Alpha Lycus POV
I took a deep, steadying breath to calm my crazy heart and my hungry wolf. My feet moved in slow motion until I stood hovering over the bed. I was unsure yet I could not control my body.
“I want to kiss you.” He pulled me down to the bed. We stared at each other as his eyes mirrored my look.
“You know this is a bad idea, Your Highness.”
“I am drawn to you. Why do you keep denying this?” he said, his hands caressing my cheeks.
“You took a risk coming here,” I responded. I needed to keep myself in check. Remind myself of the current situation between shifters and vampires.
He sighed and whispered, “Your words last time cut too deep.”
