The Duke's Sins | ongoing

It's the Duke. He's standing over me, his lips a slip away from mine.

"Give in to me Delilah," he said lowly, his minty breath teasing the flesh of my lips.

I almost melted into him, aching to commit to the sin I'd left behind.

He traced a knuckle down my cheeks, my breath catching in my throat as he whispered in my ear. The words set heat flooding into my core.

I brushed my lips over his, pulling back just as his large hands snaked around my waist. "Never again, Your Grace."

Delilah Rossi to the world, Sphinx to the spy industry.

She's the best in the business - a Hunter.

From petty criminals to gang leaders, Delilah chases after her preys like the Hunter she is.

She's the footsteps you hear behind you, only to find no one there, the missing people you see in the news, the criminals imprisoned and captivated after years-

And then the Duke goes missing.

The same one that Delilah met between the bedsheets once upon a time.
