She shook her head, the move fierce. "Vilein is older than them. Stronger. He'll kill them."

Her hands gripped Rand's wrists. "I tracked you down because my only chance is to ruin myself for him. To lose my virginity to the most unacceptable person possible. A hunter." Her fingers brushed over his pounding pulse. "You."

Her words were a punch to the gut. She wanted him for his reputation. Because he was the best at killing her kind.

She wanted The Darkness, not the man.

He turned his hand around and broke her hold. "There must be another way. You should talk to the Paladins."

Surely the group of powerful vampires could help her. They took down unbalanced rogues, cleaned up any messes that bled into the human world.

Again she shook her head. "A risk I won't take. If something goes wrong..."

Damn. "You shouldn't have to open your legs for the worst hunter you can find." He wanted to yell the words, but he locked his jaw and fought to keep his voice even.

Her eyes flashed. "I'll do whatever I have to do to protect myself and those I love."

A part of Rand admired that. Dominique wasn't crying, wasn't playing the victim. She was sacrificing a part of herself to save her parents. "How do you know he won't hurt your family anyway?" "Because I'll make my ruination public." Her chin lifted. "If something were to happen to them, the court would look at Vilein."

There was a core of steel in this beautiful vampire. Rand knew then he'd help her. He'd keep her safe and together they'd find a solution that didn't involve her screwing a damned hunter--even if that hunter was him.

When someone showed her the delight of making love, it should be someone who cared about her, cherished her. Not a man drowning in blood and darkness.

"Come on, let's go."

Something bright ignited in her violet eyes. "You'll do it? You'll help me?"

"There's another way." There had to be. "You can stay at my place tonight. Tomorrow we'll figure something out."

He watched the light drain away. God, he felt like he'd kicked her. He settled onto his bike in front of her.

She shifted, slim arms wrapping around him, thighs hugging his and full breasts pressed against his back.

Rand closed his eyes for a second and fought for control. He'd spent enough time in the muck to recognize someone, even a vampire, who was untouched by it.

He was stained, his hands too rough, too bloody. Some part of him knew this woman deserved so much better than him.

He couldn't take Dominique to his bed. It would be a betrayal of everything he was, everything he fought for, of his father.

And not because she was a vampire.

Because she was innocent.
