Leo's POV I knew I was crossing boundaries by involving Viktor 's little brother—the one he'd hidden away in some godforsaken orphanage like a dirty secret. But Viktor had crossed boundaries first when he torched my club. When he put a gun to my wife's head and when he threatened to kill Alessia and forced me to hand over the white book like some pathetic, neutered dog. So f**k boundaries and f**k rules. f**k everything Viktor thought he knew about power. The first time Viktor mentioned having a foster brother, back when we were still in games, still pretending to be allies instead of enemies circling each other like sharks….something hadn't added up. The way his jaw tightened when he said it. So I'd started digging and started visiting the boy in secret, bringing him books and food
