Why did I let her go? I can't answer that. How do you expect me to answer that when I don't even know? I'm the Skull King. I never let anyone go. When I see her at the bar six weeks later, she's still the feisty handful that I remember. She owns the room in that tight dress and that fire....

Joseph Ingram made the mistake of stealing from me - four million dollars. He took my intelligence without paying for it. And thought he could get away with it. Think again. Now I’ll take something from him - something irreplaceable. His sister. Collateral....

I was 21 when the gypsy read my future: As punishment for your crimes, you will only love one woman...but she'll never love you back. I didn't believe a word of it. Until I met Sofia Romano almost 10 years later....

I never broke the curse...I just changed it. Now I’m forced into a partnership with Maddox, and since I can’t kill him, I have to tolerate him every day. So Sofia leaves me. I’ve sacrificed everything for her, but it’s never enough....

She’s gone. But the fortune can’t be true because she means nothing to me. Nothing at all. But the doubt starts to creep in....

The more I fall for Crow, the more I want him to do the things that I want. Dinners, dates, and evenings at the beach....

I'm Vanessa Barsetti, the daughter of the infamous Crow Barsetti. My father taught me how to fight. If a man touches me, I'll put him in his grave. As a Barsetti, I'm proud, stubborn, and don't take nonsense. I walk home from a bar and take the wrong path. And witness a brutal crime....
