Agon Read Online Free PDF Page A

help me with a project. But I can see that you’re…and are you
aware there is a dead man on your floor?” There was humor in Kala’s
voice, and Agon had a feeling she’d seen more than he’d thought. He
wondered if she would tell anyone that he’d been about to kiss the
younger woman, but then realized Kala knew her.
    “ I came back here and I
found him…David was supposed to be picking up product. I let him
have the lockout code so that I don’t…why are you here again?” The
woman looked at him. “Why are you still here? I think I’ve made it
abundantly clear that you are not wanted or needed
here.”
    Ignoring her for the moment, he looked
at Kala. There was still the smile that gave him chills for some
reason, one that told him she knew something that he did not. Agon
was not used to people looking at him this way.
    “ I wish her name, please?”
Both women looked at him, and he smiled as charmingly as he could.
“It would help me in my duties if I did not have to call you woman
all the time.”
    Kala was nearly brimming with
laughter, and Agon smiled more. There was something going on here,
and he wanted to know what it was. He liked a good joke and laugh
as much as the next person. Before Kala could tell him anything,
the woman spoke.
    “ I don’t care what you
call me so long as it’s not where I can hear you. I think I’ve
asked you like a dozen times to leave here, yet here you still are.
Don’t you have anything better to do with your time?”
    “ I do not.” He leaned back
against the table and crossed his arms over his chest. “I have been
assigned to care for you. I take my duties very seriously. The fact
that I wish to kiss you is a bonus.”
    “ You most certainly will
not be kissing me.” He watched as her tongue came out and moved
along her lips, wetting them, seemingly, for him. He felt his cock
stretch more and wondered about that as well. He’d never in all his
life had a reaction like this to anyone. He looked at Kala when she
cleared her throat.
    “ Her name is Judith.
Judith Craft. She was out at the house yesterday helping me
identify the plants in the herb garden.” Agon watched Judith’s face
and wondered what it was about her that had him wanting to run for
his life and take her into his arms at the same time. When
something occurred to him, he straightened up suddenly.
    “ Oh no.” They both looked
at him as the realization of what was going on started to wash over
him. “Oh, I will not let this happen to me. I do not want a female
in my life. I will not…I knew that there was something going on
when I was asked to come and watch her for a few days. I will not
have it. I do not…I shall speak to Boss about this. You will…this
is not going to…I will not have a wife.”
    Kala shook her head and started
forward when he backed away from them both. It was Michael. He’d
done this to him. And Agon was not going to be trapped as Riss had
been. He closed his eyes and willed himself to his room, only to
open his eyes and see that he was still with the woman. Before he
could try again, a sound from the outside had him leaping to both
women and pulling them beneath his opening wings. Gunfire sprayed
the front of the house even as he protected them. Agon had no idea
what had happened, but there was no way he was leaving her until he
had some answers. She was his to protect for the moment, but there
would be no marriage between them.

    Riss held Kala to him even as the rest
of the protectors helped clean up the mess of the front of the
house. He had not been there when she needed him was all he could
think about. And his child…their child…had been in harm’s way as
well.
    “ We’re fine.” He nodded
but didn’t let her go. “Riss, I have to go and see to Judith. She
looks like she’s going to scream at any moment. I don’t think she’s
very good around crowds of people. The poor girl looks so unsure of
herself and I feel sorry for her. And poor Agon; you
