The bitch was sorely trying his patience.

Wilhelm Roth fisted his hand and drove it through the clouded window of the Boston warehouse he’d been forced to relocate to recently. Pain ripped through him as he brought his hand out of the shattered glass, the flesh over his knuckles shredded and bloodied. He knew Claire would feel it, too, if distantly, just as he was feeling the proof of her current infidelity with Andreas Reichen.

Her pleasure made acid boil in his gut.

That it was pleasure shared with Reichen made him want to kill them both.

Savagely.

He’d been more than a little surprised to detect Claire’s presence near Boston earlier tonight. The awareness of her had since faded, but he was certain she was in New England somewhere. She and Reichen both, apparently

The only thing keeping him from hunting the pair down was the fact that his hands were full with the current mission for Dragos in the city. His priorities had been made crystal clear by Dragos when he’d exiled him to Boston, and Roth wasn’t about to let him down.

He would have his chance to make Claire and her damnable lover pay. He was certain he’d have ample opportunity to inflict great pain on both of them soon enough.

And he could hardly wait.

He’d been chewing on the fact that Dragos had intimated that Reichen was involved with the Order. It wouldn’t be surprising if it were true. Despite the male’s arrogance and insubordination, there had long been an air of self-righteousness about him.

Roth supposed the male had subscribed to a certain code of honor, even then, in the past, when he had come sniffing around Claire’s skirts after Roth had already decided she would belong to him alone. Never mind that he already had a mate; he and Ilsa had been a poor match, one he’d made hastily in a moment of passion and grown bored of not long afterward. He should have gotten rid of her sooner than he had, but then Claire came along and gave him all the excuse he needed.

Or, rather, Andreas Reichen had provided the excuse, just a short time before either man had even met the beautiful Claire Samuels.

Roth had often wondered if Reichen realized the seething contempt he’d inspired when he’d shown weak little Ilsa a gesture of kindness at a Darkhaven reception. It had been a small thing, really, a dry jacket to cover her after Roth had sent her weeping to a rain-drenched balcony when she dared to contradict him in front of his peers. He’d meant to punish her privately, but Reichen had strolled by and discovered her sitting outside by herself in the cold. Incredibly, he’d had the gall to insist she take his coat and then arranged for his driver to send her home without Roth’s permission.

Roth fumed even now just to think on it.

He’d fumed then, too, and waited for a chance to put Reichen firmly in his place. He found that chance once Claire arrived in Hamburg and caught the eye of nearly every available Breed male in the region.
