I gave up on happy ever after a long time ago, so when my annoying younger brother Jerrott sets me up on a blind date-through a dating app no less-I'm quick to make my displeasure known. Talked into not letting down the poor loser expecting me to show up, I give in. If anything, I'll at least get laid. What could it hurt? Daniel: What's wrong with a little romance? For once I'd like to wake up to the sound of a man murmuring sweet nothings in my ear rather than the sound of him hitting the bushes after a swift getaway through my bedroom window. I'm done with gorgeous guys who are nothing but trouble. As it stands, the only boys drooling over me are the playful pups I walk for a living. With Valentine's Day quickly approaching, I let my bestie talk me into yet another blind date. Is it too much to hope for that I'll meet the man of my dreams? I guess there's only one way to find out. Please note that this short story was previously titled The Assassin and The Dog Walker and published as part of the Heart2Heart anthology.

It has been my honor and duty to protect, serve, and advise him. I never intended to fall in love with him. My past is filled with death and bloodshed, but I never once regretted keeping Alarick safe. Now an evil I thought long gone has resurfaced, determined to kill Alarick and plunge the world into chaos. Saving Alarick means revealing the truth about myself. I don't know what's worse, failing to protect the king I love, or watching him turn away from me in disgust when he discovers what I really am. KING ALARICKAs King of All Shifters, my powers are connected to the cosmos, and I have been around since the dawn of time. There are few things that can kill me. Unfortunately, one of those things has escaped its prison and is set to destroy me. The only weapon that can defeat this creature is the Scythe of Kronos, which has been missing for nearly as long as I have lived. When Jean and I set out on a quest to find the scythe, questions I had long ignored must now be answered. What is Jean's connection to this evil? Why will he trust me with his life but not his secrets? As my most trusted valet, and my greatest friend, surely nothing that happens along this perilous journey can change what I feel in my heart for him. Or can it?
