Tatina POV

Being with Draco these last few years has done something wonderful for me. After surviving the hell Craig put me through, Draco has showed me nothing but love and compassion.  I know he loves me, he shows me every single day we are together.

He is patient and kind. He allows me time to decompress and be by myself. It is strange how we became a couple. First he was my rescuer then my best friend, somehow I worked myself into his bed as his lover, but ultimately he became to me the man I needed.

He doesn’t feed on me ever. He knows it is something that scares me now. He has never tried but once. I think I almost lost my mind that night. Draco being Draco held me while I cried. He helped me through so much. Then he taught me how to fight for the rights of others. He taught me how to be me. I became a warrior to stop the auctions because of him and him alone.

When I had my worst night rescuing women and men in the auction, he

    Tatina POVI look down at my sweet Draco kneeling before me. He has no idea how badly I want to say yes, but I am afraid. The only thing I know to do is be honest with him.I place my hand on top of his.“Draco, I want to be perfectly honest with you. I feel that we have always been honest with each other and there is no reason to stop that now,” I say to him.“That is all I want. I want an answer for a change. No matter what you say I will respect that,” Draco says.“There is no doubt in my mind that we love each other. Is that enough?” I ask him.“Of course, it is enough. I will love you until the end of time,” Draco says.“What is it that you want from me?” I ask him.“I want you to be my wife. I want you to be my partner in life.

    Two years after THE AUCTION Renae Dufrene POV I have been looking forward to this trip all month. When Tara suggested we celebrate her divorce with a weekend in the French Quarter, I jumped on it. I have not been to New Orleans in a while. I need a few nights filled with music, booze, and dancing. Before she married Mr. Straight and fucking narrow, we would go down at least once a month. We would stay in this fabulous rental house and party like we were locals. I was so ecstatic to find out the house was available for rent this weekend. The same guy still owns it. That is a bonus. He will be something nice to look at while we are there. Tara really needs this weekend, and I fully plan to give her a good one. Maybe I can talk her into staying longer. Marrying Jake was such a mistake. I know she loved him, but damn, why him? I have every intention to make this a wild woman’s weekend. I have already sent out a massive text to everyone we know that

I would love to reach over slap Jamie and ask him what the hell he is doing with Lester, but it is probably better if I keep my hands to myself and my opinion. Lester instructs the driver to the nearest bar. I need a drink, and I needed it the moment he stepped behind me and said Hello. Nobody wants to see their ex on their vacation. NOBODY!. Tara looks like she needs a drink or four. . What the hell is Jamie doing with my ex-husband? I know, damn I know exactly why they are together and there is no need in pretending or trying to figure it all out in my head."I can read your thoughts and so can everyone in this car.

    Draco POVTatina is terrified; hell, I am afraid. I am happy to see Renae and Lester here to help keep her calm and maybe put her mind somewhere else. Renae gets out of the car and is running straight into the house to see Tatina. Renae comes up to check on Tatina. I know it will be hard for Renae to see her like this. It is hard to see her, such a vibrant soul that Tatina is, and now she is weak. She will not be fragile for long; as her powers shift and her cravings grow, the doctor assures me that her powers will become stronger than ever after the babies are born. Her focus is not on her vampire transition or losing any of her identity as a fairy. Tatina is only focused on the two babies growing inside her, and as she changes, I can hear every thought in her head. She worries for them so much. It consumes her and makes it hard for her to care for herself. I guess that is most mothers."How is she?" Renae asks me

It is all I can think about right now and that loud thundering sound coming from within me. What is that? Why does it sound like there is a storm brewing inside of me?"Tatina, my love," Draco whispers to me from the bedroom door. I look up at him. He looks concerned and so devilishly handsome. I lick my lips and think Ummm I would love to drink from him. Blood, it is what I need, not sex, just blood!"I am so hungry, my love, and I hear this noise. It sounds like two thundering storms coming from within me. I am not sure what is going on with me. I am just so fucking hungry. I need blood. Please let me drink from you," I hiss at him.Draco opens the door and comes inside the bedroom. He looks more concerned as he comes into the room

Lester made a few phone calls for me and managed to find a nice big cabin far away from everyone.Tatina wanted off the radar, and this is definitely it. Tatina gets out of the car and walks around the cabin to see what it has to offer. "There are no neighbors," Tatina says."Nope, what am I going to eat?" I tease her."Me, I guess," she says, laughing."Lester is bringing up extra blood bags for me when He and Renae come up tomorrow," I say to her."Well, you can still eat me if you want," Tatina says, laughing. I love to see her laugh and be happy. This is the most comfortable I have seen her in a long time.I run over to her and pick her up. "I will gladly eat you anytime," I say.

    Draco POVWe all go back to Ronica’s place to gather ourselves and figure out what to do next. I have to get Tatina straight so we can get the hell out of hell. I am done with New Orleans and the vampire authority. I am sure she is too. We no longer have to worry about Samuel or Tara, but I still want to get her as far away as possible. I am sure there are pieces of Tara all over the yard from the explosion, along with a few people that were bidding on the auction. We were able to get everyone out safely that mattered. Lester called the authority building and reported the explosion at Horace’s place. I am sure there will be a cover-up. Samuel’s name will not be tarnished. The vampire authority would never take the fall or let one of their own take the fall. I could care less. I have Tatina back, and nothing else matters. She is my life.I take Tatina into the bed and breakfast. I take her straight to our room. I lay her on the b

I go to let Tatina know that I am going to check on Natie after I dress. She will need a few moments to wake up and get her a cup of coffee or a coke. I pull back the covers, and Tatina is not in bed. She must have gone to check on Natie. I cannot believe I did not realize she got out of bed. I must have slept hard last night. I dress quickly and go to Natie’s room to check on Natie and see if Tatina needs anything. I open the door, and Natie is gone. No Natie, No Jessie, and No Tatina, where is my wife? What the fuck is going on? I run to Lester’s room. I bang on the door. He opens the door in a panic.“Renae is gone,” he says as he opens the door frantically.

    I awake in the middle of the night. I cannot sleep. Draco is lying in the bed beside me and sleeping so sound. I have not seen him sleep this sound in a very long time. He deserves the sleep. Even though they are no longer human, Vampires still need sleep occasionally. It is a myth that they do not sleep. They do not need as much sleep as humans or hybrids, but they do not need some sleep here and there. Draco has always cuddled me at night, even if he does not sleep, but seeing him sleep so peacefully gives me a lot of comfort.I check the hotel room mini-fridge for a water. I want something, maybe a coke and some ice. I grab the ice bucket and quietly slip out of the room. I walk down to the ice machine and start filling up the ice bucket when I hear a strange noise and a yelp. It almost sounds like a person, but it is weak. I listen for a moment, and the sound stops.I take the ice bucket, walk over to the Coke machine, and get a coke out of i

They can trace my whereabouts in these, fuck. I pull out my phone and call a cab. I go to the side street to wait for the taxi.

He is supposed to be protecting people, not making money off of these people. The bastard needs to die, but that would force Tatina and me to go on the run. There has to be a way to make him pay for all of what he has done to these women.The lady starts moving around in the bed. “Where am I?” she asks grumbling and trying to figure out if she is safe or not.“You are safe,” I say.She looks over at me, terrified. “I am not going to hurt you. I am Draco. My wife Tatina is here also. I can get her if you are afraid of me,” I say to her calmly. I know seeing a vampire after being held by one can be a little overwhelming.“Tatina is here.
