Chapter 20

Before I could ask what plan the vamp was talking about, Barnabas crossed the remaining distance to our booth and plopped the mugs onto the table, then took the ones that I was carrying and did the same.

“All right, lovelies, there we are. Drink up!” He slid into the booth and tugged me with him, which put Prish and Fallon across from us and Kaillen in the middle. Barnabas settled his arm around my waist, then nuzzled into my neck. “You still smell quite delicious, dear Tala.”

I squeaked at the feel of his nose running along my skin, then the scrape of his fangs near my jugular.

“What the fuck?” Kaillen snarled, but Barnabas lifted his head from my neck and cocked an eyebrow at the hunter.

“You’re not mated to her anymore, old friend. I don’t see what the problem is with sharing.”

My lips parted in surprise just as a dark expression overtook Kaillen’s face, but before the hunter could react, Barnabas whipped me out of the booth and back to the floor where several couples were dancing to the music.

He twirled me to the center of the room, moving so fast he was almost giving away the fact that we weren’t human, before he pulled me into his arms and drew me so close to him that my body planted against his.

“Barnabas!” I exclaimed as my boobs squashed against his hard frame. Beneath his thin shirt, his body felt cool and chiseled. “What the hell are you doing?”

But instead of answering, his arms snaked around my waist, and one of his hands settled dangerously close to my ass while the other drifted to my hip.

When I didn’t return the embrace, he lifted my arms and draped them around his shoulders. “Dance with me, love. It will drive him wild.” He gyrated his hips against mine as he moved in time with the music.

“So this is your plan?” I asked.

He smiled wickedly. “It is.”

Sure enough, an angry bellow came from across the room, and a flash of Kaillen’s murderous glare appeared in the crowd. But just as the hunter cut through the dancers like a knife, Barnabas twirled us away, moving expertly through the throng of people as if he didn’t have a care in the world.

Breathless, I held onto him as Kaillen stalked toward us, the veins in the hunter’s neck standing on end.

“I hope you know what you’re doing,” I whispered under my breath.

“Oh, darling, I know exactly what I’m doing,” he replied before his mouth drifted to my neck, and he pressed a kiss flush against my skin.

I gasped in surprise as Kaillen roared, “Barnabas!”

Energy slammed into my back as the hunter was nearly upon us, but once again Barnabas expertly sashayed us across the floor, moving through the crowd like liquid silk.

Another snarl came from behind me, and I clung tightly to the vamp’s shoulders. “If your intent is to piss him off, you’re doing a marvelous job.”

Barnabas’s indigo eyes flashed with mirth. “My intention is to do much more than piss him off.
