"I will protect you, even from yourself. I will love you, even when you resist. I will never let you go, no matter how hard you try to run. You can fight, you can scream, you can beg-but I will always find you, always bring you back to where you belong... with me. In life and in death, in joy and in suffering, you are mine. Forever. Until the world turns to dust and even after. And if anything-or anyone-dares to come between us, I will burn the earth itself to keep you by my side. Say yes, my love. Say yes, because there is no other answer." *** What did I do to deserve this? I used to believe I had control-my life, my choices, my fate. But nothing could prepare me for the nightmare I'm now tangled in. Every truth I thought I knew has unraveled, exposed for the lie it always was. What I once held dear no longer matters in a world where the unknowns consume me. Now, I'm trapped. Not just by the chains of my own fear, but by him. The devil incarnate-wrapped in the skin of a God, his beauty like a razor's edge, sharp enough to tear through my sanity. His eyes, cold as hell's depths, and yet they burn with a darkness I can't escape. He calls me his. Mine, he whispers, like a promise and a threat all at once. I can feel it-the weight of his gaze, the twisted game he plays with my mind. There's no mercy here, no compassion, only a perverse kind of obsession that claws at my every thought. I don't know if I want to escape anymore, or if I just want to survive him. I'm drowning in a storm of desire and fear, suffocated by the very thing that pulls me deeper into his world. I could run, but where would I go? There's no escape from a monster whose love is as dangerous as his hate. It's a game of survival now-either I learn how to endure the suffocating attention of a psychopath, or I break. Either way, I'm doomed. But as much as I hate him, I crave him. And that... that may be the worst curse of all.

The heavy smell of cigarette smoke couldn't even mask the metallic smell of aged blood beneath the floor boards. These were dangerous men. Boys with knives and painted skin.. ~ We laid in the darkened room letting the comfortable silence cover us. His tattooed hand lightly stroked the moist skin of my arm. Yuji was beautiful.. "I'm going to hell..." He said nonchalantly. My eyes danced along his strong jawline and shoulder length, tapered hair. Currents of silky, onyx hair. "I've touched such a pure soul with unclean hands..." He sat up, climbed to his feet and grabbed his silk robe from the door, concealing the Oni and blossoms that adorned his back.

Conditions of Love (Love Nothing, Book 4) by E.L. Beth Gael never believed in love-only in possession. He took what he wanted, and that included Charlotte. Forcing her into marriage was supposed to make her his forever, but instead, it shattered everything. Now, with Charlotte gone and his betrayal of Atlas-his best friend and Charlotte's cousin-leaving scars that won't heal, Gael is a man consumed by regret, obsession, and a desire that refuses to die. Charlotte thought escaping Gael meant reclaiming her life, but no matter how far she runs, his presence lingers in every shadow. He stole her freedom, broke her trust, and yet, she can't forget the man who made her feel alive in ways she never should have. When fate pulls them back together, old wounds reopen, and buried emotions ignite. But love, when built on captivity and betrayal, comes at a cost. This time, Charlotte refuses to be controlled. And Gael? He'll do anything to prove that she was always meant to be his-even if it means breaking every last condition she sets. In this gripping continuation of the Love Nothing series, E.L. Beth weaves a tale of obsession, redemption, and the brutal cost of love that refuses to be forgotten.
