** NOTE: Judge of Hell may contain triggers for some
due to mature content, abusive situations, and harsh language. **
Fierce, loyal, controlled.
Three things
Judge became at a young age.
Enduring
unimaginable horrors no child should, he swore no person would dictate his or
his brother’s lives again.
Revenge fueled
him, setting a path destined from the moment he and his brothers escaped their
hell. Nothing would stop him from destroying the ones who’d wronged him, even
if that meant giving up the only woman to ever make him feel more than the heat
of vengeance.
He let Ellie go,
threw her away, never knowing the consequences of his actions.
Twelve years
later, she reappears in his life, and she has some hellacious secrets of her
own. Ones that knock Judge on his ass and threaten his ironclad control.
His life quickly
changes course. Priorities are shifted and sacrifices are made. Judge has a
decision to make. Will he give up his incessant need for retribution? Or will
he sacrifice something he never dreamed he could have, but desperately wants.
Or is it
possible to have both?
Judge of Hell
... our love of Judge is finally here! He may be the toughest shell to crack
out of the bunch, but we now know his reasons. His heart was shattered many
years ago and it has taken so long to heal. Even more, when we learn of his
life altering news, it couldn’t be better. It sends Judge on a path that he
never wants to come back from. What no one can figure out however, is who is
causing so much chaos in the town of Malus. Ever since Ellie came back into
Judge’s life, there has been nothing but death, strange findings and abuse. Who
could be behind the craziness happening in their small town? Why would anyone
do the acts that they are? One thing is for sure .. Judge and his brothers will
get down to the bottom of it and make sure that Malus is once again, safe and
crime free.
This whole Hell
Night series is just exceptional. Alex Grayson is an author that I will follow
for years to come. I absolutely can NOT wait for Emos’s story ... Key to Hell!!
“Why are you
nervous?” I ask, coming to a stop a couple of feet away. I want to close the
remaining space between us and kiss away the apprehension from her face.
“I’m not,” she
denies.
I smirk and let
my eyes fall to her hands for a moment before lifting them back to hers. “You
forget. I know all your nervous tics, Ellie.”
Her hands stop
fiddling with each other, and she instead stuffs them in her pockets. Her
shoulders slump.
“I just don’t
know what to do here.”
I frown.
“Elaborate.”
She looks around
the room, then back at me. “This is your home, Judge. I’m only here because of
Maisy. I don’t really know what to do in this situation.”
That makes me
scowl, irritation forming in my stomach. “This is your home for as long as
you’re here. Treat it as such. Do whatever in the hell you want to do.”
I take a step
closer when she nods. Being only a foot away, I can see the small specks of
black in her silver eyes. I can also smell her natural floral scent and it
drives me crazy. My dick takes notice, recognizing the scent from years before,
and my blood heats.
Her eyes widen when I reach
up and lay my hand against her neck, feeling the rapid beat of her pulse
beneath my palm. She closes
her eyes, and I see the war raging in her mind.
Push me away or
pull me closer.
I want to demand
she pull me closer. I swipe my thumb along the underside of her jaw, running
across the small scattering of scars, reminding me I never asked her about
them.
That needs to be
rectified soon. I’ve already learned a lot from JW’s report, and what she’ll
tell me is going to hurt like a bitch, but I need to hear it from her. The pain
will be my penance for allowing her to be hurt.
She opens her
eyes, and I know she’s going to retreat. I grip the back of her neck and pull
her until only a few short inches separate her lips from mine.
“Don’t fight
it,” I whisper.
Her eyes
glisten, and the sight tears a hole in my heart.
“This is going
to be difficult enough,” she whispers back, her voice raspy. “Don’t make it
harder by adding this to the mix.”
I lean down
until I feel her uneven breath against my lips. She looks at me with dilated
eyes. “It doesn’t have to be hard if we don’t want it to be. It could be as
easy as breathing. Like it used to be.”
I close the gap
between us, but instead of kissing her like I’m dying to, I run my nose along
the column of her neck. My lips graze against her earlobe.
“I know you
still feel it, Ellie. I know I still make your heart pound and your breath
hitch. I bet you have butterflies in your belly and shivers racing down your
back. You feel the chemistry between us. The same electric pull that was there
all those years ago. The same desire that swept through us anytime we were
together. Even when we weren’t, all it took was one thought and it consumed
us.” I trail a path of kisses up to her jaw and across her cheek. At the corner
of her mouth, her lips parted as she pants, I pull back just far enough so I
can see her gorgeous eyes. “I know you still feel it, because I still feel it
too. It’s not going anywhere, no matter how much you fight it.”
Alex Grayson is
the bestselling author of heart pounding, emotionally gripping contemporary
romance including the Jaded Series, the Consumed Series, and two standalone
novels. Her passion for books was reignited by a gift from her sister-in-law.
After spending several years as a devoted reader and blogger, Alex decided to
write and independently publish her first novel in 2014 (an endeavor that took
a little longer than expected). The rest, as they say, is history.
