“I can actually taste this chocolate,” Kevin replied, with a slight shrug of his shoulders. “I haven’t had any in over forty years. It certainly tastes better than I ever remember, or maybe it is just because I am eating it off of you.”
He started with her stomach, licking it clean, before inching lower until he turned his full attention to between her legs. Chocolate had ran down and pooled between her pussy lips, mixing with her juices. Yum, yum, Kevin thought. Nothing could be finer than chocolate and Erica. He wasted little time before consuming her, eating her out as if he were a man starved, licking and suckling as he went. He seemed determined to lap up every drop of chocolate on her, and then continued on, simply because she tasted so damn good.
He continued to twirl his tongue through her folds, over and around her clitoris. Now that the chocolate was gone, he sucked her little clit into his mouth, watching her excitement mount higher.
She squirmed beneath him, unable to keep still as pleasure ratcheted up and quickly overtook her body. She pressed herself closer to his mouth, feeling her orgasm coiling up in her womb. Just a little more, she just needed a little more, and her body would burst into flames.
When she was on the knife’s edge of exploding, he inserted a finger into her satiny, smooth, hot hole, and gave a flick of a twist with his hand. She exploded into a million pieces, making her see stars as one explosion started to die down and another, more earth shattering one took its place on its heels. She cried out as her body seemed to go into convulsions, throwing her head back hard enough to make her body bow. Kevin caught her upper body with his free hand, feeling the tremors racing through her. The inner walls of her pussy were clamped down tight around his fingers, making it feel like a tight glove. He held her tight against him, stroking her back as he awaited her tremors to cease. He kissed her lips gently, enjoying the way she was gasping and squirming due to her body being so sensitive.
“Are you okay?” he asked with a grin.
Erica blinked up at him, as if coming out of a trance. “Oh yes, I’m just fine. God, Kevin, that was incredible.”
“Hmm, and just think, I am just getting started.” Wrapping his arms around her, his lips found hers as he made quick work at untying her bikini top. Cupping her naked breasts in his hands, he murmured against her lips, “God, you’re beautiful, and I missed my buddies.” His head bent to suckle each nipple, quickly causing her to moan and writhe against him.
A bit breathless, Erica moaned, “Kevin, I want, oh God, I need,” she broke off on a gasp, unable to finish her train of thought.
“Yes, love. What is it you need?” he whispered seductively in her ear.
“You, I need you, inside me, please?” she begged. Kevin couldn’t help the grin on his face when he noticed her face turning a nice shade of pink. The day would soon come that she wouldn’t be embarrassed to ask for what she needed.
Cupping her face with both hands, he watched an array of emotions skate across her face. “You have no idea how happy you have made me,” Kevin whispered, and then snatched her up for a kiss with one hand, as the other was being put to use dragging his own shorts off.
Suddenly feeling emboldened, Erica broke off the kiss and pushed him onto his back the second his shorts were pushed down. The move caught him by surprise, causing a small, “What?” to roll off his lips as he went sprawling on his back.
“Speaking of beautiful,” she murmured, as she ran her hand through his chest hair, quickly making her way downward. “You are one mighty fine piece of work, Mr. O’Rourke.”
Realizing she wanted to explore, Kevin lay back on the blanket, placed both hands behind his head, and relaxed. “I’m glad you approve.” He grinned up at her mischievously. Far be it from him to stop a beautiful woman who wanted to explore his body. A quick moment later he sucked in a deep breath as he watched her hand wrap around his already aroused, fully extended cock, the other cupping his balls gently.
“Oh yes, I definitely approve,” she whispered, as she bent to deliver a warm kiss to the tip of his cock.
Her mouth was warm, wet, and felt like pure heaven as she wrapped her lips around the head of his dick, then slowly glided up and down, as she stroked him with her tongue. “Oh God, baby,” he groaned, knowing he wasn’t going to last long like this. “You feel too damn good…” he whispered.
Erica continued, ignoring his plea. Knowing he was ready to explode in about thirty seconds, he removed his hands from their interlocking position behind his head and jerked her head back. In one quick movement, he had her on her back and was poised on top of her. “I wasn’t finished,” she murmured with a confused pout on her face.
Dear God, she looked utterly sweet, innocent, and adorable when she pouted like that. “Next time,” he growled before crushing her with a bruising kiss. There was no hesitancy in this kiss.
It was filled with desperate need. He had to get inside of her before he exploded. His tongue invaded her mouth, and as it did, he entered her hot, wet channel with a one deep thrust.
Kevin broke off the kiss a moment later, and Erica glanced up into his eyes. He was attempting to take it slow with her, afraid he would hurt her otherwise. She was surprised to see a pained expression. “Baby, are you okay?” she inquired a bit breathlessly, as she attempted to squirm closer to him in an attempt to get him to pick up the pace.
“Hard…to…control,” he gasped.
“Baby, let go. Enjoy,” she crooned, wrapping her legs around his waist and locking her feet together at the small of his back.
“Don’t want…to…hurt…you.” He groaned. Little did she realize she had thrown her hair to one side, leaving a very delicious side of her neck open and vulnerable. He had spent the last five minutes battling his inner beast to keep his fangs hidden, knowing all along he was going to lose the battle.
Erica smiled seductively as she leaned forward and kissed the side of his neck. She then moved to just below his ear, darting her tongue out to swirl on his skin. He had always been a gentleman, and she was trying to let him know she was ready to crank things up a notch. Unable to put it into words, she did the next best thing by trying to show him. When she reached his earlobe, she placed it gently between her front teeth and lightly nipped.
He seemed to get her message, and as he rose up on his knees, he brought her legs forward bending at the knees. This enabled him to push further inside her than she ever thought possible. The intensity immediately picked up, and she found herself digging her nails into his wrists as he continued driving into her. He reached between them and teased her little clit, and she immediately shattered. Two more thrusts and Kevin threw his own head back and growled deeply, spilling his seed inside of her. As he dropped his head back down, Erica opened her eyes just in time to catch sight of his fangs, fully extended. Although he quickly turned his head to avoid her neck, going for the blanket under them, and taking a chunk out of it, her immediate fear was overwhelming.
Gasping, not able to drag enough air into her lungs no matter how hard she tried, her heartbeat ratcheted up even more struggling to intake enough air. She knew she should conserve her strength, but she tried in vain to push away from him. She needed space. She needed air, dear God she needed air. Her breathing came out as a loud rasping, wheezing sound, and as long as fear gripped her in its depths, she knew there was little chance for improvement. Finally, in a ragged gasp, “No, no, please don’t, please get off of me!”
Kevin quickly, forcibly, retracted his fangs, a move that hurt like hell, and then quickly scooted off of her. From the looks of things she was well in the middle of a major panic attack. Even trembling uncontrollably, she still attempted to push past him and stand up, trying to put some distance between them. The problem was Kevin doubted very seriously she could even walk, let alone stand on her own two feet in as bad of shape as she was in. When she got to her knees, he quickly caught her by her waist and brought her back down. Turning her to her side, he held her to him and gently rubbed her back in an att
empt to calm her. Throwing a heavy blanket of calm over her, he kept his voice soft and gentle as he spoke to her. “Shh, it’s okay, baby, I am so sorry, I never meant to scare you. I would never hurt you.” He cradled her head against his chest, still stroking her back, as he watched the blanket of calmness settle around them.
Erica remained unmoving for several moments, preferring to stay pressed up against Kevin’s body while she calmed her own and tried to clear her head. Still trembling slightly with fear, she fought her own body to get her emotions under control. Kevin kept her ensconced in his arms, reminding her to breathe, and whispered how sorry he was that he had inadvertently scared her.
In took several long, silent minutes before Erica could calm down enough to think things through. Once she did she realized how badly she had overreacted. Kevin was a vampire after all. And, even though he had a mouth full of fangs, no harm had ever come to her. He could have used those fangs at any given time over the past few months that she had been living at his house. But no, he was a man of honor, a man of his word. She lifted her head and stared into his eyes for a moment before speaking. “I know you would never bite me with the intention of hurting me, Kevin, but this is the first time I’ve seen your fangs. It just brought back some old ugly memories for a moment.” She hung her head in shame, tears stinging her eyes as the thought hit her that she had ruined their love making.
“Shit, I was afraid of that,” Kevin muttered, as he gathered her tighter in his arms. “I am so sorry. I never meant to scare you. It’s more of an instinct when I am making love to you. The urge to plunge my fangs into you is very strong, but that doesn’t mean I plan on doing it. Please, baby, please don’t think that I would ever hurt you, because I wouldn’t. In fact, I’d give my life for you.” Then, in an attempt to lighten things up he added, “Maybe we will just make sure we have plenty of pillows I can bite through while we are making love.” He softly kissed her eyelids and cheeks where her tears continued to silently fall.
“Kevin, I know you would never hurt me, but…” Erica broke off, suddenly shy about what she was about to do. She wiped her remaining tears away before taking a deep breath. She needed to put her fears to rest, and there was only one way to do that. “Can I ask you something?”
“Sure, what is it?” he replied with interest. Kevin had watched shyness overcome her a moment ago, and was doing his level best to honor his promise to stay out of her head, but he was honestly intrigued as to what she wanted to ask him.
Erica bit her lower lip and looked away from him, unable to look him in the eye while she made her inquiry. “I overheard something that I probably wasn’t supposed to. Nevertheless, it has made me curious. If a vampire bites a human, is it always painful to the human, or do you have the ability to take the pain away, and change it to something else?”
Kevin’s eyebrows flew up his forehead as he realized what she was asking. “First of all, I am curious as to exactly what it was you heard, and from whom,” he carefully replied, easily avoiding her question for the moment.
“I overheard Jennifer and Kate talking one day. Kate stated that it is very erotic to be bitten while making love. At the time, I assumed she was talking about two vampires, since I had never felt anything but pain with Shawn.”
A small smile tugged at the corners of his mouth as he ran a finger down her cheek, and then continued down her neck and chest. He should have known at least one of his sisters to be involved in this conversation somehow. Taking a deep breath as he held eye contact with her, he answered, “We do have the ability to erase the pain and change it to pleasure. That is part of what I was trying to explain to you about what Shawn could have done with you, if he had chosen to do so.”
The wary look of uncertainty on her face had him rushing to continue to explain. “It is all done through the mind. Once a vampire is touching a human, they have the ability to manipulate the mind to a certain degree. We can easily erase the pain of a bite completely, and change it over to where the recipient feels only erotic pleasure.” Kevin glanced down at Erica’s arms, bringing one up and kissing the inside of her wrist. “We also have the healing ability of closing the wound, leaving hardly a trace behind as compared to these.” He gave a pointed frown to the scars on her arm.
“How?” she asked, perplexed.
“Our blood,” Kevin answered. “Once the wound is made, if we use a little bit of our blood, the wound heals almost immediately, leaving virtually no evidence behind.”
“Okay, so, the mind thing only works if one party is human?” Erica asked.
“Well, yes and no. Vampires generally can’t read one another’s minds, because most of us learn early on how to keep walls up to block other vampires from invading our thoughts. Only an extremely old vampire can penetrate those defenses. However, vampires tend to lower their defenses when making love, and from what I am told, most of my kind find biting during love making very erotic. Some call it blood sex,” he continued, “because when done at the right moment, it will increase the pleasure of an orgasm immensely.
“Oh,” Erica replied quietly, as Kevin watched her cheeks stain red. She grew silent for a moment, and then glanced up at him hesitantly. “So, if I asked you to bite me, would you?”
“No, I would question your sanity!” Kevin exclaimed, as he vaulted up to a sitting position, all but throwing her out of his arms. Why would you ask such a thing? You’ve been bitten all over your body, for God’s sake, and the bastard didn’t even do what was necessary to help the wounds heal quickly, or to erase the pain.”
“That’s just it, Kevin,” Erica quickly countered back, “I want to take those nightmares, and turn them into something beautiful. I’m tired of being afraid. You are the only one that can do that for me.”
When Kevin remained silent, Erica pressed further. “Please, Kevin, I want you to do this. I need you to do this. I need to truly put the past behind me, and I want to enjoy a future with you.”
Kevin stared into her eyes as if seeking something from her soul. When he responded, it was barely above a whisper. “Baby, most of the time, when one of my kind bites during making love, it is considered a mark of possession. I can’t nor won’t take this lightly, Erica. I am already head over heels in love with you. If I bite you and leave my mark, I’ll not want another male, human or vampire, to ever touch you again. Do you understand? I’ll want you to be mine, now and forever more.”
He stopped for a minute and brought her up to a sitting position on the blanket. “Before we go any further, I have a question for you. I was going to wait for this, but the time seems right.”
Feeling a bit self-conscious, sitting on a blanket with absolutely not a stitch of clothing on, Erica hugged her knees up to her chest in an attempt to hide herself somewhat. For some reason he was hesitating, eyes glued to her face, as if trying to read something there. Finally, after what seemed like an eternity, he gently picked up one of her hands and brought it to his lips for a soft kiss.
“Erica, I love you. I love you more than I ever thought possible to love someone.” He reached up with his free hand and stroked her cheek, running his thumb over her bottom lip.
“I love you, too, Kevin,” she responded in little more than a whisper.
“Marry me,” came a whispered request through her head, and Erica realized he had not moved his lips to speak the request, and instead had done it telepathically.
Erica’s breath caught in her throat. “You want to marry me?” she verified, hoping her mind wasn’t playing tricks.
Kevin smiled beautifully. “I want to marry you and spend the rest of your life showing you every day how much I love you. I want to continue showing you that not all men are evil, and that true love is never painful.”
“Oh, Kevin, you have already proven to me that you are not evil, and I never knew making love could be like this,” Erica replied, as she threw herself into his lap, wrapping her arms around his neck, and peppering his face with kisses. “I know I probably have a few mor
e things to work through before I completely put myself back together, and if you are willing to be patient with me, then my answer is yes. Yes, I would love to marry you, Kevin O’Rourke.”
Kevin surprised Erica as he jumped up with her in his arms. “Kevin,” she squealed in surprise. Ignoring the blanket and the food, he took off for the house at vampire speed. Erica found herself attempting to catch her breath as he deposited her on the bed, a mere few seconds later.
“Don’t move, I’ll be right back,” he stated, as he turned and dashed back out the door. He returned just a few seconds later, finding Erica in the exact same spot he had left her, her backside perched on the bottom edge of the bed. He deposited the picnic basket on the bed next to her. “I thought we might want to use some more of that chocolate,” he stated with a wicked grin, as he leaned down to steal a kiss.
He clasped her hand and quickly led her around to the side of bed. Sitting down and bringing her down in his lap, he then drew a small box out from behind him. “I have a gift for you,” he stated simply, holding out what looked to be a small jewelry box. When it was directly in front of her, he flipped back the lid to reveal the contents.
Erica glanced down to the box being held in front of her, and was stunned to find a beautiful diamond ring. It was so breathtakingly beautiful that Erica was speechless. She heard herself gasp when she first spotted it, and then went silent.
Kevin had stumbled across a jewelry store while waiting for his flight in Brazil. He had immediately spotted the ring, and it was as if made just for her, the perfect ring. The large diamond in the middle was a four-carat marquise cut, and had numerous smaller diamonds nestled around it. It was beautiful, just like the lady he was now giving it to. Kevin heard her intake of breath as he lifted open the box, and as he continued watching her gazing at the ring, he noticed she was still holding her breath. Finally, realizing she had yet to release her pent-up breath, Kevin eyed her in concern.
