–

I didn’t know what David planned to do to Ella, but I knew wouldn’t have been good. He was obsessed with her power, her position. To him, Ella was just a pawn. And I had no doubt David wouldn’t hesitate to break his toys if it suited his twisted agenda.

David’s connections to the Rogues were relatively new, according to my sources. He must have thought manipulating Ella would be easy, and in his desperation after losing control of her, he began reaching out to less- than–reputable friends to help fix what he had screwed up.

But it clearly wasn’t working for him. He was too brash and arrogant to navigate the criminal underworld. If he kept pushing his luck, he was going to get himself killed messing with the wrong people.

It took a cold, calculating person to survive with one foot in civilized society and the other in the underworld. David lacked both the intelligence and the level–headedness to pull it off. That only made him more dangerous to Ella.

And then there was Amanda. She seemed to have an even darker side than David. She’d been laying low since the wedding, and I couldn’t blame her.
