A missing daughter.
A silver blade.
All the clues point to one person: Me.
My name is Evangeline, and I'm a retired assassin who wants nothing to do with the underworld. But an edict from a Demonic Lord forces me to return to the man and the life I left behind.
I have seven days to prove my innocence.
Whoever set me up is going to die.
Excerpt:
He said nothing as he approached me, those black eyes intense and fixated. I stepped back into the counter as he crowded my personal space.
“Xai…” His fingers knotted in my ponytail as he yanked my head back to the angle he preferred.
Oh, fuck… I knew that look. Nothing good ever came from that look.
I flattened my palms against his bare chest, but he pushed right through my physical barrier and took my mouth with a ferocity that screamed possession. His tongue demanded entrance, and when I tried to fight him, he bit my lip hard enough to bleed. On my gasp, he entered and unleashed his desire in a kiss that deprived me of oxygen.
My knees threatened to buckle under his assault. He fucked my mouth the way he did my body, reminding me who we were to each other with a few bold strokes. I melted for him, as I always did, as arousal raced through my system.
God, I missed this.
I missed him.
I hated it. Loved it. Craved it.
My arms wound around his neck to pull him closer, and he reciprocated in kind by grabbing my hip and yanking me into his hard body. The hand in my hair tightened to the point of pain as he devoured my mouth, and I scratched him in response.
Sadistic bastard and his dark yearnings.
He grinned against my lips. “Mmm, do it again.”
I tried to knee him instead, and he spun me around to face the counter, his chest to my back. He dragged his teeth over my neck as he wrapped his arm around my waist to hold me in place.
“Not what I requested,” he murmured as he ground his erection into my ass.
