by Candace Blevins


  “She just did the street whore thing sporadically, usually when her main source of income had to go away for a while, or when her habit demanded too much and she ran short of cash. She’s a semi-functional addict: dependable for brief periods of time so long as you let her go on a bender every third or fourth week. She can keep herself even — enough she’s comfortable but can function — a few weeks, as long as she has an end date she can aim for.”

  I looked at him a few seconds, making sure I wanted to go on. He’d known all about Fury, which meant the MC already had the information before he asked for it, and only needed to check their files or whatever. No way had they hired Etta without knowing about her family. I wasn’t going to tell him anything he didn’t already know, and I’d get points for volunteering it. “She helps cut and prepare the product when it comes into town, packages it for resale. She’s done it a long time and knows what she’s doin’. Her partner and the big bosses know her limits and work within them. They’ve built a brand, and that means they need her skill at always getting’ it about the same, no matter how strong or weak it is when it lands.”

  Also, she uses some secret ingredients that make the flavor of the high slightly different, but Bubbles didn’t need that much information. “Unless Fury completely loses his mind, she should be safe.”

  I stopped in the hallway when he went into what I assumed was his bedroom. He pulled his shirt off and tossed it on top of a pile of what I figured were his other dirty clothes. I wondered if he intended for me to help him buy clothesbaskets, too.

  Mostly, though, I had to look away because Bubbles without a shirt was… damn. His muscles had muscles, and I’d never seen abs cut like that in real life before. Standing in the hallway looking in kinda felt like a peep show.

  “I’m gonna take a shower. Your room’s the one across the hall with the mattresses. I drop my clothes off at our laundry service every couple of weeks, so I won’t ask you to do my clothes, but if you want to wash the dishes from the morning and put the kitchen in order while I shower, I’ll be able to get right to cooking when I finish.”

  I put my bags in my room — which was literally a mattress on a box spring — no sheets, no curtains, tan walls, hardwood floors.

  The kitchen was tan walls, ceramic tile floors, nice cabinets, and really nice appliances. The dishwasher was half full, so I loaded everything into it, turned it on, and was wiping down the counters and stove when Bubbles walked in wearing boxer briefs and nothing else. I turned away from him fast — too fast, but I hadn’t wanted to stare. Damn, but he had bigger leg muscles than I’d ever seen on anyone, and his stomach muscles seemed to go all the way down to… fuck me. I could see why Etta said sex with him wasn’t a hardship.

  ABOUT THE AUTHOR

  Candace Blevins has published more than forty books. She lives with her husband of twenty-one years and their two daughters. When not working or driving teens all over the place, she can be found reading, writing, meditating, or swimming. The family’s beloved, goofy, retired racing greyhound is usually at her side as she writes, quietly keeping her company.

  Candace writes Urban Fantasy, Paranormal Romance, Contemporary BDSM Romance, and a kick-ass Motorcycle Club series.

  Her urban fantasy series, Only Human, gives us a world where weredragons, werewolves, werelions, three different species of vampires, and a variety of other mythological beings exist.

  Candace's two paranormal romance series, The Chattanooga Supernaturals and The Rolling Thunder Motorcycle Club, are both sister series to the Only Human series, and give some secondary characters their happily ever after.

  Her Dark(ish) Faerie Tale series gives us a close-up and personal look at Queen Mab, and her Dark Underbelly series is, as you’d expect, dark and (if you’re a little twisted) oh-so-yummy.

  Her contemporary Safeword series gives us characters who happen to have some extreme kinks. Relationships can be difficult enough without throwing power exchange into the mix, and her books show characters who care enough about each other to fight to make the relationship work. Each couple in the Safeword series gives the reader a different take on the lifestyle.
