The Alpha's Tainted Blood
A divine warrior caught between celestial duties and earthly desires. Harper, an angel-blooded shifter, wields a blade that burns demon-blooded foes, but her mate, Elias, carries the very taint she fights. When their bond cracks the seal of a hell gate, she must confront her destiny, a powerful grandfather, and the secrets of her past. Can she protect the world and her love, or will the encroaching darkness consume them all?The angel blade hummed in my hand, a beacon in the chaotic glow of the vampire nest. Two vamps, their eyes burning with malice, lunged at me. I spun, the blade a silver arc, and sliced through them, their demon blood burning them to ash.
"What the…" Elias’s voice, sharp with surprise, cut through the din. He’d been interrogating their leader, too engrossed to notice the sneak attack. I'd thrown my blade, catching it just as it found its mark. Now, with the leader dispatched, I met Elias’s furious gaze.
"Dammit, Harper! I was getting important information from him!" he snapped, stalking off. I rolled my eyes.
"You're welcome!" I called after him, earning a growl as he disappeared. Marcus and Alex, grins plastered on their faces, watched me. "Someone is in trouble with the boss again," Marcus teased.
"He ain't my boss," I retorted, then winked. "He won't stay mad for long. I have my ways."
