Lexsi
Kory lay beside me, a lock of wayward, dark hair falling across his forehead as he breathed evenly in his sleep. I knew he'd wake with a start if I touched his face to smooth the hair back, so I didn't. Shoving that urge aside, I slipped out of bed, grabbed a robe and skipped into the kitchen for coffee and food.
No, we hadn't done anything except sleep for twenty hours—we were too exhausted. The whole kiss-and-bite thing still lay between us, after all. I admit that it was nice to have his arms around me when I fell asleep. I felt comforted and safe, at least for a little while.
I drank a third cup of coffee while the remnants of a plate of eggs and bacon lay on the island in front of me.
Anita shuffled into the kitchen. I turned to look at her.
She muffled a scream before hauling me into her arms and dancing around the kitchen, while I swayed in her embrace like a favorite rag doll.

Résumé
Lexsi
Tears of flame dripped down my cheeks - tears for Kory and me. The fire net burned my hands whenever I touched it, but I couldn't let it harm him any more than it already had. Kory's wings, with burn-holes between ribs, beat to help me get the net off him.
Kory screamed as the net sunk farther into sections of his back - it was designed to burn flesh until it had completely passed through its victim. I shook my hands to rid myself of the wad of net I held and reached for the part that was burning Kory so badly."
Lexsi:
1. Who is behind the plot to kill us?
2. What do they want?
3. Where are they?
4. Why me?
My to-do list is overwhelming...
Kordevik:
1. How can I keep my Thifilathi in line, when it wants Lexsi now?
2. How do I keep the werewolves, shifters, vampires and humans around me behaving in a civil manner toward each other?
3. How can I protect Lexsi and the others, when the enemy wants to destroy all of us?
4. How did I get myself into this mess?
