The Demon's Secret #890294

Chicago, 2026. It's been over 60 years since the discovery of demons, and they've been integrated into human society. They remain heavily regulated, feared, and hunted.

There's a dying smoke demon on Phoebe’s doorstep. She can’t bring herself to turn him over to the Demon Control Authority. Hiding him is illegal, and puts her duties as a Council custodian at risk. But saving his life will require her to do something very wicked indeed. Something that could change her own fate, forever.

Nikhiv is dying. There's nothing that the tempting, innocent custodian can do about it, though he enjoys watching her try. A dark force compels him, and it won’t rest until he does its bidding.Yet, he underestimates her determination. Her willingness to sin, in order to save him. When her intoxicating spell drags him under, it’s impossible to resist his demon instincts to claim her, for good. But with the hidden puppet master controlling him, she might not live long enough to ever be his.
