Kresley Cole- Demon from the Dark

Malkom born to a demon whore and sold to a vampire as a blood slave always saw himself as little more then nothing after being forced to do things a child should never have to do, when he got too old and too big he was thrown out on the street by the vampire master. Having to eat from trash cans, he swore he would get his vengeance. After killing his old master he continued to kill Vampires soon getting noticed by the prince of demons, Kallen. Kallen was nobleman something Malkom always wanted to be, they became friends, Kallen was the only friend Malkom had ever had. Then they were captured and betrayed by someone from his own demon army then they were forced to turn Scarba, which is a demon turned Vampire. The Vampire leader told them that only one of them could survive if they wanted to be set free. Malkom, being use to being hungry lasted longer then his friend so when Kallen tried to feed off of Malkom knowing he was not as strong as Malkom. After years of being a blood slave Malkom tried to surrender his life to his best friend but the will to survive overtook him and he beheaded his friend instead of feeding from him like the Vampire Leader wanted. Malkom killed anyone who ever betrayed him, so the vampire Leader soon fell to his claws. Being Scarba or Venom he could no longer live with his demon people so he took to the mountains and made a lonely home for himself where everything around him feared him as IT.  Carrow, the party loving witch never saw this coming after being bailed out of jail for one of her many stays there for having too much fun in new Orleans. But Carrow's powers were fed off other peoples happiness so it was easy to make others happy if she was the fun loving one but deep down she knew no true happiness. When the people who bailed her out of jail then kidnapped her, she learned that her cousin had been beheaded leaving her 7 year old daughter orphaned, Carrow felt instant mother like feeling towards her little cousin and swore to take care of her. That's when she learned why she had been kidnapped.   It was to lead Malkom back to The Order, they are mortals who want to learn the weaknesses of all the Lores so they can use it against them to destroy them. Once Carrow is on the other plane she is saved and scared by Malkom numerous times and because she can't speak his language, they are unable to talk even after she starts to have feelings for him she wants to ask for his help instead of sending him to his doom. Malkom not use to having a female near him is not aware that he hurts her with a simple touch sometimes, all he knows is she in His! She is his vampire Bride who has blooded him and his Demon mate who will finally allow him to release his seed.  He's willing to follow her anywhere but if she doesn't send him to the Order they will kill her adopted daughter Ruby. Will Carrow betray Malkom? Or will he help her to have her? My Rating 4.5

  2. I loved Malkom too- I think this was the best book in the series. He was so strong and so tough but he just melted around his mate and when he became a "stepdemon" to Ruby it was wonderful. I really liked Ruby, I'm hoping we see more of her in the upcoming books. The hard life Malkom had was so very sad but to overcome all of that to put his heart out there to Carrow was a really good love story and honestly the sex was a pretty good read too!! :) Ummm I think I wouldn't mind giving Malkom a bath either!!
