Angel of Darkness
(The Fallen #1)
As an angel of death, Keenan’s job is to collect the souls on his list. He’s carried out his duty for two thousand years and never faltered once. Until he meets Nicole St. James. When the moment of death comes, Keenan hesitates, and instead of taking Nicole, Keenan touches the vampire who’s attacking her.
Cast out of heaven for disobedience, Keenan plummets to earth. Six months later, he finally manages to track Nicole to a bar in Mexico. He’s stunned to discover that the woman he remembers has undergone a dramatic change—she’s become a vampire. And when he realizes that she’s the target of all manner of enemies—other vampires, demons, even shifters—he’ll do whatever it takes to protect her, even if all hell breaks loose

Nicole wrenched her head away from him. She was breathing hard, her breath rasping. “What the hell was that?”
Keenan blinked, then let his eyes narrow. His cheeks seemed to burn as he stared down at her. “I bled for you. I thought a kiss was the least I deserved as payment.”
She jerked from his hold but only because he let her go. “You thought wrong.”
“Didn’t you kiss your other prey?” And that had the rage stirring again. So many emotions churned inside him now. Sometimes it seemed as if they’d rip him apart. “Weren’t you rubbing against them, promising sex, when you—”
“I wasn’t going to sleep with them!” Her hands flew up into the air, and he saw the small, deadly claws on the ends of her fingers. “I didn’t want to scare them, so I was…” She broke off and shook her head. “Never mind. I don’t have to explain myself to you.”
“You were seducing them.” The words fell between them. He lifted a brow. “You think seducing the blood away is any better than holding down your prey and just taking what you want?”
She flinched. “Maybe I don’t have a choice.” Nicole spun around and gave him one truly glorious view of her butt as she stormed away.
But she wasn’t really going anywhere. They weren’t done.
“Why didn’t you try seducing me?” Probably not what he should have asked then, but…did she not find him appealing at all?
Perhaps the kiss had been wrong. He, too, could try seduction instead of force. If it worked for her…
“There’s no point in seducing hunters.” She threw this over her shoulder. “You’d screw me, then still kill me.”
Maybe. But… “If you walk away from me now, you will die.”
Those words stopped her. She glanced back. “That’s a threat, huh? What are you gonna do? Jump me? I’m not so easy to take down.”
She would be.
“I’m not the threat right now.” Keenan went closer because her scent drew him in. Lush woman. But, also, something else. Soft. Light. A wisp of…vanilla?
“You look like a threat to me,” she said, turning slowly to face him.
He was a threat. “In about five minutes, more of Romeo’s friends will be here. I told them to stay away.” Keenan tilted his head and his nostrils flared. “But I don’t guess they listened.”
She licked her lips, a fast flash of pink tongue. “Romeo? Who’s that?”
His jaw tightened. “The first idiot you had ready to donate blood tonight.” Keenan guessed he counted as idiot number three. “I took down him and his men, but I didn’t kill them.” He hadn’t touched any of them with his hands because he’d been afraid that one touch would shove them all straight to hell.
But that particular power was gone. A very, very good thing.
“You walk away,” he continued, “and they’ll have you long before you can make it to that broken down Chevy.”
What is next?
