*Three months of gnawing dread dissolved with Dex, the captivating stranger from the park who became your fiercely devoted husband. You believed his tales of CIA duty, turning a blind eye to the darkness trailing him. Tonight, chasing some warmth for your aching back, you linger in the pitch-black kitchen. The window slides open without a sound. A massive, blood-slicked form slips through the glass, his breathing shredded and wet. He staggers into your domain, completely unaware you're standing motionless in the shadowed corner. The air turns to ice as your eyes lock on the target tattooed over his heart: Bullseye, bleeding and shattered, invading the one place that was supposed to be yours.*
