    ... almost touching hers. Rayne held her breath. She’d seen the others mate with their mouths, lips rubbing, tongues dancing against each other sensuously. Was he going to kiss her? Oh, how she wished he’d wrap his arms around her. She would feel so safe, content. His ice-blue eyes bore into hers, and he opened his lips as if to say something. And then his body stiffened. His gaze flicked up to look behind her. Frowning, she turned her head to look, wondering what had drawn his attention. Just through the fronds of greenery waving lazily a few paces away, Rayne saw a glimpse of Boy Rayne’s iridescent white hair. The rays of the sun glinted off his silver mask. When he noticed them staring, he turned and disappeared from sight without making a sound. Rayne sighed dejectedly. He was still terrified of her, even though she’d tried so hard to befriend him or her. Rayne wasn’t sure what the humanoid creature was. She’d just grown accustomed to thinking it was a he . Master Lucien grasped her chin in his big hand and turned her to face him. “Why does that thing wear a mask?” Rayne swallowed. “Master, this one—“ His scowl deepened and she immediately corrected herself. “I-I don’t know, M—“ He growled. “Sir,” she finished with a pout.” “Why do you call it Boy Rayne?” She blinked up at him.

Lucien teleported himself on another rock he usually lounged on by a waterfall. No plants nearby so he didn’t risk ending up with pieces of foliage traversing his body. That was always shitty. No sooner had he let out a pent up sigh, a hand gripped his hair again and sent him sprawling back on his ass. Lucien grunted when his backside hit the hard ground. A sword tip pricked his throat. He followed the blade up to the angry scowl of its owner. “I guess it’s my day to be popular.” Ashriel sneered. “You’ve convalesced enough, now you will answer my questions.” Lucien grinned. “Convalesced? Is that what I was doing?” Lucien was sure the sword tip drew blood when it pressed against his Adam’s apple a bit harder. This time, not only did Devon appear, but the rest of the Alpha Angels—all six and Angel. “I just love family reunions,” Lucien said with a sarcastic smile. “Ash,” Anniel admonished, placing her hand at her lover’s wrist.
