[Mafia Monsters 03] • Vampire's Promise

He captured my hand and kissed my palm. “If anything happens to me they’ll take care of you.”

Tears shimmered in my eyes, like a damn burst inside me.

A car crash finally igniting.

He was the flames.

They were all the flames. Burning inside me like a damn inferno.

He stretched my arm over my head. I lifted the other in instinct, feeling his fingers grip my wrist. I’d never been so turned on…so agonizingly desperate for a man to consume me.

“You are ours.” He warned. “Say it…say who you belong to.”

“You.” My heart blazed as I whispered. “I belong to all of you.”

They promised to keep me alive.

They promised to keep me safe.

But what happens when death is payment for a debt I never knew?

Death or an eternity in servitude?

The Costello’s are steeped in betrayal.

Lies and corruption taint my family’s bloodline, owing debts to monsters more dangerous than the Vampires I love.

Now the Inner Circle has come to collect.

Only I won’t go easy. To protect those I love I’ll fight for them a thousand times over…if need be I’ll die as well.

In a dark alley I face down my corrupt past. I have one small chance to keep us alive. As my thoughts turn to those I love; Elithen, Hurrow, Justice, Rule and my savage Unseelie bodyguard, Russell, I pray we make it…hearts and lives intact.
