"If you have to… I won't resist." She said.
Slowly, he opened his eyes and turned to her. Grabbing her wrist, he drew her gently into his arms. Heaven's heart beat erratically inside her chest. Butterflies filler her stomach and her breath came out in shallow pants. Was she excited or afraid she didn't know?
"You are afraid." He said.
"I am… nervous." She admitted.
Heaven knew that mating was something serious. She shouldn't take it as lightly as she was now.
"I told you, I would rather kill you than mark you." He reminded.
"You don't look like a killer." She said.
He chuckled darkly. "I have killed many of your people. I can't even count how many. I just burned down villages."
Heaven was confused. Why did he decide to burn them? "But witches can protect themselves from fire. At least for a while. I am sure they managed to escape."
"Maybe. But they lost their homes, like I lost mine."
