Darius threw back his head and barked with laughter The sound boomed raw and new, and she fell deeper in love with hi so precious because she kne rare such amusement was for hiether

When his laughter subsided, a sensual light glowed in his eyes His features were so relaxed, so open "I&039; his nose against hers

"I am, too," she admitted "I have an itch"

"Allow me to help you" He pressed his lips to hers in a lazy, delicious kiss His fiery flavor, his heat, his ed to enthrall her Need and desperation wrapped around every inch of her body, and she threaded her wet hands around his neck

"You are my fantasy, Grace" His hands cupped her jaw, and he forced her to look up at him "Only you"

If she hadn&039;t already loved him, she would have fallen just then "I have a fantasy," she whispered She licked the seam of his lips "Want to hear?"

He trailed his hands down her back,her shiver, then cupped her bottom and jerked her into him for deeper contact "Tellwarriors who love as fiercely as they fight, and I&039;ve alanted one for my very own"

His lips twitched "Now you have one"

Here, in the present, a lone tear slid from the corner of Darius&039;s eye He did not wipe it away, but allowed it to trickle down his cheek and onto his ear

As tuned to him as she was, Grace sensed his torht with concern "Darius?" she said softly "It&039;s okay Whatever it is, it will be okay"
