Chapter 127
The next day, true to my word, I took Jase to the Disneyland theme park, leaving Leila to rest in the hotel, but not before I made her promise to keep the door locked and her cell phone close to her at all times. Leila thought that I was being completely ridiculous, but agreed, nevertheless.
In the park, I rented a stroller. I laughed at the private joke: a vampire renting a stroller for his dhampir son in Disneyland. You just can’t write these things. As I pushed him through the park, he had a wonderful time, pointing to all of the sights.
“Dumbo!” he said as we passed the ride.
I looked at him, confused. I hadn’t said the name, but he probably heard it from the passersby. “You want to ride?” I asked, already unstrapping him from the rented stroller.
He nodded. “Yes, ride Dumbo!” he said happily.
I laughed. “Well, then, let’s go!” I said, going to the end of the line. If I wanted to

We spent the next few days in this way. I took Jase to the theme park every day while Leila stayed at the hotel to rest. By the time we were about to leave, she was looking much better, and Jase was an extremely happy little boy. He wanted nothing to do with baby food, having skipped right over it and straight to adult food. He was the equivalent of a two-year-old child now, and was running everywhere. It was a good thing that I was a vampire. I took care of Jase most of the time in an effort to give Leila time to rest … and it was working.Two days later, she snuggled into my side in the limo, as we pulled away from the Disney property, headed toward Charles De Gaulle Airport, where John and Margarite were waiting for us with the Learjet.“My goodness, Jase is getting so big!” Margarite exclaimed, having not seen him in a few days. “May I?” she asked. When I nodded, a broad smile spread across her face as she reached out to take Jase.

Leila nodded as a yawn escaped her lips. I squeezed her hand reassuringly, as we exited the plane to our waiting limo. Within minutes, we pulled up in front of The Pierre. “Is this all right?” I asked, raising an eyebrow.Leila shook her head in disbelief. “Perfect. I loved it the last time we stayed here.”A broad smile spread across my lips. “I was hoping you’d say that.” Personally, I loved staying here, but I wanted to be sure that Leila agreed.Henric, my limo driver in New York, opened my door and I slid out of the car with Jase still asleep on my shoulder. I hired him after I lost Clarence. Outside, I reached out my hand for Leila. She slid out of the car, but held a hand to her back and stretched a bit.“Are you well?” I asked, falling into my old vernacular.She nodded. “Yes, I just needed a minute.”I shook my head as I took her hand. “I’ve been pushing y

Knowing that Raven would arrive soon, normally I would have waited for her in the hotel lobby. But my Learjet had just exploded and I needed to be with me family to make sure that they were safe. I hit the elevator button, and a moment later, the doors opened. It seemed like an eternity when the doors opened on the top floor. I always booked the same room at The Pierre every time I came into town. I quickly inserted the key card, and a moment later, I flung the door open to our suite.In the living room, Leila was sitting in a club chair, but Jase was nowhere to be found. The service attendant was standing inside the room, waiting.Leila rose from her seat. “Lance, what’s happening?”“Where’s Jase?”“In his crib, sleeping,” Leila said, panicked. “Lance, tell me what is happening … now!”I held up one finger, asking her with my eyes to give me just a minute. Then, I turned to the ser

Soon, there was a knock on the door, and I knew it was Raven. I walked into the living room, faster than human speed, and was at the front door before Leila could rise from her seat. When I opened it, Raven was standing on the other side, along with two bodyguards.“Come in, please,” I said, stepping aside.She held a hand up to her bodyguards, indicating for them to stay in the hallway. Then, she pushed her straight, long, shiny-black hair over her shoulder as she slinked in the door, so smooth that she almost appeared to float. She placed a hand with her trademark long, red fingernails on my chest, and gave me air kisses on both cheeks, careful not to smudge her matching red lipstick. Her dark eye makeup accented her coal black eyes, adding an aura of mystery.“Darling, it has been too long,” she said, giving my hand a gentle squeeze.“Yes, indeed,” I said, and then stepped back and motioned toward the room. “Pl

Now, it was my turn to look on in shock. “What? Why?”Raven shook her head. “I’m not sure, but time will tell.” Then, she looked directly into my eyes and took my hand. “If you plan to go through with becoming human, you cannot ever be discovered. I would think twice before giving up your vampire.”I nodded slowly, shocked by Raven’s revelations. “Thank you so much for this. You have been most helpful.” I squeezed her hand, and then released it. “Why the bodyguards? You never had them before.”Raven took a deep breath and leaned back on her seat. “It is a most dangerous time for supernatural creatures such as us.” Then, she looked into my eyes. “One cannot be too careful.” She leaned forward as she spoke. “Make sure that you have bodyguards for you and your family at all times. It is imperative, to protect your children.”I nodded. “Thank you.

Immediately, I flipped on my phone and called for two bodyguards to stand outside our door for the night. A few minutes later, Blake and Channing, two vampires, walked into the lobby, wearing black Armani suits, white shirts with ties, and dark sunglasses. Since Leila had developed the sunlight serum, it was no longer necessary to hire werewolves as guards, although I would have no aversion to it. Since the Werewolf-Vampire War, relations between the species had returned to normal. With a nod of my head, they followed me into the elevator, standing before me, folding their arms, as the doors closed. A moment later, the doors opened and they stepped aside for me to pass and followed me to our hotel room.Before I opened the door, I turned to them and said, “Stay here for the night and do not leave.”They both nodded and stood on either side of the door, folding their arms without another word.I walked inside, and Leila was sitting on a

We woke in the middle of the night and dressed, in case Jase woke up before us. He was getting older, and I vowed to make sure to move him into his own room next to ours when we got back home.The sun shone brightly through the window the next morning, caressing my cheek. It felt great to be in the sunlight, after not being able to enjoy it for so long. For so many years, I had spent my life living in darkness, until Leila literally brought sunshine into my life. Not only literally by developing the Sunlight Serum, a cure for our aversion to sunlight, but she had brought sunshine into my life figuratively, as well, bringing light back into my life with her sweetness, her goodness. I had never met anyone like her before.I looked across the bed where Leila was still sleeping. I rose from the bed, threw three blood bags into the microwave, and made coffee. When the microwave stopped, I took two of the blood bags and opened the front door. Outside our room, both Blake and

“Fuck, Leila! What you do to me is amazing.” I poured shampoo into the palm of my hand and ran it along her breasts. “You’re so damned beautiful,” I whispered into her ear as I turned her into the stream of water and washed her off. Then, I lathered up my hands again and shampooed her hair, bringing it to a strong lather, and then she leaned her head back into the stream of water as I laced my fingers in her long tresses, helping her rinse. I poured more shampoo into the palm of my hand and ran it over the small, round pooch then kissed it, and then concentrated on the area between her legs as her breath quickened. She started to reach for the shampoo, but I shook my head. “Let me take care of you,” I said, then poured more shampoo into my hand and ran my hands down her legs to her beautiful feet. “You have the most perfect body.”She laughed. “You’re spoiling me.”I smiled up at her. “I&rsqu
