Blame It on the Shame (Blame It on the Shame: Lou-Lou and Ricardo's Story #1) (35 page)

I just didn't realize how special.

Lucianna
should
have been the mother of my son. There's no doubt in my mind, that
our
son would be the most powerful DeLuca yet.

Even more powerful than me.

So powerful, it would erase the humiliation Ricardo has inflicted and poisoned my legacy with.

I eagerly await the day that I'll be able to go against the DeLuca council and kill him...right after killing those two pissants he calls 'brothers.'

Fuck, I may just do that anyway...but first; I have to ensure the prophet was telling the truth about my Lucianna.

And in order to do that—I need to enlist the help of the ancestors of the witches who first put the curse on my family.

Unfortunately, they're being less than cooperative—which is why I intend to start killing them off...one by one...until they have no choice but to help me.

After that, I'll approach the DeLuca council with my plan and there won't be a goddamned thing they can do about it...because I'm the one who found a way to undo the hex.

I ignore the sounds of Marlene choking as I come down her throat all while picturing my Lucianna carrying the next DeLuca son—the son who will
replace
the one I have now.

The prophet's words echo in my head and I feel my new found power wash over me.

 


Your dark-haired beauty called Lucianna is the key to lifting the DeLuca curse

but be forewarned; her power poses a great threat to you

for your darkness will be passed along to your offspring.

 

I'm counting on it.

 

About the Author

 

If you liked the book, it would mean the absolute
world
to me if you left a
review
. It’s so hard for indie author’s to receive acknowledgment and reviews
really
make a difference for us.

 

But even
more
than that…I
urge
you to read the message on the next page.

 

 

I'm a lover of psychology, romance, erotica, dark romance, dark erotica, and anything thought provoking...except for math. I've always read books growing up, and after having a strange dream one night; I decided to just go for it and publish my first series. 
Little did I know, I would end up falling head over heels in love with writing. 
If I'm not researching, paying off student loan debt, or writing a novel- you can usually find me watching my favorite series on Netflix, stealing my fiances t-shirts, or pondering the meaning of life. 
Check my page for future novels.
Also, feel free to start a discussion board/or leave a review if you're so inclined. 
I value and appreciate all my fans reviews, thoughts, and discussions, as well as their time. Each and every single one of you are important to me. 
Thanks for believing in me and giving me a shot. It has meant more to me than you'll ever know. 
~ Happy Reading ~

Acknowledgements

 

Each and every one of you are so important to me and there will never be a good enough way to thank you for all the support and generosity you've shown me. A simple acknowledgment in a book doesn't do it justice, but I hope it matters all the same.

Even though I'm an- 'indie author', you all still support me and I'm so incredibly humbled and grateful for each and every one of you.

And truly, I thank you all from the bottom of my heart and the depths of my soul.
