to give you what you deserve as I do. I've told you before. She only cares for the soul you carry.”

Damien glared at her, his eyes rolling at the toxic words she'd just spouted.

Lilith rose  up from the bed in a single smooth motion. “I know what is hiding behind those beautiful jeweled eyes of yours,” Lilith said, flipping her platinum bangs out of her face before continuing.

“From the smell of you, I can tell you hadn’t even had sex with her yet. So tell me something, why is that? If you were Lucius instead of Damien, do you think she would have waited? I don’t think so. What exactly do you think you mean to her? If you didn’t have Lucius’ soul inside of you, she would never care you existed. She would have given herself to...”

Lilith spit the name out in contempt. “Alexander Kain.”

Damien's heart skipped a beat in his chest, his blood cold in his veins. He knew Jill and Kain had history but he didn't know she'd once loved him and entertained the idea of becoming his mate.

“I don’t believe you.” Damien spoke low through clenched teeth. His fists balled up as he fought the overwhelming rise of betrayal and hurt in his chest.

Lilith rose from the bed, closing the distance between them in only a few short seconds. She pressed her breasts into his chest, her pelvis she placed against his.

Taking Damien’s jaw in her hands, she leaned in close enough she could have kissed him if she wanted. Her eyes half-closed under dark eye shadow as lust darkened her red eyes.

“Why else would she just happen to be in the exact same place just as he was about to get killed by Rayes? What makes you think she's not still in love with him? That she’s only entertaining you until you die so she can be with him? Stay with me, Damien. I would give you everything you could ever want. Everything a human heart lusts for would be yours in an instant. I would even welcome your father into my coven. He would never be changed unless you or he asked.”

Pain set his heart on fire, the blood rushed from his head as Damien tried to shake away the thought that Jill wasn't coming for him. He'd given her everything he'd never given to anyone else; opened his heart so deep to her. It would devastate him to learn she was just using him.

“No.” Damien shook the negative thoughts away as he held on to every time Jill looked at him with sadness, her eyes full of longing that he would accept her love for him every time he saw her. Her willingness to take things slow and get to know him.

The night she listened to him as he struggled to tell her the secret he’d held onto.  No one who doesn't love someone would do what Jill had done.

“Excuse me?”

“I said no. Jill’s done nothing but proven her love to me. Unlike you who constantly threatens to make me something I don't want to be. If I had the ability to choose who I would put my trust in, it wouldn't be you, Lilith.”

Lilith's eyes flashed red as she dragged Damien over to her bed and threw him down, locking his hands above his head with one of hers. The other tore the shirt open as though it were paper.

“It doesn't really matter. I've been kind long enough. After I meet tonight with some of the elders from my cousin's coven, I will be sinking my fangs into your throat whether you want it or not. Then we'll see how much your dog loves you. Maybe she'll be merciful and end your life.”

Damien tried to struggle against Lilith's hold, knowing full well it was futile. He flinched when her hand went between his legs, rubbing him.

“Maybe I'll enjoy you first. Might be fun to feel the warmth of your body against mine. I hear your blood is quite rich to the taste. Either way, cherish your last few hours of being human, Damien Pierce. Soon you will belong to me.” She licked her ruby, red lips, bending down to kiss the side of his neck.

Her lips were cold when they met his. Her tongue forced its way into his mouth so she could taste every part of him she could reach.

“So sexy. I can't wait to bind you to me for all of time.”

Lilith pulled away, ending her forceful kiss. The hold on his hands released.

Before Damien had the time to get up from the bed, she was gone. The door locked from the outside behind her.

He walked over to the window, furiously trying to get the feeling of Lilith's kiss off of his lips. It had been forced, demanding and bitter with no love behind it at all.

To her, he was just a possession. Something she could do what she wanted when she wanted. His heart ached as the anxiety welled up inside of him to the point of making him dizzy. Jill. Please. Please hurry.

I'm coming, Damien. I can hear you. Just stay strong. Jill ran as fast as her four legs could carry her. Her chest heaved with each stride as she pushed her body beyond its natural ability to get to her lover. His blood inside of her allowed her to hear his desperate cry for help. The fear he felt burned in her chest.

Kain, Lune, Gabriel and Holt all followed closely behind her. Their hard panting served as reassurance that they supported her decision to infiltrate the coven despite how dangerous it was for them.

She knew they would have to make it before dawn or they would be too late. Lilith wouldn't wait past the night to turn Damien. In her mind, she'd waited too long and would most
