*Duet Narration*
I was ruthless, brutal. A sociopath by all accounts. The leader of the American Vampire Clan, a male who all feared because I was merciless.
And then I found my mate. Kayla. So fragile. Breakable. So human.
I'd make her mine, and she'd hate me for it. I wanted to give her pain with pleasure, wanted to break her skin and lick up the blood I spilled...take Kayla into me like she'd take me into her.
I'd have her surrendering to my needs. I'd give her my body but wouldn't be able to give her my heart.
How could I when it wasn't something I had to offer, when I was nothing but a coldhearted killer?
So when the threats come to my front door, it's time to show my female she's mated to the most dangerous vampire in the world.
