Prologue
She was his ruin. Now, he is her inevitable end.
Mia Marlowe once held the match that reduced Damian Veyr’s world to ashes. She burned his legacy, destroyed his future, and left him with nothing but a map of scars and a soul turned Ice cold. She thought she had buried him. She thought she had out run the ghost of the warehouse. But she will soon realize just how wrong she was.
Damian has returned, but the man Mia once knew. the man she had accidentally fallen for years ago. He has been devoured by something far more dangerous. He is a Phantom, a predator forged in the dark, and refined by years of cold, and calculated hunger. He hasn't returned with the force of an army; he has come back with a cold calculated nightmare. He is weaving a web around her life, one quiet, and terrifying threat at a time.
A heart stopping message left in her dead boalted apartment. A shadow that vanishes the moment she draws her weapon. The suffocating certainty that she is no longer the hunter, but a prize being prepared for the slaughter.
He swore to hate her until his very last breath, but that slowly begin to wither. Now every time their paths collide, the air between them intensifies with a desire so sharp it draws blood. His eyes promise her total and utter destruction while his touch demands an absolute, soul-deep possession. He doesn't want her apologies, and he definitely doesn't want her heart.
He wants her broken, unmade, and screaming for a mercy he traded away years ago.
Mia is a detective. She is trained to see the truth, but Damian is a master of the lies. As Mia and Damion spiral uncontrollably into a dance of impending violence and soul stopping obsession, a terrifying truth crushes down. He needs her just as much as he wants to destroy her from existence. Between the blood and the betrayal, they are locked in a game of whoever is the first to feel loses.
You are now entering a world of moving shadows and bloody-soaked secrets, love isn't a sanctuary in this book, Its a battlefield.
Revenge is a slow-acting poison. Desire is a sharpened blade. And the fire that started in the warehouse is now finally coming to claim the rest of her world.
