Wildflower (The Capriani Chronicles #1)

Wildflower

I never believed in fairytales I thought it was all some stupid waste of time fantasy. At some point reality is going to crash in on your illusion, then what? Somehow I found myself in a strange whirlwind of a romance. You would think that going in with my eyes open to reality and not the fantasy would make some difference. But like some silly singing princess dreaming of true love's kiss and waiting for her prince to come I had no idea what I was getting myself into. They say if you dance with the devil, the devil doesn't change, he changes you. I'm starting to think it's true. And just like some fairytale prince he doesn't ever plan on letting me go...

You hear about single moments that seem insignificant at the time but later turn into something else. One night free from the shackles of obligation and family was all I wanted. What I found was her. I wasn't looking yet there she stood in the most unlikely of places. It wasn't supposed to be anything or mean anything. I never learned what love was. I didn't believe in anything as ridiculous as love at first sight. Or fate. I made my own fate, took my own destiny into my hands. Nobody will ever plan my life out for me again. If I was a better person a better man I would have let her go. But I'm no saint and I come from a family of sinners We take what we want and I wanted her She was the light to my dark, so full of life and I was addicted to her I will make her my queen and she will be mine forever First I just have to help her unlock her true potential Nothing and noone will stand in my way it's unacceptable
There are rumors about my family and the things we get into and get away with. Nobody ever knows quite what to believe. Truth is they couldn't possibly even guess the half of it I know the secrets and where the bodies are buried, literally and figuratively I know I should let her go, save her and protect her from the truth of it I'm a sinner and never a saint and I always get what I want
