Darkest Deeds

No one is innocent in the eyes of Les Cavaliers de l'ombre.
If your name ends up on my list, your time is up.
No regrets. No mercy. No conscience.
Until the enemy becomes my darkest obsession.

Two days ago, I paid a price to fulfill a vendetta.
Twenty minutes ago, I threw it all away.
I came to take her life but claimed it instead.
Now the proud Bratva princess is bound to a monster and chained to the past.

But greed has consequences, and mine just turned an unpaid debt into a game of survival.
I warn my pchelka not to rely on men with sin on their lips and ice in their veins.
She cautions me not to be deceived by my own eyes.
Neither of us listens.

Eight years ago, I trusted Ava with my heart.
Eight minutes ago, she trusted me with her life.
We all make mistakes.
