.He climbed up her body.Water sloshed.His gazestrayed and lingered on her neck, at the pulsehammering there.His mouth watered.What would itbe like to sink his teeth in her vein, to let her bloodpour down his throat? He kissed his way betweenher breasts, lingered on her collarbone, then lickedher neck.She arched against him, writhing.Her hands flew tohis back, squeezing him, scratching him.He wasgoing to bite her& had to bite her& and he wasgoing to do it while he filled her with his cock.Hewas disgusted with himself, but he couldn't stop theneed from growing.He wanted to enter her and biteher at the same time, taking all of her, all she had togive.The need was so strong, he couldn't control it.If he didn't bite her soon, he'd perish.If he didn'tenter her soon, he'd perish.If he didn't spill his seedinside her soon, he'd perish.He had to have her,would have her, nothing could stop him."Tell me you're ready.Tell me you can take me.""Yes, yes.Now.Please now.Pleasepleaseplease.""Jewel.Mine." He was just opening his mouth, justreaching down, gripping his erection, poising himselffor entry, when he heard the door burst open.CHAPTER FIFTEENProtective instincts roaring to life, Gray foughtthrough the cloud of lust encompassing his mind andjolted up.A feral rage burned in his chest, spreading,growing hotter.He hummed with it, vibrated with it,was savage with it.A low, bestial growl emitted fromhis throat.Water splashed over the pool's edge as he leapt out.His breathing was harsh and ragged, and sweattrickled down his cheeks.Scowling, he grabbed twoof his blades from the floor.Jewel's eyes were glazed with passion and sheshook her head, trying to clear her thoughts.Shestraightened, a look of horror lighting her features.Gray heard no footsteps, only the flutter of wings.Hecouldn't see past the screen in front of the bath, sohad no idea who this unseen enemy was anunseen enemy that would die painfully for daring tointerrupt him."Where are they?" he heard a deep voice demand.He immediately recognized the speaker.AFormorian he'd gambled with and beaten at themarket.Gray's gaze narrowed.He should have expectedsomething like this, but he hadn't.His only concernhad been the vampires and demons.And gettingJewel naked."What ""Shh," he whispered to Jewel, handing her one of hisknives.She took the offered weapon with shakyfingers."Stay here," he mouthed.He found another blade buried under his pants andhurriedly grabbed it.With every second that passed,his rage intensified.Yes, someone was going to diethis night."Find the money," the Formorian barked.The sound of destruction rose, breaking wood,ripping fabric.He didn't know how many there were,but it was only a matter of seconds before theyspotted him and Jewel behind the screen.Hepreferred to keep the action in the center of theroom, away from Jewel.Unconcerned by his nakedness, he crouched lowand peeked from behind the screen, soaking indetails.The Formorians used their wings to hold themselvesup, their one leg reaching out and knockingeverything down, their one arm holding a spikedclub.There were five of them.Shit.Shit! He'd beenin worse situations, but he would have preferred hisgun.As he crouched there, deciding the best way toattack, all of his sexual lust mutated into simplebloodlust.He went from white-hot to ice-cold in seconds.Hismind shut down, focusing only on war and death.The thick metallic stench of Formorian bloodenveloped him.One, he mentally counted.Two.Three.War cry blaring from him, Gray sprang from hisposition and attacked the nearest creature,determined to fight it the same way he'd fought thedemons.He might not know these creatures'weaknesses but nothing could survive a slit throat.Because of the element of surprise, he was able tograb the first one-armed, one-legged beast frombehind.The creature jerked, hard, and Gray felt thewound in his thigh tear.Determinedly he gave aquick slash of his blade.The creature went limp anddropped his club, falling to the ground, thick blackblood seeping from his twitching body.One down, four more to go.By the time Gray had turned around, two othercreatures were flying toward him, fury darkening theirugly features.Seconds before they reached him, heducked low and grabbed both of them by their ankle.They pulled and struggled against his hold, but hepivoted, slashed up with his feet, using the creatures'elevated height to anchor him as he kicked themsenseless.Both dropped to the ground, gasping for breath, andhe cut both their necks at the same time.The leaderscreeched an unholy sound that rocked the walls."Come and get me," he spat.Club raised, the Formorian stalked toward him.Gray's lips were curling into a slow smile until hesaw Jewel race from behind the screen.His grindied as a sense of rage and helplessness sproutedinside him.She'd haphazardly wrapped her robe around herbody and it billowed at her ankles, flapping with hermovements.She had her blade raised, ready tobattle.Her name was poised at the edge of his lips, readyto scream it out and command her to hide, to returnbehind the screen.But he didn't want to draw anyattention to her.He didn't mind dying himself, buthe'd be damned if he'd let Jewel receive even thesmallest scratch.A Formorian sensed her presence and turnedaround, club raised.The leader was still flying towardGray, Jewel was still racing toward the other.Graystarted running, too, and when he was almost uponthe leader, he jumped up and slammed his feet intothe bastard's chest, shooting him backward.Gray didn't slow, but the world seemed to slowaround him.An agonizing slowness with a reality thatthere was only one thing he could do sinking intohim.And if he failed, if he missed& Jewel would bedead.He kept moving, sprinting toward her and thefinal combatant.The two were almost upon each other.Jewel'sattacker was reaching back with his club just as Graydrew back his arm to throw his knife.He was suddenly grabbed from behind with a singlehand.Sharp nails dug into his shoulder, tugging himbackward.Gray's blade flew out of his hand, butmissed its intended target completely.As he fell, hewatched through horrified eyes as Jewel slammedinto the other beast
