Love is the deadliest lie...

I never meant to start a war...
Then I fell for the boy my mother warned me about.
To me, he was Matty.
To the world, he was Mateo Cortes...
Soulless killer for the Carrera Cartel.

We were the virgin and the villain.
The debutante and the devil.
He swore we'd end in ruin.
I swore love would conquer all.
I was wrong.

One costly mistake and I'm given thirty seconds to decide my fate...
Inmate or informer.
Four years ago, I ran for my life.
Now, I've returned to claim it.

My devil will come for me...
And God help anyone who gets in his way.
