Vampires and werewolves are natural enemies. Therefore, Andre has no regrets about killing Raúl, the Alpha of the Wintermane pack, who plans to attack the Crimson Cathedral nightclub, revealing the presence of vampires to the human world. When Sand learns of his brother's murder, he debates seeking revenge because he hates Raúl, who backed their father when he forced Sand out of the pack for being gay. Then, he discovers that Estebe, the new Alpha, plans to continue Raúl's mission. Things come to a head when Sand, a bodyguard, escorts a client's daughter to the nightclub and the club's owner tells Andre to find out why Sand is there. Despite their differences, instant lust drives Andre into Sand's bed-but not before they agree to work together to stop Estebe. Can they successfully end Estebe's existence -- and survive? And, will their relationship stand a chance as lust turns to an attraction that defies the belief that they are supposed to be mortal enemies?

Unnatural Allies

When Andre reappeared he was finger-combing his damp hair in an obvious attempt to tame it. “Bed-head,” he commented ruefully. Sitting on the edge of the bed, he put on his shoes and socks, and then picked up his shirt, shaking his head. “I don’t suppose you’ve got one I can borrow.”


“Not into the buttonless look?” Sand chuckled. Going to the closet, he asked, “Blue, white, green?”


“Blue, if you don’t mind.” Andre caught it when Sand tossed it to him. “Now, what’s bothering you?”


“I’ve been trying to reach Dimas since I got up. He’s not answering, so given the circumstances I’m worried.”


“Of course. All the pack males do. Jobs, homes, everything, the same as anyone else, human or otherwise. There’s a small town on the edge of the Wintermane territory where most of them live and work.”
