The Shadow King Book

Juliette Hale never imagined her own father would sell her. She never imagined that he would be as cold hearted as to give her over as property to the ruthless Alpha King Darius Blackthorn. But when his gambling debts aren't you, she is handed over as collateral. Hidden in his glided cage, she refuses to bow to him. Her defiance, however, rather than infuriate him, ignites something dark and hungry and Darius, who promises to break her spirit piece by piece. But as they started tonight, their punishments and anger turned into passion as both of them discovered that hatred and desire are both roaming on a thin line that is closely related... closer than they could have imagined. Trapped in a dangerous game of power, pain, and longing, Juliette must decide whether to fight for her freedom, or surrender her heart to the monster who owns her.
