Unholy Union

Cristina

Monsters don’t hide in the dark.

When I met Damian Di Santo in a dark corner of my family home I knew he was a monster.

I was a frightened girl. He was already a man.

Little did I know that night marked the beginning of his twisted countdown.

Marked by dead roses with sharp thorns, eight years passed each bringing me closer to a fate I could not escape.

Until the night he returned to claim me.

Damian

Circumstance put Cristina on my path.

Fate bound her to me.

Cristina and I share a common past. A single night that changed the course of our lives.

The night I first met her, she asked me if I was a monster.

I am.

She’s about to learn I’m her monster.

Because the countdown that began eight years ago has ended.

Her time is up.

On the stroke of midnight, she’s mine.
