As he laid them on the bed, spooning and cuddling, she spoke softly in a blissed-out voice. “Once you go wolf, you will never want to go back. I love my werewolf.”
He chuckled and kissed her head. Faith pulled his hand up to her mouth and kissed it. “I love you, Kane.”
He pulled her closer and sucked on her neck. “You feel so good, my princess. I’m going to take you slowly this time…kissing, licking, sucking, and savoring every inch, finding all the special places on your body. By the end of tonight I will know every inch of you by heart.”
She sighed out her pleasure as he did just that.

The damn alarm went off, although it felt like they’d only fallen asleep minutes earlier. She groaned, snuggling closer to Kane. “I love you, Kane. Don’t forget I start work today. I finish tonight at 7:30, but I won’t get home ’til about 8:20, so there’s no need for you to rush home. I know you’re a workaholic. From what I was told you usually didn’t get home until around 10:30 at night, and then you would go out patrolling for two to three hours.”
He chuckled. “Seems like I’m not the only one who listens to information about the other.”
Faith smiled and pushed him out of bed. “Go to work.”
He chuckled again.
Faith had a slow morning before she went to work. She spent time with Bengie, relaxed, and after lunch she left for work.
It felt fantastic to be home in Australia, working, coming home to Kane and Bengie. Faith had two wonderful vision free days where she got to sleep in, go to the beach, and she even did some shopping. On the third day, about an hour and a half before she finished work, her peaceful days came to an end. She almost missed catching the vision to hold it, because she was busy helping a group of girls with their artwork. She excused herself to go to the bathroom so she could gather herself, and she stared at her reflection in the mirror, concentrating. This was the first vision she’d had to hold off since getting her extra power. Faith cursed her mother for the gift. She could feel how powerful the vision was going to be. All Faith’s senses were on alert. She rinsed her face and walked back out.
At 7:38 PM, Faith was walking out the door to go home. She thanked her coworker for staying back to help her pack up and lock everything up, then hurried to her car and broke all the speed limits getting to the house. Pulling into the driveway, she honked the horn, which didn’t help her migraine. She waited for Kane to come out, but Jamie strolled out instead. She saw him smile her way, then he frowned and started running when he saw her face.
She finally let the vision come.
Faith was in the city in back of a place similar to Splash, except more like a bar. She looked around the back alley and saw two large doors, one a fire exit. Across from her were cars, bins, and the doors of another establishment. She knew it was late, around 11:30 PM to 12ish.
Five women dressed in black uniforms came out laughing.
“I can’t believe you put up with that grabbing, Lexie. I would have poured his drink over him. The arsehole, just because he’s the owner’s brother doesn’t excuse it.”
The one called Lexie laughed. “I know, but he’s so cute.”
All the girls laughed harder. A small, blonde, pixie-like woman spoke up this time. “My God, he’s only eighteen now, just think what he’ll be like in his eighties. He’ll definitely give the phrase ‘dirty old man’ a new meaning.”
They laughed harder, then the one called Lexie and a tall, black-haired woman with green eyes turned pale. They looked at each other then said together, “We need to leave now. Come on, quick, to our cars.”
They grabbed the three other women and started running down the alley, where Faith saw a small parking area of about fifteen to twenty cars. The three women asked Lexie and Stacy to stop scaring them, but the women ignored their companions. They didn’t make it halfway before they were surrounded by three huge demons and about fifteen minions.
One of the demons stepped forward. “We only want you two.” He pointed to Lexie and Stacy then turned to the minions. “You may kill and feed on the others.”
They attacked as the girls screamed.
Faith came out of the vision with a splitting migraine, a sense of direction, and a rough estimate of how long they had. She yelled, not realizing she was in Jaime’s arms on the lounge.
“Call your father, Jamie. We have to go ASAP. Please, call now. I don’t have time to explain everything twice. Tell him we’ll need back-up.”
Five minutes later Jack, Rane, Blake, Devlin, and a human major named Samuel Black arrived. Faith stared at the major then turned to Rane.
