Book Blurb:
Take a girl like Columbia,
put her in a vastly different life with a man unlike anyone she's ever known. Throw
in Dimitri's nightmares, the Concierge's disdain for Dimitri's new house guest
and a few hundred people looking high and low for the both of them...and it
makes for a very interesting read.
Picking up at the end of the last chapter, this novella covers the time until the Epilogue from the first bestselling novel in this series, The Beast.
Two twisted and imperfect beings must adjust to their new lives together while avoiding detection from authorities and an international crime ring.
***As with the first novel in this series, this story covers dark themes with graphic sex, murder and violence.

Excerpt:
“I don’t see how we can expect to
travel around and not change my appearance,” Columbia said for the hundredth time
since they returned from their horrible encounter.
“I will not have you destroying your
hair because of that monster you killed,” he replied. His voice let her know he
wasn’t in the mood for argument. “It’s
bad enough he drove you to destroy your body and almost destroyed your soul.”
“I just think it would be better if
I tried it for a year or two. I could cut it short and go blonde. Maybe get
contact lenses?” she asked, trying to get him to think about this from a logical
standpoint. She knew he loved her hair, but if she was going to be recognized
then it made sense to change something. She thought about Eden’s pink locks and
added, “I could go pink even,” and smiled.
He looked at her, smirked and said,
“You would not look good in pink, little dove.” He reached for her and pulled
her towards him on the chaise.
“How do you know?” she asked, “pink
might be my colour.” She wiggled up to snuggled into the crook of his arm. She
loved him more for standing up against the stranger earlier.
“I think red is your colour,” he
said and ran his hand along her back. She shivered at his touch, still in awe
of the effect he had on her.
“Red?” she asked. “I never wear
red.”
“I was talking about your ass,” he
replied and chuckled, a low mirthful noise that rumbled in his massive chest.
“The stripes I lay on it with the crop. Or the marks I leave with my bare
hands.”
“Oh...that,” she said and squirmed against
him, thinking about the crazy sensation of being held down and punished.
How pain,
being her constant companion, had finally become her closest ally under
his
care. When she had been alone, pain had been a release from her misery,
and
escape from the anguish she carried with her at all times. With Dimitri
it had
become a way to lose control, let go of the misery and let pain guide
her higher. It enhanced her pleasure in ways she never thought possible,
so
much so that she almost couldn’t remember what it felt like to loathe
the pain
she had once inflicted on her own body.
His hand trailed down to cup her
ass; she tilted her pelvis and gave him a handful of flesh. She
pressed against him and felt him bring up the hem of her dress. She closed her
eyes and rested on his chest as he said, “Yes, that...your ass, your body, it’s
mine. You belong to me. I will not have you cutting your hair or changing the colour, or did you
already forget your place with me?”
Jaden Wilkes is the pen name for a girl living on the prettiest farm in BC. After a lifetime of love, lust and adventure, she is happily settled down with her second chance, the love of her life.

A life of travel, adventure and keen observations of human nature allow for the creation of rich worlds and...
Fuck it, I need to keep it real. I have done a bunch of stuff, met a lot of people and lead an interesting life. That's it! I am passionate about my art, my work, my family and my friends, not necessarily in that order. I love writing fiction, I've spent years hearing things like "you should write a book" or "ZOMG you're so funny, write that shit down". And now I am. I hope you enjoy my words as much as I enjoy laying them down.
I've been an archaeologist (ethnographic research as well as human skeletal remains specialist), a GIS geek, a teacher, a city planning nerd and a photographer. New to that list, author. I am damn proud of this designation and hope that it will keep spurring me on to greater and better things. Every work I produce will be better than the last, so if you liked this first one, you will love the rest!
Thank you for joining me on this crazy journey. Along the way I hope I am able to offer you some laughs, some succor for the soul and some tingles in your soft places. ;)
