hunters that we already know and love. Preorder TODAY and be one of the first

Storm wanted to appear nonchalant, but
couldn’t help sneaking a glance at Ram when he said, “I’ll bet Elora would like
to sashay by there tonight. We know she has a thing for talking vampire.”
Ram caught the mischievous gleam in
Storm’s eye and knew Storm was teasing, but it was also a dig that didn’t go
down easy. After three children and years of married life, the way Baka and
Elora had interacted, back in the day, still bothered Ram. And Storm knew it.
Rammel carefully set his whiskey
tumbler down on the table beside him before launching himself out of his chair
so fast it looked like he’d been sitting on an eject mechanism. He flew across
the space that separated them and attempted to get Storm in a headlock.
“What are you doing?!?” Storm wheezed,
turning red and trying to get his breath while Ram’s forearm cut off his
windpipe. “It was a joke!”
Ram didn’t respond to that protest
because he didn’t care if it was a joke. He jerked Storm out of the chair by
his neck, which was a testament to Ram’s strength because Storm was still a big
well-muscled guy. As soon as they fell to the floor together, Ram hauled back
and launched a fist that caught Storm in the side. Storm reacted by rolling
over so that he could get enough room to clip Ram on the side of the face. Kay,
of course, was yelling and doing his best to break it up, but in the process
took punishing hits from both of them.
Several of the other knights came to
assist Kay and fifteen minutes later, the three veteran members of B Team were
standing in the Sovereign’s office, being called on the carpet like they were
kids.
“The. Hel.” said Glen, clearly
furious. “Every trainee in Jefferson Unit has already heard that B Team were
brawling in our own club lounge, rolling around on the floor like… like…”
“Brawlers?” Kay suggested.
“Famous legendary elite vampire
hunters indeed.” The sarcasm was dripping from every word Glen uttered. “A fine
example you set for the next generation tonight.”
“He started it,” Storm mumbled.
“You did not say what I think you just
said,” Glen looked incredulous. “Is this some kind of midlife crisis?”
That hit a mark. All three men looked
horrified. “We’re no’ yet even thirty five,” Ram protested.
“You’re acting like you’re not yet
five.”
Ram glared at Storm. “There are just
some things you do no’ say about an elf’s mate.”
Glen pulled back and studied Ram for a
minute. “I don’t believe there is any power in heaven or hel that could make me
believe Engel Storm insulted Elora Laiken.”
“Well,” Ram hedged, “he did no’ insult
her per se.”
“Per se,” Glen repeated.
“Aye. Per se.”
Glen threw up his hands. “You know, I
don’t really care what happened. If you were Z Team, I’d just roll my eyes and
say, ‘What else is new?’ The three of you are going to be guest speakers at one
ethics and decorum class per grade during this term.”
“Oh, for…” Kay started.
“Not. Another. Word.” Glen walked over
and opened the door to his office. “Get out. And shame on you.”
Standing in the outer offices, Kay
looked at the door that had been shut in his face and said, “I didn’t do
anything! In fact I tried to stop it.”
Ram and Storm started walking down the
hall toward the elevator. Storm turned to Ram and said, “Look what you did
now.”
“You want me to? Pull your shirt up so
I can see.”
“There’s nothing to see. You on the
other hand are going to need some ice soon if you don’t want that eye to swell
shut.”
Ram reached up and touched it. “You
got me good,” he smiled.
Storm’s face split into a proud smile.
“You’re gonna be wearing my mark for a while. Elora’s gonna chew your royal
rear end when she hears about this.”
By that time Kay had caught up. From
behind them he said, “Maybe you two are having a midlife crisis.”

Author Info
New York Times bestselling author of thirteen
romances. Victoria's Knights of Black Swan series won BEST PARANORMAL ROMANCE
SERIES THREE YEARS IN A ROW. Reviewers Choice Awards, The Paranormal Romance
Guild.
Co-host of the ROMANCE BETWEEN THE PAGES
podcast.
Her paranormal romances come with uniquely
fresh perspectives on "imaginary" creatures, characters, and themes.
She adds a dash of scifi, a flourish of fantasy, enough humor to make you laugh
out loud, and, occasionally, enough steam to make you squirm in your chair. Her
heroines are independent femmes with flaws and minds of their own whether they
are aliens, witches, demonologists, werewolves, hybrids, psychics, or past life
therapists. Her heroes are hot and hunky, but they also have brains, character,
and good manners... usually.
The rich characterizations come from being a
lifelong student of behavior, casually, and a serious student of behavior
academically. She also studied comparative religion, myths, and Dark Ages
history.
Victoria lives in The Woodlands, Texas with
her husband and a very smart, mostly black German Shepherd dog.
