later.”
    Taryn ushered out the other four, but not before Kass saw more than one disappointed face. No matter, they wouldn’t stay sulky for long with a vampire in the palace.
    Luc beckoned with one finger for the faery to approach, blue eyes glittering. Lyric moved to the bed, biting her lip shyly, cheeks pink. The Fae folk might be bashful with strangers at first, but they were a notoriously sexual bunch. One just had to get them warmed up, so to speak. Kass settled into a large, stuffed chair near the bed, and managed not to smile at Luc’s irritation.
    “Really? You’re going to stay and spy on my feeding?”
    “Spy? I think not. Remember, this is my palace and youbelong to me. If I want to watch my vampire in action, doing what vampires do best, then I will. Besides, you run an adult resort. I can’t imagine this is the first time you’ve been observed.”
    He lifted a shoulder. “Suit yourself.”
    Oh, she intended to.
    She wouldn’t miss this show for the world.
    Damned Valkyrie female! She was doing this to keep him off balance. He knew that and told himself to blow it off, to forget about
why
Kass was staying and concentrate on turning the tables on her. Satisfaction filled him at the thought.
    Oh yes, that was it! Since she wanted to observe her vampire in his natural habitat so badly, then he’d put on a show that would leave her squirming—and hating her own self-imposed rule not to allow him to feed from her! Because nothing was more orgasmic than the bite of a vampire. The warrior had never experienced it for herself or she’d know this.
    Well, he’d teach her.
    Determined, he focused his attention on the pretty faery. “Have you ever experienced the kiss of a vampire, little one?”
    “No,” she whispered, her eyes huge in her small face. Her wings fluttered in agitation.
    “Are you scared?”
    “Nervous. But I know my mistress would never allow anything bad to happen to me.”
    “Kassandra is your mistress?” he asked, for clarification. She nodded. “Well, you can trust her, because I’m not going to hurt you. I’ve never killed an innocent, and I’m not going to start with a sweet little faery.”
    She gave him a tentative smile. “I have friends who’ve been with vampires, and they claim it’s like leaping from the top of a mountain with your wings folded behind your back. Just plummeting, letting the wind rush past your body, until the very last second. Then snapping your wings open again to float safely to the ground.”
    He chuckled. “Do they? That’s possibly the best description I’ve ever heard. I’ll do my best to live up to expectations.”
    Still, she seemed a bit skittish. So when he reached out, he moved slowly, brushing a long soft strand of lilac hair behind one ear. Then he leaned forward and placed a kiss on her lips, keeping it gentle, coaxing. Her lips were warm and pliant, and after a few seconds she opened for him like a thirsty flower after the rain.
    Deepening the kiss, careful with his fangs, he fingered the thin strap of her top and slipped it off one shoulder. The blouse was loose and the material slid down, exposing one pert, creamy breast tipped by a rosy nipple. With care, he pressed the faery onto her back and bent over her. Took the nub in his mouth and suckled.
    He heard her indrawn breath, felt the quickening of her heartbeat, and those responses pleased him, as did the flare of her sparkling, unusual pink irises when he glanced up to gauge her reaction. Yes, she was ripe for the taking.
    Leisurely, he worried the nipple more, scraping it with his teeth. He laved and nibbled. When Lyric squirmed beneath him, signaling the desire for more, he complied, pulling the blouse off and tossing it to the floor. Next went the flowing pants that reminded him of the type of garment a harem girl might have worn long ago.
    Beneath, she was naked. Her skin was as pale as a snowdrop,her body lithe, the gorgeous canvas accented by the purple curls at the apex
