The Unfortunates (Unfortunate #1)
“It’s much scarier during the day. Now it seems to lack the warmth that the fireplace at night brought. The thick, deep red curtains are shut and the only beam of morning sun filters in through a small gap. I hear no noise besides the sound of singing birds outside. I wait… and I wait.

I swallow hard, my pulse racing through my body, as the handle turns and the door opens. Behind my back, I run my fingers over my palm collecting sweat as images of Kade in the shower flash through my mind… the goosebumps on his skin… his wet slicked hair… the water as it rolled down his throat and vibrated against his flesh when he groaned… “Nine?”MoreLess
