CYN
I met him the night three men tried to hurt me.
Sasha Melnikov appeared wearing a skull mask... beautiful, brutal, merciless.
He made sure they never would again.
Then he looked at me.
And every instinct screamed to run.
But instead of killing me, he took me home.
He said I was safe.
He lied.
Because safety doesn’t watch you like you’re something to be consumed.
It doesn’t make you crave the very thing that could destroy you.
He’s danger wrapped in devotion, violence made human, and I can’t seem to stay away.
SASHA
Cyn believes she has a choice.
She’s wrong.
She was never meant to be free of me.
From the moment I saw her, I wanted her name carved into my skin, her scent in my lungs, her blood in my veins.
She’s the only thing that’s ever made the chaos quiet.
The only part of me that’s still human.
And if the world tries to take her from me...
I’ll show them how slowly I can work a knife.
