The Two Kings (Afterlife Saga) (4 page)

“I think I should sta
y her
e
until you hear what I’ve got
to say” I said
,
without any backbone at all. He tilted his head to one side
and
commanded
in a dark tone

“Look at me
.
”
W
hich was a bad idea
,
as i
t felt as if
he was trying to burrow
inside my head, making me do his will.

“Don't do that!” I said
,
getting angry that he was trying to use his powers on me but he just laughed.

“Then obey me and come here
.
” His face was soft and I couldn't help but trust his
easy
smile.

“
I
doubt you will still want that, afte
r I tell you what I’ve done....i
t’s
something bad….
l
ike
really
bad....
but it was a mistake and completely my fault
!
” I blurted out and he laughed again
as though
I was missing something.

“Poor Vincent, I doubt he found it that bad
.
” He laughed again but this time I was sure it was at the sight of my face drop.

“What…how…
you already know?” I asked dumbfounded.

“Of course
, but you are not at fault” h
e said so matter of fact
that
I had to shake my head at him.

“You
’
r
e
not angry?”

“I might be a jealous fool over you Keira but I do know the difference between an honest mistake and one not so innocent
.” He said this last part as if
he remembered seeing Jack kissing me in his club.

“However
” h
e said drawing out the word before continuing.

“
I will get angry if you don't give me what I want and you have kept me without your skin on mine for far to
o
long, come here
.
” He
nodded
next to him and I bit
my lip, loving how demanding he was for my body. I walked over to the bed
,
taking my time and wa
tching his aggravation grow made me smile
.

He grabbed my body before I ha
d chance to sit down on the bed and
pulled me so close to him I could feel his passion for me press hard
up
against me. Well it looks like even Demon/Angel half breeds get a morning glory! His lips found mine before I could speak
and his tongue parted my lips,
creating a fire in my lower belly
. The intoxicating taste of his tongue on mine had something else in me burning very quickly. His hands ran up
my back and into my hair. H
e pulled my hair band out gently
,
letting my hair flow down around us
both. But before I could get to
o carried away (ok to
o
late for that)
, we needed to talk about this. So when his lips left mine and started to travel down to my neck
,
I took my opportunity to ask him.

“How did you know?” My vo
ice was shaking with the pressure building between my legs that his kiss was doing to me.

“Vincent told me
.” He said as if
it was obvious
. He
sat up and when I did the same he
shook his head telling me no. He gently pushed me back down as he expertly removed my clothes in silence. His eyes scanned every part of my now exposed skin and I saw his jaw twitch as he ground his teet
h together. His hands gripped the top of my thighs and explored further up to my cheeks, once there he ground
me into him further. I let out a moan as I felt it rub up against my weak spot.

“Draven I think...mmm
.
” I was stopped in my tracks as the feeling was getting more elevated.

“You were saying” He said into my neck but I had lost my words and my mind for that matter. His hands were still pulling my body into him and movi
ng me to his will.
I felt
like a bendy doll that just wanted to be played with!

We were soon
on our sides
,
facing each other t
hen he pulled me down to the right
height.
He
was looking down at me with hunger in his eyes. His hands found the inside of my legs and he spread them apart
,
so he could then enter me. The force made my back arch and I screamed out. His hands fought my body
’s reaction,
as I
tried to pull up but the hands on my hips were stronger and pulled
me back down onto his solid manhood
, causing me to shriek out
again.

The pleasure was clearly to
o
much for me to take and I climaxed after only what seemed like seco
nds. But as he continued to t
h
rust against
me
,
he got even more aroused by the noises I was making. He growled
at the sound of me screaming,
which brought me back to the bed that was getting a pounding. His hands held my wrists down over my head and his mouth found my
exposed
nipple. I lo
oked down to see the deep, purple
ring around his black eyes as the Demon side was dominating his powerful body. He saw me looking at him and this seemed to
drive
him
into a supreme frenzy. His hands left my wrists and fisted into either side of
the pillow under my head
, so as he could tear it apart. Ripping it in half caused
spotless white feathers
to rain
down
,
landing on my equally white skin.

Then his arms wrapped around
my body so tight
ly,
I could only just
breathe
as I knew what was coming next. For once he was the one to arch half his body upwards
, taking some of me with him,
as it was time for both of us to climax
in perfect sync
. His neck went back
, the tendons straining against his skin as
his head looked
at the canopy above,
he
then
released
o
ne last cry
that turned
into
half
a
growl. The action
reminded me of a wolf throwing his head up to howl at the moon.

Meanwhile my head rolled back into the mass of feathers as I bit my lip to hold in the scream that found
its
way out anyway. When I had finished convulsing Draven's body collapsed on top
of
me and his weight was comforting. His head rested next to mine and I waited until his breathing calmed before speaking first.

“Well
...
that was intense
,
” I said smiling but he whipped his head up to look at me seriously.

“I didn't hurt you did I?”

“No
,
no
,
of course not, what I meant was that it was intense
,
in a good way
,
” I said smoothing out the line that had formed
in
between his eyebrows
.

“Ah, well as long as you enjoyed it” he smirked
and then winked at me making
me melt like butter on a hot crumpet.

“Umm...
I don't think there would
have
be
en
a woman alive or man for that matter that wouldn't have enjoyed that. That was bloody marvellous!” At this he let out a roar of laughter that made me jump.

“I have never had sex like this ever before
,
so it means I sometimes lose control, which believe me is not something I am used to and with what you do to me, I have to be even more careful
,
as I have never experienced losing control around a human
before
...
I forget how breakable you are.” He had my hands in his, entwining his long
, thick
tanned fingers with my thin white ones. There was such a contrast in colour and size I let out a nervous giggle.

“Is that why you sometimes bite me?” I asked always being more than curious about that but he looked a bit ashamed.

“Yes” h
e said
sternly before continuing.

“
It is an impulse, like an animal instinct but with a human it seems to be more enhanced. The smell of your skin and the blood underneath it,
it
is too much for me not to taste. But I have found I can contain it if I concentrate very hard
.
” I was fascinated but I found myself wishing he didn
't feel like it was a bad thing. D
uring sex
,
I had wanted him to bit
e
me as it seemed to intensify the pleasure and now I had a better understanding about people that like
d
that sort of thing.

“So the pillow got it instead
,
” I remarked blushing. He lifted his lids to look at me once, giving me a quirky smile before lowering his lids to one of my breasts
,
where a single white feather had landed.
He then got closer and
blew on it making it tickle it
s way to my neck. I closed my eyes and sighed at
the prickling it made on my skin
. Then I flashed open my eye
s and remembered what i
t was I
wanted to tell him.  

“
I like it!” I blurted out but he ju
st shook his head, knowing what I meant.

“I do
, I don't know why but it just feels right when you
bite me
and of course there is the pleasure that follows
.
” Now th
is had him raising his eyebrows and leaving the feather
forgotten
.

“I think you are to
o
good
in
giving into my needs.
I am selfish when it comes to getting what I want. I know this but you have the power and right to tell me no, do you understand?” Oh I underst
ood but it still took me back on
hear
ing
it being spoken. He was saying that I was his equal and that he would in fact obey me if I so wished. Then as if by nature I had a floo
d of naughty thoughts whip through my mind all at
once. Of
course he wanted to know what i
t was that had me smiling like an idiot but I just licked my lips before kissing him.

“So now tell me, is Vincent
very
angry with me?” I asked dreading the answer but judging from Draven's soft black eyes and
a
smile that made his face light up, I
guessed I
was being paranoid again.

“Of course not, why would he be?”

“Because I kissed him
,
” I said feeling the shame burn my cheeks.

“
Yes you did but it was my fault.
I should have been the one to put you to bed myself but instead I sent my brother to check on you. Granted he got more than he bargained for but I doubt very mu
ch that he minded.
I can imagine he hasn't
been
able to stop thinking about it!”
He laughed at both a combination of his comment and my reaction to it.

“Oh don't say that!” I buried my head into the pillow that used to be in one piece only instead I got a face full of feathers. Draven fell on his back and pulled me on top of him so I couldn't hide. I rested my folded arms on his wide
ch
est and looked down at him, and
again
,
he was grinning.

“Well I remember what our first kiss did to me. And after all, you were his first human kiss...poor bastard!” He laughed again making me shake with him but I frowned hiding my smile and jabbed him in the side.

“You shouldn’t say that
!”

“Oh Keira don't fret, he is fine. I
am just teasing you but what
can I say, I am half Demon
.
” And with this, he smiled showing his full set of white teeth and for the fi
rst time I noticed his canines
were larger than most humans. No wonder he had been able to bite me so easily.
