As an ageless demon, she's fully prepared to keep holding Char captive forever.Char struggles to unravel the mystery of why they've ended up pitted against each other, locked in a private war that seems certain to end with one or both of them dead. Does Vesper's senseless cruelty stem from simple demonic bloodlust? From years of suppressed loathing? What else could have driven her past the breaking point-compelled her to suddenly snap and betray her own bondmate?To uncover the truth, Char will have to face her demon as she would any other deadly monster: as an enemy of humanity, the most formidable and vindictive foe she's ever encountered.The First and Last Demon is a dark f/f enemies to lovers story with a heavy emphasis on the enmity-but an indelible slow-burning love at its core.
