The pasta was perfectly cooked with just the right amount of bite.I flashed him a thumbs up.He drained the pasta using the saucepot lid to keep the pasta from falling into the sink.

I found two forks among a mess of mismatched silverware in a drawer, and two plates.Leo plated the pasta and drenched it with sauce before sprinkling a thick layer of cheese on top.“She was never the same after my father’s death.He was killed by some humans while out on a mission for Alex.It wasn’t Alex’s fault, but I know my mother blames him for my dad’s death.”

“I’m so sorry.I’m sure Alex will forgive her if she comes back.”

Leo shook his head.“You don’t understand.There’s no turning back after what she’s done.Let’s forget about all that stuff.Vampire business does not exist inside this house.”He grabbed both plates, and we headed back to the sofa to eat.

The pasta was not very flavorful or complex, but the conversation with Leo as we talked about our lives made this one of the best meals I could remember having.His eyes gleamed in the soft candlelight as he talked about the ridiculous vampire customs he had to follow.I entertained him with stories of the stupid things Amanda and I did while we backpacked through Europe.It was so easy to fall into the fantasy that we were just a normal boy and girl having a romantic dinner at home after a long day.My heart ached for a version of our lives that was never going to be.

Since he cooked, I did the dishes as best as I could with the remaining water in the jug.After washing the dishes, I handed them to Leo to dry with a dishtowel.

“Can we stay here for the night?I don’t want to go back there yet.”Everything inside of me screamed that this was a bad idea, but it was just for tonight, I reasoned to myself.Tomorrow, we would forget about all this and go back to normal.

Leo sucked in an unneeded breath.“There’s only one bed.”

“So?”Faking confidence that I didn’t have, I shrugged and tossed my hair over my shoulder.

“Are you sure?Vampire and human relationships rarely end well.”Even though his words were softly spoken, he was crackling with energy like a live wire.Leo reminded me of a mountain lion, ready to pounce for the kill.I gulped as I realized that I was the prey.His body was tense as he held himself back for my sake.

It only made me want him more.

I rolled my eyes.“That hasn’t been a problem for the vampires in your clan.”I placed my hand on top of his.“I can see the humanity in you.You aren’t your mother.”

“Do you know what you’re asking?I won’t be able to stop myself once I’ve had a taste of you.”

“Yep.Got it.Can you shut up and kiss me?”

“I know I shouldn’t, but I can’t resist you.”

Despite my bravado, nothing could prepare me for the moment he wrapped his arms around me and pressed his lips against mine.His soft teasing touches soon became a hungry, demanding caress.My lips parted, his tongue slipping inside as he drank from my mouth like he was dying of thirst.Leo tasted clean and fresh, and soon, his cool flesh warmed with heat from mine.

Reluctantly, I pulled myself away due to my annoying mortal need for oxygen.My heart pounded as my breath came out in harsh pants.An intense wet heat made my core throb in time with the blood rushing through my body.

Again, our lips met.This time, Leo’s hands left no part of me untouched as we made our way to the bedroom.By the time the back of my legs hit the edge of the bed, we were fully unclothed.Never before had I felt so overcome with heat and desire.I was a wild thing, losing myself to the need to be claimed by this man.

“We will take our pleasure from each other in every way.”Leo settled in between my legs which fell open for him automatically.Not a bit of me was ashamed to bare my center to him, begging him to fill me.

Eager to feel him against me, I pressed my hips up against his, grinding my wet core against his hardness.

Leo let out a low growl.His fangs descended and with a rumble of need, he buried his head against my neck.I felt the prick of his fangs against my skin, nipping in a warning or perhaps a promise of more, but he took care not to break my skin.

How sweet.It only made me want him more.My hands wove into his hair, and I tugged him closer to me.What was wrong with me?Something dark part of me wanted him to penetrate me, not just with his cock, but with his fangs as well.

“You’re so sweet,” Leo whispered against my neck before he soothed my sore neck with his mouth and tongue.He pulled my hips to his, rubbing his thick length against my core, coating his cock with my slick juices.He parted my plump lips, but didn’t spear me in the way I needed him to.

“Please,” I whimpered.“Stop teasing me.I need you inside”

His eyes flashed gold as his clawed hands gripped my thighs.A low purr rumbled in his chest and with a grunt, he surged forward and thrust into me.

I cried out as he split me with his cock.He was so big.Leo touched me so deep inside as he rode me that I felt like I was going to pass out.

Nothing could have prepared me for how good it felt to be filled by this supernatural vampire.

“Leo, please.”It was all too much, but as much as I thought I couldn’t take any more of him, my muscles clenched and rippled around his girth.My body knew better and my core was greedy for whatever he gave me.

Leo lifted my legs until my knees were next to my head.

“Yes.That’s it.Take it,” he grunted as he pounded away.
