Angelica lost herself in the heat of his wet lips. His mouth danced lazily over hers and she resisted the urge to grab him by the hair and kiss him deeper. That would lead him on which wasn't what she wanted. Or what did she actually want? She certainly didn't want him to stop kissing her. If she was sure that he would only kiss her then she wouldn't worry. Rayven pulled his lips away from hers and she almost groaned in frustration. He took a moment to study her face with that hot gaze that made her…-

Angelica sat in the library with a book in her hand but she didn't read a word. She just stared ahead while thinking about Lord Rayven. What happened to him this morning? She wouldn't be surprised by the way he acted if he hadn't been all sweet and romantic these days. She was after all used to rude Rayven even though he wasn't rude this morning. When he had changed she had expected him to stop being rude and not to change into this sweet and overly romantic man. Angelica was still surprised sometimes…

Lord Rayven nodded. "What else do you need?" "Nothing." "Are you done or should I wait some more?" "I am ready," she said. She looked behind him at the bed and then at him. No heart. Be still! But it didn't listen. Angelica cleared her throat as if trying to mute the sound of her wildly beating heart. She walked past him and went to bed. She curled under the blankets as if that would save her from this man. God, he was a demon. Nothing could save her from me. He had already told her she…

"She is yours, Angelica. You should name her," he said. "I know but you gave her to me. It will feel more special if you name her, so I can call her by the name you gave her." "I am not good with names," he said. "I disagree. I like the name you gave me." He smiled. "That is not a name," he said. Was he saying she was an angel? Lord Rayven looked thoughtfully at the mare while stroking her gently. "How about Love?" He asked. Love? He gifted her Love. "I like it very much," she…

Angelica didn't listen to a word that Lord Rayven read for her last night even though she loved his voice. After he ground his hips against hers like that her mind had shut down and something she never felt before awakened in her. It kept her from thinking about anything else than what her body felt. She looked at the empty bed beside her. Where did he go? And then she looked around his room. It was a mess after bringing all of her things and placing them just anywhere. Clearly, she would stay here from…

Rayven had heard bits and pieces of Angelica and William's conversation and the part about the mating bond stuck with him. She raised some valid questions which he hadn't explained clearly. Maybe because he already knew there would be no mating between them anytime soon and didn't stress the matter. Unlike other human demon mates, they didn't get the chance to spend a lot of time together and do some real bonding before mating. She was right. The mating would do no magic. It would only act as a seal to…

Having his blood? Would it have the same effect on demons? Wait! That could be another reason why the shades would want the blood. Maybe it was used to hurt demons. But that argument wasn't the strongest. Constantine was a powerful shade and could fight most demons unless he had a very strong enemy he wanted to defeat. Maybe an archdemon. Skender wasn't sure anymore. "You don't want to do it?" William looked sad. Skender knew the boy really wanted answers to protect his sister and he wanted to…

Angelica sat in the garden with Skender feeling a bit nervous. Telling a man who wasn't her husband that she had a dream about him wasn't the most comfortable situation, besides all the history they had together. So he was a demon too, and what she had seen in her dreams was indeed a memory. She remembered how broken he looked when he had lost his parents and how sad he looked when the red-haired woman told him they couldn't be together. "Thank you for taking your time to bring my brother here and…

"What is wrong then?" William asked. She sighed. "I saw doubt in his eyes when he said so." "You think he lied to you?" "No. I don't know. I think maybe he just wants to believe it so badly. I am not sure." William had already discovered this when he was here. Lord Rayven was honest but his honesty wasn't always reliable since he believed in his own lies and only saw the truth that he wanted to see. "Do you trust him?" William asked. Angelica became thoughtful. If she had to think then…

"How do you interpret your dreams?" The king asked. "I usually need to have a dream about a certain thing more than once before I can interpret it. The interpretation is something that happens naturally. It is not something I necessarily know but my brain somehow does," he explained. There were things in his mind that he just knew without ever learning. "Does it mean you will have more of this dream and you will get more answers?" "Probably." The King looked concerned about him but tried to…
