She screamed even louder, exciting him even more.
Kessar picked her up and latched onto her neck, tearing through the flesh so that her blood would fill his mouth. As soon as she stopped fighting, Nabium joined him by tearing into the other side.
When she was dead and drained, they threw her to the ground. Kessar frowned as he saw a small leather bracelet on her right arm. Jerking it off, he read her name.
Scoffing, he tossed it on top of her body and wiped his mouth.
His good humor restored, he pulled his shirt off over his head and tossed it over her body before he manifested another one.
Nabium duplicated the gesture before he returned to their previous topic. "At least the good news is we have negated Zakar. He will be worthless to them now."
Possibly, but Kessar wasn't the kind of demon who counted on things going as planned. "Never underestimate Nana. He travels with an Atlantean."
"Are you sure?"
"Of course. How else would he be able to destroy my brother?" Kessar's grief was gone now. The kill had placated him. If his brother was stupid enough to die at the hands of them, then he deserved it.
"What do we do now?" Nabium asked.
"We have to find some way to negate Sin's powers."
"He's already stripped of them."
"Not enough. He is the only thing standing in the way of the Kerir. We must get Zakar back and get that Atlantean bitch and convert her."
"How?"
Kessar smiled. "The same way we captured Zakar. We infect her. Then we'll have both Zakar and Nana, and there will be no one to stand in our way."
Nabium laughed until he realized the humans were starting to stir. "Speaking of infection..."
Kessar looked at the women. "They're too ugly to keep, especially the short bitch. Cut their heads off and throw them in a ditch somewhere."
He watched as Nabium covered the women with a jacket to disguise the blood on their clothes before he led them out of the room and to wherever he'd finish them off.
Humans. They disgusted him.
Soon, though, they would all be under the thumb of their masters. But first, he had to get Sin and Zakar...
Kat sighed in contentment as Sin's body relaxed behind hers, letting her know he'd finally gone to sleep. She was actually surprised that she'd won the argument for him to go to sleep and not get frisky with her.
But even though she wanted to be with him, she still needed a little space. Their relationship was going way too fast for her. She'd just met him, literally, and though they'd shared so much already, she still needed time to breathe. To think. To adjust.
So he'd given her a playful pout, then wrapped his arms around her and settled down to sleep. In some ways this was even more intimate than having sex with him. It at least took more trust, since it required his having to close his eyes and relax around her. She could do anything to him right now and he'd be powerless to stop her.
She could shave his head, paint his fingernails pink... put makeup on his face.
Biting her lip, she had to stifle a laugh at the thought of him in such a girlie way.
"What are you doing?" His deep voice was a sleepy rumble.
"I thought you were asleep."
"I was until your hip touched my groin." Those piercing gold eyes opened to stare at her. "Kind of hard to stay asleep with the smell of you so close and your body rubbing against mine." He rolled over, onto his back. "It's actually cruel."
"I'm sorry." She moved to snuggle up to his side. She laid her head on his chest and just inhaled the masculine scent of his body. She stared at her hand, which was incredibly pale on top of his dark skin. Kissing him just above his nipple, she closed her eyes.
Sin's body jerked at the sweetness of her actions. He still couldn't believe he was sharing his bed with her and they weren't doing anything other than sleeping in it.
