His eyelids were heavy and he closed them, surrendering to the temptation of unconsciousness. Sleep was what he needed now.
But a moment later Elena’s arms were around him and she was supporting his shoulders.
‘Ragnar!’ She shook him lightly, demanding that he open his eyes.
His vision flickered, but he managed to look at her.
‘Don’t leave me,’ she demanded. Her eyes welled up with tears and she commanded again, ‘You can’t leave me here alone.’
‘Just … resting,’ he told her. Sleep would make it easier to bear the pain. The darkness was tempting him to let go, to fall into nothingness.
‘Your lips are blue,’ she told him. ‘If you go to sleep now you might never awaken.’
He didn’t answer her, for his body had been transformed into lead and the last bits of consciousness were sliding away. Though a part of him understood what she meant, he lacked the strength to fight it.
‘Don’t you dare die on me!’ She wept, shaking him again. ‘I can’t survive out here alone. Do you hear me?’ she demanded. ‘If you die, I’ll die as well.’
He tried to form the word no, to tell her he wasn’t going to die at all. But before his lips could move her mouth came down on his in a searing kiss.

AUTHOR NOTE
TO TEMPT A VIKING is the second book in my Forbidden Vikings series (Book One was TO SIN WITH A VIKING). This duet is centred around the idea that sometimes arranged marriages don’t work … and what will happen when a husband and a wife meet their true soul mates?
Elena Karlsdotter has always dreamed of a loving husband and children, but after being barren for years she blames herself for the failure of her marriage. Her husband no longer desires her, and she’s afraid to let him go, but when she’s stranded with her husband’s best friend, Ragnar Olafsson, she comes to realise that the man of her dreams has been there all along. Fierce and strong, Ragnar holds dark secrets of his own, and Elena helps him to heal old wounds.
I hope you’ll enjoy these Irish Viking stories. Incidentally, the epilogue of this book is based upon a true story about friends of mine who struggled for years to have children.
My other Viking stories include THE VIKING’S FORBIDDEN LOVE-SLAVE, PLEASURED BY THE VIKING and THE HOLLY AND THE VIKING in Warriors in Winter.
