from using their mind control in such a manner on humans. It went against everything he and the realm stood for. They were protectors, not predators, of humans.
The sound of glass breaking caught his attention. He noticed that each of his warriors had gone into battle-mode. Across the bar, an imp was arguing with a sea demon. The pesky little demon had grabbed the transformer talisman from the sea demon, and he was now a fish-out-of-water, literally, gasping for air. Females began shrieking at the sight of the large fish. Zander shook his head. Imps were notoriously mischievous demons, but they meant no harm, and thankfully, sea demons were fairly mild-mannered.
He turned away from the scene as Bhric began grumbling. “Stupid little fuckwad had to go and scare the females. Speaking of fuckwads, have we received confirmation of a new archdemon, brathair? ” Bhric asked as he threw back another shot.
Zander met his brother’s gaze. He had suspected for months there was a new archdemon in town. It was to be expected after they had killed the last one, but he had the feeling whoever Lucifer sent this time was more powerful with better skill. They had been encountering skirm who were trained in combat and on organized patrols. No doubt the patrols were designed to discover the location of their compound. “Nay, dammit. The Valkyrie and Harpies deny any knowledge. There is only rumor and conjecture.”
“Och, it would be nice to know what we are facing and give Killian a chance to work his magic on the computer and gather some intel,” Bhric said.
“That it would. But, for tonight, put it oot of your head, brathair . Find a lass, or ten. This will still be there in the morning, unfortunately,” Zander responded as he spotted Lena returning from the restroom. He had found his partner for the night. He crooked his finger at her. “Lena, join me, it’s been too long since I’ve seen you.”
“Of course, mon couer, ” she purred as she sashayed to his side. He looked into her dark-brown eyes, eagerly grabbed her hand and sat her across his legs. His erection returned with force. He paused in his caress of Lena’s arm when he realized the honeysuckle scent was coming from her. He picked out slightly astringent notes that told him it was a bottled fragrance rather than the natural tones of the human’s. “You smell different tonight. Is that a new perfume?”
“ Oui , it is. I thought of you when I bought it. I was hoping to find you here tonight. I have missed you, mon ami . I see you have missed me, too,” she whispered in his ear and started caressing his inner thigh and erection.
Inhaling deeply, he closed his eyes and enjoyed the feel of her soft hands caressing his body. It amazed him the incredible affect the perfume had on his libido.
Lena tilted her head slightly, exposing her neck to him. The movement stirred her perfume. Mmmm, addictive. He ran his teeth over her throat, anticipating sinking his fangs into her neck as he sunk his cock into her heat.
He downed the rest of his scotch, stood up and pulled Lena up against his chest. Lowering his lips to hers, he relished the gentle slide of her soft lips against his.
“Backroom, now,” he ordered.
CHAPTER TWO
Zander led Lena down the long hallway. He refused to take her back to Zeum with him. His bed was reserved for his Fated Mate. He had designed and hand-carved it with the guidance of his mate’s soul, and would never sully it with other females. For the past century, he had used the private rooms in the back of Confetti for his liaisons.
Even through the loud thumping music, his preternatural senses heard Lena’s heels clicking on the stained-concrete floor, and the passionate moans and sounds of skin slapping skin through the doors they passed. With the erotic sounds surrounding them, anticipation thrummed through his blood. He opened the last door on the left and ushered her into the small, dimly lit room.
The cement floor was covered
