“Hey!”
He glanced over his shoulder at me, his expression haughty. I almost laughed.
“Are you seriously going to give me a workspace in your apartment and not bang me on the desk?”
He stalked toward me, pushed the throw off my shoulders and lifted me in his arms. My butt hit the desk and he smiled against my mouth.
“You like it.”
“Damn right I do. You didn’t have to do this, you know.”
“I want you to be happy here. I want this to beourapartment. And if you want to move somewhere new–”
I slid my hands up his chest, marveling at the feel of his muscles beneath my palms. “I want you,” I said. “Just you.”
His eyes darkened and he cupped my breasts. “I want you too.”
He spent the next few hours showing me exactly how much he wanted me, until I was limp, exhausted, and curled up against him in his bed, Lia purring between us.

Samael
My little witch opened bleary eyes the next morning, glancing at the clock on the nightstand.
“Shit, I need to get ready.”
“Where are you going?”
“I need go stake out the witches. One of them is a killer, Samael.”
She frowned, and I ran a finger over the tiny lines that appeared between her brows.
It didn’t surprise me in the slightest. Creatures of all stripes had been betraying each other for millennia. But this was the first time my little witch had seen such a betrayal firsthand.
“You will find the killer,” I said.
Danica smiled. “I like your confidence,” she studied my face and her eyes flashed. “You look very smug.”
I smiled and stretched next to her. “And why wouldn’t I be?Mylittle witch slept where she belongs all night.”
I reached out and snagged her wrist, pulling her until she fell on top of me. “Well, hello there.”
She pushed dark hair off her face, green eyes turning to slits. “I don’t have time to roll around on you right now.”
I hardened further beneath her. Was it any wonder I couldn’t get enough of this woman?
Her eyes went momentarily blurry as I arched my hips.
“What about now?”
She blew out a frustrated breath. “You play hardball.” Her gaze slid to the alarm clock and she shook her head. “I promised Kyla I’d bring breakfast. I’m not making the werewolf hungry so I can bone.”
She slid off me and I watched her with a frown.
Then I glanced down at my naked body. Still perfect.
Danica took one look at me and burst out laughing. “Not used to watching a woman walk away?”
