When her gaze strayed to a noisy group performance in the corner, Con touched her arm to get her attention.“Can you give us times?”
“Uh ...sure.About 9:00 to midnight.We fucked like bunnies.Guy gets it up over and over.I left and went home.Exhausted.Didn’t have it in me to do anymore.I felt about a pint low, too.”
Rey was surprised.“You know he’s a vampire?”
“Yeah.Not the fake kind either.”
After the woman headed toward her next entertainment, Rey shared, “That lets Laz off the hook.The ME’s assessment was that George was murdered around 10:00 to 11:00 at night.”

After confirming Laz’salibi, Con didn’t figure they should stick around too long.The pheromones were getting to him, and from the glossy sheen of sweat on Rey, he figured she was saturated with the smell.Besides, with the many real vamps in the club, the suspect list just got longer.They couldn’t very well interview all of them tonight.
Before they left the bullpen, Rey surprised Con.She snagged onto his upper arms, smashing her breasts against his chest and lacing her fingers at the back of his neck.She rose onto her toes, dragging her lips down his cheek to his jaw and to his chin.
Fuck me.She was more affected than he figured.
So was he.Con gave in to his wolf, who was a goner.He grabbed Rey’s shoulders and slammed her against the wall, assaulting her mouth with his.He demanded his tongue get inside.When she opened to allow him entry, he growled and tasted her.
Back off, he ordered himself.
Con released her, but his wolf didn’t like it.When he stared into Rey’s eyes, he searched for the go-ahead.“Say yes,” he snarled.
When she hesitated, he prepared to walk.But she answered, “Yes.”
Con recaptured her lips, his hands wandering to her breasts.They felt as luscious as they looked.He squeezed.When she moaned, his fingers roved to her shirt and pulled it from her pants.His palm touched skin and crawled higher until he shoved her bra aside and clamped onto a nipple, caressing and pinching.
Rey wrapped a leg around the back of his knee, spurring him on.
He dropped his hands to her ass, lifting her into place, his lips never leaving hers.When he had her in position, he rotated his hips forward, his hard cock searching for her soft, warm sweet spot.
It wasn’t enough.He backed off to unzip her pants and give his fingers room to work.
“Yes.Yes.”She arched into him.
Someone ruined the moment by clearing his throat.
“What?”snarled Con, his hand still occupied.
“I can set you up in a room, or you can stay in the bullpen, if that’s your thing, dog.Don’t know how the NYPD chick is gonna feel about it tomorrow, though.”
Rey pushed on Con’s chest, dropped her feet to the floor, and zipped up.She fiddled with her hair until it was restrained in a bun again.Though she stuffed her shirt into her pants, she didn’t bother to button it up to the neck.
Con’s wolf wasn’t happy.Fuck him.He’d have to live with a hard-on.
He willed his dick to shrink but knew it wouldn’t happen in Blood Sport.As Rey stomped off for the exit, he stayed to ask, “Laz, any vampire clients or workers who might rip out a human’s throat and dump him in your backyard?”
“No.I vet the vamps who work here.I don’t let in visitors unless they have a clean record.”
“If any come to mind, give us a call.We’ll be back to talk to them.”Rey had left a card in his office.
Outside, a frustrated, still hard Con snagged a consent form from the table, scanned it, crumpled it, and tossed it into the trashcan.“Legit.”
He stuck the closed-mouthed, angry Rey in a cab and took off, shifting on the run, his clothes shredding.He didn’t care who saw him.The pheromones in the sex club continued to flood his nostrils.If he’d gone with Rey, he’d have fucked her in the taxi, and she probably would have let him.She didn’t deserve a strung-out shifter.The experience might not be pleasant for her.
He ran through New York streets for an hour, snarling, weaving around Earthers, dodging late-night traffic, and letting body scents, street detritus, and automobile exhaust push out the pheromones.Finally, he stopped in front of her condo building.Exhausted, his body was free of the club’s smell.But he hadn’t thought the whole shifting thing through.
Luckily, the security guard saw him and approached cautiously.Con was expected, and the guy’s reaction showed how humans had accepted the existence of Aeternals among them.He swung the door open.“Ms.Todd said to let you up.”
