Slava rested in the cave until the shadows of the coming evening crowded out the light of day. The air seemed to be changing now. If he were a fanciful man, he could almost imagine that something was watching him. Something not of this human world. Though he could not imagine what it could be.In Russia, his parents and grandparents believed in what was called the Unclean Force. Нечистая сила was both the devil and all demons and potentially harmful in Russia. Although the beings of this unclean force resided primarily in the spirit realm — тот свет, they were able to manifest themselves in this world in many forms. The most well known among the unclean force were sorcerers, witches, the undead, and the "unclean dead", including suicides, those who died of drunkenness, victims of accidents and violent deaths, unbaptized infants, and vampires. Likewise, strangers and people of other religions were viewed as possessing the unclean force.He’d heard the tales the entire time he grew up

Cowboy worked on Maverick’s chest. Breed could see Maverick fighting, not to scream at the pain from Cowboy digging out the bullet.Paige was holding Maverick down the best she could but she was sobbing as she did so.Finally, Cowboy pulled out the chunk of lead and blood was pouring from the wound. “He’s lucky, the bullet hadn’t been fatal,” he noted as he threw the bullet onto the bed and immediately plugged the hole with a towel. The blood soaked through the towel before long.Breed stepped up and asked, “What do you need?”Cowboy whipped his head around and told him, “I need a hot blade to cauterize the wound.”Breed took out his knife and a lighter then began heating the blade. As soon as it was cherry red, he handed it to Cowboy.Cowboy pressed the hot metal down on Maverick’s wound.Maverick shouted out as he bore the pain.When Cowboy lifted the blade, the wound had stopped bleeding.Maverick grimaced then looked over at Breed. “Tell me you got that fucker.” He gritted betwee

Maverick paused and for the first time all day, that smile appeared on his face. “Babe, I’m about as real as you’re going to get.” He grabbed her up and crushed her mouth with his.Paige felt breathless and like she was being engulfed by a tornado. A very hot and hard tornado.He kissed her deeply and wildly as he pulled her in tighter.Paige could feel how hard he was as his jeans pressed against her. The man sure could kiss and she was really wondering if she could just seduce him, get what she wanted and give him what he seemed to want. Then they could lay in bed for a long while afterward. Paige suddenly realized her bold and wild thoughts, but his kiss just seemed to make her mind go blank now.Maverick finally pulled his lips from hers and s

 Maverick could see her silhouette through the speckled glass enclosure. Gripping his hands into fists, he took a deep breath. Imagining her nude under the water spray was doing things to him he wasn’t ready for. He fought the urge to barge in and turned to go back to the counter. Hearing a sound, he stopped in his tracks.There it came again.He froze and listened.Damnit, she was crying. Why? He took a deep breath and went into the bathroom, where he knew he should not be. He moved closer and he could hear it for sure now.Yes, she was weeping.He shucked his shirt off, bent and unlaced his boots, kicking them off. Then he unzipped his jeans. He tore down his boxer

“But if things go sideways…” Breed gazed at them all. “Take them down. Greer will lead.” He then swung his gaze back to his VP.Greer stared him down. It had been his job for years to protect this man. Everyone in the room could see the strife he felt. He dropped his shoulders and stepped to the side. “If they shoot you, I will kill as many of them as I fucking can.”Breed gave him a lopsided smile. “I know you will. But make sure our men survive, man. That’s all I ask.”The men all looked tense. They couldn’t lose their prez. If they did, all hell would break loose as they might just storm outside and cut everyone down who approached. Their loyalty and respect for Breed knew no bounds.Breed opened the d
