A Slave To The Evil Count

There is a thin line between love and hate, who knew when it started to fade between us. Earl of Gravestone is the most dangerous man of the WhiteThrone Empire. Not because he is strong enough to kill them without thinking twice. But he deals in secrets. Secrets that could destroy the peace standing on the thin ice sheets over a flooding river. But he had not gotten all this wrapped up as a gift by his family. He had earned it. Earned to show that one woman that he was worth choosing. To show that he was strong and loved. and he definitely had forgotten her after she left him for another man. Except that… he did not. He was still clutched by her memories to the limit that it hurt him when he breathed. So what would happen if the newest secret he found was…. Her husband was a traitor. If he wants, he could break her life. But would he? The deepening shadow of the crimes he had committed and the darkness within him wanted to devour her. But a tiny part that still remembered her love wanted to save her at the same time. Who would win in the end?

A Mere Possession

"You are to continue the investigation. I do not care what it would take but I want all of those rebellions to die at once. Kill them in the most brutal way." Lenhart nodded slowly. His eyes still bowed, making Edward smile.

"And if you need that girl, you can have her. It will be a little gift from my side." he added, waiting for Lenhart to react. 

Lenhart's words might hold a value, but Edward was not a fool to believe that the girl had no hand in it. 

The madness he had seen today was never seen before in his eyes. The way his hands clenched even for a second was enough for Edward to know and smirk.

He swept his eyes over the long line of the gifts with a bored look.

"Are you going to dump all the gifts here so that you do not need to meet my sister?" he asked with a bored look, but Lenhart was not a fool to take his expressions at the face value.

He shook his head.
