He shook with the fierceness of it. The soul-deep rightness of it.
As she stared up at him with luminous dark eyes, pink lips parted.
Expectant.
She advanced a step toward him, and he immediately took a step back, nostrils flaring, taking in her scent.
It was driving him crazy, making his pulse race. His mind didn’t understand it. And yet his body clearly knew her. Hethrobbedwith primal need.
To take her. Protect her. Be one with her.
“Hi,” she said breathlessly, staring unblinkingly up at him.
He shook his head slightly, trying to clear it. Digging into his memories to place her. But he couldn’t. Even though his bodyknew.
He was aroused.
Painfully, uncontrollably, untenably aroused.
After twelve years of solitude, this sudden, unknowable desire and need overwhelmed him. Made him physically stagger back. Chest heaving, nostrils flaring.
“It’s me,” she whispered softly, reaching out her hand toward his chest as his muscles quivered in anticipation.
“It’s Divina. Your female.”
He forced himself to stay still as her fingertips grazed his over-heated flesh.
She was just one tiny human female. He shouldn’t be afraid of her. He shouldn’t feel this much pain and longing when she had barely touched him.
And yet he did.
His throat constricted, and his eyes became wet. His breathing erratic, heart thrashing, pulse pounding.
Heknewher.
He needed her.
As he’d never needed anything or anyone before.
“I’m your woman, Andros,” she said huskily, in that sultry soft voice, her palm now gently pressing to his stallion chest.
Slowly, she came closer, until she could wind both of her arms around his human waist, and she placed the most reverent of kisses in the middle of his clenching, rock-hard abdomen.
She buried her nose in the corrugated muscles there and breathed him in through a long, deep inhale. She shuddered too, all over. Clasping him tight.
And raised her face to look up at him as he leaned down to her, arching his torso and neck, his hands cupping the sides of her lovely visage without his conscious command to do so.
“I’m home now,” she murmured with a tearful smile.
The most mesmerizing,happysmile Andros had ever beheld.
“I’ll never leave you again, beautiful,” she vowed, her voice raspy with barely-checked emotion.
And somehow, unquestioningly, Andros believed her.
His heart opened and bled for her, the vulnerable core of his soul burning in his eyes as he stared into hers intently.
“I promise to love you and cherish you forever and ever,” she said.
“I’m yours. Please. Will you be mine?”
