COMPLETED. "Look, if you're-" "Shut up." I was taken back at the sudden manner in which he spoke to me. "Let's get something straight Miss Greene, I don't appreciate people talking back at me. And quite frankly, you're crossing your limit with me and my patience with you. So from now on, as long as you're with me you'll do as I say. Understood?" _____________________________________________ Mystery. Romance. Deception. You know what they say, hate is a strong emotion- so is love.

My head snapped to the side as he slapped me forcefully on the cheek. I kept my head down not allowing him to see the hurt in my eyes, or the hurt in my heart, or the pain all over my body. No, I was stronger than that, I would not let him see it; he already called me weak, pathetic and out of place. "Look at me," he growled menacingly. I kept my head down and I literally felt his fury radiating off him. An iron hand wrapped around my throat and it lifted my head, but before my eyes made contact with his face I closed them. "Human", he spat, "I said look at me.", his voice was dangerously low. I knew he was playing a game with me, I had done it once and I had payed for it. The grip around my throat tightened and it became difficult to breath. "Look at me", His voice had turned into a seducing velvety whisper. "I know you want to." He knew what he wanted but he didn't allow himself, that's why me looking at him was forbidden. It brought out his monster, the beast that could only be tamed by one person. Who? ♤♡◇♧ A dangerous world awaits her, a world she didn't know existed. When the submissive falls among the dominating there's no end to the surprises and dangers lurking around. _______________________________ Highest ranking: #6 in vampire #2 in mystery #1 in romance _______________________________ @chrissy303 - My heart strings pulled just reading that...then again I get to deep into stories @sreeti - I'm so glad I read this book.
