Eyes of Stone

He’s cold, conniving… and my new captor after raining hellfire down on the jazz club I called home.

And when I find the barrel of his gun pointed at me, I’m left with an impossible choice. I know that in the end, I’ll be a casualty of his wicked games either way, but which list I find myself on is a decision he leaves in my hands. Die on the floor of this seedy club or agree to masquerade as the woman who has tamed him. Death would have been the easy choice.
