We're a match made in hell, Stefan and I. He took me to exact his revenge. I went from being a pawn to my father to being a pawn to Stefan. The only difference is I have a ring the size of a boulder on my finger and a husband I don't want. And the hardest part is I thought he was different. I thought I was falling in love.

He takes care of what's his. And I am his. His enemies have become my enemies, but he'll never let anyone hurt me. He's fiercely protective. It's the predator inside that scares me.

Becoming a part of you. Maybe the only part you recognize. I had every intention of bringing her home. Setting her free. I swear I did. But the men who stole her all those years ago weren't done with her yet. They'd stop at nothing to get her back. And I'd kill any man who tried to take her from me. She calls me her avenging angel. But I know the truth. I'm no angel. Because even as I tell myself I'm protecting her I know one thing for...

At his mercy. I know I am despised. I know I have become the face of his vengeance. But there's something else too. Something between us. It's a dark and gnarled thing. And it has its claws around my heart.
