When she swooped up another bottle, Lachlain gave a quick, tight nod. “Verra well.”

As he closed the door behind him, he thought that not doing exactly as he pleased in his own home was going to take some getting used to.

When he spotted the priceless mirror she’d broken, he remembered it had been at Kinevane for centuries and could’ve been the oldest one extant anywhere. He shrugged. At least she was getting her strength back.

For fifteen minutes, he prowled the hallway. As he listened in the unlikely case that she called for him, he wondered how to coax her to drink again. If his blood made her stronger, then she needed a surfeit of it.

He’d see that she had it.

She was angry, wanting to return to her family, and he understood her need. But there was no way he could send her home. And going with her? When he could never hurt any of them, even to defend himself?

He regretted having to be so hard with her, knowing how much she’d been through, but there wasn’t anytime for this.

When he returned to their room, she was showered—and dressed as though to go outside. “What do you think you’re doing?” he snapped. “You need to be in bed.”

“Going out. You told me it was safe.”

“Of course it is, and I’ll take you out—”

“The whole point is to get away from you. You might be able to keep me here for four more nights, but it doesn’t mean I have to spend them with you.”

He took her elbow. “Then you’ll drink first.”

She gave his hand a withering glare. “Let go of me.”

“You’re going to drink, Emma!” he bellowed.

“Get bent, Lachlain!”she screamed back at him, wrenching her arm away. When he caught her once more, she struck out so fast it was a blur. He barely caught her palm before it cracked across his face.
