“Come on.” Dane kicked off his boots. “We both stink.”

Dane’s pants were the next to go, and Lindsay was sure Dane could smell the lust that surged in him. He’d seen Dane naked a few times, but the wonder hadn’t faded. Dane was gorgeous. As he stood up, though, his lust was dampened by the pain from his back that made him wince and hiss in a breath. “Let me just…” He started unbuttoning his shirt, his fingers awkward and slow.

“Let me.” Dane was right there, though Lindsay hadn’t heard him cross the room. He ran one hand over Lindsay’s hair, so gently. With the other hand, he hooked a claw in the opening of Lindsay’s shirt and drew it to the hem. The fabric parted with a whisper and the shirt fell open.

Lindsay stared at his torn, stained shirt. It took a moment for it to sink in that Dane had sliced it open and his razor-sharp claw hadn’t touched Lindsay’s skin at all. “Oh,” he breathed. “Thank you.”

“Don’t think you’ll be wearing it again.” Dane pushed the shirt back from Lindsay’s shoulders, his warm palms skimming Lindsay’s skin, and let it fall. “It’s not really you anyway.” His long hair brushed Lindsay’s cheek and he pressed a gentle kiss to Lindsay’s temple. “Let me help with the rest?”

Lindsay nodded. He hurt too much to be able to get his clothes off nearly as quickly as Dane could and, if he was totally honest with himself, the show of control was intensely arousing. “Please. I think I like it when you help.” He had little hope of being less than honest with Dane.

“I noticed.” Dane sniffed playfully in the hair over Lindsay’s ear before he sank to his knees and unlaced Lindsay’s boots.

It was such an unfamiliar pose to see Dane in, but Lindsay was beginning to understand that those kinds of things didn’t matter to Dane. He was beginning to understand a lot of things about Dane that he hadn’t grasped before. Dane had almost died for him—again—and Lindsay knew now that these weren’t isolated incidents. Dane would do anything he could to keep Lindsay safe. Lindsay hoped that someday he’d deserve that kind of devotion.

Lindsay let Dane help him strip, swallowing hard as he felt the brush of Dane’s claws against his skin. His clothes fell to the floor. God, that was really hot. After everything that had happened tonight, he should’ve been curled up in the corner, shaking and terrified. Instead, Dane’s care and touches soothed him and let him move past the fear. Dane couldn’t fix everything, Lindsay knew, but he could fix a lot by being who he was and caring about Lindsay.

Dane stood, running his hands up Lindsay’s thighs and hips as he did, and all the way up Lindsay’s body to cup his face. The touches left a trail of heat in their wake. Lindsay felt like he was burning up, and Dane hadn’t even kissed him yet.

Just like the walk back
