Page 41 of Make Me Bleed

I’ve thought about that. About his size. I wondered if that might be something that would worry him. I had no doubt in my mind that we would work, but hearing him say the same?

All my life, I’ve been treated like a delicate toy. A petite vampire, born to be sweet and docile in person and a hunter behind closed doors. Constantly underestimated despite the fact that I’m a supe with supernatural strength and speed.

But not by Hank.

Hank sees me. He sees all of me.

A strange look flashes across his face. He shifts impossibly closer to me, inhaling deeply as his nostrils flare.

I cock my head. “What?”

The look turns to an expression of marvel. “No more fear,” he drawls. “Onlyarousal.”

Yeah, well, no denying that.

I know he doesn’t want to push me. I know he says he’s willing to wait. But, suddenly, I’m not ready for this charged moment to end.

I scoot closer. “I have a confession to make.”

“You can tell me anything, Lise.”

“I’m not a virgin. However, there is something I’ve never done before,” I murmur against his lips. “Something I was saving for just my mate.”

His eyelids turn heavy. “You have him at your mercy.”

“You know how you just kissed my mouth?”

“Mm.”

“Think of doing that, just on my pussy.”

Poor Hank. I think I surprised him with the coarse language. And while I present as lady-like, there’s no room for that in the bedroom. If he wants to mate, he’s going fuck me, and he’ll use to cock to do it.

Just like how it’s my pussy that’s currently weeping for him…

He jolts, then shudders. “Really?”

“Mm-hmm. It was too intimate. I was afraid they would take advantage and bite me.”

On my vagina, or my thigh… it wouldn’t matter. They would just have to make me bleed with their teeth and taste the blood for it to count as a blood exchange. I might let them have my body, but my blood? That was saved for my future beloved.

To be honest, I wouldn’t even kiss some of my lovers for fear that they might slip and nick me with a fang. There were times I was reckless and I regretted the close calls after, but I’ve been careful.

With Hank, I don’t want to be.

With Hank, I don’thaveto be.

His body stiffens beneath me. “I wouldn’t do it. Bite you, I mean. If you honored me with such a gift, you could be sure that I’d never betray your trust like that, darlin’. Not sayin’ you have to… You’re mine. I just want you to know that I’m willin’ to do whatever it takes ‘til you understand that I’myours.”

He’s such a sweet gentleman. I expected him to respond like that, even if he’s basically vibrating in place with need.

I shift my hips. I’ve got to be soaking through my panties at this point. There’s no way he can’t tell. He already picked up on my arousal, and it’s only increased as I think about what it would be like to have Hank between my thighs.

“I know you are,” I tell him. “And as my beloved, whenever you’re ready, I want you to know that I’d like you to be the only one to do that to me. I mean, if you want to.”

No pressure.

He swipes the back of his hand over his mouth. “How ‘bout now?”
