Then he waited, tilting his head slightly to pick up the subtle noise of her breathing within the room. He instantly recognized the deep rhythmic breathing of human sleep.

Confident she was sleeping, he entered her room through the open window, approached the single bed she lay in, and stared down at her. She was fast asleep on her side facing him. He crouched down in front of her studying her face. She unconsciously shivered. While she wasn't aware of his presence, her body was. He reached over and pulled her blankets higher over her shoulder allowing his fingertips to caress her soft flesh

wake her, influence her, and make her give him what he wanted. But was that all he wanted was her pure blood to burn a heavenly path down his throat after he took her?

No, it wasn't. He wanted more, mu

    It was moments like this that Jason felt such overwhelming pride. However, it was well-founded and earned. His pack was a force to be reckoned with, and no one would oppose them when they were together. The others would follow his directions without the slightest hesitation, even if it meant certain death. It was the same as he would for Lucas. Their strength was legendary and feared among the Vampires, for it wouldn't take much for them to defeat any of them there tonight, except Lucas. His power was unequaled, save for Valear. To see them now, left images burned in the minds of the others there. The seven overlarge males, capable of such strength and mercilessness, guarding their race's future was a sight not seen often. Lucas would go to a mortal event more than he'd ever venture out into his world probably in part to the risk to his life. Although he was more powerful than any of them, in opposing numbers, he may not survive an attack.Music rocketed through the club in earspli

    “Elsa?” Linda noticed that she almost started. She turned her gaze toward her from the window almost embarrassed.“Yes.”“I have to know….” She paused looking at her friend, “What did that man say to you last night?” Linda saw Elsa's cheeks pink up. She looked down at the plate of fries playing with one of them. When she spoke she didn't meet her gaze.“You didn't hear?” she said quietly.“No. And it's killing me.” She confessed. She might have heard if she wasn't so dreamily mesmerized by his looks.Elsa tried to stifle a smile at Linda's eager confession, but it was unsuccessful. “Well…” She paused. It wasn't easy for Elsa to talk about herself.“Now you are killing me.” Linda blurted in exasperation, “Come on Elsa.”She laughed, “It's embarrassing. Give me a minute.” She finally met her gaze. “He told me I was beautiful.”Linda's brows shot up, “Really? You're kidding! That man told you that you were beautiful? That drop-dead gorgeous rich guy?”“Crazy, isn't it?” Elsa shook her

  • The Slave Queen   The women I want

    Being a confirmed bachelor just made it easier to flit around from one woman to another and deny any commitments that might cause questions. Beautiful women in L. A was not in short supply, but there was only one woman like Elsa. He smiled at the thoughts that Lydia had when she spotted Elsa and him together. She raged with envy. She should. Elsa was divine. If only she knew how she looked when he came upon her. Her back was to him and her head was tilted slightly while she examined the painting; A painting that he bought for her. She was a vision and no piece of art in that place could match how lovely she was. He scanned her thoughts when he spoke to her and found she was very modest. She didn't think she was worth the attention he gave her and allowed what little confidence she had, to vanish when Lydia showed up. How wrong she was. So he decided to go see her again. Unfortunately, when he went to see her again he ditched Jason. There would be hell to pay when he went home. Again

  • The Slave Queen   Your presence is everything

    Jason understood the pressure Lucas was under. He knew his role in the association was essential to the survival of both their races. Now, there was this girl…that affected him to the likes that Jason had never witnessed before. It threw a wrench in the enormous responsibilities that Lucas already had. Yes, he wanted him to be happy, but this couldn't have come at a worse time. Now Jason would make sure she was protected also because Lucas wished it. He looked at him, “There's a storm coming.”“Yes, there is,” Lucas said seriously.The next week went by entirely too fast and Elsa threw herself into her classes because it seemed to be the only way that she could try and erase the tall handsome stranger.That following Friday Tanya sat in the bleachers beside Linda, while Friday afternoon track practice was occurring on the field below.

    He turned away from her curious stare, “You should leave. I'm in no mood for company tonight.”Her eyes lit up as she figured out what he was feeling. It was quite simple after knowing him for a few centuries. Her crimson lips pulled into a sensual smile. She laid her long scarlet painted fingernails on his desk, pausing to look at the new grooves carved into the shiny lacquered top, before walking around it toward him trailing them beside her. She didn't ask him about the damage on the desk. “What is it Lucas that makes you—look--happy?”He focused his irritated violet stare on her, “You always were a persistent bitch, weren't you Celeste? Always showing up when you're not wanted.”She asked, “You always get irritable when I show up. I think you're hiding your affection for me.” She knelt before him placing her long elegant fingers on his thighs. “Are you going to tell me why you feel amorous tonight, my Prince?” He despised her when she called him that, “I think you'd better le

  • The Slave Queen   I am a wealthy man

    She wasn't prepared for the overwhelming enigma that he created by seeing him in the bright lights of the hospital. He was truly charismatically masculine and even with her lack of experience with men, she could see that he oozed sexuality. Her breath caught in her throat. She must've looked like a fool with her jaw hanging open. All she could muster was, “I didn't hear you come in.” Truth is, the words were very hard to speak, but she managed with hardly a stutter.He smiled, “You seemed preoccupied.” He walked up beside her and set the pillow on the bed.She could feel her heart thud in her chest as he approached her. His dark curls fell slightly to his shoulders and dusted his brow in sharp contrast to his blue-indigo gaze. Then when he spoke, his deep voice laced with that sensual Scottish brogue was utterly hypnotic. She couldn't help but be fixated on him. Again, she must have looked silly, just staring, not saying a word. Thoughts filled her about the past week and how she cou

    When she tilted her head with a puzzled expression on her face, he wanted to kiss her. She had no idea how positively alluring that look of innocence was. However, he wasn't ready to kiss her. He knew it would be too much for him to handle and this wasn't the place. “I meant,” he added, “I was smitten the first moment I saw you several weeks ago, then when you showed up at the auction, I knew I had to find out where you lived.” He lied dispelling her worries.“How did you find out?”“You took a cab home from the auction. I saw the company name on the door and I contacted the company and found where they dropped you.” Another lie.“You watched me leave?” her eyes widened slightly. Did that mean that he was interested in her? She couldn't help but feel a thrill go through her to know that this man followed her out of the building last Sunday. If anything women would be following him everywhere. “I didn't want you to leave, and yes, I watched.” This wasn't a lie.She couldn't help but s

    The woman was completely sinless. He let a smile pull at the corners of his lips. There was nothing more than he wanted to do at that moment, but to teach her some sins. He stared at her for a moment longer, then slowly grinned, “Accept what I say to you Elsa, I never give compliments lightly.”She flushed even more than she thought possible. Yet, with every will of her being she didn't want him to leave despite her embarrassment. She didn't even know his name, or who he was, but she was fascinated by his presences that she completely forgot to ask him. She felt so undeserving of his attention because she thought he was too perfect, yet over and over, she kept seeing him and now, here he was with her. Is this a dream? Could he be real? Without thinking she reached up and touched his cheek to see if he was genuine. She traced her fingers along his strong jaw and saw the muscle bulge as he clenched his teeth at her stroke. Instantly, she felt ashamed. She had no right to just touch

    “Who? Me? You can't hold me against my will Mr. Edwards. I have rights and people will be looking for me. Besides, I'm not the one with glowing eyes.” She accused.“Yes you do have rights.” Lucas took Elsa's hand and turned to leave giving Jason a private look as he left.Jason read his meaning, the girl was his.“where are you going? Lucas, Elsa….I'm talking to you!” she yelled as Lucas shut the door.“Are you going to hurt her?”“No, Elsa, there are other ways.” He nearly took her life when she had brought information of Elsa, but he'd since changed his mind, “She is no threat to us.” He led her to his door, opened it, and allowed her to enter first. Elsa noticed that the room looked as though nothing had happened only a few hours ago. The table and chairs by the fire were gone, obviously broken. She shuddered at the images of the fight. She turned and faced Lucas, “Will that…that is…” She didn't know exactly what to call him.“Jack.”“Yes.” She involuntary touched her neck where h

    Ted caught up with her halfway down the hall. “Why don't you believe at least one of us?”She stopped and turned to him, “Because Tanya's story is full of holes. She never wanted Elsa near Lucas in the first place. She tried her best to sabotage that date they had the other night and she treated her like crap. Now she has made up this ridiculous story to make him look like a freak. He is a respected, honest businessman and no one has been able to discredit him, professionally or otherwise.” Linda shook her angrily, “She must think we're stupid enough to believe this crazy story or she would have never told us about it.”“You should always believe your friends. Think of how frightened she was of him and how frightened I was when I saw him last night.”“Of course you were. He's quite intimidating, being so wealthy and all. And you did trick his girlfriend into going out with you. I'm sure you would be fit to kill if someone did that to you. Also, Tanya is a good actress.”“What about

    “Natie.” Elsa said in greeting, not knowing what else to say. Despite the woman being a brunette, her short cropped hair had blond and auburn streaks throughout. To Elsa, it actually looked pretty good. She was a heavy set woman and when she smiled dimples appeared at the corners of her mouth making her look undeniably cute and trustworthy. “And this is Melody,” she placed her hand on the other woman's shoulder, “She is an expert in fashion.”“Melody.” Elsa greeted still gaping . Melody was a tall, lovely, thin woman, who was evidently no stranger to fashion. There wasn't a wrinkle on her tan slacks, white embroidered blouse, and multicolored scarf that she wore loosely around her neck and draped over her left shoulder and chest.“It's nice to meet you Miss Collins.” She stated genuinely. She turned back to Elsa, “I know they seem like normal staff here on the estate, but Mr. Edwards does not hire simple staff. We all are highly educated.” She reached up and tipped Elsa's mouth

  • The Slave Queen   Miss Collin

    Bob Mathews had been a truck driver for twenty three years. He hadn't a wife or kids, so his job was his life. He had tried the wife thing once, but like everything else in his life, it didn't pan out. The only thing that he stayed with him through his fifty six years, had been his love for the big trucks and the lonely roads. He was definitely a shallow man, who had seen too many bar fights and women who found men that drove the big rigs appealing, but they weren't the kind of women you'd bring home to your ma. He tucked a cigarette in his mouth as his right hand searched for his lighter on the seat. He was singing, rather badly, to an old Willie Nelson tune as he watched the road ahead. A light drizzle made him turn on the wipers. His hand was still searching for his lighter, and out of frustration, he took his eyes off the road and glanced down. He quickly found it and flicked it, causing an eerie glow inside the cab. He released the little red tab causing the flame to extinguish,

    Dreadful realization hit her as his words sunk in. He thought she was worthless compared to his mortal pet! She turned and slammed her fists against the wall. He couldn't do this to her. He told her he still cared about her. She could try and make him love her again. No, that was impossible, she saw the way he looked at that woman in his bed. She never thought she could witness that kind of emotion from him. Her features began to change in her turmoil. He didn’t mean it, he was angry, her mind tried to reason and she would prove it, “I could kill her.” Her words had the opposite effect.His eyes flashed instant fury, “Not if you value your life Celeste!” his voice reflected the incredible power he held. Her face registered alarm and she crouched in front of him at his threat, “Could you kill me Lucas?” she hissed through her teeth. “Is she worth it?”He didn't hesitate, “Yes!”“Over here! Over a mortal!”“Yes!” he roared.“You are a fool Lucas, she is mortal!”“Not for much longer, y

    She'd never felt such joy at the feeling of his flesh fully against hers. His firm body pressed her into the mattress and she relished the protection of his weight. She could feel his hand down her leg and gently, pulled it up against his waist as he settled between her thighs. His hand then circled down and cupped her bottom, causing her to lift her hips against him. She struggled to catch her breath against the electrifying feeling his hands did to her skin. She needed something from him that she couldn't say or know. He'd awakened an immeasurable desire in her and every inch of her being flared with tingling heat. She gasped loudly as he entered her. He covered her mouth with his bringing her back to their ecstasy. She moaned against him and he began to move within her. She expected pain, but there was none. The feeling was electrifying and it created a hunger in her. She wanted more. She moved underneath him in time with his thrusts. Lucas loved the chase; it was almost his fav

    She put her fingertips on his lips, “Then let me stay and maybe something will change on how we feel, and that this is just mere infatuation. Or maybe it will just reinforce how we feel for each other and this is real. Either way, I have to know.”She had a valid point. He knew this was real, because this was new to him and he'd been infatuated many times. This wasn't just infatuation, “I have a dark side Elsa.”“We all do.” “You may not like what you see.”“Impossible.” She breathed.He groaned and for the second time kissed her. She had won.Ted lay in his bed staring wide awake at the blanched plaster ceiling of his dorm room. He was pissed off at Linda for laying the blame at his door about Brad. He fumed about it for the last two hours before he rolled over and succumbed to a restless sleep.When Emily returned to her apartment, she noticed the door had been pried. Without thinking someone could still be in her apartment, she pushed open the door and walked in. She turned on t

    Her eyes narrowed, “I have had enough of your insensitivity. It's no wonder Elsa doesn't fall for you. You are rude, sarcastic, and a liar.”He glared back at her, “What is it with you? Why can't you just leave me alone? I have tried to tell you that I'm not interested in you, but you just can't take the hint! You're like that cat that came back. Take a hint! You are a spoiled rich daddy's the girl who cries if she can't get what she wants and you treat your friends like dirt.”Her mouth fell, “Oh! Really! At least my friends have a higher I.Q. then a rock,” She was referring to Dirk by a thrust of her thumb over her shoulder at the door of Deter's, “and I'm not the one who tricks naïve girls into your little love schemes…” He was about to protest, but she refused to let him interrupt, “Give me some credit, how obvious was that with Elsa? At least I'm honest and upfront about the things I want!”He grew angry and seized her by the arms. The only time he ever laid his hands on a woma

I've never felt like this before and you're so sure about yourself and how you feel,” She looked at him, “I just don't know how to deal with this.”“There is no need to be afraid.” He pulled her closer to him and left his arms around her, “just go with it. “ he nuzzled the top of her head with his nose, closing his eyes at her exhilarating scent, “And I've never felt this way before either.”She pulled back and looked at him her eyes wide with wonder, “really?”He smiled, in all of her wide-eyed innocence she was very breathtaking. “Really? You don't have to worry. It will take care of itself. ” His hand came up and stroked her soft cheek as she laid his head against his arm.“I hope so.” She murmured.He leaned down and kissed the
