Angelica opened her eyes to the warm light that peeked through the curtain looking thinkings covering the window. They had small slits through which the light penetrated. She brought her free hand up to rub her eyes and the other was pinned against her body with Rayven's arm that rested around her waist. She could feel his hot breath against her neck, tickling through her hair, and the rise and fall of his chest against her bareback. Only a small movement and she realized they were completely naked under the sheets. 

After last night's experience, Rayven had just held her in his arms, both of them panting, listening to their breathing and heartbeat steadily decrease, and then she had just fallen asleep. Now her heartbeat increased again as she remembered what happened last night in detail and she became aware of every part of his body that was touching hers at the moment. 

Suddenly Rayven stirred in his sleep, his arm tightened around her pressing her body to his as if he had read her thoughts. She had never felt more thankful that he couldn't read her mind. That would be awful in this situation. 

"Rayven?" She whispered wondering if he was awake. 

She got no reply. He was sleeping. 

Carefully, she turned around, avoiding making too much contact as to not wake him. Her eyes widened when she came face to face with him. Unable to believe what she was seeing she carefully removed the hair that fell over a part of his face. 

Oh, Lord. He was completely healed and he was mesmerizing. She ran her fingers over the side of his face where the scars used to be. The skin was smooth under her fingers. There was only a little faint scar near his ear. It was a line that followed the edge of his face as if he had tried to peel the skin of his face completely. She frowned, thinking of how painful that would have been or must have been if he had done it. She hoped not. 

Her fingers slowly moved down to his lips and she remembered his fangs. An odd feeling came over her. She didn't fear them but...there was still something bothering her. Something locked in her mind, somehow trying to come up to the surface. Angelica forced herself to think and then she remembered something. An image, the tip of a fang pricking a finger, 

a gentle smile reaching the eyes. Mysterious catlike eyes. She could not be mistaken. 

It was Constantine. 

Why was he smiling at her? 

She tried to remember more but her mind went blank. Now, she was utterly confused. 

Rayven stirred again, but he was still sleeping. From his relaxed face, she could tell he was having a good sleep so she decided to not disturb him. Carefully she removed his arm and then got out of bed holding one of the sheets around her body. She felt strange walking with a little soreness between her legs. 

Once she was in the bathroom, she brushed her teeth and rinsed her mouth before getting into the shower. Angelica felt like she was wasting water but she would just wash up a little. She put her hair up since she had only washed it yesterday and then opened the water. It took her a while to adjust it to the right temperature and meanwhile the steam covered the glass door. She wondered what the point of the door was if it didn't hide her. 

Angelica got under the water while avoiding her hair from getting wet. The lukewarm water felt so good rushing against her skin that she let it run longer than she intended while gently rubbing her neck and shoulders. Her thoughts drifted away to Rayven caressing her with his masterful hands and her heartbeat picked up slowly before skipping a beat when she suddenly heard the door to the shower open. 

Turning around she found Rayven standing at the door. Naked. Her heart went wild as he stepped inside and closed the door behind him, his gaze running over her like hot liquid. 

He stepped closer and her lips just so she could breathe when he wrapped one arm around her waist and pulled her against his chest. 

"You could have woken me to help you with this," he said his fingers reaching for the bun on her head. He let her hair down and stepped forward so that she stepped back under the water. Another step back and the water poured over both of them. 

Rayven took her mouth with his in an eager, deliberate kiss. His large hands traveled up her bare back, one getting into her hair, holding her head in place as he deepened the kiss. Angelica shuddered, her hands grasping the muscles on his arms as he ravished her mouth. As if he never touched her or kissed her last night and had been starving to have her. 

He broke the kiss, "why do I want you more for each day?" he breathed against her lips but didn't wait for her to reply. He kissed her again and Angelica knew he wanted her without him saying. She could feel him pressing hard against her and she lost her breath. 

She had to pull away from him to breathe but his lips were eager and moved down to her neck. Angelica's head fell back with a sigh as her fingers got into his now wet hair. God, he wasn't like this with her last night. What was happening?

Suddenly she felt her back against the shower wall and he captured her lips again. He bit her lower lip gently, causing her insides to quiver. Her body was hot again, taut and aching for his. 

There was no nervousness this time standing in the way of the desire building in her. She knew this would feel good even if pain was involved. Rayven's kisses moved down her jaw and to her neck again. His mouth never felt so good against her skin. His wet body felt even better under her palm. She touched him shamelessly and he groaned in approval. A sound that only aroused her more. And then she felt it. The graze of his fangs against her neck sent tremors down her body. 

Rayven stiffened and pulled away immediately. "I am sorry," he breathed looking frightened. 

He misunderstood her. She trembled for a different reason. It was as if his fangs touched a nerve that sent prickling heat throughout her body. 

"I am not afraid," she said. 

He studied her face as if trying to understand her but she didn't let him think for too long.. She stepped forward, wrapping her arms around him she tiptoed and kissed him.
