Chapter 58

Abruptly lifting his head, he met her stunned gaze.

"Are you seriously out of your mind?" Lily glared at Rhye.

"Nope!"

"Then why the hell do you keep doing that?" she muttered, her cheeks flushed with a heat she couldn’t hide.

Rhye growled deep in his throat. "If I knew, I would no doubt be falling on the nearest stake."

"Kids, kids! There you are." Stomping from the cave, Stephen regarded them with a jaundiced frown, his silly wings twitching in aggravation. "I thought you’d abandoned me. Again."

Rhye swallowed a snarl, resisting the urge to toss the little demon into the river below. His body might howl at the interruption, but the pea-sized part of his brain that was still functioning realized that he was allowing himself to be perilously distracted by his strange fascination with Lily.

Christ, he was going to get them both killed.
