It’s you or him. Those were the words that broke me; turned me savage; made me lose myself, if even only for a brutal moment. … I had no choice. Blood drips from my chin, pooling in the crimson streams that flow over the stained cement below. Luca Tassotti’s corpse twitches at my feet. The light has gone from his eyes—and what little light remains in mine threatens to follow close behind... but not because I’m injured. Physically, I’m fine. My body may be on fire, but I got the better of the big Italian teenager. It’s my soul that really hurts. Sure, Luca was a cruel monster. A serial killer in the making. A terror to the maids of this mansion and a bully who got his kicks out of making me even more miserable than I already was, but I never thought of killing him, not seriously... not until I was thrown into this cellar and given that chilling ultimatum. It’s you or him. There was no mercy in the statement. Either I was going to turn into a killer or I was going to be killed. I couldn’t stand for the latter. My family was still out there somewhere, and the thought of leaving them behind before I could say my final goodbyes tore at my heart until I became the very animal I’ve been trying to fight back. If I was ever going to see anyone I loved again, I would have to survive this nightmare... and take Luca’s life. It didn’t matter that he had six years on me and almost a foot in height. The burly Italian was soft from his time spent above ground, on the main floor, being treated almost like a regular member of the D’Ignoti crime family. He may not have been blood-related to those who ran this organization, but he had Italian lineage and that meant, to them, he was more human than I’d ever be. But Luca was never grateful. While I was locked up like an Irish dog, he kept pushing his boundaries until he stepped over the line. One night, in a drunken fit, he went after the boss’s most prized whore. He cut her up so bad that they eventually had to pull the plug and put her out of her misery. Three days later, she was dead and Luca was screwed. First, it cost him a week in the hole. Then, it put him in front of me, in the cellar where they hold the dog fights. Whether this was supposed to be a lesson, a punishment or pure entertainment, it was hard to tell. Either way, our cruel captors crowded around us and placed their black bets. An eighteen-year-old Italian lug—weakened from seven nights in a dark cell—pitted against a wild twelve-year-old Irish kid. The smart money would have been on him. But I’ve been overcoming expectations my entire life. In the end, I was quicker. I was smarter. And I was far more desperate. Thoughts of my dad flashed through my mind as I side-stepped Luca’s heavy blows. Memories of play-fighting with my two younger brothers focused my swings and stifled my fear as we wrestled to the ground. Desire to see my mom again allowed me to take advantage of an opening. But my mind went blank as I tore Luca’s throat open with my teeth. Now, I’m numb. Too numb even for tears—as if I’d ever let them see me cry. All that occupies my mind is a dull ringing sound—that is, until a frigid hand falls on my shoulder and the devil’s wicked laugh breaks through the dead chill. “You did well, Brutus. Now, it’s time for your reward...” Cold grey clouds drift over the graveyard in the valley below. From my place on the hill, I recognize the shapes of my two younger brothers, Nolan and Shane. They shiver on either side of Dad, who has his head hung low and his hands clasped together in prayer. Despite their closeness, they each look as
