Eric sat right behind Donna for the entire show. He alternated between anger and hurt. She’d run from him. Hurt? Human females didn’t have the power to hurt him. But whatever the emotion was, it bothered him. He tried to pull his sense of self-worth around him—the knowledge that he wielded immense power, that he’d lived for centuries before Donna was born and would live centuries more after she died. Right. Now he was depressed.

She didn’t turn around to look at him once, but he could feel her emotions—a mix of unease, curiosity, and . . . yes, desire. He smiled for the first time since he’d entered the dungeon to find Taurin there. If she still desired him, then he had something to work with.He’d spoken to her once. Right before she went on the air, he’d leaned close and then frowned when she flinched away from him. Trying to ignore the twinge he was positive couldn’t be hurt, he’d asked if she was going to tell her listeners about what had happened. She hadn’t answered, just shook her head. He’d been slow to draw away from her. Her scent of lavender and warm vital woman was a giant sensual suction cup.

Finally. Her show was over. Now he’d ask her—

Donna turned to look at him. “I want something to eat. Keep me company. We have to talk.” Nothing she said sounded negotiable. Nothing in her expression said friendly.

“Great.” Eric wasn’t complaining. Things could’ve gotten ugly if she’d given her audience a blow by blow account of her evening. Worse yet, she could be on a plane back to New York. Now, that thought scared him on a whole other level.

Once seated in the restaurant, she stared across the table at him, her expression unreadable. She’d dressed starkly professional for the show in a black skirt and jacket. Probably going all civilized to give her the courage to face the unspeakable evil. He scowled.

Calmly she ordered a steak and baked potato, but he noticed her hand had a slight tremor as she picked up her knife. Score one for the unspeakable evil. If you were going to scare the crap out of humans, make sure you did it right. Did that thought make him feel better? No. He pulled a slightly flattened Snickers bar from his jeans pocket.

She paused in the process of cutting her steak to stare at the Snickers bar. Then she laughed. Sure, the laugh sounded a little hysterical, but he was pathetically happy to hear any kind of laugh.

“What?” He took a bite from the candy bar and tried to shove away thoughts of what he’d rather be doing with his mouth.

“You’re eating a Snickers bar?” The laughter had faded to a few chuckles.

“Yeah. I was going to ask the chef to send out the blood from your steak in a wineglass, but I didn’t want to gross you out.” He was lying, but a dark need he didn’t understand wanted to see if she’d turn from him in disgust, expected her to turn from him in disgust.
