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

      Its late, or more precisely early morning, when we return, and Marinahs sleeping. We scoured the city for signs of Smythe without success. The current storm raging inside me isnt good. I want my hands around the mans throat, and until it happens, I wont rest easy. I slide in beside my mate and pull her close. She rolls in against me out of habit. She mumbles something in her sleep, and shes out again. Im unsure if she woke at all.


      My brain is too restless to shut down right now.


      They come at night. Its said with the prisoners gruff voice.


      I turn and look at him. Our attempts at retrieving information from his messed-up head has been a bust so far. His answers are crazy blabbering gibberish. I have no idea how he stayed alive this long. Hes a danger to himself and others. Killing him will be merciful. He cant possibly survive here alone much longer, and I dont see a way to take him back to the outposts. Hes too unstable.
