Water Viper Excerpt:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tall, dark, handsome, and smirking rose from his stool and strode towards me, coming to a halt just beyond arm\u2019s length. \u201cAren\u2019t you supposed to take all their cash?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If he came a single step forward, he\u2019d be in perfect range to take out. I stuffed the money in my jeans, and while I still had my hand in my pocket, I slid a sedation needle out of its sheath around my wrist, which was hidden beneath my blouse\u2019s sleeve. \u201cI took my retainer fee.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Raising his dark eyebrows, he looked me over head to toe, and I noted his gaze lingered on my hips. Working as a mercenary kept me lean and muscular, but I still managed to have curves\u2014curves men liked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I blamed my shifter heritage. With my luck, when I discovered my inner beast and learned to transform, I\u2019d end up a cow. I\u2019d already screwed up my gender, so it was only a matter of time before I fucked the rest up, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cYou\u2019re for hire, then?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cDepends on what you need.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bursts of green and gold lit the man\u2019s dark eyes. \u201cI wouldn\u2019t mind you guarding my body at night. You know how to fight. You toyed with them. If you\u2019re bored, I could keep you amused.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At a glance, I couldn\u2019t tell what he was or what magic he possessed, but his interest in me and my fighting likely made him a shifter. Shifter males, especially of predatory species, liked women who challenged them and refused to submit without a fight, preferably a violent, bloody one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unfortunately, too many shifter males played for keeps, and when they took interest in a female, it was because they wanted to breed. Some species of shifters mated for life. Others stayed around long enough to ensure they had viable offspring before drifting away until the next mating season when they would find a new female and spread the love around.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
