Christopher's POV I walked down the stairs holding my breath for some reason. He was staring at me as I came down. The tension in the air was thick as his eyes followed my every movement. “My god, sunshine, you look ravishing.” he walked to me and leaned in to graze his nose on my pulse. “You smell even more delectable.” he took a deep breath before resting his forehead against mine and taking a deep breath. “Christopher! What are you doing to me?” he whispered against my lips, and I closed my eyes, waiting for his kiss. We stood there for a few seconds before he stepped back. “We should get going” I opened my eyes, disappointed, and nodded. I expected him to kiss me. I was waiting for the kiss but all he did was that? “Come on.” he stretched out his hands to me, and I took them. We walked out of the house. When we got to the car, he opened the door for me. I got in and he leaned in to help me fasten my seat belt. His face is close to mine. I anticipated the kiss a
Dante's pov I walked into the office with Eldritch and he closed the door. “He's beautiful, he's got that serious hot nerd look to him, and him in that outfit is wow, I .. “ “Eldritch, refrain from talking about what's Mine in that tone” I interrupted him. “I know better. I just wanted to say I approve” he waved his hands in defense. I nodded letting him off. I looked out the window and noticed that Christopher was staring into the office with a frown on his face. A smile crept on my face as the idea began to form. “I know that look. What's the hell are you up to” Eldritch asked and then followed my gaze to see that I was staring at Christopher. “I don't even want to know” he shook his head and then turned back to me. “So what’s so important you decided to come see me” ……… We spent close to an hour talking about territories and the Ace Coven. According to Eldritch, they'd approached him trying to convince him to declare himself and Vienna Independent and out of m
Christopher's POV How dare he. That Fucking bastard. Who did he think he was? I gulped down my glass. What was he trying to do? Why was I jealous? He meant nothing to me, so why was I jealous? "Another glass, please?" I asked the bartender, and he nodded. I stared in the direction of the back exit. Should I go to him? Why the hell was that thought even in my head? "Here's your drink, Sir." The bartender slid the cocktail towards me, and I took it. If I went there right now what would I see? Would he be Fucking the other guy? I mean he was more handsome than me. Maybe that was who he wanted. Why did I even care? It was not like he was mine anyway. I mean, I was dating Ashley, and I'd already rejected him. It looked like he'd finally made peace with that fact. It was better this way. He's a vampire. His losing interest in me was better for me. Yes, it was better. I turned back to the bar and took a sip of my drink. Was this better? Fuck it who was I kidding. I d
Dante's POV The look on his face when he saw me drink from the guy was heartbreaking. It was as if he was seeing me for the first time and It hurt me. I wanted to run after him after he ran back in, but I knew I had to heal the bite mark and get this guy out of their alley. He was passed out. I'd drank too much in a sort of excitement at the thought of Christopher seeing the real me, and from the look on his face, that wasn't a wise choice. I walked inside with the guy leaning on me and passed him off to one of the security personnel. I rushed to the front to see a car driving off with Christopher in it. I wanted to rush into my car and follow them when Eldritch stopped me. "You need to let him have his space." I stared at him visibly annoyed. "Listen Dante. I've been around humans. They need time to process things. Giving him time to process things is how you get him to loosen up while not ruining your relationship. Today he saw something shocking." "Now, I d
Christopher's POV I woke up late in the afternoon after going back to sleep. I checked Dante's room and he wasn't back. I felt relieved and grateful that we didn't have to deal with me running off and trying to formulate a lie. I checked my phone and saw I'd gotten a text from Dante around 7 am telling me he wouldn't be back till late in the night. He also sent over some documents and asked me to go through them. I needed that. I didn't want to go out because I was honestly scared of being jumped by a vampire or something. This place was running with them or at least people I thought were vampires. The couple that had greeted us in that restaurant and the store that I'd gotten my outfit from were all fishy. Plus even though I pretended not to notice, I saw how people stared at Dante on our walk. Yes, he's a wealthy man but still. Maybe I'm being a little paranoid but I'd rather be safe safe than sorry. I wanted to get out of the country as soon as possible. I needed to be
Dante's POV I was angry. Angrier than I've ever been. I was trying to control myself so I didn't bite him right now. "I..." he started to talk but shut him up. "You're scared of me, disgusted by me. Isn't that right?" "You must be thinking, what a despicable monster" I whispered in his ear. "You must hate yourself for being attracted to me. For cheating on your perfect blond American dream girlfriend." I was angry, but more than that, I was desperate. "Dante I...." he started but I interrupted him "So what now? You leave me and go back to pretending you love that druggie and you go work for your father even though you hate it and then spend your short sad life barely living" I had to call him out. I was being cruel but I had to make him see the bigger picture. I had to make him realize that he didn't want that life. "I'm a monster but I've never drank from you. Do you think this is somehow because of your wit or intellect? I'm a monster, yet I work with Alvin,
Christopher’s POV I pulled away from our kiss and stared at him. My brain was clouded and I couldn’t figure out what I was thinking. All I knew was that I wanted him and I wanted him desperately. He pulled me closer again into a kiss and I melted again. His tongue delved into my mouth with a tight grip on my hair. He nibbled my lips before pulling away and holding my face close to his. “God, the things I want to do to you,” he whispered with his forehead against mine. “Then do it” I whispered back. “you don’t know what you’re asking for” he growled pulling my head backwards “The things I plan on doing to you.” he kissed my neck, and I shivered. Was he going to bite me? I didn’t know how I felt about that. Did I want to get bitten? Not yet, maybe in the future, but for now, I didn’t want that. “Dante, Don’t ….” I started to talk but he interrupted me and kissed me on my lips. “I know. I won’t drink from you till you beg me to. You will cry and plead and beg for my bite” he
Dante's POV I sat across from him on the island as he ate his breakfast. I didn't put a plate for myself. I didn't have to pretend anymore and I could just sit and watch him eat. It was relieving. There was nothing between us anymore and I could show him who I truly was. "So how's your food?" I asked, and he stopped mid-bite and looked up. "It's really good. I can't believe you made all this yourself without eating from it," he said in awe. "Well, I don't mind, plus human food doesn't taste like anything to me," I explained, and he looked shocked. "Wait a minute; so you mean all this while you've been eating with me? It's all been tasteless to you?" he asked, and I nodded. "Human food doesn't have any effect or taste to me. I just eat it to fit in" "That must be so uncomfortable, being forced to eat something that has no taste and adds no value to your life. It's not fair" he seemed so upset for me. I just smiled at him and stood up to move across the island to whe
Christopher's POV Dante did not say a word as he helped me put on my clothes, I opened my mouth to speak but shit it back he too didn't say anything until the driver pulled up in his driveway and the only word he said then was; "Come on" I followed him into the house and he took us to the library. What was wrong? Did I say something wrong? Did I do something wrong? I couldn't help but feel fear. Was Dante going to end our relationship over this? I knew he wasn't irrational but I couldn't help but still feel fear for us. He noticed my panicked expression and reached out to my hand. "Calm down, everything is fine," he smiled at me. "Are you angry?" I asked, looking into his eyes like a needy child, scared I'd ruined things. "Angry? God no! I'm just shocked and happy. I need to hear it again" he looked at me eagerly. "What?" I asked surprised "I need to hear you tell it to me again," he insisted, and I shrugged. "I want you to drink from me" I repea
Dante's POV Something was up and I planned on knowing what and why. He was on me kissing me desperately. Not that I minded made me feel important to him and I liked that. It was a huge ego boost. I let him have his way, enjoying the way he desperately kissed me, fighting for dominance and chasing his pleasure. He thought he'd gotten away with answering my question but I wasn't about to let that happen. In as much as I enjoyed this, I had a feeling I'd enjoy knowing what was on his mind even more. I gripped his hair tightly pulling me away from him. "Wait, what are you doing?" he asked, trying to lean back in to kiss me. I held his head back preventing him from doing that. "Dante" he pouted I raised a brow at him. Did you really think that I'd let it go?" I asked him, and he tried to feign ignorance. "Let what go? I don't know what you're talking about." he leaned back down to kiss me, but I held him back. "You don't know what I'm talking about?" I asked
Christopher's POV I was leaning against the wall, and the room was misty and had flower petals all over. Dante appeared through the mist walking towards me. He pinned me against the wall and wrapped his hand around my neck before leaning down to kiss me. I opened my mouth but couldn't say a word. I didn't even want to talk. He licked up my neck kissing my jaw. He reached his hands into my pants still kissing me. I moaned, and he pulled away, looking at me. He then opened his mouth and let his fangs descend. "I'm hungry. Feed me, baby," he said, and I nodded eagerly. He smiled and slowly bent over my neck. The moment his mouth wrapped around my neck and his fangs pressed against my skin, I jolted up from my sleep to the sound of my alarm ringing. Fuck I turned off the alarm and got out of bed to get dressed. It's been more than a week since the incident at the club and everything was going fine. There had not been any other incident since then. I wa
Dante's POV I pinned him, flipped him on his stomach, and pinned him down on the bed. He looked back and raised a brow at me but didn't say anything. I smirked and spread him, licking him slowly. He squirmed and then relaxed against my mouth. I squeezed him as softly. He was just so soft and pillowy. “Get on with it and stop being a tease” he shoved his ass into my face. I chuckled and pinned his head deep into the bed. “You like it when I tease you, so stay still” I growled into his ass. “Get the lube from my nightstand.” I let go of his head so he could reach for the nightstand. He handed the lube to me. I smeared it on my finger and slowly inserted it onto his ass. He moaned out loud shoving himself against me. I smiled pacing myself as I fingered him slowly. He writhed under me, moaning and begging in pleasure. I planned on making him cum with my fingers first before entering him, but I couldn't hold myself any longer. I squirted more life on m
Christopher's pov Dante didn't say a word until we were in the house with the door shut. "They won't be coming here. They're not stupid enough to do that" he said as he set me down. "I need to make a call" he pulled out his phone and dialed a number in front of me. I was expecting him to maybe move away before making the call but he stood there. He trusted me enough to let me listen in on his conversation "Lucien what the hell is going on with the fucking Ace coven," he growled into his phone "I thought I told you to watch them so why are they stalking me and Christopher?" he sounded extremely angry. "I don't understand what you mean, sire? Is that your answer? "he shouted at the person on the other side. I couldn't help but feel bad for him. "let me make this clear: you figure out what they are doing, and you report immediately back to me," he ordered into the phone and hung up. He pocketed his phone before walking to me. He cupped my face and kissed me.
Dante's POV I pinned Jim against the wall kissing him. He was so beautiful it drove me crazy. Watching him watch me feed was the single most arousing thing I'd ever seen. The way he stared at me, open mouth, desperate. I could hear his heartbeat while drinking from her. It had taken me all I had not to just jump him immediately. I left the woman with Andre. He'd help the woman out. Right now I was more focused on getting home someway so I could ravish him. I pulled away from him and smiled. His eyes were closed and his ups puckered. He opened his eyes and smiled at me. When he did stuff like that, he was pushing my self-control, something I didn't have, something that was already being strained. I kissed him again, sighed, and pulled away. "Let's go home" I pulled him out of the club holding his hand as I walked out to the parking lot. "Should we get in the car or bolt for it?" I asked him as soon as we got to the car. "Well let's just drive home. No need
Christopher's POV Dante linked his fingers through mine pulling me even closer to him. He was visibly tensed even as he led me through the crowd to the booth Andre had prepared for us. I started to sit, but Dante grabbed my hand, stopped me, and pulled me onto his lap. I sat surprised and looked at him with a raised brow. "possessive much?" I grinned at him. "I'd just rather you sit here" he replied but held me right where I was. The whole club was filled with people drinking from other people and even in different stages of undress, having sex with each other. I could see why he'd be clingy. "So are you gonna feed now or what? How does it work?" I asked him but he just placed his finger on my lips. "Shhhh, I'm not feeding yet. I just want to hold you" he whispered in my ear as he kept looking around. Something was wrong. "Why are you being very vigilant?" I asked, and he sighed. "I'm just making sure that someone I don't want around you doesn't isn't in here" h
Dante's POV I guess it was about time he knew about Andre's club, not that I wanted him to know, but I didn't really have a choice if I wanted to take him with me. I knew he'd ask questions about Ashley's being there, but there was no way of hiding it without manipulating the truth, and I'd promised not to do that to him. "Wait, I have just one question. Does she know about vampires?" He asked looking very worried. "No, she doesn't. The club has a more private area for drinking and even if she's been drunk from I'm sure the vampire probably wiped the memory" I explained and he stared at me in shock. "How does she not even notice it," he asked, looking very confused. "Vampire hypnosis can be very strong. I haven't used it on you, but it can make you lose memories, and some of us can even replace the memories with fake ones." I explained pulling him in my arms. I didn't need him having a panic attack. "Every day, I hear a new thing about vampires, and I have to r
Christopher's pov “Here's the contract.” Theo gave it so I could give it a once over. “Of course, you can take it with you and read it so Dante here doesn't drown you with indentured servitude for the rest of your life,” he joked, and I rolled my eyes. “I grew up an only child. I can only do chores for one person, and unfortunately, that person is myself.” I grinned. I read through it and noticed very absurd benefits. At first, I thought it was weird, but when I saw the housing listed as one of the benefits, I knew it was Dante trying to pay for everything. It would have been cute but he was pushing too much. I'd told him I wanted to pay for where I lived but he'd still somehow insisted and still added it to my benefits. I found it annoying. He noticed my face and immediately knew what he'd done wrong. “Wait, no, Sunshine, the housing is part of our contracts, I promise.” I looked at him with a raised brow. “I promise. I didn't do it to be annoying” he
