Eve woke slowly, her body still heavy with exhaustion from yesterday's brutal training session with Raphael. Every muscle ached in that deep, satisfying way that came from being pushed to absolute limits and surviving. Her succubus nature hummed contentedly beneath her skin, well-fed from the previous evening's session with her mates before they'd let her sleep.
She reached out instinctively, expecting to find warm male bodies surrounding her.....Damian's solid presence at her back, Damon's restless energy beside her, Silas's steady calm at the bed's edge. But her hands met only cool sheets and empty space.
Eve's eyes opened fully, taking in the master bedroom bathed in morning light. The bed was empty except for her. The bathroom door stood open, showing no one inside. Even the sitting area near the window was vacant.
