~Sunny’s Point of View~Even though Godfrey made me go back to my parents’ house, I was now a bit optimistic. I knew I’d gotten through to him on some level. He had felt me, tasted me, now he would have those memories, his body would remember it. Mine sure as hell did. Mine burned with the memory...Everyday was one more day closer to the full moon and Ember was restless. It killed me to just sit at home, everyone was afraid to talk to me which was more than fine. They knew I could probably be set off at any moment.RING RING RING RING!“Hello,” I said, answering the phone.“Hey girlie I miss you! Come out and meet us, we’re hitting the mall,” Alisha, my bestie said.Alisha was from my school and she was part of the Hollow Hill pack which was the closet pack to my parents’ house.“Yeah I’ll come out, I need a distraction, where’s everyone meeting up,” I asked, getting up to throw open my closet.“Just at the food court, I’m almost there now but we’ll hang until you show,” she said, po
~Godfrey's Point of View~ I was led to a library, no doubt filled with things pillaged illegally, but I wasn’t here for that. I tried my best not to be a rat at any rate. “Now there’s a relic if I ever saw one,” I heard a very thick accented voice say. Vampires often have an incredibly dry sense of humor that really isn't even humor at all. I lowered the hood of my cloak and turned to see the Queen, dressed as if she were attending a ball. She had on a very tight fitting 17th century styled gown, in deep purple with a corset that wouldn’t allow for breathing if she needed to do so. She had on enough jewelry that if sold could feed a small country for a century. “Looking lovely as ever, I appreciate you seeing me before twilight,” I said, stepping forward and kissing her hand. Vampires rarely shared a greeting such as this but she was titled and it was appropriate. She would be offended if I didn't recognize her for her position. Not that she was hardly returning the gesture. “L
~Godfrey's Point of View~This little girl was just … a horrible tease. Maybe I did need to drop my guard, let Sunny … do what exactly? She was not only a teenager but she was Ash’s child, I just couldn’t sexualize her! Even though seeing her naked was damn near enough to make me insane, I couldn’t let her see that.Could I really … mate this … child? Could I ever see her as anything other than that? Something told me taking her back to my quarters would be a horrible idea. I guessed she could either sense my inner conflict or perhaps I was taking too long to answer.“How long does it take you to fly far, what if we went somewhere else? Like the beach, somewhere warm,” she said, looking absolutely radiant in the moonlight.Her eyes sparkled with such a hopefulness, such a longing. I think I have spent more time this week looking at this girl than I’ve looked at any one single creature in the past few decades. Including the very council members I’m forced to stare at several times a mon
~Sunny’s Point of View~Godfrey was finally opening up to me, finally making an effort to get to know me. I couldn’t freak out, I couldn’t show my age and be a bubbly little girl, no. That would just turn him off. Confidence, strong, but sexy. I can do this!“My turn,” he said, pulling my arms down from his neck and taking my hand once more.We began walking again.“Describe your perfect partner,” he said.I wanted to snort and just say, you … duh. No, he probably wouldn’t believe me.“My perfect partner is … my best friend. My lover, my confidant. He holds me and makes me feel safe and loved. He is patient with me, I know I can be difficult,” I admitted.“Difficult is the same as a brat,” he asked.It took every ounce of restraint not to bend down and get a handful of sand to throw in his face. Like he would let me get away with it. If I thought my brothers were quick with stuff like that, a vampire would stop me before I even got it in my hands.“Ha, ha ha! Aren’t you hilarious,” I s
~Godfrey’s Point of View~ She couldn’t possibly understand what she was asking. Potentially three hundred years, stuck with me, dealing with me and my petulant ways? Dealing with my insatiable thirst? I could hear her wolf purring in contentment, purring at our closeness. She was daring me, egging me on and I wasn’t at all sure what to think about it. I didn’t let any other being control me. Was I already too late for that? I'd had many humans beg me for things. Money, power … my blood. I dismissed them all as unworthy of my attention. I'd never given them another thought. Could I walk away right now, could I leave her? Could I live with breaking her heart, live with the possibility that I would forever be the reason for her tears? The biggest question I had to face was … could I stand to see her with another? Simply … no. I'd lose any semblance of my mind that was left. Then the council would have me on trial. I forced my fangs away and kissed her, slowly. I dropped my body d
~Sunny’s Point of View~ Tonight had been the most salacious and unbelievable night of my life and it was far from over. The sheer magnitude of it all was making me insane. Ember couldn’t stand it, she was all over the place. I knew I was kind of … a horny girl but this … knowing that I could have this level of pleasure, of excitement, of blissful torture everyday? Ohh… my Goddess. Godfrey convinced me to play with myself on the beach, but half way through I got off my back and on all fours, and then on only three, he was behind me, taking over. I certainly knew about oral sex, I knew what it was and all that … the mechanics. But I had no idea of the feeling, the sensations, and I really had no clue about it … in my other spot. At first it freaked me out, I couldn’t understand why he thought it was a good idea. But after less than a minute, I quickly understood and I had an orgasm that was ten times what he’d given me before. Soon after I calmed down, we were back in his apartme
~Two Years Later~ ~Sunny’s Point of View~ Damn, I’ll never get tired of this view. I licked my lips and stared at my sexy mate. We were swimming in a waterfall in the rainforest at Kaieteur Falls, Guyana. Perks of having a vampire mate! Godfrey jumped in, in all his naked glory. I giggled and swam to meet him. I couldn’t believe how lucky I was to be with this amazing creature, and to have him love me and take care of literally my every need. It took a long time but I finally convinced Godfrey to stop levitating as much, and to try and embrace a bit more human-like behavior with me. The way he moved, so quick and suddenly, scared me sometimes and just made me dizzy. The old Godfrey never would have jumped in a waterfall and playfully splashed me like this, how very human-like. I was definitely rubbing off on him. “Hmmm,” I moaned into his mouth, kissing him. I quickly wrapped my legs around him, and felt his erection spring to life. When we were close, really touching at all, it
~River’s Point of View~Godfrey often picked me to personally investigate matters with him, since I touted myself as the best. But this was far more personal. Once I was briefed by my dad on the facts as they knew them so far, a huge knot formed in my stomach. “I know you’ll get to the bottom of this River, and I have to hope like hell there’s some other reason for this senseless tragedy. I … trust Godfrey, I do. I see how unbelievably happy he’s made Sunny. He would never extinguish that. She means the world to him,” my dad said. Why did I feel the tiniest sliver of doubt in his voice?“I agree but you have to admit it’s always been a concern in the back of your mind,” I replied.He sighed and took a long pause.“Of course it has been. I never wondered what type of mate any of my kids would have, I took for granted you would all have a shifter mate. But now … it’s all I think about for Meadow. Your mother prays to the Goddess every night she finds a good mate that will love her and
