Dark Seduction
different talents.
    She spent her college years researching everything she could find out about paranorms. In addition to tae kwon do, she learned street fighting and hand-to-hand combat. She continued to run track in college.
    Tori moved on to sit-ups, doing one after another after another after another, well into the hundreds, until her stomach was completely fatigued.
    When she’d graduated from college, Mr. Carver referred her to a friend of his and she was trained in ways she’d never dreamed so that she could serve her country. She freelanced for various organizations over the years when they needed someone with her talents.
    It wasn’t until she was approached by the PIA that she learned there was an entire branch of the government that dealt with the paranorm in one way or another.
    She lay on the floor, staring at the ceiling for a moment.
    Working for the PIA didn’t necessarily give her the warm fuzzies. Sometimes she questioned what had been done while she’d been on assignment. Brian usually handled what she thought of as the dirtier aspects of their missions.
    But ultimately, what she was doing was for the United States. So in the name of her country, she did what she had to do.
    And if that meant taking down Logan Savage, so be it.

Chapter 5
    Logan frowned and perched on the corner of his desk, puzzled by the fact that it had been two weeks and Tori hadn’t answered or returned his calls. She hadn’t seemed like the type of woman to have sex with a man then blow him off.
    What really bothered him were the premonitions and the fact that she had disappeared like she had.
    Not to mention he’d fallen for her. And fallen for her hard.
    He looked out the floor-to-ceiling windows at the beautiful Seattle view. Maybe he was wrong and they hadn’t made the kind of connection he’d thought they had. But he was a pretty damned good judge of character so he doubted that.
    Then why the cold-shoulder?
    He’d thought about stopping by her house, but decided that was looking a little too desperate on his part.
    His thoughts turned to the odd looks she had given him a couple of times while they’d had sex. Had his control slipped and had she seen what he hadn’t wanted her to? Damn but he hoped not. Maybe that had scared her away.
    “Logan?” Carla’s voice brought him out of his thoughts and he looked from the windows to see her standing in the doorway to his office.
    He couldn’t help himself as his gaze traveled over her tall, elegant form. Even with a lab coat over her red dress, as well as the pair of glasses she wore when she was in the lab, the woman was stunning. Long, lean legs, a perfect body, and golden hair that fell down to the middle of her back. Usually she had her hair up and in a knot at her nape when she worked, but today she’d let it fall loose around her shoulders in the way that he loved. The strands shone beneath the lights like gold threads.
    Tori, on the other hand, was petite and beautiful in her own way. Short, dark curls framed a pretty face and she had smooth, soft skin. Her hazel-green eyes were warm and inviting, yet she had a hard edge to her gaze. An edge that anyone in law enforcement had.
    It wasn’t that long ago that Carla had dumped him for some lawyer she’d met at her cousin’s engagement party. For a while, every time Logan saw her, something twisted in his gut. The night he’d met Tori was the first time since Carla had broken up with him that he’d made an attempt to meet another woman, much less end up taking the woman against a wall and any number of other places.
    She walked closer to him and shock hit him hard. He’d seen this exact scene… Only it had been Tori, not Carla in the lab coat.
    Déjà vu?
    No, it hadn’t been, damn it. It had been a premonition.
    Then why was Carla standing here and not Tori?
    Carla’s brow wrinkled. “What’s wrong, Logan?”
    “Nothing.” He eased off his desk and approached her. “What’s up?”
    His nostrils flared
