“No, we’ll do this together. Red, take Azura and Monica home. Raven?”

“I’m staying to help,” I said firmly.

“Okay.” Uncle didn’t argue, and I was relieved. Damon looked down, and I frowned, concerned.

You okay?

Yeah, I am,he replied through the link.

Our eyes met, and he gave me a wink. He was shaken by what happened… and something told me that would be the start of mending the rifts between them. I sure hoped so, anyway.

I looked at Liam, who was looking down at me with unmasked adoration in his eyes that were still shining magnetic blue. My heart skipped a beat, and I raised my eyebrows.

“What is it?” I asked.

“You look beautiful. Even with that cake in your hair,” he teased, and just like that, I felt like everything was going to be completely fine.

We returned tothe Westwood home two hours later. We had helped clean up, including getting the glass from inside the bedrooms cleaned up too. I had caught a glimpse of Dad’s body, but I didn’t want to see him.

He hated me to such an extent that he was ready to kill those important to me. It baffled me that he went for Damon and not Liam... but that was a question for another day.

I locked his bedroom door just as Liam pulled his shirt off and tossed it in the bin. His body was perfection… every ridge and muscle so deliciously flawless…

He looked at me, and my heart skipped a beat. Even the scar down his eye added to his sex appeal. Oh, Goddess… why did he look even more distracting? Those eyes of his still blazed magnetic blue. My mate.

“Join me,” he said huskily.

I blushed, nodding as I took his outstretched hand, and he led me to the bathroom. He had seen me naked when I was in heat, but… I realised that I was actually going to see him naked, too…completely.

“Nervous?” He asked huskily.

“Not at all…” I said, confidentially unzipping his pants as he slid the zip down my dress. “Your aura’s stronger.”

“Apparently, I have some special abilities, although we are yet to see what they are.” I cocked a brow.

“Your eyes are still your wolf’s, and your aura is so strong... can’t you reign it in?” I asked as I shimmied out of my dress, turning away slightly, left in nothing but my underwear.

“It is reigned in, love,” he said, taking off his pants.

My eyes fell to the front of his black fitted boxers. Goddess… I averted my gaze. The urge to take a good long look was strong, but…

I was about to step into the shower when Liam’s hands gripped my hips from behind.

“Not forgetting these?” He whispered, hooking his fingers into my panties. I gasped, feeling his naked body behind me, making my core clench and my heart thump like crazy.

“Maybe I wanted you to take them off,” I said softly.No, I was planning on keeping them on!

“With pleasure,” he whispered before his lips attacked my neck with passionate, hot, hungry kisses. His hands roamed my waist and stomach, making me whimper.

“Liam….” I whispered as he began kissing me down my back, sending shivers of pleasure through me. I gasped when he tugged my underwear down with his teeth, making my core throb, and I knew he could smell my arousal…Fuck…

“You’re mine, Raven,” he growled possessively.

I gasped when his fingers brushed my inner thigh. His teeth grazed my hip as he peeled my underwear off, and I bit my lip as the fabric slid out from my ass cheeks ever so slowly.

“Yours,” I whispered, unable to resist the way my body arched at his touch. My panties dropped to the floor, and Liam stood up.

“That’s better,” he whispered, his fingers skimming my hips. I bit back a whimper, feeling his erection prod my back.
