Stealing Beauty

Valentina hates me. That doesn't stop me from kidnapping her, stealing her away for myself.

She was brought into my home when we were teenagers, her virgin body sold to my father to pay a debt. She became the only light in my dark criminal underworld, and I couldn't help loving her.

Now, ten years have separated us, and I've established my reputation as the most notorious, sadistic drug lord on the west coast. I don't care if she's grown to hate me. I'm finally powerful enough to claim Valentina for myself, and no one can stop me.

A decade hasn't dulled my obsessive need for her. I'll kill anyone who tries to take her from me.

Valentina was always meant to be mine. Nothing will stop me from possessing her, body and soul.
