Her pain will not go unpunished… For years I’ve wanted her from a distance, refusing to allow her entrance into my dark world. I thought I was doing the right thing, that it was the only way to keep her safe. I was wrong. If I had known what was happening right under my nose, I would have claimed her sooner. Locked her away in a tower, away from the nightmare that plagued her without my knowledge. But now I know the truth, and Jessica Adkins will be mine. Her body will know only my touch, feel only the pleasure I can give her. And if he comes for her again, if he dares to lay a finger on what is mine, I cannot be held responsible for what happens next.
