He’d been created for one purpose—death. He was not there to
comfort or to enlighten.
Keenan’s only job was to bring death to those unlucky enough to know
his touch.
And on the cold, windy New Orleans night, his latest victim was in
sight. He watched her from his perch high atop the St. Louis Cathedral.
Mortal eyes wouldn’t find him. Only those preparing to leave the earthly
realm could ever glimpse his face so he didn’t worry about shocking those
few humans who straggled through the nearby square.
No, he worried about nothing. No one. He never had. He simply
touched and he killed and he waited for his next victim.
The woman he watched tonight was small, with long, black hair, and
skin a pale cream. The wind whipped her hair back, jerking it away from
her face as she hurried down the stone steps of the cathedral. The doors had
been locked. She hadn’t made it inside. No chance to pray.
Pity.
He slipped to the side of the cathedral, still watching her as she edged
down the narrow alleyway. Pirate’s Alley. He’d taken others from this place
before. The path seemed to scream with the memories of the past.
“No!”
That wasn’t the past screaming. His body stiffened. His wings beat at
the air around him. It was her.
Nicole St. James. Schoolteacher. Age twenty-nine. A woman who
tutored children on the weekends. A woman who’d tried to live her life just

A woman who was dying tonight.
His eyes narrowed as he leapt from his perch. Time to go in closer.
Nicole’s attacker had her against the wall. One of the man’s hands was
over her mouth, the better to make sure she didn’t scream again. His other
hand slammed against the front of her chest and held her pinned against the
cold stone wall.
She was fighting harder than Keenan had really expected. Struggling.
Kicking.
Her attacker just laughed.
And Keenan watched—as he’d always watched. So many years…
Tears streamed down Nicole’s cheeks.
The man holding her leaned in and licked them away.
Keenan’s gut clenched. Knowing that her time was at hand, he’d
watched Nicole for a few weeks now. He’d slipped into her classroom and
listened to the soft and soothing sound of her voice. He’d watched as her
lips curled into a smile and a dimple winked in her right cheek.
He’d seen laughter in her eyes. Seen longing. Seen…life.
Now her green eyes were filled with the stark, wild terror that only the
helpless could truly know.
He didn’t like that look in her eyes. His hands clenched.
Don’t look if you don’t like it. His gaze pulled away from her face. The
job wasn’t about what he liked. It never had been.
There’d never been a choice.
They have the choices. I only have orders to follow.
That was the way it had always been. So why did it bother him now?
Because it
