Due to my deceased father, the government decided I may have an inside to the fighting force we need to save humanity. They call him King of the Shadow Warriors. Shadow Warriors are elite fighters, who, after shifting form, have sharp claws and teeth capable of eviscerating a human without blinking an eye. If that isn’t a reason to run the other direction, I don’t know what is. The problem? We need the Shadow Warriors or we die. To gain their trust, I must impress King.

My government sent me in a short dress and heels to do the job. They seem to think a sexy body will increase their chances of gaining his help. I took the assignment freely even though my feelings on the outcome offer no comfort.

That brings me to the biggest problem in the entire scenario: King will eat me!

Shifter King

      King sits back with his cup of coffee and watches me devour breakfast. I dont even care. I do, however, notice that the hard lines on his forehead smooth out as he relaxes. I would say it makes him look softer but nothing about him is soft. This morning hes in black military pants and a black T-shirt that molds to his chest. His bicep bulges as he lifts his coffee cup to his mouth. A question goes off in my mind that wont leave me. No straps this morning but that doesnt mean his chest is any less defined. He said he will kill me and I believe every word yet Im unafraid, which is so unlike me. I guess it could be the food. For some reason the thought of my pending death isnt worrying me. Maybe Ive faced my fears and come out the other side a tad bit stronger. Who knows? Its just nice to not have the worry hanging over me.
