What force of nature is more dangerous than love? Desire.

Desire is just as potent as love but more deadly and the high is so addictive that most would say the consequences are worth it. Most except for Julian Doyle. He's guilty of both Love and Desire, and because of this recklessness, he has watched the world change for over a century.

Cion has lived her life with the knowledge that the world is not as it seems. Sprites, ghosts, and demons live among the masses, and she is one of the 'lucky' few to know it. 

Cion and Julien are two completely different supernatural beings. Will they be able to withstand the forces trying to keep them apart? 

***

To kiss him sober is out of my league. But somehow with all these excuses, I still close my eyes and brace for him. I want to feel the heat of his lips but feel nothing. His breath is on my ear as he mutters, "Your name is beautiful."

Poisoned By Desire

I’ve been at Julien’s place now for two days and admittedly, it’s been nice. I wake up to him and go to sleep when he’s already at work. He is so understanding about the issues between my aunt and me.


I left out the part about me wanting to cast a revival spell and summon the devil, but hey, I was mostly honest. There was no point in involving him any further than I already had. Lex had come by twice to check up on me and meet Julien. I was so nervous about what would happen, that I chewed through an entire pack of gum by myself.


Lex likes him and thought he is way more gorgeous in person. I told her that I’d met some chick at the club claiming to be Julin’s friend, but the look he gave her would have cut her to fine ribbons if looks could kill. Lex told me it was probably an ex-girlfriend trying to feel me out.
