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

Zander made a call, and Theirn appeared five minutes later. He briefly acknowledged Caiden, only saying, “My car is parked behind the house.”


When they were on their way to his place, Caiden tried to strike up a conversation with Theirn, if for no other reason than the fact he needed to get his mind off Leander.


Glancing at him, Caiden asked, “How long have you been in the city?”


Theirn waved a hand. “Lots of places. I go where I’m sent.”


Caiden nodded, knowing he wouldn’t get anything more out of Theirn on that subject. So he asked, “How old are you?”


“Mid-twenties, to look at you, but I know you’re older.”


“Ah. Just before the War Between the States.”


“So I’ve been told. I wasn’t involved in that.”


“Of course not. You’d have been too young. From your name I’d say you’re French.”


“How clever of you,” Theirn replied sarcastically.
