Chase still wondered why she was taking out humans. As far as he could tell, there wasn’t a drop of magic in her blood. Diana never even used her magic, but she still reeked of it, so he would have been able to tell if Mercy had some latent ability. Nope.
This was all irrelevant though. What mattered was that Mercy was trapped in that godforsaken place, and as long as she was, he couldn’t sleep at night. Other men may have been dismayed to find that their fated mate was a psycho killer, but she was still his mate. And men do not leave their mate to be forced to fight to the death for sport.
Chase listened carefully to the sounds of the house, searching for any indication that people were still awake. He would have to get out of here without anyone noticing. The others would not put their lives on the line for him again, and if he was careful, not even Draven would be able to track him. He would slip into Emerald Isle by himself, and somehow manage to free Mercy. After that… well, if she didn’t want to be with him, he couldn’t force her. But he could rest easy knowing that she was safe.
A little voice in his head mocked him for the thought that an assassin would ever be safe. He ignored it.
The house seemed quiet. He stood, careful not to bump the chair, and shouldered his backpack. Casting one last look around the room, he slipped out the door.
Ready For More?
The Hunt isn’t over, not by a long shot. The next book in Cass’s Emerald Isle Tigers is SOLDIER. It’s the story of Chase and Mercy, and their journey to find happily ever after…
An Excerpt From Soldier…
His beautiful killer was preparing to sleep. She had stripped off her dark armor, revealing pale expanses of creamy skin. Chase struggled to keep his breathing even as she bent over, tugging the leather pants downward. Her ass wiggled enticingly, clad in only a wispy scrap of cloth. Who would have thought that the countries deadliest assassin wore red lingerie under all that black?
His eyes were glued to her butt, his brain apparently short circuited. His breathing forgotten as he drank in as much as he could. This woman would never agree to be his mate, and he would never be able to forget her. He had to take what he could now, memories to sustain him for the rest of his miserable existence.
Mercy turned, revealing that tiny triangle of red between her legs, and Chase's breathing stopped entirely. His eyes traveled up her torso, along her flat stomach, finally coming to land on generous breasts. She wasn't wearing a bra. Pert nipples were slightly hard, no doubt reacting to the cold dungeon. God he wanted to suck those nipples. He would lave them with his tongue, twist them, bite them. She would beg him to stop, lest she lose control. He would show no mercy. And soon, so soon, she would be begging for his head between her thighs.
With that thought, his eyes dropped again, back to that treasured vee. Her hips swayed as she walked forward, towards the bars, towards... him.
