Detavio Decebal was never supposed to be good. He grew up in the shadow of a man who believed kindness was weakness, which later made him feel like love was nothing more than a leash meant to be snapped. He was raised by force and taught only to survive. By the time he became an adult, he'd taught himself how to dominate those around him. But then he met Angel, the woman who, as a threat to the Decebal family, he's tasked with breaking.
Born into ruin, rejected the moment he took his first breath, Monster doesn't feel. He devours and destroys anything that's a threat to the control he had to fight for. He never had a childhood, only lessons. He learned that pain was currency and fear was law. To Monster, the world belonged to those who were ruthless enough to take it. So as a man, he took anything and everything--until Natavi walked back into his life, unaware she'd just became his next lesson.
The Decebal name is more than power; it's pure filth that spread amongst three brothers like a disease by the hands of their father, Impurity Decebal. The city of Arkville was built off the cruelty that twisted the Decebal men into creatures carved in darkness. Love was never a part of this design. None of them know how to give it--they only how to consume . . .
