    Summary

    Jinu has been Gwi-Ma's slave for centuries.

    A pet, equally tortured and prized. He doubted he'd ever be let out of his cage.

    Until the day he finds himself offered up as a gift—tribute, bribe, trap—to the demon lord's heir, a Hunter-raised half-blood demon called Rumi who hates him and what he represents on-sight. He half-expects her to send him back to the Underworld in pieces.

    Rumi sees his presence as a death sentence for her. It's becoming hard enough to hide her patterns from Mira and Zoe. How is she supposed to hide a demon-gift sent by the demon lord of the Underworld?

    He's clearly a trap, one that leaves her with no good choices. Every subsequent decision seems to magnify her patterns and drag her deeper into her demon heritage.

    What to do? Hide him? Kill him? Contain him? Or...help him?

    Could a demon with no feelings really deserve her help? Or is there more to it than she's been led to believe? And is trying to find out really worth the risk to Rumi, her friends, and the Honmoon?

    Summary

    Bruce opened the door and saw red. Red hair, wet and plastered to a scarred forehead. Red lips, still showing the raw signs of having been burned. Red blood saturating the familiar grey-and-white uniform of Arkham Asylum. "Jerome Valeska," he murmured.

    “I didn’t –” His voice was even raspier than usual. “Didn’t know – where else –”

    Summary

    Rowan Gold knew there were three certain things in life: death, taxes and his innate inability to be loved. Which is why he hardly believed it when he found himself, pushing fifty and a pariah in the town he lived in, sparking with the local town librarian, after an accidental public touch that left them both reeling. Belle French was everything he wasn't: beautiful, kind and loved. And now a stone around his neck he can't wait to rid himself of. Love made you sick, after all. Made you weak.

    Summary

    Natasha sits down next to him, her shoulder brushing his, and Clint does not flinch. He flexes the fingers of his right hand. He can control his body enough for this. It doesn't stop him from feeling a crawling in that arm, like ants beneath his skin. He has to fight the urge to pull away. It's not easy.
