Raine burst through the door. His shirt hung loosely from his jeans, bringing her attention to the stain on his chest. His slick hair stuck out in several directions. “You’re back. Dammit, Dannika, you took ten years off my life.”

He pulled her into his arms and rubbed her back, inhaling her scent.

Her wolf responded in kind, clutching him to her and taking his scent into her lungs. “I can’t stay. It’s not safe.”

Raine pulled back. “What are you talking about?”

“Killian took me. He showed me his past, my past, and his future. If I don’t do as he asks, he will destroy the shadow clans.”

Raine tipped her chin up. “What Killian showed you is a potential future. Yes, it can come true, but so can several other timelines. Foreshadowing is not absolute.”

She took his hand, holding it in hers. “Can he lie? Is there a way for him to alter the images? To show me what he wants me to see?”

Raine’s lips pursed. “No. What you saw is a possible destiny, and I don’t doubt that Killian will do whatever is necessary to ensure the timeline he desires comes to pass, but doing as he asks only gives him more power. Don’t play into his hands.”

She squeezed her eyes shut. “I already did. He needed my blood, and he took it.”

Raine arched his eyebrows. “He was unaffected by your blood? It didn’t burn him?”

“Oh, it did. My blood burned half his face off, but he did it anyway. That’s a testament to his conviction.”

Raine grabbed both her shoulders. “Don’t focus on the destiny Killian wants. We can change it.”

“I have to go.”

Raine pulled her toward him when she turned away. “No.”

“I saw your death. Killian removed your head, then he killed Steele and Ryder. In the images, Killian was something more. He’d made himself more powerful. None of you stood a chance.”

“Killian can see a fight play out a hundred times before we experience it. I’m sure that made him seem more powerful, but we can fight reapers. Steele and Ryder are here. Let’s talk to them, tell them what’s at stake.”

She put her arms around Raine. “I’m so tired. So are you. Can we talk to them later?”

Raine’s eyes flickered with iridescent blue fire. “Yes.”

He backed her towards the couch, laying her down before he removed her clothes.

Dannika squeezed his shoulders. His hair caressed her skin as he kissed her neck. He had barely touched her, yet the whisper of a sensation sent a fiery tornado racing through her blood. She clung to him in a tsunami of erotic fire when he cupped her breasts, rolling her erect nipple between his fingers before sliding his hand along her ribs and belly. She needed this. Craved it. This was her last moment of happiness. She would have this memory sustain her in the days to come.

Raine’s touch left a turbulent sea of desire. She wanted to scream for relief, but dry air caught in her throat when his hand moved to her thighs. She moaned when his fingers slipped between her slick, heated flesh, parting her tender lips and pressing inside her.

She arched toward him, almost coming apart right there as he stretched her tight sheath. His mouth tugged hard on her nipple, causing a rush of liquid between her thighs, coating his fingers in her warm juices. He nudged her thighs apart with his knee as his tongue lavished her nipple. The sensations coursing through her body made her heart pound in her chest. Her soul responded to the only man she would ever love.

Raine growled as his eyes lit with hunger. He would ravage her. Consume her. For a moment, she could forget it was the last time. She froze as the predatory eyes moved to the valley between her breasts. He kissed her neck, then trailed kisses down her abdomen until reaching her navel. She panted as his tongue flicked the tiny gold ring that pierced it.

Air rushed from her lungs when he cupped her ass, holding her in place. His teeth scraped over her sensitized skin as a low growl of male satisfaction escaped his throat.

She clutched his shoulders as if they were the only haven in the tornado of emotion assaulting her body. “Don’t stop.”

She was begging, pleading with him. Her body was on fire, a nuclear bomb teetering on the brink of detonation.

He spread her thighs wider, causing her to sink deeper into the cushions. Breath caught in her throat when he blew cool air against her heated core. Every muscle tensed as his tongue slipped between her lips.

The foray into the sensitive folds had her crying out. Her nails dug into his skin, and blood welled up on her fingertips. The jolt of pain spurred his beast. His demon. The days without her had snapped his control, turning him into a ravenous animal, devouring his feast.

His tongue was rough and aggressive, an extension of the predator he was. She fought for breath as her muscles coiled, her breasts jutting out as she arched her back. He held her locked to his hungry mouth, lapping her hot milk like a hungry cougar.

Rippling waves of pleasure cascaded over her skin. Claws pierced her fingertips, but she barely noticed. She couldn’t stand it. She couldn’t catch her breath. When she pushed on his shoulders, his marauding tongue stabbed deeper, licking the cream from her sensitive flesh. She screamed as her body came apart, exploding with tiny fireworks igniting beneath her skin, a sizzling seduction that went on and on.
