Page 84 of His True Beloved

That sounded like a great idea. The room smelled like sex, and opening a window or two while we were gone would be for the best. “I’d like that.” I ran my fingers through his hair. The gentle purrs I had once heard in his throat before I changed were now much louder. My hearing had grown so much that it was hard to sleep unless Sebastian put me in a state of utter exhaustion.

Don’t mind that at all.

“Why does your throat make that sound?” I trailed my finger around his neck. “Sounds like a big predatory cat.” I giggled, still falling from the enormous high of intense orgasms. Sebastian sighed, rolling on his back and pulling me to his chest. His claw danced across my back, making me feel like one enormous pile of goo.

“All vampires do it. Many believe when we were first created by the gods, it was a calming mechanism to capture prey. Unbeknownst to them, it turned into more of a loving, calming purr to help relax their children or beloveds. And we can’t control it. It kind of just happens.”

A smile crept on my lips as I continued to listen. “Have I done it? I haven’t paid attention much.” As soon as the words left my lips, I felt the small rumbling in my throat while Sebastian petted my hair with his fingers. It continued to vibrate to my chest while he continued his petting.

“As the days go on, it will become stronger,” he promised, looking into my eyes, and gods, it’s the sexiest thing to have your mate doing it.” His hand reached down to his hard erection and stroked it. “Now, let’s feed you so we can visit your harem of friends and family and let them know you are still alive.”

“I’m not a baby. I can’t feed myself.” I pouted.

“But can you really?” He raised a brow before his claw swiped at his neck. Blood trickled, and my mouth instantly watered.

“So we have to have sex every time I feed?” I whispered to him as we walked down the graveled path. The sun was insanely bright, and my skin felt excessively hot when I first stepped out into the midday sun. Sebastian had it covered, shielding me with an umbrella to hide me in the shade.

Sebastian winked at me while my hand stayed firmly planted in his. “As I said, it’s a very intimate act,” he stated. “Do you really need to have sex?” He bobbed his head back and forth as we walked up to my parent’s home. “No, but I’d rather have my cock spilling inside you than waste it in my pants.”

Gasping, I playfully hit his chest when my mom answered the door. “Chrissy!” Her arms went around me, engulfing me in an enormous hug. Justin came up behind her, doing the same as he held us close like one extensive family.

Yup, more of a dad than the sperm donor. I wonder if he would freak out if I called him Dad?

Leading us inside, Mom had caught me up with everything that had been going on with her change. She had a difficult time and took longer than most humans. Mom didn’t have a harsh bone in her body, and the thought of hurting Justin made her body squirm.

Sebastian scolded Justin for not having such a firm hand with Mom, and I had to continue nudging him to cut it out. Justin was doing the best he could. He loved Mom and knew what a terrible life Mom had before she met the sperm donor and didn’t want to upset her or force her into doing anything she didn’t like.

It was sweet, but I understood Sebastian’s concern.

He still needs to shut up.

I had done well, in my opinion. During the morning stroll outside, not once did I have the urge to eat a small child who got too close to me, nor did I feel like eating some wild animal and pets that played around the lake. I was calm and at ease while I was with my parents until Sebastian said it was time for us to go.

“I don’t wanna go yet,” I whined, leaning my head back on the couch. “I haven’t seen Mom in forever.” Sebastian gave me a hard look and pulled me up with one of his powerful arms off the couch.

“I won’t have you accidentally becoming too hungry when humans are walking around so close,” he warned. “Do I need to fill your mouth with my cock to keep you from being smart?”

Fudge.

“Maybe,” I snickered. A throat cleared from across the room, and the sexual bubble burst. Justin had his arms crossed, an eyebrow raised, but Mom had a unique look entirely. Her eyebrows were wiggling, and slowly patting her hands together like an excited child.

“It’s so nice to see them getting along. I really worried for her. She needed a firm hand that I could never give her when she was a child.” Justin dropped his arms, looking at his beloved like she had lost her mind.

“Think maybe you can talk to me that way,” she whispered, still staring at Sebastian and me. “I don’t think I’d mind it one bit when you say it.” Fluttering her lashes, her hand reached behind Justin and squeezed his ass.

“Mom!” I said incredulously. My face had turned redder than a stop sign listening to her talk about her sex life, especially with Justin thinking of him more like a dad.

Sebastian had his lip in a firm line, his eyes twinkling with laughter until he pulled my arm and led me out the door. My parents followed, seeing us out until Suron and Rowan appeared in the doorway, ready to knock.

My fingers grasped Sebastian’s tightly because the look of unease on Rowan’s face and Sauron’s apprehension had the once-happy high of my week fade drastically. Both stepped away from the door to let us outside.

“We should speak in private about this,” Rowan muttered under his breath. “But don’t believe the small living room would be comfortable. Come with me.” Mom looked back into the house, questioning why there wouldn’t be enough room because there were plenty of seats.

“Vampires as old as Rowan and Sebastian need space. Their aura would stifle all of us.” Justin led Mom with his hand on her lower back out of the house. Mom nodded silently as we were led out of the house and near the hardly populated lake. Children played as we walked by, and seeing Suron, they waved excitedly only to go to the newly created beach to play in the sand and swim.

Guess no more tanning on a beach somewhere for a while.
