"My pretty little head ?" I deadpan, equal parts amused and insulted.
Smirking, he lifts a shoulder in an innocent gesture. "What ? It is pretty."
"I'm also kind of a badass witch now."
"You're that and more." Hooking an arm around my waist, he flips us so I've taken his place on the bed and he's hovering over me. "Owner of my body. Ruler of my mind. Commander of my soul, and queen of my heart."
"We'll call a council meeting to discuss how we should proceed. Above all else, our kingdom need justice."
"Our kingdom," she repeats, giving me a soft smile. "I like the sound of that."
Damon makes a noise close to a gag. "I thought we were going to battle today. All this mushy stuff is giving me the willies. I'll just be over here. Alone. Without a mate. By myself."

"You'll have to excuse my poor manners. I'm Damon, king of The Dream Realm and your dream come true."
"Just say the word."
This is it - the moment my life begins or ends.
I take a deep breath. "Now."
As he saunters away, I admire his backside. "I hate to see you go, but I love to watch you leave."
From dawn 'til dusk, from dusk 'til dawn, I'll never love another.
The good ole trip and fall method. When in doubt, trip it out.
