“Why did you take me?” 

“Because you’re valuable to me,” he replied, his dark and dangerous voice brushing against my skin in ways that made my heart race and my core ache.

“I don’t belong to you or any man,” I replied, trembling as I held my ground.

“Who said I was a man?”

Love often finds us in the most mysterious of ways, and these two enemies are brought together to navigate a way to earn their freedom. 

Will they be able to put aside their differences for love?

Or is the tragedy of Thane’s past too much to forget?

Lust of a Dragon

Thane seemed distracted for the remaining duration of dinner. Part of me was happy he wasn’t asking any more questions. The rum had loosed my inhibitions, and I shared more than I wanted to. 


I felt thankful he conceded, giving me some privacy to get dressed for bed. I undid the sash around my waist, dropping the crimson fabric against the headboard.

A shiver ran down my spine. My skin became hot to the touch. I brushed Thane’s words from my mind.


I kicked off my shoes, keeping my socks on. After unclipping the buttons on the front of the leathered pants, I pushed them off. Instantly, I felt more comfortable. I climbed beneath the furs, suddenly bombarded with his scent. The mouthwatering scent of musk and brine. 


I ignored the erotic stroke between my thighs. 


I’ve slept in Thane’s bed once in only a shirt.
