Malahai

I wanted her like hell, but my sparring partner’s sister was forbidden. But because I was a bastard, I didn't care at all, even if I should have. She was sweet and innocent, but I was a dirty asshole who couldn't get enough of women. She deserved better, but even knowing that, I couldn't help but go after her.

I won't even try to talk myself out of it.

I knew that I shouldn't have wanted him. He was brash, had a reputation that should have sent me running in a different direction, not a gift at all. But there was something inside me that was drawn to him. His bad boy image was like adding gasoline to the fire that was raging inside me. If I was smart, I would have left. But I wasn't smart when it came to Malachai. Staying around him will cause problems, especially if my brother, Rhodey, finds out, and I know that sooner or later it will. I have to ask myself if one night with Malachai was worth all the consequences that would follow.
