His body was still humming with pleasure, his mind whirling with possibilities.Would escape truly be an option? He knew Nitara would do whatever she could. He felt in his gut that she would be true to her word. If he did manage to get out of this alive, she would go with him.He couldn’t think any further than that. He understood too much depended on her siblings’ willingness to help. And that if either of them were more loyal to the temple than to their sister, it could mean death for both him and Nitara.The idea of his own death didn’t scare him. Death was part of the cycle of human existence, something a warrior and hunter faced every day. But he couldn’t bear to think of anything happening to her.His body yearned for her, his cock hard again already. But his heart yearned just as much.This girl had touched him deeply. Her innocence. Her sweetness. Her sincerity. His feelings for her were different than what he felt for Dhatri, his partner of ten years. His love for Dhatri was deep and abiding, strong with history.
