His Wicked Touch, page 9
He slid beneath the sheets, desperate to feel her warmth. "How did you know?" he asked. She'd told him already, of course, but only in bits and pieces.
Now, though, he wanted to know the full story,
She curled against him. "I realized that since we were connected, the dreams must fit in somehow. It made sense that I was seeing things through your eyes. That scared me at first, because I thought it meant you were the attacker. But then I realized the truth. If I was seeing with your eyes and I was watching a black panther attack people—"
"Then I couldn't be the one doing the attacking?"
"And then I had the dream while you were in the cage, and I knew there had to be another. Someone that you were connected to. And you'd said you had a twin..."
“Yes,” he said. “An identical twin.”
She nodded. “I'm a cop. I trust my gut, but I also trust the evidence."
"You were right." He leaned over, capturing her mouth with his. "You believed in me. Even when I didn't believe in myself."
"Sometimes it's hard to believe in yourself," she said.
"I love you, Caitlyn."
Her smile lit her face. "I love you, too."
He held her close, just listening to the beat of her heart. "And, you know, I suppose I should also thank you," he said after minutes had ticked away. "You saved me, after all."
"I'm your mate, remember? That's what I'm supposed to do." She smiled. "Besides, I'd say we saved each other." She stroked his arm, then snuggled closer. "Will you miss it?"
He didn't have to ask what she meant. There was a freedom in being feline, a different perspective on the world. But no, he would not miss it. Now Caitlyn was his world, and that was all that he wanted.
"No," he said simply.
"Good." Her grin turned mischievous. "Because I intend to keep you rather occupied in the bedroom. If you did miss it, I'm afraid you'd be out of luck."
He affected a look of shock. "Are you suggesting, my dear, that you would use me for your sexual pleasure?"
"Indeed, I am, Mr. Agassou," she said. And then she slid under the sheet and began to show him in delicious, erotic, magnificent detail, just what exactly that sexual pleasure entailed.

Born in Darkness
Fight and redeem myself … refuse and suffer an eternity of torment.
I intended to kill him—to avenge my sister by destroying the vile human who’d tortured and broken her. My plan was simple. Foolproof.
Except somehow I ended up dead.
Now the joke’s on me, because I’ve been resurrected as an assassin and given a choice: Fight the forces of darkness and redeem myself … or refuse and suffer an eternity of torment.
The choice seems clear. But I’m unprepared for the depth of the evil I must face. And I’m unsettled by my attraction to the darkly sensual man whose words seduce me, but who is hiding secrets of his own.
All I know is what I’m told. I’m afraid I’m a pawn in a much larger game where I can’t tell my enemies from my allies. I just hope it’s a game I can win.

Carpe Demon
Kate Connor is your average, everyday mom with two kids, a husband, and one very big secret ... she used to be a Demon Hunter for a secret arm of the Vatican. Now retired, she's more interested in the domestic than the demonic. So when she catches sight of a demon in Wal-Mart, she tells herself it's some other Hunter's problem. But when that demon attacks her in her kitchen, retirement is no longer an option.
Now Kate has to kick a little demon butt, figure out why the creatures are trying to take her out and take over her home town, and at the same time take care of her 2 year old, deal with a hormonal 14 year old, get the family to Catholic Mass on time, and try to keep her past a secret from her daughter and her husband.
She's a little out of practice, but hey ... if she can juggle two kids and an impromptu dinner party, ridding the town of demons should be a piece of cake. Like the saying goes, Carpe Demon ... and Kate intends to do just that.
