The Secret by Stella Gray

The Secret by Stella Gray

On the day I was married, I promised to love, honor, and obey my husband Stefan Little did I know how literally I would mean obeying. Stefan tells me what to do, and I do it. There are questions asked, but I always submit in the end. It would hurt less if I hadn’t started falling for him. It was supposed to be pretend. But the secrets we now share are too real, and they’re crumbling every piece of who I thought I was. If only Stefan was the man I thought he was. If only I weren’t so powerless. But there’s one thing I have that he wants. My body. And I’ll do anything it takes to right the wrongs I’ve discovered.

If that wasn’t bad enough, I’ve been sired by one of the most powerful, sadistic and calculating vampire Lords in the city; Theoden. It’s just the beginning of my new life, hell, I’m not even one night old as a vampire and already I wish they had decided to kill me instead of turn me. I guess this was my punishment for rebelling against them. They’re clever that way.

My night of pain and torment is just beginning.
