Desire

Esai’s path has been set since birth after he was saved from a house fire. He’ll live out his life as a Pastor, remain at Meadow church, and deny himself the touch that he truly craves. He’s spent years trying to bleed out the vile part of himself so he can be what everyone expects of a Pastor: unselfish, pure, and an example to everyone. Until Tiras. The newcomer at church is like sin and desire wrapped in human form. He’s everything that Esai has tried to forget and push away, but even the pain he forces himself to endure as punishment isn’t enough to rid him of his sinful thoughts. When Tiras’s true form becomes evident, and he offers a new way, will Esai turn away or run right toward temptation? While this novella contains a completely different pairing, it is related to the Fallen series which would probably be helpful to understand the Fallen realm.
