Chapter Twenty-Six

Embarrassed

Though Tirah’s head throbbed mercilessly, a languid warmth and feeling of security pervaded her as she slowly woke up. Then her heart thumped hard and began to race as she grew aware of how she lay snuggled against a very warm body. A steel arm cradled her close. What the—? Her eyes opened and she stared at the light dusting of hair across Saber’s chest as it rose and fell in a steady rhythm.

She winced in embarrassment as memories of the night before suddenly flooded her. Horrified, heat licked through her body. Thank all the realms Saber was asleep and couldn’t see how bright red her face must be. What had I been thinking? With a silent groan, she attempted to inch away, wanting to put distance between them. The moment she moved, the arm holding her tightened. Tirah stilled and considered her options.

She needed to get out of here and on her way to meet Mihel. She was running out of time. Besides, it was clear Saber didn’t believe what she said about his brother.

Wow, the Ilyium sure had fucked up by attacking the Thorn sons. Mihel had told her that the dragon hunting her had found everyone from that night and had brutally killed them. Tirah should feel bad about that, but she didn’t. What they’d done had been horrible, vile, and as far as she was concerned, they deserved whatever it was Saber did to them. She only hoped he hadn’t been too swift in his punishment.

Then she remembered that she was not a guest, but rather a captive, and though surprised to be still alive, wondered what he’d do to her. Then she thought of Saber in all his glory while showering, and a wave of heat shot straight to her core. So, he was attracted to her as well. Except, really, she couldn’t count on that saving her life.

Ever so slowly, Tirah attempted to lift the arm around her. Saber mumbled and pulled her closer. Shit. She burned for him and it didn’t help that she wasn’t wearing any clothing. Her face flamed as she thought of where his finger had been the night before. Oh, holy mites. She’d been so close to finally experiencing sex, although that hadn’t been how she wanted her first time to go.

At first, she was grateful Saber didn’t want her. Yet the longer Tirah thought about it, she wondered why. Maybe she was completely wrong, and she was just a warm body. Maybe he wasn’t attracted to her at all. After all, she had heard how most of the Thorn sons were huge womanizers. What did she know? She was a virgin. Still, maybe she just wasn’t his type, she was a little large after all. Although, many other males had tried to get into her pants over the years. If she hadn’t been a trained fighter, she’d have lost her virginity long ago—and not willingly.

Tirah bit her lip and held still, staring at Saber. At least he wasn’t hard to look at.
