About this ebook
“What do you need, Petal? Tell me and I’ll let you have it,” he promised, ignoring the impulse to dominate her, to tell her what to do and how to please him.
Lily Travelle is a walking wet dream. When Tarq Marcellus is first introduced to her, he loses his mind in want of her delectable body, right in the middle of a business meeting. When he tries to use his power of persuasion on her to wipe out the memory of his major faux pas, it doesn’t work—humans aren’t supposed to be immune to the powers of immortals.
The next time they cross paths, it’s shortly after he’s been buried deep in a multitude of women, trying to get Lily out of his system. Not one of them could satisfy his new craving for dark hair and green eyes. This time, Tarq is going to have Lily in every way possible—and she’s going to love it.
Tarq is the first book of The Shadow, Inc. Series. Each book is a standalone novella centered around a member of the Marcellus Family.
***This quick and dirty read is a 15k-word erotic romance novella, complete with lots of steam, MFF erotica, a pinch of BDSM, and a HEA. Recommended for 18+.

It’s become crucial to her survival, due to her consumption of wine and chocolate. Cass’s mission in life is to spread the love and the laughter, goodness knows it’s needed.

Note From Author
1
If you keep on with your incessant chatter, I’ll stop.
"Oh! No, please don’t stop. Please."
Tarq rolled his eyes at Daisy’s irritatingly high-pitched voice. It grated on his nerves. When he hired her, he’d only been thinking with his dick, and how hard and far he was going to shove it up inside her.
Like he was now.
Six months ago, she’d shown up for an interview wearing a tiny top and even tinier skirt. She was as unprofessional as unprofessional could get.
She was also dressed in a way that let him know she was willing to be more than just his secretary.
She’d giggled and flirted and chomped on her gum the entire time. Who chewed gum when interviewing for the job of a lifetime? Okay, maybe it wasn’t the world’s best job, but it was the best one Daisy was ever going to get.
She was paid well, had a full benefit package, and she received a handful of orgasms from Tarq from time to time. Not that she remembered them.
He was careful to erase their sessions and he never, ever, initiated. Not with her. She worked for him, after all. Plus, his sister, Angelique, was head of HR. He knew better than to piss her off.
Tarq didn’t like feeling guilty about wiping Daisy’s memory. He never altered it before or during their hook-ups, but the more he pondered the whole situation, the worse he felt.
He had rationalized, the first time she grabbed his crotch, he’d let her get off, then let her get him off, and, since it was all consensual, pressing the brain’s metaphoric Delete key was no big deal.
Admittedly, she was also a damned good employee. It was the only reason he hadn’t fired her yet. He’d put up with some annoyance to have someone as efficient as she was. She was also a good lay, so there was that.
Knock-knock.
Daisy gasped and Tarq froze, giving his brother, Quin, the evil eye. The door had been locked. It should have clued the fucker in that Tarq was busy. Q’s extra power of telekinesis was inconvenient at times.
I’m fucking busy, Q.
More like you’re busy fucking,
Quin frowned from the doorway. Why his brother continued to bang his assistant was beyond him. Daisy was annoying as shit—and what the hell kind of name was Daisy, anyway?
Tarq? Should we …
Daisy left it hanging out there, unsure the protocol for getting caught being bent over her boss’s desk.
Shit. Hey, look at me,
Tarq commanded, the magic in his voice forcing her to turn clumsily to meet his eyes.
Tarq held her stare, telepathically convincing her they were still alone. Once her brain accepted his will, she writhed against him.
"Please!" she whined again.
Shush.
He looked at Quin and quirked an eyebrow. Q took the hint and exited. Thank gods for small miracles.
Tarq started fucking her again, this time with less vigor. She whimpered and moaned, her body begging for release. Even though he wasn’t feeling it anymore, he ordered her to come. And she did.
His power of persuasion was awesome. It was handy. It was also getting old.
He waited until she finished, until he could smell all the wonderful endorphins flooding her system. If he was going to steal the memory away, she should at least get something out of her efforts to seduce him.
Once she came down from her high, he pulled out and walked into the bathroom to remove the condom he hadn’t filled. He cleaned up, washed his hands, and returned to his desk, the one Daisy was currently sitting on.
He looked her over to make
