Bishop
by Marie
Johnston
GENRE: Paranormal Romance
BLURB:
Fyra is on the run. Permanently. Pursued by fellow
underworld demons—and one very angry vampire, she’s running out of options.
After failing her last mission of forcing vampire, Bishop, to give the demon
world the information they want, Fyra knows she’s as good as dead. Too bad
she’s no good at hiding. Everywhere she goes, fires break out. Her combustible
personality is more than annoying—it’s going to get her killed. Tracked by the
random fires reported on the news, her enemies can easily find her—unless
Bishop can find her first.
Bishop Laurent has to free himself of the bond Fyra tricked him into…and do it without exposing his own icy secrets to anyone, especially his team. But after he captures her, he sees past her fiery demeanor. Her knowledge of the underworld would be a huge asset, a perfect reason to keep their bond intact. Only Fyra overhears them and refusing to be a pawn, goes on the run again. Bishop has to find her first, and this time, he must admit his real feelings for her…at least to himself. Can he find her in time to save her life and make their bond last forever? Or will they be killed fighting Hell with fire and ice?
Excerpt:
Was
he in an RV? Glancing around, it was too small to be a camper. His gaze landed
on a cot that was dark except for what appeared to be flames at the top.
His
eyes focused and his heart stuttered.
No
flames, but hair the color of fire spread across a pillow. He shifted forward,
but the toe of his boot hit a soft object. Switching his focus, he started. A
man’s body lay at his feet. His gaze flew back up to the cot just as ember
yellow eyes opened.
His
heart slammed once, then kicked up its pace. His demon.
She
gasped and sat up. “How did you find me?” Then she peered closer. “You’re not
really here.” Sitting back, she chuckled. “Had me going for a bit.”
“You
killed a human, demon.” Bishop prided himself that he got a coherent sentence
out. The exotic beauty in front of him stole his breath.
Her
length was curled into the sleeping space, but she’d be tall compared to most
humans. Her glorious hair lit up the entire cabin of…was this a semi?
And
those eyes.
A
pout curled her fire engine red lips. “Would it have been better that I had sex
with him like he wanted. He actually preferred to force me.”
Bishop’s
leg kicked the body of its own accord. He sneered at the dead man but turned it
on her. His demon deserved the look, not the dead human.
She
studied her fingers. “The cabin must’ve aired out, but I guess you’re not
really here, so the lack of O-two wouldn’t bother you.” Her hands folded on her
lap…on top of deliciously curved thighs. “What are you doing here, Bishop?”
His
name, in that husky voice…he gritted his teeth. If he was tangible, he might
not react any better than the human had.
His
eyes wandered her lush body. Had to know what she looked like after
all…research…
“What
in the devil’s name are you wearing?”
A
flash of vulnerability preceded a petulant expression. She tugged at the neck
of her ridiculous sweater. It was two sizes too small with ratty threads and
barely fit over her sizable bust.
“It’s
not like there were many options, and females in this realm are pathetically
small.” She shifted and that only drew attention to the fabric stretched over
wide hips, stopping short on her deliciously long legs.
