About The Sacrifice by Kitty Thomas
Title: The Sacrifice
Author: Kitty Thomas
Series: Dark Wedding Books #2
Genre: Dark Contemporary Romance
I caught the bouquet at my best friend’s wedding. I wasn’t even dating anyone, so I was sure I wouldn’t be next.
Until someone from the past came back. We’d promised if neither of us were married by the time we were thirty we’d marry each other.
But then I’m taken captive by someone else and told I am the sacrifice, that I’m now property. A payment for a debt that has nothing to do with me.
Now I wish I could go back to that boring, safe life. Because this can’t possibly be my fairy tale.
NOTE: This is a dark contemporary standalone in the Dark Wedding world.

Kitty Thomas
“S-Soren?”
“Soren went home.” The voice is male, low, and dark. If possible, he sounds even more ruthless than Soren, and my body reacts immediately. I haven’t even seen this guy. Just three small words, and my body is excited. It clearly has no sense of self-preservation. I had thought this reaction was exclusive to Soren, but no, it’s just men like Soren. With my body obviously against my survival, it’s a miracle I haven’t already ended up dead in a ditch somewhere.
Like Soren, this man has an overpowering ruthless energy that I can feel heavy on the air around me. It makes every nerve ending light up in response with the desire to be consumed and ripped apart by this new storm.
I can feel it in the air. He is darkness. I am light. He is guilty. I am innocent. He is war. I am love.
I’m sick. There probably isn’t even a diagnosis for what’s wrong with me.
I wish I could control my body’s reaction. There are just some things that set me off in this primal animal way. Intellectually I know this man may really hurt me. Or he may be gross. Or he may be any number of horrible things, but even so, I’m wet. He’s cast in too much shadow for me to see his face, which calls back my fantasy from this morning, something else I definitely don’t need to be thinking about right now. I’m not an idiot. I know I’m in real trouble here, and that this isn’t some fantasy that’s come to life. But I feel pulled into him as though the storm can provide me shelter.
