Antonio scoffed at my words before replying, "As my brother said the other day, we've been at war with the Morellos for years now."

I turned in my seat, determined to get my point across. "If I don't go back, Mato won't stop until he's destroyed everyone I love."

"But this isn't about you, Layla. It's about Daniel. About us. It's never been about you. You are just a pawn he's using to put our family in checkmate. It's Daniel they want to destroy. It's our family they want to wipe out. Even if you go back and give your life in order to stop all of this, it won't. It will never stop."
