The Collector is Episode Two of The Seven Gates, a short, high-heat dark paranormal romance series of 7 novellas full of obsession, power and dangerous devotion.
These stories are sins – brief, potent and cumulative.
Each episode is designed to be devoured in one sitting.
Seven Gates. One descent.
Dark. Addictive. Exquisitely cruel.
Winter settles over the club of shadows, and with it comes The Collector.
Lucien Vale – billionaire art dealer, hunter and thief of beautiful, broken things – once sold his soul for power. Now the Devil commands him to retrieve a forbidden artefact stolen centuries ago by a Gatekeeper who dared to defy Hell.
The trail leads to Eighth Gate, ruled by the Devil’s bride.
Bella Blackwood. Gatekeeper. Queen of the Damned.
A woman whose darkness answers his own.
Lucien enters out of curiosity.
He stays for obsession.
But the underworld has rules, and Bella enforces them without mercy. No mortal man touches what belongs to Hell.
As loyalty deepens and desire blurs into something more dangerous, the artefact’s truth threatens to fracture the fragile hierarchy of the Gates. To claim it would mean stealing her soul. To deliver it would mean surrendering his own.
And when Lucien makes his choice, the Devil answers with consequences far more intoxicating than redemption.
The Collector is Episode Two of The Seven Gates, a short, high-heat dark paranormal romance series of obsession, power and dangerous devotion.
About Rae Devine
Rae Devine writes about female agency through dark, carnal stories about power, temptation, and the kind of desire that blurs the line between worship and ruin.
Her worlds are steeped in sin and shadow, where pleasure bites, pain seduces, and surrender can feel a lot like freedom.
She believes dark romance and fantasy should be both dangerous and safe – a place to explore what burns beneath the surface.
She reads too much, gardens when she remembers, and has a weakness for good wine, bad ideas, and stories that dare to play with fire.
