“She’s not lying,” Karma said and looked around at the faces in the room. They knew who the spy was now. What they didn’t know, was why.
“Very good,” Nevaeh said and smiled at the girl. “I’m afraid I have to kill you now though. We can’t keep you here, and we can’t risk you warning anyone about what happened here either.”
“No, please, I won’t tell anyone,” Lori said, practically begging as her resolve finally slipped.
“Sweetie, I bet you never thought you’d tell us anything, either,” Nevaeh said and frowned. “You aren’t very good with secrets.”
“Please,” Lori begged.
“I would apologize, but I’d be lying,” Nevaeh said as she pulled a wooden dagger from her belt and buried it deep in Lori’s heart.
“We may have a bigger problem than the spy,” Karma said and looked back at the phone screen.
“Oh?” Ramsey asked and walked to where she was sitting. “What is that?”
“Look at this,” she replied and handed him the phone.
“What am I looking at?” He asked, not knowing what all those numbers meant.
“If I’m right, these are latitude and longitude coordinates,” Karma replied and reached for the list they’d assumed was invoice numbers, and the little book. “If we compare these, I’d almost bet we will find these ships at these coordinates on these dates.”
“Are you saying that whoever left this information has given us the exact locations and dates of the deliveries?” Eduardo asked, and Karma nodded.
“If that’s the case, who could it have been?” Harrison asked.
“I think I know that too,” Karma said and took the phone from Ramsey.
After closing out the coordinates screen, she pulled up another screen then handed the phone to Nevaeh.
“Oh my God,” Nevaeh said, almost silently. “You think Analia was that close and we didn’t even know it?”
“I do, and I think after the incident at your old house, she decided to help us. That’s a sign she isn’t completely under Crompton’s control, at least not any longer,” Karma said and smiled. “That means we may be able to rescue her and her give us all she knows about Crompton.”
“We will find her,” Harrison told her before he turned to the Senate. “What do we do about the spy?”
“I have an idea about that too,” Karma answered and grinned. “It’ll take a lot of deception though.”
“I’m good with that,” Harrison replied with a grin of his own.
“Good, then here’s what we’re going to do,” she started and laid out the plan she’d been forming in her head.
When she was finished, everyone nodded their agreement and the Senate left.
“Remind me to never piss you off,” Harrison said and smiled.
“Let’s get her out of here,” Dylan said, nodding toward Lori, “then we can set our plan in motion.”
Chapter Sixteen
“Nevaeh,” Harrison said quietly from just outside her room.
“You can come in,” she said as she wrapped a towel around herself and secured it just above her breasts.
She walked out of the bathroom just as he closed the door and turned around. He froze, his eyes locked on the droplets of water sliding down her shoulders. His tongue pressed against his teeth, trying to escape the confines of his mouth to taste every inch of her creamy skin.
“You’re looking at me like you want to eat me,” she said slowly.
Without saying a word, he flashed to her and cupped her head in his hands, tangling his fingers in her hair.
“That’s because I do,” he murmured just before covering her mouth with his own.
She reached between them, and ran a hand down his chest, popping the buttons off his shirt as she went.
“Fuck, I want you,” he said and picked her up.
“Now,” she added and loosened the towel covering her.
He tossed her to the bed, and discarded his clothes before she could blink. “I’ve wanted you since I saw you.”
Smiling at him, she reached between her legs and stroked herself. She slid a finger inside her folds then pulled it out and licked her juices from it.
“Fuck,” he moaned, and licked his lips.
“What are you waiting for?” She asked, sliding her hand down her stomach to disappear into her folds again.
“Not a damn thing,” he answered as he grabbed her ankles and pulled her to the edge of the bed.
Dropping to his knees, he raised her legs and settled them over his shoulders before he leaned close and licked her from asshole to clit, and back again.
“Delicious,” he muttered, then stroked her with his tongue.
He circled her clit with the tip, then slid down to slide it inside her. Repeating the motion several times, before he pulled back and blew across her clit.
Her cries filled the room as he dove in again. Alternating between licking and sucking her clit, he slid two fingers inside her and started stroking.
Her cries surrounded him as she came hard, his name echoing around the room.
Not giving her any time to recover, he gripped her thighs and rose to his feet.
He lifted her legs and placed her heels on his shoulders before sliding deep.
“Oh God,” she yelled as he leaned forward a little, driving as deeply as possible.
“Say my name,” he commanded and slammed into her.
“Fuck,” she cried out as her nails dug into his forearms.
“Say my name,” he commanded again, pulling out then slamming back in, harder this time.
“Oh, God, Harrison,” she yelled as he slammed in again.
“Fuck,” he cried out, shifting his hands to grab her ass and lift her hips off the bed.
Her legs slid down and hooked over his elbows as he pumped his hips harder.
“Oh, God,” she cried again as another orgasm ripped its way through her. “Harrison, Oh, God!”
“That’s it,” he urged and dropped her ass back to the bed. Keeping her legs looped around his elbows, he leaned forward and drove into her as his lips wrapped around her nipple.
“Oh, God! Oh, Fuck! Harrison!” Her cries gaining volume as the waves of another orgasm crashed into both of them.
Her pulsating pussy tried pushing him out, and he drove deeper, searching for his own release.
As another orgasm built, she dug her nails into his forearms again, breaking the skin and pulling him over the edge with her. Their names mingled as he emptied inside her.
After pulling out, he dropped to his knees again and inhaled their intertwined scents, before lapping their seeping juices from inside her.
Rising to his feet, and pulling her against him, he kissed her deeply, sharing the flavor of their mating with her.
“Fuck,” she said once he broke the kiss.
“You okay?” he asked, laying her back and resting his head on her stomach.
“Mmhmm,” she replied and ran her fingers through his hair. “You won.”
“Oh, no, baby. We both won,” he replied and chuckled.
His warm breath across her stomach made her shiver as her pussy throbbed again.
“My turn,” she said and pulled him to his feet.
“Your turn?” He asked, the gleam in his eye letting her know he knew exactly what she was talking about.
“Oh yes,” she replied and moved him, so he was sitting on the bed.
Licking her lips, she dropped to her knees and slid her mouth over his head. He groaned and fell back on his elbows as she slid him down her throat and back out again, swirling her tongue around his crown, before sliding him back down her throat.
As she repeated this, he raised up and tangled his hands into her hair.
“Fuck, Nevaeh,” he hissed through clenched teeth as she grabbed his balls and started gently tugging on them.
“Mmm,” she moaned, letting the vibrations from her throat surround him.
“God damn, woman,” he said and pulled h
er off him.
“Oh no,” she told him and straddled him.
She seated herself on him and started moving her hips slowly, letting him feel her pulsing around him.
“Fuck,” he said again, and gripped her hips.
As she rode, she leaned forward and kissed him hard, still tasting the two of them mingled in his mouth.
Increasing her pace, she broke the kiss and tossed her head back, exposing her neck and it was all he could do not to sink his fangs into the vein pulsating in her throat and drink his fill.
Picking her up, he flipped them around and drove into her, hard and fast, spurring them both over the edge once again.

“It’s about time,” Crompton said when his informant finally called.
“I’m sorry, sir. I was working on a cleanup.”
“What did you screw up now?” He asked, annoyance ringing in his voice.
“My vampire failed to eliminate Nevaeh and Harrison,” the informant confessed, and Crompton hissed.
“You truly are an idiot,” he said and sighed. “I will be coming back to the area sometime in the next week or so. Make sure they stay on this wild goose chase.”
“Yes, sir, but there is something else.”
“What?” Crompton nearly growled into the phone.
“One of the females, Lori, is missing,” the informant said and gulped audibly when Crompton growled. “She knows who I am.”
“Then you best find her before they do. I have heard Karma is an expert interrogator.”
“I will, sir,” the informant promised.
“You’d better, or I swear to you, you will not like the consequences.”
“I will not fail you again.”
“See that you don’t,” he said and ended the call.
He shook his head, rose to his feet, and walked around the small house he was staying in since leaving Baltimore. His next shipment was scheduled for later that week, and he would kill someone if this one was intercepted. He paid well to keep his business going, and if those he paid couldn’t do the job any longer, he would have to replace them.
He smiled as a thought came to him, and he picked his phone up from the table.
“Hello,” the sultry voice on the other line answered.
“Hello, darling,” he greeted the one he knew he could always count on.
“What’s the matter, love?” She asked, hearing the stress in his voice.
“I need you to keep a close eye on Nevaeh and Karma. There has been some trouble, and I do not want any more issues with my shipments.”
“Karma and Nevaeh are making it difficult to keep an eye on them. They aren’t staying together like they usually do. Nevaeh is always with Harrison and Karma with Dylan,” she told him.
“Then keep an eye on Nevaeh. She’s the real target in this, but that young Halfling and her mate could muddle things for us,” he said, lying smoothly, and sighed. “I will call you when I figure some things out. For now, though, keep an eye on Nevaeh, and watch Karma when you can.”
“I will,” she replied and ended the call.
“Fucking Huntresses,” he said, snarling. “Always coming around to fuck up my plans.”
“Master,” Analia said quietly from behind him. “I have your dinner ready.”
“Did you get me exactly what I asked for?” He asked, not turning around to look at her as memories of what they did a couple nights ago filled his mind.
“Yes, sir,” she answered as she pulled a young human into the room.
“Bring her here and let me see her,” he ordered, and Analia pulled the girl across the room.
“Here you go, sir,” she said and pushed the blonde in front of him.
“You did well,” he praised after a thorough appraisal of the girl. “You may go, Analia.”
“Yes, sir,” she replied and left the room.
“What is your name?” He asked, gently gripping her arm.
“Brittany,” she answered, almost silently.
“Beautiful,” he said and pressed his nose against her neck. “You smell delicious.”
She shivered as he ran his nose up and down her neck, and her heart beat increased.
“Absolutely delicious,” he said as he steered her to his bed. “We are going to have some fun.”
She nodded, too unsure about what was going on to do anything else.
“Lay down,” he ordered and when she didn’t immediately obey, he picked her up and laid her on the bed.
“What are you going to do?” She asked, fear in her words.
“Shh,” he said and laid beside her. “If you struggle, this will hurt.”
Without another word, he ripped her clothes from her and removed his own before burying his cock in her pussy and his fangs in her neck.
Pumping his hips and filling his mouth with her blood released some of the anger he was feeling toward his informant.
Feeling her life drain, he pounded harder, exploding inside her as the last of her blood passed his tongue.
As he cleaned himself up, he looked at her lifeless body and shuddered. She was tasty, but the lust within him was left unsated. The one he wanted, the blood he wanted coursing through his veins, was still beyond his reach. When he had her, though, he would be the strongest vampire ever created. Once he had her, nothing and no one would be able to stop him.
“I will have you soon, but I have one little problem to take care of first,” he said out loud to himself. “Once Nevaeh is dead, I will have a clear road to the one I want.”
Chapter Seventeen
“Nevaeh, do you have a moment?” Tonya asked as she approached her leader.
“Sure,” Nevaeh responded. “What do you need?”
“I have a problem taking orders from Dylan,” the younger woman said. “I don’t have issues with Karma, other than she’s a Halfling trying to be one of us, but Dylan is not only a Halfling, but he’s also a male, and we have never accepted men into the Huntresses.”
“That isn’t true. When I first joined, we had a male leader,” Nevaeh said, and Tonya looked at her in shock.
“But, that’s not in the books anywhere,” she countered.
“Yes, it is. His name was Carmon, and he was a great leader. He was killed just a few months after I joined, and his wife took over leadership. I was appointed leader when she died nine years later.”
“Oh,” Tonya said and shook her head. “He still isn’t one of us.”
“He’s as much one of us as Karma is. You will show them both the same respect you show Gina and I, or you will be on the first plane to California.”
“Whatever you say,” Tonya replied and walked off.
Nevaeh watched her go, and knew something was going to unravel soon, she just wasn’t sure what or when.
Shaking her head, she turned just as Harrison approached, “What’s going on?”
“Karma and Dylan are meeting us at the van. We got a hit.”
****
“What’s going on?” Karma asked as they loaded into the van.
“One of the ships from the list we retrieved from the warehouse just made port at Salem Harbor in New Jersey,” Harrison said and grinned.
“Has it been searched yet?” Dylan asked as they pulled out of the hotel parking lot.
“No, but Customs is holding it until we can get there,” Nevaeh said and frowned. “We’re being followed.”
“So I see,” Harrison said and grinned. “Who do you think it is?”
“Fuller,” Karma answered and looked over her shoulder at the black SUV following them. “When we were leaving, I saw him in the parking lot. I’m sure he’s wondering where the four of us are going.”
“Well, let’s tell him, shall we?” Harrison asked and pulled into the parking lot of a popular restaurant chain.
Fuller pulled in behind them and got out of the SUV, slamming the door behind him.
“Where are you going?” He asked, practically yelling.
“Karma a
nd I wanted pancakes, and Nevaeh and Harrison decided to join us,” Dylan said and looked pointedly at the restaurant. “You are more than welcome to join us, too.”
“Bull shit,” he said and looked at Karma. “You pulled out of the parking lot too damn fast for pancakes.”
“I’m hungry,” Karma told him and shrugged. “Plus, where there’s pancakes, there’s bacon.”
“Bacon my ass,” Fuller said, and frowned.
“No, bacon comes from pigs, not jackasses,” Nevaeh countered, and grinned at Fuller’s scowl.
“Fine, go enjoy your pancakes, but know that I’m watching you four very closely,” he warned and walked back to his SUV. “When you’re finished eating, we need to have a meeting about where we’re going from here.”
“We will call you when we’re back at the hotel,” Karma told him and smiled sweetly. “It could be a bit though. I need to find a place to get the wood to craft more weapons.”
“Fine, whatever, just call when you’re back,” he told her and climbed into the SUV.
Once he was gone, Karma grinned and walked into the restaurant.
“What is she doing?” Harrison asked, and Nevaeh laughed.
“If I had to guess, she’s getting pancakes and bacon,” she answered, laughing harder.
“Don’t take my girl to a place with bacon, and not expect her to eat,” Dylan told him and shrugged.
“Christsakes,” Harrison muttered and climbed back into the van to wait.
Five minutes later, Karma walked out with a bag of food and a smile on her face.
“Pancakes and bacon for everyone, except you, Harrison. I got you some bacon breakfast burritos. Easier to eat while driving,” she said as she climbed into the van. “What are we waiting for? We have a ship to check out.”
“Karma, if I didn’t like you, I’d stake you right now,” Harrison said with a chuckle as he backed out of the parking space.
“You’re the one who chose this restaurant to use as a coverup,” she retorted and rolled her eyes.
“And I missed breakfast,” she added with a sly smile at Dylan.
“TMI, Karma,” Harrison said and chuckled. “And that could be considered breakfast.”
“Karma is definitely more delicious than any food I’ve ever had,” Dylan commented, and Karma squirmed.
