the process of her healing. Unsure of the
time, Zahra wondered if she had more time to lie in bed before heading back to
the village. Lennox wasn’t home, but she assumed he went to work in the morning
market. If that was so, she’d have plenty of time to relax.
Despite the hours of torture Lennox had inflicted upon her,
his tender touch had erased nearly all memories of the trauma. The look she’d
seen in his eyes revealed much. When he’d entered her, his blue gaze had been
wrought with sincerity. He hadn’t looked at her as a succubus, but as a woman.
He’d taken his time, ensuring that every moment resulted in her pleasure.
Although he had filled her, his care of her body proved that her climax, not
his, was the goal. That goal had been attained. Gloriously. A giggle escaped her. The sound caught Zahra by surprise. Her sister Sephina made her laugh constantly, but as of late, her
smiles had been few. And yet, recalling her captor’s sensual gaze in bed left
her wrought with butterflies.
As if on cue, her stomach grumbled. Damn she was hungry, but
getting out of bed wasn’t appealing at all. Spying the dresser across the room,
Zahra forced herself to get out of bed and look for something to wear. Sliding
open the top drawer, she found his undergarments. The plain shorts made her
recall the way Lennox removed his clothing for her. The man had an easy
sexuality that could’ve made him an incubus himself.
The second drawer held few options, plain cotton trousers
and leathers. She imagined Lennox’s lean body filling the leather pants as he
worked to create incredible weapons over a hot fire. She liked the pants, but
knew they’d never fit her. Instead, she decided to pull on one of the plain
linen shirts and a pair of his boxers. The shorts were light and airy, and fell
just above her knees. The shirt was loose and billowed as a breeze swept
through the room. Her fingers went to the loose strings to tighten the V at the
neck. She never even heard the door open behind her.
“You’ve been stirring up quite some trouble, haven’t you,
bitch?”
A spell froze Zahra where she stood. The vile voice and
heavy footsteps of the man approaching sent her heart into erratic thumps
against her chest. Bane’s hand wrapped around her neck and he whispered in
Zahra’s ear. She smelled the yeast of mead on his breath and would have
shuddered if a spell hadn’t frozen her in time.
“My men saw to your girl earlier.”
The low, murderous tone made Zahra’s heart clench tight.
Inside, she screamed. Her skin burned where Bane’s fingertips gripped her neck,
his touch was like poison eating away at her skin. The man revolted her.
“Let’s just say the debt has been repaid.”
At the wizard’s words, Zahra’s fury spiked and her
adrenaline shattered the spell. She whipped around and elbowed Bane in the
jugular. He choked for air and Zahra felt him try to place the seizing spell on
her once more. It slowed her down, but she powered through the enchantment and
drove her fist toward the man who’d been terrorizing her sister.
“Where is she?” She screamed at Bane, but he launched toward
her, knocking Zahra into the wooden dresser. Pain exploded in her weak body.
Two days of withdrawal and not eating had taken its toll. Even without magick , the wizard had an extra one hundred pounds on her.
“I rule this town. Don’t forget that.” Bane’s words were the
last thing she heard before pain exploded in her side. Blood seeped from the
wound, causing the linen to mold against her skin. She collapsed, but Bane
caught her arms and held her against him. “I’m not done with you.”
The door crashed open. Zahra lifted her head and saw Lennox
charge into the room. He threw a bundle of swords to the floor, saving only one
for his grip. “Release her.”
“This will not go down your way, vagrant.”
Lennox smiled and his slow grin lit up the room. He held her
gaze and winked. “It’s Lenny.”
