had made their succession as the dominant life force on the planet a little easier.

"Where's my brother?"

Nabium grew quiet.

Kessar let out a sound of disgust at his younger brother and his libido. He had never learned a

sense of timing. "Tell him to get off whatever female he's found and come here. Now."

"I-I can't, my lord."

"Why not?"

Nabium took a step away from him before he gulped again, and then spoke. "They killed him."

Kessar couldn't breathe as that news registered. It couldn't be. "What?"

"He died fighting them, my lord. I am so sorry."

Kessar felt his fangs come out as rage filled him. He wanted blood for this.

As he walked toward the closet, Nabium practically bolted in fear. Not that Kessar would ever

hurt his second in command. No, Kessar needed someone weak to torture.

Opening the closet, he pulled the college student out he'd captured earlier after they'd left Sin's

casino. She was short, with long mousy brown hair and beady blue eyes that were rimmed with small,

round glasses. Her mouth was taped so that she couldn't scream, and her hands and feet were tied. She

was dressed in a pair of faded jeans, black boots, and a black Boondock Saints T-shirt that showed off

her beefy upper arms.

But what he found fascinating, and the main reason he'd captured her, was that she had a small

bow and arrow tattoo on her wrist. Before he'd taken her, she'd told him the bow and arrow was to

protect her from nightmares. Strange, really, since it was also the mark of Artemis and as such made the

student a prime target for them.

Using his powers, he muffled the room so that no one in the hotel could hear her scream. Then he

ripped the tape from her mouth.

She cried out. He shoved her into Nabium's arms. "Hold her still."

"P-p-please," she begged as her gaze fell to the body of the other woman. "I'm pregnant."

"Like we care?" Kessar felt his face shifting over to that of his real demon form.

She screamed even louder, exciting him even more.

Kessar picked her up and latched onto her neck, tearing through the flesh so that her blood would

fill his mouth. As soon as she stopped fighting, Nabium joined him by tearing into the other side.

When she was dead and drained, they threw her to the ground. Kessar frowned as he saw a small

leather bracelet on her right arm. Jerking it off, he read her name.

Scoffing, he tossed it on top of her body and wiped his mouth.

His good humor restored, he pulled his shirt off over his head and tossed it over her body before

he manifested another one.

Nabium duplicated the gesture before he returned to their previous topic. "At least the good news

is we have negated Zakar. He will be worthless to them now."

Possibly, but Kessar wasn't the kind of demon who counted on things going as planned. "Never

underestimate Nana. He travels with an Atlantean."

"Are you sure?"

"Of course. How else would he be able to destroy my brother?" Kessar's grief was gone now. The

kill had placated him. If his brother was stupid enough to die at the hands of them, then he deserved it.
