Forced Proximity

Chains, blindfold, concrete floor.

That's all Philip knows when he wakes up trapped in a stranger’s basement. As a Sub, he's familiar with the implements, but this man isn’t his Dom nor is there any indication why he’s taken Philip prisoner. In fact, the man won’t utter a single word.

But the power dynamic is clear, and Philip is well versed in doing whatever he’s told. At least, he is with his jealous, demanding, Dom Koray. Even without Koray present, Philip is bound by his power, and forced to obey his will.

Which might cause a very big problem, because Philip’s new owner isn’t willing to share his affection.

There's a simple hierarchy in the world; youkai exist to kill humans and hunters exist to kill youkai. As the daughter of a hunter Lilith knows this well, but she didn't expect her life to shatter at the revelation of a dark secret. She is a youkai.

Now, with her life in ruins and facing execution, Lilith must abandon everything she knows. Under cover of darkness, Lilith flees to the port city, searching for a boat headed for Eden, the ringed city at the center of the world. There she hopes to start a new life for herself. But when she sells her spare ticket to a stoic woman named Pandora, she couldn't imagine she was inviting a hunter on the journey with her.

Now, Lilith will have to hide her identity if she hopes to live. A task made more difficult when the two women grow closer and Lilith develops feelings for someone she can never be with.

I'm Xirasti a pure demon that lives in hell. When I was a child on accident I found an angel trapped in the bottom of a cavern. From the first moment I saw him he was mystical and enchanting. As I grew older he became beautiful and had me enraptured. Then I set him free. Things did not go as expected.

What I do know is:

I almost died for him.
I burned for him.
I bled for him.
I sacrificed for him.
I deceived for him.
I stole for him.
I longed for him.

Then once he is free I do them all over again and again. Because Sam, I'd follow him anywhere. What better reason is there to sacrifice yourself for someone other than love?

"Right now you're saying those things. Because I'm your flavor of the moment. Cookies and Cream for instance." Megan says her blue eyes piercing his. "What if I said cookies and cream is my favorite flavor?" Gavin trails his thumb over her bottom lip. "And I would really love to taste your cream." He says while leaning in and whispering breathily into her ear.
