un tirano. Cualquiera que tenga la desgracia de molestar a George Lynch debe saber que sus días están contados. Yo soy el arma en su funda, al que manda para encargarse de sus 'problemas'. Al que usa para no ensuciarse las manos. George me salvó de una vida de crimen que me hubiera llevado a la cárcel. Ahora cometo crímenes mucho peores por los que me darían la sentencia de muerte si me atraparan. George me tiene en sus manos. Supongo que los dos tenemos suerte de que no me canse de matar. Por eso no entiendo por qué me ha asignado este pequeño proyecto. Secuestrar a una chica y mantenerla encerrada en una de sus casas con todas las comodidades, como una mascota mimada. Se suponía que era un trabajo fácil. Kendall debía ser como un ratoncito obediente. Pensé que obedecería todas mis órdenes. Estaba equivocado. Ahora estoy en un problema que podría costarme la vida. Tengo que escoger entre el amor y mi propia vida. ¿Vale la pena? Porque, ¿quién podría amar a una bestia?Antes de que él se convirtiese en música
