London, 19th century. Set in a darker city where demons rule drug cartels and demonic blood bestows gifts, Cairn is a high class prostitute with the voice of an angel. Working at the infamous House of Asphodel, where most mortals with demon blood end up, Cairn is desperate to escape a curse laid upon him that drives him to kill each day. 

Asmodeus the demon lord rules over the east end, and his reign is marked with fear and bloodshed. When Cairn approaches him for a deal, an ancient bond deeper than wedding vows instead is accidentally forged between Cairn and Asmodeus - one neither can survive without the other. 

Now forced to remain at the side of the demon lord, Cairn sets about unweaving Asmodeus' drug cartel from within - but opium is the least of his challenges. His life, even his heart, must be laid on the line.All Rights Reserved

For years, she's lived on exhaustion and sacrifice-working tirelessly to keep food on the table, drowning in debt, and fighting to pay for her brother's medical bills. Hope was never meant for her... until the most dangerous man she knows offers a deal she cannot refuse. Caius Grivano. Her cold, ruthless employer. The infamous mafia leader whose name alone makes the underworld tremble. His proposition is simple: be his wife. No strings. No love. Just a contract that grants her brother's life in exchange for her freedom. Luxury in place of poverty. Safety in exchange for silence. But simplicity is a lie. Because behind Caius's icy indifference is a past that refuses to stay buried... and a little girl who shatters every wall he's built. What happens when a transaction of convenience begins to feel like something far more dangerous-something real?
