F. R. Black

Camila is no stranger to blood and betrayal. Her father being Brazil’s biggest drug lord meant she had the finest things money could buy—until he was murdered, at least. But by that point she didn’t really need him; he’d taught her all she needed to know…except about falling in love. Now she’s bleeding to death in a pool of her own blood and there’s a strange man promising to save her life if she signs a contract with Fairy Godmother Inc.…

He suddenly lurches forward, grabs my arm, and pushes me up against the wall, one hand holding my wrists above my head. The other pushes my hips against the wall.

“Don’t play me, Mara! Not when I’m seriously considering either slitting your throat or ripping your clothes off,” he hisses.

He lets go of me and pushes me into my room.

“Punishment starts tomorrow,” he growls.

Mara is not like others in her pack. She isn’t afraid of the cursed hooded alpha who lurks in the shadows. One night, however, as she sleeps soundlessly in her bed, Alpha Kaden himself kidnaps her. He drags her into a world of secrets and evil, far away from everything she’s ever known. Will Alpha Kaden turn Mara into a monster just like him? Or will she help him find the light once more?

“Spread your legs.” His icy tone left no room for debate.

I let out an involuntary groan as his rough fingers slid inside me, sending goosebumps down my spine. I was already soaking wet for him.
