The Vampire's Kiss (Other World Series Book 1) by Ramona Gray

I’m there.  It’s so pretty, Val.  It has white
flowers and the sun is always shining.  The grass is soft and no one can find
me there.”
    She sighed.  “At least it used to be that
way.”
    He turned her head toward him.  Her eyes
were soft and faraway and he stroked her cheek with his thumb.  “What do you
mean?”
    She raised her gaze to his.  “You found
me.  I was in my safe place and you came to me.  We were naked and making love
in the flowers.  But then I realized that I really was going to go mad because
I couldn’t get away from you anymore.  You had found me.”
    Tears were beginning to slide down her
cheeks and he brushed them away lightly.  “I’m sorry, little dove.”
    She dropped her head onto her raised
knees.  “Can we stop talking about this now?  I don’t like to talk about it. 
And I’d like to go back to the house and get some sleep.”
    “Soon.”  He murmured.
    He was lying.  Abigail would sleep but not
in the house.  She would stay here with him, wrapped in his arms until dawn and
only then would he send her away.
    He bent his head and placed soft, wet
kisses across the scars on her back.  She stiffened and tried to pull away but
he held her firmly as he continued to caress her back with his mouth.
    “Val.”  She moaned lightly and he turned
her until she was straddling his lap.  He stared down at her pale body and she
flushed and tried to cover herself with her arms.
    “Don’t do that.” He frowned and pulled her
arms away.  “I would see all of you.”
    She flushed even brighter.  “You think I’m
ugly.”
    “I don’t.” He insisted.  “I’m sorry I told
you that.  It isn’t true.”
    He grasped her chin and made her look at
him.  “I think you’re beautiful, Abigail.  The most beautiful woman I’ve ever
seen.  If I didn’t, do you think I would be here with you now, about to make
you mine again?”
    She swallowed hard.  “You’re doing this
only because you want to feed from me.”
    “No.”  He brushed his lips against hers. 
“I could seduce and feed from you without taking your body.  I want you,
Abigail.”
    He took her hand and pressed it against his
throbbing erection as he used his other hand to cup her breast, rubbing his
thumb over her hard nipple.
    “Do you see what you do to me?  What I do
to you?  We were meant for each other.”
    She shook her head.  “No.  It’s because
you’ve bitten me.  Once we’ve reached Karna I’ll never see you again and my
lust will fade.”
    He kissed her, his tongue probing between
her lips and tracing her smooth teeth, before he sucked gently on her lower
lip.  “No, little dove.  It is more than that.  When we reach Karna I will not
abandon you.  I will take care of you, provide for you, and in return you will
pleasure me with your body.”
    “Val, I can’t – “
    He plucked at her nipple and she moaned
under her breath. 
    “You belong to me, little dove.  Let me
take care of you.”
    She closed her eyes.  It was pointless to
resist him.  She needed someone to take care of her.  She was weak and afraid,
and she knew she wouldn’t last long in this world without someone like Val to watch
out for her.
    He smiled at her wordless surrender and
pulled her closer until his cock was brushing against her wet center.  She
moaned again and her fingers dug into the hard flesh of his shoulders when he
lifted one heavy breast and ran his tongue over her nipple.
    He lifted her up to settle her down onto
his cock and she had time to marvel at his strength before his cock was sliding
into her.  He pulled her even closer, urging her to wrap her legs around his
waist.
    They kissed hotly, their tongues sucking
and sliding against each other’s as she rolled her hips against him.  He cupped
her large ass, his fingers digging into her flesh, and he lifted her easily up
and down on his cock.  She gasped his name as he placed his mouth on her
shoulder.  His fangs slipped into the
