Part 4 (1/2)
William sighed and looking forlorn. ”No...I'm not a good friend, Sebastian. I was sent here to kill Gitana, and I lured you away with the intent of doing it. It was me who called your demon out and led you to slaughter the others.”
Sebastian was too stunned to do anything. He fell back onto the floor and put his head down. His oldest and dearest friend had betrayed him. ”Pourquoi--why would you do such a thing?” ”The Council fears this union. They never thought you'd find her again. In fact, they have spent years feeding you false leads to keep you away from her. They even sent a replacement here to try to fool everyone into thinking that the prophecy had been filled, but Gitana saw through him. And when they divorced the Council put extra men in the area to watch her.”
”Je ne comprends pas.” It made no sense. To go against the Council's wishes meant death. ”Why are you telling me this? Why didn't you...?” Sebastian couldn't bring himself to ask William why he hadn't carried out his orders. If he had completed his mission, Gitana would be dead right now.
William touched his shoulder. ”You are the closest friend I've ever had, and when I watched Gitana tending to her flowers, I couldn't do it. I couldn't take her away from you. I can see why you love her. She's beautiful, s.e.xy, smart and most of all powerful.”
Sebastian's gaze went to Gitana and couldn't believe his eyes. She was sitting on the floor naked, tracing the edges of her b.r.e.a.s.t.s with one hand, while pleasuring herself with the other. He hardened instantly and he wanted to take her then and there, but they had company. Any other time, he would have stroked his c.o.c.k and watched her finger herself, not now, not with an audience.
”Gitana!”
William gasped. ”It's not her. Somehow, the two of you morphed powers. I think she has vampire tendencies now and you....”
Sebastian touched his chest. ”My coeur--heart beats again.”
William's mouth fell open. ”Then it's true, you are her mullo! Together the two of you will create a life that will forever change the destiny of mankind.”
Gitana cried out and clawed at her face. Red welts appeared and Sebastian raced to her side. Grabbing both her wrists, he looked up at William. ”I am not sure one man can satisfy her need for s.e.x. I may need you to...you may have to stay and...” He couldn't ask another man to touch his Gitana. The thought of someone else's hands on her body infuriated him.
William touched his shoulder gently. ”See what you can do, never underestimate the power of love, Sebastian. If you need me, I'll be here. I've given my word that I will protect the two of you and I'll be staying. Call me and I will come.”
Sebastian didn't even wait for William to leave the room. He planted his lips firmly on Gitana's and pushed his tongue into her mouth. She bit at his lip and made his c.o.c.k throb with antic.i.p.ation. His fingers moved down her tight belly and found their way into her c.u.m-soaked recesses.
”f.u.c.k me, Sebastian.”
He wasn't so sure that he liked hearing his sweet Gitana talk this way, but he had no problem obliging. He slid down her body. He wanted to taste her before he made love to her. She grabbed his wet hair and yanked his head up. Her eyes swam with flecks of blue and black. They were his eyes, and these were his vampire needs.
She pushed him backwards and he landed flat on the floor. Having his own power turned on him caught him off guard, and he felt Gitana's hands as they slid into his jeans. She peeled them from his body and crawled up his legs. A s.h.i.+ver ran through him as she nuzzled her face in the dark patch of hair at the base of his c.o.c.k. She took one of his b.a.l.l.s into her mouth and rolled it around gently. He tried to coax her up. She needed pleasure right now, definitely more than he did, but she wouldn't budge. She licked the length of him and took the head of his c.o.c.k into her mouth. Her hot mouth swallowed him down, and he could feel himself touching the back of her throat. She varied her speed and movements, ma.s.saging his b.a.l.l.s with her hand as she went. He thought that he'd lose it and release his seed into her throat if she didn't stop soon. As tempting as letting her suck him off was, he needed to see to her needs.
”Gitana,” was all he managed to get out.
She increased her pace, her head bobbing as she took him deep in her throat. His body prepared for release, his b.a.l.l.s drew up and his muscles tightened. ”Gitana, if you do not let me give you pleasure then I will need to call William in to give it to you. Is that what you want? Would you rather have another man f.u.c.k you, or do you want me?”She pulled away from his wet shaft and looked up at him with swirling eyes. She started to shake her head yes, but stopped.
”Bastian?”
He put his arms out to her and she moved her body up and over his. ”I want you so badly, what's happening to me?” She asked, straddling his waist, and sliding her body onto his. She took him into her wet opening, sheathing him, making it almost impossible not to come.
She let out a tiny gasp and continued moving her body down on him, effectively taking his entire shaft into her. He gathered her long black hair back and held it out of her face so he could watch her make love to him. It was beautiful, she was beautiful, and she belonged only to him.
”You are mine, Gitana, mine. Do you understand?”
For a moment, she just stared down at him as she rode him. He feared that she'd refuse his claim on her, and he couldn't let that happen. Pulling on her hair, he tipped her head back gently, driving his hips up as he went, and making her cry out.
”You,” he thrust upwards again, driving his c.o.c.k into her deeper, ”are mine! You are mine, Gitana.”
”Yours,” she whispered.
He watched as her b.r.e.a.s.t.s jiggled in his face. He captured a nipple in his mouth, careful not to knick it with his fangs, and sucked gently. She rode him with the need of a hundred women, and that was putting it mildly. He knew better than anyone did just how powerful the hunger could be. Her channel tightened on him, contracting and loosening with such intensity, he had no choice but to let his come fill her womb.
Gitana screamed out and collapsed on his chest. Her body twitched slightly as she stroked his skin. ”Will the hunger ever go away?”
He brushed her long hair back and caressed her soft cheek. Lying to her would be the best option. It wouldn't do her any good to know that the hunger would only grow if she didn't tend to it regularly. As long as he had breath in his body, and if she still wanted him, he would stand by her side and be there to feed the demon he'd pa.s.sed on to her. If blamed him for what she'd become then he would see to it that William watched over her. No man would ever harm her.
Chapter 11.
”How are you doing, old friend?”
Sebastian looked up to see William standing over him. He glanced down at the bed to be sure that Gitana still slept. She looked so peaceful, so clam. He couldn't bear the fact that he'd pa.s.sed on part of his demon to her. He touched his chest and closed his eyes when he felt the rhythmic thumping of his once dead heart.
”She gave me so much, yet I have pa.s.sed on nothing of use to her,” Sebastian said, his voice full of sorrow.
”Come.” William touched his shoulder lightly. ”Let's talk in the other room. I do not want to wake her up either. I don't think I could say no if she begged me to touch her again. She's a temptress all unto herself. Your power only intensified that.” If it had been any man, other than William, saying these things, Sebastian would have killed him on the spot. He knew William, and he knew that he was a true friend. He would do only what he had to and never with the intent to do harm. He'd proven his loyalty when he'd refused to kill Gitana for the Council. William could never go back to his position there. They would burn him alive now that he'd disobeyed them.
Sebastian followed William out into the kitchen. William motioned toward a bowl of fruit. ”You should eat.”
”Merci, but I prefer to eat only after I have taken blood.”
William turned and gave him an odd look. ”Many things have changed for the both of you. I believe that you may be able to subst.i.tute many of your blood feedings with food now, and I believe that your sensitivity to light will decrease with time as well.”
”The mid-day sunlight no longer burns as it once did or leaves me as drained,” he said softly.
The possibility of becoming more human had never crossed his mind. He would gladly give it all up to see Gitana free of his vampiric ways. Picking up an apple, he took a bite. Normally, he would have to wash it down with water. Today it slid down his throat easily. His eyes widened as he looked at his longtime friend.
”They will not stop until they destroy us.”
”No, they'll stop if they destroy her. They need you alive, Sebastian. You are a force to be reckoned with and they need you on their side in the fight against evil,” William said, taking a seat at the table.
”I will kill every last one of them if they dare lay a hand on Gitana. She is my mate and will be my wife, by law as soon as I can make it official.” Sebastian tossed the fruit aside. Thinking of losing Gitana made him lose his appet.i.te.
”I know that you will. They underestimate you, Sebastian. I fear that they have also underestimated Gitana's powers as well.
They've no idea that she's a master of the craft, and if they find out, they will send legions to see her dead.”
”Where should I take her? Where will she be safe?”
William laughed methodically. ”The only place safe from the council's reach is h.e.l.l itself, and I don't think you want to take her there, especially not now.”
”Meaning?”
