Hunter and Alex. Now they must each play their part in the revenge against the
one man who ruined it all.

AVENGE ME

KATY
let out a long breath and started walking
back down the empty corridor, back to the party.
Back
toward Jason Treffen.
Talking
to him had just about made her lose her mind. It had taken everything in her
not to grab his glass from his hand and pour it over his head. Then break the
glass on his face. She considered the man as good as her sister’s murderer, so she
was short on charitable feelings where he was concerned.
The
door to the ballroom opened, and she froze.
Oh. Her breath left her in a rush, a current of
electricity washing over her skin.
It
was him.
The
man whose eyes were like an endless black hole, drawing her in, a force she
couldn’t deny or control. When he had looked at her, she’d felt as if she were
grounded to the spot. She’d felt like he had looked and seen her. Seen everything. More than that, she’d
looked back and she’d seen him.
Had
seen a grief in him. An anger.
It
had been, in some ways, like looking into a mirror.
“It’s
you,” he said, his voice deep, smooth. Like really good chocolate. “I was
hoping to run into you.”
“Wh-why
were you hoping to run into me?” she asked.
“Because
you’re the most beautiful woman here. Why wouldn’t I
want to see you?”
“You’re
a flirt.”
“That’s
the thing, I’m not really.” He put his hands in his pockets, a wicked half
smile curling that sinful mouth.
“I
have to get back.”
She
started to walk past him and he took her arm, stopped her progress. She looked
up and met
cold, dark eyes.
“To
who?” he asked, his voice gentle, an opposing force to the hold he had on her.
There
was something about that grip. Commanding. It spoke to every secret fantasy
that lived in the dark shadows inside her. The parts of herself that had looked
at every man she’d even tried to date and found them lacking. But not him. He
wouldn’t be lacking. Something shivered inside her, a whisper.
He would know what you wanted.
