Chapter 304
Skyler POV

The man towered over Kala eclipsing her small frame. He was very handsome but something about him seemed unhinged. He looked over to the dead demon and then looked to me,

"Did you do that?" he asked.

"Not really. I'm not some warrior chick that lopped off the monsters head." I said in all honesty.

"Her blood is lethal to demons." Kala said.

"And did you know that before the monster died?" Jac asked Kala.

Kala shook her head. Jac swore and grabbed Kala's shoulder's,

"You could have died Kala! Our children would have been motherless. " Jac said angrily.

"I trust my visions Jac- unlike you! I knew Skyler would pull through."

Before Jac could reply Rayne shimmered in front of me. Jac grabbed Kala protectively. Both the men stared at each other. Gently I touched Rayne's shoulder.

"It's okay. Kala saved me." I said.

Rayne looked at me his fingers gently touching the cuts on my face,

"How did this happen?" He asked.

I pointed to the corpse of the demon monster. Rayne looked at it.

"I killed one a couple of days ago. Why did you not come to me for help?" Rayne asked.

"Good question." Jac added staring at Kala.

Kala threw her hands up into the air, "Because Skyler was the one destined to kill it. She needed to kill it for us to find out about her blood. "

Rayne went to touch an open wound on face muttering, "What is wrong with your blood?"

"Don't touch me!" I panicked.

Rayne withdrew away from me his eyes full of hurt. It never occurred to me until then that my blood could be poisonous to Rayne. One drop could kill him. How would we over come it? What if I accidently bit my lip and kiss him, or caught the egde of my tongue- a single kiss would kill him. Stepping back away from him Rayne painfully watched me putting a good distance between us.

"You can't come near me Rayne. My blood is poisonous to demons. One drop would kill you." I explained.

Rayne face hardened ignoring Jac and Kala he pulled me into his arms and jumped off the ground and into the air. Two huge black wings thumped against the air propelling us into the night sky angrily I yelled at him,

"You're going to get yourself killed!"

I was covered in grazes where I had fallen through the window payne on to the road. There wasn't a lot of blood but it was enough to kill that horrible black monster thing. Closing my eyes I rested head against his shoulders and muttered, "Idiot, let me go."

Rayne dived back towards the earth, wind whistled around us. I held on tightly, until he stepped back on solid ground. Opening my eyes I could see we were high up in the mountains. Snow lightly dusted the ground glittering in the moon light. I turned to Rayne and was surprised to see him lifting up his top. He took one look at me and said, "Take off your clothes."

I blinked in shock.

"Excuse me?"

Rayne repeated the order, "Strip off."

My whole face was on fire.

"Are you crazy! What the hell is wrong with you! Its freezing up here. I need to go home and sort out these cuts. And you need to stay away from me."

"That's not happening." He said throwing me over his shoulder.

Clenching my fists I beat at his back, "Put me down!"

"Its not happening, darling."

"Rayne, my blood can kill you."

"I don't believe you." He said flatly.

My mind was spinning. He saw the dead demon. Why was he being so obstinate? Suddenly he dropped me. Splash. I sank into warm bubbling water that soothed my cuts and grazes. Rayne slid into the hot spring beside me and swam to the other side.

"I told you to take off your clothes." He said brushing his wet black hair out of his eyes.

"You never told me that you were taking me to a hot spring." I snapped back.

"So you thought I brought you half way up a mountain to ravish you?"

I sank deeper into the water and muttered, "Maybe."

"You're half right." He said swimming towards.

I swam backwards, "Rayne, you need to stay away-"

"Your blood will not harm me. It knows me, like your body does, it would never reject me." He reached out and took my hand and pressed a tiny kiss on to a small graze. Looking up he flashed a grin,

"See, I did not melt or keel over and die." he said.

I watched him carefully for a few fearful seconds. Rayne gently closed in on me wrapping his arms around me. I could feel his need and desire beating at me. The last few days had been agony for both of us. All it was my fault. I had been the one who got frightened and ran away. Tearfully I bowed my head,

"I'm sorry Rayne for all the trouble I have caused."

"We are together now and nothing can separate us- not even your venomous blood or an overgrown chicken." He said.

A small laugh managed to escape to the surface through all the saddness and fear. Pressing into me, Rayne caught my mouth with his. All the anxiety and saddness melted away into one exquisite moment. My whole body was aching for his.

"Why are your clothes still on?" He asked irritably.

"I don't know." I murmured absently.
