Synopsis:

A broken soul shrouded in the darkness of a blood-filled past...

York Cavon's no stranger to torment. It plagues his every sleeping moment and mocks him in his waking hours. The only thing that keeps him clinging to the edge of sanity, is the comfort that after centuries of battling through endless hell, he's stronger for it. Like forged steel, he's reassured with the knowledge that he will never break. Until a woman with a penance for trouble enters his life. This is supposed to be a simple mission. One that holds the key to the only thing York has ever desired. But the moment Felicity steps foot on his doorstep, cunning and carefree, York finds himself faced with a challenge that threatens to shatter centuries of hard-won resolve and resistance.

An innocent tainted by the dark secrets of evil...

Name it, and she's probably done it. Felicity Falcon was an unrepentant party girl with a lust for danger and an addiction to trouble, among other things. A reckless rebel with a self-diagnosed allergy to authority, Felicity has always broken the rules without so much as a backward glance and no consideration for the consequences. Until one of her games go too far costing her more than she would ever be willing to lose. But old habits die hard and Felicity finds herself skirting the lines of danger once again. Captured by one of the most elite slave markets in the underground world, she finds herself bound and sold to the highest bidder. Things aren't looking good, but that view gets reasonably darker when she's delivered into the hands of a sadistic Vampire.

Draw together by forces unseen and undeniable...

It's no secret that Vampires and Ero̱tikós Daímonas just don't mix. A history of heavy bloodshed between the two species made damn sure of that, and yet, that's the situation York and Felicity find themselves in. Two people born to hate each other but find it hard when sexual tension continues to rise, and every heated argument tests the limits of their tightly drawn resistance. With dark secrets and shadows of the past looming overhead, things are about to get very, very, messy. But who says that's always a bad thing?

Preview:

"If I were you I'd stop fighting." he growled, "The more you fight the faster your pulse flutters in that pretty little neck of yours." He bent his head and buried his face against her neck, inhaling her scent. "And we all know what happens when a vampire feeds off a succubus." At that she stilled and her eyes went huge with fear.

She held completely still in his grasp but her heart was still hammering away like a caged hummingbird. Felicity swallowed and closed her eyes, forcing herself to calm down and think rationally. If he wanted to kill her he would have done so already. Clearly, he still wanted or needed her around. The simple logic in that helped to slow her heart to an almost normal rate.

"Good girl" he purred by her ears, "but I think it's time you learned your first lesson."

Felicity had never been so humiliated in her entire life...and so aroused. York had dragged her into his office beside the foyer and with one sweep of his arm, cleared everything off his desk. Papers, folders, paper weights and a bunch of other items went clattering to the floor. He used the extra length of her leash to tie her hands behind her back and gave her a little push. "Bend over" he demanded. his voice brokering no argument. She moved closer to the desk and bent slightly at the waist. He came up behind her and planted a hand on her back, pushing her all the way down so that her breast and stomach were pressed into the cold wood. She had no doubt that in this position her ass was in the air and giving him a nice view of her lacy red underwear. York stifled a moan at the sight before him and tried to focus on the task at hand.

"Tell me Felicity...have you ever been spanked?" Her delicate gasp sounded and he smirked knowingly. "The last time I checked, that wasn't your business" she retorted. York sighed and shook his head. "Wrong answer". He brought his hand down across her ass and she jerked at the impact. "Have you ever been spanked?" he asked again. Feeling embarrassed, Felicity resorted to her favorite method of interaction. Sarcasm. "I'm not sure if you were here a few seconds ago, but I would clearly call that a spank". His hand came down on her ass again and she released a soft gasp. It had been a little harder than the first one. "Don't be smart with me" he warned.

"Now, I'm gonna ask you one more time. Have you. Ever. Been. Spanked?" Swallowing, Felicity shook her head. He tapped a finger against one of her ass cheeks, a subtle warning. She shivered and gave a stuttered "N-no." He removed the finger. "Good girl". Indignation roared through her, but so did something else. Excitement. Her cheeks heated in shame. She was bent over a desk at the mercy of a sadistic, insane, vampire she had just met, and she was getting excited. What was wrong with her? She yelped as his hand came down on her, pulling her from her thoughts. He must have asked her another question. "I asked if you've been tied up" he repeated. "I...I" she must have taken to long to answer for his liking because in the next instant his hand hit her ass not once but three times. She jerked at each one, releasing another yelp. It stung and she quivered. She felt his hand run up the back of her leg and she surprised herself by almost moaning. "Answer" he ordered.

"No" she whispered. His hand struck her again. "Louder!" he demanded. "No!" she gasped. York nodded in approval. "Good. I'm the first then". The way he said that shouldn't have excited her but raw possession layer his tone. "You tried to run away..." Felicity stiffened, unsure if she was expected to say anything. "But you won't do it again. Correct?" Felicity clenched her jaw, refusing to answer. He spanked her five times in quick succession and she bit her lip to keep a scream back. Every time he slapped her it sent a vibration straight to her sex. Even as her ass stung like fire. "What won't you do again?" She bit her lip harder and shook her head "Please..." she whispered.

"That's not an answer succubus". He yanked up her dress exposing her ass and underwear and delivered another five slaps against her cheeks. These ones were more intense, the sound of flesh against flesh deafening in the quiet office. Unable to hold back Felicity cried out in pleasure, her back arching. York's hand stilled against her and his eyes widened slightly. "You're enjoying this" he breathed, wonder lacing his voice.
