The Commission has sent Azrael, their deadliest assassins, not knowing that a monster already prowls the streets of New York City. Ivan Romanov.



After years of waiting patiently in the shadows, I've finally come to claim what is mine. And that prize is Viviana Valachi, the youngest daughter of the Valachi Don. She is timid and obedient, everything her father raised her to be. But there is a fire in those Valachi eyes that is matched only by her brother, whom I hold captive.



Azrael is on the move. No place or person is safe, even those I keep in golden cages.
