Falling for Mr. Hyde (Finger Licking Monsters #3)

I have one task: assassinate headmaster Hyde. He is powerful and has secrets more dangerous than my own. So why am I kissing him again?
When the Magic Council threatens to deport me, I must agree to their demand I kill Mr. Hyde, Headmaster of Luxior Academy. I am the least qualified shapeshifter for the job. I've never killed so much as a spider.
Not surprisingly, my mission starts with a series of disasters. I shapeshift into a student, but instead of blending in, I end up fighting for survival. The magic academy students break the laws of physics for fun, so attending classes is a deadly hazard.
And headmaster Hyde is a devious opponent.
Suspicious from the start, he forces me to shed my disguise, stripping away my only advantage. Suspicion turns to obsession. He hounds my every step, and to my dismay, his commanding gaze unravels my restraint. We hunt each other among the fire-lit corridors of Luxior Academy, where magic chips away at the laws of time and space.
The deadly dance soon becomes a sensuous play of power and seduction. As Hyde tries to uncover my secrets, his skillful hands prying at my hidden places, I search for his weak spots. It is my fatal mistake. Instead of weaknesses to exploit, I find a man who is devoted, passionate, and as hard as steel. I don’t want to kill him.
No, I’d rather kiss him. Kneel for him. Do anything else he commands. I could even be tempted to risk my life to spare his.
As I venture deeper into this bewildering darkness, I know I'm risking not just my freedom but my magic, too. The stakes are high, and even though I'm in over my head, I need to play dirty to win this game. The problem is, Headmaster Hyde wrote its rulebook.
