Nine years ago, I killed my brother, and I’ve been running from my past ever since.
I find a home in Darkwood, finally safe from those who hunt me. But no matter what I do, the darkness keeps pulling me in.
I allow my shadow magic to edge closer to the surface to feel something, anything. But no matter how much I want to embrace the power, I can’t. My magic thirsts for violence but I won’t let it kill again. It remains dormant... until he shows up.
A masked man watches me from the mirrors, stalking my dreams.
He haunts me, unraveling my thoughts until I’m not sure what to believe. I move closer to the edge and I’m afraid of what I’ll become if I let him in.
I can’t lose control. If I do, then I’m already dead.
The Demon…
I’ve spent a century trapped in the Shadow Realm, a purgatory created for me and my demons.
I watch the humans through mirrors, waiting for the moment I can find a way to leave and return to my domain. But I never found a way. Until now.
She’s everything I’ve been waiting for. The last descendant of the only bloodline that can free me.
I stalk her from the shadows, watching her every move. Her dark magic calls to me, craving for me to unleash it.
The closer she draws to the shadows, the more she’s within my grasp. Obsession takes over, pulling me into her world.
If she won’t unleash her power, then I will make her.
Corrupting a soul has never felt so good.

My Review: I think this one would have been much better if it would have only been from the Witches POV the Demon's POV felt very stilted and took me out of the story. His chapters I was dreading when they showed up as for my opinion they were not done very well. These dual POVs can be amazing but they have to be done well. I am not sure which author worked on which POV but whomever did the Demon's needed some help. The story at large was fairly well done but I think it still needed some major edits to make it better. As of right now this book stands as a mess that I ended up skimming the last half of it.
