Forbidden Bastard Excerpt


FORBIDDEN BASTARD by Felicia Lynn is now live! 




Blurb:
I trust no one. 

Everything inside me screams not to trust her either.
I fight an internal war daily as my desire for her spreads like a wildfire through me -my cravings to protect her just as powerful as my need to taste her, touch her. Never has anyone held this kind of power over my need to rule, but I would risk my power in a heartbeat to have her.

Regardless of the cost, I will have her. I’ll sacrifice everything to ensure it. 

And, I’ll destroy anyone who stands in my way.


Excerpt:
Matteo was my best friendmy person. Hed been my armor since we were seven years old. Although many in the family speculated our relationship was more than a genuine friendship, as our bond grew tighter throughout the years. Without question, no one was more valuable to me than he was, but it wasnt what they thought. Thick as thieves, theyd joke. On that part, they were never wrong.

We were personality opposites in every single way, but I loved him deeply as one would cherish a pain in the ass sibling they adored, Id guess. As an only child, I wouldnt personally know, but Matteo wouldve, and Id bet everything I have that given the choice of his brother or me, Matteo and I wouldve stuck together. Its been us against the world from the start. I was the yin to his yang.

In my vulnerable years, when so many people vowed to be there for me, Matteo was the only one who proved it. Trustunquestionable. Loyaltyincontestable. He never gave me a reason to second-guess any of his motives or instructions, and when Id balk at his protective bossiness, he didnt give up. He wanted what was best for me, and as hard as it is to admit, being a guy in the family gave him the upper hand. He knew, heard, and saw more just because he was born with a penis, and as a girl, I was expected to be oblivious to the world around us. Im sure they believe thats the case, but theyre wrong. Matteo told me everything. Secrets were our hard limit.

Matteo has never let me down on any of his promises. Thats why I refuse to believe he willingly broke the most important rule of all. He couldnt, and he wouldnt. It was the foundation of who we were. I dont have a clue where to begin to move on in a life without him. He promised to always be here for me. He wouldnt turn his back on that.

Biting hard on my lip, I attempt to swallow back the sounds of my heartbreak until my lip forms a pulse from the assault of my teeth. The tears slowly trailing down my cheeks do so little to cloud the view of reality in front of me. Im smothering in this agony I cant emotionally fathom as real, and even though I know the result cant be disputed, someone is hiding the real story in the tunnel of dark secrets. Matteo isnt here to shield me from this, and regardless of how many calming breaths I take, nothing can change the torment of his absence. The life Id imagined had so much more promise, but false hope is a bitch. I dont understand, but at the same time, deep down I know the truth. Not everything is as it seems.
