It was like the word had been painted on her forehead for all to see. Esral had hoped that because she was the princess, she would escape the worst of the reproach but she had been mistaken. Her people had stopped to stare, to all out gape was perhaps a more apt description. They shook their head...
Though Gillian wasn’t hungry, she heard Shayne’s stomach growl. But they quietly got dressed, and Shayne rolled up the bedding. “Are you ready to go home?” he asked, putting the bedding in a corner. She barely stopped herself from saying that he was home. “It’s been…quite a ride hasn’t it?” Shayn...
She lay on her bedmat, an arm propped under her head, the ground rough and sharp. Fisk rested in the cradle of her side, his head propped on her hip, his weight comforting. In the distance she could hear the screams, smell the smoke rising over the nearby hills. She focused more intensely on the ...
Cadman chewed anxiously at the tips of his chubby fingers. He peeked through the slats of the shutters onto the lamp-lit street outside Arnbrook House.

NO ORDINARY SEX I (Trisha) am assuming some of you may have opened to this chapter before you even finished chapter one.

He carried a hatchet, which was the first thing I noticed in the dim light of the single candle. He looked surprised when he rushed in, but responded much faster than I anticipated. He shouted, automatically ducking, as Rick swung the baseball bat. It missed him, but struck the person behind him....
It was locked, but with nothing more than a cheap padlock. He didn’t know much about picking locks, but he’d brought a large screwdriver with him. Instead of going for the lock itself, he looked at the flimsy plate on the closet door. Without much difficulty – and with surprisingly little noise –...
Groin. I liked that word because it sounded much better than thinking my girl worked near cocks. I even let her eat lunch, get some energy into her. She’d need it. I’d taken her, and the wraiths hadn’t come. Now I couldn’t get enough. I could have her without turning her into a fae female. I’d ne...
She is very sorry, but must postpone her trip here for another few weeks. It seems little Katie has the measles.’ Celia crossed the courtyard, smiling. Tall, graceful and unmistakably English despite her Arabian clothing, with her glorious crown of Titian hair falling loose over her shoulders, sh...
Plus One ‘You’ll agree perhaps, chief inspector, that it’s time we had a serious talk …’ The mayor had said this in a tone of icy formality, and Leroy did not know Maigret well enough yet to judge his reaction from the way he blew out his pipe smoke.

While Damian finished his dinner, the wampyr reached across the table to retrieve Ragoczy’s abandoned copy of the Manhattanite. It was a full-sized paper, not the tabloid he had anticipated. When he flipped it open, though, his fingers stuck against the surface as if it were printed on fly...
Not that it mattered. I couldn’t concentrate on a single word Gunderman uttered. Anatomical vulnerabilities of demons, the boiling point of fiend’s blood, a hundred and one ways to shield your Watcher against demonic energies… It went in one ear and out the other. All I co...
Faith is her only sister. She’s blood. Even though Consuela tends to walk away from interactions with her sister hurt and slightly bruised, Faith means well. Faith is on her team and that’s enough. Their parents are in Switzerland, in Neuchâtel, which is a bit of a commute. Consuela talks to her ...
