Chapter 222 Calm Between The Storms
Well, to say that I have not been beating up pretty well would be a lie, but that is not my immediate concern as I head out the door to find the first phone that I can.
So as I step into this godawful mansion that this man called home, I hear a scuffle in what appears to be the kitchen. Arming myself again, I sneak my head around the corner, and much to my relief, it is a goddamn cat that is going about eating what seems to be what is leftover from one of Vladamir’s victims.
Pushing aside the fact that a goddamn Vampire shall keep such a pet, I move towards where I can remember his study is. And as I finally find it, I am much relieved to find a phone on his desk.
In little less than a few seconds, I am dialing the number, and well, “This better be good” is the greeting that I find on the other side.
So only with a soft chuckle, “Dean, now that is not the way to talk to a friend.”
“My god, where are you.” I hear him call Cassidy closer, then he continues, “We have been bashing every Vampire for the location.”
“Oh, believe me, they are all idiots.”
“Does that include yourself for getting caught?”
“Well, I do believe I have uncaught myself. Now can you be so friendly and come fetch a man, or are you in your own battle at present?”
I hear as he mumbles a bunch of curse words underneath his breath, “I am afraid your Angel friend is giving us quite the runaround. But just give me your location, and we will be there in a second.”
With that, I give the man the address and fall back into the black leather chair, pulling the bottle of whiskey that is standing in the corner closer and taking one rather big gulp from it. And as I glance over into a silver frame that Vladamir has on his desk, I can see the state that my face is in.
“Cassidy is going to kill me when she sees it.”
But not having the care to rise and find a bathroom, I remain right where I am seated in anticipation for the arrival of my beloved, who must be sick with worry. Yes, I did get myself caught, but this stand-off would have happened, and I am glad that I found myself on the right side of the dagger. Though I should have asked some questions before I killed the man that seemed to have the answers.This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
The question begs…
Did Lenora, in fact, watch me and come across the discovery of the child?
If she has, then the child is in danger.
But I was extremely careful when I moved them.
I need to find Lilith.
Breyden is now presenting a problem…
But what else is presenting itself is a group of Misfits barging through a front door armed with a bunch of rather questionable weapons. I do seem to have forgotten that Vladamir had a group of bloodlust Vampires roaming the City.
It seems that I have just earned myself another problem.
Which of these are the biggest at the present moment?
Well, I have Cassidy descending on me with a worry I have never seen on her face. Wait until she sees this face, which has started healing at a rapid pace. But besides that, “Lucas, my god, look what they did to you.”
“Oh, my beloved, Vladamir looks even worse.”
She comes crashing into my arms at an alarming pace, knocking me back into the chair. As I pull her onto my lap, I look deep into her beautiful blue eyes, “I missed you, beloved.” Softly I lay my lips against hers in a passionate kiss.
Then from behind her, I hear Dean clear his throat, “You are not even together for a minute, and you are at it.” He only but winks at me as he comes closer, “Looks like they fucked you up pretty good old man. Did not think that we were going to find you alive.”
“You have little faith in me, my dear friend.” For a brief moment, I pause as Cassidy disappears off to go find a cloth to wipe the blood from my face, then I continue, “So what is this situation with Breyden?”
“The man is moving Lilith around faster than we can catch up to him. Cass has been at it the whole night to get a location. The boys are exhausted, so I am going to suggest that we take a few hours to get ourselves rested.”
“Not ideal, but if you suggest, then this body can also appreciate the time to heal. However, we have a completely new problem.”
I watch as Dean’s eyes grow wider at just the word.
With that, he grabs the bottle of whiskey and takes a big gulp himself, “Well, lay it on me. What have you done now again?”
“I am sorry to disappoint you. But this one is the doing of Vladamir.”
“Yes, I saw some bloodlust Vampires, but I was hoping that it was only a coincidence.”
“No, my dear friend, they are indeed real, and there seems to be a great number of them roaming the City. So I suggest we find Lilith rather soon and get rid of our red-eyed friends.” Then I take a glance over to the door to see if Cassidy is anywhere to be seen. Once I am certain, I turn back to Dean, “I might have a crazy old lover roaming the City as well.”
Dean bursts out in a fit of nervous laughter and only proceeds to close the door behind him, “Please do not tell me.”
“I am sorry to say; she was part of the little welcoming party that had done this to my face. She had escaped just before things came to a spectacular end.”
“So you think, or am I dumb to assume that she will not come back for you again?”
“I believe she might know about the child.”
“My god. Okay. Let us head out to a motel and get some rest.”
I only but shake my head at him, “Well, what is wrong with here?”
“You are not suggesting I sleep in a dead Vampire’s house with his little bloodlust pets running around.”
“Oh, you are not going to sleep, and if they come to us, then that is even better. Now, if you excuse me, I need to get to my beloved.”
“I will make sure to put plugs in.”
“Best you do, my friend.”
With that, I leave the study and go find Cassidy that is looking for a rag in the kitchen, but she has become fascinated by the cat.
So I only reach for her hand and pull her back from the floor where she is sitting and playing with the godawful thing, “My beloved, you will not play with that thing if you saw what it ate earlier on.” And as I say this, I point to the very bloody bowl.
I can hardly contain my laughter as I watch her cringe, “My god, what is wrong with you old Vampires.”
“We have acquired the taste for certain things,” with only but a wink, I pull her closer, “And I have a tasted that I would love to acquire at the present moment.”
“Lucas, this is a dead man’s house.”
“My beloved, it is a house, and it is unoccupied at the moment.”
Before she can even further protest, I have led her by the hand and we are ascended the stairs to one of the guest rooms far off on the east side of the mansion. Once we are inside a rather dull decorated room with an enormous bed, I make sure to close the door firmly behind and to…
It does not seem to lock…
Well…
My rising passion is not going to ponder on a solution or even try to find another room with a door that can lock.
So as I spin around, I shred my body from my clothing and make my way over to the hot and steamy shower where my beloved is waiting for me.
And waiting, she is in nothing but her tiny red lace panties. I cannot but help growl from the depth of my chest as I step closer to her, “You look good enough to eat, my beloved.”
“Well, I am hoping that is what you are going to do. That is if you are not too sore.”
“My beloved, there are things that a man is simply always able to do.”
Her hands start working their way around my body, feeling each crevasse, each line along my sculpted chest and rippled abs. She presses her soft lips against my hot skin. Then she pulls me into the shower. I will let her be in control only for a few more minutes; after that, she will be mine to take.
She sways her hips seductively as she presses herself into me, then I spin her around and presses her into the glass, rubbing her tight ass into me. Then I spin her back around again.
I step forward, pressing her body against the glass, pinning her hands over her head. The steam has built up, and the water is beating down on their bodies. She splays her hand against my chest and tries to whisper; I only but places a finger against her sweet cherry red lips.
I hover my lips over the tip of her ear; the warmth of my breath makes her shiver. Then I take my hand to her trembling cheek. I cannot keep the fight against the thoughts that are running through my mind, which is flooding my senses.
I slowly start moving my lips, breath by breath closer to hers.
The moment they touch, the world vanishes. My lips are firm against hers, but the kiss remains soft, gentle, and slow. I hold it for a few seconds before our lips begin to move in perfect sync.
My eyes fall closed; all I want is to feel is her. The warmth of her touch, the sweet taste of her lips, the growing agony that she brings to my body.
My only desire is to touch her, to move my hands over the smooth curves of her body, and feel her perfect softness. The passion takes over my entire body. I tangle her hair in my hand and lightly pull her closer to me.
My hungry mouth is parting her trembling lips; she inflicts the sensations that I love only feeling with her. As I delve inside, the kiss gets deeper and deeper. Her velvety lips are imprinting themselves like a footprint in the snow.
Then I slowly pull away and look into those eyes.
I take her by the hand and lead her out of the shower.
The moment we step inside the room, my words come out as not but a terrified mumble, “My beloved, don’t move.”
