She's got a beautiful life.
I'll gladly burn it down to save her.

She's been a thorn in my side for as long as I can remember—Belle Barrie.
With a smile that shows a sweet disposition.
And a body that invites total depravity.

Belle thought she knew my world.
Thought she could play with the big dogs.
When her boss decides to play me, she's caught in the crossfire.

Now we're talking about a full-fledged gang war.
The kind that mows down innocent bystanders.

Her life as the bargaining chip.

Everyone knows I'm ruthless.
I'm a cold-hearted killer.
My rise through the family is followed by a trail of bodies.
Yeah, some are women.
The ones who thought they could trust me.
They paid for that mistake with their lives.

Now, there's just one more debt to pay in blood.
I need to be the monster I am.
Not the man I want to be for her.
If I win, I'll have everything I ever dreamed of.
But if I do that, Belle will die.

And I'll lose the only woman I've ever loved.
