Bite of Darkness

Ashly Marrouch is given an important task: deliver a box with a secret, lifesaving antidote to the alpha of Shadow Creek. For Ashly, this is another night's work for the vampire king he serves. What should have been a simple drop-and-go is anything but when Vuk Remmington opens the door and Ashly finds himself face-to-face with his imposing, frighteningly handsome werewolf mate. Vuk is one of Shadow Creek's fiercest guards and his alpha's second-in-command. Naturally, he is suspicious of Ashly and the antidote he delivers. Fighting his hunger for the small, gorgeous, witty vampire proves impossible, and Vuk finds himself desperate to repair the damages his initial attitude had caused between them. When Vuk and Ashly are ambushed by human hunters, one thing becomes clear: Vuk can't live without Ashly, and Ashly will sacrifice himself to save his wolf. Vuk demands to know the origins of the antidote. But the antidote is the least of Vuk's worries when Ashly becomes the prime target for the hunters.
