Beale stepped aside, allowing Theran to enter, then retreated, closing the door behind hi side was an infor room, coe enough for a full-grown man to sleep on The short side of the roo the back wall, red velvet covering the side walls, and a large blackwood desk with two chairs in front of it for visitors

From behind the desk rose the --the thick black hair, golden eyes, and light brown skin But the raceful to be completely human, and as he came around the desk,Theran felt the punch of sexual heat

"Prince Grayhaven"

The voice caressed hi an unwelcome arousal

"I’m Daemon Sadi"

Of course this was Sadi Who else could it be?

He’d heard stories Who hadn’t heard stories? But now he had a glimpse of why Sadi had been called the Sadist All Warlord Princes had that sexual heat to soree, but he’d never met another Warlord Prince who could halfway seduce a nor toward that person

Then the door opened, Sadi looked around, and Theran felt the ground cruht the sexual heat had been a deliberate ploy to throw him off-balance It wasn’t The punch he’d experienced when he’d walked into the room was Sadi with his sexuality chained One look at the woman alked into the room, and Sadi

Theran froze Warlord Princes were territorial at the best of times, and lethally so when it came to a lover A woman could end a relationship with a Warlord Prince without fear, but the only kind of er Warlord Prince

Based on what he was picking up from Sadi’s psychic scent, this woer, just being in the sah to provoke Sadi into a kill

Not pretty,Theran decided Attractive in an uncoolden hair looked shaggy and was too short for hi And she looked too thin to have the kind of curves a s that would have made Theran dismiss her as a potential partner didn’t seeold eyes when he looked at her, the hunger that had sharpened his psychic scent

She stopped, narrowed her blue eyes, and rocked back on her heels

"Nighthawk and I are going for a ride," she said "Beale said you wanted to see me before I went out"

"Wear a hat," Daemon said

Her mouth primmed "I don’t like hats"

Daemon moved toward her

Theran adjusted his coat to hide his reaction to the heat pouring off the other man

The woman just narrowed her eyes a littlethe room

Daemon cupped her face in his hands "You need to wear a hat when you go out in the sun," he purred

"You don’t wear a hat"

"My nose doesn’t turn bright pink and peel"

She frowned at Dae the tip of the adored nose, "and the rest of your face, and the rest of you"

Daehly as they traveled along her shoulders and down her back, his arainst him as his s go weak He should avert his eyes, give Sadi and the woman some token of privacy But he couldn’t look away

He wanted that kind of heat and hunger Hoped he’d find it with the new Queen ould rule Dena Nehele

And hoped he could get out of this room very, very soon

How in the nae to live here?

Sadi finally ended the kiss and loosened his hold His lover braced her hands against his chest as if to push away but didn’t ht," she ed to push away froolden eyes that atching her "Fine I’ll wear the damn hat"

"Thank you," Daemon purred

"Pleased with yourself, aren’t you?"

A flashing grin was her answer

As she headed for the door, Daeht her and turned her around

"There’s someone I want you to meet," Daemon said
