Dark Wants

An obsessive dark romance by Catherine Stokes

Lila Monroe just wanted to survive senior year. Stay invisible. Graduate. Escape her suffocating home and the small-town whispers that cling like smoke. But the shadows were already watching.

Julian Voss doesnt talk. He doesnt smile. And he doesnt let go.

Hes the boy who lurks behind locked eyes and darker secrets.

He knows Lila-her schedule, her sadness, her smiles that dont reach her eyes.

She once saved him with nothing more than a glance.

Now?

Hell ruin anyone who dares to touch her.

Even if that someone is her.

When danger from the past resurfaces in the form of Damien Mercer, Julian steps fully into the light-violent, possessive, and wholly obsessed.

He claims her.

Dominates her.

Worships her with a brutality that borders on madness.

And Lila?

She should run.

But she cant.

Because nothing has ever felt more right than his hands around her throat, his voice in her ear, and his love in the form of control.

He doesnt just want her. He needs her.

And need, in Julians world, is obsession.

Desire is domination.

And love... is a beautiful, bloody war.
