“Don’t be frightened.” She felt so good pressed against his bare chest. So real. “You’re strong. Trust your instincts.”
“But my screwed-up instincts tell me we need to stay together.”
“To accomplish what I’ve set out to do.”
She nodded against his neck and shivered. “Kill the Fallen.”
“And vampires, too.”
“The Sinistari were not part of your plan.”
“They are expected. When a Fallen walks the earth a Sinistari is dispatched. I don’t believe that’s the last we’ll encounter. Let’s get you inside to warm up.” He lifted her into his arms, and she allowed it.
“The way you looked at me,” she said. “It was …”
“I know. Do you have a spell against horny angels?”
She smirked and shook her head. “Just the one that traps you between wards I’ve placed in my home. But, Sam …?”
He stepped inside the stairwell and brushed aside the hair from her eyes. It felt like fine silk, too valuable to set a price to. “What is it?”
“If you did have sex with me while you were in that … form …” She winced and flashed a teary gaze at him. “Well, you know, would you try not to hurt me?”
“I will never hurt you. I vow it, because I will not again shift in your presence, demon or no demon.”
And that was all he could give her, because he didn’t know the truth himself.
Would spending more time with Cassandra build on the violent compulsion to attempt her? He must strive to remain true to his word. If he sensed the compulsion coming on, he would sooner take his own life than harm her. Yet who would save the world then?
And beyond the world, all he really wanted was to leave it and get back home.
