Obsession Untamed (Feral Warriors #2)(88)

Tighe held Delaney against his side as they all waited. Finally, Lyon hung up.

“That was Foxx. Paenther’s missing. Somewhere in the Blue Ridge.”

“Mage?” Jag asked the question all of them feared.

Lyon nodded. “That’s what it looks like. Foxx sounds…disoriented. More than a little confused. I think he may have fallen under an enchantment as well. He’s near Winchester. I told him to stay there and wait for us.”

Lyon’s hard gaze swung to Delaney. “The Shaman says you’re no longer mortal.”

Tighe pulled her tighter against him as they both watched Lyon warily.

Delaney tensed within his hold. “Apparently not.” A smile flickered over her face as she glanced behind Lyon.

Kara was grinning at her with a double thumbs-up.

Lyon stepped toward them. “You’re a trained FBI agent.”

“I am.”

“Good. I need you to work this case, if you will, without involving the human authorities in any way. You’ll be accompanying Tighe and Jag. Can I count on you?”

Tighe felt her excitement, her pleasure, flowing down the link between them and grinned.

Delaney smiled. “Absolutely.”

As Lyon turned away to issue other orders, Tighe hugged her tight with both arms.

She looked up at him, excitement shining in her eyes. “Looks like we’re going to be partners.”

“Always,” he murmured, his eyes going hot.

In those shining dark eyes of hers he saw the warrior she would always be. His warrior.

His love.

His life.
