Lady Bronwen is murdered in a satanic ritual by twelve demon worshipers. She is sent to the Under-realm where she meets Thanatos, its handsome and charmingly demonic ruler who wants Bronwen as his eternal companion. When Bronwen refuses him, Thanatos makes the Lady a deal of her own. If she can track down all of her killers, he will release her from his possession. However, if she cannot resist his seduction, she will remain his forever.
Bronwen accepts the deal, trusting herself and her moral upbringing to endure Thanatos. But, as the identity of the twelve are revealed, it becomes clear to Bronwen that she alone values her life. She desperately tries to find something to stay alive for and is forced to question her conscience, religion, social standing and above all, her womanly desires for a man she believes is the devil.
*******
"You wish me to..." Bronwen tried to think of the words and decided upon the closest thing to what he was implying. "...be your wife?"
Thanatos laughed and relaxed back into his chair. "Marriage is a condition invented by men as a way to claim property over one another. What I want from you is a partnership. Be mine as I shall be yours and you can have all the freedoms the mortal world denied you."
"With you." It was not a question this time and Bronwen put such a disgusted tone to the words that she saw a flash of anger and hurt in Thanatos's eyes. He dropped his glass to the table and before Bronwen could blink he had pulled her chair to the side and stood in front of her, both hands on the arms of the chair, encasing her so his conspicuous body dominated her vision.
The air caught in Bronwen's lungs, hot and painful.
"Yes, with me," Thanatos said bitterly, his breath was cool on her lips and his eyes were level with hers. She had the sudden fear that he might kiss her.

And you will do only as I please, exactly as I say, until-" "Over my dead body!" I hissed, suddenly filled with anger. "That can be arranged," Hans said easily. Then with a smile that was anything but pleasant: "Or you can steal for me instead. Kill for me, if I tell you to. Either way, you stay where I can see you. Night and day." "I'm no puppet." I held his silver gaze with a glare. "And I'm definitely no murderer." "No, but you're a thief. One that's now forever indebted to me." ~•|•~ She steals power.

Entwined by Dusk (BL)
WARNING: MATURE CONTENT🔞 "You were mine the moment you tried to understand me, Dimitri-every thought, every breath, bound to me. And no matter how hard you fight it, you'll always crave the darkness I pulled you into." The world watched in collective disbelief as the notorious serial killer, Thanatos, walked into a police station one cool September morning and surrendered. The infamous murderer, whose body count had surpassed a hundred, had brought nations to their knees with fear, causing parents to hold their children closer and cities to lock their doors at night. His sudden surrender was met with a mixture of shock and relief. Finally, the nightmare was over or so the world thought. But the man known as Thanatos, Kian Orlov, did not speak a word following his arrest. His silence was deafening, leaving investigators grasping at straws and the media scrambling for answers. With no confession and no clues, the case threatened to crumble, a shadow of its former terror lingering just beneath the surface. The authorities were desperate, knowing that without answers, the fear could easily return. In a last-ditch effort to crack the case, they called upon the world's most renowned criminal psychologist, Dimitri Romano. Known for his ability to delve into the darkest minds and emerge with the truth, Dimitri had faced monsters of all kinds but never had he encountered a case like this, nor a man like Kian. A criminal and a psychologist. A love story full of possession and power, pain and anguish, infatuation and passion. The borderline between reality and fantasy, between good and evil. What is their love if not forbidden? In the shadows of obsession and sin, their bond is as dangerous as it is inescapable.

Sins and Secrets Book 1: "How do you think all your little Alpha buddies will feel," he hissed, his hot, rancid breath whispering across the back of my neck causing my stomach to sink, "When they discover the dark secret you've been hiding? Do you think they'll respect you still? Do you think that little mate of yours will still want you?" At the thought of Tiberius, my wolf went crazy. My body jerked at the restrained that held me down, the smell of burning flesh filling the room as the silver began to cut into my wrists. "Go to hell." We snapped as my whole body began to go numb. "Oh can't you see, my sweet little bird," he came closer, his lips practically pressed against the skin on my cheek, "You're already there." --------------------------------------------------------------------- My name is Cara Eldoran. I am one of two Alpha's within my pack. Two years ago, I stood frozen to the ground and watched as someone I loved killed my older brother in front of me. There were no screams or tears. My whole body had gone into shock, and I was left to watch the horrors unfold in front of me. But I will lose no one else. Alpha's are going missing. They are being taken from their homes in the middle of the night and are never seen again. Sometimes I wish that being taken was my biggest problem. That all I had to worry about was making sure my windows were locked at night and that I was safe in the arms of my mate, but there is much more at stake then most realize. I vowed revenge for my brother the day he died, and I will stop at nothing to get it. Not even the dark secrets that could destroy me will stop my lust for vengeance. ---------------------------------------------------------------------Complete
