using the demon’s blood, he would have been too easy to kill.
    “I’ll do as you say.”
    Tor felt Anubis’ presence leave the temple. He wasn’t
exactly pleased with the god’s edict of no hunting until Tor had taken down the
demon. He was used to taking the initiative rather than sitting around doing
nothing, waiting for the bad guys to come to him. And not being able to hunt
meant he’d have a long night ahead of him before he could see Kenna again. He
couldn’t show up at her place after they’d made plans to meet the next day.
She’d wonder at the sudden change. Plus, she might think he moved a little too
fast if he came across as demanding all of her attention all of the time. He
knew what she meant to him but she didn’t have a clue.
    Tor left the small temple and headed downstairs to the
living room where he had a fifty-five-inch LCD television. He’d watch some
movies to help the time pass before he was tired enough to go to bed.
    As he looked through his collection of DVDs, his thoughts
kept straying to Kenna. The more he thought of her the more he remembered how
she tasted, how it felt to sink his body into hers. The sounds she made as she
came. He longed to be with her, to have her always at his side. He craved her
touch, and would for the rest of his very long life. His feelings for her had
gone from simple attraction to full-blown love in a matter of days.
    Maybe it had a lot to do with the bond that had formed
between them, but Tor knew he didn’t want to go back to his old life of being
alone. Kenna completed him, made him feel things he hadn’t felt in thousands of
years—longing for someone to share his days and nights with being one of them.
    Tomorrow he’d take the steps to bring Kenna into his world
and permanently into his life. He wanted her living under his roof where she’d
be better protected from the evil Tor knew all too well lurked outside, just
waiting for a chance to strike at the next victim. She’d already experienced it
firsthand, not that she remembered. He wanted to shelter her from it so it
would never happen again. He would always be one of Anubis’ warriors, but he
now had a duty to protect Kenna, his mate, as well.

    Kenna found she didn’t know what to do with herself after
Tor had dropped her off at home. She prowled around her apartment missing him
like crazy. No other guy had she obsessed over as much as she did Tor. Some
great sex and now she wanted to hang on to him and never let him go. Neither of
them had even discussed the future. She didn’t even know if Tor wanted a
serious relationship with her. And it was way too early to think about bringing
up the topic of marriage.
    She went to her bedroom and decided she might as well pack a
bag for her weekend at Tor’s. The first thing she did was head to her underwear
drawer. Though she wasn’t one for dressing overtly sexy, she did like to wear
slinky undergarments. Nick called her the closet slut, that deep inside she
wanted to show off her body. She did, but only to the men she slept with. And
right now that man was Tor.
    Kenna pulled out some of her skimpiest lingerie. She had one
set in particular she wanted to take. After lifting it out of the drawer, she
held it in front of her. It was a red satin baby doll with black lace trim
along the hem and a sweetheart neckline. The straps were black and thin with tiny
black satin bows partway up. A red satin G-string completed it. It was one of
Kenna’s recent purchases and she hadn’t had a chance to wear it yet. She had a
feeling Tor would like to see her in it. She knew she’d love it when he
stripped the baby doll off her.
    Once she finished packing, Kenna took a long, hot shower.
She washed her hair, shaved her legs and lathered herself up with her
vanilla-scented body wash. Letting her hair air-dry, she applied lotion to her
body. Now she was all set to see Tor the next day.
    When the hour grew late enough, Kenna went to bed. She
thought she
