The Demon Gate #6
Lovelorn
“It’s one thing to know that I’m a knight in King Adriel’s court, but it’s another thing to know what that really means.”
I’ve had one successful mission that I managed to complete by the skin of my… well, let’s just say that I wouldn’t have been able to do it without Raphael’s help. He’s become a huge part of my life now and after learning even more about myself and what my role is in our relationship, let’s just say that I think I’m adjusting rather well, considering the circumstances. On top of my personal issues—and I have plenty—the Society has tasked me with another mission. No rest for the wicked, and I do find that I’m enjoying my wickedness even more now that I’m a demon. Nonetheless, I’ve been assigned to a case where a demon is killing and feeding on a bunch of innocent people who seemed to just be a little down on their luck in the love department. Well, that just doesn’t sit well with me and I’m making it my business to bring this demon to my dinner table.
This serial contains strong adult content not meant for sensitive eyes. The novelettes in this serial will be filled with dark, twisted, raunchy and steamy scenes between powerful, sexy men that will either offend you or get ya revved up. This series will not be pulling any punches, and it won’t apologize for hurting your feelings, either. You’ll find no fluff and ruffles here. These demons play hard and they fight dirty.

Brian and Raphael will have a romantic Valentine's day after they get rid off a vicious demon.
Pretty cool, but I think (especially) Raphael has fallen in love too fast.

Just a sweet Valentine's story. Quite romantic Raphael taking Brian to Italy for some chocolate dripping strawberries.
and some.... Ah well ;)
Love to see the men falling more and more for each other!
This installment was really about introducing new people to the series. Nothing new really accurs other than meeting yet another demon again.
This time the Baharé. Quite scary what he did to impersonate Raphael. Did.not.see.that.coming.
Eagerly awaiting next installment. Can't wait to find out what the hell a woman is doing on MY Demon Gate Series book!!!

Another incredible series from Nicholas Bella with loads of twisted plotting, evil doings and awesome sexy times!

Got to love me some Nicholas Bella, since the first book Chained in Darkness, its been a ongoing awesome experience. As soon as one book is done, I lay in wait for the next.
Lovelorn, another chapter in Brians growing pains, a typical male has to do things his way. Right now he's looking for a real baddie that feeds on human sorror and heart ache. This demon wont be easy, Brian was smart enough to ask for help this time.
Brian as struggled with his new life and all that entails, you can almost see his wheel turning as he replays how it all started. A kiss here, a warning there, being topped, being the bottom. A fight against good and evil. A powerful King sexy and dominate to boot.
As always loved the storyline, Nicholas shows a bit of twisted mixed with sane, dirty hot. Nicholas..You go boy! *smiles* Great read! Recommended and Enjoyed

Love Brian and Raphael
In this book of the series Brian is assigned a new mission, to take out a serial killer that liquifies his victims insides, who is actually a demon, taking out innocents who are down on their luck on love and just recently came out of relationships. As Brian notices the last two victims came from a couples therapy group, he tries to infiltrate the group and get the demon before another innocent victim loses their life. With Raphael on his side supporting him, he can accomplish almost anything.

Heart's Day Romp! 💘
It is Valentine's day and Brian is on a mission to find a killer that is turning the insides of the victims to "soup." **squicky squick factor 😝
I love how each installment brings Brian and Raphael closer. Brian is still learning to embrace his agato and the powers that come with that.
I also loved in this story how the guys got to be sweet and romantic. Made this old lady smile.😊💖

Knights of passion
Brian's on another case and, doesn't know what he's up against, again. What he thinks he know is where to find it. Will he kill the demon or will Raphael save the day?

Demons in love? Hmmm
Another killer thriller. I am really enjoying following Brian as he comes into his own, demonicly and sexually. Bella has masterfully taken me on a ride with his craft again.

When I discovered how that demon fed, I was thoroughly grossed out. It fucked its victim first, somehow forcing secretions into the vagina or anus, then waited for its special sauce to melt the person’s organs away while they were still alive, suffering the entire time.
Yikes.

I'm alert now!!! Did not see that coming AT ALL!!!
OK...so this one was a little off track. Honestly this should be numbered #5.5 as it really is not a continuation of the Demon Gates Series but a side story with our main characters set on Valentine's Day. Written for the Hearts Afire Anthology, the entire first 25% is essentially a recap of the story thus far. I mean I get it, but as the disclaimer states, unless you have read the series, you really need to not read this. But alas, this entire opening was written for those who know nothing about this story. BORING!!!
Then the "plot". Well as my 50% update states, I was still bored...then...
Yeah...I was knocked for a loop and did not see that coming at all. So yeah, it picked up. And with Raphael in a hot pair of jeans and an impromptu trip to Italy, we finally get to the goods.
But honestly...this one fell flat and even their hot asses couldn't pick it up enough to make this one work for me.
I'll be ready for a real installment as our plot and swoonworthy moments between these two men continue.

Bella has a cover!!!!!!!

Hoping this gets a cover and a separate option to purchase outside this Anthology, but regardless I am happy to support the cause.

Very Short! But Good.
I know the story focuses on Brian overcoming his sexual identity and its hookups, but I feel the author is glancing over the demon storyline with quick finishes and general details. I just discovered that there is another book, so hopefully I can get an understanding of what demon is trying to kill King Adriel and become the new Demon King of the 8th Level of Hell. It's great that Raphael and Brian are becoming close, but I want more action, drama and supernatural, post-apocalyptic suspense from the next book, Book 7: Chance. Hopefully, I can get my life from the new book! Lol

If you are a really kinky soul that enjoys hot demon sex than this series is going to light your internal fires.The world building is extraordinary & since each novelette in this series is a small slice of heaven or more precisely in this case a glimpse of hell it makes the reading more pleasurable & easier to follow. The two main characters Raphael & Brain are relatively good soul sucking mated demons who like to burn bad guys if they are not already eating their souls.Each book is better than the one that came before & I only wish they were longer.

The next book in Nicholas Bella’s Demon Gates series is just as fabulous as all the rest. Each addition in this collection becomes more powerful.
I absolutely love seeing Brian and Raphael getting stronger in their bond. I’m SO HAPPY Brian is accepting Raphael and I was all blushy and excited when the word LOVE was getting thrown around. *sigh*
I look forward to the next episode in this thrilling, sexy, and mysterious series!

How do some sexy demons spend their Valentine's Day? Especially these two demons? I love to read about Brian and Raphael and when they got steamy and messy while getting closer to each other, damn thats a hot and sexy adventure you don't want to miss!

Sweet
We get a nice recap. Brian us starting to realize his feelings for Raphael are much stronger, is it love. Valentine's day story. Italy, strawberries and demon champagne. I hate to wait for next book but it's so good.

3.5 stars Fun story that is PWP. I wish there was more plot here, because the author has great ideas. But they are used as merely a candy wrapper for the sex. I liked it anyway, and will read the series.

Learning
So new lessons are learned and so much more to understand. Brien is falling more and more in love with Raphael.
