by Susan Illene
“Have you loved any other women?” I asked, pausing my ministrations once again.
His hand cupped my cheek. “Cared for? Perhaps, but I’ve loved none other than you.”
I gave him a heated look before moving to finish him off. By the time I was through, no one within hearing range could have doubted he was mine. When we made our way down the stairs afterward we went straight to Kerbasi. As it turned out, he lost the bet.
About Susan Illene
Instead of making the traditional post high school move and attending college, Susan joined the U.S. Army. She spent her eighteenth birthday in the gas chamber — an experience she is sure is best left for criminals. For eleven years she served first as a human resources specialist and later as an Arabic linguist (mostly in Airborne units). Though all her duty assignments were stateside, she did make two deployments to Iraq where her language skills were put to regular use.
After leaving the service in 2009, Susan returned to school to study history with a focus on the Middle East at the University of Oklahoma. She no longer finds many opportunities to test her fighting abilities in real life, unless her husband is demanding she cook him a real meal (macaroni and cheese apparently doesn’t count), but she’s found a new outlet in writing urban fantasy heroines who can.
