She set my darkness on fire--unleashing the beast within.
Killian Cross
My wife will serve a single purpose - to bear me a child. After that, she is nothing to me.
But even I am a fool for beauty.
As soon as I see her, I know nothing could have prepared me for the powerful attraction that overwhelms me. Like a flame in the darkness, a spark of light in a city consumed by evil, I can not resist the pull of her beauty and grace. Choosing her is a risk, but it can't stop me from being engulfed by the unholy fire she's lit within me.
Lillith Sinclair
My fate was sealed the day my father sold me to a man I'd never met. My beauty is a bargaining chip, an ornamental toy for the wealthy. The man who owns me is feared and reviled - some say he's disfigured, a beast beneath a mask that hides his ruined face. All I know as I step into the depths of his dark estate, is that a burning desire draws me closer to his dangerous allure.But with each passing moment, the shadows of his enemies loom, threatening to consume us both in a fiery cataclysm of lust and destruction.
