“I’m just a vampire, and not some dead meat walking, so please don’t stake me.”

I smiled up at him. “All right. I won’t.”

“I appreciate that.” He pinched my nipple again, and I hissed with the sharp cocktail of pain and pleasure the move poured straight into my blood.

“So. What do you like?”

“You,” he said without taking his eyes off me while his hands roamed along my body, barely brushing my cock and balls.

“What I meant was… you know.”

“I do. I don’t particularly care whether I’m your top or bottom, but I don’t think I want to spend all that time on preparation right about now.”

I relaxed into him when he bent his head to kiss me, relieved on some level. Penetrative sex with a guy was nice -- it felt really good -- but I had to agree on the prep time being a bother sometimes. Well, a lot of the times. The only thing I really missed about it since my breakup was the weight of a guy pinning me down and just…going. I really liked that, at least sometimes, and when I knew they’d stop if I told them to.

I didn’t want Auris to stop at all, not when he spread his knees to straddle me, then rocked against me with his cock, which was just as hard as mine. I hadn’t even been sure he could get hard, what with him only taking care of me, but I was selfishly glad immortality didn’t mean you had to forsake a nice erection.

We kissed like two teenagers high on hormones. Well, I kissed like that. He was actually doing a proficient job of it, using skill rather than uncoordinated eagerness. I didn’t get the feeling that he cared or minded how sloppy I was, and I felt rewarded when he shifted and reached between us to grab both our cocks together. He gave a squeeze once, then pulled our mouths apart so he could spit in his hand.

Instead of bending back to my mouth, he stayed like that, looking down at me underneath him as he started pumping our cocks.

I whimpered and jacked my hips, but to little effect. I was pinned under him.

“You’ll have to wait a little longer, Ethan.”

I pushed my head back against the pillow, squirmed as much as I was able as he stroked us. Then I stilled. Well, I wasn’t exactly still. I gave up moving. I let him take charge, forced my fingers to uncurl, and looked up at him.

His silver eyes shimmered, and he smiled down at me as if he liked this, me submitting to his pace, his control.

It didn’t mean he worked us faster, because he didn’t, and when I finally came, I felt so sensitive all over that a tender touch might have made me come. The stroke of his hand made me explode. And I made a mess. I didn’t care. I watched him watch me, enthralled, fascinated. That he didn’t look all human made it more enchanting.

He let go of me, just before touch became too much, but continued jacking himself off. If I hadn’t been blissed out, I would have been annoyed by the fact that he went at this with considerably more enthusiasm than he had before. On the other hand, watching Auris was like watching a skilled stage performer. Not that he was performing. It was the way he was beautiful but odd, thrilling but dangerous, and underneath all that, firm where it mattered and with a jaw line to die for.

Tiny electric sparks chased down my spine when he came, his cum streaking my chest. I was perfectly fine with messy sex, always had been. This was delicious. He mixed our combined juices with his hands feeling along my ribs and belly.

“Come here,” I whispered.

He obeyed, lying next to me and brushing a soft kiss on my lips.

“You looked stunning.”

“Youlooked stunning. Will you lie on top of me? A little bit?”

He lifted his eyebrows. “If you want that.”

I blissed out even more when he rolled half his body weight on top of me. I had no idea why, but this was so calming. I had a weighted blanket at home, but no blanket could ever compete with a real person, or… I giggled.

“Vampire,” I mumbled.

“Are you all right, Ethan?”

“I had vampire sex.”

“You did.”

“Every teenage girl and a good number of teenage boys will be forever jealous of me now. Or worship me as their leader.”

“Ethan, this is serious. You are not to start a vampire sex cult.”
