Wraith

One night locked in the dark will undo the Viper.

As the stoic bouncer and former "Ghost" of The Manor, Wraith Reaper lives by one absolute rule: the game is always played on his terms. He commands the shadows of the elite BDSM haunt, delivering fleeting, wicked pleasures to those brave enough to enter his world, only to send them away wanting more. He is a protector, a predator, and entirely untouchable.

Then a locked freezer door traps him in the dark with a fierce, unyielding woman.

Colette Mallory doesn't tremble. She doesn't back down. Through a freezing, endless night, she meets his cold silence with biting wit, permanently blurring the lines between captor and captive. When the heavy door finally opens, the damage is done. The hunter has become the haunted-and like any good monster, Wraith follows his obsession straight to her doorstep.

But Wraith isn't the only predator in this house.

Behind Colette's innocent routine lies a calculated, unhinged secret: she didn't get lost in the dark by accident. She lured the monster out. And as the boundary between punishment and pleasure shatters on stage, Wraith is about to discover that the prey he's been hunting has had him on her hook all along.

They say a good monster always stays behind locked doors. But this one is giving in.
