Chapter 49 Admitting My Sins

• Prince POV
• I’ve done a lot of fucked-up things, but even I know what I did to Marcello was a step too far. Soldiers, guards, Capos—they were different. Torturing them was part of the game. But family? That crossed a line. And Marcello? Even I have to admit, it was personal, and it was fucked up.
• “Marcello was the only one who knew,” Ghost says quietly, breaking the silence. His voice is calm, but there’s a rawness to it that cuts through me. I meet his gaze, unsure where he’s going with this. “About me. About men. Actually, his place was where I often ended up taking them. He knew how my father worked. Knew what I was dealing with. And he was... my father’s ideal heir.”
