TREYTON

I can hear people walking around outside the bedroom door. They're calling my name, searching for me, probably wondering where I've gone and why I left the great ball so abruptly. Thankfully, everyone in the clan knows better than to open a closed door inside the den, whether it's unlocked or not.

But right now, all that I want to do is continue lying in this bed, completely satisfied for what feels like the first time in my life, and cradle Blair in my arms as her cheek rests upon my chest. Making love to her unlocked all the feelings I haven't voiced or named. And now that I've laid with her, there is no going back. I can't shove my feelings for her back into an empty chest. I crave her, the need blooming uncontrollably in my chest like an overgrown garden under the hot sun. I want to tell her how I feel, but I don't want to do anything that could interrupt this moment of bliss.

"I can tell them that I enchanted your eyes," she says quietly, like she's picking up a conversation we started before.

"What?"

"I can tell everyone that since you're the host of this party, I gifted give you an enchantment of your choosing. Since so many people have seen and complemented the magic I used on my own look tonight, they won't question whether I could give you glowing eyes."

It's a smart response to the prying questions that will undoubtedly crop up once we return to the party, which I know we will need to do soon.

"That's a good solution. Thank you for thinking of it," I say.

She sighs deeply and I already know what she's thinking without having to ask. She doesn't want to return to the party, and neither do I. I want to stay up here with her for the rest of the night and into the wee hours of the morning. I want to make love to her again and again, because that lust is building in me again already. I don't want this to be over yet. And I don't want to go back to being the clan leader and for Blair to go back to being just a guest at my party.

But I know that the longer we stay holed-up here together, the more questions we'll have to answer. And we've put together too intricately balanced of a scheme to have any leeway for letting things slide.

I kiss her on the temple, then bend my chin and drag my lips across her silken hair, which glows even brightly now than before we made love. Then, we both reluctantly get up and gather our clothes. There's a mutual and unspoken understanding that we're both enamored with each other and want to devour each other more. But we both feel the burden of my new responsibility as clan leader. We have to return to the party.

Just before we leave the room, looking more tousled than before, Blair pauses to ask me a question.
