House Of Legions (The Angel Descendants book 1)

She didn’t need her brother’s knowledge, to know that this man was incredible, there was a deep yearning when she touched him, “You think I’m incredible.”

She could hear the amusement in his voice, he sounded English, but it wasn’t distinctive, his voice was soothing, a fluent tone, something deep and masculine, deeper than Kalbreal’s. Confidence poured through his words, her mind whirled with the realization, had he just read her thoughts, she should have been nervous, or scared, but instead, she was aroused.

Her mind had come to its senses moments later when he removed his hand. She was levitated in the air. Just as the thought registered, the gravity pulled her down to the ground. She braced for the impact of the fall. The awaited pain never came, because her mysterious stranger, who enchanted her with his touch, had caught her in his arms.

He held her like she was a weightless bride, hand brushing her nape, sending chills down her spine, she lost herself by the intensity of his actions.

His other arm gripped under her knees. This man-made her nervous, and highly aware of all his caresses and touches. She tried to see his face, now that she was cradled against his firm, hard chest, but the hood was pulled down and it was so dark she couldn’t make out anything besides his eyes. Its colour was not shadowed by the darkness of the hood, it was illuminating, the colour of the night sky with the billions of stars lighting its hue, mesmerizing.

“You can read my mind?”

Putting her down, he brushed his fingers on her lips, she closed her eyes, waiting, expecting him to kiss her, the neck slanted, her invitation obvious, lost to his touch, slave to his want. When his hand dropped, instead, she opened her eyes. A stab of disappointment assailed her, was it something she said. Before she could speak and ask, she saw the descendants as they stood in utter shock. Reality clicked, where they were. The others must’ve seen everything, she held back her groan, at what an awful daughter she was, allowing herself to be consumed by this man, who just saw it quite okay to hide his face from her, and manipulate her body to bend to his will.

When he was sure they were away from the others he whispered, “Something wasn’t right, I felt it, it’s the first time I’ve seen that, I don’t want you talking to anybody about this just yet, not even our father, nobody saw much, they were put in a trance, Kalbreal no doubt.”
