Dangerous Beauty: Part Three: This is War Read Online Free PDF

seventeen long years since she’d last let him touch her, Silas still remembered the feel of her body like it was yesterday. No woman had ever made him feel so powerful, so strong. He couldn’t wait to see her face when she realized that he’d saved their daughter from the attack. She would love him instantly and see how much he’d changed. How good of a man he’d become for her. Cecilia will love him, too. He wanted to share with her all of the good times they’d spent together, and apologize for all of the bad times. Then he would bring out the big gift.
    His son.
    Sighing, he sat up in his seat at the thought of his son. Hopefully this family reunion would be just the thing Silas needed to earn his son’s forgiveness. It had been two years since he had last laid eyes the boy, and Silas still felt remorse for his actions. Don’t get Silas wrong, he still felt a great bit of anger for his son’s betrayal, but he also regretted the way he’d handled the situation.
    Silas closed his eyes and clenched his jaw.
    It’d all started when his son began to resent him. After Silas had shown him favor and love for fifteen years of his life, his son decided to attempt to escape him. Just like his mother had. Just like Robbie had. Silas tried to do everything he could to please the boy, then Gabriel disappointed him greatly. After he’d run away, Silas had to chase the boy down and beat him into submission. He didn’t want to, but he had to. He needed to teach his son that he was one of a lucky few.
    After Silas had beaten him, he’d nursed him back to health. He’d had to explain to him how fortunate he was that he hadn’t been sold like the rest of the children. With features like a Stone, Silas could have made millions off of the boy, and his sister.
    Even though his son had hurt and disappointed him, Silas continued to love him. So instead of selling him off to the highest bidder, Silas had practiced mercy and thrown him in a nice, spacious basement. The place was clean, luxurious, and had what he needed to provide his son with the necessities to make him smart, keep him in good health, help him grow strong, and keep him entertained. He could give his son food, water, and all that he needed without the chance of him escaping. It was perfect. If Silas kept his son away from him, then there was no chance of him fucking things up with the boy any more than he’d already had. When Anastacia finally came back to him, he’d set his son free. Silas knew he could be a better father with Anastacia and Cecilia there. His perfect wife would teach him all he needed to know.
    “What’s taking them so long, Silas?”
    Silas looked up when Aziz spoke, then looked over to the house with a frown.
    “I don’t know,” he muttered. “But if they don’t hurry, my brother will bleed too much. That would be horrible for their families.”
    Just when Silas was about to instruct Aziz to get out of the car and go in, something unexpected happened that shocked both of them. The front door burst open, and Cecilia came running out with a backpack on her back and a frighteningly blank expression on her face. She was now dressed in jeans and a large T-shirt, and running with the speed of a track runner down the dark street.
    “We need to follow her!” Aziz said, nearly exiting the car before Silas gripped his arm.
    “No!” Silas yelled. “Let her go.”
    They sat until she was out of sight before Silas exited the car. He heard Aziz following behind him as they both ran for the house. Racing up the steps, Silas burst through the front door. When he walked in, he gasped at the sight before him. Robbie still sat peacefully in the chair he’d been left in, but there were now two men lying dead on each side of him.
    “Holy shit,” Aziz said. “Did she do this?”
    Silas nodded slowly. “I think so.”
    “What the fuck, Silas?”
    Frowning, Silas shook his head. “This is unexpected. I didn’t see it coming. It ruins my
