But the more we talked about it, the surer she said she was of her decision: to move to the manor, to become a hunter with me, and to finish her college degree whenever she could, no rush.
Her mother hadn’t been too happy about it. To be honest, she had yelled and cried about Tessa moving in with me and becoming a hunter, but Tessa was adamant, even more than when talking with me, and Regina relented. As long as Tessa sent her many texts throughout the day to let her know her daughter was okay.
She squeezed my hand back, and I smiled at the beautiful girl beside me. My girl.
Then, we were under the huge willow tree.
Like she had done before, Tessa disentangled her hand from mine and placed it flat against the tree’s trunk. She closed her eyes and took in a deep breath. If I didn’t know better, I would think Tessa was a witch and was sensing the tree’s magic.
“Are you ready?” I asked.
She opened her eyes and peeked at me. “For what?”
“For the bonding ritual tonight. For becoming a hunter. For being in this, in my life, for real.”
Letting go of the tree, Tessa wrapped her arms around my neck, stood on her tiptoes, and brushed her soft lips against mine. “There is nothing I want more.”
That was all I wanted to hear. Grinning like a fool, I wound my arms around her waist and pulled her closer to me. “We’ll be unstoppable together.”
She smiled at me. “Together.”
Then, I kissed her.

Meet Eva And Nikolas
Triton’s Curse by Sarra Cannon

Sometimes freedom comes at a cost…
As the last in a line of powerful witches, Eva McKay has been held captive for years by a greedy demon who treated her more like a possession than a human being. Three days ago, she escaped. Sure that he’s out searching for her, Eva runs as far and as fast as she can. That is, until exhaustion catches up with her and she crashes her car in the mysterious town of Willow Harbor.
Once a mighty triton, Nikolas Kosta is now a slave. Ten years ago, he trusted the wrong person and ended up shackled, cursed to live in human form, and became the prisoner of a manipulative siren named Selena. Nik resigned himself to his misery long ago, but when the beautiful and secretive Eva crashes near the docks where he works, she awakens something inside him he'd thought was lost.
Both desperate for freedom and a life on their own terms, Nik and Eva are reluctant to open their hearts to anyone. But when Eva's captor tracks her down down and Nik's boss demands far more than he's willing to pay, will they have the courage to trust each other? Or will their freedom be taken from them forever?
