“Yeah, I sure do.”

Then he carried her into the bathroom vampirically. She turned on the water, and then they began kissing and washing up. But the next thing he knew, she was scraping her teeth on his neck. And he quickly realized she needed to bond in the vampire way, and he was all for it.

“Bite me,” he said.

And she did. Then she sucked a little and he felt the intense pleasure racing through his whole body. He had to admit that ability was something he had never thought he would experience in his lifetime. She sealed the bite marks with a stimulating lick and then she offered her neck to him. He was so ready to make love to her again! He licked her neck before he sank his teeth in and then he drew about the same amount of blood from her. She moaned with delight. He sealed her wounds, then he lifted her up, she wrapped her legs around his hips, and he penetrated her with his full arousal.

“You light my fire,” she mouthed against his lips.

“With you, once is never enough.” Then he was thrusting inside of her, enjoying the close connection they had when they were making love under the hot water. Princess purred outside the shower as if she finally realized where they had gone to.

He rocked into her until he finally climaxed again and for a moment, he just held her tight. He loved how when they were through, they still kept the connection, proving it was more than just sex.

He set her on the floor of the shower, and they soaped up, kissing other. Being with her was like being in heaven. Once they left the shower, they dried each other off, which added to the intimacy between them. Princess hurried off.

He was glad Jacqueline had said yes to marrying him. They kissed and he could have let her walk on her own, but he loved lifting her in his arms and carrying her to bed. Especially after all they had been through.

“You are the most romantic man I’ve ever known,” Jacqueline said, cuddling with him in bed.

“You are the sexiest woman I’ve ever known and the love of my life.”

Suddenly, Princess hopped on the bed at Dane’s back and they both chuckled.

“It appears she was waiting for everything to get quiet so she could join us in bed,” Jacqueline said.

“At least I have you in my arms for the night.”

“For sure.”

The next morning, Dane and Jacqueline just laid in bed, snuggling, loving being together. Princess left the mattress when she got too hot. “Okay, we need to learn if you were set up when that vampire turned you. Whoever it was, he needs to face the consequences. Maybe it’s someone else you haven’t considered. Or even informant Green was just loyal to Lucilla, or she might have even ordered him to do it. Wouldn’t that make more sense?”

“Yeah, it does.”

She ran her hand over Dane’s bare chest. “What if this has to do with a completely different situation than you’re thinking of? I mean, what would anyone hope to gain if they set you up for the ambush? You ended up being turned into a vampire. What was the worst thing you lost?”

“Being a full hunter.”

“And? Your brothers stuck by you, but my family hadn’t. But we both lost the people we were engaged to.”

He snapped his fingers. “Moose had always wanted to date my fiancée. He was so angry when I asked her to marry me, she said yes, and her family was all behind our marriage. Until I was turned. Hell. He wouldn’t have dared do that. If they learn he was behind that, he would be putting his own life in danger.”

“Yeah, but maybe he didn’t realize Lucilla was going to turn you and keep her for her own. Maybe he thought she would just kill you with her vampire minions and then no one would ever know that was the deal.”

“Hell.”

“But that’s just conjecture. How can we prove something like that? I mean, other than the fact he is dating your ex. Talk to him? Or, wait, what about talking to informant Green?”

“That’s it!” Dane said. “We can make him tell us what was really going on. I always forget we can make humans do what we want.”

“I know. It seems like it’s something illegal that we’re doing. But really, we’re not. It’s like giving them a truth serum and then they just tell us the truth about the situation.”

“Yeah. I agree, though it’s hard to remember that we can do that sometimes.”

“Too bad we can’t control a hunter’s mind to learn the truth from the proverbial horse’s mouth,” Jacqueline said.

“True. But if Green will tell us the truth, that’s all we need.”
