  His arms locked around her. He pulled her close, right between his legs as they hung over the edge of the table. His mouth was feverish on hers, his hands seeming to touch her everywhere.

  “Missed you…” Jamie growled the words against her lips. Then his head rose. He stared at her with the eyes of a beast in the face of a man. “You’re…giving us a chance?”

  She had to shake her head, and when she did, pain flashed in his gaze. Iona spoke quickly, desperate to make him understand as she said, “No, Jamie, I’m giving us more than a chance.” Her shoe crunched over the remains of the knife. “I want to give us forever.”

  His hands tightened around her. “Be…sure.”

  “I’ve never been more sure of anything.” Or anyone. He’d been willing to suffer such torture, for her.

  And she’d seen more of Jamie’s secrets in her dreams.

  Him, watching her with not just lust, but longing.

  Him…rushing through the day and night as he tracked her to LA, desperate to find her before Latham got to her.

  She’d seen a wolf run until his paws had bled. Watched through his eyes as Jamie drove a truck like a madman until he’d arrived outside the dark walls of her old home. She’d felt his fear…until he’d seen her.

  Her lips brushed over his once more. He’d woken her up, but not just from Latham’s spell. He’d given her life again.

  He’d given her love, and it was exactly what she wanted. No, he was what she wanted now.

  Not because they had to be together.

  “Because anything else is unthinkable,” she whispered. And it was. Her body and soul had ached for him. She needed him. Couldn’t imagine going another single day without her werewolf.

  The door squeaked closed behind them, and she knew that Sean had grabbed the witch and gotten out of there.

  Good.

  Because the Blood Queen had finally found her werewolf king, and she wasn’t letting him go.

  Not now. Not ever.

  Some bonds weren’t meant to be broken.

  “Forever,” Jamie said against her lips. A demand.

  Her werewolf had just spoken true…some bonds really were meant to last forever.

  They kissed again. She tasted the wildness of his beast. The love of the man.

  Forever.

  And Cynthia Eden’s next full-length paranormal romance novel, ANGEL BETRAYED, will take readers into a world of dangerous, sexy fallen angels, demons, and vampires. When you betray an angel, there really is all hell to pay…

  ANGEL BETRAYED

  Sammael–call him Sam–was an angel once. An Angel of Death. But the dispassionate, watch-from-above thing just wasn’t working for him when it meant watching evil torture innocent souls day in and day out. It might have cost him his wings, but these days he gets to apply the direct method on the bad guys. Problem is, what’s making his life difficult is a bad girl…

  Seline O’Shaw needs protection, and with the hounds of hell on her tail, she’s not going to quibble too hard about where she gets it. Sam’s virtue is questionable, but he’s smoking hot, massively powerful, and owes her a favor. So what if she’s getting a little case of angel lust? There are some damn deadly sins after her hide…

  Excerpt from ANGEL BETRYAED (Available 06/26/12, in print and e-book, from Kensington Brava):

  “So you need protection.” His stare narrowed on her. “What, exactly, does that mean?” He paused. “Do you need a guard? Someone to watch over you? Or…” His left hand rose. His fingers curved under her cheek and his thumb brushed over her lips. Her breath caught, and her heart raced in her chest. “Do you want me to kill someone for you, Seline?”

  Killing would be easy for him. Sometimes, she worried it might become too easy for her. “I-I don’t know what do to. I’ve been hiding, and I thought I was safe, but they found me.”

  “They?” His right hand still cradled her thigh and seemed to scorch her flesh.

  “His friends. They know what I did, and they aren’t the kind of men you can just walk away from.” She let fear seep into her voice. The better to sound weak. Such a lie. “They’re dangerous, Sam, and they’ve got a lot of power.”

  His gaze searched hers. Then his mouth dipped close to hers. Seline stopped breathing. He was going to kiss her and her hormones would go wild. Control. She had to stay in—

  He didn’t kiss her. He smiled. And dammit, she’d actually been pressing up on her toes to get closer to him.

  Heat stained her cheeks. I don’t blush. But she was—or rather, she’d started blushing since she met Sam. He made her too uncomfortable.

  “What makes you think I’m the kind of man who offers protection?”

  She didn’t think he’d give her protection. She wasn’t a fool. He wasn’t the protecting kind.

  He was the killing kind.

  She wet her lips and felt the tension mount in his body. “I know what you are.” Half-truth. She knew what he wasn’t. She was still working on the rest. Out of a thousand possibilities, she’d narrowed down the choices to a top five list—and nothing on that list was good.

  “And what’s that?”

  Now this was the dangerous part. If she’d calculated wrong, he could attack her. Good thing she wasn’t very easy to kill. “You’re not human.” This she knew with absolute certainty. Demons didn’t play guard bitch to humans. The food chain didn’t work that way.

  No change of expression crossed his face. But his head came closer to hers and his lips—why would that cruel edge be sexy?—pressed against her mouth. She expected the kiss to be hard and rough. What else? But when his mouth took hers, it was just…a taste.

  His tongue licked her lips and stroked inside her mouth. Slow. Easy. As if he were sampling her.

  Her tongue slipped to meet his. To taste. To want.

  Sam.

  When he pulled back, she had to fight to keep her hands off him. Or rather, she had to fight not to yank the guy back and take a lot more from him. Dangerous.

  His gaze studied her a moment, and she barely dared to breathe. “I’m not human,” he finally agreed, his voice a deep rumble. “But neither are you, sweetheart. Neither are you.”
