I'm caged. My heart and soul locked away, and he holds the single key.

"We'll be together again, and when that time comes, I'll make it so she can never escape me."

Our gazes collide. It's a cosmic affair. I forget how to breathe, and that he is the villain in my fairytale.

I want him to teach me a lesson.

"You'll crawl to me while I hold onto the belt."

"I don't know how you could never deny what we have or share. Not when the evidence is dripping down your thighs, and you're mewling like a cat in heat for me to take you harder."

His need to claim me is just as strong as my need to be claimed.

"Love me or hate me, it doesn't matter. We belong together."

"Are you trying to convince me that what we have isn't real or are you trying to convince yourself?"

I stiffen at the touch of his free hand against my thigh. Oh, yes, this is what I need. This is what I've missed most. His touch--skillful, knowing, like my body was made to bend for him.

There isn't enough coffee in the world to make me feel human this morning, yet something tells me we are both going to need it.

I always did like getting a gold star, which is probably why I would be drawn to a man like Callum.

For as long as I can remember, before I knew the specifics of his life and work, I sensed an aura of danger around him. Even now, I can't put a finger on it. The particular light in his eyes; the way he carries himself. He could change the temperature in the room with a single look. He has the power with just the lift of an eyebrow or the tip of his head to the side, and everyone around him falls in line. There's something sexy about that. It draws me to him.

Callum never does anything without a motive.

If I want answers, there might be only one way to get them. 

I might have to dig for the truth on my own.

There's the option of taking her anyway and keeping her tied to my bed until she promises she'll never leave.

My Review
5 Stars
EMPIRE OF LIES BY JL BECK is book Two in the Torrio Empire Trilogy. This continues the story of Bianca and Callum. This book does pick up where we left off in the first book 'Empire Of Lust'. So, you will need to read that book to fully understand Callum and Bianca. Bianca has taken off leaving Callum wanting her back and he will stop at nothing to achieve that goal it would seem. This book does end setting us up for the next installment in their story. I can't wait....loving this trilogy.
