Chapter Five

“I swear it was just like that Idol show!” Jolene enthused for the third time over dinner at one of the hotel’s four-star restaurants. “The judges were brutal. I don’t believe I’ve ever seen so many people crying in one place.”

Hobie patted his wife’s hand. “Which we would surely feel bad about if their tears didn’t mean you and Rose would be in the finals tonight. I think we have a real chance of winning this thing.”

“That’s what I meant, Hobie, baby. And of course they’ll win.”

“I know, my love.”

Mac forced a smile, but he couldn’t keep his eyes from scanning the crowded dining room, searching for Rose. She’d disappeared as soon as they ordered and he was restless, close to leaving the table to look for her. Protect her.

What was that irresistible demon up to now?

Last night had been unforgettable. He felt alive and for the first time in centuries, he remembered happiness. She made him laugh, drove him into bouts of lust-induced insanity and had more energy and sexual stamina than any woman of any species he’d ever met.

He’d known her for one day—but Mac had experienced more emotion in the last twenty-four hours than he had in the last twenty-four years. And her blood… It was more than intoxicating. More than madness. It made everything stronger—his body, his feelings. Even now he could sense it inside him—part of her inside him—connecting them to each other. Calling to him.

Was this what Saint felt for his kitsune, Ume? What Thomas felt for his mate? Both had fallen instantly, hard as stones to the ground, for their women. Despite their powers, they couldn’t resist the call. Though to be honest they didn’t really try.

But vampires didn’t mate like cats or foxes. They didn’t have children and families. His roommates and Esther were the closest thing he’d had to that kind of connection since he was created.

His kind didn’t plan for the future, they stood still in time. Statues memorializing an era—cursed to watch life move forward and leave them behind. Immortality was the worst kind of universal joke. Though the word rang with possibility and potential, the day-to-day truth of it was difficult to endure.

Thomas and Saint had helped. And now Rose had woven a spell around him that he couldn’t begin to understand, but it was one that made him feel almost human again. Made him remember the kind of man he’d wanted to be.

When he was young and imagined falling in love and taking a bride, he’d fantasized about a woman with voluptuous hips and breasts. A woman with fire in her eyes and wild, windblown hair. A bride who enjoyed more than endured her marriage bed.

She is a demon.

And he was a dead man, in more ways than one. That didn’t matter at the moment. What mattered was now. Rose. He was determined to spend this last night with her and then insure she got what she most desired. Her freedom.

After the gift she’d given him, it seemed a small price to pay.
