And even longer to convince herself that she wasn’t imagining the breathtakingly beautiful face that hovered a mere inch above her.
An angel . . .
What other creature possessed such pale, exquisite features? Or dark eyes as soft as velvet? Or a halo of burnished brown curls?
Her heart forgot to beat as she became lost in those beautiful eyes, her breath once again squeezed from her lungs.
He was just so . . . beautiful.
Straight out of a fantasy, how-do-I-get-him-in-my-bed-this-second gorgeous.
Desire, raw and demanding, pulsed through her. Dear goddess. His hard body fit against her with tantalizing perfection. And his scent. A rich musk that made her blood heat with a potent hunger that was as shocking as it was unfamiliar.
Kata knew that she had only to close her eyes to become lost in his dark enchantment.
Then the cold blast of his power filled the room and her insane thoughts were shattered.
A vampire.
A damned vampire.
It was no wonder he could melt a heart at a hundred paces.
The evil creatures used their beauty as a lethal weapon.
She pressed her hands against his hard chest, too late realizing her danger. But oddly he didn’t strike, despite the terrifying flash of his huge fangs. Instead he regarded her with a horror that matched her own.
“You,” he breathed, looking as if he’d seen a ghost. “Bloody hell.”
