EXCERPTS:
Resting my right hand on my gun, I poked the yellow button
of my office door’s remote with my left index finger. My muscles tightened for
action as the thick metal barrier swung ponderously open with a long-suffering
hiss of hydraulics.
Cooper’s curious gaze swept over me and around the room.
Wizard’s attention swept over Cooper. When the two of them locked eyes, the
Were tensed and the cat started purring. Wizard rose to her feet and arched her
back in a luxurious stretch, her focused attention never leaving the Were.
He was dressed for work, which in the FBI world meant black
slacks and shoes, crisp white dress shirt, black jacket and a tie. The tie was
bright yellow with a picture of Bugs Bunny on it.
He narrowed his luminous silver-green gaze on my cat, and
then landed it back on me. “You should check your video readout before opening
the door,” he said with that kind of authoritative sternness that inspired
people like me to do the opposite.
I frowned at him. “What do you want?”
“To hire you. But first I need your alibi.”
“It’s too early for alibis,” I said, taking a sip of coffee
to cover my surprise. As far as I knew, I hadn’t done anything obviously
illegal. At least, not lately.
He glided into my office in that graceful, menacing way
Weres had, and I buzzed the door closed. Despite looking barely old enough to
buy a beer, Cooper radiated energy and purpose like the sun did heat. As the
door clicked shut, he filled the space making the bread-box size of my office
feel more like a matchbox.
His expression sobered as he eased himself gingerly onto one
of the spindly folding chairs. “Where were you last night between the hours of
eleven and one?”

AUTHOR Bio and Links:
Judy Teel
lives in North Carolina with her boisterous family (husband, three kids, a dog
and
Judy knew she
wanted to be a novelist since she was fifteen. She’d always written stories,
but it was in 10th grade literature class during a boring lecture on Billy Budd
(sorry Mr. Melville) that it hit her—the world needed more magic in it. What
would be sweeter than writing fun, exciting stories for a living?
There have
been a lot of ups and downs since then and a lot of delays, but she’ll be the
first to tell you that you can make your dreams come true. It takes
determination and hard work, but it’s never impossible.
