Shifter mountain, p.9
Shifter Mountain, page 9
“Me? I happen to be the owner and operator of Metamorphosis,” she returned, glaring back at the sexy but rude male.
“You? This place?” he asked, looking around in disbelief.
Anger coursed through her veins.
Just what the heck did he mean by that? Arachne had worked very hard to get this far in life. No one was going to bully her in her own boutique.
“Buggie, what have I told you about strays?”
“Meep meep.”
“Ha! Good one,” the Demon grinned at Buggie, and Arachne’s heart went thud.
“You understand him?” she asked, surprised.
“Of course,” he said, as if she were the crazy one.
“Fine. What do you want?” Arachne knew she was being rude, but she had no choice.
She needed him gone. Okay, truth was, she could not get a handle on her emotions. They seemed to run away with her just from being near the guy.
And that was not cool.
Like, at all.
“I was instructed to come here by my boss,” the Demon explained, hesitantly. “I have a, um, issue, and he says you are the best.”
“An issue? What issue?”
The dubious stare he cast her way told Arachne all she needed to know about the stern faced man.
Doubt her skills, would he?
Fine.
Buggie interrupted with a few meeps, and Arachne rolled her eyes.
She didn’t need a reminder of who Ash was in the Underworld. She knew all too well the Demon of Lust was a favorite of Lucifer’s, and since she needed his ear, it would be wise not to antagonize him by sending this male away. No matter how annoying.
Ugh.
The things she did for her loyal customers!
“So, you’re the one Ash called about earlier. Weren’t you supposed to be here a while ago?” Arachne snapped.
“I was unavoidably detained.” He shrugged with his reply, and she enjoyed the play of muscles that rippled at the movement.
The man was a work of art.
Not that she would let him know it.
“I see,” she said, and for some reason she glanced downward. “Name?”
“Griffin Jara.”
“Job?”
“As you might have already guessed from our previous meeting, I am a legate in the Daemonium Guard. What’s your name?”
“Arachne,” she responded absently, taking his measure with her keen eyes.
“Arachne?”
Griffin repeated her name, but she didn’t answer. It always took a few moments for a person to catch up to who she was. Her tale had been told and retold, mostly incorrectly, so many times that she’d hardly ever had to explain who she was.
Arachne of the old Grecian myths, the legendary spider queen whose pride caused her downfall, and so on and so forth…
Whatever.

Preview of No Otter Lover
A newly awakened she-Wolf meets her mate at an underground Shifter casino in Maccon City. Once Shadow lays eyes on Diego, no otter lover will do!
Shadow Capelli was a dormant Werewolf until the Curse of Natalis was defeated—then everything changed.
With bills to pay, no money coming in, and a clinic full of injured and unwanted animals at Fang & Claw Rescue Center in Maccon City, Shadow just doesn’t have time to learn to control her new Wolf. Never mind her beast’s pesky pining for a mate.
In danger of imminent foreclosure, Shadow doesn’t know where to turn. When news of an underground Shifter casino reaches her ears, she decides to try her luck.
Diego Manuel’s inner Otter yearns for his fated mate. But none of the females in his Raft will do. What Diego needs is a change of atmosphere. But where can he go to settle his beast?
While visiting friends in the Macconwood Pack, he runs into the stunning Shadow at a midnight card game. The female claims she isn’t interested, but he’s determined to have her.
Can Diego convince Shadow no otter lover will do for the sweet she-Wolf?
