Through this story of thirst and desire, Layla is pushed to her limit and challenged on how far she would go to satiate the man that she is falling for.

He brought that beautiful mouth to her lips, but only teased her with a whisper of a kiss. He then ducked his head to the juncture of her neck. She gasped as the sharpness of his teeth grazed her throat.

The Blood Curse

"That soul is you, Layla," Niniane said softly. "You are the reincarnation of Alita Vonpor. The woman that Atreus fell in love with centuries ago."


Layla’s head was spinning at Niniane’s words and she felt like she was falling. If Niniane was right, it was why Ravana kept calling her Alita. 


"No," Layla said with a shake of her head. "That can't be right." 


"I wouldn't lie about something like this, Layla," Niniane said softly. "It was only a matter of time before your two souls found one another again. I'm just surprised it took as long as it did." 


"You're wrong," Layla said desperately. "Atreus doesn't love me. I'm nothing but a meal to him. He's proven that much."


"I'm afraid it's even more complicated than that," Niniane muttered, refilling their glasses. 


Layla picked it up and took a long drink, not ready to hear anymore.
