The SUV plowed into him once more.
The BMW lost the fight.
The car tumbled off the road, rolled, again, again. Glass shattered. The air bag exploded before him, a white cloud that surrounded him.
The radio died.
Metal crunched. Twisted. The top of the car thudded into the earth.
Oh, God, Tommy?—
Sorry, son.

Too easy. He smiled as he watched the blue car fly into the tree. Steam exploded from the hood.
Humans were so weak. Hardly worth his time.
But if the bastard had survived the crash, maybe he could have a bit of fun with the lawyer. Maybe a lot of fun.
Smiling, he started down the ravine.
Headlights flashed in the distance.
Dammit.
The roar of the approaching truck’s engine reached his ears. One of those big, souped-up trucks that the hicks in this area seemed to love.
His jaw clenched. This kill wasn’t over.
But the truck was coming closer, and he was in the open. He cast one more glance down at the twisted metal. Odds were good that the asshole was dead. And if he wasn’t, there was always next time.
Next time.
He turned from the ravine and hurried back to his idling SUV. If he got his ride out of there, the other driver probably wouldn’t even notice the wreck.
Humans were like that. So self-involved. Never seeing the danger and death until it was too late. Fools.
He jumped into the vehicle. The night was still young. If he hurried, he might even be able to catch his lady.
Another hunt—this one, the most important of them all.

The patter quickened as the rain strengthened, falling harder,harder.
She squeezed her eyes shut. But saw Jude. The shifter had played the gentleman. He’d walked her through the new security system. Done a top to bottom search of her house.
They’d eaten together. Hell, he’d even cooked. Then he’d walked her to her bedroom door.
And left her. Without even one touch.
Should have been what she wanted.
But, no,hewas what she wanted. She wanted him so much that she was aching. The need was like that for her. Had been, since she was sixteen. When she wanted someone, shewanted.Craved. Needed so badly that her body throbbed.
