Appraised by the Devil of Greed
(2026)(The sixth book in the Offworld Meat Market series)
A novel by Morrigan Black
The job was a trap. The trap had a mind. And the Devil who beat me in the net decided I was his.
I'm a netrunner. Every lock on this planet has opened for me, so when the contract came to steal the one treasure the Devil of Greed guards above all his credits and bought lives, I took it. One impossible job. Then my brother and I are set for life, and I never have to be afraid again.
I didn't count on the Devil meeting me inside the net. I didn't count on losing.
They call him the Devil of Greed. A demon of storm-blue muscle and black scale, horns veined with red, a spiked tail long enough to close the door behind me and hold me still from ankle to throat. He's appraised thousands of men from his tower and sold them off by the gram. He touched my mind, read every worthless thing I am, and decided I'm the one thing he won't put a price on.
Now I'm his. No chains. No cage. No collar. He carved his claim into my chest and grew my name out of his own skin in living ink, and the bond keeps me inside his reach. And his reach is everywhere. He keeps me in a hoard worth more than the planet, like I'm the only thing in it that matters.
'All you have to do is stay.' He says.
I told myself I'd find the loophole and run the second the debt cleared.
Then the debt cleared.
And I didn't want to be free.
Appraised by the Devil of Greed is book six of the Offworld Meat Market series. A standalone dark MM monster romance featuring an obsessed devil alien, tail restraint, claiming, and a thief who learns his true worth in the Devil's hoard. Filthy, dark, and guaranteed HEA.
Genre: Fantasy
