Feathery
kisses touched her closed eyes. Silken hairs brushed against her cheeks. Kayla
slowly awakened. Alandro was sitting beside her. He leaned over her, supported
by his arms and gently kissed her lips.
She lay on
a bed draped with black silk sheets. Their coolness on her ass alerted her to
the fact her miniskirt had ridden up to her waist, leaving her exposed in only
her thong panties.
“Where am
I?”
“Sleeping
beauty awakes.” His eyes were slow in meeting hers. They tracked along her
smooth bare thighs, lingered on the scrap of fabric covering her pussy, and
roamed over her chest. Finally their gazes locked. Desire simmered in the
heated depths. She was sure he saw the same in her pale, golden eyes.
“Are you
Prince Charming?”
“Not
Prince Charming. But some have referred to me as a Prince of Darkness.”
She
blinked, taking in her surroundings. The room was sparely decorated in muted
earthen tones. Besides the bed, there was a chaise lounge and large armoire
made from a dark mahogany.
A warm
glow illuminated the room, only she couldn’t identify the source. There were no
glaring overhead fixtures or table lamps. The room simply radiated its own pale
light. Deep shadows around the perimeter kept her from knowing the exact size
of the large room.
“This is
my home,” Alandro said. “My sleeping chamber to be precise.”
“Your
bedroom?” How in the hell had she gotten here? The last thing she remembered
was feeling a bit dizzy in the parking lot. “Did I pass out?”
“Yes.”
Mirth sparkled in his eyes. “And technically no. I assisted your slumber.
Travel is much faster my way.” His lips parted with a smile.
Kayla
sucked in sharply. There was no mistaking his right and left upper cuspids.
Pointed, clearly fangs, yet the teeth weren’t long.
She’d
heard stories, the tales of nightmares her grandmother had told. Vampire.
But they weren’t real. They were only the twisted tales to make her afraid of
the night. His skin was too dark for him to be an undead. In her mind, vampires
wore black capes and spoke with European accents. As a child, that was how
she’d convinced herself that she’d recognize the demons that hunted the souls
of humans. Alandro exuded a blend of gentlemanly charm and raw, native
sexuality.
“Don’t be
afraid.”
He
couldn’t be real, yet he sipped her lips. Once, twice, and then lingering
longer.
“Who are
you?” A shiver rippled over her flesh. Words lodged in her throat. Finally she
whispered, “What are you?”
