I thought my life was finished when I was taken from my home with chains shackled around my ankles and dragged into the depths of the Dark Realm Monster Market. I was a human woman, alone, terrified, and surrounded by fanged monsters with hungry, gleaming eyes. I was also prey, a fragile little thing to be bought and sold. I knew my life was over, but then an unlikely savior took me as his. Blaylock.
Ruler of the kingdom of the Dark Realm of Shadow Vale. He was a hulking beast with gray skin, thick, curling horns, and eyes as black as the void. I should have been afraid of him. I should have recoiled from his very visage. But his glare-although fiercely terrifying-was filled with possessive heat whenever he looked at me. He didn't save me because he was good. He saved me because I was his. And when he whisked me to his kingdom, when he showed me not all beasts were monsters I was to fear, the more I felt myself warming and softening to him.
And the longer I stayed with him, the more I realized I didn't want to leave.
