“There is a rebellion brewing amongst the slaves, and they have a plan to burn the giants’ barracks. They want to start soon because the giant lords are turning on the king,” Ra’Sa says gently.

My eyes go wide. “Really? I’d only ever heard rumblings.”

He nods.

“You need to tell Estela that,” I say.

His head tilts to the side. “You really like her, don’t you?”

“She’s one of my… friends,” I say, eyebrows furrowed. “The gem I want to give to the girls came from her. She’s the first person who ever gave me a gift. It was a necklace.”

Ra’Sa considers this. “Then I will need to work on finding you some trinkets.”

I grin, and inch closer to his warmth.

His hand goes back to my ass. “I will send the message in a minute.”

That mischievous hand ventures lower.

I sigh, but my heartbeat picks up.

“If you make a sound, we are dead."

He reaches for the closure of his pants and huffs. “Is that a yes?”

I meet his eye and say, “Only if you make me come on your cock again.”

His eyes look like blue flame, and he shifts completely as he removes his clothes a second time. Two bright marks glow on the side of his neck. I’d seen them before in Enduvida.

Mating marks.

Oh my.

My thoughts are silenced when his tail reaches towards me and rips off the blanket.

For a second, I marvel at him, not as a man any longer, but an Enduar.

Terrifying.

Enticing.

He wraps his tail around one of my legs, pulls it away from the other, and then sinks into me.

“In a week, we could be home. I’m going to give our family everything.”

I cover his mouth. “Shh.”

He nips against my fingers and then covers my mouth.

I smile as we start to move.

And gods, I swear I see the stars in the heavens as if they danced in this very room.
