She’s not afraid of him, and his insatiable desire deepens within every moment of her presence. He'd thought it was a hopeless endeavour, until he met her. He never expected that she would ever befriend him, or that she would openly desire him.

He knows what his future holds, she would never become his bride, but he wants to spend what remains of his life protecting her. The brief companionship does little to ease his loneliness, and their lives were always, unfortunately, cut short. After the Demon King cracked his skull, Faunus returns to watch over the only human he has ever cared for. In a fit of passion, she kills them both. She has learned to tolerate it until she comes home to find her husband having sex with another woman in her village. Delora is a woman trapped in a loveless marriage. Each decade, in exchange for a protection ward from the Demons that terrorise the world, Orpheus takes a human offering to the Veil – the place he lives and the home of Demons. A Soul to Heal is the second volume, and you definitely need to have read the first book to fully understand this one. His skull face and glow eyes are ethereal, and she finds herself unwittingly enchanted by him. A Soul to Keep by Opal Reyne This easily tops as one of the best monster romances Ive read in the past two years Its about a girl who gets sacrificed to a Duskwalker monster who cant help himself when humans bleed or run from him. When the next offering is due and the monstrous Duskwalker is seen heading their way, her village offers her an impossible choice – be thrown into the prison cells or allow herself to be sacrificed to a faceless monster.

Known as a harbinger of bad omens and blamed for Demons eating her family, Reia is shunned by her entire village.
