Blood and Roses (Tainted Hearts 3.5)

Maria



I was trapped. There was nothing left of me.

Then he came and wanted to make me his.

He saved me. He gave me a home, a family.

He made sweet love to me.

I was his Angel. He was my everything.

I thought we would live happily ever after, but there are no happy endings in the mafia life.

I found this out the hard way, as the blood flowed, red as roses…

Angel. The word meant nothing until I saw her.

I found her in a place worse than hell. She calls me her savior.

But I didn’t save her. I captured the pretty angel and made her mine.

Life was perfect. I had everything I wanted.

I was her salvation. She was my redemption.

Until I lost her.

Angels deserve happy endings, but monsters like me don’t.

My darkness became hers, and our happily-ever-after became tainted.
