"I'm not playing any game," I whispered, ignoring my torn shirt and the exposed, heaving breasts, meeting those deep blue eyes. "You're the one who can't stay away."
His hand slammed against the wall beside my head, the other pinching my nipple. "Then tell me to stop."

And bloodlines.

Ash remembers.

The forest did not devour her. It bowed.
The flame did not die. It waited.
Until, in the silence between heartbeats, something older than gods whispered:
“She is not blessed. Sh...
