CHAPTER ELEVEN

Blayze felt dizzy. Or maybe she was giddy.

Hard to tell, since she had zero actual experience with desire.

What she did know was that the quicker she could kill the treacherous servant who intended to curse her, the quicker she could drag Char into a private room and lock the door.

She wanted to fully explore the sensations that were scorching through her body. And she wanted to make sure that the next time Char kissed her there was nothing to stop him from continuing with his seduction.

Or maybe she would seduce him.

It couldn’t be that hard to figure out, could it?

The warm giddiness continued to flow through her body as Char steered her down a separate hallway that led away from the more formal area of the lair. It felt glorious, or at least it did until she noticed the tension that was humming around Char as he walked beside her.

Turning her head, she met his brooding gaze. “Is something wrong?”

He paused before abruptly speaking. “Am I the first?”

She blinked, not entirely sure what he was asking. “What do you mean?”

“Am I the first male to kiss you?”

“Oh.” She blinked in surprise. It was a strange question, considering that he had to know she’d been cursed when she was just a hatchling. “Yes, you’re the first.”

Another brooding glance. “Are you sorry?”

“Why would I be sorry?”

His hands balled into fists, as if he was struggling to contain some fierce emotion.

“You’ve pointed out that I’m a half-breed more than once.”

She frowned. She’d pointed out he was a half-breed because he was a half-breed. Why would that bother him?

It took several seconds before she at last realized that he’d mistakenly assumed she considered his mixed heritage to be a bad thing.

She came to a halt. She could already catch the scent of fairies and vampires and even goblins that seeped through the air. Which meant the servants’ quarters was just ahead.

Right now, however, she was more interested in Char’s idiotic belief that she cared about his pedigree.

“I’ve spent centuries locked away from the world,” she reminded him. “It allowed me to concentrate on what was important. And what was stupid.”

His studied her face, as if searching for some hidden meaning in her words. “So what’s important?”

She didn’t even have to think about it. “Loyalty. Trust. Devotion.”

Fire briefly danced over his skin. Blayze’s heart missed a beat at the beauty of the silvery flames.

“Yes,” he breathed.

She smiled. She liked the dazed look on his face. Just as much as she liked the knowledge that she’d put it there.

She tilted her head to the side, sending him a coy glance. Or at least she hoped it was coy. She might just look ridiculous.

“You didn’t ask what I thought was stupid,” she told him.

His eyes smoldered, the flames continuing to halo his body. “I’m afraid.”

She allowed her fingers to brush up his arm, savoring the feel of his dragon-fire.

“I think it’s stupid to waste your days pursuing power and riches.” She answered the question he refused to ask.
