Six years, ten days, and six minutes.

That's how long the King of Hell gave Glacielle to break her immortality and become mortal. If she succeeds, she can live the life of a mortal, free from the constraints and dangers of hell, never to be disturbed by the King or any of his demons again. If she fails, she must return to her life of sin and vice as Wrath's general.

With six years already over and no promising prospects of breaking her immortality in sight, Glacielle believes the bargain is already a loss until she stumbles upon an old library on the outskirts of Manhattan. It's here she finds a book emitting ancient magic from the Under. This could very well be her last chance at becoming mortal. But when a human male with the rare ability to see beyond magic and neutralize its effects learns of Glacielle's true identity, the game changes. With his help, Glacielle might win yet.

But Wrath has other ideas. With his hounds on their heels, the two have to race against the clock to win the bargain and secure their safety. Three days and six minutes remain, and the King of Hell sees all.

He's My Mate by Red_Assassin
37 parts Complete Mature
CAUTION CONTAINS MATURE CONTENT. "Say it, Allison," he said, his voice low as he trapped me against the rough wall. A shiver ran down my spine, his voice pulling at me, the power in it making me want to do anything he asked. I shook my head, afraid my voice might betray me. His teeth lightly grazed my neck causing a sigh to get past my lips. I could feel him smile against my skin. He knew he was going to get what he wanted one way or another. I tried to slip away, but he grabbed my wrists, pinning them down tightly. He pressed his hard body against me. I was aware of every inch of him that was touching me. "Don't think you can just leave. We're not done yet." My stomach tightened at his words, the desire inside burning for him. My damn body at war with my mind yet again. He slid his hand up to the edge of my shorts, slowly working it's way up as his mouth trailed small nips from my neck to my collar bone and lower, stopping only when he reached the fabric. I could feel my resolve weakening as his hand reached its destination. "Say it," he demanded. I moaned, my head tipping back as he moved expertly. I wanted to say it then, I really did. But if I said the words, there was no going back. ***************** Allison Cole has just turned seventeen. Most girls would be excited, but she doesn't see it as anything special. She can now find her mate, wherever he is. But she doesn't put much stock in mates or true love. How could something like that be predetermined? Things only go from bad to worse when on that very day she discovers who her mate actually is. Will Allison be able to overcome her bleak thoughts about mates and accept hers? Or is the man bad enough to make her run away? Caught between her body, her mind, and what's best for her pack. Allison must make her decision. Is it worth it?
