Dark Odyssey Book 2

She was always mine … whether she wanted to be or not

Ten years ago I allowed another man to take her to pay her families debt.

Fighting for her would have started a war.

I thought life was complicated then.

Now she’s back in my life and brings more than I bargained for.

I live by a code: Always stay in control.

Yet, I’ve never been able to say no to her.

Not years ago when she stepped through the doors of the Dark Odyssey and handed me her v card.

Not now that when her enemies try to blackmail her.

She needs my help so I give it.

But not without a price.

I want her

I want her for myself.

On her knees before me, in my bed, everywhere.

Every day, forever.

I’ll protect her from everything.

Except me.

Beneath the mask I wear, I may be the devil she doesn’t want, but needs.

I want her to be mine.

My property, my possession.

What I never knew was her secrets may be my end.
