CHAPTER SEVEN

Chastity

I FALL ASLEEP in his arms, but I awake alone. When I rise from the bed, I find him preparing supper and the lamp has been lit. My cloak, which I left draped over the chair, is once more hung up beside the door.

I feel shy until he turns and bestows me the most wicked of smiles. “Are you hungry?”

My blush is spontaneous and spreads all the way from my cheeks to my chest.

His gaze lowers to my nipples, which are always erect. He stops what he is doing and moves towards me, hooves thudding against the compacted earth of his home. On reaching me, he lifts me up and, as is his custom, sits me upon the table, though my new and most beautiful chair sits beside it.

“Thank you kindly for my new chair,” I say shyly. “I apologize that I did not thank you when you first arrived.”

“I think you thanked me perfectly,” he says, winking, and places a great bowl beside me full of sugar snap peas to be prepared.

“I am not hungry,” I admit.

He chuckles. “I dare say you are not. For the first time since we met, I am utterly drained. My greedy, loving little maiden has consumed every drop.”

I giggle, snapping a pea in half and stuffing it into my mouth as though to make a lie of my words. He chuckles again, returning his attention to his task.

“Best I eat the lion’s share of this, for I will need to keep my strength up if you intend to drain me every day, but this is natural. This is the way of bonding between centaurs and humans.”

Bonding? Yes, I like that very much.

I also like sitting here, though I now have a seat. I like it because Axton put me here, and because I can admire his beautiful body…and cock…as he gathers the things for supper. As I stuff another sugar snap pea into my mouth, I muse that I am a poor example of an indebted maiden, given he prepares supper as often as not!

I giggle. He turns around and bestows me a stern glare that I think is not stern at all.

But then my amusement fades, and the pea I have just eaten becomes an unsettled lump in my belly.

He stops immediately and approaches me, easing my thigh open so that he may draw in close and tip up my chin.

“You are troubled again, my maiden?”

“I heard about the war,” I blurt out. “Between the centaurs and the bear shifters.”

His face softens, and he leans in to kiss me. “Who told you about that?” Then his eyes narrow. “Peter,” he says in a way that does not bode well for the young centaur lad.

“I asked him,” I say quickly. “And I want to know. I want to be part of what is happening.”

He draws me into his arms and holds me tightly. I breathe, finding comfort from his scent and his warm flesh against mine. How is it possible for him to have come to mean so much to me so quickly?

“You are right,” he says.
