Shadows of Love
Souls Embrace
She woke in his arms and once more longed for more from the days. She'd turned
sixteen the week before and felt it was time to take their relationship to the
next level. She knew Draven struggled with his desires. He'd remained faithful
to her even though she'd told him often that she'd understand if he needed to
find someone to help with his needs.
She laughed out loud at the memory of his face when she'd told him to go find a
vampire to fuck. His expression was priceless. He'd stammered and stuttered for
an hour about how he loved her and wouldn't betray her. She grew impatient and
irritated with him and finally just let go of her anger.
“Then fuck me already, Dusk! This is ridiculous. I want you and I can tell every
night you want me. Do you think I'm stupid. I know what an erection feels like
when it's pressed up against my back. Aren't you fucking sick and tired of not
getting pussy?”
Draven stood staring at her with his mouth hanging open for a long time before
bursting out laughing.
“Such pretty words coming from a little girl's mouth. Where'd you learn to talk
like that, Sunshine?”
“Little girl?” Sun was pissed at his referring to her as such all the time.
“Does this look like a little girl to you?” she asked as her shirt fell to the
floor. She stood there in her lacy bra and watched his eyes grow dark with lust
as she unzipped her shorts and let them slide down her legs.
At a loss for words, Draven fought against the natural instinct to pick her up
and fuck her like she wanted. It took everything he had to not take her right
then. The only thing that stopped him was that he wanted it to be special, he
wanted her to remember her first time with happiness.
She crossed the distance between them and pressed her body against his. Looking
up at him with desire burning in her gaze, her voice barely above a whisper.
“Please, Dusk. I need you. I want you.”
He put his hands on Sun's shoulders and held her at arm's length. “Not like
this, Sunshine.”
Pouting, Sun pushed away from him, gathered her clothes and stormed out of the
room, slamming the door behind her. She left the house knowing that he couldn't
follow her for at least another twenty minutes. Her anger kept her attention and
she found herself at the park without knowing how she'd gotten there. Sitting on
a swing in the deserted park she let the tears she'd been fighting fall.
She cursed herself for being so stupid. She wanted Draven so badly that she'd
embarrassed herself. Her heart was broken at his rejection, her body still on
fire from his touch. She knew he wanted her, she could feel it. She just
couldn't figure out what stopped him from taking what she offered.
Draven paced the house growling as he waited for the sun to set. His Sunshine
was out there alone and hurting. He could feel her pain through their bond. He
could feel how desperately she wanted to bond fully with him and how badly she
wanted to be with him in every way. He wanted it just as badly but was unsure if
making love to and bonding with a sixteen year old human was wise.
He knew that she wasn't like any other human he'd met. Someday he'd turn her and
they'd spend eternity together but now, she was human and still considered a
child in the eyes of the law. Her father could step in at anytime and have her
removed from him and sent home. He feared this most of all. He wanted to protect
her more than anything. But was not sleeping with her protecting her or just
prolonging the inevitable. They both knew that sooner or later they'd have to
take their relationship to the next level. They'd slept in the same bed for
months. They'd done everything except make love. Perhaps now was the time.
Perhaps he just needed to give in to both of their desires.
Instructing his nest mate Karen to set things up, Draven tore out of the house
as soon as the sun set to find Sun. He would fix this and make them both happy
if it meant his final death. He opened himself to the bond and let the pull lead
him straight to her.
He found her still sitting on the swing, her face streaked with tears and picked
her up, bringing her lips to his. He kissed her deeply, his hands roaming her
body memorizing every curve. Growling into the kiss, he held her tight.
“Let's go home, Sunshine.”
Draven sped them home and set her on her feet at the front door. Smiling down at
her he opened the door and led her in.
Sun gasped at the table set for a romantic dinner, noticing how quiet the house
was. Turning back to Draven she looked up at him in surprise.
“When did you do this?” she asked.
He pulled her seat out and slid her up to the table. Grinning he served her
dinner and sat across from her, watching her eat.
“I had Karen help, love. I needed to find you.” He let his gaze travel to her
lips, his fangs extending at the thought of what was to come.
Taking a bite of her dinner, Sun tilted her head and stared at Draven. “What's
going on, Dusk?”
Getting up he pulled her from her chair and kissed her hard. Lifting her off of
her feet, he wrapped her legs around his waist and walked to the bedroom, never
breaking the kiss. Opening the door he stepped inside and set her on her feet
again, letting her take in the candles and roses that filled the room and
covered the bed.
“Dusk?” she asked hesitantly.
“Shh, Sunshine,” he put a finger to her lips and leaned down
to lick the throbbing vein in her neck.
Her hands fumbled with the buttons on his shirt until she became frustrated and
ripped it open. She pressed her palms to his chest as his fangs scraped along
the most sensitive spot on her neck. Her moans caused him to pull back and look
at her seriously.
“Sunshine, you know that if we exchange blood once more, you're fully bonded to
me. Are you sure this is what you want?”
“More than anything, Dusk.” Her eyes were dark with desire, her body aching for
his touch.
Draven growled low and bit gently into her neck, the warmth of her blood
eliciting a groan from him. Her nails digging into his sides reminding him that
she wasn't just prey. This was his Sunshine and he was determined to make this
night special for her.
Retracting fangs from her he sat down on the bed and pulled her into his lap.
Biting into his own wrist he offered it to her and watched as she drank his
blood with vigor. She kept her eyes on his while drinking and he could feel
himself growing hard.
In one swift movement he had her lying beneath him on the bed with her shirt
lying on the floor. Bending down he tore her bra from her body with his fangs.
Taking a taut nipple into his mouth he sucked and licked gently.
Her moans filled the room as he moved to the other breast. His hand slid down
her stomach and into the waistband of her shorts and down into her panties. He
stroked her clit softly at first until he felt the dampness that came with her
arousal.
Crushing his lips to hers he slid a finger into her, thrusting in and out,
gently increasing her wetness before adding another finger. Her hips arched up
to take his fingers deep as her nails scratched down his back.
Sun brought a leg up and frantically tore at the button of her shorts, pushing
them down her hips and kicking them off, as Draven's lips trailed cold kisses
down her body. She cried out when his tongue flicked against her most intimate
of spots.
Draven drove her to the brink of ecstasy over and over countless times before
claiming her body fully. Their blood mixed and the bond grew stronger. Sun
belonged to Draven completely for the first time.
The lovers spent the night exploring each other, learning all there was to know
about the other. As the sun rose Dusk held his Sunshine in his arms. They would
spend their first day bonded making love and sleeping. They shared their dreams
for their future and the life they wished to live together. Little did they know
that fate would soon intervene and change their future forever.
