  Amelia 

  

  Truly alone at last I lay atop my large bed and think about him. The feel of his skin, the beauty of his features, my memory is perfect as a vampire but memories can not compete with flesh and blood. 

  

  I feel great sadness at what should have been ours before Damian destroyed us. My mind wanders back through the centuries back to the day before our wedding. I remember the joy I felt at that moment like it was yesterday. 

  

  My heart full and bursting with excitement to become Erik’s wife, to spend the rest of our lives together. I was gathering flowers beyond the castle wall in the early morning dew when I first laid eyes on Damian. 

  

  His black horse was huge and imposing he had stopped before me and there was a look in his eyes, a portent of the pain he brought, an unease gripped my soul as he smiled at me. 

  

  By that very afternoon he had captured me alone proposing his deal. I was to be his and Erik would be allowed to live. Turning a witch the greatest of all crimes, the irony that the King himself intended to do just this once he bartered for Erik’s life was not lost on me. 

  

  I had agreed without hesitation, I could not live with Erik’s death and the King would have taken me anyway after that. He was too powerful to fight. Broken I asked for one final night, some time to think and I would leave with him at the break of dawn. I never knew until many years later he had spread the word that he had killed me as Erik’s punishment for intending to turn a witch. 

  

  I had thought back then that it would have been kinder, a closure that would have allowed him to move on with his life but it seems he has been stuck in the same purgatory as I. 

  

  Devastated I had gone running to Papa but his face as I told him all was one of loss, I knew then there was no real way to defeat Damian. A glimmer, an idea from Papa to lessen the burden of my fate. A single night, a single gift from my true love. 

  

  We had prepared and readied and as night fell Papa snuck me safely to Erik’s room. His face had been full of delight at the sight of me, boldly I approached him in what was supposed to be my wedding undergarment, light and soft material leaving little to the imagination. 

  

  He had tried to look away and resist but I had given him no option, pressing myself into him letting him feel the curve of my body touch his, turning his face, his lips almost touching mine, it barely took anything to close that distance and taste him for the first time. 

  

  Hesitant at first he returned my kiss, I knew he was no virgin like me, he had been alive for hundreds of years before I was born but there was a sweetness and innocence to that kiss. 

  

  Breaking the kiss he placed his forehead to mine “Lia we can’t we’re not married yet” I smiled running my hand around his neck, tangling my fingers in his long hair dark hair, so soft so perfect. “Are you planning on leaving me at the alter?” I asked breathlessly. 

  

  He chuckled softly brushing my hair from my face with a reverence that I could never forget “Never my love, I will love you until my dying breath, I am yours for eternity” 

  

  Thankfully his lips claim mine so he can not see my heart breaking in my eyes. 

  

  His kiss becomes more confident, more needy and I respond with everything I have, I tug the back of his hair as he leaves a trail of blistering kisses from my mouth to the base of my neck “Yes my love” I whisper and he picks me up laying me gently on the bed. His eyes search mine “Are you sure?” I nod vigorously “Never more so” and I see his last shred of restraint evaporate. 

  

  His strong hands work under the hem of the night dress pulling it over my head leaving me fully exposed to him, his eyes hungrily devour every inch of me as he removes his own coverings. 

  

  I am shocked when he settles himself between my legs and a wicked smile spreads over his face as he disappears into my most private place. Jumping a little as his hot wet tongue licks me there but oh how good it felt, as he sucked and circled my clit, gently pushing inside of me with a finger at the same time, causing a pleasure I could never have imagined. Within moments a strange but wonderful fire had rocked through my body giving me a bliss that I could not have imagined possible. 

  

  He crawled up my body then and the feeling of him excited every part of me, deep passionate soul stealing kisses taken from me, his hot wet tongue sucking and nipping at my breasts and his hardness positioning at the opening he had just brought to life. 

  

  The questioning look for reassurance that I fully give and then the exquisite feeling of him slowly carefully beginning to fill me, a little at a time, almost so slow that I wanted to hurry him along, feeling him reach a barrier and the cry I gave as he pushes past it, the obstacle to true fulfilment gone. 

  

  How he stayed there letting me feel him as he kissed me and then the slow gentle movements building up, my legs wrapped around him needing to feel everything that I could. The pace, the passion building, my own instinct to move with him growing, as he made my body sing beneath him. The desire in his eyes as I guided him to the base of my neck encouraging him to drink from me, the intense feeling of fireworks once more rocking my body as he did and his last powerful thrust as he filled me with his own climax. 

  

  One perfect night, my virginity given to my heart, my gift to take with me the memory of us together in bliss. 

  

  He didn’t even notice the sleeping potion I slipped into the wine I handed him, didn’t wake up as I used the little knife and vial to pierce his vein and take his blood. Nor as I used his saliva to close both our wounds keeping my secret. He never blinked as I kissed his lips in a final goodbye. 

  

  Mercifully Damian was not a patient man and planned to take me and turn me as soon as he got his hands on me, he missed the little vial I swallowed right before he pulled me to him to claim me. The blood coursing through my veins turning me not his own, the change already triggered by that of my one true love.

    Clara I allow my hands to roam over his hard muscular chest, sliding them up around his neck and into his dark hair, I feel myself tug at it with need as his tongue becomes more and more insistent. My mind whirls with the incredible feel of every flick of his tongue, lost to my need for him. Suddenly his weight shifts, those strong hands grip my hips and I’m pulled on top of him as he shifts back, never breaking our kiss. This new position puts me right over his rock hard need and oh my, it is impressive. I can’t help the moan that escapes me as he grips my hips pulling me closer to him. Feeling bereft as his lips leave mine but only for a second as he leaves a blazing trail of kisses from my lips to the base of my neck, where he buries his face into the nape of my neck and then begins to gently, teasingly suck a spot, I feel the graze of his teeth and then the most delicious shiver of pleasure runs through me as he bites into me, slowly sensually drinking from me. It has n

    Clara The cool night air bites at my cheeks as we step out onto the street, the feeling of his hand in mine electric. The hotel looms before us and we both take a step in that direction and then pause with an awkward laugh. “You’re staying there too?” He chuckles in that deep hypnotic tone. I nod suddenly shy, even if we are the same, how do I tell him about the tragedy of my life, explain what I am doing here and then another thought hits me, what if he is from one of the houses loyal to Damien? Knowing my luck he will be, which leads me to another even more terrifying thought, what if he was actually sent by Damien? Could it really be a coincidence that he is here so close to the mansion by accident. I feel my whole body tense as the pessimistic thoughts flood through me. A gentle tug on my hand snaps me back into the moment, his beautiful face filled with concern as he studies my features. Surely someone who looks like a literal angel can’t be evil? Yet I know how stupid

    Clara Sitting alone at a bar has to be a new low for me but I don’t know what else to do with myself. The bar itself is decent, in the bustling town not far from the mansion, I had to leave, to breathe, I’ve been a vampire for exactly eighteen years and those years have been miserable. I couldn’t leave Amelia, she protected me before she even knew me and I had to do the same but the last few weeks have been emotionally exhausting. Erik was gone for an especially long time this last trip, Miranda and Papa no longer speak even to each other it’s like they’re dead inside and everyone else has long ago departed the sinking ship like the rats they are. There’s only so much flower arranging and talking to an unresponsive Amelia and Nico one can take before they feel like they’re starting to go insane. I just need a little space, a little fresh air before I go back. I jump a little as I feel a presence slide into the bar seat beside me, their energy is electric but I’m so drained

  • Infinite Love    Chapter 77

    *** 18 Years Later*** Erik Standing before the once grand house that I had called home for so many years I hesitate to walk up the steps, now strewn with leaves and debris. The formerly immaculate white building that had neatly manicured wisteria and Ivy winding around the grand entrance pillars is now overgrown and greying. It looks cold and empty, soulless, a far cry from when it was bustling with our family. The big window shutters all firmly closed even though it is the middle of the day, shielding the world from the misery that lies beyond them. I don’t blame the others for abandoning us the house is a monument to pain and loss. My anger and bitterness consumes me, heightened every time I return here. I have spent eighteen years scouring the globe for my son, turning over every rock, investigating every possible sighting, I have never come even close to him. I am a monumental failure and I dread each time I must come back empty handed to tell Amelia how useless I am.

  • Infinite Love    Chapter 76

    Amelia Physically I feel fine, better than fine, my body is like nothing ever happened to it but my heart is forever changed. I had always thought nothing could compare to the love I felt for Erik but the love I have for Rowan consumes me, yet, with it comes fear and anxiety like I had never imagined. I can feel the raw power radiating from him, it’s like nothing I have ever experienced and it fills part of me with a hope that has always eluded me, that Damian can be defeated. In equal measures the knowledge of the terror Damian would be able to reign with that power under his control, it chills me to the core, everyone would be doomed. And that thought has my body trembling with rage, that we have let the immediate threat to Rowan slip through our fingers. She’s out there free to betray us all over again and put my son in danger. I hear the roar of anger that releases from me like it has come from someone else. I move to chase her through the passages, to capture her befo

    Erik As soon as I walk through the doors to the bedroom my heart instantly calms and then soars. Lia is just walking out of the bathroom, dressed and looking perfectly healthy once more. Clara surprisingly is holding Rowan and they seem to be under each others spell, his tiny little hand touching her face and neither even so much glances my way as I enter. Nico rises from the sofa where he was lounging, he looks relaxed but I can tell he is on full alert underneath the exterior. His hand pats me on the shoulder and he leans in “How did it go?” His voice low to keep the conversation between us. A heavy sigh releases from me before my words “About as good as you would expect, the guards are helping her to move on as we speak” Even with our hushed tones I see Lia’s ears prick up at our conversation and she changes direction to come and join us. Her eyes narrow “what are you two whispering about?” We exchange looks, I had wanted to keep her out of this, let her enjoy Rowan and
