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

“I’ll meet with Rian,” Caiden said decisively.


“I was hoping you’d take that track,” Zander replied. “You’re the only one I trust to get to the bottom of things and find out if my brother is what he seems to be—a criminal. Or if I jumped to conclusions without hearing him out and offering to help him if he needed it.” He sighed deeply. “He is my brother and I love him. I always will. If I was wrong, I have to make it up to him.”


Caiden called Leander as soon as he left Zander’s home, since he now had his number. He told his—lover, he supposed—that he wanted to meet Rian. Leander promised to set it up, and half an hour later he called back to say the meeting was on for that evening. “No dinner involved,” he told Caiden, laughing, before giving Caiden an address on St. Charles Avenue. “He expects you at seven.”
