Mira Santos has survived eight years at the Velvet House by following one simple rule: don't catch feelings.
She's watched girls fall for monsters and get their hearts shattered. She's given the speech so many times she could recite it in her sleep. Love is a trap. Caring is a death sentence. And demons? Demons are the worst of all-her mother loved one, and it killed her.
Then Azrael Val'korath walks through the door.
An incubus prince fleeing assassination, he's eight hundred years of shadow and sin wrapped in devastating beauty. He doesn't just want sanctuary. He wants her. Claims his blood has been singing her name for centuries. Says she's his fated mate, his recognition, the soul he's been searching for since before her grandmother was born.
Mira calls bullshit.
But Azrael isn't the only secret crashing into her carefully constructed walls. Her demon father has resurfaced. The Crimson Prince's conspiracy runs deeper than anyone knew. And the heritage Mira has spent her whole life hiding? It's about to tear everything apart-including the armor she's built around her heart.
Because the thing about walls is this: they don't just keep danger out.
They keep you locked in.
THE VETERAN is a full-length monster romance featuring an incubus prince who's waited centuries for his mate, a heroine who bites back harder, explicit demon spice (
