As a siren, I’ve always been able to feel emotions. Some are basic: sadness feels heavy and cold; happiness is light and warm. Some are more complex: bitterness is sharp like a sting, hot like a flame, and persistent like a bad cold. I can block out the way emotions feel against my skin, but when they’re strong, I can’t turn off the way they taste.
Sirens were made to kill. Our purpose is to lure, seduce, and destroy. It’s wrong, and I know it’s wrong, but that knowledge does nothing to ease the feeling of euphoria—of complete and utter bliss—when I lead a man astray.

Prince Hayes Finnean Vanihail is full of warmth and excitement and energy and he’s so, so beautiful . . .
The thought loosens my shoulders, and I take my first normal breath since entering the room. When I look at him—really look at him—I see him for what he is. It doesn’t matter how uncannily perfect he is. He’s a Royal. The Royals are shrouded in beauty, but it’s all to mask the fact that they’re the reason behind everything I hate.
