A Dark Sci-Fi Romance My mate was taken from me. It's time I took her back. Eight years ago Annabella was given to me. Primitive, irresistible need compelled me to claim her, but it was not just instinct that drove me to punish her defiancé and ravage her beautiful body so thoroughly and savagely. Every screaming climax was a brand marking her as mine. But she was stolen from me, her memory wiped clean by the same madman who gave her to me. Now she is back on this planet, and this time when I take her I'm going to make sure I keep her.
