From New York Times Bestseller Mimi Jean
Pamfiloff, Comes the New Standalone Story of Mack, a Continuation of the King
Trilogy
“THEY THINK KING IS EVIL, BUT
HE’S GOT NOTHING ON ME.” - Mack
MY NAME IS MACK. And if I play my cards right, I
will soon be dead. Permanently. Not even my powerful twin brother will be able
to resurrect me. A good thing. Because a man like me has no business living.
Not when I have killed. Not when I have betrayed everyone I have ever cared
for. Not when I know I’m destined to do it again.
This is why I have come looking for her—the only
one capable of ending me once and for all. But will she think I’m just another
insane patient? Or will she believe the truth? I am thousands of years old, my
heart too dark to be salvaged.
~~~~~
MY NAME IS TEDDI, short for Theodora. My entire
life has been a canvas of grays, whites, and black. I can’t feel, I can’t understand
joy, I’ve never truly lived. Until now. His name is Mack, and though he
believes he’s cursed, my degree in psychology tells me otherwise. Besides,
someone who’s capable of bringing so much light into my life can’t be anything
but good.
But I can save him. If he’ll let me.
(STANDALONE STORY – BASED ON THE USA TODAY BESTSELLING KING TRILOGY)

EXCERPT:
Darkness was the one thing in this world I didn’t care for—probably
because I felt most comfortable with facts. Seeing objects equated seeing
facts. There is the floor. There is the couch. Facts.
Guessing where things were—I think the leg of this table is around here
somewhere—ouch!—was inefficient, useless. It was why nightlights were invented.
So when I entered John Doe’s dark room, the first thing I wanted was to
bring in some light.
“Mr. Doe?” I said to the dark figure seated in the corner of the small
room, staring at me like an eerie scarecrow waiting to frighten the shit out of
anything that crossed its path. “My name is Dr. Valentine. I’m the new
director. May I turn on the lights so we can discuss the reason you are here?”
“I asked not to be disturbed.” The man’s deep, masculine voice felt like
a cold, chilling slap. Yet strangely, it was also…Well, I didn’t know really.
Hypnotic, perhaps.
I squinted, my eyes straining to see his face but only able to make out
his silhouette—broad shoulders, short hair, and fit-looking arms from the
shadows of biceps I was able to spot.
“That’s exactly why we need to talk,” I said. “It’s come to my attention
that you are not here to seek therapy—”
“Leave.”
My mouth flapped for a moment. “I’m sorry, but did you—”
“I said leave,” he growled.
Sadly for him, intimidation didn’t work on me. Not that I was stupid and
wouldn’t get out of harm’s way. The question was, did he intend to harm me?
“And if I don’t?” I asked, testing the waters. His response would tell
me everything I needed to know. Reading people’s internal emotional state was
another gift of mine.
I waited for a reply.
And then I waited some more.
He’s not going to answer me. Fine. This was silly and a completely
unproductive use of my time. I would just have to see him with my own two eyes.
My gift would do the rest.
“Okay. These lights are going—” I flipped the switch, and the moment my
eyes met his, I was hit by a hard wave of…
“Holy fuck,” I gasped.
I flipped off the lights, turned, and left the room. Fuck. Fuck. Fuck.
What was that?
