Excerpt Deep in the northernmost jungles of Brazil, Constantino stretched out on a rock deep inside a cave and listened to the faint sound of the waterfall right outside his door. Lately, his dreams were disturbed. He tossed and turned, and as a result, his nightly hunts were not nearly as productive—or deadly—as normal. Tonight, right before he opened his eyes, he finally had a clear enough vision to recall the subject of these disturbing dreams. He saw the faces of his brothers, who he had not seen in nearly a thousand years. In the dream, they were all still young men, happy and carefree. He remembered those days well, despite the fact they were so long ago. Once they were free mortals, young and foolish. None of them cared about feelings or had thoughts of tomorrow. Even then, they had felt immortal in some ways. Then Constantino met her. The one woman who he should never have scorned. Deep black hair, violet eyes, and a body to…die for, Esmerelda was the sexiest woman he had seen to that point…or since. The night of passion they shared surpassed any he ever had, but still, he was young and foolish back then, and his sex drive knew no bounds. He got up, shook his head, licked his fur, and tried not to think about those horrible days. He didn’t deserve what she did to him, and his brothers certainly hadn’t either. One mistake should not justify a thousand years of restitution. Constantino walked to the mouth of his cave and stepped outside into the balmy night heat. The sounds of the jungle coming alive and the anticipation of the hunt normally sent shivers of, but not tonight. He sniffed. Something wicked lingered in the air here, but he couldn’t quite place it. He dipped his paw in the fresh water and drank. When he looked up, he saw that for the first time in years, he wasn’t alone.
