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

Can I do this? Theirn wondered as he got dressed the next morning. Will I be able to convince Caiden that we belong together? That I will never hurt him the way he’s been hurt before?


He had his doubts, but for damned sure he was going to give it one more try. He missed Caiden. He wanted what they had begun to build between them—the caring that might have led to more—before Caiden shut down and walked away from it—and him.


On the drive to Caiden’s home, Theirn came up with, and rejected, several ideas on how to approach Caiden. All of them required Caiden to actually acknowledge Theirn was there, rather than ignoring the doorbell or a phone call. One thing Theirn did decide. He would not drive right up to the house. Instead, he would park well out of sight and walk the rest of the way.
