The sequel to Beautiful Belle and Alpha Grayson (Kidnapped By My Mate). DO NOT READ THIS BOOK OR ITS DESCRIPTION IF YOU HAVE NOT READ BBAG. MAJOR SPOILERS AHEAD. Cannot be read as a stand-alone. ---- Belle is missing, war is coming, and a royal prophecy written hundreds of years ago is about to be fulfilled, changing the lives of Belle and Grayson forever. Belle is alone in a strange town, completely and utterly heartbroken after being both physically and emotionally abused by the man she thought she loved. Struggling to make ends meet, she must find a way to support herself without being affected by the constant, agonizing pain in her body, courtesy of her mate rejecting her to be with someone else. It's because of this constant reminder of what could have been that she is closed off to the world, determined to do things on her own from now on. Little does she know, her mate, the man who broke her, is searching for her. And he won't stop until he finds her. Grayson has spent the last few months watching his mate and love of his life get abused by the vampire controlling his body. Finally, he has been set free. However, things aren't as simple as they seem. Now that he's back in control, he has more than a few things to worry about. Becoming a hybrid, half-vampire, half-werewolf, is one thing. Finding out that he is meant to rule over millions as king of all creatures is another. And let's not forget about the war between vampires and werewolves that is about to take place in his backyard. But none of that matters after he finds out that his mate is nowhere to be found, having escaped him before he got the chance to explain what really happened. She is out in the world, completely unprotected, no idea that she is meant to take the throne alongside Grayson as the new queen of all creatures. A target has been placed on Belle's back. Many want her dead. Grayson can only hope that he finds her before anyone else does.

"You said you enjoy reading books." Phoenix's voice was reduced to a whisper of seduction. He leaned over the bed, the pad of his lip tickling my ear lobe. "Well an orgasm is similar to reading a book," He placed his hand on both of my wrists bringing them together above my head. "You don't jump to the climax of a book without a build up...Not if it's done right at least." I could feel the warmth of his breath caressing my cheek. While my heart practically ripped its way through my chest. "You have to start with small, featherlight touches against the skin." His fingers steadily traveled along my arm, at an agonizingly slow pace. "Touches that leave you wanting more...Touches that leave your body aching and desperate for that painfully, exquisite relief. The beginning of the ultimate experience of pleasure." Phoenix Knight doesn't believe in love and happily ever afters. He has no time for rules or feelings, always treating women like toys to be used and thrown away. Many see him as a womanizer and an all together bad person.

Scarlet Rose is just another face in the endless crowds of people, secretly struggling with her own demons. All her life, she has maintained an unremarkable and ordinary lifestyle in an attempt to blend in. And it worked, until she piques the interest of a certain someone.

"Do you know the alphabet, Vianna?" Her fingers curl in my hair, her thighs trembling around my head as I smirk into her tantalising core. She knows what's coming, and she's already losing control. My sweet, forbidden fruit. Except I'm Angelo Vincent Romano. Nothing is forbidden, especially not her. The exception to every rule I've ever made. The woman who tastes of forever. My only weakness.
