He twisted away, but her hands were still there. Burning him.
Whispering across his chest like wind over water. He shivered. He sweat.
He gasped for air but inhaled only her scent. He reached for sanity and
found his fingers entangled in short, satiny hair. He opened his eyes and
found them captured by hers. Huge, dark, innocent. Imploring, hot, sexy
eyes, staring down at him as he lay trembling with desire on his bed. And
he knew he was lost. He lifted his arms, slid them around her small body to
pull her down to his chest. Parted his lips to taste her succulent mouth…
And there was nothing there. He lay panting and alone, his torso and
face coated in a slick sheen, his arms wrapped around themselves. He sat up
fast, blinking in the gathering dusk, grabbing the first thing his fist closed
on and hurling it into the opposite wall. Both hands pushed through his hair.
Dammit, he was still shaking, still hotter than hell for some fantasy woman;
a dreamworld pixie who looked more like Peter Pan’s Tinkerbell than a
swimsuit-issue cover girl. What the hell was the matter with him?
“Pressure.” He muttered the word to himself and slid naked from the bed
for his ritual cold shower. The dreams had been coming for months on a
regular basis. “Stress,” he added, stomping into the hotel bathroom, flicking
the light, twisting the knobs.
It was the job. Hell, it would get to anyone. He’d failed his last mission,
damned near got himself killed while he was at it.
His latest assignment had been handed down eight months ago and he
still hadn’t had any success. So many close calls, so many near misses.
Every time he thought he had her, she pulled some trick out of her sleeve
and slipped right through his fingers. And almost didn’t cut the mustard
with DPI. An agent for the CIA’s secretive Division of Paranormal
Investigations had to deliver the goods. He was closer than he’d ever been
to doing just that. She was here, in this small, middle-of-nowhere town in
northern Maine.
Stephen “Ramsey” Bachman was a hunter of sorts, but his quarry wasn’t
human. She was a vampire.
It was her house and she had finally come home to roost. The place was
like something out of an old Vincent Price movie. Big and gothic and sadly
in need of a coat of paint. The front door was unlocked. It was just before
dusk.
Finally, he had her cornered, right in her own backyard. She’d been on
DPI’s Most Wanted List for more than a decade. He didn’t know why. It
wasn’t his business to know why, just to bring her in. And he had a feeling
he was about to do it.
He gripped a small leather satchel in his right hand. Inside were three
syringes, each containing a dose of tranquilizer developed by legendary DPI
researcher Curtis Rogers. His original formula had been lost when he had
been killed, probably by one of them, though no one had ever proven it. But
Bachman didn’t need proof. They were all the same, ruthless killers who
preyed on the innocent.
