    Dakota watched him without a trace of sympathy."I can help you," Samuel rushed on. "Whatever you need. Information, contacts—anything."His words tumbled over one another in his desperation."I'll work for you. I'll make up for everything."Dakota didn't even consider it.With a sharp kick, she knocked him backward. Samuel hit the dirt hard and stared up at her in disbelief."The day you betrayed my family," she said coldly, "you made your choice."The words seemed to hit him harder than the kick.For a moment, he simply knelt there, panic written all over his face. Then his gaze landed on Ava, and something desperate sparked in his eyes.He scrambled toward her wheelchair."Miss Ava."His voice softened into a plea as he grabbed the armrest."You remember me, don't you?

    Blackridge Hill.The moment Dakota stepped out of the car, she broke into a run.An abandoned cabin stood near the cliff's edge, surrounded by a dozen men dressed in black. Above them, two small figures hung from the roof by thick ropes.Liam and Ava.The wind whipped around their bodies, making them sway dangerously over the drop.For a heartbeat, Dakota couldn't breathe.Then rage took over.A man stepped away from the crowd with a grin."About time you showed up."Dakota recognized him immediately. Victor Hayes, one of Sean Mercer's most trusted enforcers, was a violent thug whose reputation had been built on extortion, trafficking, and illegal gambling.She stopped several yards away."What do you want?"Victor spat into the dirt."Cut the crap.

    Shock rippled through the ballroom.Sophie's face turned deathly pale.Why was Nathan Drakov involved with Dakota?Although most people in Kingsland didn't fully understand Nathan's true background, everyone knew that Sean Mercer treated him like royalty. That alone made him untouchable.The women who had been mocking Dakota moments ago instantly lost color in their faces. One by one, they awkwardly disappeared into the crowd.Nathan lowered his head slightly toward Dakota."So obedient tonight?"Dakota froze briefly before realizing he was referring to the fact that she had actually shown up as his date.Her expression immediately cooled."Don't flatter yourself."Nearby, Sophie nearly bit through her teeth in jealousy.Unbelievable.Dakota had already hooked Chief Adjutant Reid, and now she was seducing Nathan Drakov too?Suppressing her hatred, Sophie forced an innocent smile."Dakot

    Richard and Melissa Lancaster were practically giddy with excitement.Neither of them noticed the dangerous look that had settled over Chief Adjutant Reid's face."You little bitch." Richard jabbed a finger at Dakota. "Get on your knees and break your own legs, and maybe I'll let you live."Melissa scoffed. "Let her live? Someone like her deserves to be skinned alive before she ruins anyone else's life—"She never finished.BANG!.Reid moved.One second he was standing there.
