soul to set hers free.

When
workaholic high-flying career lawyer Tara Woji takes a well deserved break and meets
up with old friends she doesn’t realise the danger lurking in the shadows for
her. M’na is a chi, a gatekeeper whose duty is to protect the humans. Tara is
his assignment. As the shadows deepen and darkness comes to claim her, he will
do whatever it takes to protect her including doing the one thing that releases
her powers – unbinding her heart.

Prologue

M'na lounged in the worn foam armchair, thighs apart, legs
stretched out, right hand clutching a short tumbler of whisky. Lord of the Ring
posters covered up blue paint peeling off the brick walls.

Ironic really, the first time he was going to have sex in a
millennium and he'd chosen a demon with a love for fantasy movies, who lived
in a part of the city that could've been Mordor.

Desperation flowed in his veins, making him feverish. Sweat dripped
down his face. His t-shirt clung to his back, a second skin. He tightened his
grip on the glass to stop his hand from shaking and lifted it to his lips.

The strong liquor burned his throat as he tossed the whole
shot down. Thumped the glass back onto the small table and refilled it from the
bottle.

One of the advantages, or disadvantages depending on how one
chose to look at it, of being a super, alcohol had no effect in normal
quantities.

But he liked the sting of whisky at the back of his throat
and in his chest. It made him feel alive. Something he hadn't felt in a very
long time.

Shame it couldn't numb the pain searing his soul, his
constant companion.
