"Let me have this," Valerian said as he reached for my dagger that was still in my thigh holster. "We have not done this before, don't you think, Domi?" He grazed the tip of my dagger towards my jaw, enough to graze a wound on it.
I hissed silently, feeling my libido rise from the danger waving in front of me. "No... Not yet..."
An instinct of threatened as an Alpha slayer was kicking in, wanting to snatch that dagger from him.
"Don't move." I looked up at him, hearing his tone firm and cold. Blood rushed to my face when Valerian knew what I was about to do. He must have noticed that I was becoming wary that he was pointing my dagger in my direction.
My eyes shifted from him and to the dagger. My chest couldn't stop from rising up and down. Taking my eyes off the dagger was hard because it threatened my life.
