“Cristo,” my wife breathes out as my thrusts start to speed up, hitting every nerve ending inside her.
My beautiful Rosa’s gentle wails begin to grow louder as glorious light illuminates the sky above us, its thunderous noise camouflaging the ones she’s making riding my cock.
This.
This is as close as a devil like me will ever get to heaven.
And I’ll never be cast out of paradise again.
I’ll make sure of it.
I’ll burn everything to ashes before anyone dares to even think they can come for me and mine.
If the world trembled in fear of the Mafia Wars, then they should shudder in utter terror at what Colin, Shay, and I could do if anyone tries to steal our rose.
May God have mercy on whoever tries.
Because I’ll never give them any.
The End

Acknowledgments
I wrote The End to Binding Rose as the year 2021 was coming to its end.
And I, for one, was so ready to kick that year to the curb, wave it goodbye and sing it good riddance. “Don’t you ever come back, you hear?”
If you know me, either personally or on social media, you know that I’m the kind of person that prefers to look on the bright side of life and maintain a positive approach to everything.
But 2021 kicked me hard in the ass and made me reevaluate everything in my life.
I can honestly say that the middle to the end of the year, I have never experienced such crippling grief and fear—both as a mother and as an author. Certain events occurred—which I won’t go into detail since it has to do with my own private family life—that shocked me to my core and gave me a wake-up call that I never saw coming.
And because of it, I struggled putting pen to paper for months.
When I finally found some balance and my family obtained the help we so desperately needed, Rosa’s story just came at me like a tidal wave. I could either swim or drown in its waters, but one way or another, I would write her story.
And thank God, I did.
This story was unique and invigorating, breathing new life to me… and it dared me to hope again.
Now that’s a term I had lost sight of.
Hope.
That word may be small, but damn does it deliver a hell of a punch.
Hope is a powerful thing, and if you have that and love, well… there is no mountain that you can’t climb and no battle you can’t fight.
Thankfully, I have warriors standing beside me, that never let me lose focus of what’s truly important.
First, I would like to thank the lovely ladies that worked on this incredible world with me. Mafia Wars might be our brainchild but it is also the thing that brought us altogether so we could form an amazing friendship. To CR Jane, Katie Knight, Rebecca Royce, Loxley Savage, Susanne Valenti, and Caroline Peckham, thank you all for welcoming me with open arms and let me geek out when talking about all things mafia related. I adore you ladies!
