Sanctum is LIVE!

A taste from Sanctum:

The little brat’s so fucking predictable. I didn’t know how fast she was, though.

As soon as she escapes her useless brother, she heads for the hallway. I shove him out of the way and march past him, stepping into the hallway after her. She’s already ten feet ahead of me, running like a scared little bunny from a hungry wolf into the night.

Run, little girl, run.

I roll up my sleeves as I watch her choose where to go next. Her mother’s yelling behind me, something unintelligible in Italian. Her father’s cursing and her brother’s righting himself and muttering.

Italians. Always dramatic about fucking everything.

I march toward the door when I see a flourish of honey-blonde hair exiting. She’s a pretty little thing, and she looks a lot more wholesome in person than I’d expect, being a Bianchi. Sun-kissed hair, high cheekbones, a curvy little body dressed impeccably in designer clothing.

Figures she’s a runner.

Unfortunately for her, so am I.

I give her a little bit of a lead. Let her think she can win, that she can outrun me. I’ll catch her, and when I do, I’ll punish her for this.

Win, win.

A wedding gift, tied up in a neat little bow.

I turn the corner of the house and call my driver. Vas answers on the first ring.

“You see her?”

“Girl running, heading this way?”

“Yeah.”

The second I got one look at the way Bianchi brought her to me, I knew she was the type they’ve been pushing around. I don’t fucking care about someone I don’t know, but I won’t let the Bianchis pull one over on me either. I knew if I left her even for a day, she’d be out of here.

I won’t go home empty-handed.

I scan the estate grounds and at first don’t see her. It’s dark out but thankfully there’s a full moon. In a stream of moonlight I see a flash of pale skin and gorgeous legs.

I’m after her. I’m faster than she is, but she knows the layout, which will give her an advantage in the dark.

We’ll play a little game of cat and mouse. I’ve always loved the thrill of the chase.

Blurb:
When I run, he always chases.

Where I go, he always follows.

Primal, Powerful, Possessive.

Aleksandr Romanov is my nemesis...

And my new husband.


He thinks I’m the spoiled mafia princess.

That I have the world at my fingertips.

I may be his new wife,

But he doesn’t know the real me.

No one does.


But when Aleksandr touches me,

He cuts me wide open,

As if trying to see the secrets I hide.


Every touch becomes foreplay,

Every look stokes our passion.

Our hatred turns to obsession.


But when he unearths the secrets I’ve kept well hidden from the world…

I have nowhere left to hide.

No one to save me from the truth,

No one to save me from my enemies…

No one to save me from the only man I’ve ever loved.
