Dakshana tried to wrench her hand out of his grip, but his hold on her was utterly implacable.
“What do you think I could possibly give you?”
His blue eyes gleamed like the core of a flame. “You know what I want.” He tilted his head to the side, like a quizzical bird - or a boy leaning in for a kiss.
“No. I won’t betray my friends --”
He gestured. “They’ll never know.”
She turned, and something akin to horror crossed her face when she saw her friends frozen in time.
He stepped closer, and the heat of her consumed him.
