Rand listened with half an ear, not really caring what the va as he kept his distance He focused on the food Then, as his first hunger abated, Rand realized so else He was chained

He lunged against the collar, realized it was too snug to slip, and it pulled hi a little at the sudden twinge of pain in his side and leg, he saw the chain running to the nearby tree No He wasn't going to tolerate being bound Typical va a chain could hold him

He was still healing, but he kneas strong enough to free hiot the chain wrapped around his chest, under his leg Enough of a harness that when he lunged again, the chain h his shoulders

One or more of the links should have busted At the very least, stretched He could cohtened around hih it didn't cut into his flesh, as he would have expected As pain bloomed in his side, he did it two tinizing that for the trap it was, Rand stopped and forced hi, he rolled his eyes toward Cai

"Been doing a little reading," the vaaze was on Rand, tracking his every movement He squatted on his heels a short distance away, forearer of one hand flicking in idle, unconscious ed position, four feet braced as he faced off with the vampire

"Went into town to snag the chain and collar, and raided the local library for the shifter stuff Figured a lot of it was going to be coet soht, like the darkness and blood" Cai lifted a book that was on the ground by his side Rand flattened his ears in response, not sure of the intent of the ain

It's a damn book Think He could shift his mind to think like a human while in wolf form, if he focused He just usually preferred not to do so He'd done it that night with the hunter, tricking hi he was dead, but he'd been particularly motivated

"A few stories say if a shifter stays in his ani, he'll be stuck that way forever," Cai continued in that sa, persistent tone "I expectto be avoided For sos, I expect it would be really da"

Cai rose, and sauntered over to a nearby tree, taking a seat beneath it "The best way to coe is to re about the human form And I don't know a male in the world on't act in the best interest of his dick"

With deceptive casualness, he unbuckled his belt, left it dangling as he pulled open the top button of his jeans Working the zipper doith the pressure of his fist, he curled it around the cock he revealed, since he wore no underwear under the gar I'll be gentle, but I want that ass"

Rand fought his human side, tried to push it back, but his eyes locked onto the vampire's movements as he settled in to jack himself off One knee was bent, the other rocked out wide as he slowly pu a shirt, and Rand's attention was all over hier The vah for his cock to be stupid

"Yeah I expect your shifter healing abilities and that second mark finally started to work in the same direction You're not a hundred percent, but probably in about the eighty-percentile range So you can have this as a reward" Cai tightened his fist around his stiff cock, with its sci thickness "Or maybe it's my reward Doesn't matter I think by the time I'm done, you'll consider it a in"

Vaance was even farther off the charts than he'd heard Rand told hi to what Cai's hand was doing, and his body trembled on that precipice, the hu badly It had been so long

"All you have to do to get it, and to get out of that collar, is coled the thu chains, if you like the feel of the collar I put on you enough to keep wearing it"

That outrageous staterin It showed the tip of the vas, both the real and theHe didn't want to be curious Didn't want to care

Cai's gaze slid down as he fingered his belt with his free hand "If you shift to human, I could strip this off and use it on your fine ass, punish you for causing me so much work"

Rand backed up, e have hi, which was gratifying, but it still held He'd e him away from a decision he couldn't afford He didn't want to feel Why wouldn't the vampire leave it alone?

The pain in his side built to fire, and he snarled as the vampire was suddenly on his feet and behind him, arms banded around his throat and the barrel of Rand's chest, holding his
