Night's Beauty (The Valkyrie's Passion Prologue): A Valkyrie/Shifter Romance

He was dangerous and sexy. My heart beat, begging me to stay as I gathered up my dress. But it would never work out. He was a biker and I was a barista. I pulled on my dress and panties before finding my purse on the floor. Half its contents had spilled out on the threadbare carpet. I grabbed my phone, its charger, lipstick, keys, my compact mirror, packets of moist towelettes, and a pair of tampons and dropped them into my purse.
Magnus rolled over; I froze. If he woke up, I would never leave. Those blue eyes were so intense. I padded to the door. Creeping out of the motel room was the hardest thing I had ever done. My stomach twisted with regret as I gently closed the door behind me.
“This is the right thing to do,” I reminded myself.
A raven cawed as it perched on electric wires. Had it been there all night?
Across the street was a Denny's. I rushed across the highway and entered. The waitress gave me a knowing look. I flushed. My tangled hair and rumpled dress advertised what I had last night—a one night stand.
Not looking the waitress in the eye, I headed for a booth. There was an outlet beneath the table. I plugged in my phone. Once it turned on, I called Haleigh to come rescue me.
I doubted I would ever see Magnus again, but I would always remember him.

Magnus
The sunlight streaming through the window woke me up. I groaned, rolling over, reaching for Raven.
She wasn't in bed.
I sat up, looking around. She was such a passionate woman. Tall and fierce. When Talon had grabbed her, she hadn't screamed or cried. She fought against him. Raven was a warrior. I had never met a woman like that. The moment I saw her walking through the fog, I knew this woman was special.
And she was gone.
There would be hell to pay for assaulting Talon. I had walked into the Blood Eagles's territory and punched their vice-president. But it was worth it for her.
I looked around, hoping to find some trace of her. I spotted something lying on the floor, half-hidden in the bed's shadow. A nametag. I picked it up and flipped it over. It was a rectangle of green plastic, her name carved into it next to the logo of a boar drinking a cup of coffee. My heart thudded as my thumb ran over her name, tracing the indentations.
I smiled. I had a clue. Raven wasn't getting away from me that easily. I would tame her.

We reached the top of the stairs and he threw open the first door we came to, revealing the master bedroom. A cream comforter covered a king-sized bed, the frame made of dark-stained wood, which dominated the center of the room. A matching dresser and makeup table lined the walls besides the louvered doors of a closet.
“Watching you stand with that flaming sword facing the monster was amazing,” he growled, setting me down on my feet. “You were beautiful and powerful. A warrior. My Valkyrie with a sword of fire, burning with all her passion. You were fearless.” He grinned. “You were the Warrior-Queen Boudica facing the Romans unafraid.”
I had no idea who Boudica was, but his words stirred me. His blue eyes shone with passion. “And you were...” I struggled to find a comparison. Jacob, from Twilight? No, that was insulting to this strong man. “I don't know. Amazing. Powerful. Strong. Wonderful, Magnus. You were wonderful.”
His hands grabbed the hem of my wet polo shirt, ripping it off my body. My white bra was also soaked, my breasts bleeding through the material, my nipples dark shadows. His hand slid up my stomach to my breasts, gripping them through the material as he seized my lips in another kiss.
My body quivered. His kisses sent such waves of fire burning through my body. My hands found his hard, rippling stomach. I slid higher, dipping beneath his leather vest to caress his strength. I pushed the vest off as we kissed, my fingers tracing down his arms and back up to his neck. His arms wrapped around me, pulling me close.
His fingers were deft. My bra came undone. He had a lot of practice at that.
Magnus pulled my bra off of my shoulders and down my arms. My naked breasts pressed against his chest. My nipples rubbed on his pecs. Wonderful tingles shot down between my thighs. I moaned into his kiss, pressing my body against his muscular strength.
His hands roamed down my body to my wet pants. I kicked off my tennis shoes as he unsnapped my slacks. His strong hands pushed the soaked pants off my hips. They clung to my thighs, not wanting to fall.
In irritation, I broke the kiss and shoved my pants down my thighs and calves. I peeled them off with my wet socks, throwing them across the bedroom. I rose, my breasts swaying. I was naked save for my panties. They were wet, too, and not just from the melted snow.
