Captive in the Dark (The Dark Duet, #1)

by C.J. Roberts

People often believed they were safer in the light, thinking monsters only came out at night.

“Where is all your bravery now, Pet? No clawing, no hissing? Where’s my tough girl?” My heart sank into my stomach. I had no idea where my bravery had gone. Had I ever really been brave? I don’t think so.

This isn’t a romance. You’re not a damsel in distress, and I’m not the handsome prince come to save you. You ran. I went to collect my property. End of story.
