“Of course. As long as we’re all clear that I’ve claimed him.”

“It’s only slightly obvious.” Soren grins. “Only a madman would attempt to intervene.”

“Alright then, we have a plan. Please go rest and enjoy yourselves. Paradiso is available.”

In just a few hours, I get to see the beautiful mortal again, and maybe this time I’ll lure those delightful moans from his lips in person.

CHAPTER 13

Geordi

“Now remember, we’re here to work.”

Enyo rolls his eyes as we approach the front door of Elias’s home. “Yeah, yeah.”

“I’m serious. It’s very overwhelming in there.”

He rubs his hands together. “I can’t wait to see it.”

I ring the bell, not at all surprised when Benicio answers it just seconds later.

He nods at me after looking Enyo over. “Please come in,” he says.

“Thank you.”

We walk past him and wait in the foyer. Before I can ask where to find Elias, he appears at the top of the grand staircase. He smiles and my stomach flutters with memories of my earlier jack-off session.

Work. This is work.

“Hello, Geordi.” Elias glides down the stairs as if carried on a cloud. “And who is this?”

“My research partner, Enyo.”

“What an interesting name. Welcome.”

Enyo stares at Elias with a ridiculous smile on his face. I imagine it’s what a child would look like seeing Santa Claus.I nudge him with my arm, and he looks at me with a dazed expression.

“Oh. Hi.”

Elias chuckles. “You said you wanted to test the vaccine again?”

“Yeah. I want to give it to Enyo and see if he has a similar reaction to it.”

“I see. Where would you like your experiment to take place?”

“Your sitting room is fine.”

“I want to see the sex club,” Enyo whispers, even though we both know the vampire can hear us.

“I’m happy to provide a tour,” Elias says with a sexy smile.

“Can we handle the business part first please?” I ask.

“Whatever you desire.”

Enyo’s breath hitches. “Damn. Does he always talk like that?”

“Yes.”
