Pounded in the Patch (Dark Nights Collection)

by Dana LeeAnn

"Welcome to your nightmare, night monster," he murmurs against my ear, his breath warm against the fake blood on my neck. "I hope you're ready to play."

My night monster. My obsession. My beautiful, brilliant addiction that I've spent endless time and money to possess.

This is about her, and us, and showing her that I will literally tear down mountains and rebuild forests to own every piece of her soul.

But by the end... by the end she didn't want to escape anymore. She wanted to be caught. She wanted to be claimed and to belong to someone who would burn the world for her."

The cost was more than most people's houses, but money means nothing when you're building an empire for the woman who owns your soul.

And she is safe. Safer than she's ever been in her life. Because I would kill anyone who tried to hurt her. I would burn down cities to keep her from harm.

"You deserve a man who will create magic for you, who will love every corner of your soul, who will spend his life making sure you never doubt how extraordinary you are."

Forever in whatever beautiful madness we create together.
