The Immortal Prince
"You are insatiable."
"I'm better now, I can take whatever you give me," I insist, pulling on his arms. Thinking about sex means I'm not thinking about what is going to happen to me very soon. And it's easy to consider, since it's most of what I think about when I'm around my mate.
Hale holds my face in his hands, eyebrows raised. "But what I want to give you requires you to be immortal."
"Really?"
"I wouldn't want to hurt you..." he breaks off, all the humour vanishing from his face. I realise, it really isn't just about me being wounded, but also me being immortal. Does he really think he is capable of hurting me?
