Chapter Eleven

Eve

I’m wrapped in the warmest blanket, and for the first time in forever, I feel safe. It’s this unusual feeling that makes my eyes pop open, and they immediately find Korva’s face.

His eyes are closed. Huh. He’s such a threat, and my body is so aware of him at every moment, that I almost forgot that he needs sleep just like the rest of us.

I’ve had insomnia since my mom died. For whatever reason, I’m able to sleep around Korva, and I’m not quite sure how I feel about that.

Liam used to complain at my tossing and turning, finally suggesting that I see a therapist. Who knew that what I really needed was a seven-foot Arcav clutching me to him like I’m his snuggle bunny?

I snort softly, and Korva’s eyes open, immediately finding mine.

I wiggle against him, but he doesn’t let me go and I feel him stir to life against me.

“Korva,” I say warningly, but he takes my mouth and my lady parts immediately come to life, my breasts aching for his hands.

I push away. “I need a moment.”

He nods and finally lets me go, and I hightail it to the bathroom where I take care of business and splash water on my face. I’ve got to get it together. Having sex with Korva was bad enough. Once was a mistake. Twice is a pattern. But actually sleeping next to him all night? That’s a recipe for a broken heart.

“Stupid, stupid, stupid.”

“Are you well?”

“I’m fine.” I open the door and Korva moves back to give me some space. “Don’t you have somewhere to be?”

He slowly shakes his head. “Today I will spend time with you.”

“Uh, you don’t just get to decide that, buddy.”

Arcav. They’re all the same.

He looks confused for a moment, and my heart thumps louder in my chest. His hair is tousled, the gouge in his horn obvious in the sunlight, and his eyes have a bleary, just-asleep look, even as they turn calculating.

“We will bargain.”

“No thanks.”

“There is something that you want.”

“I want lots of things.”

“You would like to return to Harlow’s guard.” His mouth firms as if he doesn’t like the idea, and I narrow my eyes at him.

“I’m listening.”

“You still owe me dinner,” he says, holding up a hand as my mouth drops open. “If you agree to also spend the day with me, I will talk to Varian and ask for a concession. Perhaps he will agree to cut your suspension short by a few days.”

I glower at him but don’t immediately refuse. Korva hates Varian with the fire of a thousand suns. I’m pretty sure he wouldn’t piss on his brother if he was on fire. For him to offer that bargain to me is a big deal.

“Why would Varian play ball?”

He looks confused for a moment and then his face clears.

“Varian and Harlow must go to Fecax. He needs people he trusts close to Harlow. He will bargain with me.”

I feel like he’s not telling me something, and I narrow my eyes at him.
