The Demons We Hide (Scorpion Kings #2)

by Lucy Smoke

She is no longer just Lex’s obsession—she’s all of ours.

Poor baby must be losing her mind every time she realizes her attempts to block us are rejected.

What girl wants to get off with a knife in her cunt? The answer is simple: our girl. A Scorpion Girl.

Every piece of her is perfect because every piece belongs to me.

"You're a Scorpion Girl now, Juliet Donovan."

I stride into the very woods that I’d once sent Lex and Gio into to save her from herself—my brave, stupid girl.

I was born to hunt her.

Everything bad that could ever happen to me has already happened.

So she thinks..

"Take my gifts. Take something." He practically begs in that low, sexual tone. "Take everything."

Lex’s breath is warm against the skin of my temple and then my ear, making me shiver. “I want you to be mine, Juliet,” he whispers. “I want to claim you, own you, let you own me too.”

Some stalkers lose interest with their obsession when they finally get what they want. They’re more into the chase than the actual woman, but not Lex.

I love her. We love her. We’ll never let anything bad happen to her again. She’s ours. She’s safe.

Alexio Medicci is stalking me and I never had any clue.

“I really wish you hadn’t opened that door.”
