As soon as his fingers brushed Cam's at the kitchen table, he knew they were mates, and he was about the rock Cam's world.

Now she's afraid she's just lost her new job. Rythen is aggravated. Logan is The Keeper of Secrets and that secretary of his is going to grant him an appointment with Logan or there will be hell to pay. What he didn't expect to find was his mate. As he lowered his head to hers a third time, she had a moment to think about what the others had said about him being something of an oddity, and wondered if she was going to get fired over this. Then his mouth took hers. There was no simple kiss in the way his mouth moved over hers. He didn't just kiss her so much as taste her and take everything she had. When his tongue moved over her lips, she felt as if she had no choice but to allow him entrance, and moaned when his heat entered her mouth. Kim decided that her boyfriend could go to hell; this was what a real man felt like. When something hard touched her, she moaned again when he rocked his hard shaft into her pussy. "You're not supposed to be here." She nodded, not having a clue what he was talking about. "I've waited centuries for you, and now that you're here, you're not what I can have." "I want you to take me." She nearly cried out when he lifted his head from her throat, and whimpered when he rocked into her again and again. "Please, you're making me ache doing this. Just take me." Elizabeth is running out of time and everyone at Aaron's Kiss is desperate to find a loophole in the contract. They will try anything to stop the inevitable, but is it too little too late?

Cain Waite watched the girl beneath his lashes. She was skinny he thought but very pretty. He wondered at the conversation she and the nurse was having enough that when the nurse left he followed. He wanted to help the girl and asked for permission to do so. "Damon Grant knows me. He can vouch for me as a doctor. I just want to see if I can help." It didn't matter really once he got back to the girl as she was lying in a pool of her own blood and unconscious. The girl went by many names. Julie was the one the nurse called her, Shade and also Miss Rocky was just a few more. But it was her real name that she held to her. No one must know who she was or they'd try and kill her.

He pushed the file back at Michael. "You want a wife? It was my understanding that you have no wish to be wed. Am I correct on that?" Galin nodded and looked at the file with the picture of a young boy on it. He appeared to be in his early teens maybe, but he wasn't much older than that. "Galin? Do you wish for me to reassign you? Do you have no desire to help this young man?" "I thought I was going into the rotation to find me a wife. The way that you did for Riss and Agon." He looked up at Boss and Michael, who had summoned him today. "I had thought that the Mystic's were a way for you to get rid of us all, and marrying us off was better than having us die.
