He was fond of Sola and attracted to her. Trilingual: English, Spanish, and Portuguese.He was 'diminutive' and wore bespoke suits, heavy gold jewelry, and a diamond Chopard watch. Vitoria described him as disciplined and decisive. Personalityįearing change, he prized neatness, organization, and security. When they were done, Assail killed them both. To get Sola back, Assail kidnapped and tortured Ricardo and his brother until Eduardo gave up her location. In retaliation, he had her kidnapped with the intention of torturing and likely killing her. She only found items worth a lot more than that so instead she moved a Degas statue slightly out of place, which she knew Benloise would immediately notice.

Angry that he didn't pay her the full amount they'd originally agreed upon, she broke into his house with the intention of stealing something worth the exact amount of the remainder. He hired Sola Morte to spy on Assail, but when Assail learned what was happening, he threatened Benloise until he cancelled the job with her. In Caldwell, he ran drugs wholesale out of his art gallery with his brother, Eduardo, handling the finances. The eldest of three siblings, Ricardo grew up poor in South America with a traditional mother.

When Assail falls into a coma and lingers on the verge of death, his cousins seek out Sola and beg her to give him a reason to live.

Her heart, though, is back up north, with the only man who has ever gotten through her defenses: Assail, son of Assail, who never meant to fall in love-and certainly not with a human woman. ug lord's family, she is lying low far from Caldwell, keeping her nose clean and her beloved grandmother safe.
