Urban Decay (Darkly Mine Season One #4)

I've existed for the past century doing the lowly jobs the Family assign me. Reeling from the loss of yet another mortal lover, I jump at the chance to climb the ranks and leave my grief behind. This is the opportunity to be someone, perhaps even to find someone to remain as my loving companion as I face down eternity. I don't expect Fate to throw a curveball in the form of Shannon, a person so pure, I can't help but fall head over heels for him. Unwilling to sully Shannon with the knowledge of our kind, I find I'm also unable to make myself let him go. When I'm called to meet Arrakus, the being from the Void who Made my Father, I discover that this second chance isn't everything I thought it would crack up to be. Assuming the life of the dead too soon River Montgomery was one thing, Bonding physically and mentally to a shape-shifting Kraken was quite another. Keeping Shannon safe is my priority, though, and I know one thing won't change, no matter what. I'll do anything, anything at all, to save him. Warning: These books are for adult readers who enjoy stories where lines between right and wrong get blurry. High heat, twisted and tantalizing, these are not for the fainthearted.
