Director, maybe .  She was also a little surprised by the woman in front of her.  She looked like she belonged there even less than Erin did.  She was shorter than her but exceedingly curvy, and her colorful clothes and hair were in stark contrast to the muted blacks, blues and combat gear of the other team members.
    “Umm, lovely to meet you too,” garbled Erin.
    Jessie mouthed that they would talk later, and Erin could do nothing but nod.  She felt a sudden twinge and looked up to find Gunner watching her again.  She held his gaze, unsure of what to do, until the Director cleared his throat, and Gunner finally looked away.
    What was that about?
    The Director gave them all hard looks and passed them some files.  “We have a new case, referred to us by the Los Lobos police force.  Over the past two months three female shifters have been attacked with the same MO, and last night the latest victim was murdered in her home.”
    Cutter, Wayne, and Avery let out matching snarls of disgust, making Erin jump.  Gunner simply tightened his lips and took the file.
    Jessie frowned.  “I usually monitor all the news stations, how come this hasn’t come up?”
    “The victims were all wealthy, and their families made sure it stayed quiet.”
    “Why weren’t we told about this sooner?” snarled Cutter.
    The snake shifter shrugged, but it was obvious he was unhappy about the situation.  “The cops thought that they could handle it.”
    “Fucking humans,” muttered Cutter.
    “There are plenty of shifters on the police force, too,” murmured Jessie in a singsong voice.
    “Do they have any leads?” asked Wayne putting an end to Cutter’s growl.
    “No, the perp was careful about covering his scent and his DNA isn’t on file.  None of the victims were sexually assaulted, but they were beaten up and the perp licked their cheeks.”
    Avery pursed her lips in distaste.  “So what changed with victim number four?”
    The Director let out a long breath.  “They were all attacked in their homes, but the others seemed to have been planned out in advance.  The perp brought duct tape with him but victim four was restrained by a telephone cord.  Plus victims one to three were in their early twenties and they were the daughters of males high up in their respective clans.  Victim four was a housekeeper.  It seems to have been a spur of the moment thing.”
    “Or the other attacks were leading up to this.  Are we certain it’s the same guy?”
    They were the first words Gunner had said since he told her it was nice to meet her, and Erin almost fell off her chair.  It was disgusting the way his sinfully, sexy voice affected her.  No, she had to focus.  Her lust wasn’t important right now.
    “The cops think so, but it might be best if we look at each attack separately so that we don’t make any assumptions.”
    “Agreed,” rumbled Gunner.  “Jessie, get me all the info you can on the victims.  We’ll start with the most recent attack.  Avery, you go and talk to the cop in charge of the case, get all their files and notes.  Cutter, go to the morgue, I want the autopsy report.  Wayne, I want you to talk to victim four’s neighbors.  I’m sure the cops have already spoken to them, but I want to know if there were any issues with her being a shifter.  New girl, you’re with me.”
    Erin’s eyes widened as they were met by Gunner’s steely look.
    “Keep me in the loop,” said the Director as he swiftly made his way to the door.  “Oh, and Erin, welcome aboard.”

Chapter Three
    Erin flicked a glance at the massive man next to her.  He hadn’t said a word to her since they left the conference room, and honestly, that was fine with her.  The less she spoke, the less she could make a fool out of herself.
    He didn’t look at her; if anything, his attention was resolutely directed in front of him as he drove them to their destination.  Wherever that was, he still hadn’t deigned to tell her .
