Cruel Pain of Desire: The Winged Assassin Series, #3

He should have killed her.

Instead, he locked her away… and lost his heart.

Remiel is a Feard assassin, bound by duty and addicted to pain. Darya is a Soul Sucker fighting her own darkness. When she becomes the prime suspect in a series of deadly attacks, the safest place for her might be in the arms of her enemy.

Trapped together, their fragile truce gives way to undeniable passion—but secrets from Remi's past and Darya's hidden powers threaten to tear them apart.

As an ancient rebellion rises and a powerful enemy drains life from those Darya loves, she must risk everything to stop a war that could ignite worlds… even if it means sacrificing herself—and the assassin she's come to love.
