Arrogance and Elegance

“Asked? Is that what you call it? You didn’t ask me, you tricked me!”

Minka curled an arm around her shoulders protectively, and that was all that kept Dakshana from lunging at Chadstone and attempting to claw his throat out.

His smile was arrogant and elegant. “Why are you so surprised about that? It’s not as if I lured you into my world through my excellent powers of persuasion.” Then his voice dropped, became low and husky and sent shudders down Dakshana’s spine. “Not that my powers of persuasion aren’t...formidable.”

“You stole her first kiss!” Minka cried. “You monster!”
