I shoved a knife in one of their eyes, his shriek getting Aurora’s attention. I saw the look of panic cross her face and she killed off the two other cult members before sprinting towards me.
She didn’t need to worry though. None of these fuckers were ever going to take me away from her.
I punched one of them and then stabbed the other two…before she’d even made it over to us.
She tackled me, her face slamming into my chest as she held me close.
“You can’t leave me,” she whispered.
I squeezed her back, my gaze darting around us just in case there were more of them lying in wait. There seemed to be a never ending supply of those idiots.
She pulled away, her face streaked with blood, and I pressed a soft kiss against her lips.
“I need to eat. And I need to fuck you,” I murmured, the blood lust and adrenaline hitting me hard…but not enough to distract me from my priorities.
She grinned, the haunted look in her gaze slightly fading. “In that order?”
I smirked. “I could be persuaded otherwise.” I grabbed her hand and we set off down the path towards the car, leaving behind a trail of dead bodies.
And a house we were definitely not going to get our deposit back on.

STELLAN
Iwoke up in hell.
I was in a cage. The floor was cold beneath me, and Remington was talking when I hadn’t had time to wake up yet. Hell on earth.
“What happened?” I groaned as the past came flooding back to me, along with pain that flared through my muscles. I looked down at my body and realized I was covered in bruises, and then the memory of fighting and finally going down under cult members rose in my mind. They had stabbed me with some kind of sedative, but I had made them work for it.
“You spent a whole week fucking Aurora while we were starving,” Paxton said grumpily.
I blinked, focusing on him blearily through the wire of the cage. Remington was on the other side of Paxton.
“Hey buddy,” Remington said cheerfully, barely missing a beat. “Glad you joined us. What’s been going on?”
“You sound awfully casual for a man in a cage,” I muttered.
“You know me. I always believe in looking on the bright side. Right now, I’ve got two of my best buddies here, and Cain and Aurora on the outside working to get us free. It’s just a matter of time.”
Remington sounded as cheerful as ever, but the more he prattled on, the more I realized how desperate he sounded. He was staying positive… with force of effort… but it wasn’t natural.
Paxton had been here the longest. When I looked at him, he pulled a face at me as if he knew I was gauging them both. Pax looked weary, thinner than he had been before.
“He’s been starving you?”
“Yeah. But he’s chucked some water our way.” Paxton raised an almost-empty bottle, and it was obvious from the look on his face that he’d been saving it, resisting his thirst in case the Demon didn’t deliver more of it. He tilted the bottle carefully, watching the water slosh back and forth. Then he raised his dark gaze to mine. “Do you need it?”
God, I loved these crazy bastards.
“I’m alright,” I promised.
“Tell us about Aurora,” Remington said.
The need in his voice was obvious.
“She has a dominatrix side, did you know that?” I sighed at the memory. “It’s sexy as fuck.”
