Cassie espère échapper à tout cela, mais le destin a d'autres plans et ne joue pas équitablement.

In a world where loyalty is fragile, betrayal bleeds deep, and desire burns hotter than vengeance, Elowen must face the truth: can she trust a man who holds both her salvation and her destruction in his hands?

CONTENT WARNING: THIS BOOK IS STRICTLY FOR READERS 18 AND ABOVE!! I’ve spent my whole life pretending to be normal. I’m supposed to keep my head down. That’s what’s expected. Father says I should blend in, be normal. Don’t draw attention. Don’t let anyone see what I am, or what I’m becoming. But there's this human, Derek, who hates me for reasons unknown. Every day, he finds a new way to make my life miserable. Hating him back should come naturally, but somehow... I don't. Wanting a human is forbidden, but he's all I can think about. My body doesn't seem to care about rules when it comes to him. He can shove me, sneer at me, push me as hard as he wants, but it won't change the fact that I still want him. I want his attention. His mouth. His anger. I want to explore this newfound feeling and desire with him, and I'll make it happen no matter what.
