“I will always find you no matter where you are! There’s no escape, Alizandra.” I turned her to face me and the terror stamped on her beautiful face made me weep inside. She looked at me just like the devil I was, and that didn’t sit well with my heart, but I got so angry at that moment and so confused. Anger, pain, grief, fear, and God knew what else assaulted me at that moment. I didn’t think of anything else, but to teach her a lesson for being disobedient, for abandoning me. So I showed her the monster I was. I didn’t hide from her. I knew my eyes were glowing, and I exposed my fangs.“What are you?” she said in a whisper, then her eyes changed, and what I saw in those lavenders took me by surprise.There was compassion for a troubled soul like mine, even though she feared me. But those lavenders didn’t lie. She always had the power to see my darkened soul. The world around me ceased to exist when her fingertips roamed over my face like she was seeing the real me, like a veil had

“I’ve never seen myself as one! Only a cursed devil.” The tone in which he spoke held the heaviness of a confession. I broke the contact, resting my forehead on his, trying to catch some air, feeling his warm breath lingering close to my lips. I didn’t prepare myself to see the burden of sorrow in those eyes framed by those sinful long lashes. “Don’t say it like this…”“Why?” My heart stuttered in pain and reached out for him. I didn’t know what to say, so I did what I thought was best at that moment. I covered his mouth with mine in a wild and desperate kiss. “Liz, I won’t be able to behave myself if you keep kissing me this way…”“Then don’t, I don’t want you to behave, anyway...” And all the heat of those golden eyes descended on me, all the adoration in them, and I didn’t even know why I deserved it. He captured my mouth in a possessive way, claiming his stake in me. From that moment on I knew I belonged to him, only to him, and my life would never be the same. His rough hand c

Thank Lord, I found my way back to the spot I’d left my bike. My chest constricted with worry, and if something happened to her, I would be very, very upset.“What’s wrong, Liz? Why are you anxious, and your heart races?” I heard his strong voice right behind me.“How do you know?”“Let’s say I have an acute hearing. Answer me.” I sighed, glaring at him. Gosh, why did he always need to command everything? He sounded just like Dad. “I just hope nothing happened to my sweet babe, that’s all!” There she was in all its glory, perfect! The way I left her about four days ago. I went straight to my saddlebags and retrieved a flashlight, illuminating his face. He blinked several times, and I chuckled.“Stop that!” In the next minute, he was holding the flashlight, examining it. “What are all these?”“Well, that’s a flashlight, and this is my sweetness, my bike!” The look on his face was something. Man, he was rediscovering the world around him! “When was the last time you were awake, Grizzly?

Everything was silent, and I didn’t feel her presence anywhere. My demon raised its head, wanting me to unleash him. Once more she sneaked on me. I was already halfway off the bed, fuming and cursing, when my eyes caught some enormous piece of paper on the nightstand.“Grizzly, I’m not gone, calm down! I’m sure you must be freaking out at this very moment. I had business to attend, I’ll be back by lunchtime, bringing you some surprises. Feel yourself at home, and in the living room, there are shelves full of books. Please, don’t blow my house down while I’m gone. Liz.” Liz… Like old times. My heart calmed a bit, and I glanced around the room, everything was perfect and organized, all soothing tones of white, light pink, and gray. The bed was immense for only one person, and I’m not complaining, as I can think of lots of naughty things to do on it. There were also some plants and fluffy stuff all around. When could I imagine living to see all these changes? Shaking my head, I opened a

She melted in my arms, giving herself into my care, and that made me a lucky bastard. I kissed her nonsense. She had too many clothes on her, since I hadn’t given her time to make herself comfortable at home, jumping on her like a wild animal. I got rid of her jacket and blouse, kissing that long, sinful neck of hers, delivering slow naughty licks on the wound I caused, and along her shoulder line, making her moan in my ears. She had such delicate satin skin against my rough palms; it had more color than her first version, tanned delicious and tasty. I needed to have time to explore those drawings all over her body since she was so fond of them. My hands roamed over her soft breasts, still hidden behind a piece of scrap, and down to her belly. A low growl escaped my lips and I couldn’t get a hold of myself. Her hands tugged on my hair, pulling me closer, driving me crazy. “I love the golden in your eyes!” she whispered to me. Right there, I knew my demon was taking over myself, and
