sayin’.” She gave a curt smile and waved. “ Ciao , boys.” The faster she got rid of them, the faster she could defuse the situation and get back to what mattered most. Right now she couldn’t tell if that was Caden handcuffing her or seeing him naked after he shifted back. Both sounded like fun.
    “Before we go...” The midnight black-haired dragon with amethyst eyes stepped forward and extended his hand to her. With the movement, long lengths of hair shifted to the side to reveal a wide strip of color buried beneath a few layers of hair.
    She clasped his hand, which pulled another bestial growl in protest from Caden. “Easy, wolf, I only mean to bestow a gift.” The dragon returned his attention to her. So focused on keeping Caden from taking a bite out of them, she’d missed the streak of color in his hair that matched his eyes. Wicked cool.
    The burst of unexpected color added a fun layer to the otherwise lethal vibe he put out. “My name is Obsidian.” He fell to one knee, still holding her hand. “As long as you require, my brother and I will defend you against any maliciousness brought on you by this task. You only need to call on us and we’ll come.”
    The DraegonStones’ fully black assembles encased perfect bodies beneath. With the way the moon poured in through the skylights and the soft yellow light from inside, every contour in their bodies shifted with the shadows and denoted fierce strength. No doubt, they were a force to reckon with. Now she saw up close what had women falling at their feet to be their consorts.
    Obsidian rose and canted his head. “I only have one more question. Did you find out a name? Anything we can use on how the human came in contact with the illegal substance.”
    She flicked a glance over her shoulder at Caden’s wolf. “Unfortunately, it wasn’t that simple. I went in, verified she had the substance, but something felt off from the start. I found no resistance and no guard to stop me from waltzing in and I didn’t stick around to ask why.” She gave a slight shrug. She didn’t mean to sound edgy or impatient, but the tension grated along her nerves and Caden didn’t look as if he fared well either.
    She decided to stop trying for subtlety. It wasn’t her strong suit anyway. “Sorry some went missing, but you do need to know this. The warlock that the blood was intended for... he had vile plans that involved not just dark magick, but something that involved death. You should also know, I couldn’t tell if the human involved is innocent or not. I’ll leave that up to you and your council of elders. ” If they wanted more of an explanation about the missing blood, though, they’d better find a looser-lipped witch. Like Hades she’d give up her sisters.
    They stared at her for a long moment, then at Caden, who stood sentinel between them and her. With a shallow bid farewell both said in unison, “We’ll be in touch.”
    Great.
    Both dragon shifters stepped clear of the door and pushed off the ground. Seconds later they were gone, their dragon forms melting into the cold night.
    Where the hell did their clothes go? How did they expect her to contact them? Did dragons carry cell phones? That made her laugh and earned her a pointed look from a wolf that made her laugh harder. She tucked her questions in a little mental box to look at later.
    Thunder quaked the ground seconds later. Not even their shadows lingered and they were gone just as fast as they’d shown up.
    “That could have gone a helluva lot worse.” Harmony turned on her heel and aimed to do anything that got her away from Caden and the way he shot her a dirty sideways look now that the threat he perceived to be real had gone.
    How he did that in wolf form and make her feel three inches tall was beyond her. No man ever made her doubt her actions, but the sheriff had an uncanny way of making her uneasy when she toed the line of the law.
    “You care to explain what the hell all that was about,
