What is he saying to her?
As soon as I thought the words, Ressi turned to me.
I froze.
This is a dream. How can she see me?
Terror pulsed with the rapid beating of my nervous heart.
Calm down. This is only a dream.
Ressi formed her burning lips into a smile and continued to watch me as Ambi talked to Camille. Strands of flames swayed back and forth around Ressi’s head. Coppery-colored skin covered her.
Bright symbols marked her flesh and looked just like the ones Camille now wore on her body.
Ressi nodded at me and directed her attention to Camille.
Suddenly, a booming came from the door.
“Xander!” Leeta yelled, “We have a problem!”
Women screaming burst from the other side of the door.
What is going on?
The dream vanished.
Camille rolled over and faced me, rubbing her eyes.
The fear from Ressi’s peculiar look aimed at me in the dream had not gone away.
In fact, the fear heightened to dread as Camille’s face shifted from relaxed to terror.
Our gazes met.
Through my eyes I tried to show her how sorry I was, how much I’d regretted forcing the claim.
Her scared expression transformed to a glare.
I stepped back.
“Xander!” Leeta knocked at the door again.
I sneered. “Yes!”
“I need to talk to you now. We have a problem.”
Problem?
I doubted it. No one knew the way to my sewers but Ty, Victoria, Leeta, and me.
Being that Ty and Victoria were dead, I didn’t figure anybody else would dive into the area for a surprise attack.
Granted, the Quiet King may find out about my destruction to his castle and freeing of dominas by tomorrow’s dusk.
Many guards had fled.
The sound of horses stomping away could be heard all night.
I was confident one of those horses carried a messenger to my father.
I’d have two days to battle him and was no longer scared. Since maturing into this new form, the idea of killing another king tasted sweet on my tongue.
Weeks ago I would have pissed myself at the thought.
Now I yearned for it.
“Xander?” Leeta banged again.
“We’re coming, Leeta.” Camille sat up. Her luscious breasts jiggled.
I grunted.
Her brown nipples hardened from the sound.
“You don’t plan on opening the door naked, do you?” She folded a sheet around her and headed to the door. “Why don’t you focus on covering yourself?”
I read her thoughts.
His cock is so big. How will it feel?
She snuck a glance.
I peered further in her head and saw what she saw. My image in her mind.
It might hurt me.
She shuddered.
“Only pleasure would come.” Blood rushed to my cock, readying it for her. I longed to lay my queen down and push inside her moist pussy.
“Xander. . .cover yourself.”
“Why?”
“We have an emergency.” She bit her lip and rose from the bed.
“Come here.”
She went over to the door. “No.”
“Now, queen.”
“You are becoming insane.”
Am I?
Camille waited by the door with her hand on the knob. “Put some clothes on.”
Fast, I closed the distance between us and pressed my cock against the curve of her succulent ass. “No. We can talk to Leeta through the door.”
“Stop.” She tried to slip away.
I seized her waist to stop her. “I’m so sorry.”
“You don’t get to touch me anymore.”
I held my growl in. The deep animal sound lodged in my throat. My fangs exploded out of my mouth, but luckily her back was still to me, so she couldn’t see.
I pushed my way into her head.
I just need him to calm down. He’s scaring me.
Frowning, I backed away.
Camille sighed and cracked the door open. “What’s wrong, Leeta?”
“You look better and you’re up,” Leeta said.
“What do you want?!” I asked through clenched teeth. My cock begged to be closer to Camille, to have me rub the throbbing tip against her. I imagined kneeling down behind her, parting her ass with my hands, and licking that sweet pussy from behind.
Hot flesh would surround my tongue.
Her arousal would pour down around me and I’d lap it up.
“Ian is our friend.” Camille shrugged. “If he says he was trapped in a room with dominas, I believe him.”
Leeta’s voice rushed out in a strained tone. “But he’s demanding to see you.”
“Ian? What about Ian?” Claws ripped through my fingertips.
“Did you not hear a word?” Camille glanced over her shoulder. Her gaze snapped to my hand as I caressed the head of my cock.
Hold on. When did I grab it? I don’t remember touching myself.
I released my cock. “I didn’t hear anything.”
“Get sex off of your mind, Xander.”
The muscle in my jaw twitched. My groin heated. For an odd reason, the more she fought me, the more I yearned to fuck her.
Lust rippled through me. “I’m fine.”
Camille turned back to the cracked open doorway. “Leeta, tell the guards to stop pointing their swords at Ian and let him into our room.”
Part of me was thrilled she said our room.
The other part plummeted into rage at the thought of Ian, another vampire king, so close to her.
