~His hands returned to frame her face, his long fingers slipped into her hair. His touch was cold yet hot. On impulse, she nuzzled her cheek against his callused palm. A tiny sigh escaped her lips. His skin hummed with electricity, power. Unconsciously, her predatory instincts rose and her magic hungrily sought his aura, his energy—to feed.

He abruptly pulled away. Katya found the strength to lift her arms and blindly reached for him. No, she wanted to snarl, but couldn’t force the word out. Her fingertips brushed his unyielding chest drawing a harsh growl from him. A warning? She snapped her hands back. What had she been thinking? She knew better and attempted to utter an apology but again her voice refused to work.

“Take a deep breath. Go on. Inhale,” he urged from a distance.

She did.

“Exhale.”

She did. Again and again, she took in long cleansing breaths until the burning in her lungs faded.

“That’s good, dove,” he murmured.~

 

Description:

James Stonewoll is an Elite Assassin for the Under Realm Syndicate—an expert hunter and merciless killer. As a former pirate, he thrives on danger, the more perilous the mission, the better and he can't resist his newest contract: eliminate a rebel shape-shifting magic thief that stalks the border of the Under Realm kidnapping and murdering innocent Others. But never did the centuries old vampire anticipate playing hero to a mythical temptress with luscious curves, tantalizing lips, and hypnotic eyes.

Captured and held prisoner, Katya Moro was trapped in a seemingly endless loop of unimaginable agony as her magic was slowly being torn from her soul. A gasp away from death, she is rescued by a sinful kiss and awakens in the strong arms of a powerful warrior whose roguish smile, sharp fangs, and intense strength unlock dormant instincts within her, an all-consuming madness that demands complete surrender.
Gazing down at her, James knew he had to kill her. Dark Magic Wielders, like the beautiful female he’d found, were a grave threat to human society and were not permitted to roam the mortal world. But Katya’s smoky voice and sweet kisses stir a fierce hunger inside him. She is unpredictable, uncontrollable and wickedly seductive—his perfect kind of dangerous. To keep her safe, James will protect her from the magic thieves that hunt her and his fellow assassins until he can find a way to return Katya to her home in the Under Realm.
Can Katya’s passion conquer the darkness within his soul?
