Dark Craving

I know exactly what I want, and I’m not afraid to go after it.

Victor Kaine has been pretending not to notice me for months. The massive, tattooed owner of Ravenwood’s most brutal underground fight club, he’s all beard and muscle and carefully maintained heterosexuality. He flirts with women at Purgatory events, flexes his dominance in the ring, and acts like I don’t exist.

But I’ve seen the way his dark eyes follow me across a room. The way his jaw clenches when I’m with someone else. The primal hunger he tries so hard to hide behind that “I’m not gay” defense he clings to like armor.

So when Julian’s after-party gives me the perfect opportunity, I make my move. I strip down and drop to my knees between Victor’s massive thighs, and watch years of denial crumble under my touch. His protests die the moment I show him exactly what he’s been missing, his hands fisting in my hair as he stops pretending and starts taking.

What begins as a single night of indulgence—me riding him while Julian watches—becomes something neither of us expected. Victor can’t stay away. Doesn’t want to. The man who spent years insisting he only likes women now can’t get enough of me.

But Victor’s still fighting himself, still terrified of what this means in his brutal, masculine world. He wants me in private but won’t claim me in public. Wants to own my body but won’t admit to owning my heart.

And I’m not the patient type. I’m used to getting what I want when I want it. Even if what I want is a six-foot-four mountain of muscle and denial who’s finally ready to stop pretending—whether he admits it or not.

He thinks I’m dangerous because I’m confident in who I am.

He has no idea how dangerous I can be when I decide to make him mine.

Dark Craving is the fourth installment in The Hollow’s Hunt Series, a scorching MM romance. No cliffhanger, satisfying HEA.
