careful not to scrape her soft flesh with his incisors. He moved up to her clit and freed it from its sheath.
    She emitted a tiny cry as he circled over the swollen bud, alternating between quick lashes and suction. Her hips jerked as her fingers dove into his hair, pressing him closer. He eased one finger into her wet heat, then another, and pumped. So wet. So tight. Her uninhibited sounds of pleasure increased and he kept a steady rhythm, sensing the contractions both inside her body and under her clit.
    A strong tremor went through her as she climaxed, rasping something unintelligible. He continued until she caught another wave of pleasure. As it subsided, he raised himself and looked down at her limp body, her head turned to the side, chest rising and falling unevenly.
    His cock throbbed in painful frustration. He longed to glide into her, feel her slick heat wrap around his flesh and milk him, but he shouldn’t tire her.
    She stirred and met his gaze, dark brown eyes hazy with sexual gratification. A flush marked each of her high cheekbones and her long hair fanned across the pillow. Her beauty wrenched something deep in his chest.
    She rose into a sitting position and placed her palm against his cheek. His breath hitched. Slowly, she glided it down his throat and across his left shoulder, making his skin erupt in a warm frisson. She continued her exploration, moving over his chest and his abdomen, dark eyes wide with erotic wonder. Dex’s control was close to snapping. His muscles clenched as she lingered an inch above his erection. Her tongue flicked across her bottom lip, making him bite back a groan.
    When her hand inched toward the throbbing bulge in his underwear he grasped it before she touched him. He raised it to his mouth, kissing her palm, then her wrist.
    “It’s a little too soon, sweetheart.” What he had in mind to do required energy she didn’t have after the transfusion.
    There was a flash of disappointment in her eyes, which disappeared as she drew in a shaky breath. Her expression sobered and she slid her hand out of his. “I think you should go, Dex.”
    He hesitated, unsure how to take the thread of irritation in her voice. Was she upset because he didn’t go further or was it because she’d let him pleasure her? A part of him wished she would pull him over her body, give in to the wild need that flared between them. But he had to get out of here.
    “I’m going to make you a hearty breakfast and I’ll see you tonight.”
    “I’ve got plans with friends.”
    Were they male friends? Damn, he wasn’t the jealous type. He nodded. “I’ll call you later to see if you need anything.”
    He got up, his stubborn erection making him wince. The woman would be his undoing.

Chapter Seven
    Stephanie didn’t have plans with her friends. She just needed to stay away from Dex Mason, at least for a day, which would give her enough time to come to her senses. If his goal had been to take her this morning, she would have let him… hell …welcomed him eagerly into her body. There was something about the man that called to her most primitive nature. She’d been in lust with other men, but they never fired up her blood with one touch. Worse, she’d lost a significant defensive barrier—she didn’t dislike him anymore. She had no clue how this had happened. But her decision to date humans only was absolute.
    The long walk in City Park had helped clear her mind and had given her the time to reflect on the kindest thing she’d ever done—the blood transfusion for Ray. His doctor was confident that a second transfusion would destroy the illness. The glow of hope in Ray’s eyes had filled her with an emotion so special she knew she’d carry it inside her for the rest of her life. Regardless of the circumstances, she’d never regret doing this.
    As she came within several yards of her apartment building, she froze. Kyle was standing at the entrance. Oh, shit. She knew that call from him was bad
