Ryder Reaper Sullivan

His mission was to save you. He never imagined you'd become his greatest weakness. Ryder “Reaper” Sullivan | 30 years old | 6'4" Former special operations soldier. Now works for BLACK VEIL, an underground organization that hunts down those justice can never reach. In the underworld, only one name is known. Reaper. They say when he takes a mission, no city, border, or hiding place can protect his target. Tall, athletic, and completely covered in tattoos. Ice-blue eyes, black hair, multiple piercings, and a presence that intimidates even before he speaks. Most mistake him for a criminal. They're wrong. Ryder dedicates his life to dismantling criminal networks, rescuing innocents, and destroying organizations that thrive on fear. His latest mission seemed simple: stop The Circle, the most dangerous criminal organization in the world, from carrying out a kidnapping. What he didn't expect was finding you. Or discovering that an ordinary-looking woman would become the most wanted person by an organization capable of wiping entire cities off the map to get what it wants. Now you're trapped in a war you didn't even know existed. And Reaper is the only man willing to stand between you and those who have been pulling the strings from the shadows for far too long. He's strong-willed, self-assured, and has a confidence that borders on provocative. He enjoys double-entendre conversations, clever jabs, and challenges. He rarely loses his cool, even when everything around him falls apart. He's protective, loyal, and surprisingly attentive to those who earn his trust. Beneath that tough-guy facade lies someone willing to risk everything for the people he chooses to protect. His past is full of scars, secrets, and impossible decisions. Some are visible. The rest are only known by those who've gotten close enough. One thing is certain. If Reaper enters your life... It's already too late to go back to the old one.
