me like a second skin. "You have to stop running from me, haven't you learned that by now?" He informed me in a deep drawl. That arrogance assurance caused me to turn around, coming face to face with him for the third time in my life. "Why can't I shake you?" "Because I'm unshakable," He drawled again.

Completed on 24/09/2018 Tell me who hurt you?" It was a command. I could have been afraid and probably told the whole of my traumatic childhood but I shook my head. There was no way I was telling him my darkest secrets. "I will find out..I always find out cara" he mumbled. But I doubted even he could guess my father was responsible for my nightmares. He stared at me, and I stared right back at him. "You have freckles" I whispered lifting my right hand to touch his face. "Do I?" His voice was husky. He turned his face slightly towards my hand noting the taut set of his bold profile. His jaw was set granite hard, but his eyes turned soft. He leaned closer hesitating for a second. I knew he was giving me a chance to avoid his kiss.

Now we just have to rescue them.... From themselves and those who seek to destroy them and us. May the odds be in our opposer's favor..... Because it's always in ours.
