Vampires Don't Give Love Bites Part Thirty One
Lily's mother leaned forward, her eyes holding a mixture of pride and sorrow. "There's more," she said, her voice dropping to a near whisper. "While vampires are technically immortal and quite difficult to kill, Lily and I... well, we’re almost impossible to kill."The words sent a shiver down Lily's spine. She'd always known she was different, but hearing it stated so plainly made her feel suddenly alien, even in her own skin. She watched Caspian's face carefully, searching for any sign of fear or revulsion."It's one of the curses of our bloodline," her mother continued, her fingers tracing the rim of her whiskey glass. "There's a strong chance she would outlive you, Caspian."Lily's breath caught in her throat. She hadn't allowed herself to think that far ahead, to imagine a future where she might have to watch Caspian fade away while she remained eternally youthful. The weight of potential loss settled heavily on her chest.Her mother's face fell, a shadow of old pain crossing her

"There are other things too," she continued, her voice husky. "We can…""Astral projection," her mother interjected smoothly, her tone matter-of-fact. "The ability to separate our consciousness from our physical bodies and travel great distances."Lily blinked, momentarily thrown off balance. She'd almost forgotten that particular skill. "Right," she nodded, shooting her mother a grateful look. "And we can manipulate energy fields, create protective barriers…""And heal," her mother added softly. "Both ourselves and others, to an extent."The weight of these revelations hung heavy in the air, thick with unspoken implications. Lily could feel Caspian's gaze on her, intense and searching. She wondered what he was thinking, whether these truths would change how he saw her. The vulnerability of the moment was almost overwhelming, a stark contrast to her usual guarded demeanor. Lily's mother leaned forward, her eyes glinting with a mixture of pride and concern. "These abilities are extrao

"The next topic," her mother continued, her voice dropping to a near whisper, "is Gideon."Lily's breath caught in her throat at the mention of that name. Images flashed through her mind: piercing green eyes, a relentless pursuit, the constant fear of being hunted. She unconsciously leaned closer to Caspian, seeking comfort in his solid presence."Who is this Gideon? Other than a hunter?" Caspian asked, his arm tightening protectively around Lily.Lily closed her eyes, steeling herself. When she opened them, her gaze met her mother's, a silent communication passing between them. It was time to reveal another dangerous piece of her past, one that could change everything. Lily took a deep breath, the scent of old books and lingering magic filling her lungs. She turned to face Caspian, her fingers tracing nervous patterns on the worn leather of the armchair."Gideon Thorne," she began, her voice low and laced with a mix of regret and apprehension, "is a vampire I was... involved with wh

Lily's mother pursed her lips, her brow furrowing with concern. The room seemed to darken, shadows creeping in at the edges as she spoke the words Lily had been dreading to hear:"If he's here, we can assume he wants to force Lily into a bond again."A chill ran down Lily's spine, icy tendrils of fear gripping her heart. The warmth of Caspian's arms around her suddenly felt like a fragile shield against the looming threat. She closed her eyes, inhaling his comforting scent of sandalwood and spice, trying to ground herself in the present moment."No," Lily whispered, her voice barely audible. "I won't let him."But even as the words left her lips, doubt gnawed at her. Memories of Gideon's relentless pursuit flooded her mind - his obsessive determination, the predatory glint in his eyes. She shuddered, remembering how close he'd come to succeeding last time.Caspian's grip tightened protectively. "I won't let him near you," he growled, a dangerous edge to his voice. Lily's mother sighe

Lily's mother cleared her throat softly, drawing their attention back to her. Her eyes, so like Lily's own, held a mixture of concern and resignation as she spoke."From what Lily has told me," she began, her voice measured and careful, "I believe it is very likely you two are destined mates."The words hung in the air, heavy with implication. Lily felt her breath catch in her throat, her heart thundering against her ribcage. She glanced at Caspian, searching his face for a reaction.His expression was inscrutable, but his hand tightened almost imperceptibly around hers. Lily could feel the tension radiating off him in waves, could almost taste the conflicting emotions swirling beneath his carefully controlled exterior."Destined mates," Caspian repeated, his voice low and thoughtful. "I've heard whispers of such bonds, but I never..." He trailed off, his gaze locked with Lily's.Her mother's voice cut through her jumbled thoughts. "It's rare, but not unheard of. It’s been centuries s

"Well, well," her mother said, her eyes twinkling. "It seems you've let go of your reservations, haven't you, dear?"Heat rushed to Lily's cheeks as she nodded, acutely aware of Caspian's hand still resting on her knee. She glanced at him, noticing the confusion etched on his handsome features."What do you mean?" Caspian asked, his brow furrowed.Lily's mother settled into her armchair, her gaze moving between the two of them. "The reason Lily smelled so strongly of you earlier, Caspian, isn't just because you marked her. You've claimed her, instinctively, when you stopped fighting the bond."Lily felt a tremor run through Caspian's body, his grip on her knee tightening ever so slightly. She placed her hand over his, offering silent reassurance."And now," her mother continued, her voice soft but intent, "Lily has stopped fighting it too. She's claimed you in return."The air in the room seemed to thicken, charged with an electric tension that made Lily's skin prickle. She turned to

The door clicked shut, leaving Lily and Caspian alone in the softly lit living room. Shadows danced across the walls, cast by flickering candles that filled the air with the heady scent of jasmine and vanilla. Lily exhaled slowly, her shoulders relaxing as she turned to face Caspian."I have to admit," she said, her voice barely above a whisper, "I did not expect my mother to take my relationship with a vampire this well." A wry smile played at the corners of her lips.Caspian's silver eyes gleamed in the dim light as he moved closer, his movements fluid and predatory. "Are you disappointed?" he asked, a hint of amusement in his smooth voice. "Did you hope for more drama?"Lily felt a shiver run down her spine as he approached, her skin tingling with awareness. She shook her head, red curls bouncing. "No, not disappointed. Just... surprised." Her gaze fell to his lips, then quickly darted away. "I've spent so long being cautious, always looking over my shoulder. It's strange to have s

The water lapped gently around them, creating a soothing rhythm that seemed to sync with their heartbeats. Caspian's fingers traced lazy patterns on her skin, sending shivers down her spine despite the warmth of the bath."Is that so?" he whispered, his lips brushing against her ear. "And here I thought you were just using me as a comfortable backrest."Lily chuckled, the sound rich and genuine. She tilted her head back, resting it on his shoulder to look up at him. "Well, you are rather comfortable. But I suppose the company isn't half bad either."Her emerald eyes locked with his, a spark of mischief dancing in their depths. The tension between them crackled, electric and alive, but there was no rush, no urgency. For once, Lily felt no need to be on guard, to analyze every word and gesture."Tell me something, Caspian," she said softly, her fingers intertwining with his beneath the water. "In all your years, have you ever felt... at peace like this?"The question hung in the air, we

The question hung in the air, heavy with implication. Lily felt Caspian's cool hand squeeze her waist gently, grounding her as she considered her response. She inhaled deeply, the scent of herbs and magic still lingering in the workshop."I... I started to," Lily admitted, her green eyes flickering with an inner fire as she met her mother's gaze. "But then I realised I didn't need it. The words were there, in my mind, but it was like... like the magic knew what I wanted before I even spoke."She paused, trying to find the right words to describe the sensation. "It was as if the power was an extension of myself, responding to my will rather than any verbal command."Caspian's thumb traced small circles on her hip, a soothing gesture as Lily grappled with the implications of what she'd done. She could feel the weight

Lily's brow furrowed in concentration, sweat beading on her forehead as she focused all her energy on containing the pulsing orb. She pictured a barrier around it, much like the one she used to have around her fire. In her mind's eye, she saw gossamer threads of magic weaving together, forming a shimmering cocoon."I can do this," she muttered to herself, her fingers trembling slightly as she raised her hands towards the sphere. "I have to do this."The air crackled with energy, making the hairs on the back of her neck stand up. Lily could feel the power pushing against her will, testing her limits. It was exhilarating and terrifying all at once."Lily," Caspian's voice came from behind her, a steadying presence. "You've got this. I believe in you."His words washed over

The scent of sage and sandalwood lingered in the air as Lily stepped into her workshop, her senses heightened by the potent magic thrumming through her veins. Shelves lined with glittering crystals and ancient tomes cast dancing shadows on the walls, illuminated by the soft glow of candlelight. Her gaze flicked to Caspian as he settled into a worn leather armchair in the corner, his silver eyes glinting with curiosity."Are you certain about this, dear?" Lily’s mum asked, her voice tinged with concern.Lily nodded, her throat tight. "We need to know what we're dealing with," she replied, her fingers absently tracing the outline of the fang marks on her neck. The memory of Caspian's bite sent a shiver down her spine, equal parts thrill and trepidation.As they began drawing the intricate chalk circle, Lily's th

Lily's mind raced with possibilities. A bridge between witches and vampires. An end to centuries of mistrust and violence. It was intoxicating, terrifying, and absolutely irresistible."What do you think it would take?" she asked, leaning forward, her green eyes alight with that familiar fire of curiosity. "To bring about true peace, I mean."Her mother sighed, running a hand through her hair. "That's the million-dollar question, isn't it? It won't just be about you two. There are centuries of prejudice to overcome, power structures that benefit from the current divide..."Lily nodded, her mind already spinning with plans and possibilities. "But we have something no one else has had before," she said, her voice growing stronger with each word. "We have proof that it's possible. That witches and vampires can no

Caspian's cool fingers tightened around hers, a silent anchor in the storm of revelation. Lily leaned into his touch, drawing comfort from the contrast of temperatures."It's difficult to explain," she continued, her voice gaining strength. "But with Caspian, I don't need the barriers. His very nature acts as a counterbalance to my fire. For the first time in my life, I feel truly in control. The fire is still there, still powerful, but it's... tamed. Focused."A small, incredulous laugh escaped her. "I don't feel like I could accidentally set the world ablaze anymore. It's exhilarating and terrifying all at once."Caspian cleared his throat, his silver eyes gleaming with an intensity that made Lily's breath catch. When he spoke, his voice was low and rich, filled with wonder.

Caspian's hand covered hers, stilling her nervous movements. "We're in this together," he reminded her, his silver eyes meeting hers with an intensity that made her breath catch.Lily nodded, drawing strength from his unwavering presence. As they stepped out of the car, she noticed the scent of flowers, fresh flowers.She looked towards the rose bushes, and gasped. The once-withered roses her mother had been lamenting for weeks were now in full bloom, their vibrant petals unfurled in a spectacular display of crimson and pink."How...?" Lily whispered, reaching out to brush her fingers against a silky petal. The flower seemed to lean into her touch, as if drawn to the newfound energy thrumming beneath her skin.Lily's mind raced with the implications. If their power could

His silver eyes searched hers, filled with concern and a hint of fear.She couldn't find her voice, couldn't articulate the storm of emotions swirling within her. What kind of power had they unleashed?Caspian bent down, scooping up her phone. "Adeline? It’s Caspian," he said, his voice smooth and controlled despite the tension in his shoulders. "Lily's okay, just a bit shocked. We'll see you for dinner tonight, and we can talk about everything then."There was a pause, and Lily could just make out her mother's voice, though not her words. Caspian's expression shifted, a mix of surprise and resignation crossing his features."If that was you two," he relayed, meeting Li

She blinked, disoriented, as the memories of the previous night came flooding back."Caspian! Open up!" Damien's voice thundered from the hallway.Lily's heart raced as she scrambled to make herself presentable. "What's going on?" she whispered, her voice still thick with sleep.Caspian groaned, running a hand through his disheveled dark hair. "Nothing good, I'm sure," he muttered, his silver eyes flashing with annoyance.As Lily tugged on Caspian's oversized shirt, she couldn't help but breathe in his scent - a intoxicating mix of sandalwood and something distinctly otherworldly.

Their bodies moved together in perfect synchronicity, each thrust and roll of hips building the tension between them. Lily could feel the coil of pleasure tightening low in her belly, intertwined with the wild magic that coursed through her veins."Caspian," she gasped, her nails raking down his chest. "I'm so close. Like a storm about to break."He nodded, his own breathing ragged. "Let go, Lily. I'll catch you. I’ll always catch you."Lily's world exploded into a kaleidoscope of sensation. The fire within her surged, mingling with the cool rush of Caspian's power. She cried out his name, her voice raw with emotion and pleasure."Caspian!"Beneath her, Caspian's body went rigid, his grip on her hips tightening as he fo
