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?

“I’m glad. Now I have to find one, too.”


Sand chuckled. “You know it’s all for show, and to keep busy. Neither of us has to work.”


“True, but…Oh, well, I’ll figure it out when I get there. Right now I have to pack what I’m bringing with me, before dawn, so I can leave as soon as I wake up.”


“Then shut up and do it. I’ll see you when you when I see you. Oh, call, first. I’ll probably be dead to the world.”


“I will.” Andre hesitated then said, “I miss you, and it’s been less than a day.”


“Miss you, too,” Sand replied softly. “So pack, sleep, and get your fine ass out here.”


Laughing, Andre said, “That’s the plan.”
