Chapter 15
Leandro
By the time I had Anais back in the suite I was so angry I knew I needed to let go of her and let some of my anger out. I knew Anais was a vampire hunter, but she was also my enthralled, and as far as the vampire world was concerned that should have made her my problem and my problem only.
On top of that, I was Brethren and the nephew of one of the most powerful and well-respected Brethren in the world.
Or at least that was how it was supposed to be.
If I wanted to stick my cock in a vampire hunter while all the vampires nearby looked on, they should have been cheering me on for making my enemy my plaything.
Not that I saw her that way. She was far much more than a piece of meat to pound. But God, did I want to take her anyway. And they didn’t need to know the depth of my feelings for her.
I paced back and forth in the suite, considering what I would have to do next. We needed to know who this leader was and if he was shutting Anais out because he knew she had killed Ludis after trying the same thing with me, or if he knew more and knew I was a problem as well.
He hadn’t asked me to leave the lounge, just Anais, which implied the former. That would also suggest this leader wasn’t confident he could handle her yet. At least, I hoped that was the case.
As I paced some more I heard Anais sigh.
I glanced at her, but only frowned. I couldn’t think about her right now.
It would be too tempting to shove her down on the couch and relieve my frustration by ruthlessly taking her.
And I wasn’t sure I trusted myself to be calm and controlled enough right now.
She stepped in front of me and took my hands in hers. “Stop, please.”
I gulped, already feeling my desire well in me. This close again I caught the scent of her own lingering arousal. I had been about to plunge my cock into her while in the lounge. And I hadn’t intended to be gentle. She should never have been told to leave.
“This is not how my kind are supposed to behave.” I growled, the anger rising in me.
She leaned in a little closer and brought a hand up to my face. “I know. And I understand you being angry, but we have to let it go for now.”
“We’ve failed to make any progress.” The feel of her soft skin on my face was enough to make my cock harden all over again.
“We’ve not failed,” she replied, ignoring the effect she was having on me.
Or choosing to. “Tess and Petros are in there and no one thought twice about them. We drew all the attention. And we know that there’s just one vampire who is coming after me.
It’s not the whole ship, just one vampire and his minions. ”
I nodded, knowing she was being a lot more sensible than me and she was right. As long as Petros came through for us and kept Tess safe, they should be able to investigate more. They would have seen the vampires reacting to Anais being there and wanting her to leave.
“What about Naomi and Alan?” I asked.
She smiled, her eyes lighting up. “They’ll be several hours still, and everyone is sleeping here tonight, where they’ll be safe.”
“I won’t be able to sleep until everyone is back,” I replied.
Her grin grew wider. “I wasn’t going to suggest sleep.”
A moan escaped my lips as I thought about all I wanted to do to her and what she seemed to be offering. I had to be sure before I let my passion loose, however. “Are you offering me control of you tonight?”
“If you promise me one thing.” She met my gaze, stepping a little closer. I slipped my arms around her body, pulling her close, making sure she could feel what she did to me.
“Anything.”
“Don’t be gentle. I need anything but gentle.”
I let out a growl. “I didn’t plan to be,” I managed to say before I lifted her up and took her into the bedroom. I practically tore her dress off her, pulling it down as swiftly as I could. She let out a squeal but I stifled it as I kissed her again.
Within seconds I had the rest of her clothes off. I heard more fabric tear but I didn’t care. She’d given me permission not to be gentle and I was beyond caring about anything but having my way with her. If nothing else went right today, I would at least take us both to heaven.
As soon as she was naked I pushed her down onto the bed. I left her there only long enough to reach into my suitcase to pull out something to restrain her with. She would be mine.
Although her eyes went wide as I pulled out the leather cuffs, she let me take her limbs, one at a time, and bind them.
I was more gentle and took my time over this, knowing that having her body splayed out at my mercy needed to be a position she was comfortable in and that wouldn’t cause her any long-term damage.
I was a vampire, and far stronger than her. She might be a hunter, in an amazing physical condition, and beautiful in every way I could desire, but I had to take care of her physically. I could stop being gentle when I was pounding into her and wanting her to feel every inch of my cock.
She grew wetter as I took my time restraining her, making it harder and harder for me to take the time to do this properly.
I wanted her more than I could put into words.
I’d dreamed every night since the last time I had been in her of being able to make her mine and now I was finally going to get to claim her once more.
I could barely think as I finished tying her down, her legs forced open for me, her slightly nervous gaze locked on me.
She looked so wide-eyed and innocent that I could have almost believed she was, if I hadn’t remembered how much she had just begged me to fuck her without restraint and how many times I had already played with her body.
“I’m going to enjoy your body now. You’re mine, every last bit of you. My little vampire hunter to toy with. I’m going to make you cum, but not for your pleasure, for mine. Right now I own you.”
Her eyes widened and her lips parted slightly, but she didn’t tell me she’d changed her mind, or even wriggle. Reaching into my bag again, I found the blindfold. Without another word, I slipped it onto her and made sure she couldn’t see.
Immediately I pinched both her nipples, twisting them painfully. She mewled and whimpered until I let go.
“Who do you belong to?” I asked her, wondering what she’d say.
She sucked in a breath and didn’t reply so I twisted her nipples again, this time pinching them a little tighter and lifting slightly so they began to support her body weight as well.
She wriggled a little and let out the most delightful mewl that I almost didn’t want to stop.
Her body would know I owned it, even if she didn’t want to admit it yet.
“Who do you belong to?” I repeated when I finally let her go. I was such a sadist, my cock throbbing with desire.
Soon. I was going to fuck her soon. But not before I made her beg.
She gasped for air a few times before licking her lips and trying to form words. “You. I belong to you.”
“Much better,” I said before taking her nipples into my mouth and gently sucking and licking them, soothing them and pleasuring her all at the same time.
After a few more seconds, I reached up for her throat, trailing my fingers across her skin.
She was dripping wet with desire now and I was having to fight my entire being to keep controlled, but I wanted this to last. I needed her to know I could always be controlled with her.
I needed to know I was still capable of it.
She startled as I touched her neck, the contact light, but I soon wrapped my whole hand around her throat and gave her the gentlest squeeze I could manage. It was a reminder that I could do as I pleased with her and she was only so safe.
I ran my hands over her whole body, exploring and taking my time.
Every bit of her was perfect and I covered her in kisses as I went, wanting her to know how much I valued her as well.
This wasn’t just about sating my desire.
This was also about showing her that she meant a lot. That it was her and her alone I wanted.
She was worth every second longer I took to make her feel special. To let her know I would care for her and please her as well. I wanted to make her mine in every way, and I took care of anything I claimed.
She moaned as I kissed her breasts again, taking her nipples into my mouth and being as gentle with them now as I was rough earlier. She arched her back as I continued to kiss down her stomach.
As I moved lower and lower I shifted my hands to hold onto her hips. I wanted to taste her and toy with her. Despite my intentions to wait, I was so hard it was difficult to concentrate. I wouldn’t be able to deny myself too much longer.
Eager to hear her moaning in ecstasy, I found her clit with my mouth. Swirling my tongue, I pinned her down with my hands. She shuddered, the direct contact almost too intense for her.
“Oh God,” she whimpered. “It’s too much. Oh God.”
I ignored her, knowing that she was going to have to learn to handle this level of pleasure.
I was going to make her cum so hard she forgot her name.
She moaned and groaned some more, still trying to writhe, but the combination of my hands on her hips and the restraints on every limb prevented her from being able to do anything but take what I dished out.
Soon she was shuddering in the middle of an orgasm, but I didn’t stop, only easing the pressure enough not to hurt her but keep her rolling high.
Her desperate keening for relief only grew until a second orgasm broke over her, following quickly after the first. This time I eased even more, knowing gentler was better, each orgasm increasing her sensitivity to another.
By the time I’d taken her to heaven twice I was so desperate for her myself, I didn’t wait any longer.
Her education at my hands could take time.
We had a whole cruise for me to show her body what it was capable of.
I slid up the bed as she panted, kissing her skin, tasting her pleasure and bringing myself up to her entrance.
I plunged into her without much warning. She was tight but wet enough that I took her with ease. Now I was finally deep inside her, I let myself go and enjoyed her. It was everything I needed, her whole body mine to claim.
She moaned again as I ground against her clit and hit every good spot inside her. Despite focusing more on my enjoyment and every bit of pleasure I could now take from her, I could feel her reacting to having me deep.
With every thrust she flexed her hips, helping me get deeper, taking me into her and showing me she wanted this. I kept going, holding back my pleasure until I could feel her pulsing around me, tightening. She tilted her head back and I leaned my mouth in toward her throat.
Her blood was pulsing through it, just underneath me.
My hunger for her grew in another way, my mouth salivating.
Not only was her body the only one I had dreamed of fucking, but her blood was the most heavenly to drink.
I wanted her in that way as well, but I knew she hadn’t offered it to me.
Not like this. Not when I didn’t have to.
I nuzzled at her as I slowed, fighting that desire, but struggling.
“You can drink,” she whispered as she tilted her head and gave me even better access.
“Are you sure?” I replied, almost stilling within her in surprise at her offer.
“Just leave me enough to function and fight if I need to. You’ll be stronger and better able to fight if you have had some as well.”
She wasn’t wrong. I’d not eaten in a few days and I’d had to be careful about it, finding someone who knew of our kind and didn’t mind being paid to give some of their blood. It never tasted as good as it did in the rush of the moment like now, and no one had ever satisfied me the way Anais did.
I leaned in toward her neck again, still hesitating. Her scent filled my head, reminding me of the taste, and I knew I would be able to take what I wanted.
I picked up the pace as I drove my manhood deep into her again, and she responded, taking as much pleasure from this as I was. I waited until I was close to my peak before I opened my mouth and took her neck between my teeth. Again she tilted her head slightly, making it easy for me.
There was nothing more vulnerable than this for her. Knowing I could drink every last drop of her blood now if I wanted to, I fucked her even harder and finally bit down. She orgasmed, the mix of what I was doing to her and the euphoria from being fed on combining to tip her over again.
I knew it would hurt her temporarily before the pleasure kicked in, but she didn’t even flinch, giving herself to me so willingly it wasn’t long before I joined her in heaven. Drinking deeply, I took my strength from her, until I knew I needed to stop so I wouldn’t weaken her too much.
Finally sated in every way, I let go of her and checked she was all right. She was panting, but she smiled. I kissed her, pressing my lips against hers a couple of times before I untied her body.
She leaned into me as soon as I’d freed her, every bit of her still just as perfect now I was sated.
“You’re beautiful,” I whispered into her ear as I pulled her into my arms and held her close. “I am going to cherish you as long as you let me. You’re safe here.”
