Reid Javernick had everything that society would deem to make him happy. He had a successful business, enough women at his fingertips, a handful of really close friends and of course a house fit for a movie set. But despite everything he just wasn't happy.
And then he met Sunn Carter. She was the alluring devil who turned his world upside down and rejected him more times than he could count!
He knew she was meant to be his mate but how could he convince her of that? Could he trust her with a secret that not even his closest friends knew?

"That scent would haunt him for the rest of his life. It was a delicious scent of crushed red petals mixed with expensive white wine. A scent that invaded his dreams night after night. And there she was sitting in his office, staring expectantly up at him with inquisitive liquid blue eyes.
He moistened his lips and said the two words that would make him both the happiest and saddest man at the same time, though he was yet to know that.
"You're hired.""

HIS CHOSEN ONE

Every insult he hurled at me made the tears sting at the back of my eyes. A sob threatened to escape, and I held it back. The words hurt more than the actual slap did. I knew what I had been doing was wrong, but with Sunn it just felt so right. Almost perfect in a sense, like bread and jam. Wasn't I allowed one morsel piece of happiness? Did he have to snatch that away, too? 


I dashed away at a tear that had somehow managed to trickle down my cheek. Only he had the power to break me and make me feel completely useless. I hated that about him. He made me feel nothing. 


"I gave you one simple fucking task!" he barked, "and what did you do? You messed it up. I knew I should have called your sister. She at least would have been more competent." And there went the last of my dignity when he was finished spitting that last sentence in my face.
