Here's Davidson King's "Under His Rule." It's a novel in the multi-author series, In The Spotlight.
["Under his rule, nobody is safe.
Prince Julian Davaros is heir to the throne of the Lamdera Islands. He’s gorgeous, rich, famous… and just happens to be a serial killer. His family and bodyguard know his murderous proclivities, but to everyone else, he’s simply the heir apparent, loved by many. In reality, Julian can’t stand most people, he doesn’t have relationships, and if he’s alone with you it usually means you’re his next victim. However, once Wynn Carter catches his attention in a small cafĂ©, Julian’s new obsession isn’t one he wants to kill but instead wants to own.
Wynn Carter has always wanted to visit the Lamdera Islands, and he’s using his thirtieth birthday as the perfect excuse. His plan is to soak up some sun, drink in the culture, and make memories with his friends. His agenda didn’t include catching the eye of the future king. Now Wynn finds himself swept up in a sort of fairytale of lavish dinners, intimate nights, and even some media attention. He doesn’t know what he did to deserve the prince’s interest, but he’s certainly not upset about it.
Unfortunately, secrets don’t stay hidden no matter how powerful you are, and when someone decides to push Julian out of the shadows by hurting the one person he wants more than anything, the quiet monster that lies within him bursts free. Julian’s and Wynn’s lives erupt into chaos, and Wynn finally discovers who Julian truly is. If he can’t live with it, the prince needs to decide whether to surrender everything… or get rid of his obsession."]
These two were the definition of instant connection and fast falling and opposites attract. They were each other's rock and each other's calm. But they also brought each other a lot of drama. If it wasn't for Wynn, Julian wouldn't have killed the governor (not that Wynn is to blame); if it wasn't for Julian, Wynn wouldn't be coerced into a relationship with a psychopathic prince. So their love story wasn't entirely easy.
It was kinda cute though. Julian, a virtually uncaring person, cared sooo much about Wynn and Wynn's feelings of him and Wynn's comfort and Wynn's future. Wynn hate that darkness in Julian, but he couldn't' help but constantly cave under the sweetness (and that spice)
Trigger Warnings: torture, death, kidnapping, mild dubcon, and more.
