About the book: year / Grimm Outcast. Dark Messiah. A harbinger of death. My reputation has always preceded me. I am the brother of the Queen of the Wasteland. One of the few confidants of her lover - the devil himself. Whispering rumors that I am a silent killer, a true reaper of souls? This is true. People cannot predict my appearance. I know no differences, show no mercy and feel no remorse. My only loyalty is to my family, and when someone important goes missing, I commit to doing everything necessary to find and bring him back. However, the person I found is not at all the same woman who was abducted. There is something completely different about her. Something that pulls me in as we make our way back to hell. Arlen Stubborn. Reckless. The family's original disappointment. My reputation has never preceded me. She was supposed to be a spoiled, rich little bitch who did whatever her daddy told her to do. I was forbidden to even think about the Wasteland. However, money means nothing to me, and my paradise was just a beautiful cage that I flatly refused to get into. I fought for my life, found a new family, and although it was sometimes difficult, everything worked out in the end. But then I was kidnapped. I thought it was all over. I almost broke down. One should have guessed that he would never allow this. And I needed to understand that there was some kind of breakdown inside me. Perhaps then she would have seen all the signs that she had fallen in love with a vicious man. The man who taught me that there is a certain power in taking another's life. The man who showed me how magnificent hell truly is. To be fair, I want to warn you that this is not a story about a rescued damsel in distress. This is the story of what happens when a man who collects souls ends up meeting his match..
