The Cougar and the Wolf (9 page)

He lifted his head to smile down at her. “I can be anything you want me to be. Just ask the question.”

“Krystal…Ms. Kerr?” A persistent reporter broke loose from the crowd, evading security to shove a microphone between them. “You have to tell us… Your fans need to know. Is this the next Mr. Kerr?”

Time froze as she looked up at Kyle, the same question in her eyes. Her breath caught as he turned to a reporter with an easy smile.

“Not the
next
Mr. Kerr, no. The
last
Mr. Kerr there’s going to be. Ever.”

The End

Mina Carter was born and raised in Middle Earth (otherwise known as the Midlands, England). After a slew of careers ranging from logistics to land-surveying she can now be found in the wilds of Leicestershire with her husband and young daughter…the true boss of the family.

Suffering the curse of eternal curiosity Mina never tires of learning new skills which has led to Aromatherapy, Corsetry, Chain-maille making, Welding, Canoeing, Shooting, and pole-dancing to name but a few. A veteran Star Trek RPGer, she’s run both games and groups of games but now finds her home in Bravo Fleet, one of the internet’s oldest Star Trek simm groups.

She juggles being a mum, working full time and writing, tossing another ball in the air with her cover artwork. For Mina, writing time is the wee hours of the morning before anyone wakes up and starts making demands, or any spare minute that can be begged, bought or conned.

Her first stories were penned at age 11, when she used a stationery set meant for Christmas thank you letters to write stories instead. More recently, she wrote for her own amusement and to save on outrageous monthly book bills. Now she’s totally addicted and needs her daily writing fix or heads roll!
