Caspen sat up too, and for a moment, there was silence. When he spoke, his voice was a whisper. “Do you know why I gave you a piece of myself?” He was referring to the claw. Tem had always wondered why he’d done it, what exactly it had meant to him. “No,” she said quietly….

His focus and hers returned to the mirror. It was like looking at herself through a kaleidoscope-the childish toys she had played with at the market after church-except instead of seeing a rainbow of fractured colors, she saw herself through all five senses. Suddenly she could smell her own scent-at least how she smelled to…

“I haven’t had sex yet.” Gabriel waved his fingers dismissively. “You’ve had a cock in your mouth, Tem. Some would consider that sex.” “Henry. And. Peter,” Tem hissed. “Fine, fine.” Gabriel hung another flag, his lips pursed thoughtfully. “But this discussion isn’t over.” Before Tem could protest again, Vera appeared. She shot a disapproving look…

She stood suddenly still, no longer struggling as Jonathan stepped closer, stroking his cock with one hand. “Come on then,” he said with a grin. “Show me.” He was just close enough to make it work. Without a second’s hesitation, Tem flung her leg up as hard as she could, crushing the hard bone of…

Tem entered slowly, her eyes struggling to adjust to the darkness. With a snap of his fingers, Caspen lit a torch, and suddenly she could see the room they had entered. It was massive.

“I don’t need to fuck you,” she said softly, her lips grazing his throat. “I don’t even need to take my clothes off. You want me so badly, you’d marry me just for the chance to see me naked. Am I wrong?” Tem didn’t know where her courage came from. She was risking everything on…

Tem felt a surge of accomplishment. Now she was getting somewhere. Tell me more. Are you in the castle? No answer. Tem tried again. How can I find you? Still no answer. The roast chicken was cleared away and replaced with a white layer cake. The butler refilled her wine. Between the conversations around the…

A dull wave of panic threatened to overtake her as she held her breath, momentarily terrified that he wouldn’t answer. Then: Tem. She felt sick. He must have sensed this, because he asked, What is the matter, Tem? There was no other way to say it. I’m about to spend sixty seconds with the prince….

He rubbed the back of his hand over his mouth, smearing the lipstick even more. “Nothing worth having.” “Oh, please.” “Sixty seconds with you is worth an hour with Vera,” he said quietly. Tem shrugged with an indifference she did not feel. Leo stood unsteadily, grasping the table for balance. Tem had never seen him…
