Darkness. It was the one thing she’d dreaded since her abduction. Her hands moved forward of their own volition, while she shivered in the chill atmosphere. The corridor was cool and dark, the absence of light terrifying her. Stone rough and dry, though cool, caught her fingers and she tried to work out where she was. Xavier propelled her forward in the dark, and she knew her breath was audible, the panting sounds filling the silence. “Be careful, there are steps here.” His voice at her ear made her shiver as the fear receded. She wasn’t alone at least. In her mind, she knew her reaction was a mix of anticipation and fear, but there was also an indefinable feeling that whipped through her senses. She shivered again, and an arm pulled her closer, masculine and muscled. Warm. The roughness of his coat grazed her arm, and a sensual thrill filled her. “Let’s get you down to the chamber where there is some lighting.” His voice was deep, and she could feel the vibrations on her skin.
