explanation of why Cedric was even here to begin with, not a declaration of feelings.
    “I can see the wheels in your head turning,” Cedric said. “Whether you want me here or not, I’ve made up my mind. I’m not getting married.”
    “You speak as though any of this were important.”
    Cedric recoiled with shock. “Isn’t it?”
    Silus stepped forth. “You came for one reason and one reason only, did you not?”
    Cedric did not move or speak. He swallowed, and Silus watched the Adam’s apple of his neck bob.
    Silus stepped closer again until their chests touched, tilting his neck up, he pressed his lips to Cedric’s, brushing and lingering on his mouth. “For a night of pleasure.”
    He let his fangs loose to scrape along that plump bottom lip. Cedric shivered. “Well, yeah, but—”
    Silus would listen to no more. He pressed his mouth firmly to those compliant lips and opened his mouth for his tongue to invade Cedric’s.
    His golden sun sprite complied with no hint of protest, strong arms with light hairs winding around his shoulders, pulling their bodies closer.
    But Silus decided he did not enjoy this type of kissing. He had to lift his face up, which was an oddity to him. Apparently, being tall for a vampire still made him short to sun sprites, and he pushed Cedric back so that he fell into the wicker love seat.
    Cedric laughed at his forcefulness. “I was so disappointed we couldn’t finish last night.”
    Silus put his hands on Cedric’s shoulders. “I mean to rectify that.” He pushed him again to lie back before getting on top of his new lover and stretching his body out until comfortable. Ah, much more satisfying now that they were on equal ground. He buried his face into Cedric’s neck and suckled there, scratching with his teeth occasionally.
    What would happen if he were to take another taste?
    Cedric made a little purring noise, but it was small compared to what Silus wanted to hear. Buttons flew everywhere as Silus ripped the man’s silk shirt open and attacked his nipples. He did the same to them as he’d done to Cedric’s neck, using his tongue, scraping with his teeth, and occasionally putting in a gentle bite. This time the sounds were a little deeper, a little louder. And much more dangerous.
    He put his hand over Cedric’s mouth. “As much as I enjoy listening to you, these walls are far from soundproof.”
    Cedric kissed his palm. “Sorry. Kind of hard though.”
    He could have meant it both figuratively or literally, judging from the firm length pushing against Silus’s leg.
    Still, there could be no risk. Not yet. Not until Silus had the chance to discover just how far he wished to take this. Safety must come first. Silus unclipped his belt and pulled it free from the loops in his pants. Folding it, he held it to Cedric’s face. “Any more noise, and I shall gag you with this.”
    “Sounds exciting,” Cedric said before fisting his hand in Silus’s hair and forcing their lips together again.
    While Silus busied himself with Cedric’s mouth, occasionally rocking their still clothed hips together for delicious friction, Cedric’s hands released him to move lower between them, fumbling with his own belt and fly. The eager sprite kicked off his shoes, letting them drop to the floor, and Silus had to extract himself for a few seconds so Cedric could throw off his dark jeans. But for the shirt, which had been ripped open and was now barely hanging onto his broad shoulders, he was completely naked.
    “Should all of vampire society discover how eager to make love sun sprites are, it could end the cold war.”
    Cedric smiled, his skin brightening at the comment.
    Silus winced and raised his hand to his eyes.
    The smile and the light vanished. “Sorry.”
    “No, do not be sorry.” Silus stared at his hands, noting their lack of a red burn. “It did not hurt.”
    Shouldn’t there have at least been a burn from when he stepped out into the twilight? But verily, there was
