Chapter 7

After two weeks in solitude, sequestered in Laken’s room and quiet areas, Caine decided Honor could be introduced to the coven. Her bruising was still a bit blotchy but not too much of a concern. She had been going outside regularly and loved how the sun darkened her skin to what Laken referred to as a golden tan. Caine had given her a pair of the strange foot coverings with the strap between her toes, and she kept tripping over them and decided her feet would toughen up eventually—they did, and so she went barefoot.

Honor gripped Laken’s arm in a death hold as they stood in the huge room Laken had taken her to for dinner. It was easily five times the size of the main room of her ice dwelling. Sunlight shone from huge open windows. Wonderful smells permeated the air. There were many vampires dressed in black; Laken explained that was how she could tell vampire from human: all were male, all with dark as night hair. They were a stunning sight. Most of them were staring at her. Honor had met a few, but the entire room was filled with them. She was relieved to see Tavish and Caine; she had grown to like and trust both men.

During the two weeks of isolation, Laken had shown her the most entertaining, albeit frightening, sights. He had held her tight when she cried during the terrible storms that had thankfully lessened. His touch was growing bolder but not demanding. Honor shivered thinking of his thumbs trailing down her throat to linger at the tips of her breasts. He had kissed her forehead and cheeks occasionally and it was beyond pleasant. Irritatingly, when her heart began to pound he always stopped what he was doing.

Laken’s patience superseded any other person’s Honor had ever known. She found solace in Laken’s warm, comforting, safe bed; it was a far cry from the cold lonely furs she had grown up with. She slept nude beside him in his bed and not once had he demanded she try the sex thing. She knew he wanted to; it was a feeling she had, but he seemed to be waiting for something. It was wonderful to have him near in this strange new place; Honor didn’t feel so alone when he was with her. Laken made her feel important; he cared what she was thinking.

At first, Honor had been apprehensive lying naked in Laken’s arms, even though he remained in undergarments he called briefs; but with the storms, more often than not she found her body curled close to him. His hard form was a comfort in the open atmosphere that now ruled her world. If the roof were to be ripped off, she knew Laken would keep her safe. There were no ice chasms to fall into; Laken had explained she wouldn’t fall into the sky and stars weren’t humans trying to gain attention. Laken was the smartest man she had ever met, he was all-powerful and strove for her to realize it—she did, and the idea was wonderful.
