her head so that her lips met his.
    Fin tensed; she was sure he was going to pull away. She felt sorry if she frightened him away, but this was the closest she had ever felt to another living creature, and once she accepted that, she wanted more of him. She placed her hand on his cheek and he relaxed, kissing her back, at first uncertain and then with more fire, more passion.
    Her body reacted in ways she had never experienced, her nipples hardening, pressing against his hard chest. While between her thighs heat pooled, making her wet and needy for him. She ached to be touched. For his large, strong, capable hands, the hands that had so deftly saved her yesterday, to now please her body.
    Fin grew hard against her, his cock growing in length and girth as it filled. Damn, he was so big. He both scared her and made her excited to experience the unknown. What would it be like to lie with him? For him to fill her aching sex and bend her to his will. Their kiss deepened, his tongue probing her mouth, she parted her lips for him and he slipped his tongue inside. She met him with her own, sucking on him until he groaned and shifted his hips to press harder against her thigh.
    Was this it? Was this going to be her first time with a man?
    No. He pulled away, once more avoiding her gaze. “You should sleep” was all he said. The moment had passed, and she knew to press him for more would be to push him away. This was new to him, as it was to her, and time was what they both needed.
    So Sybil closed her eyes, but before she slept, she thought through what had happened and came to two decisions. One about her visions and one about Fin. She only hoped they were compatible.
     

Chapter Nine – Fin
    Fin could not sleep. He simply held her in his arms and listened to her breathing. For a long time she had lain awake, but now the peaceful rise and fall of her chest told him she had found rest. He watched over her, waiting to wake her if another nightmare took hold of her. All the time, he thought of her lips on his and how she had tasted, so sweet, so pure. Too good for a monster like him. If he wasn’t so concerned about her safety, he would have got up and left, returning to his lonely labyrinth so that she would never be tempted by this handsome face he wore as a mask.
    Instead, he held her close, feeling the warmth of her body against his. As the daylight grew brighter and filled the room, he began to relax. Surely, no one would attack them in the day. He could afford himself a few hours’ sleep now, so that when they woke later, they could go over to the Dragon Stronghold before his watch began again tonight.
    Stray thoughts entered his mind, pushing and probing him until he could ignore them no longer. Would he sleep here tonight, with Sybil wrapped in his arms? As his eyes closed and he drifted off to sleep, he wondered what it would be like to sleep with her every night, to make love to her every night. He kept reminding himself that those kinds of things didn’t happen to creatures like him.
    But a Minotaur can dream, can’t he?
     

Chapter Ten – Sybil
    They had slept until late afternoon. The sun was beginning its descent in the sky by the time they had made it to the kitchen to eat breakfast.
    “Pancakes?” she asked.
    “I don’t know what pancakes are,” he said clumsily.
    “Then you are in for a treat. They are the perfect way to start the day and also good for a sweet treat, and judging by the time of day, we are entitled to both.” She smiled at him, feeling happier than she had for a long time despite the increased danger she was in. With Fin here, filling up her tiny kitchen with his well-toned frame, nothing could hurt her.
    Or so she thought, but a knock at the door nearly made her drop the egg she was about to break. They looked at each other, and Fin came around to stand between her and the door.
    “If anything bad comes through that door, you go and lock yourself in the bathroom. Do not open the door
