      Chapter One

      Dr. Claire Reese stepped out of the black cab and caught a glimpse of herself in a storefront window.

      Who was this woman dressed skin-tight jeans, knee-high black boots and a shirt draped open in front, nearly to her belly button? She surely didn’t look like the Cambridge graduate with a doctorate degree in neuroscience, nor did she look like the Assistant Director of the renowned Foster Neuroscience Center of England.

      Friendship drove her out, dressed as a seductress, to the nightclubs frequented by Lerajen Demons. Friendship and the image of Valentine Marsh laying in coma. Pale. Still. Dead yet not.

      Because of Claire.

      That’d be twelve pounds, miss, the cabby said out the window.

      Claire realized she’d been standing, half in and half out of the cab, staring at her horrifying, slutty reflection.

      So sorry, she said, digging into her pocket. She handed the cabby his fare. He practically drooled as his eyes landed between her naked breasts. Okay, so it worked on a middle-aged cabby, but would it have the same effect on a Lerajen Demon? Would it distract him enough that she’d get control over the situation? Over him?

      She needed a demon test subject to create the elixir to bring Valentine back. She only hoped her advanced education truly made her smarter than the master manipulator she was about to seduce and hold captive.

      She sauntered across the sidewalk and stood in line at Rush Nightclub. It was fifteen people deep and moving slow. A gust of wind brushed against the skin above her sternum and she cocked her chin up to fight back a shudder. She couldn’t appear weak or insecure in any way. Yet she had never dressed like this, wore this much make-up, or carried weapons like the blade she had in her boot.

      Turning her back to the group, she pulled out the syringe and injected the Gromite serum into her arm. It would protect her mind and weaken the demon’s. Lerajen demons needed the amino acid, Proline, from humans to grow stronger, more powerful. They craved it like an addict craved heroin.

      Once she mated with the demon, he would absorb not only the Proline, but also the Gromite she’d created to weaken him.

      And he’d be hers. Completely under her control. She could do her experiments, create different compounds, and come up with the elixir to bring Valentine’s mind back.

      If Claire could bring herself to allowing the creature to touch her. It’s an experiment. You do them all the time.

      She’d devised a clever plan to expose a Lerajen amongst the crowd of human males. She tapped
