Painted in the Shadows

Octavia Simmons was mine from the moment I pulled her lifeless body from the cold depths of the bay. My need to protect her morphed into a desire to possess her. Every moment feeds my obsession. Now that she's irrevocably tied to me I'll never let her go.

Leif Black is a beautiful but dangerous man. He exists without a moral compass, living on the fringes of society. He claims he took me in the night to protect me but as secrets unfold I realize he might be the biggest monster of them all.
