“The valf naturally have a chemical in their body that rejuvenates and regenerates us. It not only keeps us cleansed but allows us to heal very rapidly.” “Like when you were wounded in the woods.” She glanced up at him. “I could have only been out for hours, but when I came to you were completely healed from the man I saw bound to the forest floor.” “Most of my nature did that, however, your blood also helped. Sorry I need so much. Luckily most of the silver from the blade had bled out of me along with my blood.” She lay against the massive chest of her man/valf and listened to the sound of his heartbeat. Until that moment she hadn’t even known they possessed a beating heart, she thought of valfs as the mythical vampires that played out in the movies. “My heart beats for you.” He caressed her spine. This mindreading stuff will take some getting used to. You will get used to it. We have the rest of our lives. His fingers danced along her spine until they arrived at her ass and cupped her there.
