Page 56 of Hunting My Vampire

Perhaps it was the stone keeping me awake but the moment I closed my eyes, I thought of Jack and how he had come to my rescue at the car. I’d wanted to hold him, I remembered that too. It was like the weeks we’d been apart had simply faded into insignificance. None of what I’d said mattered, I realized. I still wanted to be with him no matter how much danger it put me in. I wanted to be with him even if it put me in mortal danger. It took all of my will power not to call him.

In the middle of the night, I felt hot and sweaty and got up, even though it was cold outside. The pendant was so warm it was almost burning my skin. I took it off and saw that it appeared to be glowing. I went into the bathroom and splashed cold water on my face and chest. I saw the old man’s face and heard his voice in my ear again, telling me how my work was not done.

What had he meant?

I stood by the window and looked out over the garden. I longed for Jack and closed my eyes, thinking about him.

When I opened my eyes, he stood in the garden, looking at my bedroom window. We just stood like that for a moment, looking at each other. Then I opened my window, and he was inside, right next to me, in an instant.

We didn’t speak.

Words were not necessary. I melted into him or he melted into me. I am not sure who moved first. His mouth was on mine, and I kissed him back, my arms holding him tightly, pulling him closer. We fell onto the bed and he held my face, tenderly, kissing my eyes, my cheeks, my ears. I felt desire coursing through my veins, an almost painful ache between my legs as my sexual want awakened. He was kissing my neck and my collarbone when suddenly, he jerked back.

“What… the…” he pulled away from me, his hands to his mouth, touching his lips. He jumped off the bed and stumbled back.

“Jack?” I sat up, uncertainly.

“What… Your skin… something burned me?”

I looked over at my dresser where the pendant was lying. Any proof I had wanted about its potency, I had just received.

I got up and walked over to him, touched his mouth with my fingers, where I could see a light red swelling on his lips. Even though I had washed my skin some residue must have remained.

“What is it?” he asked me.

“Have you heard of occillite?” I asked him.

There was a sharp intake of breath. “You have occillite? Where? Do you know how dangerous that is for me?”

“I’m sorry, I touched it,” I said, kissing his lips tenderly, as if to make it better. I could feel him softening to my touch, giving in.

“But… what..” he drew back, and I said, “Shh…let’s talk later…” I pulled my T-shirt back on and felt between his legs,the powerful erection throbbed in my hands. He was groaning as I caressed it with my hands, guiding it into my mouth. He forgot all about the occillite as I licked and sucked his cock. His erection growing even bigger as I teased and played with him. Finally, he couldn’t take it anymore and I actually giggled as he pushed me onto the bed, opening my legs and entering me, sliding into me with a shudder of delight.

I was deliciously wet and wanting him with every fiber of my being. His hand slid in under my top but I playfully took his hands and held them. I saw his eyes widen in surprise as I came up and turned him onto his back. I sat on top of him, taking more of him even deeper inside of me and I felt myself riding the waves of pleasure that were becoming bigger and stronger. I held his arms to keep him from touching me as I tightened my pelvic muscles, tensing and releasing my hold on his cock. Then I leaned back and felt the forces of our sexual energy take over my body as we rocked together riding the current that was coursing through us. I moved up and down, rocking back and forth, moaning loudly as each thrust took me closer to heaven and I could taste the joy that was coming.

I wanted to hold back, to tease him some more but I found myself unable to control my body at this point. Even if I’d wanted to, I was not able to pull away. I wanted him so much and when I rocked back his body came up with me so that we were almost in a seated position.

I had never had sex in this position before and it felt wonderful. We were face to face, kissing each other, our tongues probing deeper while our legs were intertwined and he thrust once more. We climaxed together in an incredible burst of ecstasy that elicited a cry from me that was piercingly loud, again, ripping through the night air.

We collapsed in each other’s arms and he held me tightly.

My skin was covered in sweat and I felt utterly exhausted and unbelievably happy.

Chapter 24

Jack

Afterwards we lay in bed, Kaya snuggled up against my chest.

I was stroking her hair and even though I didn’t want to spoil the mood, I had to know. Few words struck the fear of death into the soul of a vampire but the mention of occillite was one of them.

It was the only substance known to be lethal to vampires, so much so that even a few micrograms was enough to kill them. It was extremely rare and very expensive, and I knew that almost every powerful human authority had some special occillite artifact, whether it was a knife with a blade of the black crystal or a sword of solid occillite, as found in the East.

I knew that our community had sent out hunters to find all the sources and destroy them and had thought it had become extinct.

Now, Kaya told me she had found a pure occillite stone that had belonged to her mother. When I heard that it had been around her neck, activating, I grew cold with apprehension. I had probably come into contact with the faintest charge of it remaining on her skin and I had lesions on my face. No wonder she wouldn’t let me take off her T-shirt while we were having sex. But didn’t she realize how exposure to such a weapon endangered me?

“I need it Jack, there is a powerful vampire after me and I can’t be sure than you will be there to protect me.”
