Alejandro tightened his arms around her. "Go back to sleep." He mumbled groggily against her forehead as he placed his lips against her skin, the pressure soothing her otherwise erratically beating heart. 

She hummed in response and snuggled closer to him, closing her eyes briefly before they quickly opened again, momentarily startled. Tears stung her eyes and she pushed away from him slightly. The slither of moonlight that escaped from the gap in between her curtains high lighted his face for her hungry, deprived eyes to feast on.

Not believing it, she hesitated briefly before reaching forward to stroke his jaw tenderly, her caress gentle. He leaned into her touch and closed his eyes in bliss. 

He had missed this.   

A sob threatened to escape her as she drank in the sight of him. 

Pulling her back to him, Alejandro placed another kiss on her forehead, his lips lingering there, brushing against her skin as he spoke to her. "I meant what I said, when I said I took my job seriously. I intend to guard you and your body with my life."

+++✦+++ Suddenly, he shoved me against the refrigerator, his hand gripping my neck while the other pressed against the fridge beside my head. My lips parted slightly in shock as I met his gaze. "Don't toy with me, kitten." He whispered, a sly smile playing on his lips. "If I find out you're lying, there's a good chance I might have to kill you." His eyes flicked down to my lips and back up, the threat hanging heavy in the air. I realized he wasn't trying to strangle me, but the danger was unmistakable. "And if you try to leave town before I recover, I will find you wherever you are." His voice was a chilling blend of bluntness and eerie calm. "Do you understand?" His gaze bore into mine. "Why don't you just kill me right now?" I ventured, pushing my luck. A pleased look crossed his face as he released his grip on my neck. +++✦+++ In a city plagued by crime and violence, a young aspiring nurse fights to stay hidden from her sadistic stepfather and his ruthless gang. In her journey to uncover the truth about her forgotten past, she crosses paths with a dangerous and mysterious stranger in the most unexpected manner.

I grabbed my glass, sliding hers to her and taking a long drink as she hesitantly reached out to take her glass. I watched her staring at the brown liquid in the glass, looking to be debating. "It will help with the pain you're in," I decided to say, making her look up at me. There was something in the depths of her eyes, something that nearly made me shiver. Then she looked back at the glass, tilting it to her lips and downing the entire contents. I was surprised, seeing her clench her eyes shut, her lips in a firm line. "Why did you have them brand me?" she finally asked, setting her glass back on the table before meeting my gaze. "Marking you," I replied. *************************************** *************************************** Evelyn has given up on life as an upstanding citizen when she is taken by unknown men with cash to burn.

I am done fucking pretending", he growled with lust and placed his forehead on mine. I could feel the butterflies running wild in stomach as he said those words. Those few words that made me feel so turned on. "Kiss me", I whispered softly. He look me into my eyes, then down to the lips and back up to my eyes. "Kiss me, Elijah. Before I regret it", I demanded as my hands grabbed a fist full of his shirt. He - with no hesitation - slammed his lips on mine. Kissing me so passionate, longingly and hungry. Our bodies melted into one another as he gripped me with both hands on my ass. My hands moved with a shaking sensation to his head as I cupped it when his tongue explored mine'.

★BOOK #11 in the DARK SERIES★ "I don't want to let you go even if that makes me evil," he growled as he held her body in his arms. Trez Luciano had one rule. Destroy anyone that got in his way. Living on the streets with his brother and then being smuggled into cage fights, he saw the worst in people all the time. Until, he met his mate. She was beautiful, kind and had a smile that made the ice melt away from around his barren heart. He couldn't resist her warmth or the way her wolf eased the blood thirsty animal inside him. Angela Moretti saw the worst in life after her parents were killed in front of her eyes. Living in Tuscany all her life, she couldn't bear the crushing memories of her parents being taken from her. So, she left for New York and now worked in a cafe with her best friend to ignore the ache in her heart. But all that changed when a customer at the cafe was a very dangerous man and called to her wolf and her heart. Axe Luciano was the head of security for his brother's nightclub. He made sure that no one fucked with his brother and killed anyone that tried. It was a simple way that worked for him to forget his tormented days in cage fights as a prized fighter. He kept his focus on work and nothing else... until trouble came calling at the club and he rescued a woman, that beckoned the possessive wolf from inside his blackened soul. Sonya Sharma moved from Mumbai all the way to New York to escape her old life. She was best friends with Angela and they even lived together after they met at the airport the day they both arrived. Deciding to stick together, they both worked at a cafe. And she knew all about the shifter world while being a human. However, she never thought that she'd catch the attention of Axe Luciano.
