Caiden McNeil is a special being, a metamorph who can become any human necessary to stop the criminals his elven boss Zander sends him after.<br><br>Caiden is also a loner, unable to trust anyone on an emotional level. He has reason to feel this way: in his over eight-hundred years, he has learned that caring for someone only leads to despair. After all, how could a human accept him for what he really is, an immortal who will never seem to grow older than his apparent age of twenty-eight?<br><br>Then two men come into Caiden's life -- Leander, a cougar shifter, and Theirn, a half-elf. Either may betray Caiden and his belief that their feelings for him are real. On the other hand, is one of them willing to fight to prove love is possible, if Caiden will only give it a chance?

Perhaps, Someday

Styge stayed right beside Caiden as they walked down the stairs from the balcony and the along the path to the water’s edge, stopping at the pier. There, the cat paused. Then very tentatively put a paw into the water, pulling it back quickly, shaking it. Caiden laughed. “Yep. Wet. Not a cat’s favorite thing.”


Figuring if Styge decided to veer away and go exploring on his own, that he could catch him, Caiden moved on along the path beside the canal. The cat did explore, but always stayed within eyesight of Caiden during their two-hour walk. When they got back to the house, Styge ate and then curled up in one corner of the sofa while Caiden fixed his own lunch.


Okay, it’s been less that twenty-four hours, and things might change once he gets more comfortable, and confident, but so far I think getting Styge was the best idea I’ve had in forever.
