I used his now still chest to push myself up on steady hands, puffing a loose hair out of my face I considered the head, barely attached to the side of the vampire's shoulders. Then I retrieved the short sword at my back, while I swung the sword in a full arc, I expelled a small huff of breath and severed the head of the monster that had stolen Isabelle. The vamp's mass now blocked the front door, so I threw the head out the opening and heard it thump down the stairs. I felt eyes watching me. I scanned my surroundings expecting to witness the mystery vampire from earlier attempt to sneak up on me. Instead, I met the dull brown eyes of a little girl curled up in the corner. "Who are you?" Way too calm for the current situation, her soft voice contrasted in the macabre cabin. There was a good chance she was in shock. "My name is Aisling and I kill the monsters," I said, rising from the squatting position I had assumed to evaluate Isabella's injuries. "How did you know he was a monster?" The sound of raw pain and misplaced admiration in her voice broke my heart. "Oh, honey. They're all monsters." When vengeful Aisling Brooks must pretend to date Master vampire Roderick Keats, he tries his best to rock her views of the supernatural community. That doesn't stop her from trying to kill him though. Immersed in the very world she hates, Aisling must find the person that hired her or forfeit her life and those of her friends. Roderick becomes detached after her assassination attempt, while Aisling is cut off from her friends and help. It seems as if all of Roderick's people are aloof at best and homicidal at worst. As her preconceived ideals crumble beneath her, Aisling finds Roderick isn't the only one being hunted by the mysterious benefactor. While discovering that she might be the worst detective in history Aisling is sure of one thing: part of her will not survive trying to kill Roderick Keats.

"What's your name?" I spat blood from my mouth and tilted my head up to look at him. "Pippa Cade." In response, the man simply laughed before informing the guy on the other line. He hung up and the man crouched in front of me brushing a short strand of hair behind my ear. "He said he wants to talk to her, he is on his way down now." The group laughed once more and waited for the backstage door to open. "For a girl, you fight well." "Easy for you to say, she didn't kick you in the balls." The third man spoke up and I could help the smile that graced my lips, however, it didn't go unnoticed. A kick that threw my head upwards, with a hard blow that made me think I had broken my jaw. "Still smiling?" "I would but there is blood in my mouth and I wouldn't look that hot." I dropped my head forward. Moments later the door hit the wall as a man walked out the club with his cigarette. "Pippa Cade, lovely surprise for you to be in my club." "Aww you're very welcome, if you're that grateful can I go?" I attempted to stand back up but he kicked me back down. I swear if one more person kicks me, I'm going to lose my shit. "I take it you don't know who I am?" "Should I? You only seem important to these idiots." I coughed out more blood and ignored the laughs that filled the alley. "I'm Jackson Storm." The name sent chills of fear and terror all around my body and I wanted to throw up. "Oh well, you guys seem great but I must get home. I'm out past my bedtime." This time I get to my feet and steady myself as I wipe away the blood that exploded on my face. The two twins block the exit through the gates and Hunter blocks me from re-entering the club. "Listen, we just wanted a drink, it's not our problem your gang has a rival with his brothers." I was suddenly silenced by Jackson throwing me against the wall and blocking me between the wall and his body. "Pippa Cade, right? Torturer of tortured souls, you might be you still have quite the reputation. I might keep you."
