Since the moment the dark warrior stepped into the stairwell of her apartment building, and her pleasantly uneventful life, Brisa Reyes has been terrified of...and strangely drawn to him. Even knowing what he is won't stop her body from wanting what her brain sees as danger.

Teran has very little time or patience for fear. But even as he reads the terror in this beautiful telepath's strange eyes, he's drawn to her on every level imaginable, and quickly becomes obsessed with drawing out a temper that is always just below the surface.

A bond is forming...
Her power is changing and growing with every moment spent in his overwhelming presence. It's too much. A responsibility no one should have and she certainly doesn't want. But hers isn't the only power that is growing, because she's a catalyst. And whether they like it or not, their destinies are intertwined.

Something is coming...
When an enemy returns, he brings a friend. But this friend has an ability that could kill an immortal without spilling a drop of blood. Brisa's power can save them, but she's more afraid of it than she is of the evil that is coming for them. It will be up to Teran to convince the catalyst he's claimed.
