Blood of My Monster (Monster Trilogy, #1)

by Rina Kent

“Does joking include a bloody nose and lips, soldier?” He’s asking Matvey, but he’s still looking at me. “Sometimes, yes, sir,” Matvey replies confidently like the lowlife he is. “Very well.” The captain finally pushes back, but before I can breathe properly, he swings his fist and punches Matvey across the face so hard, he reels back from the power of it.

“Are you blushing, Sasha?” I try to swallow, but it gets stuck at the base of my throat, so I just shake my head once. “Your skin looks red.” “That’s because…I’m hot.” “That you are.” My heart beats so hard, I’m surprised it doesn’t jump from its confinements and lay itself at his feet. “W-what?” “What?” I can’t say it. I want to, but I just can’t. He just called me hot. I heard it, but I’m not sure if it’s real or if my head is playing tricks on me.

“Look at who owns you, Solnyshko. Look at how your body submits to me as if it was made for me. You are mine, and you will always be fucking mine. You’ll never belong to anyone else but me.”
