Griffin's looking for a fresh start. After a chance encounter with a stranger who knew about who or what he is than Griffin did, he moves to Sutton to find out more about the beast inside him. The last thing he expects or wants is to meet another like him, one that threatens to bring out the monster within he's kept locked up for so long. When Kali disappears from her home while recovering from a vicious attack, nobody knows where she's gone or who's taken her. A rarity among her shifter community, and shunned because of the prophecy around her, there are plenty that would be happier if she was never found. If Kali's going to escape, she's going to have to do it alone. Griffin didn't grow up around here. Raised as a human, he knows nothing of curses, but he does know how he reacts whenever Kali is near. She's his, even the beast he keeps locked inside him agrees on that one. He'll will move heaven and earth to get Kali back to her family, even if it kills him. Dark monster romance with some primal play. Dual POV with lots of heat.
