Even with the dangerous aura surrounding her now, Jemima was still acutely aware of the love Tahlia was emitting. She lifted her fingers to her lips and then placed them against Tahlia's.

“I want to remember everything tomorrow, ok.” She laid back and closed her eyes.

Chapter 15

Looking down at a sleeping Jemima, Tahlia planted a soft kiss on the smooth forehead. At last Jemima was hers. It had never taken her so long to convince any of the others. She smiled faintly.

Except for one other…

Neve.

The McGregor was a stubborn 16 th century Scottish clan chief. Even after she'd revealed herself to Neve, the woman had still looked at her with doubt in her brilliant blue eyes. It was only after she had taken her to bed and put all the memories in practice that the woman had fully accepted her and welcomed their love.

But Neve had died prematurely, thrown from her horse during a wild boar hunt. Buried deep in her earthy cradle under Neve's castle, Tahlia's was locked in her body, unable to rush to her love's side during the daylight hours. That night she'd awaken with a blood-chilling howl, rushing to Neve's bedside where she'd lain in coma. Although others could not hear her responses, but blending their souls, Tahlia could converse with her ruler of her heart. Neve was in a coma for three day, barely enough time for them to say their goodbyes and to kiss for the last time. Neve had promised that she would return one day and looking down at the sleeping face of Jemima, Tahlia nodded. Neve did return. Tahlia easily recognized her spirit for Jemima was just as strong-willed and stubborn as Neve.

With one last kiss to Jemima's cheek, she quietly left Jemima's room and headed for the lounge, once again donning her Vampire Queen persona. She won't be seeing Jemima for the rest of the evening, but the knowledge that she was safe was good enough for her. She'd placed Jemima under a deep sleep compulsion which will see her sleep for at twelve hours to help her psyche process the night's revelations.

Her heart warmed at the thought that the next time they see each other, Jemima will know her as her lover, the only woman who knows her inside out and who can command her body with one look.

She stopped for a brief moment outside the lounge where the other Royal Clan members were gathered to clear her mind of Jemima. She can't afford to be distracted at a time like this, especially not against a crafty foe like Drake. He wasn't a great fighter, but underestimating him, could have fatal consequences. He didcome up with the plan to convert and kill Jemima all by himself, after all. That alone made him dangerous.

She had taken him under her wing five centuries ago and had trained the fledgling patiently, treating him like a son. But Drake had other plans. He wanted it all. Power, respect and the thrill of the kill.
