two fucking bitches in heat. And when I catch you, I’ll rip your bloody heads off. I have a thirst for blood tonight.” He growled the last few words.
    Ragen couldn't make out the man's face, but the voice was deeply masculine, almost menacing. Its sound sent tremors through her, and for a moment Regan felt unsure which of the men around her she should be fearing more.
    She made a quick decision. Wrestling free of her attackers, she darted as fast as she could toward the unknown man in the shadows. The other men turned, taking off in the other direction. 
    As she reached the alley, the heel of her right shoe caught in a sidewalk crack twisting her leg and sending her body flying forward. Strong arms caught her, stopping her from hitting the ground. “I’ve got you.” His voice was smooth, reassuring. “It’s okay. You’re safe.” He pulled her closer, and she allowed it, resting her face against his shirt, inhaling his clean masculine scent. She could feel his musculature beneath her fingers and felt safe in his arms, soothed.
    They stood quietly for several moments. She held onto him as he rubbed her back, feeling snug in his embrace. “Better now?”
    She moved back, and he helped regain her balance as she removed her other shoe. “It hurts a bit.” She grimaced rubbing her ankle. “But I heal fast. Thank you.” She readjusted her dress tugging it down her thighs. 
    “I’ll be right back.” He stepped away from her to examine the ground near where the men turned to run. “I think I heard him drop your keys.”
    The street was deserted. Only a few lights cast shadows on the buildings around them. The area looked more eerie somehow than it had before, and a shiver ran up her spine as she remembered what had just happened.
    He re-entered the alley and handed Ragen her car keys and the high-heel she’d lost when fleeing her attackers. He was enormous. Nearly two times the size of the men who had accosted her. “Thanks,” she said.
    “ Do you want to call the police?”
    She looked toward the direction where her car was parked. “I don't know. I’m just so relieved you came along when you did. I’ve never been so afraid. I didn’t know what to do.” She giggled nervously, and the sound had an edge of hysteria to it. 
    “Where are you headed? I can walk you there.” They both stepped out of the alleyway onto the main street. She could finally see him more clearly. And for a moment, her mind was unable to form a thought. He had unusual amber eyes. She was a tall woman, but he made her feel small standing next to his bulk and height. He was gorgeous with dark hair that carelessly hung down over his forehead. In fact, he was easily the most handsome man she’d ever seen. Deep inside her a flame ignited in her womb making her feel warm all over. Her heart started racing, and this time it was not from fear.  Her palms were damp. He was making her feel like a swooning teenager.
    “ I was on my way to the Tyler medical building. I’m here for a fund-raiser.  I have a friend waiting for me there. You may have to help me, though. My shoes are a bit banged up.” Using him for balance, she readjusted both heels as well as she could. He took her hand and placed it on his arm, his touch making her heart quicken.
    “ So your friend let you park the car by yourself?” Her rescuer frowned.
    “ No.” Ragen shook her head. “My girlfriend’s the speaker. We were running late. I let her off at the door and told her I would find a place to park.” Ragen smiled up at him, her gaze drawn to his. His eyes were an amazing contrast against his tan skin and black hair. “You have amber eyes.” She cocked her head to the side as she studied him beneath the streetlamp. “Or, are they contacts?” she asked, her inquisitive nature taking over her tongue. “I’m sorry, I don’t mean to be rude. I just could not resist commenting. They are that…incredible.” 
    “ No, I’m a member of a rare group of
