Romance

Morally grey? Try pitch black so dark they nicknamed him The Reaper. Axel Hawthorne—Axe, is more monster than man. A bloodthirsty assassin with no mercy, no heart, no soul. The nightmare lurking in the underworld, my father commands. No one escapes his wrath. And now? I'm his. Trapped in his sick game of revenge. There's no escape. No hope. The Sovereign—a secret society of assassins driven by power, greed, and bloodshed—are the shadows in broad daylight, striking when you least expect it. I was born to serve them. My father's legacy is my burden. Now, his filthy greed has bound me to the deadliest Sovereign of all—The Reaper. The Sovereign owns my existence—my body, my life. But now... he's coming for my soul. Contains mature content. A complete list of content warnings can be found on the author's website.
