Xenobia
I hate Adonis Cardelo.
He’s dominating, lethal, and, not to mention, my brother’s best friend.
But those aren’t the real reasons why the dangerously handsome brute gets under my skin.
I hate him because hes back as my personal bodyguard after stealing my heart and disappearing six years ago.

I hate Adonis Cardelo.

But those aren’t the real reasons why the dangerously handsome brute gets under my skin.
I hate him because hes back as my personal bodyguard after stealing my heart and disappearing six years ago.

Submitting to him will ruin me forever, but in his arms might be the only place I’m truly safe.

Xenobia Hawthorne has always been off-limits.
I’ve kept myself away for six years, watching and waiting from a distance.
Her scars are a painful reminder of my past failures.
They illustrate the wickedness that runs through my veins.
Now that I’m back, I’ve vowed to keep her safe from the man who almost took everything from me.
My father.
As the temperature rises, the old flames of desire begin to spark between us.
We shouldn’t cross that line. Not again.
But I can’t help myself.
The first time we touch, possession burns a trail straight to my heart.
She’s mine. She always has been.
And now, I’ll do anything to keep her safe, even if I have to pay for it in blood.
