She looked at the board, her eyes widened, throwing me a cutting glance before she went back to studying the pieces.
Her hand hovered over the piece that could save her, and I held my breath. She swallowed. Was she worried? She looked worried. Or was it more excitement I saw shining in her eyes?
At the last moment, she changed her mind and took up the piece that would spell her doom. Moved it. Placed it.
I beamed.
Almost immediately, she realized what she had done and gasped. “But—” she started but didn’t finish.
One last move and I’d win. After so many games I’d lost. And then she’d get what she wanted.
A slow, sexy smile spread over her lips, she caught the bottom one between her teeth. Her eyes burned.
Shit.
She knew I had won. There was nowhere she could move her king where I couldn’t get to it.
“You did it,” she breathed, her hands curling into the silky black fabric of her dress.
I lifted the bishop, but before I could place it, the board flew from the table—crashing into the hearth, the pieces scattering onto the floor—into the flames.
She pounced over the table with a hunger in her expression like I’d never seen on a female. The weight of her body pressed into me and my cock hardened at the slightest brush of her contact. I grunted as her lips came down onto mine. Hard. Insistent.
I stiffened, my body tightening. But then…
Then the shock wore off. The tether in my chest vibrated, and I wanted to roar at the force of it. I clamped my arms around her. Kissed her greedily, swallowing her sharp moans. Her hand brushed against my right wing and I shuddered, my Grace igniting like a column of fire down my spine.
I’d imagined this moment so many times.Gods,nothing had ever felt so damnedright.Nothing else mattered. I couldn’t think of anything but her. Her sweet smell. Her soft fiery touch. Her spicy spirit-spiked taste. She wanted me, and I wanted her. It was primal. Innate.
Beyond my control.

Iknew the moment he gave in to his desire. His body softened and then molded to me—hardening again. His hands grasped at my waist and his lips were fevered and frantic against mine. I could hardly breath. Thefeelof him. It was overtaking every one of my senses. The Immortal Bond making the connection stronger.
My heart fluttered in my chest like a leaf caught in a storm’s wind. The fire at my core roiled at our contact—awakening into a violent blaze.
I couldn’t touch enough of him. I wanted more. I pressed against him, settling into his lap. His impressive length nudged at my inner thigh and I convulsed at the sensation cascading over me. Kade groaned, and it was all I could do not to tear the clothes from his body.
My Grace pushed against me—the fire building into an almost painful pressure against my skin. Kade’s Grace heated in response. Our lips parted for an instant and I saw the wild glowing of his eyes—how his breaths came in ragged pants through his parted lips.
This is dangerous,I thought.
He nodded.
Had he heard my thoughts?
Two fire-Graced Fae fucking…
He spoke the thought down through the tether connecting us, and I jolted at the sound of his deep timber resounding in my mind. Licked my lips.
He was right—we’d burn down the palace.
“We should leave,” he said aloud, lifting me onto him in one swift movement.
“Hurry,” I whispered against his lips before yanking them back to mine. He wrapped an arm around my middle and ran for the terrace. Cold wind whistled by my ears and my stomach dropped. When I opened my eyes again, we were flying through the ink-stained night.
