Beauty's Beast

"I'm going to teach you, sweetness. How to give yourself fully to me."

Her chest rises and falls rapidly. But her gaze doesn't leave mine. "I don't know if I can do that."

"You don't have to do a thing." I can't stop myself from reaching out and touching her hair. My hand is huge by her face. I grip one of her damp locks, swallowing it in my fist. "Just let go and be mine."

She'll pay her family's debt one way or another...

Years ago Daphne's father stole from me and it's time for my revenge.

I'll steal her away to my modern castle. Lock her in my tower.

Make her mine in every way.

She's Beauty, and I'm the Beast.

Note: This is a dark romance. It is the first in a trilogy.
