now that she touched his wings with her legs. When his arms pulled her into his warm and gentle embrace, she felt more relaxed than ever before.

Chapter 9
     
    Aledyan couldn't help but to wonder if he was dreaming. The moment she moved closer and let him hold her emotions flooded him. His head was spinning, his heart was beating like never before and his body was slowly heating up. For a second, he thought he would pass out. It was too much, it was overwhelming, but at the same time it was the best thing he had experienced. It was amazing, how an embrace, could make him feel like he was back in heaven. It made him wonder what it would feel like to get even closer to her, but he didn't take the next step. There wasn't much time before the warlock would show up and drain him of his life force, but Aledyan didn't want to force Inez into anything. The decision had to be hers because he knew what would happen once she had accepted him ... The thought of it sent a cold chill through his body.
    Somewhere in the back of his mind he knew that the warlock was laughing. Torturing him was one of the activities the warlock amused himself with every ten years.
    It had only been a half day since Inez walked inside this cave, but he was already willing to fight for her, to keep her safe and make sure that no one hurt her. But he knew he would be the first one to do just that.
    He hadn't seen it at first. He had been too tire d, too weak, but he saw it now.
    She was his chosen one.
    His hands went gently up and down her back. They didn't say a word for a long time, but his mind worked fast. If she agreed to give herself to him, he would do everything to save her. He would make sure that his curse would not become hers ... somehow ...

Chapter 10
     
    Inez couldn't believe that she considered helping him, to do what he asked of her. The thought made her body tingle all over from anticipation.
    Everything about him was appealing and just right. He had a body to die for , and his deep gaze send pleasant chills through her. No other man had managed to do that before, but there was also something else. It was the sadness, the loneliness and the pain in his eyes that made her feel as if she needed to take care of him. She really needed to. He still looked weak, and far from able to do anything.
    Inez winced, and realization struck her.
    What the heck was she thinking? Yes, her body wanted him, but her head should know better. Getting involved in this was not a good idea. She should get up, walk out and never look back while she still had the chance. Who knew what would happen once he was free. Would he just fly away and leave her, make her feel used and tossed aside?
    Inez pushed herself away from his arms and their gazes met. It was as if he already knew what was going through her head.
    “I'm sorry,” he said. “I shouldn't have touched you.”
    Inez put a lock of her hair behind her ear. “Don't worry about it.”
    She got up on her feet and walked away from him, but she could feel his gaze follow her around. She needed to think, and above all, she needed to know more. According to Aledyan the warlock would return within a day or two, and that awakened many questions in her head.
    “What will happen when t he warlock returns?” she asked.
    “I ha ve already told you.”
    “Yes, he will take your life force to live for another ten years, but I meant more literally.”
    Inez avoided looking at him. She had done that when getting up, and realized she shouldn't have. There was too much disappointment written all over his face. He was hoping, but she also saw that he would never ask it of her. Instead, he would wait, and let her decide. That made her calmer.
    “Well, he will wait until I'm strong enough before he shows up. He will bring some of his men with him, just in case, even if he knows that I can't escape, but it's all about intimidating me and having fun at my expense. He will also bring a small, magical urn. He will leave the urn
