I'm not my father."
"You want me to believe you would remain faithful to me
for the rest of your life?"
"Monogamy is a human concept. I won't pretend to be
something I'm not. A wife is honored and cherished above all
others."
"But there would be others."

It wasn't a question, and he didn't reply as if it were. "Tell
me about last night."
She suppressed her gasp, but a guilty flush spread across
her face. "What are you talking about?"
"Victor said you were attacked, but he neatly danced
around the details. I want to know what happened."
His Royal Highness had returned. She sighed. That didn't
take long. "If monogamy is a human concept, why the hell do
you care? Something or someone was using me like a puppet.
What took place was ... beyond my control. That's all that
matters."
"Compulsions are a vampire's favorite trick."
"It wasn't Victor. This thing was in my head, not just
messing with it."
"Were you harmed in any way?" He stood and rounded the
table, pulling her to her feet. "One of my guards is also a
healer. Would you like him to examine you?"
"I'm fine." He stood in front of her, easily within reach.
Victor was right; she was an elemental person. She trusted
her instincts, her intuition. If there was no chemistry between
her and Seth, there was no reason to take this any further.
She found him physically appealing, but that would never be
enough for her.
As if sensing her train of thought, he cupped her chin and
tilted her head back. His lips brushed over hers, warm and
gentle.
I've wanted you since you were sixteen, he whispered in
her mind. Thoughts of you gave me a reason to fight during
my captivity.

He deepened the kiss, pressing her against his chest as his
arms wrapped around her. She reached back and buried her
fingers in his silky hair. Their breaths mingled first, then their
tongues touched almost tentatively before they curled and
stroked.
Suddenly he stiffened. His arms tightened then released,
and he stepped back. His gaze gleamed with silver light,
frosted over by mystic sight. She'd known he was clairvoyant,
but she'd never witnessed a psychic trance. He remained
motionless for what seemed like hours then the silver haze
dissipated.
He swayed and she caught his upper arm, helping steady
him. "I need to rest," he muttered, twisting out of her grasp.
"Wait. What did you see? Why are you angry?"
He didn't look back as he left the club.

Chapter Four
Seth folded his arm across his eyes, trying to decipher the
vision with as much objectivity as possible. His visions were
always confusing, but this one had been a disorienting meld
of impressions and images, undoubtedly tainted by his
reaction to each.
He lay on the bed in his hotel room, the curtains drawn
against the flickering lights. Silence. Focus. He needed each if
he hoped to unravel the meaning of what he'd seen.
Darkness caressed him as he summoned the clearest
image to the forefront of his memory. Tess lying naked on a
leather sofa, her legs sprawled as that wretched vampire ate
her pussy. He could almost taste her cream and feel the
softness of her pink flesh. But it was Victor who licked her,
Victor's tongue pushing into her core.
Jealousy blazed through him, threatening his
concentration. So, they were lovers. He'd suspected as much
all along. She was a mature woman in the prime of life, and
he'd always sensed her passionate nature.
Once she'd believed him dead, it was only logical that
she'd move on with her life. She'd been little more than a
child when he knew her. So why did reality sting so badly?
He tried to dispel the image, to summon another aspect of
his vision. The perspective shifted, closing in on her face. Her
delicate features were contorted with the most disturbing
combination of lust, fury, and shame. This wasn't passion.
Had Victor ... no, the entity. This was how her behavior had

changed. Seth understood why Victor avoided the specifics,
but the detail was important to the investigation.
As his brain registered the true significance of the image,
his gift allowed him to access the next image. Another sex
scene. He tensed. Tess straddled Victor's hips, eagerly riding
his cock. She gasped and arched her back, taking him deeper.
This was certainly not coerced.
Suddenly the vampire rolled, taking her with him. He
rocked back on his knees and pulled her hips up to meet his
downward thrusts. Seth fought the image, hating the burning
fury consuming his soul. Anger was such a useless emotion.
The image shifted slightly, and Seth watched himself climb
onto the bed beside the fucking couple. He bent and kissed
her mouth as Victor continued to fill her core. She kept her
arms raised above her head, utterly surrendered, lost in the
pleasure they unleashed within her.
Seth caressed her breasts, squeezing her nipples until she
gasped into his mouth. His hand slid lower, easing between
her body and Victor's, feeling her slick flesh stretch around
the vampire's shaft.
Slow spreading heat passed through Seth's body. He [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ]
