I walked the land for ages, fighting monsters, collecting coin, and keeping humanity safe even when they turned their backs on me long ago. An innocent human girl, especially one on the run, should have been of no interest to me. Beasts like me weren’t meant to find love. When I found her fighting for her life, I took matters into my own hands. I made a vow to protect her, and I mean to keep it, even if that means stripping her bare, marking her bottom with my belt, and forcing one heart-stopping climax from her beautiful body after the next as many times as necessary to convince her that she’s mine. I can protect her from the world, but no one is going to protect her from a monster like me. Publisher's Note: Dark Beast includes spankings and rough, intense sexual scenes. If such material offends you, please don't buy this book.
