2024-12-12 19:15:14My hands fluttered along Marley’s hot skin, my mouth kissing along her neck, knowing as she tipped her head back, what she wanted. It’d been something she had wanted from only a few days into our arrangement.
My fangs in her flesh.
I bit down gently, as I covered her small frame with my larger one and thrust into her.
She moaned, arms wrapping around my neck, as I slowly made love to her, drawing out her pleasure, for purely selfish reasons. Her blood was sweeter in the throes of passion, her moans, music to my ears as she writhed beneath me.
She dragged me closer, her moans becoming louder and more frequent and I felt her body clench around me as she orgasmed. The rush of passion came into her blood; making it sweeter, sending me over the edge and I disentangled my fangs from her skin, as I grunted against her and came.
Sealing the puncture marks with a quick rake of my tongue, I rolled to the side, bought the covers up and over myself

Immortal Cravings   Forty Three-Marley
I shoved the last of my clothing into the bag and sighed, looking around the room, making sure I didnât miss anything. I was going to be gone for a minimum of three days, maybe longer. Satisfied I'd packed everything I would need, I zipped the bag closed and stood.âMarley.âI turned to the doorway, of my room, where Absinthe stood, imposing and regal, as always. Heâd dressed in the robes of his house, and I knew there were delegates from other Vampire houses on their way. Abe didnât like wearing the robes and only did if he had to. A folder sat in his hands, and he held it out to me. Crossing to him, I took it and opened it, looking over the contents. âWhatâs this?ââMaps, directionsâĶ money.ââI have money Abe.â I said, looking up at him.Absinthe shook his head, pursing his lips. âI donât want you using your personal money for this Marley, if itâs not enough, let me know. This is purely professional curtesy, making sure Korin doesnât know about us is imperative.âI blinked and clos

I watched Marley leave. Standing in my room, peering out of the window like a creepy old man, my stomach churned with sickness as the blacked-out SUV left the mansion grounds and turned toward the airport, the feeling I would never see my human lover again, building with every mile further she was away form me.The knock at my door was light, but I knew exactly who it’d be. There was only one idiot who would come to see me, while I was in this kind of mood. Most of the other vamps in the coven had given me a wide berth, when I had been stomping through the mansion. They knew better than to try to stop me to ask what was wrong. I would have lost my shit and snapped at anyone.

With the use of Absinthe’s private jet, the trip from Miami to Vegas had been relatively short. Now, sitting in the car, watching the scenery fly past, my mind couldn’t help but go back to the mansion and where I’d left my heart.Being in the middle of a love triangle with two undead beings was never my intention and the fact they were brothers… made it almost impossible to choose one of them.“Marley...”I turned to the vampire by my side. Maddison was a pretty woman. With golden curls and bright blue eyes, she would have been no older than eighteen when she had been turned and she had kept that beauty. I vowed to myself to one day, ask her how she and Tony met.“We’re almost there. This is the last turn before we arrive at Korin's Coven.”I nodded, looking out the window again at the bright lights twinkling in the distance, they called me, wanting me to come and blow the ten-million dollars i

“I have promised my cousin I will not hurt you, Miss Brennan and I will hold myself to the promise I made him, as to cross Absinthe would see my head roll; but my fledglings are only just old enough to have hunted for themselves.” He leaned back and stared down at me, as if contemplating if I was worth the effort, he was having to put into all of this. “And you would be a good triumph for them. So close. So fresh. So, you staying here, will be interesting.”A growl from behind me and I turned my head, not to Tony, but to his fledgling.Maddison’s figure had stiffened, and she had stepped closer to me, her bright blue gaze coppering in anger and I knew she would have me in the car in seconds, while Tony fought Korin; if it came to it.I turned my attention back to the vampire Lord in front of me, seeing his own eyes fading to copper and the tension in the air became electrifying.Tony’s gruff deep voice came from behind

âAre you all right Marley?âI didnât want to have the phone on speaker, but Rhayden refused to let me answer Marleneâs call, without him hearing her voice.âI'm fine Abe, just tired.âI frowned and looked at my brother, as he mouthed bullshit. I nodded and leaned in closer to the phone. âYou sound a little shaken? Did something happen? Was Korin welcoming?âThere was a pause and then a whispered reply. âMore thanâĶâRhayden vacated his chair in two seconds and left the room and my own anger kicked into overdrive and I gripped the edge of the table. But my anger wasnât aimed at the woman on the end of the phone. I knew what my cousin was like. âWhat?ââNothing Abe. I am fine, I am tired. You told me to ring when I got in.

My alarm blared and I groaned, rolling to the side to silence it. My hand touched the empty space on the bedside table, and I blinked, lifting myself to my elbow and looked around with gritty eyes. The sound came from the floor, and I leaned over the side of the bed and scooped the device off the shag carpet, where I’d dropped it the night before.Silencing it, I stared at the time.Six-pm.Maddison and Tony would be at least another half hour, until the sun was low enough for them to wake, then I would have to wait for them to be ready. Sighing, I lay back on the bed and opened my phone, reading emails quickly, before scrolling through my non-existent messages.Absinthe hadn’t left any messages and I frowned. Usually when he and I argued, there were at least a dozen messages or voicemails, with vague threats and empty promises.There was nothing.After twenty minutes of doom scrolling through various social media platforms, I go

A voice wafted over me like stale smoke, and I turned my gaze to the pale man. In this light, Korin James looked almost albino and I wondered how he got away with looking remotely human. Could no-one in the hotel tell there was something wrong with this man?“Lord James. What are you doing here?” I hissed and was met with a cold stare.“I am here to meet with you over the problem we have with the Mated.” Korin replied, his eyes regarding me with unnatural calm. “That is why you are here? Is it not Miss Brennan?”I glared at the vampire, before turning back toward the elevators. I’d go back up to my room and wait for Tony and Maddison, maybe even call Absinthe, but Korin caught me just above the elbow, stopping me, and leaned in close to my ear. His breath was stale with blood, and I gagged, pulling away a little, but the vampire held me steady. “There must be a reason for you to have been sent by Absinthe. My cousi

Fuck, I forgot how much I hated Vegas. The lights, the smells, the sin. I think I counted at least a dozen prostitutes standing out the front of the hotel where Marley, Maddison and Tony were staying. One of them sauntered up to me and I rolled my eyes, shoving her away, as she tried to wrap her arm around my waist. âHey, you prissy little wanker!âI turned on her, grabbing her arm and dragged her toward me, baring my fangs, letting my eyes fade. âI suggest you go home, get off the drugs and stop selling your ass.âThe woman all but yelped, wrenching her arm away from me and turned on her heels, running off and I smirked to myself. I knew I shouldnât have shown my true nature, but I was not in the mood to play nice to a creature who didnât give a fuck about themselves. Plus, who was she going to tell? More importantly, who would believe her? Her eyes had been so glazed over; I could see my own reflection.Pushing my hand through my hair, I turned and walked into the hotel and went t

My hand went to my mouth, and I looked at Absinthe. Tears were on his lashes, and he closed his eyes, letting the drops slide down his cheeks. “Oh my god.”“Now you know. You know why I didn’t want to tell you about Johan, or where he was. It’s not the fear of you leaving Marley. Honestly, I could live with that, to know you are safe…” He opened his eyes, his irises almost white and I heard the pain and anguish in his voice. “It’s the fear of him taking the one thing—which is worth more to me, than my own immortality. That is what scares me.”My hand reached out to him, and I gripped his hand in mine, squeezing it. “As much as I want to be angry with you, I understand why you did it. But Abe… he has to be bought to justice for what he did.”“I know, and he will. I just need time to make a pla—” The phone rang, making us both jump and Absinthe reached out, pick

“Abe?”Absinthe slowly lifted his eyes, looking at me. “I was wondering when you would get here.”I closed the door to the library, and leaned against it, looking at my dark-haired lover.He looked sad. Lost almost and I sighed, walking over and sat next to him. We didn’t speak for a few minutes.His gaze couldn’t hold mine… that’s when I understood, and my heart broke into a million pieces. “You knew about Johan and Johnathan.”“Yes.”He knew… I didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “Why didn’t you tell me?”Absinthe’s bottom lip trembled, “Because I knew you would have a one-track mind about it. That it would cloud your judgement.”“What judgement? That he is as crazy as his ancestor—”“Father.”“What?”“Johnathan was Johan’s father

It had been twenty-four hours since the trial, and while things should have been feeling fairly normal… something was niggling in the back of my mind. Something didn’t feel right.I hadn’t seen either Absinthe or Rhayden tonight, but I knew I would probably have Rhayden between my legs any time—“Hey, what are you doing?”I looked up at Rhayden, seeing him standing at the door, arms crossed over his chest. He still sported the remnants of the braids I’d done the night before, and I smirked, returning my attention to the device in my hands. “Recovering from your brother.”“Was he rough with you Mars?”There was not an inkling of concern in this ass’ voice, and I rolled my eyes at him, flipping him off, which earned a chuckle. After Absinthe had fucked me three times, and sent me insane with pleasure, we’d laid quietly and not spoken. I had been drained, not only mentally,

I waved to Othello as his entourage took him out of the mansion grounds to a hotel owned by our kind, which would house him and the other coven leaders for the rest of the night.There was no fucking way I wanted them in my mansion any longer.It had been a rough night.There were moments where I thought I would have to fight Mathias, or tear my brother off him. But in the end, justice prevailed and Marley was safe.Speaking of Marley.I turned and walked back into the mansion, seeking out her scent.I knew she would be with Rhayden. Hopefully not impaled on him again. That, I had only just barely tolerated. While I knew they fucked, I didn’t want to see it.There.Turning to one of the four parlors in the lower halls of the mansion, I stopped at the doorway. Marley was sitting a small armchair, Rhayden at her feet and she was… was she braiding his hair?I chuckled as the pure bliss on my brother’s fac

The vampire at the end of the table had everyone’s attention. Even his so-called supporters stared at him as if he had just sacrificed a small child in their presence.Mathias sat down and leaned back in his chair, looking at us all. “It wasn’t Johnathan.”Wasn’t…? this guy was just so fucking negative. What the actual fuck?“It was. I saw the tatt—”“It wasn’t.” Mathias snarled, crossing his arms over his chest. “It was his brother. Kendrick didn’t like the fact his brother had been slaughtered by Absinthe.”“I did not slaughter him. He attacked me.” Abe spat and Mathias rolled his eyes.“Whatever. Kendrick said Absinthe had no right to ruin his family’s legacy like he had. Johnathan’s final wish was to destroy his own coven, kill out the bloodline. He never liked the fact he was a vampire. Never accepted what he

You could have heard a pin drop in the room… well, you could only hear my breathing, and I thought that worse. Why the fuck did I have to be surrounded by dead things?“Mathias, you called this trial, I call for you to make the opening address.”My attention turned to the man at the end of the table. Surrounded by other vampire coven leaders, Mathias tried to look impressive as he stood. But in reality, I could see what a weak creature he really was, and I wondered if he had been like this when he had been human; because I could tell with the fang marks on his neck, he wasn’t born a vampire like my lovers.Mathias leaned forward, his knuckles going to the table as if to be intimidating, and glared at me. “This human, killed one of my Senior Coven, without evidence of any wrong doing on my member’s behalf. She needs to be punished for it. And I would gladly punish her if you cannot.”He was kidding, right

I walked beside Marlene, Rhayden on her other side, as we moved through the quietened mansion toward the library and to her fate.This was going to be a shit show.I could feel it in my bones.Never in the history of the vampire nation, had a human stood trial for killing a vampire. They were usually dealt with quicker than this. Slaughtered, or drained of their blood, or left in the wilds to die. This whole situation was unheard of and the fact it was happening to our human, set my teeth on edge.This could go one of two ways.Marley would be found not-guilty, in which she would be free and we would be able to continue on how we had been.Of she would be found guilty and her life would be forfeit; and I would not be okay with that. This meeting could potentially be the death of my beautiful lover, and I had to decide if I would stand for it.Would I allow Othello end Marlene’s life?No. I knew I wouldn’t.An

My heart fluttered. God damn it. Again?I hated serum so fucking much. My head pounded, and my eyes slowly opened.Absinthe and Rhayden were leaning over me, their hair curtaining their beautiful faces. I smiled, reaching up and stroked their cheeks, my touch melting the tension from their features as they looked down at me.“My boys…”“Marley.” Absinthe cooed, leaning down. He gently pressed his lips against mine, before Rhayden did the same.“We thought we’d lost you Mars.”“I’m not going anywhere just yet.” I smiled, moving to sit up and Absinthe helped, propping pillows behind my back.Rhayden smiled, looking to his brother as he climbed from the edge of the bed. “I’ll go tell Othello she’s awake.”Absinthe nodded, turning back to me as Rhayden closed the door. “You left a dead Lycan on Othello—”
