chapter 1

Emily sat in her car outside of the warehouse and clasped her hands together to steady them. She was terrified but determined. It was a chilly autumn day, and the small trees that lined the road had lost most of their leaves as they prepared for winter, giving them a somewhat skeletal aura. Above, gray skies stretched out, blotting the sun in a heavy weight of dreariness. It mirrored her mood nicely.At another time—what seemed like a lifetime ago—she’d loved the fall. Colors, crunchy leaves, and the hint of warm apple cider in the air had always filled her with a sense of happiness. Of contentment. Now, in this place so far from home, it was just a cold reminder of hard months ahead.Any minute the warehouse employees would be leaving the building, and she was going to confront him. She’d never seen him in perso

chapter 2

William sat at the butcher-block table in the small kitchen of the house he shared with Paoli. He stared at the paper before him—scripted in Paoli’s neat handwriting—with open surprise. On the page was a single name and species along with location. “Are you sure this is right?” He asked with a frown.“It’s right,” Paoli confirmed without even glancing at him on his way past.“When was the last time we had a female werewolf?” William raised a skeptical brow.“It’s rare they’re marked," Paoli agreed, taking the

chapter 3

Emily was doomed. She was aware of the fact with a quiet acceptance and surprisingly enough, it left her with no fear. In a way, she expected it when she made the decision to track her missing sister into a werewolf den in a pitiful attempt at a rescue. After six months of planning and searching, she really should have thought out the actual rescue a little better. What was she thinking, trying to infiltrate a werewolf pack?

chapter 4

Emily gripped with her knees and buried one hand deep into the thick pelt to keep herself from falling off. Her other hand was clamped around Amber’s ever-changing waist in a desperate effort to keep her upright so Emily could use her body as a brace. It was sort of like the world’s most dangerous juggling act, with the threat of certain death if any of her body parts gave out too soon. Her thighs began to shake with the effort of holding on, but the sound of howls closing in as the wolves gave chase seemed to lend her exhausted muscles the strength she needed.When the massive wolf came to a sudden halt, she nearly flipped over his head, and was only saved by the appearance of strong hands on her waist. She jerked away in surprise and turned to find the blond man standing beside her, a man again.With reluctance an

chapter 5

Emily had read everything she could get her hands on about the world her sister disappeared into in the months she’d been missing. While perhaps not a full-blown expert, not a lot of people knew as much about the legendary creatures of the night as she did. Therefore, as soon as her mind cleared, she knew exactly what had been done to her.She’d been enthralled by a vampireThey were the only creatures capable of such an act.She’d been right about Paoli.He was an honest-to-God blood sucking vampire.Not really alive, but not dead.He was undead.There w

chapter 6

William leaned against the door with his head near the partially open window for the last part of the drive. His body hadn’t fully cooled from having Emily in his arms, and the wind helped to dilute her scent somewhat.He breathed a sigh of relief when he finally pulled into the garage and got out of the car. Emily got out, looked around, and gave him a look of surprise from across the car roof. For the briefest of seconds, her surprise puzzled him. Then it dawned on him and he gave her knowing smile as he closed his door.“Were you expecting something else?” He quirked one teasing brow.Emily froze. She didn’t want to offend them.Again.But she hadn’t

chapter 7

William led her to the spare room, trying to keep his mind clear of the images it seemed determined to show him. Emily followed him around the space, politely nodding when he indicated the bathroom in the corner. He was not picturing her within the shower, naked and soapy.He was not.A sudden dry lump formed in his throat and he swallowed hard. With more speed than courtesy, he indicated fresh shirts in the drawer and left the room as quickly as possible. Being alone in a bedroom while not touching her was like torture, and he didn’t want to push his shaky control too far.He closed the door behind him and found Paoli waiting in the hall, his expression uncharacteristically serious. “We need to talk,” Paoli said solemnly.

chapter 8

Emily woke much earlier than usual, feeling trapped and claustrophobic. She made her way to the bathroom and splashed cold water on her face, then noticed her reflection looked as exhausted as she felt. Her eyes were bleary with dark patches beneath them, and her skin was much paler than normal, which gave her an unpleasant pause.How sure was she that no one was feeding on her?She leaned forward, checking her throat carefully in the mirror. There didn’t appear to be any bite marks, and the cross was still protectively around her neck, which made her feel better. Somewhat.Cautiously satisfied she was simply suffering from sleeplessness, she got dressed in last night’s clothes. What she needed was some space and fresh air to settle herself. Her nerves weren’t about t

chapter 9

“What have you done!?” Screamed a shrill, angry voice.The blood-curdling sound woke everyone at once, followed by the loud jangle of wind chimes as the bedroom door was jerked open.Emily leapt from her bed—instantly wide awake. She scrambled through the door and into the hall, her only thought on getting to Amber to explain all that happened before her sister said or did something to make her own precarious situation worse. Her very life was in the hands of their hosts, whether she knew it or not. Emily needed to explain the situation before Amber opened her mouth to them.A low, warning growl stopped her in her tracks less than halfway down the hall. William appeared from his bedroom doorway a moment later, blocking her path. His feet and chest were bare again, and

chapter 10

Within hours, Emily found herself unarmed and standing on an airplane runway between a vampire and a ‘complicated’ man who could turn into the world’s biggest wolf. She was feeling slightly dazed and unreal. Everything happening seemed to have a dream-like quality.Behind them, a small white hanger stood in shadows. In front of them, a small plane taxied to a halt like a weird cab. The hatch opened to show a man she’d never seen.His hair was long, similar to Paoli’s shoulder length.She wondered absently if that meant they were from the same time period. She eyed Paoli critically. She turned to look at William, wondering about his age, and found he was scowling at her for some reason. She scowled back in response, and returned her attention to the pilot,
