"Things are moving pretty quickly. There is an argument to keep it that way." Jace turned her to face him,hands rested on her shoulders
He leaned forward and whispered"it's fun sneaking out to meet you in private".She chuckled.
"Oh hail the sneaky cat" she replied gently and walked away from him. He watched her stagger backwards and collapse into a sofa. "Jace'' she sighed an exesperation noticeable in her voice
"I guess we can do that but we are going to be doing this for years or centuries.Its true am immortal and so are you but I don't think I can take that."
She leaned forward ,unbuckled her cowboy boots , tossed them away on the woolen carpet and stood up.
Jace watched her pace across the living room towards him. He stood slanting against the door, his head rested on the door frame,and glared at her walking glamorously.
He noticed the curves of her body in the right proportion,well defined by the tight dress she wore. Her silvery eyes held his longer, as she aimed at his direction, a quizzical smile gently cornering her lips
Before he knew it,she was there,her arms wrapped lazily around his neck. She raised on her toes to match his height and said" You don't have to protect me from the shadows ,or Levy,Eliza and whoever the hell Jake is. The rouge and endangered ones can't hurt me. Neither can the COUNCIL OF THE CHOSEN. But if you are scared for yourself,then that's different." Her hands fell from his neck,one tugged around his waist band and the other rested on his cheek.
" Don't forget to wait at leisure while your enemy labors" she winked at him and turned to walk away
Jace surprised by her choice of words pulled her back into his arms , unwilling to let the moment end. She totally made an excellent figure not in big things but in small ways. For a while now,she had said enough to make him go crazy for her . The facts from the tempest point to turn him from survivor to predator only in a good way.
He rested his head on hers,his nose ticking hers.
"What is it that you want Angelica miss or should I say '' Queen of the Shadows''.He couldn't avoid the fact that his voice was too husky and sounded insanely genuine. It was true. One look from her was a distraction to the minimum which he liked. He held her gaze longer,his index finger trailing the cup of her chin. She blinked rapidly and smiled,then looked away.
She squeezed him back instead,her head rested on his chest and said the words that made him smile
"I want something complicated".
