"I know I killed a close friend of yours but I'll be honest and say, I'm in with love you. Lucius will probably try to kill me, Nate and Dante would never accept me, Cesar will torture me if he catches me, and I don't think you'd ever forgive me either, but you know what?" He shrugged his shoulders as he reached for Charles' jaw, tilting his head to the side and examining his quivering blue eyes that resembled his father's way too much. His thumb slid across the tape over Charles' lips that were sealed shut underneath. "I don't care if I need to hide underground in a bunker for the rest of my life, I want to be with you and I'm not going to let any of them stop me, and that includes yourself. So how about you stop fighting those restraints and kiss me the same way you did last night, remember?" Nineteen-year-old Charles Kennedy never thought his life would be thrown in such turmoil. He tried to live a normal life with his fathers, Dante and Nate Kennedy, but it was kind of hard when his best friend, Natalia Hercules, Lucius' Hercules daughter, was always involved in some shady missions, regardless of her father's rules. However, he never thought that one of them would be killed by the leader of a powerful upcoming troop. Even worse, he never thought that leader would fall in love with him? And what happens when he falls in love back? Does he choose his family or his soulmate? How is he supposed to avenge the death of his family friend when it's the love of his life that he needs to kill?
