Kinsley’s POV
I eye the mark carefully in the steam-ridden mirror. It’s been a few days since it was settled on my neck, the sight of it a wonder to my eyes, to my soul, the pinkish scar nothing like the others I have hidden all over my body.
I lean forward, a pretty sheen of light bursting the mating mark into a disarray of pink and red, like a masterpiece on my throat, a forever tainting indent of my pale skin where it shows I belong to someone.
Finally, I belong to someone.
Gentle hands work their way from my hips, centering to my abdomen before Terron’s arms hook into my ribs and his head rests at the intersection of my shoulder and neck. I fight the nerve to shudder, his hot breath trailing past my neck and creating a numbness to the mark he made.
