It burns between them, this new connection, this awareness, burns in a way that Kyra can’t yet understand. She doesn’t like it, she decides: doesn’t like the confusion that he seems so smugly beyond, doesn’t like the way their heartbeats align in a way no one but Riddick has noticed, and certainly doesn’t like the flush that creeps across her skin with a single look from across the throne room. It’s maddening, this fire he sets teasing at her skin; it’s almost enough to make a woman strip just to escape the heat.
