Chapter 8

Later that evening, Christoff stepped out of the shower in the guest bedroom. He stared moodily at the large bed. The large, empty bed, he thought with regret.

“I’m not happy about it either,” he grumbled when his dragon snorted in disgust.

“Christoff, I thought you might like to wear… Oh, my,” Edna whispered, standing in the doorway staring at Christoff’s nearly naked body. A soft groan escaped her. “There ought to be a law against men your age looking this good.”

Christoff turned when he heard Edna. A slow, sexy grin curled his lips. He raised an eyebrow and his fingers moved to the towel wrapped around his waist. He wasn’t above playing dirty if it would keep him from having to spend one more day in his long life alone.

“Are those for me?” He asked innocently as he started to loosen the towel where it was tucked in against his flat stomach.

“Don’t… Don’t you dare!” Edna hissed in a slightly hoarse voice. “Christoff, you wouldn’t… Oh, damn, you would!”

Christoff let the towel he was wearing fall to the floor. He was so turned on, that the towel wouldn’t have covered his desire anyway. Besides, Edna might as well know the effect she was having on him.

“It is warm in here,” he replied, stepping closer to her. “The only thing that would keep me warmer was if I had you next to me.”

He saw Edna swallow, her gaze glued to his arousal. A wicked grin curved his lips when he felt his cock react to her appraisal and jerk upward. The low hiss that escaped her showed that she wasn’t immune to his body.

“You are very…,” she started to say, forcing her eyes up his body until they collided with his dark gold ones. “You did that on purpose.”

Christoff chuckled and stepped closer. “Yes, I have decided I’ve spent enough of my life alone. I do not wish to be alone ever again.” His voice softened and he grew serious as he reached up to touch her cheek. “A true mate is a gift from the Goddess, Edna. A warrior knows when he has found his.”

“How? How can you be sure?” She asked, staring up at him.

He ran his hand down her arm and lifted her wrist so she could see one of the gold bracelets wrapped around her wrists. He leaned down and pressed a kiss along the edge of it. His eyes darkened when he felt her pulse jump.

“All three parts of a Valdier warrior must accept a female for her to be his true mate. My symbiot has claimed you. It would not have given you these if it had not. My dragon claws at me to bite you. And, I… Since you fell into my arms early this morning, I have not been able to resist touching you. This is a gift, Edna, one that I will fight for.”

Edna’s eyes closed for a moment before she opened them. Pulling away, she turned and walked over to the dresser, setting the sweat pants that she had found down on the dresser.
