.To share it would open him in a way he had sworn never to do again.She would know nothing of him, in the end, but that he was Cait Sith and that he hadn’t been worth the affection she’d wasted on him.Such was the life of the lowbloods who served their masters.He stopped at the bottom of the stairs, which were situated at the head of a long hallway.Candles glowed in sconces on the walls, illuminating tired, peeling wallpaper.Most of the rooms were dark, but the doorway to one farther down was bright with the light of many candles.Raucous laughter spilled out toward them, and Ty steeled himself for what was to come.It had been a hundred years since their last encounter, longer since Ty had declared that he would rather serve in a respectable dynasty than scrape a living being his own master.He doubted Rogan would let him forget it.Ty turned his head to look slightly behind him at where Lily stood, head cocked, listening intently.Her hair was vibrant in the soft light, and her skin had a luminescent glow.Tiny lights danced in her eyes when she looked back at him.Gods, but she was beautiful.But then, there was a reason for that, wasn’t there? She carried a mark that threatened to change the rule of the dynasties, if it were truly that of the Mother.She was human, yes, but she carried high blood.Her very existence would cause an uproar—that is, if she was allowed to live.And after watching her tonight, he was less and less sure Arsinöe would permit that.His eyes dropped to her neck, where he noted with a pleasant little shock that she’d tied his ribbon once again.Guilt gnawed at him along with a sudden rush of desire.His ribbon.His woman.“Rogan will know you’re not my sura, Lily,” he said as gently as he could.Still, he reached out to finger the rich velvet of the ribbon, letting his fingertips brush against the pulse that beat at the base of her throat.It quickened at his touch, and immediately his mind was filled with thoughts of her naked beneath him, his teeth in her neck while he thrust madly inside of her.It was the height of vampire passion, and he knew it would be so good with her.Better than anything he’d ever dreamed in his long life.It took a great deal of effort to pull his hand away, to speak as though he had nothing on his mind but the matter at hand.“I can’t hide most of the truth from him.He’s got eyes and ears everywhere.”“I know,” Lily replied.“But this is a safe house, right? Other vampires are in and out of here.They don’t know who I am.All they’re going to know is that I’m not a vampire.So I thought we might as well keep up the pretense.I mean, unless that bothers you.”He saw the flash of vulnerability, and his guilt only increased.Of course, it had been on a steady rise since the immediate euphoria of having made love to her had worn off.Ever since Jaden had called him on his foolishness.“No, of course not,” Ty said, feeling his chest tighten.“You’re right.” Then he tried for a joke, wishing for anything to alleviate the almost suffocating need he felt for her.“Just try not to kill anyone or speak in tongues, and we should be good.”Lily snorted and gave him a smile.“I’m on it.”“Right, then,” Ty said, forcing his thoughts back to the very delicate matter at hand.“Rogan and I go back a long way.Don’t let him intimidate you, if he tries.And don’t let him grope you if he tries that either.The man’s a bastard, but a clever one, and he should be able to help us.”“Why can’t we just get in your car and take off?” she asked.“I wish.” Ty sighed.“But it’s far too late for that.You were… I mean, I was… I couldn’t be certain you were all right.You needed to be somewhere safe, and fast.The area was probably crawling with Dracul, even before the incident with you.They tend not to travel without backup.We won’t get out of here without Rogan’s help.He’ll know this city like the back of his hand.This isn’t my place, but it is his.”Her eyes narrowed.“And you’re sure we can trust him?”As though that mattered [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ]
