STARDUST DESTINY




STARDUST DESTINY by Nazarea Andrews

EXCERPT


Everyone thinks I’m crazy, and they’re right. I am. They think I’m fragile, and that one wrong touch will send me into a million pieces.
But that’s where they’re wrong. I’ve already broken into a million pieces. And if I’m not very careful, I will bleed out on those broken shards of the girl I was.
Focus. I take a deep breath, and release it, slowly.
“What does Cassio inherit?”
Zander stares at me, as if startled by the sudden switch, and I flash a desperate smile.
“I can’t talk about it, Uncle Z. Not yet.” I shrug, lightly. “Maybe I’ll never be ready to talk about what happened there. But right now? I can’t.”
I’m begging, wordlessly, and he stares at me for a long moment before he sighs. And relents.
“Cassio will inherit a division—a profitable one, but only that. Anything more that he has, is given to him by you.”
“He always said that you made me heir because you couldn’t make him.” I hesitate and then, “he also said that I need him because you never meant for me to run the Cosca alone.”  
Zander nods. “I know.”
I wait, for him to agree. Or disagree. Anything but the quiet waiting in my uncle.
“You aren’t going to tell me what to do, are you?” I say, faintly accusing.
“The Orsi are mine—for now. But they will be yours. Very soon. So no—I won’t. What happens under your control. Who you allow to aide—or replace—you is your choice.” He smiles at me, a teasing smile that has always been meant safety. “The question, really, is what do you want?”
“I want to be equal,” I spit. Lean forward and snatch up his half empty wine glass and drain it. Orsi red, thick and bitter, hits my stomach hard, and I blink at him. “If I am the pretty fucking prize, the damn bitch who bought peace, I want to be an equal. Callan and Cassio would use me and then make me a pretty toy on his arm. Fuck that,” I snarl. “I don’t want to be a damn accessory.”
Uncle Zander’s eyes gleam. “Then do something to change the role they would put you in, Ileana.”

BLURB: 

The face that launched a thousand ships...

I grew up knowing my destiny. Daddy pounded it in my head, my brother repeated it every day of my life. I was the only daughter of the Orsi crime syndicate, the pretty prize that would bring peace. My one job was to marry Callum Sheehan, the vicious head of the Irish mob in Chicago.
I never questioned my future–until I saw him.

The man who was never meant to love her…

I wasn’t going to the wedding. It’s shit that my brother does, things our father requires of the heir of the Sosa cartel. Not me. I’m the black sheep, the one Mama spoiled, and my father loves, but without the pressure of expectation. But Sheehan is too big a deal for me to blow off.
And then I see her.

The love that started a war…

She isn’t mine. She will never be mine. I watch her fall apart when she thinks no one is watching. I watch her marry another man. I watch her bravery. And I don’t care who she belongs to or that it will start a war between our families.
I will damn us both to possess her, and burn down the world to keep her.

A modern erotic retelling of Helen of Troy, and the epic love that brought an empire to its knees.
