Darkest Sins: An Age Gap Mafia Romance

There is a limit to how much shit someone can take before calling it quits and checking out of this world. That night, just moments before the girl found me, I realized that I had my fill.
As I sat on the ground in that alley and watched the dark sky above, I decided to make my next job the final act of my life.

So, I closed my eyes and imagined the bliss of just . . . not existing. Only to have my reverie and visions of finally being free interrupted by a silly girl.

And here I am now. Still alive and breathing. Previously, I didn’t much care if I completed my assignments and came out alive or in a body bag. But I do now. How could I watch over my girl if I’m dead? The night she tied her scarf around my thigh and then offered me her hand, my life became hers.

And I will not allow a potential threat to live anywhere near my tiger cub

But I want to give her something. More than a kiss on her hand. I’ve actually never kissed anyone or anything before. I don’t have much to offer, so that night, I gave her what I had. A kiss for the hand that treated my wound with such care.

But, I can also give her safety.
