  Leo’s jaw fell. “You…all along…you…I thought you were worried about Malik going crazy!”

  “I was.” True enough.

  “I thought you feared he’d destroy the world!”

  Leo needed to calm down. That red color couldn’t be healthy, even for an immortal. “If Josephine had died, that’s exactly what would have happened.”

  Leo’s eyes widened.

  Now his brother was getting it. Luke nodded approvingly. “But everything worked out in the end. Josephine will keep him sane. He will always give her the energy boost she needs so that Josephine doesn’t have to drain hapless prey.” The freedom she had always wanted. “And, bonus, turns out an angel’s power can pass through the Veil. With what Josephine knows now, I suspect the Fey will start keeping all of their memories.” Or, at least, the Fey queen would.

  Leo just glared. Why wasn’t the guy celebrating? Someone just couldn’t see the big picture.

  “They’ll bring order back beyond the Veil, and…” Leo gave a little shrug. “Everyone’s happy.”

  “I’m not,” Merius muttered.

  That much was obvious to everyone. “Yes, well, good luck with all of that.” He cleared his throat. “But at least you know where your Fey vamp is. Can’t we count that as a win for you?”

  Without a word, Merius grabbed the giant mirror. He heaved it up and carried it out of the suite.

  Dorrin shook his head and followed after him.

  Silence.

  “I hate you. You know that, right?” Leo asked.

  Luke just smiled.

  “How about including me in your plans sometimes? We can work together.”

  Had Leo missed everything? “We just did work together.”

  “I hate you,” Leo groused again. Then he sighed. A long, disgusted sound. “Merius does realize that his vampire isn’t actually inside that mirror, right?”

  “Hmmm…I’m not sure about that.”

  “You’re going to make me handle him, aren’t you?”

  “Absolutely…” Because he had plans. His mate was waiting on him.

  He needed to get back upstairs to her. Because really, it had been one hell of a day…

  The End

  Want more from Cynthia Eden? Then get ready for an all new romantic suspense, DON’T TRUST A KILLER.

  Don’t Trust A Killer

  To catch a killer…you have to use the perfect bait.

  FBI Agent Bree Harlow is working the biggest case of her career. She’s undercover on the hunt for a killer who has murdered three women—and she isn’t going to stop until she brings down her prey. She’s scored a job at Night’s Edge, the hottest club in New Orleans, and she’s just caught the attention of the club’s owner, the sexy and dangerous Kace Quick. Everyone knows the guy is shady—and probably linked to every criminal activity in the Big Easy. She shouldn’t find him so attractive. Shouldn’t want to do anything but lock the guy away. After all, he is her chief suspect.

  Be careful…sometimes, you can’t see the danger coming.

  Kace knows there is far more to Bree than meets the eye. He isn’t a fool, and he can spot a Fed from a mile away, though he does admit that Bree is the sexiest FBI agent he’s ever seen. He lets her play her game, though Kace plans to keep his hands very far off his gorgeous new problem. Then the attacks begin. Attacks all focused on Bree. And suddenly, it’s not a game any longer because Kace isn’t about to let his FBI agent get caught in the crossfire.

  To hurt a man, you have to destroy what he wants most.

  Kace has a powerful enemy working in the darkness—a man who wants to destroy Kace by making him look guilty as hell. Kace is being set up for murders he didn’t commit. And now, the killer has locked onto his next victim—Bree. Despite Kace’s best efforts, he has let Bree get too close. For the first time in years, Kace cares about someone else—a fatal flaw. And the killer in the dark can’t wait to make Kace pay for past sins…The killer thinks he can hurt Bree, and by hurting her, the mighty Kace Quick will fall.

  Things aren’t always as they appear…

  Bree won’t be anyone’s victim. She’s not the damsel in distress—she’s the woman ready to take down a murderer. She’ll break every rule in the FBI’s precious handbook in order to protect the lover she knows is innocent. Kace is hers, and Bree won’t let anyone hurt him. She’ll catch the real killer, she’ll prove his guilt, and maybe, just maybe, Bree and Kace can stop their world from going down in flames.

  Sex, murder, and lies…just another day in the Big Easy…
