cock. Rohan firmly pushed away how
Harris became experienced. If he met a single one
of Harris’ ex-lover’s, he’d snap their neck. No one
should know the joy of Harris’ touch except him.
Rohan slid his fingers through Harris’ hair,
touching the soft strands with forced gentleness.
He really wanted to grab Harris’ head and fuck his
mouth, but he couldn’t treat his mate as harshly as

he might have treated a one-night stand in the
past. Harris would be his forever. His mate
needed a softer touch.
Harris swallowed Rohan’s cock, making
Rohan’s eyes roll back into his head with pleasure.
“Oh, beloved, you are so good at that,” he
whispered. Unable to resist Harris’ mouth, Rohan
gave himself up to his lover’s touch. Harris
swallowed Rohan’s cum with little difficulty, then
sat back on his heels with a wide smile.
“Like honey.”
Rohan laughed. “Come back up here.”
Harris zipped and tidied Rohan back up before
joining him on the seat.
Rohan opened his arms for Harris to snuggle
closer. If anyone accused Rohan of being a
cuddler, he’d deny it to their last breath, which
would quickly follow their statement.
“Kiss me,” Rohan demanded.
“Bossy!” Harris scolded.
“Yes, I am,” Rohan agreed.
An explosion rocked the limo. “What was
that?” Harris jerked his head around to look out
the limo window.
“Sorcerers,” Rohan peered out the window.
“Fuckers.”
Harris pulled out his phone and started dialed
frantically.
“What are you doing?” Rohan asked.

“Getting help.” Someone picked up the phone,
but Rohan didn’t know who until Harris called
him by name. “Carey, help! Sorcerers are attacking
our limo. We’re downtown by the courthouse.”
He must’ve received a positive response,
because he disconnected the line and peered out
the window again.
“This car is bomb proof,” Rohan said. He
couldn’t hide his irritation over having Harris
depend on someone else.
“But, is it sorcerer proof?” Harris asked. “Some
of them can shoot some pretty bad stuff.”
“How do you know?” Rohan asked. “When we
went to the sorcerer’s last time, they didn’t put up
too much of a fight.”
“I did some research after that encounter,”
Harris admitted. He ran his fingers through his
hair, ruffling the parts Rohan had smoothed over.
For a brief second, Rohan saw the beast beneath
the surface.
“What did you learn?”
“That they must be up to something bigger,
since they let us go so easily. They probably have
plans we know nothing about. After trying to
poison you and succeeding with some of your
people, they’ve gone underground to plan and
plot. I don’t trust them. They are inherently evil.
Their leader froze his own son,” Harris reminded
him.

“Whatever happened to Gallen?” The last he’d
seen of the young man was at Carey’s house.
“I put him in the garden,” Harris admitted.
“What do you mean you put him in the garden ?”
His visions of a crystal coffin displayed among the
roses drifted in his mind. An idea not dismissed
by Harris’ next words.
“Well, he’s like Snow White without the
dwarves. He can’t wake up until he’s kissed by his
prince. I wanted to do this huge glass coffin thing,
but Aden thought it would attract the cops, so I
made him a metal filigree one. You can’t even
really see him unless you know he’s there.” Harris
said, warming to his topic.
“Doesn’t he get rained on?” Rohan asked
reluctantly fascinated.
Harris shook his head. Aden knew a witch who
owed him a favor. The witch put a spell on it, so
Gallen doesn’t get drenched. It was the only way
Carey would agree to the garden thing.
“Surely, there’s a way to free him.” Amusement
curled Rohan’s mouth. He doubted he’d ever be
bored with Harris by his side.
“Carey’s been calling around to see if anyone
