To Slay a Demon

Between duty and desire, even enemies can become temptation. Emry has built her life on rules: Discipline. Obedience. Control. It's the only way to survive when your clan's betrayal still stains your name and demons remember who once fought beside them. So when Damon Primrose takes the command she's trained her entire life for, Emry doesn't just resent him. She vows to outwork him, outfight him, and outlast him. Damon is everything she despises. Brooding. Ruthless. Infuriatingly brilliant. And far too interested in her. Assigned as co-leaders of an elite demon-slaying unit, they are forced into proximity neither of them wants, and neither can escape. Damon challenges her authority, questions her choices, and watches her with an intensity that feels less like rivalry and more like claim. His protection borders on possession. His restraint feels practiced… fragile. Every clash sharpens the tension. Every shared battle pulls them closer. And every stolen moment crosses a line Emry knows could cost her everything. As demons rise and the past threatens to resurface, Emry is torn between loyalty and longing, duty and desire. Loving Damon is forbidden. Trusting him may be worse.
