The Baron's Pet

“I fell in love with a murderer. And not just that. He was the most notorious crime lord in the whole country - a kidnapper, robber, con artist. Donovan Valerio Barone was that, and more. He smiled when he caused me pain, but killed whoever looked at me twice. I was his captive, but in many ways than one, I was enslaved by my desires, and by the circumstances that surrounded our meeting. Everyone in the city knew The Baron was as handsome as he was vicious and ruthless. No one crossed him and lived to tell of it. No one but me. And in return, he owned me, body and soul. I had thought my life would be like a puppet's, but when Donovan smiled, in his eyes was the promise to burn the world down for me, and hold me in his arms while doing it.”
