I wanted someone to take me out of my body. Ever since the fire, I’d hidden it beneath copious layers of clothing. I�����d hidden my curves, my scars, my virginity. But I wasn’t stupid. I knew it would be valuable to somebody. One woman’s trash is another man’s treasure, right?
So, I sold it all.
He paid ten times more than I asked for, but my white knight is a monster. Dark, deadly and deformed. But he is the only one to see the darkness in me. Two souls, damaged and damned. Two hearts lost in the daylight, found in the dark. I was paid to be taken out of my body, if only for one night. What I didn’t expect was to be taken out of my life, forever.
