Poisonous Pleasure by Jennifer Salaiz Read Free Book Online

let’s cut to the chase. Loverboy needs to be dehumanized, as I like to call it. What do you want him to be? You’re going to have to change him.
    “From what I hear, only a collector has the ability to shift into any form of the supernatural world. I know when you had to of existed in the past, the paranormal wasn’t as evolved as it is now. The creatures have definitely multiplied in the last few hundred years since I’ve been around, but all the same, you should be able to change. So what’s it going to be for loverboy: werewolf, vampire, succubus or incubus depending on the gender, fey? Geez, the list is endless.”
    “I can really be any of those? They truly exist?”
    Dominic stared at her. “All right, let me slow it down for the people who seem to have a hard time understanding what they’re told… I…said…they…do…didn’t…I?”
    Marcella didn’t think, she swung. Dominic’s head snapped back, the loud crack echoing off of the interior. Slowly, he lifted his finger to the blood coming from his lip. Staring at it in shock, he turned his gaze to her. “What the fuck was that for? Damn, woman!”
    “Stop treating me like an idiot and talk to me with respect. Before now, you couldn’t have thought I’d believe in things like that. You’re being a prick, and I don’t like it.”
    “Okay, okay. Shit, I’m sorry. Maybe I’m not used to this either, but you’ve caused more trouble for me in the last hour than I’ve dealt with in the last hundred years. Let’s start over, shall we?”
    “Gladly.” Marcella rolled her eyes and looked out of the window.
Starting over…yeah right.
She couldn’t see things changing. He had an attitude problem. The moment he lost it, she’d bow before his feet.
    “Look, there’s Jason! Good, he made it.”
    Dominic sighed and signaled for the black truck to follow. The Maserati pulled out of the parking lot and headed in the general direction of the neighboring town of Aransas Pass. Not two miles later they pulled onto a dead end dirt road. Marcy’s heart began to pound. Thick brush lined the street for close to a mile before they reached a large, white mansion at the end of the road.
    “You live here?” She gasped.
    “As of now, I do. I’m going to miss my house on Shoreline Drive. Great view if you ask me, the best actually, I made sure of it,” he smiled. “Anyway, my instincts tell me to stay in the town so that’s what I’m doing. Besides, it’s an exact replica of my home anyway, the scenery is just different.”
    “Must be nice to make things just appear whenever you want them to,” Marcella said, opening her door.
    “You’ll be able to do it. It’s one of the easiest things you’ll learn, I’m sure. So, have you decided on loverboy? What’s it going to be, wolf, bloodsucker, or,” he laughed, “maybe you have a penchant for wings.”
    She flipped him off and headed for Jason’s truck. “I think I’ll let him decide, if you must know. I don’t see why he has to change at all. He won’t tell anyone.”
    “I’m not taking the chance. By the way…don’t flip me off again. If you want to fuck, just say the words. No need to broadcast it to everyone.”
    Jason’s door opened and he jumped out, hugging her tightly. “You okay?” He eyed Dominic wearily.
    “Fine, let’s all go inside. I need to discuss something with you.”
    They followed the demon through the double oak doors of the large, white mansion. Black marble floors lined the entry way as they made their way into a living room that resembled a cathedral. Caught up in the grandeur, Marcella took in all the expensive paintings and decorations. The place looked more like a museum than an actual home. Dominic groaned and she noticed the men were sitting on white leather sofas waiting for her.
    “Don’t start your shit already.” She made her way next to Jason. A picture stood above the fireplace and she quickly snapped her gaze to the demon. “Change it,
