Stefan Sabbioni showed up uninvited in my bedroom on my 16th birthday. He stood in the shadows, smelling of whiskey and death and wrapped a broken, blood-crusted necklace around my neck. I thought he’d strangle me with it.
That night, he left a message for my father. He said he’d be back to take something precious.
I never delivered that message, though. I wonder if things would be different if I had because now, two years later, he’s back. And he’s not hiding in any shadows.
He’s come to make good on his promise.
He’s back to take that something precious.
Me.
Stefan
Marchese is the manipulator of my family’s tragedy. I won’t just bring him to his knees. I’ll bury him for what he did.
Taking his daughter is only the beginning. I’ll do it, knowing I’m starting a war. I’ll do it, knowing my enemies will become his allies. They’ll stop at nothing to destroy me, and he’ll stop at nothing to get her back.
I’ve never shied away from war, though. I’m not one to play nice, and I don’t share my toys. I’ll demolish you if you touch what’s mine.
And she is most definitely mine."
"This set contains Taken & Torn: The Complete Story of Helena & Sebastian.
Taken
I’m one of four Willow daughters.
He’s the first-born son of the Scafoni family. And we have history.
For generations, the Scafoni family have demanded a sacrifice of us. A virgin daughter to atone for sins so old, we don’t even remember what they are anymore.
But when you have as much money as they do, you don’t play by the rules. You make them.
And Sebastian Scafoni makes all the rules.
The moment I saw him, I knew he would choose me. Even though the mark on my sheath declared me unclean. Even though my beautiful sisters stood beside me, offered to him, he still chose me.
He made me his.
And then he set out to break me.
Torn
I was always going to choose Helena. I knew it the instant I saw her.
She’s different than the others. There’s a darkness about her. Something wild inside her. And it calls to the beast inside me.
But she isn’t what I expect. With every word and every touch, she pushes me, burrows deep under my skin, challenging the rules, upending history.
And all the while, I see how my brother watches her. He wants her, and as the rules stand, she’ll become his in one year’s time.
Except that I have no intention of giving her up."

Twisted
My brother was right. I always wanted my own Willow Girl.
What happened on that island didn’t break me. It twisted me. Corrupted me. Made me into a monster. Although, I guess it’s true what she says. You can’t become something that wasn’t inside you all along.
This was always going to happen. I was always going to take Amelia Willow. History and destiny sealed her fate. For months, I’ve been waiting. Watching. Preparing.
And tonight, everything will change. Because tonight, I’ll collect my own Willow Girl."

My brother was right. I always wanted my own Willow girl.
What happened on that island didn’t break me. It twisted me. Corrupted me. Made me into a monster.
Although, I guess, it’s true what she says. You can’t become something that wasn’t inside you all along.
This was always going to happen. I was always going to take Amelia Willow. History and destiny sealed her fate. Sealed both of ours.
For months, I’ve been waiting. Watching. Preparing.
And tonight, everything will change. Because tonight, I’ll collect my own Willow girl.
Author’s note: Twisted is the final book in the Dark Legacy series. While Gregory's story is a stand-alone it is recommended you listen to Taken and Torn first."
"We're a match made in hell, Stefan and I.
He took me to exact his revenge. I went from being a pawn to my father to being a pawn to Stefan. The only difference is I have a ring the size of a boulder on my finger and a husband I don't want.
And the hardest part is I thought he was different. I thought I was falling in love.
I guess my father was right. I'm not a very smart girl.
Stefan is a powerful man. He doesn't play nice, not if you're his enemy. But I've learned one thing about my husband.
He takes care of what's his.
And I am his.
His enemies have become my enemies, but he'll never let anyone hurt me. He's fiercely protective. It's the predator inside that scares me."
