Kiss The Dark

Sold into marriage to a reclusive man. Megan is dragged to a clandestine midnight ceremony and delivered to Gabriel North. Megan must spend 30 days married to Mr. North before she may finally be free forever. The only problem is that he marries every year only to annul the marriage and his brides are never heard from again. No one knows anything about him except that he is extraordinarily wealthy, and he has an estate high on the mountain above the city that no one is brave enough to visit. Before this Megan Steele had the perfect life. She was a wealthy heiress from a prominent family. Her days were filled with family, travel, parties, and society. Expected to marry at eighteen but unable to bear the thought of leaving her perfect life she turned down one offer of marriage after another. Four years and four suitors rejected, Megan has been proposed to for a fifth time. The suitor is the son of her father's investment partner. Megan made a fatal error with this refusal and placed her desire for freedom above her father's company. She finds herself sold into a forced marriage to Mr. Gabriel North to recoup her father's investment funds. More than that though, Megan swears there is something dark about Mr. North, something dangerous, something otherworldly. Where is the staff that keeps caring for them? How does his house keep changing? Why did his friend call him sire?

Broken Heart

"We will need a complete buffer zone around her at all times." Afton supplied as he read over Sam's shoulder.

"Perhaps, she would give up her sword, so we know she won't try to fight." Gabriel thought out loud.

Both Sam and Afton turned to stare at Gabriel. "You have actually met Megan, right?" Sam asked.

"Okay, dumb idea." Gabriel huffed. He wanted to forbid her to go and that be the end of it, but it would never work. He couldn't force his will on her any longer and it was very frustrating.

Gabriel laughed aloud. "I was just thinking how frustrating it is that I can't just make her do what I want. Turn about's fair play. Now she controls everything, and I finally know what it feels like. I'm not loving it."

"You need to trust her. Megan's instincts are generally spot on. I have spent more time with her than you. You need to try to trust her." Sam told his brother seriously.
