RED:
Lázhien’s human. A common Imperial soldier. And my soulmate.
How could fate get it so wrong?
The demon in me craves this bond with every shred of his being. He pushes me to accept it. This time I won’t yield to his demands.
LÁZHIEN:
Red’s a lust demon, a whore and a stuck-up snob.
The most beautiful man I’ve ever seen. Pain in the arse. And he hates my guts.
I’d be an idiot to pursue him. Yet something about him compels me to make him mine.

Review
First
a shout out because my goodness what a great story!!
Red
and Lázhien
Ōkkanȏ
Kyatto aka Red is a thirty-three-year-old lust demon a Tii-Matâshi, a whore,
earning good money. When a big rough looking bear of a sergeant looks at Red,
he’s shocked but Red haughtily turned around and dismissed the man. In shock
because dang that was his fated soulmate!
He
doesn’t want to be tied to anyone, and he certainly doesn’t need anyone.
Lázhien
admires the beauty of the creature standing on the balcony looking down at the
buzz of the whorehouse. He also concludes he’s a snob and he wants him!
A
bond is hard to deny. Recognize your mate and an intense lust starts. Then an
idea pops up in Red’s head, they’ll f*ck each other’s brains out and afterward
they will carry on, separately.
After
the incredibly intense and most fulfilling night of his life with Lázhien, Red
has to survive the next two weeks until the d*mn bond expires.
Lázhien
feels hurt by Red and his refusal to bond, he is head over heels.
Stepping
into the enchanting Order Universe, a magical world where we can find Incubus,
Elves, Mages, and Art was more than breathtaking.
The
glossary at the beginning was awesome, I was already sold by all the foreign creative
designations.
It
was an immensely powerfully written story, it had a snarky dirty language, just
delicious!
The
emotional parts were also well voiced and palpable.
The
way this author expresses the scenery was great to visualize. It all felt right
and made sense.
I
loved this passionate story enormously, with all the beautiful creatures,
strong-headed characters, and thank goodness an hea.
A
winner for sure!
