\"Hunter's<\/a><\/p>\n

Some love can last a lifetime\u2014their love was destined to last longer.<\/p>\n

Angel\u2019s first words to Kel were I\u2019m going to marry you. She was seven at the time. He was eight. And he didn\u2019t laugh when she spoke the words. Best friends as children, lovers as young adults, they had an unexplainable bond. Their future looked set. Until the night they were attacked by a creature that couldn\u2019t exist.<\/p>\n

Angel survived the attack\u2014barely. But Kel didn\u2019t. Or at least, nobody thought he did. His body was never found and Angel\u2019s life would never be the same.<\/p>\n

The attack might not have killed Kel\u2019s body, but it sure as hell killed his heart. Twelve years later, there\u2019s one part of his former life that he can\u2019t move past. Angel. He can\u2019t let her go, but he can\u2019t have her either. She doesn\u2019t even realize he is still alive.<\/p>\n

But when a threat surfaces, Kel\u2019s willing to do whatever it takes to protect Angel. Even if it drives them both to the edge of insanity and back.<\/p>\n

This book is part of the author\u2019s Hunter series, but can be read as a standalone.<\/address>\n

Anger permeated the entire enclave. That a vicious, brutal feral with a taste for rape and murder was so close\u2013or at least had<\/em> been so close, and they hadn\u2019t realized it until now, it weighed on the lot of them.<\/p>\n

But it was crushing Kel. Destroying what little soul he had left. \u201cPhoebe ran because of me.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cShe ran because of her,\u201d Sheila countered. \u201cI know you, Kel. You wouldn\u2019t have led her to believe in any way that you might love her. Women…\u201d she shrugged, a bitter smile on her lips. \u201cWe can usually tell when somebody loves us or not. Too often, even when we suspect the answer is not, <\/em>we don\u2019t want to accept that. You can\u2019t fault yourself for not loving her, any more than you can fault her for falling in love with you…or at least fooling herself into it. Phoebe was a big girl, Kel. She\u2019d made it in this world before Rafe set up territory here. She knew there were risks and predators\u2013and she made the choice to leave. Nobody forced it on her.\u201d<\/p>\n

Neither of them heard the footsteps. Until Rafe\u2019s voice cut through the tension in the air, they hadn\u2019t even realized he was there. But as they turned to look at the Master, both of them felt something change…a subtle shift in the air.<\/p>\n

Subtle\u2013but it came with something icy and ugly. Something that filled Kel with dread.<\/p>\n

\u201cDon\u2019t tell me he\u2019s killed again,\u201d he rasped. Disgusted and furious, his hands closed into fists and the refrain started to circle through his mind once more.<\/p>\n

Helpless. Useless. Worthless<\/em>.<\/p>\n

The feral\u2019s words whispered through his mind.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m going to rip your heart out of your chest and smash it. You will die this time.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Kel\u2019s own respondse…\u201cPromise?\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Better off if the feral had<\/em> killed him. Kel could be replaced. Rafe could get somebody besides Kel\u2019s sorry ass in here, somebody who actually understood the purpose, somebody who cared.<\/p>\n

\u201cNo, Kel. He hasn\u2019t killed anybody yet that we know about.\u201d\u00a0 Rafe glanced at his wife.<\/p>\n

The look that passed between them didn\u2019t do a damn thing to make Kel feel better.<\/p>\n

Neither did the appearance of Dominic and Toronto emerging from the hallway to flank Rafe. Toronto wouldn\u2019t have finished checking things out in Tupelo already\u2014which meant he was back because Rafe had sent for him.<\/p>\n

Dominic\u2019s brown eyes weren\u2019t quite as blank as Toronto\u2019s or Rafe\u2019s. Dominic wasn\u2019t that much older than Kel, in both human and vampire terms, and he hadn\u2019t yet learned the fine art of hiding every single emotion.<\/p>\n

The look in Dom\u2019s eyes was one of worry, one of caution\u2013and it had to do with Kel. He could feel it.<\/p>\n

In a hoarse voice, Kel asked, \u201cWhat\u2019s going on, Rafe?\u201d<\/p>\n

Rafe, his voice impassive, said, \u201cIt has to do with what you left behind.\u201d<\/p>\n

Startled, Kel blinked. \u201cWhat I left…\u201d Understanding came fast and hard.<\/p>\n

Home.<\/em><\/p>\n

…Angel…<\/em> She was the only one he\u2019d left behind that could still matter.<\/p>\n
