Monster. <\/em><\/strong><strong>Mine.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>Spectre<\/em><\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I wasn\u2019t even a man when I took a\nlife for the first time, although you couldn\u2019t say I was a child. If I\u2019d ever\nhad a childhood, it hadn\u2019t lasted long. My father, may he rot in hell, had seen\nto that. I took his life as well and that, too, happened before I was old\nenough to be considered a grown man.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I never regretted it for a second.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That path almost led to my own\ngrave, and would have, if I hadn\u2019t stumbled across somebody who was as\ndifferent from my father as day was from night. Sarge had seen the monster\nlurking inside, so he took control, gave me guidelines, rules, so I wouldn\u2019t be\nthe monster my father had planned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It worked. I restrained the worst of\nmy rage and honed the skills that had been drilled into me\u2014theft, stealth\u2026\nassassination. The broken child ceased to exist and I became Spectre, an\nassassin spoken of in whispers, hired to take out the worst of humanity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then I was sent to kill <em>her<\/em>\u2026and\nmy world came to a screeching halt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>Tia<\/em><\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It\u2019s taken a long time, but I\nfinally had a nice, steady routine. I stopped trying to conform to the\nneurotypicals of the world and found my <em>own<\/em> normal.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Normal went out the window when I\nwalked into my kitchen and found a strange (<strong><em>hot<\/em><\/strong>), dangerous\nlooking (<strong><em>so fricking hot<\/em><\/strong>) man drugging my new dog.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It probably wasn\u2019t the smartest\nthing to leap at him like a banshee and attack, but that\u2019s what I did.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When my attempt to wreck the vehicle\nwas averted, my kidnapper didn\u2019t hurt or threaten me. In fact, he told me he\nwanted to protect me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This (<strong>hot<\/strong>) guy had to be\ncrazy. But if he was crazy, what did that make me? Because I believed him.\nMore, I found myself seeing something beyond the rigid, blank mask he wore. He\nkept trying to push me away, but I couldn\u2019t seem to keep my distance.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He calls himself a monster\u2026but when\nI look at him, that isn\u2019t what I see. I just see him\u2026and I know he\u2019s meant to\nbe mine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Warning: This isn\u2019t a snuggly, comfy\nread. The male MC is a hired killer, while the heroine is neuro-atypical. Some\ndark material is involved\u2014the hero kidnaps the heroine. There\u2019s also violence\nwhen he goes on a rampage against those who put a contract on her. Also\nreferences of abuse (not against the heroine). Also very graphic, erotic scenes\nwith minor bondage play.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-heading\"><strong><em>You will wander, you will roam<\/em><\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">SORIN: He is Zmeu, one of the great dragons of myth.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As a young dragon, he was told an important truth: Dragons do not fall in love. They definitely did not fall in love with mortal women.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It\u2019s a lesson Sorin takes to heart. He might have had a mortal mother, but mortals had also killed her, leaving him alone.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A dragon grown, he dwells in an impenetrable castle, living a dragon\u2019s best life. He dances with fae swan maidens, steals baubles from unknowing kings, scoffs at mortals stumbling through life wasting time on war, hate\u2026love.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then love finds him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the village of his birth, a woman teaches him a truth his dragon family hadn\u2019t\u2014it\u2019s rather easy for a dragon to love.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>Ever seeking solace, ever seeking home<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Easy to love, yes. But understanding her? Not so easy. Sorin\u2019s arrogance led to her death\u2026and a curse.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hundreds of years later, living in the New World as the world prepare for war, he is almost numb to the curse that haunts him still.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You will wander, you will roam, they\u2019d said. He did. But seeking solace, seeking home? Home and solace were lost to him, every bit as much as his love.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As penance, he guards the mortals in his territory, as she had protected those under her care. He\u2019ll hold off the coming war as long as possible. When the time comes to take up a sword\u2014or breathe fire\u2014he will. It\u2019s little comfort, but his lost love would expect him to protect. So he does.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One night, a sudden awareness yanks him from deepest sleep. Chasing the faint magical trail, he finds a woman battling for her life. Just before a killing strike, he sees her eyes\u2026eyes of haunting green.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The eyes of the woman he\u2019d loved, the eyes of the woman he\u2019d killed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cNobody else\nexists now. Just you and me. Do you understand me, Tia?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cYes.\u201d The\nhot green glitter in his eyes was terrifying, exciting and haunting. I pressed\nagainst him. \u201cI\u2019ll never mention another lover again.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">His eyes\nwidened. \u201cTia\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I bit his\nlip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cYou\u2019re\ninsane,\u201d he breathed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cYou\u2019ve made\nme this way. If I mention another lover again, will you spank me?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cNo. I think\nI\u2019m going to tie you up and finish fucking that ass just like you\u2019ve begged me\nto do.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I rolled my\neyes, but he had already left the bed and I sat back on my heels, confused. He\ndisappeared into the closet and reemerged in under a minute, something thin and\nblack in his hands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWhat is\u2026oh.\nYou\u2019re serious\u2026?\u201d My gaze darted from the cord in his hands up to his face.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cUnless you\ntell me no, right now.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I stayed\nquiet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cBend over\nthen. Show me your ass\u2026prove to me you still want it.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Shaking now,\nI bent over and he came up behind me, using the flat of his hand between my\nshoulder blades to push me lower until my cheek was against the bed. He caught\nmy wrists and dragged them behind my back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cSince you\nseem to enjoy taunting me, I\u2019ll do the same. The first time I tied a woman up,\nit was at the brothel in Germany. She kept touching me while I fucked her and I\ndidn\u2019t want her to. I don\u2019t like being touched\u2014ever. I grabbed her hands\nwithout even thinking about it. This was years ago. She giggled and said\nsomething about how she knew I\u2019d be a rough one. That laugh grated on my ears\nand I tuned her out just so I could finish us both off. It was my first trip there\nand when I was done, I was disgusted and disappointed.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He talked as\nhe worked, pausing from time to time and I\u2019d feel a tug on my wrists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe madame\nof the house saw me leaving and she knew something was wrong. She takes great\npride in her services and stopped me, asked me to join her for a drink. I did\nand when she asked what had displeased me, I told her. She suggested another\ngirl and that I tie her up. There\u2026you look perfect.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I tried to\nmove my wrists. There was enough give for me to wiggle, but there was no way I\ncould get free.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He fisted\nhis hand in my hair and pulled me upright, the pressure more intense than it\nhad been before, but it didn\u2019t hurt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He bit my\near, then scored my neck with his teeth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cUntil you,\nTia, I\u2019ve never fucked anybody without tying them up\u2014not since that night. I\nbind my partner, bend them over and fuck. Sometimes their pussy, sometimes\ntheir ass. I\u2019m never careless and I take care to give pleasure, although not\nbecause I give a flying fuck if my partner enjoys it. I don\u2019t want to hurt\nwhoever I\u2019ve selected for the night, but their pleasure isn\u2019t my concern. I\njust do it so I can continue to have a wide variety of partners to choose\nfrom.\u201d He rubbed his cock against the seam between my buttocks. \u201cAnd I don\u2019t\ncare if it\u2019s a man or a woman. I don\u2019t know if you could consider me bisexual\nbecause sexual attraction doesn\u2019t weigh into my need to silence the screams in\nmy head. I just request whoever is available and willing to take what I mete\nout\u2014being bound, submitting and kneeling so I don\u2019t have to look at them as I\nfuck.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He cupped my\nbreasts and plumped them together, fingers seeking out my nipples and squeezing\nuntil I gasped.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cDoes it bother you hearing that I\u2019ve fucked men as well as women? That I <em>enjoy<\/em> bending a man over and listening to him groan and gasp as I sink my dick into his ass?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cUm\u2026\u201d Blood\nrushed to my face, turning my skin painfully hot. \u201cNo\u2026it doesn\u2019t bother me.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At least not\nthe way he thought, but if he didn\u2019t stop <em>talking<\/em> about sex while I\nwaited here\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI do\nbelieve you\u2019re the first person I\u2019ve ever truly felt sexually attracted to.\nEverybody else has just been\u2026fuckable. Do you like hearing about past lovers?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThey\nweren\u2019t lovers,\u201d I whispered without thinking. \u201cI\u2019m the only lover you\u2019ve ever\nhad. Everybody else was just\u2026fuckable.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He tensed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I braced\nmyself for his reaction, mentally and emotionally. He\u2019d push me away again,\ntreat me to that cold, cool wall of his\u2014<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cYes,\u201d he\nwhispered against my ear. \u201cYou are.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">My mind went blank.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cYou\u2019re the only lover I\u2019ve ever had, likely the only one I ever will have.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Cover, buy links, etc&#8230;coming soon.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"text-align:center\"><em>This is a Patron-funded work. <\/em><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>All patrons receive an unfinished ARC epub copy early, regardless of level of donation<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Donation levels start at $1 and go up.
