The Deathless King

A Dark Mafia Romance

De: Lauren Kennedy

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

I remember everything now.

The alley. The rain. The lullaby he hummed while he broke me. And the tattoo on his wrist—the Tierney family crest.

The monster who destroyed me was one of them.

When I told Cormac, something behind his eyes went dark. Not angry. Lethal.

"Which one?" His hand wrapped around my throat—not to hurt. To anchor. To claim. "Tell me which of my brothers touched you, Alice. Tell me who I have to kill."

But it wasn't any of his brothers. It was worse. A fifth son. Hidden. Denied. A ghost with Tierney blood and twenty years of rage who murdered my parents and left me bleeding in an alley because I was a loose end.

Now he's coming to finish what he started. And Cormac's father—the man who hid this monster for decades—just gave him permission.

Finish it.

I should run. Should disappear. Should put as much distance as possible between myself and the man whose family destroyed mine.

Instead, I'm learning their secrets. Mapping their weaknesses. Playing a game I was never supposed to survive.

They think I'm broken. Fragile. A victim too traumatized to be dangerous.

They're wrong.

And somewhere between the lies and the violence, I ended up in his bed. In his arms. In so deep I can't tell where the danger ends and the desire begins.

Cormac kills without hesitation. Protects without mercy. Touches me like I'm the first thing he's wanted in eighteen years of ice.

"You're mine," he says, and it sounds like a threat. Like a promise. Like the last words I'll ever need to hear.

But I have secrets of my own. A burner phone. A network. Intel that could save his empire or destroy it.

There's a traitor in the Brotherhood. A monster in the shadows. And a man who will burn everything to keep me breathing—if he doesn't kill me first when he learns what I've been hiding.

I survived one devil at sixteen.

I'm about to find out if I can survive becoming one myself.
