Synopsis
*Author Note: This is not your average romance story. Some people will kill for love.*
I’m a user and abuser of my own body. In the darkest hour I sold my soul to the devil and now I must pay the price. With his gun to my head I have no choice but to listen and obey, but I refuse to go down easily. Nothing is stronger than the will to survive. My instincts kicked into full gear the second he stepped into my motel room.
Except when I look at him I see my own heart staring back at me. A history tainted by blood.
I don’t know his name, but I know he wants me. To save myself I’ll sacrifice my sanity. My body. My soul. Something tells me the x-shaped scar that marks his eye is the only escape I have. He is Mr. X; the man who comes to claim my life. Can I save myself before he demands my heart?
WARNING: This book contains very disturbing situations, dubious consent, breath depravation, strong language, drugs and alcohol, and graphic violence, which may be considered triggers.
Excerpt
“Are
you comfortable, little bird?” I ask, walking to the other side of the bed.
“Fuck
you.”
“Now,
now, I thought I had already established that is not the purpose of this
intrusion.”
“Well
then what the fuck do you want from me? Are you here to watch me do myself? Are
you here to kill me? Are you going to sit there and wait until I confess my
darkest secrets to you? Or do you want me to do a little dance for you, huh?”
she muses. “Because I sure as hell have no clue why the fuck you are in my room,
trying to fucking blow my brains out!”
I
laugh and shake my head at her outburst. Grabbing her other hand, I secure it
to the bedpost and tie up her last remaining free limb. Strapping it up nicely
until she hisses from the pain, I say, “None of that.” I wink. “Or maybe all of
them.”
“Oh,
screw you! I don’t deserve any of this. What have I ever done to you?”
I
frown, gazing down upon her. Her eyes speak the truth. “You don’t remember, do
you?”
Her
eyes widen and her lips part. It takes her a few seconds to answer. “Remember
what?”
“Everything.”
