Author:<\/strong> Savanna Kougar<\/p>\n

Blurb:<\/strong> Kandace doesn\u2019t know why she\u2019s a real witch. Despite her powers, she can\u2019t find her biological parents. When the Tuxedo Twins tempt her with knowledge about her heritage at a charity event, Kandace agrees to dance with the mysterious Supernaturals. Unexpectedly, they are threatened by the omnipresent evil she\u2019s been warned about in her dreams. To keep from being enslaved, Kandace brings forth her greater magick. But, to save her homeworld, she needs her Hellhounds.<\/p>\n

Zolivar and Zindale, two of Hades\u2019s most mission-accomplished Hellhounds, see a witch sliding down the bannister after her heist of a painting. Spellbound, they know they\u2019ve found just the right Kandy Apple to lick for Halloween. With every passion, Zin and Zol woo their chosen witch. Will their Triad mate stay once she learns they can\u2019t fall in love like humans? Or will she return to her homeworld?<\/p>\n

Chapter One:<\/p>\n

Zolivar and Zindale<\/p>\n

August 14, 2009<\/p>\n

\u201cReady to unleash your inner being?\u201d Zol asked his twin. Utterly naked, he pulled off his gold and onyx signet ring, twirled it once on his finger, then slid it inside his tuxedo pants pocket.<\/p>\n

Zin stripped off his dress pants and tossed them inside their black sports car, affectionately known as the Twilight Mirage. He shut the door with a neat twist of his wrist. \u201cI\u2019m releasing my inner beast,\u201d he returned with dry amusement.<\/p>\n

Standing side by side, they traveled their supernatural gazes over the Mojave Desert\u2019s moonlit landscape. As one, they searched out their target, a corporate hit man. Currently, he followed a prominent woman herbalist. Using biblical herbs, she had recently created a formula that rendered any virus inert.<\/p>\n

Since the woman\u2019s products already sold well, several of the flu vaccine companies had decided to go Mafia, eliminating the threat to their profits in the old-fashioned way.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe only good competition is no competition,\u201d Zol and Zin uttered in unison. On mission, they\u2019d recently infiltrated a Big Pharma company party and heard that phrase spoken several times.<\/p>\n

Sighting the hit man, the enemy to humanity that they\u2019d sworn to hunt down and deliver to Hades, Zol and Zin used their internal radar, locking in his position. A second later, their heads swivelled and their fiery gazes connected.<\/p>\n

Mirror reflections of each other, their eyes flared simultaneously, flashing to hellfire red. Their features took on a reddish glow, their gazes remaining intensely brilliant.<\/p>\n

Growling like thunder in their throats, Zol and Zin morphed into what they were, hellhounds.<\/p>\n

Their guttural howls ripped through the night and seemed to strike the moon. Luna rode high in the midnight heavens, a glowing Halloween orange and nearly full.<\/p>\n

As they gathered their sleek brute bodies, preparing for the chase, horrendous snarls issued from the twin hellhounds. Their coal-black lips curled upwards over their scimitar-like fangs, now dripping with poisonous saliva.<\/p>\n

Together they leapt toward their prey. The explosive power of their beast muscles rippled beneath their hairless ebony hides. An impenetrable shield to most weapons and all manner of magic, their hides were composed of alchemically-arranged volcano magma.<\/p>\n

Totally driven by the hunt, they raced in perfect concert with each other, their gargantuan paws skimming over the desert floor instead of striking fully. As they ran, Zol and Zin existed in two realms, the world above and the Underworld.<\/p>\n

Scarcely aware of what else moved around them, they caught Geraldo\u2019s scent and the smells of his expensively outfitted Jeep. With each giant-bounding stride toward their target, their hellbeast instincts grew.<\/p>\n

Since Geraldo\u2019s employers wanted the exact proportions of herbal substances used in Mary Sweetwater\u2019s formula, and were willing to pay him a small fortune, Geraldo had first attempted to gain her trust but failed. He\u2019d also tried ingratiating himself with her family and friends. That hadn\u2019t succeeded, either, despite his vile seduction of her sister.<\/p>\n
