Feral Crown

MELISSAGiving in to darkness-letting it numb my pain.It's the only thing I wanted.The only thing I needed.Until him.He saved me that fateful morning, and had it not been for his strong arms wrapping around my fragile body, I wouldn't be here to tell this tale.One of unimaginable hurt and suffering-but so much love.A love that is blinding and all-consuming.Full of soul-searing passion leaving me starving for just one taste.One taste of the mountain man that's forever burned into my being.But like the true b*tch life is, she's deprived me of even that.Maverick is my brother's best friend, and I'm not even on his radar.Too bad I'm not settling for scraps.No. I've been given a second chance at life, and there's no way in hell I'm wasting it.Buckle up, sweetheart. This girl's on a mission-rules be damned.HUNTERI f*cked up.I f*cked up bad. My mind, heart, and soul betrayed me.They've set their sight on the unattainable-a love that could never be mine.She's too young, Ericson's little sister, and way too innocent.Despite what the little spitfire throws at me, I have to stay strong, keeping her at arm's length.But the jokes on me. I've pushed her too far.And now that I've lost her for good, am I selfless enough to let her go, or will my body finally claim what's mine?
