He has been so damaged by all that happened to him, and it is manifested in every single area of his life.Īnd this is why Bella is so awesome. Z’s past history of blood slavery, torture and hideous abuse is told through both his and Phury’s flashbacks, and it is truly tragic. But as much as he may want to help her, his past issues are a constant burden on him. He is all she wants, and she isn’t shy about letting him, and everybody else, know it. Even though he is still seriously effed up, he puts Bella first, and does all he can to help her heal.īella’s need for Zsadist is clear from the very beginning.

Finding her horribly wounded and brutalised, his tender, caring and protective side comes out as he takes her in, guards her and nurses her back to health (in his gruff, warrior-like way), and it is absolutely GORGEOUS! I love seeing protective Zsadist. In this book we get to see the heart-pounding moment when Z rescues Bella. But Z demonstrates just how much Bella affected him when she is kidnapped by Lessers, and Z becomes obsessed with finding her. In the last book, Lover Eternal, we met Bella, a female vampire who was instantly enthralled by Zsadist, and the two of them shared an ‘interesting’ moment when she made it very clear she wanted him, and he completely freaked out.

Because of the vicious persona he puts on, people are generally too terrified to get close – even those living in the Mansion keep a wide distance from him, and he lives a solitary life, ignoring practically everybody except for his twin brother, Phury. Scary looking, and covered in disfiguring scars, he does his job, and enjoys the killing, but he is mysterious, intimidating and incredibly misunderstood. The coldest, hardest, and most sadistic of the Brotherhood, Zsadist holds himself away from the rest of his brothers. Arguably the most popular of all of the Black Dagger Brotherhood books, and very worthy of that, Zsadist’s story is a heartbreakingly beautiful story of the redemptive power of love.
