Heat of the Everflame (Kindred's Curse, #3)

by Penn Cole

“I gave myself to her the moment I met her, and I have not regretted it for a second. I have laid my life at her feet, and I would do it again and again, a thousand times over. She has my faith, my loyalty, my vow... I believe in her with everything that I am. There is nothing I would not do to see her fulfill her destiny. No matter the cost.”

“Touch her,” he snarled, throaty and vicious, “and I’ll peel every last vein from under your flesh and strangle you with them.”

“If something happens to you, I’ll suffocate this entire fucking realm in darkness.”

I could live with being her villain, if it kept her alive.

“Shall I get on my knees for you?” he murmured against my mouth. “Or would you rather I force you to your knees for myself?”

all, I will survive for you. My body can be carved in two, open and dying, and still I will crawl from the ruins of my flesh and fight my way back to your side. Death itself could not keep me away.
