Rend kissed me, then moved his mouth across my cheek and down toward my shoulder. He pushed the white shirt down, exposing the skin at the base of my neck. Just as I had earlier at his house, I lifted my chin, giving him complete access. Wanting him more than ever.
His lips brushed against my sensitive skin and I shivered, digging my fingers into his biceps.
His body went rigid and he let out a low growl. The sound sent a wave of fear through me. His mouth opened against my skin and two sharp points dug into me, breaking the skin as I cried out in pain.
I jerked away from him, but he held me down against the top of the table, his strength too much for me. He seemed to be frozen in place as desire and fear waged war inside my core. What was happening to him?
Finally, he wrenched himself away from me, a loud groan escaping as he moved quickly across the room, his form nothing more than a blur of shadows.
I sat up and pulled what was left of the white dress shirt tight around my trembling form.
“Rend?” My voice wavered. I stood and backed as far as I could against the wall, my arms wrapped around myself like a bandage. Warm blood trickled from the small wounds at my neck, and I knew what he was. I knew it, but I didn’t want to believe it.
I shook my head, unable to stop the tears from falling down my cheeks.
Rend stood beside the window, his hand gripping the wooden frame with such power it had partially crumbled in his hand. His back rose and fell with each deep, rapid breath.
“I thought I could control it,” he finally said, his voice tense and filled with darkness. “This is why I’m dangerous for you, Franki.”
I yearned for him and feared him in that moment, body and soul surrendered to a man I could never have. The pain of it split me in two as my body shivered against the wall of my small apartment.
“This is why we can never be together,” he said.
He turned to me then, his face cloaked in shadow, but enough light coming through the window for me to see two white fangs protruding from his mouth, my red blood smeared across his lips.
