“Have you ever considered the possibility that the universe sometimes sends your nemesis in form of a person? To deal with you for all the wrongs you have ever committed.”
I don’t answer that question mainly because I don’t know how to. I feel his stare hot against the side of my face, the hatred surging through my skin. I am compelled to speak.
“No… I haven’t”. My voice is shaky, betraying me. I keep my stare trained on the textbook in front of me as I say, “I haven’t done that many wrongs”
I hear his low laugh. He is amused by my confidence. Or audacity. “I think you have”. He says with a sly grin. “And your nemesis has only just begun his work.”
I peel my eyes from the book slowly to stare at him. His gaze is hard, his face stoic. “Who…”. My words trail off but he gets it. He knows what I am asking him.
Who is my nemesis?
The smile is back on his face, somehow more menacing than a hard frown as he says his next words,
“Me.”
Greytown is a city of vices, and Laurette has spent her life staying invisible to survive it. But one reckless moment draws the attention of Hosea Larsen, the dangerous heir to a gang empire.
When a secret ties her fate to his, Laurette is forced into his world, where fear, obsession, and something far more dangerous begin to grow.
Hosea was supposed to break her.
Instead, she becomes his only weakness.
In a town ruled by violence and revenge, loving him might cost her everything… or be the only thing that saves them both.
