Working on Caressed by the Edge of Darkness (Rulers of Darkness #5).
Coming Summer 2016 |
~ My
lady,” an all too familiar voice called out over the din. She suppressed a
pleasurable shudder and turned to face the vampire of her dreams.
“Good
evening, Sir Knight,” she greeted.
Gannon
paused a moment before smiling, “I doubt I’ll ever get used to that.”
Silvie’s
pulse skipped. The vampire was classically handsome but when he smiled and his
eyes lightened with happiness, she melted.
Clearing
her throat, she added, “You’re a Black Knight and heir to the Tapof throne. You’ll
grow accustomed to the titles and formality.”
“I suppose, but those are two things I never
thought would happen. Hell, I guess you can never say never, right?”
Silvie
forced a smile. She and never were fast friends. “I was on my way to help Kate
with the wounded,” she said, brushing past him.
Gannon
grabbed her wrist and pulled her into the nearby shadows. Her skin burned from
his touch a she yearned to feel that burn all over her body.
Without
releasing her, he stepped forward, closing the distance between them. His warm
brown eyes searched hers. Her breath caught as he licked his lips. She knew he
wouldn’t kiss her, but damn, she would love to be kissed by him.
“You
good?” he asked, his voice a rough whisper.
Silvie
blinked in confusion, her mind a haze of repressed romantic desires. Would he
wrap his arms around her? Would be take her to his room?
“Yeah,
you feeling okay?”
“Oh,”
she gasped, her brain finally shifting back into gear. “Yeah.” She shook her
head, clearing her thoughts. “I’m just a little tired.”
“You
should get some rest. You’ve been working too hard.”
“But the
humans need my help,” she explained~
