Eden scrunches up his nose. “What’s that?”

“A delivery.” D’Angelo sounds wary. “One that we weren’t expected. This is from the top jeweler in Virginia. It’s my favorite for buying cuff links. This is meant to be a surprise, huh?”

Robyn is frozen.

I have a horrible feeling that D’Angelo is not going to get the surprise that he’s expecting.

“Don’t,” I warn.

D’Angelo opens the bag and pulls out a small, luxurious velvet box. It’s the same blue as his eyes.

My stomach twists.

Who bought him this?

D’Angelo’s eyes light up. He flips open the box.

Inside is a pair of cuff links in ruby that are shaped like devil horns.

They’re gorgeous. I have no idea how much they cost.

A lot.

Probably more than I’ve earned in my entire life.

D’Angelo smiles. “I love them, principessa. Are they for the Halloween party?”

Robyn pales. “I didn’t…”

Eden stands, on the alert. He looks as tense as I am.

“Wait, you had them print a beautiful note on the lid of the box.” D’Angelo strolls to the window, holding the box up to thelight. It gleams off the ruby of the horns. Then he starts to read, “For my prince of devils…”

D’Angelo trails off.

He looks like he’s been punched in the gut. Then he hurls the cuff link box against the wall with a bang.

Eden strides to D’Angelo and wraps his arms around him.

I can’t hold myself back.

What the hell does the note say that’s disturbed D’Angelo?

“I didn’t buy you those cuff links,” Robyn says. “I’m guessing that none of us did.”

I throw the quilt off and jump out of the bed.

My pulse races.

I snatch up the box and scan the note:

For my prince of devils. Let me be your corrupted angel. Wear these and think of me. XXX
