The Fated and the Damned (The Cursed Blood, #2)

by Chloe Hodge

I was beneath a heated glare or icy indifference, like I was no longer worth the effort of her feelings, good or bad. And that was the harshest pain I’d ever felt.

I’d never meant to fall for her, but she’d branded herself on my heart like a scar that would forever mark my flesh.

She was an utter fool, and a fool in power was more dangerous than most.

There was nothing I wouldn’t do to get her back. I would raise the dead, walk through hell and back for that woman. If she was a monster, I was too. And so long as she was by my side, I was perfectly ok with that.

“Want is a base desire, and what I feel for you goes far beyond that. I need you like I need air to breathe, and sustenance to keep me nourished. You are both my biggest failure, and the biggest victory I might ever achieve. I can’t do this without you. I won’t.”
