I Know Her Secret…

Cat is in so much trouble. She did something bad, and I saw.

I’ll keep her secret... for a price.

Poor, sweet, timid Cat should never have come to Kingmakers. It’s a place for monsters and killers. People like me.

She wandered into the lion’s den and now she’s mine.

Mine to play with. Mine to torment. Mine to break...


The Lark Notes:
My very first inspiration for Kingmakers was Dean Yenin. I wanted to write a true anti-hero who would need to undergo a very serious change in his character to complete his redemption arc. Dean will make you feel all the things, sometimes against your will. You’ll love him and hate him and love him again, and never get him out of your head. – Sophie

“The Bully” is a standalone novel. It's the third installment in the epic dark mafia Kingmakers series – a bully romance, full of dark, twisted enemies-to-lovers conflict. Reader beware, this one is intense.

Kingmakers, #3

The Bully

“No.” I shake my head. “But I did dig you out.” 

“Maybe next time . . . try to catch me,” Cat says.

Snow chuckles. “The most beautiful woman in the world. And yet, that’s only my tenth favorite thing about her.”

I don’t think of Cat as a pet that is disposable or beneath me. I think of her as an exotic, unearthly creature that I’ve captured and tamed. Far more valuable than an ordinary human.

“I’m jealous,” I say, seizing her arm and pulling her close. “Any time anyone looks at you, or speaks to you, I’m jealous. I want all your minutes, and all your words. I want all of you, all the time.”

It’s terrifying. Because I’m not in control of Cat. I can’t make her love me. All I can do is hope.
