Mitchell chuckled. "You talk in your sleep."
"I have visions." Seryn sounded embarrassed.
"Of sucking my blood?" That was an interesting vision, considering Mitchell wouldn't allow it.
Seryn sighed.
Mitchell let him go when Seryn sat on the bed.
Seryn was naked still. Mitchell had been too preoccupied with caring for Seryn and managing his pain to think about much else. Since he managed both problems, he definitely noticed Seryn's body.
Seryn sniffed the air and then smiled in a knowing way. "I have an excellent sense of smell."
"As in, you can smell my blood? Or the guy down the hall is showering?" Because either way, it was weird and impressive all at the same time.
"I meant I can smell your arousal."
Mitchell raised his eyebrows. "You're hot. I'm hard as a rock."
Seryn chuckled. It was the sweetest sound, mostly because he hadn't laughed very often. Not that they'd had a lot to feel good about up to that point. "Can I help you with it?"
"As much as I would love for you to, I'm not up for the challenge." Despite what his dick wanted, the rest of his bodyprotested the very thought of moving, much less spending the energy needed for sex.
Seryn frowned. "You're in pain."
It was as if it was the first time he realized it.
"Yeah."
"Should I get the doctor?"
A much better question was where the hell was the doctor. "Where are they?"
Seryn pointed to the wall. "In the room next door."
Seryn averted his gaze, sighing before meeting Mitchell's gaze again. "I need blood."
"You said as much." What did that mean, exactly? "As a vampire, do you need it to live?"
"Yeah. It's like needing food and water. But I don't need it as much as other vampires. I'm used to feeding once or twice a month. Others need it once or twice a week." Seryn expression was sheepish. His big brown eyes practically begged for him to help.
"When you were sleeping, you said you wanted it from me." He couldn't hide his apprehension.
"I'm sorry if that makes you uncomfortable."
"It's not like you bit me and just took it." Mitchell wasn't too worried about being Seryn's victim. Seryn seemed to have incredible control regardless of the situation.
Seryn's eyes glowed red. "I would never do that to you."
"I wasn't implying that you would."
Seryn sighed and got off the bed. His naked ass made Mitchell wish to be well again. "I'll get it from somewhere else."
"What do you mean?" Did that mean he'd prey on someone or were there people who gave it up for money? And did that mean Seryn had to bite someone else? Like he'd get in all close to their body and suck it from their neck?
"I don't know what's confusing about what I've said." Seryn pulled on a pair of underwear that looked new. His ass was amazing, in and out of them. Mitchell wanted to kiss each cheek and then open him up so he could see his hole.
Sex might be off the table, but fantasizing about it wasn't.
