Andrea exploded out of the staircase, her eyes huge.Someone broke into Curran’s private quarters in the Keep and welded his weight bench together. They also melted the lock on the room where he entert...

Andrea: ....I think a dog is a great idea. I just never pictured you with a mutant poodle. Kate: He isn’t a poodle. He’s a Doberman mix.Andrea: Aha. Keep telling yourself that.
Another howl ruptured the quiet, still too far away to be a threat. The Beast Lord, the leader, the alpha male, had to enforce his position as much by will as by physical force. He would have to answe...
Answer me this, did you hesitate at all or did you see the giant, go ‘Wheee!’ and run toward it? She ran toward it, Juke quipped. He was biting people in half. I rest my case, Curran said. A note woul...
Anticipation zinged through me. I knew exactly how much space separated us. I felt every inch of it, charged with electric energy. If he touched me right now, I’d probably jump a foot in the air. I st...

As I walked back to civilization, I realized that for the first time in the six months I had known Curran, we had managed to have a conversation and part ways without wanting to kill each other. I fou...
