Across the alley, a pair of luminous green eyes stared at her from the shadows. Her heart kicked into a gallop. "Jace? Is that you?" Please let it be him. He stepped out of the shadows. She blew out a breath. It was Jace. He crossed the alley in a few long, loose strides. An atavistic tremor went down her spine. This was the real Jace—and he was nothing like the injured, feverish victim of last week. No, this man was dark. Powerful. Raw-boned. A panther in a T-shirt and jeans. She squared her shoulders and lifted her chin, because damn it, she'd saved the man's life. She refused to let him spook her. He stopped a few feet away. "Hello, Evie." He was bigger than she remembered, but then, last week he'd been hunched over nursing his injuries. Now she realized he was a good half foot taller than her with the lean, hard build of a soldier. Another shiver went down her spine—but this one had nothing to do with fear. THE FADA. Shapeshifters created during Dionysus's infamous bacchanals.
