A Marriage Fit For A Sinner. Maya Blake

      

       One eyebrow spiked. ‘You seem so confident I’m going to hand myself to you on a silver platter. Isn’t that a tad foolish?’

      There was that tone again—the one that said she didn’t believe him. That she thought this was some sort of twisted game on his part.

      ‘I guess we’ll find out one way or the other when the sordid details are laid out for you on Monday. All you need to concern yourself about today is picking out an engagement ring that makes the right statement.’

      Eva’s striking green eyes clashed with his and that lightning bolt struck again. ‘And what statement would that be?’ she challenged.

      Zaccheo let loose the chilling half-smile that he knew made his enemies quake. ‘Why, that you belong to me, of course.’

       CHAPTER ONE

      ‘ONE PLATINUM CHRONOGRAPH WATCH. A pair of diamond-studded cufflinks. Gold signet ring. Six hundred and twenty-five pounds cash, and...Obsidian Privilege Card. Right, I think that’s everything, sir. Sign here to confirm return of your property.’

      Zaccheo Giordano didn’t react to the warden’s sneer as he scrawled on the barely legible form. Nor did he react to the resentful envy in the man’s eyes when his gaze drifted to where the sleek silver limousine waited beyond three sets of barbed wire.

      Romeo Brunetti, Zaccheo’s second-in-command and the only person he would consider draping the term friend upon, stood beside the car, brooding and unsmiling, totally unruffled by the armed guard at the gate or the bleak South East England surroundings.

      Had Zaccheo been in an accommodating mood, he’d have cracked a smile.

      But he wasn’t in an accommodating mood. He hadn’t been for a very long time. Fourteen months, two weeks, four days and nine hours to be exact. Zaccheo was positive he could count down to the last second if required.

      No one would require it of him, of course.
