The parasite and the host

One is Veronica Beaumont’s darkest temptation, the other her sweetest fantasy. To the parasite, she is his new prey, an equally vicious creature feigning innocence and chastity in a game she never agreed to play in the first place. And to the host, she is the truest definition of divinity, a goddess to be worshipped by the most powerful men who will follow her even into ruin.
