Dark Dream

I always finish the job. Until Violet.

Violet

I think I found him. The man who doesn't fear my father.

Xavier Dyer takes tall, dark, and dangerous to new levels. He steals my breath and sets my heart to pounding. The cold steel of his gun should frighten me.

I'd like to say I tried to stay away, but I'd be lying. He sucks me in with every breath, using his body, his hands, his voice to seduce me.

He commands me in the bedroom and leaves me wrecked.

Until I discover who he really is. And just how he came to find me.

The bastard lured me in and gave me the one thing I desperately needed. He knew I would let him do whatever he wanted to me.

Right up until that final second.

Xavier

She has no idea what I really am.

Violet Wynn is the daughter of a monster. Her billionaire father will be to blame for her death. He deserves it.

Violet started off like every other job to me. She was nothing more than a target. A paycheck. But then I touch her, taste her, and devour her. All I want is more.

As the hours tick by, I start to question whether or not I'll be able to pull the trigger at the end.

But I must. It's her or me. That's the only way this can end.

And if I have to string her along?

So be it. I'm a Shade. Nobody escapes my wrath.

Not even Violet.
