Bitten by a Hellcat – Excerpt
Owen closed the
door, rounded the compact car and slid into the driver’s seat. He twisted at
the waist and put his bag on the back seat, and then put the key into the ignition
and started the car. The engine growled to life and he flicked the switch for
the lights, checked the road and pulled out. He tugged his seatbelt on as he
drove and glanced across at Cait.
“Buckle up.” He
waited to see she was doing as instructed, tugging the slim black belt across
her chest, before returning his focus to the road.
It was quiet, the
night drawing on, making it easy going as he navigated the short journey deep
into an affluent neighbourhood near the centre of London.
Cait’s eyes grew
wider by the moment as she stared out of the windows, taking in the buildings.
When he drove through large black wrought iron gates, her eyes shot impossibly
wide and she looked across at him. He kept his eyes on the road, unwilling to
field her silent question, slowing the car as he drove through the rows of
beautiful pale townhouses.
He turned left
down another side road where the biggest houses were located and pulled the car
into a reserved parking spot outside his one. Cait was still staring at him. He
turned the engine off, undid his seatbelt, gathered his bag, and stepped out of
the car.
She followed him a
moment later, her eyebrows pinned high on her forehead as she finally looked
away from him, her gaze settling on the huge four storey Georgian townhouse
behind him.
“What you
pictured?” he said before locking the car and turning his back on her. He
strode towards the short black iron gate, opened it and glanced over his
shoulder at her.
She hurried
towards him, her eyes flitting between him and the house.
It was too big for
him.
He used the sum
total of five rooms out of the possible fourteen.
“This is yours?”
She spoke at last, her gaze on the white townhouse, slowly drifting up the
height of it.
Owen walked up the
path, took the steps up to the covered porch with its Grecian columns, and
unlocked the wide black wooden door. He pushed it open, proving it was his.
“It belongs to my
family,” he said as way of an explanation when she looked at him again. “It
costs a small fortune to run, but I haven’t been able to bring myself to part
with it.”
“You grew up
here.” It wasn’t a question. She looked him right in the eye as she said it,
her expression sober, and he nodded.
It wasn’t often he
met someone who could see straight through him as Cait could. Most people
didn’t seem to understand him at all.
The humans he met
who weren’t hunters, and therefore were unaware of the world of fae and demons
that co-existed with theirs, weren’t worth his time. He had nothing he could
talk about with them, not as normal people did. He couldn’t gripe about his
work week over a beer with a buddy. The hunters avoided him because he wasn’t
aligned with any of the organisations they worked for and only exchanged
information when it suited them.
The fae and demons
preferred to keep him at arm’s length because of his profession.
The only people he
could really talk to and who had ever understood him were his family, and those
who had been closest to him were dead now. He had a handful of relatives
remaining, mostly from his mother’s side, and he rarely saw them.
“You live here
alone.” Cait’s soft voice drew him out of his thoughts and he sighed as he
looked at her where she now stood on the porch beside him, close enough that he
could smell her sweet perfume on the night breeze.
He nodded again.
“I keep most of the rooms closed and use just the ones I need… bathroom,
bedroom… living room… kitchen. I did make one of the other reception rooms into
a gym and training room.”
She looked as if
she was on the verge of saying it sounded lonely, so he turned his back on her,
stepped into the hall and switched on the lights. Thankfully, she took the hint
and remained silent as she entered behind him and closed the door.
Owen locked it and
pocketed his keys. “Come on. I’ll get you settled in the living room.”
He led the way up
the wooden staircase to the first floor and the large pale blue room he used
for his living room. He grimaced as he realised he had left it in a worse state
than he had thought.
Cait drifted past
him before he could say anything in warning, a twinkle in her eyes as they
danced over all of the weapons spread across the large oak table on the left
side of the room, and all the knickknacks he had left strewn across the square
wooden coffee table nestled in the U of his three black leather couches in
front of the fireplace.
She ambled around
the room and he watched her as she allowed her fingers to drift over a few
items on the coffee table and checked out some of his weapons.
“It looks very
much as I had expected in here.” She lifted her eyes away from the crossbow she
held and smiled across the room at him. “I imagined weapons and books.”
She looked around
at the stacked bookcases that lined the wall to his right between the tall sash
windows and the one behind him, and then down at the sheets of paper, notepads,
and newspapers stacked haphazardly on a smaller coffee table beside an
armchair.
“Although… it has
an air of bachelor about it too.” Her smile teased him and he shrugged.
She hadn’t seen
his bedroom.
If she thought
this room looked like a bachelor owned it, she was in for a shock if she set
eyes on his inner sanctum.
Her blue eyes
drifted over the couches and then roamed back to him, gaining a dark edge of
desire that set his pulse pounding and left him feeling she might just want to
see that inner sanctum.
He was damned if
she was going to see it as it was though.
He wasn’t sure how
hellcats lived, or what accommodation they were used to, but he was fairly
certain that as a woman she wasn’t impressed by clothes strewn across the
floor, unmade beds, and several empty take out cartons, and that was exactly
what his bedroom contained.
“You seem to
favour magic.” Cait set the crossbow down and Owen stared at her, his heart
pounding for a different reason as he took in what she had said. When she
frowned and gestured to all the knickknacks covering the coffee table, his gaze
leaped there and his heart settled. “The items… they’re magic aren’t they?”
Owen quickly
nodded. “I get them in the fae town nearby. Some I use, others are just part of
a collection.”
He backed towards
the door.
“You like magic?”
She looked at him again.
Owen took another
step backwards and gave a noncommittal shrug in answer.
“I have to get
changed and get some stuff together. Make yourself comfortable.”
He turned and
walked out of the room, feeling her gaze boring into his back, intense and
focused, as if she was trying to strip away the layers of his defences to
uncover a truth he preferred to keep hidden.
A secret he’d had
for most of his life and had kept from his father.
A secret only one
living person in this world knew.
