Curse of Shadows and Thorns (The Broken Kingdoms, #1)

by L.J. Andrews

“The only hands I consider capable are my own.” Legion lifted one brow, a playful gleam in his eyes. “Ah, but you have never experienced what mine can do.”

“Seemed fitting. Kindness on the outside.” Mattis touched one of the blossoms, dragging his finger to the hilt of the dagger. “A warrior on the inside.”

“You cannot be rid of me so easily, Kvinna.”

“I may know my name, but I have yet to question for whom my heart beats.”

I care for you, want you, more than I care to breathe.
