Salvation - an erotic vampire romance (5 page)

Next to her
her lover moved. She stretched out her hand towards him and put it on his cool, naked chest. Alexander opened his eyes sluggishly. The fire had long since gone out and the room was like ice in the winter temperatures. He put his warm fingers on the cool skin of her forehead. He brushed a strand of hair from her face and gave her a small smile.
She could hear the snowflakes outside as though they were huge rocks gathering higher on the ground. Her eyes saw every pigment in his dark eyes while they looked at each other in silence. She put her stiff, new fingers on his cheek and was surprised at how precisely she could feel the silky, intense feeling of his skin on her fingertips. She felt strong and unbreakable, powerful, invulnerable. She could feel each individual hair on his temples as though it were a thick wire. It felt soft and supple. Somehow both cool and warm.

He took in a deep breath.
“I’m Alex. Alexander,” he said quietly. 
He had never introduced himself. Had never asked her name, although he knew it. Even from before she’d stolen his watch and he’d begun to hunt her.
She stroked the hair on his temples. “You were sent to kill me.”
He closed his eyes for a moment before looking at her again. The darkness in his expression had become more intense. “Yes.”
“Because I’m the last descendent of the traitor. Because with me, my bloodline will finally die.”
“Yes.”
“They threatened you and promised you huge amounts of money. You owe a lot to the higher circles. Even to the council,” she said.
He raised his eyebrows, before nodding. “I needed the money,” he said quietly.
She looked at him for a long time before continuing to speak. She knew how it all went together now. She didn’t know why, but it was so.

“It seems like a big coincidence that a
ll of your investors suddenly came after your debts at the same time, doesn’t it? Or could it not also be that all the money, all the gifts they showered on you over the last few centuries, were just little manipulations? You’re the best vampire warrior. Silent and deadly. Your reputation reaches as far as Asia. And you are independent and free, always completely free of all obligations. Suddenly and completely coincidently they all want you to pay them back for their gifts …and then the royal family told you about me. And so you gave your life as a guarantee and promised my death in return. Why didn’t you do it? Why didn’t you kill me?”
Hundreds of emotions ran over Alexander’s face. The sudden understanding of how it had all happened, anger at the manipulation, hate for the royal family, pain at the betrayal, guilt. That he had just been a victim in this wild game.
“But why did it have to be me?”
“Your death wouldn’t have mattered. You have no friends, no confidants. No-one would miss you if you died. And they had to test how much power I had. They needed the best to be my murderer and that was you. Why didn’t you do it?”
He was silent for a long time before answering. “Because I couldn’t.”
“Why?” Elizabeth asked as she ran her fingernails slowly over his soft scalp. Warmth flooded through her senses as she saw in his eyes that he liked it. For a moment he closed his eyes before the lids opened again and he looked at her seriously.

“I was all ready to do it, but then you changed everything
. You were so brave, so strong. You refused to submit. And yet you came so unresistingly in my arms. You… were a light.” He softly stroked her cheek and neck. The punctures from his bites glowed under his fingers.

“A light, the
warmth in the cold of my life. You trusted me unconditionally and gave yourself to me. There was no shameful hesitation, as though you saw something in me that I didn’t know myself.”

He hesitated slightly and bent down to her to kiss her eyebrows. His feathery lips were like
a summer day on her skin. “And then you, just a small girl, told me that you would save me. Save.” He took a shaky breath and kissed her temple. She welcomed his touch. “Me, a useless demon from Hell. You offered me more than I could have ever believed. How could I decline such a gift? How could I kill the source of my happiness? Never, I simply couldn’t do it. I would rather pull you into the darkness with me than lose you.” His kiss flurried over her cheek. “I’m sorry, but I couldn’t do anything else.”
She smiled at him and pulled him to her lips. “It was your destiny to transform me. We belong together.”
His gaze dove unreservedly into hers. “They will hunt us.”
She smiled at him calmly. “That’s our destiny too.” The voices of the past in her head mixed with his. His breath filled her head exquisitely and made her feel dizzy. “And it’s my destiny to end their rule.”
A smile flitted over his face. An indulgent smile. “You’re crazy.”
“No, I know it. I’m the descendant of the traitor. He was the King of the vampires, my foremother was the last witch. I have accepted my destiny and will fulfil it.”
His expression turned softer. He bent down and kissed her mouth. Heat spread over her face and began to rise in her body. She realised she was aroused again. “How else would I know about the royal family?” she asked, confused about his scepticism. “How else would I know about your debts?” How could I have known about your plan to kill me?”
He didn’t believe her, but it was good that way. She herself wouldn’t have believed it if she hadn’t experienced it. His expression changed, became hotter. His desire for conversation was replaced by a different desire and he lowered his lips to join hers. Exquisite feelings rushed through Elizabeth’s head at the touch. Her fingers buried themselves in his silky hair as she returned his kiss. A moan shook through her body as their tongues met. Flowing arousal surged through her body as she ran her fingers through his hair. Their tongues embraced each other passionately. His taste became hers. Her fingernails left scratches on his neck as he released his mouth from hers and dotted individual kisses on her face.
His lips began wandering further down, breathed her name against her neck. He murmured in awe and arousal as he nuzzled her neck and made her body shudder. His mouth wandered deeper, drew an invisible line of kisses down to her clavicles. His tongue drew a hot, wet circle that flit downwards. All of a sudden his mouth was on her soft nipple. A flick of his tongue sent an electric jolt of heat through her stomach, down to her pussy. A liquid glow seeped from her insides and made her ready for him. She opened her thighs and again her hungry, wet opening met his hot cock. He lifted his pelvis and moved his head to take her other nipple in his mouth. Shudders of lust flowed through her like jolts of electricity.
“Please!” she gasped and wrapped her legs more tightly around him, longing to be filled by him again. “Please fuck me. Fill me up. I want to feel you inside me…please!” she begged him breathlessly. His torture of her nipples stopped. Each movement of his tongue sent another arousing message to her centre. She felt dizzy.
“No…please, fuck me, please!”
He continued mercilessly. She squirmed beneath him, tried to come into contact with the head of his cock. He pulled back from her.
“Fuck me!” she moaned while the frustration in her continued to increase. The heat flowed through her, made her weak and led her along the path to orgasm. She needed him in her now. She wanted his moans, his gasps, as he moved inside her. “Fuck me already!” Her scream released from her dry throat as her arousal threatened to overflow.

Lightning
bolts of lust jolted at light speed from her agonised nipples to her crotch. She contracted in convulsions, but she was empty inside. At the tip of her orgasm, she angrily bared her teeth and buried them snarling into Alexander’s neck. He gasped in surprise at her strength as she began to suck the first drops of sweet blood out of him. Her throat constricted from the pressure of the blood that roared in her mouth. Swallowing, she grabbed him by the shoulders and turned him over until he was lying next to her on the sheets. His arms still held her tightly while she climbed on top of him. Finally he was underneath her. She felt the aroused throbbing of his cock between her thighs. 

But it still wasn’t enough for her. She lowered her pelvis until her wet centre found t
he head of his cock. She sat up straighter and grabbed his shaft beneath her, placing the head of his penis at her opening. Carefully, she lowered herself onto him. Her crotch enveloped him like a hungry mouth. She threw her head into his neck and let herself fall right down on him. His flesh filled her insides unrelentingly and finally she felt complete. Gasping, she took a breath and began to move on top of him. His hands grabbed her hips as she rose up and his penis moved inside her.

A
s she lowered herself onto him again a new, different lust filled her body. “Yes, fuck me!” she moaned as he moved his pelvis in time with hers. There was a red shimmer behind her pupils as she watched his cock separate her labia. Fascinated, she watched as it slowly disappeared inside her. The sensation spread throughout her body. Her opened lips lay gently on his pubic hair. It was an intimate kiss that united them fully.
Again she lifted herself up. As she lowered herself onto him again, Alex roughly grabbed her hips again and pushed her down. Their bodies moved together in unison. Surprised by the passionate slam, her eyes flew open. He laughed a bit as she immediately sped up her movements. The fiery heat inside her was increasing. She moaned quietly and moved faster and faster as the sensation building became more intense. Pain mixed with passion, but the passion prevailed by far. Faster and faster she rose and fell. Her thighs began to burn, the muscles twitched at the sudden exertion that was ever increasing. A new, stark tension began to build inside her. She saw Alex’s hands move from her hips to her labia.
With dark eyes he followed his movements on her flesh as he separated her lips with two fingers and slid them over her clitoris. She gasped as she felt her orgasm build again. She rocked gently on his hips, his cock halted for a moment as her lap hit his flesh and applied pressure. He moaned helplessly beneath her, grabbed her hips again and lifted her up. Again they thrust together as she closed her eyes and the climax of her lust enveloped her body. The orgasm didn’t subside, instead it seemed to grow stronger. Her senses faded. Black filled her being as the feeling went beyond a wave of bearableness and took her into a dark nothing.
Slowly she gathered her senses. Every cell inside her was filled with a cosy warmth. She opened her eyes and felt his firm chest beneath her cheek. All around them bright red sparks were whirling. They burst and split and floated softly to the ground. She lifted her head in surprise and saw Alex’s equally surprised face. As if in a trance he lifted his hand and caught one of the sparks. The red light burst at his touch. “What is that?”

“Magic,” Elizabeth answered.
“Our magic.”
He looked at her in wonder. “It really is your destiny to destroy all vampires, isn’t it?”
“No, not all. Just the royal family.”
He took her face between his hands and kissed her back. There was no haste as he slowly rolled on top of her and again filled her with his cock. She lifted her pelvis up to meet him and closed her eyes indulgently as the wonderful heat again made her melt. They moved together slowly as he again led her along the path of physical fulfilment.
