Knowing he’d fuck me in that forest in the dark, probably pushing me up against the rough bark of one of those trees, made me hot and bothered and eager for his cock.

Why lie? There wasn’t a point. Iwantedhim to catch me.

But afterward, once we both had come, I would have to leave him because as fiercely as he wanted to protect me, I needed to protect him, too.

Chapter 7 Xenon

Grace was planning to run. I knew it as soon as I received that call from Grim.

“Where the fuck are you, Xenon?”

“With Grace.”

“Is she in trouble?”

“Yeah, Pres, she’s got a human trafficking ring after her.”

“The fuck? I thought we ended all those motherfuckers.”

“That shit is like a hydra,” I began, thinking of what Grace said.

“You cut off one head, and two more appear,” he finished.

“Exactly.”

“What are you gonna do?”

“Protect my woman.”

“And if those fuckers come after you?”

“They’ll meet my Reaper,” I growled.

“Good. Keep me informed. No fucking surprises.”

“I will.”

“If you need help, ask for it. No vigilante shit. I don’t want to deal with another fucking Rael.”

“You got it, Pres.”

We ended the call right as I heard the knob turn on my back door. Yeah, I brought Grace to my house in Vegas. I owned several in Nevada and paid to keep them clean on a regular basis. Once I knew I’d be in the area, I called to have the pantry and fridge stocked for my visit.

If Grace realized the house was mine, she didn’t mention it.

I followed her onto the deck, closing in right before she rushed down the stairs. As I held her against me, inhaling the delicate scent of her shampoo, I knew I’d have to let her run and that I’d chase her.

She enjoyed playing games, and so did I. This game? It had high stakes, but both of us would win.

Just the thought of sinking my cock into her tight pussy was already making me so fucking hard I could hardly focus on the chase. My body felt wired, and my muscles taut, ready to spring into action. Anticipation coiled in my gut.

We’ll claim her,my Reaper promised.

In the dark,I agreed.She’s ours.

The last of the sun’s golden and pink rays slipped beneath the horizon. In minutes, the whole area would be dark. There wasn’t much light left, but it would be enough for my hunt.

“Hunter,” Grace pleaded, already begging for all I wanted to give her.
