In the stillness, with his closeness, Sarah felt the scent of his skin tingling in places she had never felt before. It was wrong to have a man she barely knew in her bed, but it felt right and thrilling. It made her want to nestle into him. "Someone might come in," she whispered, unsure of how to ask him to leave.
A small smile appeared on his handsome face as he moved closer, taking in the floral scent around her like a budding rose. "Perhaps I should have approached you more appropriately. Would you allow me to court you, Sarah?" he murmured, his lips almost touching hers, desire evident in his gaze. He desired her like never before and couldn't wait, not even for a day.
It wasn't because Draven was a vampire; after all, she was half human herself. It was the certainty in his gaze that he wanted this. "I'm certain the entire castle would be in an uproar if they knew a vampire was courting me."
