Rök Kours, her nemesis. The mercenary she mused about far too often.
What was he doing at this castle? And how could she get rid of him
before the moon rose?
He narrowed his smoky-blue eyes, their color vivid against his tanned
skin. “You.”
When he climbed the castle’s steps to join her at the entry, she held her
ground, yet her gaze couldn’t help but sweep over his chiseled features with
appreciation—his wide jaw, strong chin, and aquiline nose.
She got lost for a moment when she met those heavy-lidded eyes before
she dragged her focus upward. His thick black hair was long enough to tie
back in a queue, but tonight he wore it loose to cover most of his silvery
horns. Over the years she’d seen them flared with aggression—and once
with passion.
His demon-may-care attitude matched his appearance. A frayed, navy
T-shirt highlighted his muscular chest and arms, and his worn jeans clung to
his narrow hips. Scuffed boots and a sword belted around his waist rounded
out the ensemble.
He looked tired though, as if he’d just rolled out of bed from his latest
conquest. Likely.
Finding her voice, she said, “I wish I could say this was a pleasure, but
it never is with you.” She was proud of how calm she sounded when
unwelcome chemistry simmered between them like a bubbling potion.
It temporarily overrode her nerves about tonight’s mission: breach this
castle at moonrise, find her prize, then get out during the brief window at
moonset.
“Never a pleasure?” Rök’s rumble of a voice pricked her senses. “You
know that’s a lie.” His lips curved into a slow, mind-scrambling smile that
showed off white teeth with a hint of his demon fangs. “You liked my kiss
well enough.”
Their sole kiss on their sole date.
Two years ago, when he’d slanted his mouth over hers in the rain, she’d
moaned with abandon and dug her nails into his back, her body desperate
for his.
Her body was a fucking idiot. “Will you never stop bringing that up?”
Would she never stop replaying the feel of those lips?
Rain-wetted, demon-hot.
His talented tongue was pointed —
“As soon as you stop staring at my mouth like you fancy another one.”
She darted her gaze away. “I don’t have time for your games tonight.
Some of us are on the clock.” And much was on the line.
She glanced past him to survey the two-hundred-room castle. Lightning
flashed behind its gravity-defying towers. Thunder clapped: BOOM BOOM.
A nearby pond gave up sulfurous fumes. Dead spruces circled it, limned in
silver flickers.
To complete the property’s ill-omened look, a cemetery lined one side
of the overgrown drive. The tombstones were all askew, like a witch’s hat
after a bender. A couple of ghouls skulked amidst the weathered stones.
