Nyctophilia/Athena E.S.

Nyctophilia
A Devotion & Vice Novel

Nyctophilia is a dark romance set in the Pacific Northwest, where the forests are dense, the air is heavy, and people disappear without much question.

Olive Sava keeps her life small on purpose. She works in a quiet flower shop, works with funeral arrangements, and stays far away from the violence she was born into.
She doesn’t draw attention on purpose. She definitely doesn’t expect to have a stalker.

Bash Zane was sent to find her. That was it. just a simple job.
At first, it’s just part of the job. He starts showing up without being seen. Staying longer than he should. Watching her like she already belongs to him.

Olive feels it before she understands it—that constant, crawling sense that she’s not alone.

Bash tells himself he’s in control. But he’s already crossed the line. He doesn’t want to follow the jobs rules. He wants to keep her.

And once he decides that—there’s no one left to stop him.

Nyctophilia can be read as a stand-alone in the Devotion & Vice series.
