Phoenix's Heart (6 page)

She walked over to the bed and unzipped
her skirt; she pulled it to her waist and lay down. She glanced at Phoenix; he was standing about ten feet away. “Will I get to see my baby?” She turned her head to the side when she felt Max sit down.

He smiled down at her, “Yes on this.” He held up the tablet, and then waved
the wand. “I will roll this around on your abdomen. I will add a little lubrication, so I can move it around.” He pulled a little bottle out of his shirt pocket. “Are you ready sweetheart?” She nodded and pulled up her shirt to the edge of her bra. “This might be a little cold.” She felt the cool liquid drip onto her abdomen. He started pressing the wand against her; he looked at the tablet and his eyebrows creased together. “Well, that is unusual,” Max said and Jennifer looked at him.

“What?” Her voice was
shaking when she asked.

“You are having tw
ins, a boy and girl.” Max smiled down at her and turned the tablet so she could see. She saw a black and white image. “Baby girl.” He said and she smiled, that is her baby. He moved the wand. “And baby boy.”

“But aren't
twins very uncommon?” She heard Phoenix ask.

Max kept his eye on
Jennifer. “They are, that is why you can't be one hundred percent human.” He looked over at Phoenix and her heart pounded in her ears. What the hell did he mean that she wasn’t one hundred percent human?

“
What? How can we find out what I am?” He took a towel and wiped away the lubrication.

“I can do a blood test. I need to take some o
f your blood anyway.” She hated needles, and hated her blood drawn.

“Okay,
” she said apprehensively.

“Let me see your arm.” She put
her arm up. “Okay I need you to sit up. Phoenix, get over here and help.” Phoenix knelt on the bed and crawled over to them. “Take her other hand.”

“Can
I see the babies?” Phoenix asked as he took her hand in his warm large hand.

“Sure, let me get the blood first.” Max
said and Phoenix nodded.

“Can you believe it? Twins!”
Phoenix smiled down at Jennifer and she couldn’t stop her smile from forming. Most guys would have freaked about getting a girl pregnant and especially pregnant with twins. But not Phoenix, he seemed happy. She felt a sharp poke, on her left arm and she turned to see. Max was taking her blood, and it looked weird. The tube attached to her skin drew the fluid from her and allowed it to drip into little vials; she felt her heart as it sped up. “Darling, look at me.” Phoenix’s sweet voice pulled her attention away from the tube filling with her blood. Jennifer felt a calming sensation take over her body and she knew he was doing it at this moment but she didn’t care.

“There, done. N
ow Jennifer I’m going to put that stuff back on you. Lay back again.” She did as he asked, but didn't let go of Phoenix's hand. Max brought out the bottle again and put it on her abdomen. He moved the wand around and smiled. “Here Phoenix, you can look at your babies.” He handed Phoenix the tablet, and he took it with his free hand.

Jennifer watched his
face; she watched his eyes filled with tears. “Which one is this?” He didn't look away from the tablet.

“That one is the girl.” A smile fo
rmed on Phoenix's face. Max moved the wand to where she knew the baby boy would be. “And here is the boy.” Tears started to stream down his face.

“This is amaz
ing.” He squeezed her hand.

“I'm going to run some test
s on your blood, and I hope to know what you are before the morning.” He moved the wand off, and wiped her off again. “Jennifer, I don't know if you have a regular OB, but I would like to be yours. You need me to make sure you stay alive. The babies will feed off you and your energy. Make sure you eat a lot.” He put his things away and she sat up. He handed her a card. “I can come here or anywhere that works for you. I also have an office. All of my information is on that card.” He took her hand and kissed it. “It was nice to meet you. And I will call Phoenix when I know.”

Phoenix's hand tightened
on hers. “I’ll walk you out.”

“No, I know my way.
Enjoy your happy news.” He winked at them and walked to the door. After he shut the door she and Phoenix sat in complete silence, but he was still holding onto her hand.

“My mom
is going to flip.” Jennifer said and placed her free hand on her abdomen.

“Yeah, well there is still time for you
to change your mind.” She tried to take her hand away from him, but he didn't let her. “Don’t get mad, I just want to make sure you are still on board.”

“I told you before these babies are mine, and I will keep them no matter what. I don't care what my family thinks. My mom will be happy
…I think.” She won't be too happy that Jennifer wasn't married, but there wasn’t much she could do about that. “What about your family?”

“My father isn’t around, and my mother hates me. She said if she
’d known what my father was she wouldn't have had me.” Jennifer gasped and placed a hand to her throat.

“I'm sorry
, Phoenix. That's a horrible thing to tell your own child.” Her heart broke for him.

“I don't want you to be sorry.
” His face softened and he brought her hand to his lips. “What do you want to eat? Steak, ribs, or burgers?”

“How about pizza with extra c
heese?” She hadn't eaten anything all day and that sounded amazing.

“Really? I could get you anything you want and you want pizza.”

“Yeah with extra cheese and extra pepperoni.” She smiled at him and he shook his head.

“If that is what you want, then I w
ill get it for you.” She smiled at him, and she wondered what they were to each other. Jennifer didn’t want to fall in love with him if he wanted nothing to do with her.

“Phoenix, what
are we to each other?” He closed his eyes.

“Darling, I’m not good at relationships.”

“I've only had one boyfriend, and then slept with a guy that wasn’t mine.”

“I think we should just stay fri
ends for now.” Great, now she was getting the friends speech. She knew he felt something for her; he got jealous over Max touching her.

“Friends?” Her voice cracked a little and she wanted
to kick herself.

“Darling--” She cut him off when she put her hands up. Jennifer didn’t want him to pity her.

“No it's fine. But I want to go home now please.” She looked away from him; she didn’t want to show him that he had hurt her.

“
If that’s what you want.” It wasn’t, but she needed to. She moved to the edge of the bed, and he was already there.

“How do you do that?” She didn
't look at him when she asked.

“
It's part of my power.” He helped her up by grabbing her arm and when she was on her feet she pulled away from him. “Darling, I don't want you to leave. If you want to be with me then I will try like hell to be the man for you. But I need you to promise me something.” She looked up at him and he grinned. “Work with me. I am high maintenance and get jealous very easily.”

“You jealous? No!” She laughed and
he glared at her.

“I mean it, I am crazy jealous.”

“So am I.” She thought about Melissa.

“So
we’re both jealous.” He put his large hands on her hips and moved closer to her. “What are we going to do about that?” He looked down at her and she looked away. She knew she was blushing. He lifted her chin so she was looking at him. “I want to see you when I make you blush. You are mine now, every piece of you.” His lips eased their way down to hers, and it took her breath away. She wanted to wrap her body around him and not let go.

She pulled
her lips away from his and he groaned. “Are you using your incubus magic on me?” She sounded breathless.

“What? I do it sometimes without knowing.”

“I want to be with you, without it please.” She looked up and smiled.

He closed his eyes for what seemed like forever. When he opened them, she did
n't feel a physical pull to him. But she still wanted him just as badly. “Better?” he asked.

“No
, you are wearing too many clothes,” she said as she unbuttoned her shirt. The skirt was already unzipped. He pinned her to the bed within seconds.

“You are teasing me, and I don’t kn
ow how much I can take.” She was thankful she was wearing her bra that clips in the front. She pressed it and took off her bra. His hot mouth latched on her left breast first.

She moaned
, she had been dreaming of this moment every night since he first made love to her. “Phoenix.” She moaned his name and cradled his head against her chest; he lifted his eyes to meet hers. Jennifer felt his teeth close around her nipple and she screamed, more: he lightly blew with his sensual mouth until the pleasure reached an apex only he could extinguish.

“See what you do to me darlin
g, you drive me crazy.” He moved to her other breast and did the same thing. “You are not the only one using magic. I am drawn to you.” He kissed up her breasts to her jaw and she arched her back to meet his scorching hot mouth. He slowly brought his face to hers so they were eye to eye. His eyes were almost black with his passion. “You are mine, and it makes me happy that no other man has been with you. You know they say if you are a virgin when you have sex with an incubus you will belong to him until the end of time.” He kissed her lips and his hands went to her waist. He slowly pulled her skirt down and her panties were quick to follow. He lifted his head and smiled gently at her. “I have waited a long time for someone like you.” Jennifer felt herself becoming lost in Phoenix; she knew she was falling for him. He lowered his head and nibbled on her ear lobe, she moaned again. “Close your eyes and think of me naked.” He whispered against her ear, and she closed her eyes. He sucked on her ear lobe, and she pictured his perfect muscular naked body with a red bow tied around his penis. She felt a tingling sensation all over her body, and a warmth rushed through her.

His laughter made her open her eyes and he moved away from her. He was
completely naked besides the big red bow that was tied around his penis. “I should have picked pink!” She laughed and he smirked at her.

“I have a way to stop you from laughing.” He
leaned down towards her and slid one finger against her clit. She gasped; she had missed his touch and she bit her bottom lip as he rubbed her clit again. “You’re already so wet.” He slowly massaged her bud and she started to grind her hips to match his speed. She closed her eyes to take in his touch. He slipped a finger inside her and she groaned. “Have you been with anyone since me?”  Her eyes sprung open.

“What?” s
he asked, and he stopped rubbing her clit. “No. Have you?” With the look on his face she wished she didn't ask.

“I had to feed.” He
looked away from her and she sat up. She understood that, and surprisingly it didn't bother her like she thought it would.

She touched his face and his eyes met
hers. “Make love to me.” He slowly brought his lips back to hers. The kiss started out slow and sweet, but quickly turned into something hot and demanding. He lifted her and carried her back to the bed and laid her in the center.

He gently touched
her face with his soft fingertips and she turned her face into his hand to kiss his palm. “You'll tell me if I’m hurting you?” She nodded, and he pressed the tip of his cock against her opening; he slowly entered her. Jennifer realized he was barely inside of her. He stopped moving and brushed his knuckles along her cheek. “I hope it’s alright, I want nothing between us. If not, I can stop.”

She moved her hands to his
ass, and gently squeezed. “You might have a problem if you stop.” Phoenix grinned down at her and kept his slow rhythm; she felt her pressure building. Just when she thought she was going to come he changed his position. Jennifer brought her hands to frame his face; he smiled at her.

“Phoenix you are driving me crazy.” She
bit her lip.

“I know, and don't worry I wi
ll let you come soon.” He kissed her lightly on the lips and she arched up to meet his thrust. Megan told her that if she squeezes her vagina muscles, she would make any guy go crazy. She did it and he groaned. “Oh my god, do that again.” She did and he groaned louder. It felt tighter for her when she did it, so she kept doing it. “Darling I have to feed, if not I have to go and find someone.” He breathed through his teeth.

She knew
that; she didn’t want him to have sex with someone else. “Do it.” She felt his energy enter her. It made her more sensitive to his touch and came apart instantly. As she was coming, he shouted her name and held her tighter to him. She felt his scorching release filling her and she came again.

He collapsed
on top of her breathing heavily, and his head fell to her shoulder. He smelled like chocolate and sex. “Am I hurting you?” He whispered into her ear and kissed the sensitive skin below her ear. She shivered in response.
