said. Just an annoying noise that sounded way too much like the adults from that old-school kids’ cartoon; “Wa, wa wa, wa wa.”  No, she didn’t have the soft lilting voice that Sera did. Which happened to be music to his ears.
    Cole cursed, angry at himself for dwelling on the one thing he couldn't have. He didn’t need this shit, and he didn’t need her. With a smirk solidly in place, he stood, catching his ginger companion by surprise as he yanked her out on the dance floor. He refused to waste another minute thinking about the unattainable. Tonight he was going be exactly what he was: a demon on the prowl. And if this redhead was lucky -and shut the hell up- she might just end up in his bed before the night was through.
     
    The days since her last encounter with Cole felt like an eternity. Could one become addicted after two meager tastes? Surely after so long, it would take more substantial samplings to render her dependent. Sera sniffed dismissively, eyeing her looking glass. 
    Just one peek .
    Her thumbnail slipped between her teeth, eyes sp arkling with innocent curiosity as her other hand reached for the mirror…
    She froze as her fingers met the glass, a deep frown forming on her face. An unexpected vision of Cole. Her heart squeezed uncomfortably in her chest. He was sharing his company with another female… in some questionable establishment … with loud music and … sweaty bodies.  She pulled her hand away and lifted her chin, sniffing indignantly as she wiped at a tear.
    Abruptly she stood, deserting her vanity to walk laps around her room. She deserved to feel this way. After all, it was her fault that things were the way they were. She should never have gone looking for Cole all those years ago. And she should never have fallen in love. She should never have left him in such a cruel manner and she certainly should not be spying on him now.
    She slid down on the floor beside her bed and hid her face in her hands. Behind closed lids, the woman Cole had been with looked back at her. Would this stranger be Sera’s ruin? What was it was about her that won Cole's attention?  She swiped at more tears as they began to flow freely. What if she loses him forever to this comely, mortal girl? She grabbed a pillow and covered her head. What a stupid question. She had already lost him years ago. A distrau ght mewl curled up her throat. It was foolish to continue pinning after him so. Her only hope was to one day find another male to take his place in her heart. A male, of course, that was just like Cole…
     
    A few more days had passed since Sera’s not-so-pleasant peek into Cole’s nightlife indulgences, yet she still seemed to need a distraction. She was not in the mood for other Seraphim company, nor was she interested in reading. Changing into her favorite silk pants and camisole, she padded barefoot over to her chamber’s music system. She did so love the songs of humans. The Gregorian Chants of her realm were ridiculously over-played.
    With a sigh, she activated the console. The sound of acoustic guitar s immediately filled her room. The melody was beautiful and the ensuing vocals sad. Sad just like her. Her eyes slid closed as her body began to sway. In her mind, she pretended she was with the one she loved...
     
    Cole’s warm arms wrapped around her, pulling her close as they swayed to the music. Her arms, in turn, draped happily around his neck. With their feet barely moving, their bodies moved as one. One heart. One soul. One love.
    His palm pressed her head to his shoulder, allowing him to breathe her in. Sera’s heart leapt. She could feel his heat, his hard body. And his scent, Dear God, it was incredible, just as she remembered it; midnight and wild fires and sinful seduction. She pressed herself closer and murmured against his warmth. “I miss you so much.”
    Into her ear, he sighed, “As I do you, Sera.”
    In perfect unison, their bodies moved, turning in lazy circles as the
