A Deadly Vow (Fate of Vengeance, #1)

by J.D. Ronan

Keahi kept his eyes trained on me as he lowered his lips, hovering over the side of my neck with a deep restraint, dipping his lips into my blood softly with a full body shudder. “Which one of them caused this wound?” Keahi’s words muffled through time as he spoke out loud. His fingers traced the four puncture sites of my abdomen as he drank from me. “Which. One.” The magic he bore crossed over in waves as I felt our connection through the bond strengthen. It was so powerful I felt it tearing at my soul, restitching itself with his. Keahi swept his thumb across his bottom lip and slowly placed it in his mouth. The dragon’s wings arched up as a pained moan slipped between my teeth. “Which one is it, my little liar? Or I will make sure that no one else in this room survives the night.” The power building within him at the blood offering was spiraling out of control. I sucked in a sharp breath as he lifted away, dizzied by the power rippling from him. My skin burned where his lips had touched me. On second thought. . . He leaned back, running his tongue across his bottom lip, staring at my neck. I might just kill them all.
