He leaned closer, a sly smile playing on his lips as he pulled down his mask. "What's the verdict?" he asked, his piercing green eyes locking onto hers.

Elyne Cooper, the youngest detective in the NYPD, has one mission: capture The Reclaimer, a vigilante with the charisma of a saint and the precision of a devil, who has turned New York into his playground-and her life into a storm of chaos.

But when their paths cross in a quiet café, Elyne finds herself drawn into his dangerous game. He knows her. He's been watching. And now, he's one step ahead.

As the public hails him a hero and the NYPD demands his capture, Elyne must uncover the truth behind the man-and fight the feelings he's awakened in her. But every step closer to the truth pulls her further into the darkness, where justice blurs with obsession and betrayal feels like destiny.

"Careful, Detective," he murmured, his fingers brushing hers as he secured the knot. "If you keep shivering like that under my touch, I might think you enjoy this."

What happens when the hunter becomes the hunted-and the prey is far too tempting to resist?

Professor's Dark Desire [18+] - just as a warning this story contains themes of abuse, assault, and unhealthy relationships. If these topics are difficult for you, please read with caution because this story is definitely on the darker side of dark romance <3 ... "Tell me you little slut....." his hand moved from her thigh, nearing her soaking wet pussy. "Am I the first to touch you like this?" He paused, plunging his middle finger into her needy cunt. She let out a piercing cry as his finger grazed her tight hole. "Fucking answer me" he roared thrusting his middle finger in and out of her whilst devouring her clit, a feeling she was so unfamiliar to. He looked up at her, watching her helpless little face plead for mercy. "Answer......" She couldn't form a sentence "I-......" her eyes widened when he took her clit between his teeth as punishment for not answering. "Maybe......" Alejandro hated her response, it triggered him. He thrusted another finger into her earning another cry. "Who?" He demanded an answer as he angrily fingered her inexperienced pussy. Thrusting in and out in deep strokes, earning a guttural moan each time. "I'll fucking kill him" he spoke huskily, moving up to her jaw, harshly kissing it, still ploughing his fingers inside of her. "Tell me Yara, who the fuck has touched you like this" he bellowed, using his free hand to squeeze her jaw in a menacing grip, making her hiss. He withdrew his hand mid-stroke, bringing his drenched fingers up to her and shoving them in her mouth, making her taste her own juices. "Does he make you this wet?" He dug his fingers deeper into the back of the throat. Inflaming her gag reflexes. She let out a muffled sob.....
