When she turned to me, the distraught look in her eyes broke my heart. “How? How can you ever keep us safe from this?” she asked in a low voice, careful not to wake our sleeping son. She reached over and placed her hand atop his. She was scared and obviously needed to reassure herself of his safety.
It tore my heart out, seeing her like this. “I’ll take you and Jase somewhere safe, secluded, where no one will find you.”
“Without you?”
“Hardly.”
“What are you talking about, Lance?” Leila released Jase’s hand and turned her full attention toward me. “We can never escape this.” She took a deep breath and turned her attention out the window. “Of course, I knew what I was getting myself into when I agreed to be with you. And it was okay when it was just us. Not just o

“Here is your suite, Mr. Steel.” The grand living room was luxuriously furnished with a beige couch and matching chairs, along with glass end tables with gold trim and a matching coffee table. Lavish furnishings greeted us at every turn.“Thank you. This is beautiful,” I said, offering him a discreet and sizable tip. “Thanks for getting us in on such short notice.”He shook his head, declining the tip. “It is indeed my pleasure, Mr. Steel. And if there is anything that you require or that I can do to make your stay more pleasant, please let me know.”“Thank you. I will.”After he left, we walked into the bedroom and a canopy bed took center stage, draped in beige silk and a matching silk bedspread with fine white linen sheets. I laid Jase down and covered him up in the crib that was placed discreetly against the wall and pulled the covers snuggly around him, tucking him in.Sliding glass d

“Leila, stop,” I said, surprised at her lusty craving, but she didn’t stop. I could have pulled away from her easily, but I didn’t. She couldn’t kill me, after all, but I would have a terrible headache if she took too much before I could power up again. “Leila, stop!” I repeated, and this time, I broke her hold.She looked at me, mortified as her eyes flew open wide. “I’m sorry … I don’t know what came over me …”I smiled, suspecting why. “No worries, my love.”“Oh, my God!” she said, not realizing what was happening. “What have I done? Lance, are you all right?”I laughed. “Yes, love. Of course. You cannot kill me from overfeeding the way that I can kill you.”“I don’t know what came over me … unless …” she looked at me as her eyes flew open wide again. “You don’t think …

Soon, Leila walked into the room, towel-drying her hair, wearing only her robe, which accented her every curve. “What, may I ask, are you men up to?”“Dada fly!” Jase said, having understood every word.Leila just about dropped her towel. “Did he just say what I think he said?”I laughed. “Yes, my dear, your son is a genius!”Leila sat down on the chair next to mine and watched Jase as I held him up above my head and swayed him back and forth, “flying”. “You mean our son is a genius!” she said. “Is it normal for him to start talking now?”“Well, look at him,” I said, enjoying the moment with our son. “He’s the equivalent of an eighteen-month-old child. The growth rate of dhampiers is extraordinary. Remember: he will be fully grown in ten years. I wouldn’t doubt it if he’s talking in complete sentences and the equivalent of a four-

“Mama, Mama, Mama!” Jase cooed happily as he ran across the sand to Leila.She had fallen asleep under the shade of the palm trees. She was smiling in her sleep as beautiful as an angel, so beautiful that I hated to wake her. I could watch her sleep all day.“Leila, love,” I cooed gently near her ear. Slowly, she opened her eyes. “Time to go.”She sat up with a start. “Already?” Then, she looked around quickly and saw that the sun was setting over the bay. “Oh, no! One minute I was watching you and Jase play in the sand, and that’s all I remember.”“Leila, I need to start letting you have more time to rest,” I said, slipping Jase’s shirt over his head. “Let’s go back home tomorrow. You need to see Amy.”Leila shook her head. “Let’s take Jase to Disneyland Paris first. I don’t want to spoil your time.”I laughed. &ldqu

I silenced her response when I crushed my lips down onto hers and pushed two fingers inside her pussy again as her juices poured onto my hand. Her breath quickened and she spread her legs, allowing me access, as I carefully pulled in and out of her, slowly at first, then quicker until I developed a steady rhythm. She closed her eyes and melted in my arms. I reached higher inside and found her G-spot. I curled my fingers over it, rubbing it sensually as I stroked.“God, that feels great!” she said as she moved to my rhythm. “I don’t know what you’re doing, but don’t stop!”I covered her lips with my own and she moaned into my mouth. I loved watching her submit to me like this, watching her come undone in my arms, and my dick liked it, too. I was so hard that I could have used it to drive nails.Her thrusts against my hand quickened and I covered her lips with mine as she moaned once more, thrusting her hips, moving faster

“John, can you fire up the jet today?” True to my word, I was taking my family to Paris for a few days, and then back to Vegas after that.“I can have it ready within the hour,” John said. “Will that suffice?”“Perfect,” I said, “and thank you, John.”“My pleasure, Mr. Steel,” he said. “And where are we flying today?”“Paris.” I snapped my phone shut and looked over at Leila. “We’re leaving in an hour.” I looked over at the crib where Jase was still sleeping.“Okay, let me feed Jase then I’ll be ready.” Leila immediately grabbed two blood bags from the mini fridge and popped them into the microwave, while I packed our clothes and gathered our things. I loved taking care of my family. I looked over and Leila was rocking our son, feeding him a blood bag. She took a sip from a glass containing a substance that could

1113 AD, England“There you are, you lazy son of a bitch!” a strong male voice said, waking me from my slumber in the barn. I enjoyed lying in the hay as a cool breeze flowed through the barn this early morning, but the air would quickly become sultry, as summer was fast approaching.I slowly opened my eyes to my best friend, Lord Raif, Knight of England. I rubbed my then brown eyes and quickly looked around, realizing where I was.“What in God’s name do you think you are doing, passing out in my barn like this?” he bellowed in his thick British accent. He was only a few years older than myself, but already in charge of all the knights in the kingdom.“You were the one who brought me here,” I said, remembering the tankards of ale that we had downed the night before. “Sorry. I must have passed out in your barn, you bastard.”“Hey, now! Leave my poor old mother out of

Raif grabbed a drumstick and took a huge bite. “So, Sir Lance, tell me of this castle that King Henry has awarded you,” he smirked, taking another huge bite.I followed his lead and stabbed a slice of beef with my knife and began to eat. The food smelled delicious, and my mouth watered just looking at it. Selestra and their maid, Matilda, were great cooks. I sank my teeth into the succulent beef and moaned as its juices filled my mouth. “‘Tis in Preston Village …”“On the shore?” Raif interrupted, smirking again as he took another huge bite from the chicken leg. Then, his eyes narrowed. “What will you do if war breaks out and you are needed in London?”I swallowed the beef that I was chewing. “‘Tis only a half day’s ride on horseback. I can be at the castle in no time.” Then, one corner of my lips curled into a half smile. “Surly you can hold off any invaders until I arriv

I couldn’t take his abuse anymore, and I left him and took your children with me.”“It’s a lie!”“Lance, wait!” I held my hand up, stopping her. “What if she’s telling the truth?” Then I turned to Selestra. “So, give us the children. Once they’re safe, then we’ll talk.”Selestra nodded. “Agreed.” She motioned for Jase and Addie to go to us, and they both rushed toward me and hugged me.“She’s alone,” Addie whispered, keeping her voice so low only I could hear.I nodded once. “Jase, Sirena, go home with Raven. we’ll talk when we get there.”Jase looked between us and said, “Be safe.”Lance pulled them both in for a quick hug, making it look good.

Leila“I spoke with Kellen,” Lance said, quickly crossing the room. “He’s called an emergency and is locking down the castle as we speak. He’s also agreed to stay with Sirena and Emma, too.” He let out a deep breath, placing his hands on his hips. “It may be overkill, but I don’t care. Sirena needs all the protection we can give her.”A moment later, there was a knock on the door.Lance held up his hand to me and quickly crossed the room. He looked through the peephole, opened the door, and extended his hand to Emma. “Thanks for this. I’m so sorry we had to phone you on such short notice.”“Not a problem. I’m glad to help.” She walked in dressed in a pair of jeans, a floral shirt, and boots, similar to what I was wearing. I was sure she had come prepared to fight, too.“Thank you so much for this.” I pulled her in for a quick hug. “After Kellen locks down the castle, he’ll come stay with you.”Emma nodded. “That’s fine.” She pointed down the hallway. “Is Sirena in the family room?”I

Leila“What do you mean ‘they’re missing?’” Lance demanded, taking a step closer.Raven took a deep breath, the most flustered I’d ever seen her. “After dinner, they were dismissed and were in their common rooms. One of the other students said that Jase got a call... from you.” Her head snapped up toward me. “So, he stepped out into the hallway with Addie and never came back in.”“From me?” I asked in disbelief, shaking my head. “It wasn’t me.”“Well, the student said your number popped up on his phone.” Raven shook her head. “I’m so sorry—”“Who was the student?” I asked.Raven let out a deep breath. “Kian Medine. The Medine family is important in the witch community and very trustworthy.”I nodded. “Can you do a locator spell on him like you did last time?”“That’s what I planned to do.” She looked into Lance’s eyes. “I knew you would want to be present.”Lance nodded. “Thank you.” He gritted his teeth. “If Raif and Selestra have them, there will be no place they can hide.

LeilaI nodded. “I know you will.” I rose to my feet and pulled her in for a hug. “My husband and I will discuss this and will get back to you. Thank you for coming.”“Would you like to meet our daughter before you go?” Lance asked.Emma nodded. “Yes, please.” Her eyes brightened. It was clear that she loved children.I nodded. Whether or not we hired her, what harm could it do to introduce Emma to Sirena? “Right this way.”I walked down the hallway, and Emma walked beside me as Lance followed behind. When we entered the family room, Sirena was playing Chess alone, switching seats at each turn. It was the funniest thing I’d ever seen. Then guilt filled my chest for not having anyone her age to occupy her. “Sirena, honey, I’d like you to meet someone.”Sirena looked up and smiled, her game forgotten as she crossed the room purposefully toward Emma and thrust out her hand. “Hello. My name is Sirena. What’s your name?”“My name is Emma.” She tilted her head to the side, smiling. So, you

As in ‘the bastard son of a king?’”“Lance!” I scoffed, unable to believe what he had just said.“Please, pardon me, both of you.” Lance looked over at me and smiled. “The word was more commonly used in our time. Please, forgive me.”I nodded cautiously. “It’s okay.”But Emma smiled, unaffected. “It’s okay. I used to hear it all the time years ago. But not many people know the meaning or connotation today.”Lance nodded. “So, who was your father?”She let out a deep breath. “My father was King Henry I, and I am one of his illegitimate children.”My eyes nearly bugged out of my head, but miraculously, I maintained my composure. “Could you explain that to us? I mean, how did you come to be in our coven?”She nodded. “I was born the twenty-sixth of June, i

LeilaLance let out a deep breath. “After hearing everything, the Council agreed with my reasoning. They couldn’t believe all the threats Raif had leveled against you and the children, and they agreed that if he defeated me, he would also take over the Council, the vampire world, and the rest of the supernatural creatures. When I told them he wanted to be king, they agreed that we can’t let that happen.”“Well, let’s eat, and then you can take a shower before Emma gets here.” I made a sandwich out of a biscuit, an egg, and a slice of bacon.Lance laughed. “What are you doing?”“I used to do this all the time when I was human.” I picked it up and took a bite. “You should try it! It’s good!”“Can I have some?” Sirena asked, looking at my biscuit sandwich with curiosity.“Sure!” I slid her onto my lap and made her a sandwich with the other biscuit, egg, and bacon. Lance got up and made another one for me and warmed up a bag of blood for her.“Here you go!” I handed her the biscuit sandw

He pulled back a moment later and gave me one last sweet kiss. Then he slid out of bed and slipped into his sleeping shorts and a white T-shirt.“Ahh,” I moaned, reaching for him. “Come back to bed.”He chuckled, one corner of his lips curling into a sexy smile. “You don’t know how tempting that is.”

It was clear that she was not making her decision lightly. “Yay.”“So, it’s unanimous. We will stand and fight.

LanceLeila and I went through several applicants for Sirena’s nanny but didn’t find anyone suitable. The successful applicant needed to be a vampire with fighting skills, capable of protecting Sirena during a crisis. He or she would also have to have good nanny and child nurturing skills. Not an easy combination to find in one person.“So, did you have any luck finding a nanny for Sirena?” A smile spread across Kellen’s face as we headed toward the main conference room for the meeting with the Supernatural Council, consisting of the heads of all the covens and packs in Las Vegas.I scoffed. “No. Not yet. It’s proving to be as difficult as it was to find a nanny and protector for Jase.”Kellen nodded, stopping just outside the door. “I think I may have a solution for you.”“Oh?” My eyebrows shot up.“I know a young woman that reminds me a lot of Addie, but she was a little older when she was turned.”“How old was she?”“Eighteen,” he replied. “I think Addie was sixteen when she was tu
