skin until I was near to tears with laughter. Of course the snort ing came through which made his roaring laughter harder and deeper. By the end of our little playing on the bed we were both trying to calm down enough to form actual sentences. Then it hit me, here I was having one of the best mornings of my life, when there was still so many questions I needed answering.
    “Oh my God ... I ca n't believe I have been so self- centred! I haven't even asked you about Takeshi, is he alright?” Draven looked as though he found this endearing but I just frowned, he can't let me get away with my self ish behaviour .
    “Don't scorn yourself and you are sweet for asking but I think after everything you have endured you are entitled to a little distraction. Takeshi is fine now , he is resting. I gave him some of my energy to help him heal.” He was smoothing my hair back from my face as he spoke.
    “How did this happen to him?” I could tell he didn't want to tell me but I raised my eyes to him before he could protest.
    “Ok, I will tell you but Keira , I don't want you to obsess about something I will not allow to happen . ” I nodded to indicate he should continue.
    “Lucius is trying to poison his mind so that his actions can't be seen for what he has planned. I don't know exactly what he is going to do but one thing is for sure...he knows about you . ” This made me shudder at the thought and Draven didn't miss my reaction as he pulled me closer to him, wrapping the covers around me like a secure cocoon, making me feel like a butterfly.
    “But nothing will happen to you. He can't take you from me.” This sounded very threatening and I couldn't imagine anyone being as crazy as to want to antagonise Draven. Well apart from the obvious being Sammael.
    “But why does he even want me?” I asked bring ing him back to my eyes, which softened when they got there.
    “Bec ause my lovely, you are mine and you are my only weakness.  Y ou are a lso a very breakable human as we both know so t his puts the risks at a higher price. He will do anything to have you , to take you from me but he is not stupid and will not chance coming here himself. It just means that I will be a little more protective over you than I normally would.” He said all this without too much emotion and I knew it was to spare me worry....but because I knew this I worried anyway.
    “Ok , next question, why the Hell didn't you tell me that you had Layla here imprisoned?” Ok telling by his reaction to this question I could add another crazy person to the list of “W ho would risk making Draven angry. ” He did not look happy that I hadn't forgotten this small factor.
    “We are not going to discuss this!” He said flatly but I was not going to yield that quickly.
    “And why not? I think I have a right to know!”
    “You do not yet know enough about our ways to understand . ” He was tryin g to judge my response but what ever he saw in my face , it was not wh at he had hoped for . His face said as much.
    “Understand what?” I shook my head at him but I had a feeling I was going to regret the truth.
    “You will think our ways are barbaric and you won't look kindly on me for being the one that has to enforce such punishments. Is this something that you really want to know about?” It wasn't so much a question but more a statement as he knew that I would not. I was torn between the two Draven s I knew. I remember ed how cold he had first been to me and the sight of him fighti ng, ripping into those creatures they call ed Gorgan Leeches. How he wielded his two powerful sword s that came from his Demon form, slicing into the body that Sammael had used as a vessel. It had been a truly frightening sight.
    And of course there was the other Draven that was with me now. The one that had taught me more about the pleasures my body could endure than anyone before him . I had felt more love and passion in these past few days than in my entire life. His soft
