His finger pressed my lips to silence me. __o, tell me, my beautiful, little demon, how does it feel? Did you enjoy seducing Caleb to get what you wanted? Or were you so enraptured by the green of his eyes that you longed for his tongue in your mouth and his hands on your body?_ I gasped, but he went on before I could respond. __ruthfully, I__ prefer the former, because it would mean since he__ bailed on the deal, I__ the only one left to help you. I must warn you, however, it__ going to take a whole lot of seduction to get me to help you now.

I__l deal with the consequences one way or another, but I__ sick and tired of sitting back and wondering __hat if._ I__e been a puppet for too long. Now that I know I have the potential to fight, I need to cut the strings and do something about it. There__ a reason I was created the way I was. I have to believe that, and I have to seek out my purpose.

The wolves wait for you, little lamb.

They__e my peace offering for starting over. I gave you one once before, only to deceive you in the most unimaginable way. But not this time, this time, I assure you, my intentions are pure.___o, you__e not trying to seduce me?_ I asked, only to prolong what I knew was coming. I wasn__ sure I was ready for it. His lids were getting heavy and I could feel the sexual tension building between us. There was a gentle pressure at the back of my neck, pulling me closer, his face so close I could smell the wine we shared on his breath. __ said my intentions were pure. That doesn__ mean I don__ intend to seduce you, Cassie.

None of us asked for this life. I, of all people should know that our paths were chosen for us and we were just along for the ride, doing what was necessary and expected. There were far greater forces at work here. He was playing my heartstrings, which sang a sad melody I felt deep in my soul. For the first time, I could see him for who and what he was now. Even the worst incarnations of evil could change, and from this point forward, I would try to honor that. He was willing to put his life back in the line of fire to help me, and at the very least, he deserved my respect for that. Maybe even a second chance.

I focused on his eyes and really locked onto them. I could feel myself falling into a world of blue that wiped the chills from my body and filled my heart with warmth. The depths I could see in his eyes were far more than any hallucination could create. I recognized them as the eyes I gave my heart and soul to. They were the same ones that gave me Hunter__ whole being and never looked back. There was no doubt in my mind this was the man I fell in love with. I was doing it all over again in that very moment.

Love? Yes, I do love. I never thought it was possible, hell, I never even thought about it as a Seeker. But you did something to me, Cassandra. You made me realize I still have a heart, regardless of what I__ made of. And you__e stolen it because there is nothing I wouldn__ do to be with you. But that includes staying as I am, even if I have the chance to turn.

Calix shook his head. __on__ mind him. Logan is what happens when kids don__ get hugged enough.

You know what, Hunter?_ I said, walking toward the hallway, ready to dismiss the whole hopeless conversation. __ give up. I__ just a slutty demon who uses my body to get what I need. You__e proven your point. You can go now. I__l go to Hell alone. Guess all I really need to do is give a little tongue and they__l lead me right to my father, right?

A demon__ power comes from here,_ he said, placing his fingers on my temple. __ere._ He moved his hand and placed his palm on my belly. __nd here._ His hand covered my heart, with way too much emphasis on my breast. I sucked in my breath on a gasp, causing my bosom to press into his hand even more. My eyes came up and locked with his. __ think this is the part that stopped you from pushing me away,_ he said, referring to my heart

She had become the demon, only too much, and too fast. I had an incredible urge to knock her on her ass, take her down a few notches. Turning her just got higher on the priority scale. That__ if I didn__ kill her first.

Breathing heavily near his ear as he rested his head next to mine, I whispered, __ wish we could stay this way forever.___ou only need to say the word, and I would take you away from all of this. We could make love for eternity. I can be very creative, Cassandra.

Really? That__ all you have to do to make someone go away? Like, __oof_, they__e just_ gone? Christ, had I known that, I__ have gotten rid of a lot of people by now. You__e actually pretty lucky I didn__ have this nifty gift back when we first met.

Holding my hands in his, David kissed my knuckles before he swore to me, __ will love every day of the rest of my life.

Gavin, Logan, Calix. Was there a sale on trendy names when they were born, or something?

You can only fight what you are for so long. Eventually the hand that nature has dealt you will make you become what you were meant to be. You have no control over it.

Her thoughts pulsated through him, frantic, desperate, pleading for him to stay behind.__ won____an__,_ he murmured. __f you__e going, so am I.__he exhaled a laborious sigh and flung her arms around his neck; her warm breath fanned over his skin as she tightened her grip. __f you die, Andrew, I__l track you across multiple dimensions just to say I warned you,_ she cautioned, voice tender.

She exhaled curtly. ____ a serryn. That__ all you see. I__ just something to be tortured, slain or sold off as a commodity. That__ hardly the most appealing of traits._ __ell your eyes that. Because you really shouldn__ look at me the way you do. No serryn has looked at me like that.
