“Hello, stalkers,” I said, emphasizing the plural so there would be no confusion. I snatched my arm from Viktor’s grip and stomping to the door. I gripped the knob and twisted it violently, trying desperately to will it open. When that didn’t happen, I turned around to eye the two men who were practically crawling up my ass.

“Research,” Viktor dismissed, noticing my look of panic as I gazed across the walls of pictures.

“Right, yeah,” I said with unfiltered doubt. Viktor’s golden eyes slid down my body salaciously, his tongue darting out to wet his lip. Normally, if a man looked at me like that I expected them to approach, not slide backwards. A smile stretched over his face as he backed up. I looked at him in confusion until his eyes flicked to the third person in the room.

Lorcan stood there, eyeing me until I could feel his gaze burying itself through my clothes. His horns were still out, a very deep crimson color.

“You two got interrupted before,” Viktor said.

“Shut up, Puca,” Lorcan said, but he looked hungry for me. My body seemed to pulsate as he stepped closer.

“Puca…” I repeated the word. That wasn’t the first time they’d used that name. It sounded familiar, like a lost memory buried deep in my mind. I couldn’t take my eyes off Lorcan though—my thoughts getting cloudy as I remembered that we did indeed get interrupted...by a cat.

I snapped my eyes shut and darted to the right as Lorcan swaggered closer. I got behind Viktor, using him as a shield.

“I’m not fucking anyone right now.’

“Well, that’s no fun,” Viktor sighed. Then he went ramrod straight as Lorcan’s attention settled on him.

“Get control of yourself,” Viktor snapped. I jerked in shock because he sounded exactly like Dullahan. Not sort of like him–exactly like him. Lorcan raised an eyebrow as his eyes began to darken, the whites of his eyes becoming black.

“I thought I told you not to do that,” Lorcan said.

“Ah fuck,” Viktor grumbled as Lorcan stomped towards him. I flung myself into the corner of the room and watched as Viktor straightened his back and tipped his head up arrogantly. Though I could also see him shoving his shaking hands in his pockets.

Lorcan grabbed Viktor and then flung him at the table by a laptop. He landed half on top of it. When he tried to pull himself up, Lorcan was already behind him, grabbing him by the back of his suit jacket and tugging him up. His body pressed behind him, caging him against the furniture.

Viktor’s face looked hot, his eyes half-lidded in lust, and his mouth cracked open as he let out a staggered breath. Lorcan reached around him and tugged the laptop open.

“He said to check the hit list,” Lorcan purred in demand, making Viktor shiver.

“Wait…what?” Viktor asked in confusion as he processed the words. Lorcan pressed his hips harder against the other man’s ass.
