Kissed by a Dark Prince (Eternal Mates Romance Series Book 1)
Blurb:

Felicity Heaton

Olivia thinks it’s her lucky night when a dangerously handsome unconscious fae ends up on her

inspection table. He’s her chance to redeem herself with her employer, the demon-hunting

organisation, Archangel. But when the tall, dark and deadly immortal warrior awakes, she gets much

more than she bargained for…

Attacked by his enemy in the elf kingdom, the last thing Prince Loren expects when he comes around

is a beautiful angel watching over him and medical technology of the mortal realm. Hazy from his

injuries, all he can focus on is the pulse ticking in her throat and the sweet allure of her blood.

One single bite reveals she is his eternal mate, triggering a bond between them that will leave him

weakened until it is completed… or broken, and pulling Olivia into the crossfire of his ancient feud.

To protect his people and his mate from the machinations of a madman, Loren must risk everything

by working with Olivia at Archangel to find a way to break the bond blossoming between them.

But will Loren be strong enough to place duty before desire and give up the one thing he has waited

millennia for and craves above all others—his eternal mate? And will Olivia be able to resist the

incredible heat that burns between them and the temptation of her dark prince’s kiss?

Kissed by a Dark Prince is available from Amazon Kindle, Kobo Books, Barnes and Noble Nook,

Apple iBooks stores and other retailers. Also available in paperback. Find the links to your

Kissed by a Dark Prince – Excerpt

Olivia folded her arms across her chest. “Your enemy could have killed you rather than dump you

at my door. I still don’t get why you haven’t just killed him before. You’ve been at war for four

thousand years. There must have been opportunities.”

“I almost succeeded once.” He began pacing again, long strides eating up the stone floor with ease.

The man couldn’t keep still whenever he felt agitated and watching him pace only served to agitate

her. It showed off his body in far too good a light and gave her a terrible excuse to stare. “I came

close to killing Vail’s ki’ara... it would have given me a chance to capture him.”

Olivia didn’t miss that he had said capture him. Not kill him. Now she knew why they had been

fighting for so long. The prince couldn’t bring himself to kill this psychopath. Why not?

“What’s a ki’ara?” She figured it was safer than probing about his reasons for not killing his enemy.

He glanced across at her. “It is our term for our fated female... our eternal mate. You are my ki’ara.

The dark witch named Kordula is Vail’s ki’ara.”

So his enemy was another elf, and he had a fated female too, and the prince had tried to kill her.

“Do you get like a harem of them... or is it a one-time deal?” She hoped he didn’t say that each elf

only got one ki’ara, but the solemn edge to his purple eyes warned that he was going to shatter that

hope the moment he spoke.

“We have one fated female.” He looked away from her again, his head lowered now, his focus on his

knee-high black boots.

Whatever this ki’ara thing was, she had the impression that elves placed a lot of value on it and it

wasn’t something they gave up lightly. She couldn’t imagine having just one shot at true love. The

prince was five thousand years old and now he had found his ki’ara, in her, and he didn’t need to

say it aloud for her to know that he was thinking about giving her up. He didn’t act or look like a man

who was happy to have found his soul mate and was going to fight to keep her.

“What happened with Vail and his ki’ara?” Olivia said and he stopped pacing, his gaze on the floor

and his eyes widening.

He frowned and spat out what she could imagine was a vile curse.

“I am a fool. I have been looking at this all wrong.” He threw his head back and growled, his fangs

sharp and ears pointed again. “Vail will seek you out and torture you to drive me to the brink. He is

seeking revenge and desires me to suffer as he had. He will use you to hurt me.”

Olivia’s blood chilled to sub-zero temperatures and she stared at him, struggling to get past the part

about this madman torturing her.

She managed to reach the end of what he said and realised that what he had told her earlier hadn’t

been something romantic or noble at all. He had meant it literally. If someone hurt her, then he

would feel it. He would share her pain.

Olivia couldn’t comprehend that. It was too much. She couldn’t breathe as the weight of it pressed

down on her and the thought of being tortured closed her throat. Her head spun, the room viciously

turning with it.

“Calm yourself!” he bellowed, a dark commanding snarl.

No. She was damned well going to have herself a major panic attack and he could damned well deal

with it. She was sure that a panicking woman wasn’t on his list of things he enjoyed dealing with, but

he had just announced that someone was out to torture her and considering this man had beaten

the crap out of the prince, she felt her demise at his hands was somewhat inevitable.

“Female,” the prince gritted out and Olivia tried to focus on him.

He wobbled into focus and she frowned when she saw he was clutching his chest and was paler than

ever, on the verge of collapse too.

Oh my God. He didn’t only share her pain.

His knees gave out, sending him crashing to the floor, and he whipped out a vicious curse in English

this time, his handsome face contorting, revealing how much he despised what was happening to

him. Olivia rushed to him and crouched before him. He inhaled hard, his shoulders heaving with

each breath, struggling for air just as she had been a moment ago. She laid her hand on his shoulder.

He was shaking like a leaf.

Olivia ran her hand along his jaw and lifted his chin, and studied his eyes. She tilted his head towards

the light and away, monitoring the responsiveness of his pupils.

“What’s wrong?” She checked his pulse, pressing her fingers against his neck. It was fast, far quicker

than it had been when she’d had him hooked up to the machines in the lab.

She dropped her hand away.

It matched hers.

“Not used to the pace,” he ground out. He was talking about his heartbeat. Her heartbeat. She

swallowed, stunned by the reality before her.

The bond between them was so deep that it affected him physically. It linked them right down to

their hearts.

Incredible.

He sat back in front of her and drew in slow breaths and her eyes widened when her pulse began to

slow. He was the one making it happen.

Olivia tried to help him, seeking calm amongst the raging storm of her feelings, but it was hard. She

was in a strange environment, felt threatened and overwhelmed, and someone was out to torture

her. Just thinking about that had her pulse picking up again.

“Calm yourself.” He was back to commanding her again.

“I’m trying... it’s... I can’t... it’s too much.” Olivia’s panic spiked, her hand shaking against his face.

He looked deep into her eyes and then she was in his arms, held close to him, and they were

kneeling together on the floor.

Familiar scents swirled around her and she instantly felt more relaxed. “What did you do?”

He drew back from her and she found that he had taken her home and they were kneeling in the

middle of her small living room on the cream carpet, between the beige sofa and the TV.

The prince brushed cool fingers across her brow. “You feel better now.”

She nodded, her heart levelling out again, the soft feel of the carpet beneath her knees and the

familiar surroundings making her feel comforted and safe.

He sighed.

“I cannot remain here... and that means you cannot either... but I will not rush you,” he said in a low

voice, one laced with a solemn note.

She appreciated that because she could see how difficult this was for him. He was a man used to

issuing orders and having someone instantly obey. He was a man unused to having a weakness and

she knew that was what she was. She didn’t want this bond between them either. She wanted it

undone or broken or just gone somehow. She didn’t care how.

“Is there a way to undo it?” she whispered, afraid to hope that there was.

“It is possible it may fade if we do not complete it. I will have my men look into it and we will know

soon enough if it is possible to break the bond. If it is possible, you will be free to go.”

She didn’t like the sound of that. “And if it isn’t?”

“If it is not possible, then my only choice will be to complete the bond. Completing the bond will

restore my strength, because it will make you immortal, stronger.” He held her gaze, unflinching

as she glared at him, thinking about giving him another piece of her mind. “You must understand...

I must defeat my enemy and to do that, I need to regain my strength, whether that is through

breaking or completing our bond.”

In other words, she wasn’t getting a choice. He was just going to make that decision for her.
