I took the stone out of my pocket. It was definitely glowing now. The more I stared at it, the more I could see something swirling around in it. I felt the energy in it, so I knew it had worked as far as trapping something, but I wondered if the wolf’s soul had been trapped or Tim’s. The witch had assured me she cast a spell to trap a wolf’s soul and not a human’s, but I wondered how reliable that was since she wasn’t sure if the stone would even work.
Dominique needed more time to get over her grief before I offered this to her. I also wanted to know if she still wanted to be a wolf. I know she didn’t want to be one when it first happened. It took everything she had to accept it, as she thought I would no longer want her. However, she finally accepted it once I told her I would
We walked into my room, and I sat her on the bed. I walked over, picked up the stone, and put it in my pocket. I wanted to explain what this was before I gave it to her. I just hoped she would think about this before using it. I regretted the fact that I brought it up. I sat on the bed so I was facing her. “Before I give it to you, I want you to listen to what I have to say. Tim and I worried that you might die if your wolf was gone. We were worried that if Alpha died, you might die as well. We didn’t know if you would survive because you were my servant. I have researched over the years and could find nothing about a wolf being the human servant of a vampire. I have found nothing about a wolf being with a vampire. I also found nothing about wolves surviving their mate’s death when their souls are joined like yours and Tim&
What worried me was not her grief but how she had been acting since I gave her the stone. I had caught her holding it, and it almost looked like she was having an internal conversation with herself. The strange part was that the stone was glowing, almost as if it was talking back to her. I knew that her children had stopped by several times as I could always smell them in the house when I awoke. However, they hadn’t stayed long enough for me to wake up until I awoke to Michael in my room one night. My eyes opened, and I immediately smelled him. I opened my eyes and found him sitting in a chair facing the bed. I sat up, and he looked up at me. “Michael? What are you doing in here?”
“I don’t know what you mean,” Dominique said as she looked away. “Yes, you do. Talk to me, Dominique. I’m worried that something is happening to you.” “There’s nothing to tell, Nathaniel. Really.” “I will leave this alone, for now, Dom, but not forever. I would like to take you to England for a little while. I would like to introduce you to Victoria and Barnaby. I also want to show you some places that are important to me.” “When did you want to go?
“Please, Nathaniel. It’s been so long since I’ve been touched this way. Make me forget my pain for a while.” “You know I have a hard time denying you, Dominique. I don’t want you to push me away. I’ve waited so patiently, and I can’t have that ruined for one night of lust,” I said as I looked into her eyes. “It won’t be ruined. Please. I need to feel alive again, and you make me feel things I haven’t felt in a long time.” I closed my eyes as Dominique rubbed her hips against me. I was drowning in her scent and the feel of her body under mine. I found myself crushing her lips as sh
“Grab the bedposts, Dominique.” “What?” her lazy reply came. “I’m not done with you yet. Grab the bedposts.” When she did what I’d asked, I thrust back into her. Her head lulled against my shoulder as I began pulling out and shoving back into her sensitive walls. My hands went up and cupped her breasts, squeezing them as I kissed her shoulder. Her moan in my ear set me off, and I began to pump faster. I squeezed her breasts as I pinched her nipples, trying to slow my pace back down. This time would last longer if I had my way about it.
I had to get some of this aggression out before I did something stupid. So I walked briskly through the house and went out the back door, not caring that I was still naked. I ran through the forest a few times until I spotted a bear. I felt the urge to kill it, but I would toy with it first. At least it would give me a decent fight. Ten minutes later, I ran back to the house. I was covered in the bear’s blood and probably looked like a lunatic. But at least I had enough time to take a shower before dawn hit. Hopefully, Dominique would allow me to stay the day here before telling me she didn’t want me living here anymore. I knew I could never force her to be by my side. It would just make her resent me, and neither of us would be happy.
I woke up and wondered where I was for a few minutes when I felt a weight beside me. The night before quickly came back to me. I opened my eyes and found Nathaniel on top of the covers. He’d kept his promise and not trapped me even though I had fallen asleep in his arms. It was strange to see him like this. It almost looked like he was just sleeping.&nb
I awoke and immediately felt the empty bed beside me. I sighed and opened my eyes. I’m not even sure why I was expecting Dominique to still be in bed with me. Humans didn’t sleep that long. Even though we had gone to bed later than she usually did, Dominique still wouldn’t sleep that long. I wish I could know what it felt like to go to bed with her and wake up with her in my arms. Of course, I knew it would never happen, but it was something I could dream about, nonetheless. I got out of bed and opened my link to Dominique. Great sadness and confusion were coming from her. The hallway had no windows so that I could walk around freely during the day here. I pulled a pair of sweatpants on and walked to her room. Her door was open, so I just walked right up to it. I frowned at what I saw.
