Enoch is tested.
His brother is human, the thing he hates. He watches as the

someone as much as he hated her...but the bond forced him to not only want to
protect her, but feel things he never had before.
When a girl needs his help, that split second decision changes
his whole world in one instant.
A
Devourer's Fate...
Excerpt
“It’s cold,” I
lied. It was cold, but that was absolutely not the reason for the goose
flesh. He knew it and I knew it. And I hated it. I didn’t like for people to
get under my skin. It made me feel too vulnerable, like they had power over me.
When they had power, they could hurt you, leave you, die and leave you
destroyed. I wasn't up for any more of that. Except for Clara; she
was already attached to me and I owed it to her.
He looked over.
Even in the dark with barely any light being provided from the streetlamps, I
could see his purple eyes searching mine. “Just help me and then you never have
to see me again.”
It was almost like
he could tell what I’d been thinking about.
