My eyes flew open in that final instant just before the sun lost its shadow in the western sky. What was that? I stayed still, straining to hear whatever it was that had interrupted my rest. My eyes scanned the room as my body remained still. I sensed no imminent danger to myself, but something was a little bit off in the atmosphere. There was something there that hadn't been the day before when I went to bed. Whatever it was had been strong enough to intrude on my senses which is not the easiest thing to do. Especially here in the earthly realm where mortals lacked the kind of power it takes to effect a high immortal like myself. I sent my senses out around my immediate surroundings but felt and saw nothing out of the ordinary. The humans who serve me were already long gone by now and my relatives wouldn't be here for a few days more at least. There wasn't so much as a leaf out of place on the property, so I'm still no closer to figuring out what it was
Why is fate fucking with me? I inhaled deeply of her scent and knew that this was a place where she spent a lot of time. Her aroma was very strong here. My last hope after accepting that there was going to be a battle ahead in the coming days was that she was anything but nymph. My senses only allowed me to capture the fae in her, but there was something else, some hint of something else mixed in with the musky bouquet. My heart thundered in my chest at the implications. I left my bike lying on its side in the damp leaves of the dank forest and moved towards the edge letting my senses guide me before moving deeper into the thick foliage of the forest. I sensed more bodies but they were of no interest to me now. The closer I got to her the stronger the pull became until my incisors were damn near cutting into my lip and my cock was about to bust through the leather of my pants. I came to a stop once I was well hidden from view of anyone and anything except the a
I made myself transparent in the split second before she picked her head up as if sensing me there but stood in the same spot watching her. The closer she came the greater the hunger grew and I could feel my need stir as the blood sang in my veins. I clenched my fists and inhaled deep taking her essence into me until it danced along my blood. This is so fucked, my need was way too strong and all the horror stories of the past came rushing to the forefront of my mind. Just when I thought I would explode I felt a calming presence surround me. "Mom...dad what the fuck!""Watch your mouth boy your mother can hear you." Yeah, like I had time to worry about that shit right now. And why the fuck is he so calm? Oh, he's doing that to keep me from popping my leash no doubt. I gritted my teeth and tried to block out her scent and tried to concentrate on anything else but her and what she was already doing to me. A good screaming match with my parents is just the thing I
He'd waited too long to find her and by the time he did the madness was upon him and he ended up killing her by mistake when she resisted him. We've never been a good mix her kind and mine for all the reasons I've already mentioned. Why would they do this? Hadn't they learned the last time? It had caused a rift between our people that still lasted to this day. Not that there had been any love lost between the two factions before. We've always been at odds with each other. It's the reason my ancestor's intended had resisted him, out of fear. Not because she did not want him, which no one will ever know, but because among the fae, vampyre are reviled and looked down upon as something dark and evil. While they themselves are of the light. It is true that my people didn't have the most enviable of beginnings. No one really knows how we came to be in fact. But the prospects are not good. We know that we were made from another race of people that had existed before
That brings me back to her, to us. I have no intentions of spending the rest of my existence locked away in a room in some crumbling down castle somewhere, living out my days staring at four walls because I'd lost my damn mind. She will accept me and that's all there is to it. I watched her now as she looked around the forest as if seeking me out. I wanted to come out of hiding and yell at her for being out in the open bare ass as she was. What if I had been someone else? Granted the place was surrounded on three sides by high walls and a ten foot gate, except for the back, which was acres upon acres of private forest that no doubt belonged to her family. How had I not known that she was here, that her kind was this close to my city? Granted I've only been here a short while, having moved here from my homeland in their earthly realm for a change of pace. Or was it because of her? Had it been she who drew me here? Could be. I remember thinking how odd my
That was weird. I could've sworn there was someone, or something in the woods just then. I looked around once more sensing that presence strongly, but seeing nothing, carried on to the water. My dreams had chased me out of bed and this was the only way I knew to clear my mind. I played in the water feeling the unease dissipate as I splashed and dove to the bottom before coming up for air. It was then that I noticed the strange actions of the fish, they weren't following me up to the surface like they usually do. Wait! I looked around the woods trying to see into the trees as I recalled the absence of my four legged friends when I made my way here. That's odd! I can always expect an escort to the water whenever I make this trek. It's the only time they're not fighting with each other and something I look forward to. But today they were eerily silent. That feeling of being watched grew stronger and I climbed from the water much sooner than I'd planned. As
The reason it was so hard to shake is because in all the time we've owned the land nothing like this has ever happened. The dark ones aren't known to venture this far north and especially not to the sleepy little town where there isn't much to do to keep their need for constant excitement satisfied. The constant back and forth of my thoughts was making me out of sorts and lethargic all evening until I was making myself and everyone else crazy. "It's Friday night, why don't we go into town for a bite to eat?" Annalise came into my room already dressed which means I'm not going to be able to talk my way out of this one. "Come to think of it a burger from Smileys sounds really nice right about now." I showed real signs of life for the first time all day as I jumped up from the bed to get dressed in jeans and a light summer sweater. Spring was being its usual fractious self, one day cool and the other warm. By the time we got into the car to make the drive into town
Her fae ass can run the streets all day while I have to stay away from the human population, something I'm going to put an end to first thing. Contrary to popular belief the sun won't burn us to a crisp, but just as with humans of a lighter shade of pale, our lack of melanin makes the shit uncomfortable as fuck. When we get overheated and our skin starts feeling like shit, our tempers are known to flare. If that shit gets out of hand we can morph into our true form, in my case a dragon and that's all I need for the asshole human brigade to go up in arms and start their pitchfork fuckery. Since we'd been killing them out in droves back in the day, the meddling fucks that are our elders had decided that it was best if we avoided the sun altogether, which suits me just fine since I can rest all day and play all night, which for a freak like me is just about damn near perfect. But I'll be fucked if my wife is going to keep a different schedule than mine. "Where are
