This novel contains adult themes that may not be suitable for all  \nreaders.  \nPlease check my website for a full content disclaimer:  \n[www.evamarkswrites.com](www.evamarkswrites.com).  \n[OceanofPDF.com](OceanofPDF.com)  \nABOUT THE BOOK  \nI’m stalking a man with dark, terrifying secrets, and I still can’t  \nbring myself to fear him.  \nHow can I, when he’s the doctor who saved my life?  \n“Not on my watch.”  \nThat’s what Dr. Alaric Lockwood said when I told him I didn’t think  \nI was going to make it.  \nHe stayed true to his word. I’m alive because of him.  \nI should be grateful and move on like he did.  \nImpossible.  \nYears have passed since that night, and I still can’t get him out of my  \nmind.  \nThat’s why I’m back in town. Why I’m not going anywhere. Why I don’t question my ﬁxation on him, even when I catch him  \ndoing things he shouldn’t.  \nWe’re meant to be.  \nSlowly but surely, he’s starting to see it too, growing as obsessed  \nwith me as I am with him.  \nThe only problem is, he won’t open up about the dark secret I uncovered while stalking him.  \nIf he thinks I need protecting from that side of him, he’s wrong. I’m  \nnot fragile. I won’t break.  \nBut since he doesn’t know it yet, I’ll have to do something drastic to  \nconvince him   And hope it doesn’t backﬁre on us.  \n[OceanofPDF.com](OceanofPDF.com)  \nPLAYLIST  \nOmido, Rick Jansen, Ordell—“Outta My Head”  \nElvis Drew—“Make Me Feel”  \nJames Blake—“Retrogade”  \nElliott Smith—“Between the Bars”  \n[OceanofPDF.com](OceanofPDF.com)  \nPROLOGUE  \nLilith Seven years ago  \n“O  \nn three,” a man calls out.  \nIt’s not the same one who kept telling me to stay with him on the ride here, to the hospital. His voice was a little high-  \npitched.  \nThis new man’s voice is deeper. Low, steady.  \nReassuring.  \nBut I can’t focus on it for too long. There are hands touching me. Each one lands on a bruise. A cut. My arm, I think it might be broken.  \nMom really went all out tonight.  \n“One…” a woman starts counting.  \nPlease, be careful. Everything hurts.  \nAs much as I want to say these things, it’s hard. My throat is raw and scratchy from screaming. Even if it weren’t, I’m too drained to speak.  \nMaybe if I open my eyes, they’ll see what I’m trying to tell them. I try. Try. Try.  \nAnd fail.  \nMy swollen eyelids are too heavy. My entire body is.  \nDammit.  \n“Two…” she continues, unaware of my rising panic.","cbCaiioqUxyBIPtF","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiioqUxyBIPtF","pdf",2766840,8,313,"English","en",105,"# Contents\n## A Note from the Author\n## About the Book\n## Playlist\n## Prologue\n## 1.
