Galen has been outside my aunt and uncle’s condo for three nights in a row. He doesn’t try to contact me. He doesn’t even look at me when I’m at the window. He stares at the street in front of the house, focused and determined. It’s as if he’s guarding me. Because he thinks I’m his possession, or because he’s afraid someone will hurt me, I don’t know. I’ve got to give him credit, he’s persistent.

These last few days have given me a lot of time to think. I’m in such uncharted territory with the whole vampire thing, not to mention Sariel. I start to question my resolve. Galen has said he’s never known he could feed and not kill his … victim. Does that mean I’m special, or has he finally realized he’s got another choice when it comes to his survival? Because when I look at it from a survival standpoint, I begin to understand. Humans have to kill to eat, unless we’re vegetarians. Galen doesn’t have another food source.

I sigh as I stare out the window at him. It’s raining, but he doesn’t seem to care. He stands watch over me, unmoving. Against my better judgment, I tap on the window pane, and his gaze snaps up to mine. The heat in his gaze sends a wave of arousal over me. Why do I want him so much? I crook a finger to indicate he can come inside.

He’s knocking on the front door in an instant, and I can’t keep the excitement from humming through my body. My fingers are shaking in anticipation as I unlock the dead bolt and pull open the door. There’s a sexy smile on his gorgeous lips. It makes my knees weak and my heart flutter.

“Can’t live without me, I see,” he says.

I let out a little disbelieving laugh. “I was feeling sorry for you. I can leave you out there all night again if you’d rather.”

I start to close the door, but he stops me with a hand. “No. I’d really rather not.”

“Okay, then. You can come in, but no—” He silences me with his mouth on mine, wiping away my warning to keep his hands to himself.

Why did I want him to stop kissing me again? I can’t really remember. I know he’s bad for me, but he feels so right. When he releases me, his focus remains trained on my lips.

“You were saying?”

“Funny business,” I mutter, finishing my sentence, still slightly breathless.

“I don’t think it’s funny at all.”

He leans in, and I back away, trying to tame my libido, which is screaming at me.

“Like I said, no funny business. This is my bubble.” I indicate my area of personal space. “Stay out of my bubble. That means no kissing, no touching, and, most definitely no sex.”

His mouth turns down in a frown, and I have to work hard to control my gasp when his brown eyes flash the silvery gray of Sariel. He takes a deep breath, and when he looks at me again, his irises are the warm brown I’ve been dreaming of for the last few days.
