KADIA CLUB NIGHTS

COME A LITTLE CLOSER
There has only ever been one guarantee in my life.
Death.
I’ve seen it take everyone I care about and then some. That’s why I left my old life behind and handed my loyalty to those at Kadia, the nightclub of sin and freedom in New York City.
I should have known better.
I should have known my demons would catch up with me.
The dominos begin to fall with the appearance of five armed Russians who know the dark corners of my old reputation. But nothing is as it seems, and they lead me to an old employer who needs a favor—and who still keeps his daughter under lock and key for her own protection.
Tatiana Ivanov.
Without her, I might not have any reason to keep fighting. Without her, I might have been content to watch them all burn. They deserved it. She did not.
If I have to die for something, it might as well be for her.

STAY A LITTLE LONGER
My days and nights are bleeding into each other.
And unfortunately, my mistakes from the past are catching up.
I had a life. A long time ago.
A wife. A business. A future.
But she decided she wanted someone else. Someone a little less rough natured.
Anger has started to consume my heart and my mind, but it is what it is.
There’s no way out.
Until she shows up. And the little saucy thing won’t take no for an answer.
She’s softening my edges and making me want things I’d long given up on.
I have no right to fall in love with a woman so pure.
And something is off at Kadia. I can feel it.
Dangerous people have always been a part of my life, but maybe it’s time for a change.
I don’t want to let this woman go, even though it’s the best thing to do.
I’d much rather she stay a little longer.

DON'T GO SO SOON
