Thane’s Demon by Stephanie Hudson

I didn’t want this.
I didn’t ask for this life. But more than anything, I didn’t ask for this…Demon.
The bane of my existence.
Of course, I had tried to beat him into submission. To calm the raging need to constantly control me. I had tried it all. The only thing to work…to consume the essence of misery.
To feed from the degenerate souls this city had to offer. So, I lived amongst the worst of the worst. A buffet of sinful mortals to appease the darkness inside me.
That was…until there was light.
A mortal so pure that her soul blinded me.
I wanted to hate her. I wanted to break her. I wanted to consume her.
But most of all…

My demon wanted to claim her.I didn’t want this.
