LOGINThis book is officially over. I can't believe I finished it. There were times I wanted to give up. Times I did at some point, but for some reason, I always found the energy to push through. I want to thank everyone who gave this book a chance. Without you, this book wouldn't be as successful as it
“Nikolai, I- ouch” She takes a step towards me and then stops, her face twisting into a grimace. I'm at her side in an instant, my hands around her shoulder, steadying her, “What's wrong?” I ask, my gaze scanning her carefully. My eyes land on the thin ragged line on her knee. The edges are raw, a
To be honest I wouldn't blame her if she did. She’d just seen me torture information out of a man. A man who deserves every bit of pain I dished out to him and more but still. Ava wasn’t used to this. She wasn’t used to seeing other people suffer. I was. I thought I could shield her from the darknes

"Khristos, Solnyshko" He curses, gripping me tightly then releasing me when he's sure I can stand on my own. I hate the fact that I miss his touch almost immediately it's gone but I do a good job at hiding it. (Christ, Sunshine) I try to balance on my shaky legs but the sharp pain radiating from my
“Haven't you heard that it isn't wise to share your name with strangers, little girl?" the voice said it like it was something every other person knew except her. A flush of warmth spread through her, her lips pulled downward as she moved away from the wall slightly, “My mama says that it's polite t
