"Forgive me, Father, for I have sinned."

I've fallen in love with Lou-Lou. And I'll stop at nothing to keep her away from you.

But there's one thing I never counted on.... The moment when our "truths" would turn into lies.

I thought Bruno DeLuca was our biggest threat. I was wrong. Because the fire burning between us would end up destroying us. And killing me.

People think love conquers all. What they don't know is that for some of us...it comes at a price. The ultimate price. Sometimes, love can end up wrecking you - instead of saving you. Sometimes, love can quickly turn to hate. And sometimes...even after you've killed your demons - there's still one more that comes to the surface.

"There are two sides to every story.... This is ours."
