Cheater. Too good to be true. Anger and sadness fought within her, and sadness won. She burst into tears. Yesterday, she would have thought that crying in front of everyone and on the job would be her worst nightmare come true. But now she knew what her real worst nightmare was. It was meeting a man who she\u2019d dared to dream might be her man. Her one-and-only, forever. And then discovering that he was just the pretense of a good guy, not the real thing; an actor playing a role, as fake as the Mars rocks made of painted canvas stretched over a wooden frame.<\/p>\n

After a few minutes, she became vaguely aware of assorted actors and stagehands and musicians trying to comfort her, and also of Rafa and Nick shouting at each other. \u201cYou never fucking told me not to mention that Paris was your ex!\u201d Nick yelled. \u201cShe\u2019s not my ex, that\u2019s the thing!\u201d Rafa\u2019s deep voice seemed to shake the rafters. \u201cHow the hell is she not your ex when you were fucking married?!\u201d<\/p>\n

Nick retorted. \u201cHey! Can you two have this discussion outside?\u201d Lubomir broke in. \u201cWe have work to do in here.\u201d \u201cI can\u2019t leave. I\u2019m guarding everyone,\u201d Rafa protested. The silver-haired woman cleared her throat. \u201cNick, Manuel, let\u2019s go. We can sort this out at some better time and place.\u201d Nick\u2019s green eyes flashed angrily, but he acquiesced. \u201cFine. Me and Manuel can go hunting, like we planned.\u201d Manuel dragged his feet as Nick and the silver-haired woman started to hustle him out the door.<\/p>\n

\u201cCould we come back later?\u201d \u201cYeah, sure,\u201d Nick threw out, his words clearly aimed more at Rafa than at the college kid. \u201cWe\u2019ll come back when things are less fucked up, if they\u2019re ever less fucked up.\u201d When the door closed behind them, a heavy silence fell across the theatre.<\/p>\n

A Note from Zoe Chant Also by Zoe Chant Sneak Preview: Spy Snow Leopard OceanofPDF.com OceanofPDF.com The Protection, Inc. series Bodyguard Bear Defender Dragon Protector Panther Warrior Wolf Leader Lion Spy Snow Leopard (forthcoming) Top Gun Tiger (forthcoming) Protection, Inc. Box Set 1 (Contains Bodyguard Bear, Defender Dragon, and Protector Panther) Available in Kindle ebook and paperback. All the books in the series are standalone romances.<\/p>\n

Each focuses on a new couple, with no cliffhangers. They can be read in any order. But characters from previous books reappear in later ones, so reading in order is recommended for maximum enjoyment. OceanofPDF.com OceanofPDF.com Chapter One Rafa Rafa Flores was done with one-night stands. But he was never, ever going to admit it. Ever. Especially not to his annoyingly happy mated friends who kept telling him to give up the flings and go find his own mate.<\/p>\n

As if it was that easy! So Rafa plastered on a smug grin for his teammate Nick, who had just elbowed him in the ribs and said, \u201cHey, Rafa, your shirt\u2019s unbuttoned. Did your stripper-of-the-night grab you by it on your way out the door?\u201d \u201cOne: model, not stripper,\u201d Rafa replied. \u201cAnd two: there were two of them. Blonde… gorgeous… twins. Identical.\u201d The entire team had gathered at Protection, Inc. after their boss Hal had called them in, along with the mates of everyone who had mates, so Hal and his mate could tell them some good news in person.<\/p>\n

He\u2019d greeted them all in the lobby as he stood with his arm around Ellie, his sweet and brave paramedic mate. Rafa had a pretty good idea of what the news would be, and from the excited way everyone had been watching Hal and Ellie, they all did too. But once Rafa had claimed that he\u2019d left twin models in his bed, everybody turned to stare at him.<\/p>\n

Hal and Ellie only glanced at him for a second before they went back to gazing lovingly at each other, with curvy little Ellie nestled against Hal\u2019s huge side. They were clearly too wrapped up in each other and their big news to care if Rafa had just had sex with every single contestant on America\u2019s Top Model. Simultaneously. Nick looked reluctantly impressed.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
