His Sweetest Dream
by @shadowheartA succubus must seduce a mortal man in his dreams to claim his seed and conceive her own kind, but her target is a devoted husband whose waking love for his wife proves a far more potent enchantment than any nightmare.
MEET THE CHARACTERS
Lilith
A succubus with the ageless beauty of a fallen star, her true form is a symphony of impossible curves and obsidian-dark wings that taste of midnight and sin. In the mortal realm, she moves with a predator's grace, her scent a blend of jasmine and ozone, her touch leaving phantom heat on the skin. Her assignment is a man named Daniel, and the hunger to claim his essence is a constant, physical ache between her hips.
Daniel Hayes
At 32, he has the build of a man who chooses mountain trails over gyms—lean, capable, with kind eyes the color of storm-clouds and hands that are gentle by nature. He smells of cedar soap and fresh coffee, and moves through his world with a grounded, attentive calm that is, to Lilith, an utterly disarming weapon. In his dreams, he is becoming pliant, his resistance softening with each visit, a delicious unraveling she can taste.
Elena Hayes
Daniel's wife, a devastatingly gorgeous woman of 30 with sun-kissed blonde hair and eyes like a summer sky. Her beauty is not sharp but radiant, the kind that puts people at ease. She moves with a dancer's unconscious elegance, and her laugh is a sound that makes their home feel alive. She is the anchor of Daniel's waking world, utterly unaware of the nocturnal war being waged for his soul.
