Excerpt:
Originally he'd planned on tormenting the couple together. Maybe start with something causing severe pain. It might be fun to force them to watch one another be tormented. Because Javier hadn't been one of the planners of the theft, he had been going to let the man live. Now he was not so sure. Not after he'd met Olivia and witnessed her reactions to her husband's utter stupidity. Javid wasn't completely sure she even liked her husband. Did she love him? Maybe, in a way, but she had past the point where she would do anything for him. And from what Javid had researched, Javier didn't deserve her like...or her love. What he was seeing was more than bravery. This was a survivor. All she needed was a little help and she would be hell on wheels. For some reason he wanted to see that. The thought of an Olivia who was in charge of life, unbound by a man who was beneath her made him hard. That was the kind of woman a man kept.

That was it. He was going to take her away from the man who didn't deserve her. And Javid was going to make her husband watch her break free. Being married at fifteen, there was no way Olivia had fully lived, not with Javier by her side. Javid would show her pleasure unlike any she'd ever known; in food, in drink, in travel. Clothing, jewels, but most especially in all things sexual. By the time he was done, Olivia would be so far beyond her husband he would never be able to reach her. The cherry on top was that he would have to watch it unfold before his eyes.
