The Binding
Illustrations by A.V. LUV
The door shouldn't exist. I know that. But I'm so tired of my life going nowhere that I push it open anyway.On the other side, I find him.
Massive. Monstrous. Bleeding black blood onto marble floors.
His eyes lock onto mine-ancient, burning gold-and his voice scrapes through me like smoke and gravel.
"You came."
Like he's been waiting. Like he knows me.
I should run. Instead, I stay.
Mara is twenty-eight and watching her life slip away. Sydney's housing crisis has scattered her friends to cheaper cities, her parents are selling the childhood home, and she's stuck treading water in a life that was supposed to have started by now. When she discovers a mysterious door on a cliff path, she walks through-because something, anything, needs to finally happen.
She doesn't expect to find a demon. She doesn't expect him to be gentle. And she definitely doesn't expect the way her body responds to his touch-or the way he looks at her like she's the only real thing in his world.
Kael has been bound for centuries, ancient magic slowly killing him while he waits for something he'd stopped believing would come. He's monstrous, powerful, and utterly honest-a creature who has never lied, never played games, never pretended to be anything other than what he is. When his human steps through that door, every instinct screams to claim her. To keep her. To worship her until she forgets she ever wanted to leave.
But Mara isn't a prisoner. The door works both ways.
She can leave whenever she wants.
She doesn't want to.
Can she trust a monster who's never lied to her? Can he let her close enough to break him? And when the magic that binds him demands a price, will their bond be strong enough to survive it?
