Urban Vampire Chapter 83
"That's very kind of you." I wasn't shitting him. I would never invite anyone to join in on one of our meetings with its thinly veiled sense of superiority. "But as I said, I'm not quite sure how much free time I'll have.""Perhaps on a future trip to Spain. Now, to the reason for my visit." He seemed to be studying me. "Many visitors that are Neratomay come to this little town for one purpose and one purpose only. Epic Cu."Julie, who had been standing quietly a few feet from me tensed a bit. I knew it on a telepathic level but doubted if Marcelle or Paolo would have been able to tell.I tilted my head at him. "Oh. Do tell? Why would Neratomay want to visit Epic Cu? I thought it was a torture chamber?"Marcelle wasn't fooled, but he was polite enough to play along. "Epic Cu is a lot of different things including a place to take a sabbatical. You are correct. Epic Cu is a place to be tortured as well. But the latter seldom happens. Generally it's used for initiations.""Initiation

I blew out a long breath. Just as I had lowered my shields to Alexis, I closed off my link to Tony. Now was not the time to think about him. And I didn't want him knowing what I was doing. Let him wonder. As cold as that sounded, I didn't want to take a chance of him interfering.Julie, who had been to Spain many times, was driving. She had a nose for our location and used her Vampire senses to find it. We didn't worry about the police pulling us over thinking that a kid was driving. Any cop stupid enough to pull us over would get a hypnotic suggestion to make him think he was something ridiculous like a mime or an orangutan.The paved road turned to rocks then dirt. Before long there were only grass and weeds under our wheels. When we started coming up on trees, Julie pulled over. She stowed the keys in the glove compartment.When I got out of the car, I stretched and looked around. I didn't get a sense of anything. I don't know what Julie was picking up on, but my senses were dead

The stone felt strange under my shoes after running so far in the woods. I considered Marcelle's warning not to come here. I considered the warding spell that kept humans from getting close. No, we weren't wanted here, and because no one had leaped out at us with swords drawn didn't make it any different.Julie walked one step ahead. When she reached the landing that led to the door, she froze. "Kim, don't you feel that?"I shook my head. "No. I don't feel anything."Julie braced herself. "I can't go any closer to the door." I nodded. "Stay here then. I'll be careful." It was a heavy wooden door at least fifteen feet tall! Heavy iron hinges that probably weighed more than me were more utilitarian than ornate. I strolled carefully to the door, reached up, and grasped a large knocker.Zing! A shock of lightning threw me back three feet and I landed on my ass. Julie flashed beside me while I held my hand and stared at the door. "What happened?" Julie asked."Silver," I said.
Urban Vampire Chapter 86
While hidden away in our little beach house, I learned that Alexis the dangerous Elder wasn't much different than Alexis the human.He had lived during the Byzantine Empire. Not that I'm much of a historian but curiosity had caused me to read up on that period of time. It was when the Roman Empire had split into two factions; the western half was called Byzantium or Constantinople and the eastern half Alexis called the Barbarian Kingdom. Alexis had worked for the Catholic Church, collecting alms and learning secrets … He used his power to benefit his every craving and desire until the day he was taken out by a powerful female Vampire. Athena.I would not have wanted to know that human Alexis because he was far from the loving and caring person that I had gleamed from our time in his mysterious little beach world created by his own thoughts.To see him in human form was to see an extremely handsome man with dark sun-browned skin and thick curly brown hair. His medium height was acc

Alexis watched me silently. I knew he was trying to get inside my head to view my memories. Fuck it. Two could play that game. I went into his.Looking into someone's memories was not like watching a television screen of someone's actions. Being inside someone's head is like sharing that person's body. You become them.I traced his memories backwards. Through his eyes I saw him open the great door to see me folded on the front stoop. His still heart jumped in fear because the sun was frying me. Alexis gripped me, lifted me into his arms, and carried me down into the coolness …Alexis roamed these rooms night after night. His memories were mostly of us, of me. For months I had thought he'd forgotten me, and it turns out that his thoughts were always of me. I felt so bad that I'd turned so easily to Tony. I shouldn't have doubted Alexis.I pushed further and saw the familiar Council chambers. It was the ethereal place where Alexis had taken me before my punishment; his Council. This

We kissed with dropped teeth, bleeding each other and ignoring the stings. I wrapped my arms and then my legs around him. He supported me with a gasp and then lowered us to the floor."Oh, Alexis, I missed you. I missed you so much!"He pulled back to look at me. "My love, my beautiful, beautiful love." He kissed me and stroked my tongue with his until I thought I'd faint. Alexis, who had not touched another human for four hundred years until me, was now running his fingers up my arms. His touch caused me to shiver uncontrollably. He was allowing himself to warm up, and I could feel the heat radiating off his fingertips. He made his heart beat, and I could feel his breath hot against my lips. I felt his tongue again, this time gentler as it teased my lips and healed the little scrapes. I reached up and ran my fingers through his silky curls."I missed you," he whispered. "I love you."My eyes stung."It's not your fault," he whispered. "I see that you feel guilty because you
Urban Vampire Chapter 89
I lowered myself carefully onto his otherworldly penis. Alexis threw his head back and groaned loudly as I plunged lower onto him. At the beach house this had been Alexis' favorite position, we hadn't been Vampires then. Here it was my Vampire flesh melding with his. It seemed impossible that our skins had never touched this way before. Though as familiar as the back of my hand, this was truly our first time making love.I stopped before he was completely inside of me and leaned forward to plant my hands on each side of his head. He brought his hands up to stroke my sides and squeeze my breasts while I arched my pelvis forward forcing him to sink deeply into me. Arching my back, I allowed him to slip almost completely out of me then rocked my pelvis forward against him until he was completely inside of me again. His hands on my breasts tightened until I gasped half in pain and half in pleasure. I rolled my pelvis against him and then sat up enough so I could reach behind me to stro

I stared at Alexis in shock. His alabaster skin was now pink like a newborn's. The skin on his hands was mottled and gnarled in a way my own hands had been. His eyelids were so scarred I could only see his beautiful eyes through slits. He stood as I watched him in horror. There were more scars on him than had been on me.He looked at his hands and smiled. "This, I can feel. Thank you, my love, for giving me so much to feel.""But you have many more scars than I had.""No, my love. You had many scars on the inside. I will heal these more quickly than you ever could." He looked around. "The day is coming to an end, and she will awaken soon. You must go."We got dressed."I'm going to come back when the sun rises," I said."No. She will surely know if you do. I want you on the other side of the ocean before the next sunrise. I will keep myself blocked from her until then, but after that she will know. I will try to be selective with my memories, but it will be difficult. Don't mak
