Never
take Fate along on a date. The kiss goodnight could be deadly.
Tracking down Veilers—non humans—is only a sideline
for Tess Damon. Vengeance for her fiancé’s murder is her reason for living. But
with two botched jobs on her record, if she fails to eliminate her next mark,
she’s dead. She’s not afraid to die, but not before she gets even. Too bad fate
has a really bad sense of humor.
Hugh Langston, a wolfen half shifter, lives to keep
both humans and his pack safe. But when rogue humans kidnap his apprentice, his
rescue mission is compromised by a hot-as-hell, kick-ass woman who makes him
think only one thing: mine.
Tess tries to ignore her feelings, but temptation
trips her up. Especially when Hugh figures out he’s her next target and forces
her into an inconvenient alliance that tests all the laws against their
attraction. Now, with the line between good and evil getting blurrier by the
minute, it becomes clear Tess’s only hope of living to see another day—and
finding a murderer—lies with the one man she’s supposed to kill.

“Cut the crap, Tess. Why were you following me?”
“How do you know I was following you?” Oops. She meant to
say, “What makes you think I was
following you?”
He gave a knowing smile—that looked ridiculously sexy rather
than irritating. “I know you don’t want to insult my intelligence so let’s just
say for argument’s sake, if you were following me, why would that be?”
At least she’d gotten him to change his tone.
“Truthfully?” She leaned a little closer to him. She
couldn’t help it.
“That would be nice.”
“I’m really not a very nice person,” she announced.
“Neither am I.” He reached out and moved a strand of hair
behind her ear.
Was he trying to confuse her? Because it was working. She’d
nearly fallen into his hand before he pulled it away. He was indeed a very bad
man.
“That’s good. I hate nice guys. So where does that leave
us?”
“I haven’t got all night, Tess.” He lowered his chin,
indicating—she presumed—he was growing tired of their banter.
She lifted an eyebrow. “No? That’s too bad. I’m a night owl.
I can—”
“Answer my question before I haul you to your car over my
shoulder.” His tone sent a little zing of pleasure right to the tips of her
breasts.
“As if you could—” She was over his shoulder in one second
flat. He moved swiftly, quietly and with superhuman strength. Uh oh. “Hey, put me down!”
He started down the alley, seemingly unbothered by her
spastic attempts to get him to let her go. “You ready to walk and talk now?”
“Fine,” she conceded, although the view of his backside was
pretty damn good.
When both feet securely hit the ground, she tugged down her
dress and shifted the V-neck into place. He watched her squirm to put the rest
of the material back where it belonged and his roving eyes heated her from the
inside out.
“I followed you because I wanted to help.”
He started walking. “Do I look like I need help?” A little
gleam—and major interest?—flickered in his sideways glance.
“Well, no. But I’m very capable and I didn’t feel like going
home, so I decided there was no harm in making myself available to you should
you need me.” She took a deep breath. It was time to put the question out
there. “Did you know Dane is a—”
“Wolfen? Yeah I know.”
“How do you—”
He stopped and turned toward her with confusion and passion
in his deep blue eyes. For several seconds he stared at her, like he was trying
to get inside her head. Guess what she was thinking. “I’m the leader of the
Night Runners,” he finally said.
She imagined he’d told her something he’d never told another
human being before.
What the hell was she going to do now?
