Chapter 280

• Demetri admired Gard's new mate for a second, acknowledging how stunning she was, trying to scent her hybrid nature which she was masking well. She looked a right handful, just what his old friend needed. His thoughts quickly conjured up a pair of deep brown eyes, long thick brown hair, and he smiled softly. Yeah, Rayne was stunning to look at but no one could compare to his Mara.
• "I'll report back to Caleb and Annie," he finally said. "You've got this in hand so there's no need for us to be here right now. Let us know if you want a full Were/Council meeting or if we're keeping it in the family." He turned away and headed back into the trees.
• "So that was Demetri Bozic?" Rayne asked in a bemused tone. She was quite taken aback by the vampire, more so than she'd been with any other she'd met before. His reputation preceded him and his general aura didn't disappoint. He was stunningly gorgeous, powerful and decidedly lethal. Just being around him sent a shiver up her spine even if she could appreciate the pretty package he came in. She seriously hoped never to get on his bad side.
