by Heather C. Myers


  Nikolai couldn't exactly pinpoint the moment when he knew he wanted to spend the rest of his being with her. In fact, he remembered fighting against the notion of marriage all together because he knew that forever would literally be a very, very long time. At least for him it was. If she had decided to let him sink his fangs into her flesh. But now that he had her, every time he saw his ring on her finger, he didn't regret his decision even for a moment.

  It would seem that Nikolai had his father and mother to thank for his happiness and understanding of the situation. They had a love story for the ages; little girl vampires aspired to have a romance as King and Queen Dragulia – real people rather than literary, movie, and television couples. Little boy vampires wanted the same thing, though they would never admit it, and that included Nikolai.

  He had never felt anything particular with Marie, and his gut was proven to finally be right, even after a while; she was nothing but bad news. Elizabeth, on the other hand, was bad news from the very beginning, and yet, Nikolai seemed to prefer her news to Marie's, or anyone else's for that matter. It was like she had crawled underneath his skin and decided to stay there without asking for Nikolai's permission, and somehow, that was okay with him. The newly anointed King would never admit it, but he had been worried that once she had left, she wouldn't be coming back.

  When she had returned, Elizabeth had promised that she would be killing him.

  Well, some promises were meant to be broken, it would seem.

  With that in mind, Nikolai flipped his wife over. Sure, Elizabeth had started the act, but Nikolai wanted nothing more than to finish it. Her hair was splattered around her messily, and her cheeks were flushed with surprise, but Nikolai had never seen her look so beautiful. The urgency in the way she clung onto him told him not to stop, to continue, in and out. He wanted to touch her very core.

  Then she did something he had not expected, especially since she was on the brink of climaxing. She pushed the wisps of hair away, over her shoulder, and tilted her head to the side so the column of her throat – the one he wanted to taste – was exposed. Just for him.

  "Take me," she breathed, barely managing to open her eyes.

  "Are," he began, but couldn't finish just yet. "Are you sure?"

  She smiled at him and nodded her head.

  Nikolai didn't need to be told twice. Now that he was more determined than ever to please her, he restarted his ministrations, burying himself inside of her before pulling out, and continued the act until he felt her tighten around him, her breathing becoming hitched.

  And then, without warning, he slid his fangs into her neck, causing both of them to reach their respective climax simultaneously – a rare feat, even for a vampire.

  Their dreams would come true; they would belong together for the rest of eternity, and maybe one day, children would look at their love story, and aspire to attain it themselves.
