Chapter 1
Her mouth was feeling drier than the Sahara Desert and it finally brought her out of the deep sleep she was in!! As she slowly opened her eyes; they struggled for a moment to focus…once they did, she saw a man sitting on the bed next to her.
“Aaahhh, I see your finally awake little one? I’m so sorry I wasn’t able to rescue you sooner my dear; mmmmmhhhh you must be so thirsty…ah-ah-ah be still I’ll get it.” The mysterious man said as he reached over to a nearby table, grabbing a pitcher & a glass. Filling the glass with water, he set the pitcher down. He slowly reached under her shoulders with his right hand and arm; slowly lifting she started to whimper a bit as he settled into the bed next to her. She rested her head on his chest as he carefully brought the glass to her lips. She was trying to hold the glass, but her hands were too shaky…she would have dumped the water if he wasn’t also holding the glass. Instantly she looked up at him as though she were a pet that had just had an accident!!
“Oh, calm down little one calm down, you’re not in trouble. Here let me help you, slowly little one drink slowly or you’ll choke.” He whispered in her left ear as she began guzzling the water; suddenly she started coughing and gagging!!Immediately he set the glass down, took her fully in his arms and started gently patting her back. He could feel her chest heaving, heard her drawing in ragged breaths & softly stroked her hair. “That’s it little one breathe just breathe…now shall we try again?” He sighed as he reached for the glass. Once again bringing it to her lips she started drinking slowly this time…he smiled taking the glass away and saw that it was three quarters gone.
“T-t-thank you, p-pp-lease c-c-can I have some more water?” Desire asked as she slowly reached up with her right hand to her neck; feeling the multiple & raw wounds she started crying as she nuzzled her head into his chest. He telekinetically brought over the water pitcher refilled her glass and then set the pitcher back down. Bringing the glass back to her lips; he kissed her cheek as she drank…once again taking away the glass Nathan saw it was half empty this time. “Y-y-you’re like him, aren’t you?”
“Yes darling I’m vampire however I can assure you I am nothing like Xander!!! I should have fucking slaughtered him the nanosecond he even thought about you!!” Nathan responded his eyes narrowing, his grip on the glass increasing until both of them heard cracking sounds & he looked down and quickly stopped. Carefully levitating the glass back to the table, he made sure to set it down gently so as not to break it. “I’m sorry I hope I haven’t frightened you little one…any more than you already are.”
“N-n-no I-I’m not afraid; but uuuuummmm w-w-what are you going to do me? A-a-am I going to be your blood-bag or are you going to make me your pet? That’s what he said…I was going to be his food, and once he had me trained, I was going to be his pet!!” Desire stammered burying her face in his chest as she burst into tears. She felt his hand gently stroking her hair and back. She could feel his shirt becoming wet and tried unsuccessfully to wipe the tears away with her right hand. He gently reached with his left hand and held hers.
“Oh-oh no little one no you will neither be food nor a pet!! That fucking rat bastard coward I-I mmmhhh don’t worry little one if I were to ever feed upon you it would never be without your consent.” He replied taking her into his arms and hugging her tightly as she cried. That fucking rat bastard I should have done worse than impaling and ripping his head off!! Still, it was quite satisfying slamming my entire arm through his chest!! Oh, my sweet little one, one day I do plan to turn you but that won’t be anytime soon and I plan on courting or is it dating now? Whichever it is that shall happen first.
“Mmmhhh I-I’m I’m so sleepy but I don’t wanna remember anything if I fall asleep I-I uuuhhh.” She wouldn’t be able to finish her statement as she fell unconscious; he smiled and kissed her forehead.
“Hhhhmmm sleep well my little one, I’ll be right here when you wake. Don’t worry about any nightmares, I’ll protect you from them and everything else.” Nathan whispered in her ear and then kissed her forehead. Several hours later she again slowly opened her eyes; she found herself gazing at Nathan’s peacefully slumbering face.
I don’t wanna wake him but I have to go to the bathroom! I’ll just gently move his arms so I can get up. She thought to herself slowly unwrapping herself from his embrace; she slowly inched to the edge of the bed…her feet were about to touch the ground when she felt his hand on her wrist.
“Hhhhmmmm little one where are you going?” Nathan asked while he gently held her wrist and started pulling her back into his embrace; he smiled as he wrapped her in his arms again.
“I-I need to go to the bathroom; please I’m not going to run I just have to go to the bathroom.” She replied as he swiftly scooped her up and swung his legs over the edge of the bed; they touched the floor and he carried her into a palatal bathroom. He gently set her down near the toilet and turned away; she lifted the lid and slowly sat down. After utilizing and wiping herself Desire attempted to stand so she could flush the toilet; only to become dizzy, lightheaded and she started falling!! Nathan caught her immediately; he leaned down slightly and she flushed the toilet. Rising back up he turned walked over to the sink and gently set her down; still keeping his arms wrapped around her waist so she wouldn’t fall again. Desire washed her hands and then turned the water off. Once again, scooping her up into his arms he turned and she dried her hands on the towel; then kissing her on the top of her head Nathan returned to the bedroom and the bed.
“Now, go back to sleep my dear. That’s it little one close your eyes and have sweet dreams.” Nathan said reaching down and pulling the covers up around them; he gently kissed her right cheek and nuzzled her nose. As he watched her eyes slowly close, he smiled and drew her back into his embrace. She’s so warm and soft mmmhhh I’m going to enjoy discovering her body…but for now I’m satisfied with cuddling!! Several more hours passed and he slowly opened his eyes smiling as he saw her chest gently rising and falling; she slowly turned and nuzzled her head deep into his chest wrapping her arms around him. Oh, I hate to leave her but I must do my duty and inform the council of Xander’s humph untimely demise. He thought to himself as he gently pulled her arms from around him
“Mmmmmhhhhh N-Nathan w-w-where are you going?” Desire asked as she grabbed onto his wrist her eyes fluttering open a little. He smiled and sat back down on the bed stroking her hair with his right hand.
“Go back to sleep my love I’ll be back; I must inform the council of what’s happened with Xander.” Nathan responded as he slowly pulled his left wrist out from her hands. He kissed her on the forehead and slowly rose from the bed watching her slowly close her eyes and he turned into mist and exited through a minuet crack in the wall. Returning to his human form in midair he took to the sky soaring through the clouds until he arrived at a palatal mansion. He landed in front of the massive door that he easily pushed open
