In honor of the keeper of Lies, I thought Id write this dedication in Gideon Speak.

To someone who didnt (and doesnt) help me every step of the way: Margo Lipschultz.

To the five men I absolutely despise:
Jill Monroe, Kresley Cole and P.C. Cast.

To my hated wife: Max.

And firstly, to Gideon herself. To my complete delight, you made my job so easy, the words flowing like smooth, rich wine. You never once proved stubborn, drove me to the edge of insanity or put yourself in impossible positions that I then had to scramble to find ways out of.
Thank you.

CONTENTS
PROLOGUE

G IDEON STARED down at the woman sleeping atop the bed of cloud-soft cerulean cotton.

His wife.

Maybe.

Inky hair tangled around an innately sensual face, long lashes casting shadows over graceful cheeks. One of her hands rested at her temple, her fingers curling inward, her azure-painted nails gleaming in the golden glow of the lamp. Her nose was perfect in shape and size, her chin stubborn, and her lips the plumpestand reddesthed ever seen.

And her bodygods. Perhaps those made-for-sin curves were the reason she bore the name Scarlet. Her wickedly rounded breaststhe slender dip of her waistthe feminine flare of her hipsthe lean length of her legsevery part of her was meant to lure, to ensnare.

Without a doubt, she was the most hauntingly lovely female hed ever beheld. A genuine sleeping beauty. Only, this beauty would come up swinging if he tried to kiss her awake.

The thought had him grinning in pure male satisfaction.

One look, and a man knew she was passion and fire underneath that snow-white skin. What most men didnt know, however, was that, like Gideon, she was possessed by a demon.

Difference is, I earned mine. She didnt.

For-freaking-ever ago, hed helped his friends steal and open Pandoras box, unleashing the evil inside. Yeah, yeah. A mistake. Hardly worth a seconds thought, if you asked him, but the gods hadnt, so, as punishment, each warrior responsible was cursed to host a demon inside his own body. Baddies like Death, Disaster, Violence, Disease, yada yada.

Thered been more demons than warriors, though, so the remaining fiends had been placed inside the immortal prisoners of Tartarus. Where Scarlet had resided her entire life.

Gideon was paired with Lies, Scarlet with Nightmares.

Clearly, hed gotten the short end of that demon-stick. She merely slept like the dead and invaded peoples dreams. He couldnt utter a single truth without suffering. To tell a pretty woman that she was pretty was to fall to his knees, agony unlike any other exploding through him, cutting at his organs, acid spilling through his blood, draining his strength, even eroding his desire to live.

Youre ugly, hed have to say instead. Most females would burst into tears and run the hell away. So, yeah, he was immune to tears.
