DIFFERENT SHADES OF HIM (BOOK-ONE)
"And what you tried today," I winced in pain as he held my nape from behind before turning me around. I peered up at him in fear while he stared down at me with his intimidating eyes. His eyes were thundering. Leaning down further, he made my pulse rise. Being so close to him- a man, no less, I could see the clear spec of blackness inside his dark eyes. They were so raw and so dark and so piercing. "I would suggest you not try it again," he added, his bottomless brooding eyes burned into mine, "because no matter how hard you are going to try, you are never going to get out of here without my permission. Away from my sight," he vowed in a menacing tone that had no expression at all. "Don't get your hopes high." Tears split down my eyes while he studied my face. "You like escaping. Don't you?" He explained to me in a condescending tone. "Let's see how you are going to try now with my eyes on you- all the time." "You can try all you want, but you can never break my spirits!" I looked at him, directly in his eyes without blinking. His eyes were still focussed on my face as he slowly stepped around me. "Do you mean it?" His voice was strangely soft, "Maybe I cannot. But.. " Adding to his intimidating aura. Shaur. "No.. " I whispered. "I can break him." His gaze met mine in an instant. "You seem to have forgotten your own mental capacity of understanding certain situations. Let me refresh it for you." His eyes seemed to burn holes at me. "I'd rather not get blood on your dress."

I was wondering if we could grab some coffee and maybe hang out sometime?" she asked nervously. He turned to her, a sense of darkness and danger emanating from him. Her body went on alert. "You shouldn't be able to see me," he said with a smiling like a Cheshire cat. . . . "I scratch and bite" she warned "You'll crawl and beg too" he smirked. . . .

What starts off as a brief connection quickly develops into something forbidden and thrilling.

Chasing You
They weren't supposed to matter to each other. And they certainly weren't supposed to need each other. Yet here they were, tangled in something neither of them knew how to name. Their connection had crept up on them slowly, like shadows stretching at sunset, until it was impossible to deny. But now, it was all getting messy. People had started to notice, the whispered warnings, the veiled looks, the interference that threatened to tear them apart before they even had the chance to figure out what they were becoming. And that was the problem, wasn't it? They weren't just chasing each other, they were running from everything trying to keep them apart.
ON HIS WATCH
She never knew that his world existed. The supernatural was not something she was enamoured with, unlike most young women her age. In the days of Twilight, Supernaturals, The Originals and Bitten, vampires, witches, werewolves and other supernatural creatures, she just wasn't interested. She just wanted to make it through university, graduate and have a career. If she meets a guy, fine. If not, fine. She wasn't concerned. No one had every made her feel interested. He watched her. From a distance. It was forbidden to reveal himself to her. Humans didn't do well when they learned that they were not the only species out there. She was unspoiled by the world around her. Unbelievably so. Innocent in a way that he had not seen in centuries. She was pure and light. To have her as his was his one desire. Yet, they were worlds apart. Then, she was attacked, and that very innocence stolen. With his rage brewing stronger and stronger, he broke the rules and came to her. Saving her at the last minute.Complete
