Gilded Cage Duet

I thought I could wash the blood off my hands. I was wrong.Six months ago, I burned my empire to the ground to save Cleo Hart. I traded power for peace, replacing my suits with soil and my gun with her hand in mine. We thought we were safe in the hills of Tuscany. We thought the ghosts of London couldn't swim.But you can't kill a beast without consequences.When a ghost from my past tracks us down and shatters our sanctuary, I realize the truth: Monsters don't get to retire.Now, we are on the run. To survive, we must go back to the place where it all began. London is no longer my city-it's a war zone ruled by the vultures feeding on the corpse of my company. To protect Cleo, I have to stop being the man she loves and become the devil she feared.I have to rebuild my kingdom from the ashes. And God help anyone who stands in my way.Peace was a dream. War is my reality.
