The White Knights are a secret society of protectors. They are decendants of the archangels. The three archangels are, Michael, Gabriel and Raphael. Their decendants work to rid the world of the evil of the Beasts. These beasts are sent from Lucifer. A fallen archangel who once sat at the hand of God. The White Knights are immortals who walk and work among the living. Some are hundreds of years old, but look no older than thirty. Their mission? To protect the world from the doom that the Beasts bring to the world.
Nick Stokes stood on the edge of the deep canyon. He'd sensed the evil before it actually descended upon him. The hairs on the back of his head stood up and he was instantly on alert. Hundreds of years of fighting the Beasts had prepared him for the battle that he would do on this day. He had just moved to Las Vegas and was due to start his "job" the next day. He needed to be careful. Although any signs of the impending battle would be quickly healed.
He saw the Beast at the bottom of the canyon. A rather unimposing figure. He sensed Nick's presence almost immediately. With a snarl and a leap that seemed almost unnatural, he was upon Nick immediately. The battle that followed was extremely bloody and Nick was badly wounded. However, he made quick work of the Beast with his sword. One quick swipe to his neck and the Beast disappeared in a flash of flames and turned into ash immediately. Nick smiled and hid his weapon. He needed to go to his new townhouse to rest and heal.
He had just gotten home and was getting ready to take off his bloodied shirt, when the doorbell rang. He shook his head and debated whether to answer it. He decided to open it just a crack. He opened the door and saw a fiery redhead standing on the other side. Before he could stop her, she pushed her way inside. She took one look at his shirt and said, "Your hurt. What happened?"
Nick tried to think of a good excuse, but his brain had left him at that moment. He was struck by her beauty and a feeling of complete peace. He knew in that instant, they were meant to be together. She was his mate. He looked at her and whispered, "Hello Catherine."
Catherine was speechless and said, "How did you know..."
"I've known you for years."
"But we just met and..."
Catherine stopped and looked deep in his eyes. It was at that moment that she felt it too. Something deep inside her told her that he was her destiny. No wonder Eddie and she were constantly at odds. He wasn't her soulmate. Nick stood before her and she knew. She knew that he was her destiny. They looked deep into each other eyes and suddenly, they were in each others arms. Soon, they were in Nick's bedroom. They were soon naked and making love. Time stood still as they lost themselves in the rapture of their mating. Nick's fangs appeared and he sunk them into her left shoulder. It should have hurt, but instead it was incredibly erotic and made her experience the most incredible orgasm of her life.
She looked at Nick and whispered, "I've never done anything quite like this. I..."
She smiled as she turned and looked in the mirror. She saw a mark on her shoulder and knew that she was his. Forever and always. She was ready to take her place next to him in battle against the Beasts.
