  His eyes widened. “Not a fuck. We prefer to keep to ourselves.”

  “You do realize that things have changed? By introducing The Program, you are integrating with humans. There is just a slew of bad press and speculation. It would be so much better if you would agree to a press release or an interview…something.”

  “It’s not going to happen.” His jaw tensed and he put the half-eaten sandwich down. “I really hope you’re not here to try and snag yourself an interview with one of the vampire kings. I kind of got the feeling that there was an ulterior motive. Is this it?”

  Fuck! She’d gone and said too much. What an idiot! “No.” She shook her head. “I’m here to be a part of The Program but that doesn’t mean that I can change who I am. Would I like an opportunity for an exclusive? Hell yes. I’m not going to lie to you.”

  The tension in his shoulders eased. “Thank fuck and thank you for being honest with me. For a second there…” He shook his head.

  He gripped the base of her chair and pulled her around so that she was facing him. His big thighs slid around either side of hers. “You’re the kind of female I could really fall for. It excites the fuck out of me but it also scares me.”

  It was so refreshing to see a big, badass alpha admit that he was afraid of something. It was also endearing. It made her feel like the worst person alive.

  Argh! She had to force herself to maintain eye contact.

  “What is it?” He slid his hands up her thighs.

  “It’s nothing.”

  “Are you afraid?” He asked.

  Alex nodded. “Yes, this is moving really quickly.” It shouldn’t be moving at all. It was pretend. She was on the job. It was nothing.

  “You have nothing to be afraid of, Alexandra.” Lazarus leaned forward. A beautiful smile graced his soft lips. “I will always be honest with you. I will never intentionally hurt you.”

  It was all pretend.

  Just a job.

  Nothing.

  Oh crap! She was in such deep trouble. His whole demeanor turned serious. “I think we just experienced a moment.”

  She nodded and swallowed hard. “I think we might have.” All true. She was in such deep shit that it was scary.

  “It is your turn to kiss me but what the hell.” He closed the small distance between them and gently brushed his lips against hers. The kiss was ever so sweet. Ever so soft. It could even be referred to as tender. It also made her heart beat faster. It made her want more.

  Lazarus pulled away ever so slightly. This time, Alex kissed Lazarus. Her kiss was not as soft or as tender. She crushed his lips. Nipped them. Sucked them, all out fucked them.

  She felt him smile against her. A chuckle sounded from somewhere deep inside him. “Alexandra.” He mumbled her name against her lips. “So demanding.”

  He picked her up as he stood. “I like demanding.” He crushed his lips to hers and she straddled him. Then he was peeling her off of him and placing her on the sofa.

  His mouth was back on hers. He cupped one of her breasts through her shirt. His chest vibrated with a deep groan. Lazarus squeezed her nipple and it was her turn to moan a little. Make that a lot. He squeezed and pinched, squeezed and pinched. He could work magic with those hands of his. Utter magic. She whimpered and tried to shamelessly dry hump him. His other hand held her in place, making it difficult to create any sort of real friction though. She made a sound of frustration.

  Lazarus finally slid his hand down her belly and cupped her mound through her jeans. “Is this okay?”

  “Not really.” She groaned, pushing his hand away so that she could undo her pants. “My jeans are totally in the way.”

  His eyes were hooded and she watched his Adam’s apple work. He kept his eyes on hers, leaning back in for another kiss. This time, when his hand slid down, it brushed against her slit. “No underwear,” he groaned. “That’s so fucking sexy.”

  “It’s lazy.” Her voice sounded funny. Thick with desire and longing. “I was running late this morning.”

  “Why am I not surprised?” Lazarus nipped at her throat as his finger circled her clit. “I want to put my mouth on you.” His finger dipped down to her opening and then moved back to her swollen clit. Coated with her juices, it slid easily over her sensitive flesh.

  Alex couldn’t talk for a second. It felt too good. She couldn’t think. Her skin felt too tight and her eyes were heavy. She also couldn’t seem to catch her breath.

  “Alexandra.” Lazarus paused while he finger fucked her a few times. She had to dig her fingers into his shoulders to stop herself from clawing at his hand. Had to press her lips together to stop herself from begging him for more.

  He leaned in so that his mouth was against her ear. Gooseflesh rose up on her entire body. “Let me lick and suck on you. I need to taste you.”

  Lick.

  Suck.

  Taste.

  Hell yes! “O-okay.” Her hips rocked against him. Her eyes squeezed shut as he inserted a second finger.

  “So damned tight.” He sounded pained. Like tight was both a good and a bad thing. She couldn’t think straight. Not with his hand doing such wicked things. Not when his other hand was pulling her jeans down her thighs. Then he was releasing her so that he could pull her jeans off of her ankles.

  He moved away and onto his knees on the floor in front of her. “Open.” He slid his hands up her legs and she did as he said. His gaze was focused on her pussy. Unwavering, so intense it took her breath away.

  He growled softly, pulling his bottom lip between his teeth. With one finger, he stroked across her tiny landing strip.

  “Yeah.” She groaned as his finger dipped between her folds for a second. She knew exactly what he was looking at. “I’m a natural strawberry blonde.”

  “Fucking exquisite. I’m going to eat the fuck out of you and enjoy every second.” It was the only warning he gave. Lazarus bent down and closed his mouth on her, sucking hard. She almost came right then and there from the sheer pleasure. He released her clit at the last second before moving to her entrance.

  “Oh Jesus…fuck…oh…” He was good with his tongue, which was long and thick. Alex buried her fingers into his hair. She couldn’t help the undulating movements her hips were making. Couldn’t help that she was pulling him closer. “Oh wow…yes…right there…that’s it…” She undulated harder, pretty much fucking the hell out of his face.

  It had been far too damned long. Why the hell did she have to like him? Why oh why did he like her back? Her whole story idea was going to shit.

  He moved back to her clit and thankfully her brain short-circuited. She couldn’t remember what she had been thinking about. It was something important, just not as important as the orgasm that was building, growing. It caused her back to bow as he licked and sucked on her clit. It caused her eyes to roll back. It caused her hands to fist.

  “Jesus….fuck…oh god…oh…” An awful growling, groaning noise was torn from her as her orgasm ripped through her. Her legs instantly tightened around his head. She wasn’t sure if it was because she wanted more or if she needed him to stop because it was already too much. Instead of stopping, Lazarus inserted two fingers and pumped in and out of her while continuing to suck on her clit.

  She screamed as a second…very unexpected…orgasm hit. It was more intense than the first. She tried to get away but he pinned her in place and made her ride it and ride it and ride it. Until her body felt slick, until her pussy felt slicker. Until her throat hurt from crying out like a crazy woman. Until her muscles shook from being so tense. Only then did he slowly ease off.

  “You taste divine.” He said as he finally lifted his head. “I could eat you all fucking day.”

  “That was too much.” She was panting hard. Could barely damn well talk. Her neck felt like it weighed a ton. Alex tried to move some hair out of her face but couldn’t lift an arm.

  Lazarus smiled. “It wasn’t nearly enough. It’s a good start though.”

&nbs
p; A start?

  Not nearly enough?

  Oh god! She was in so much shit. Lazarus grimaced as he readjusted his cock. The bulge in his pants was obscene.

  “It’s not really fair that I get to have all the fun.” The words popped out before she could stop them.

  He looked down at his dick and shrugged. “I’ll deal.”

  She shook her head. “Let me help you with that.”

  His eyes lit up. “Are you going to let me fuck you, Alexandra, because if…”

  Yes! Yes! Yes! Oh yes please! Every part of her body shouted in chorus. There was more clenching, puckering and tightening. It was like she hadn’t even had a single orgasm, let alone multiple orgasms…a first for her. “No!” A little too harsh. “I mean, it’s too soon. Oral is one thing, all out sex is another thing entirely.”

  Lazarus smiled. “Yeah, it’s so much better.”

  Better!

  No way could it get better. Just no! “We shouldn’t have sex just yet though. I’ll give you a blowjob.”

  He frowned so hard that she was sure his brow might crack. His jaw tensed up so much that she was sure she might have heard a tooth crack as well. “I learned about this in training.” His chest was heaving. “That’s when you get me off with your mouth.”

  “You are shitting me.” Alex pretty much shrieked. “Are you going to tell me that you’ve never had a blowjob?”

  He shook his head. “We like being bitten by our females but not on our cocks. Fangs tend to get in the way.” He shrugged. “I told you that I’ve never been with a human.”

  “Oh.” Alex smiled. “I understand.” She licked her lips while looking at the bulge in his pants. Alex patted the seat next to her. “Sit over here.”

  He began to fumble at the clasp on his belt, looking more nervous than she believed possible. She slapped his hand away. “I’ll take care of that. You sit back, relax and maybe hold on.”

  “Why do I need to hold on?”

  “You’re going to enjoy this…a whole damned lot. Since you seem to love your rules, I’m going to add a few of my own.”

  ****

  Lazarus swallowed thickly. “Sure.” His voice was gravelly. His dick so hard, he was sure he could knock down walls with it.

  “Do not grab my head and definitely don’t pull on my hair. No thrusting with your hips…”

  He had to chuckle. “Okay so this is going to be the opposite of what you’re permitted to do to me. I’ve never had a female move against my face like you did and I might be bald in certain spots on my head now.”

  Her cheeks heated. As in turned all out red. It was so fucking cute that he had to lean forward and kiss her softly on her gorgeous fucking mouth. He almost came just thinking about it wrapped around his cock.

  “It’s not the same.” She narrowed her eyes at him. “I’m sure you need a license for that thing.” She gestured between his legs. “You could kill me with that.”

  That’s what he was worried about. She was too damned small and he was too damned big. He liked her a whole damn lot but they might not be compatible. If he didn’t fit, it would be fucking over. He didn’t want to think about it. Lazarus was almost thankful when she said that she wasn’t ready for sex. Thankful! What the hell! He was a male in his prime, he should’ve been anything but. Thing was, he wasn’t ready to find out yet. Was so afraid of the possible disappointment.

  “Don’t look so afraid. Let’s get this baby out…I can handle you.” She laughed. “I’ve been told I have a big mouth. It’s time to put it to good use.”

  She undid his belt, opened the top button and carefully pulled down his zipper. Lazarus put his hands on either side of his thighs.

  She laughed. “You should see yourself, your eyes are really big, you actually look pale. Are you okay?”

  He nodded.

  She kept her eyes on him for a few more beats, clearly not buying it. “I never thought I would ever say this but we don’t have to do this. If you aren’t into t—”

  “No, please.” If she stopped, he would fucking self-combust. “Don’t stop.” He tried hard to remember all the things they had taught him about this in training. Alex had already covered the basics. Don’t grab the back of a female’s head and thrust down her throat. It was considered rude which he could well imagine.

  “Well, okay then.” She pulled his pants open and his dick sprang free.

  “Holy cow. Sweet lord up above.” Her eyes were wide but her smile was wider. “Wow…just wow. This I can work with.” She sounded excited rather than afraid.

  “It’s not too big?” He could hear the hesitancy in his voice.

  Alex laughed so hard she snorted. “Too big?” She slapped him on the side of the arm. “Look, I don’t know if I could actually carry your baby.” Her eyes widened when she realized what she said. “Hypothetically of course. It’s just that hypothetically speaking, I think I might be a bit small for that…”

  His heart actually sank like a kite on a windless fucking day. The thought of her not being able to take his cock was less disappointing than the thought of her not being able to carry his child.

  “The good news is that a vagina can seriously stretch. It will be tight but I’m sure it would be possible. I mean if we ever actually did the dirty that is.”

  His dick twitched at the thought of her pussy stretching around him. She gripped his base with her small hand. Her fingers were cool and gentle. His dick twitched again, harder this time. “Ooooh, I can’t wait to suck on this bad boy.” Her other hand gripped his balls and he groaned softly. Then she lowered herself to him while holding eye contact and took his entire head into her mouth on a light suction.

  He all out roared and gripped the edge of the sofa to keep from grabbing her head. He pushed his ass deeper into the seat to keep from thrusting up. He wanted to turn her over and fuck her. He wanted it more than he’d wanted anything ever before.

  Her head bobbed up and down as she moved on his dick, keeping that same suction. Her one hand moved up and down on the base of his shaft while the other massaged his balls.

  Motherfuck!

  It was different than sex. He would prefer to be inside her, but this came close to feeling as good. He just knew it. Her mouth was hot and wet. Even the odd scrape of her blunt teeth felt fucking good. She continued to massage and pump him slowly but eased off his head and licked his rim before lapping at the tip, treating his dick like the most delicious candy she had ever tasted. Her breasts swayed beneath the material of her tank. He was glad that he couldn’t see them. He wanted to enjoy this. Wanted to fucking savor it.

  He could feel sweat drip down his brow. He groaned as she sucked on him again, this time taking him deeper into her mouth. Up and down, in and out. Sweet torture.

  He gripped his thighs, having to work to stay still. His balls were pulling tight. He could feel the coil inside him. Could feel how every part of him was preparing for release. He grunted as she lowered back down, sucking him harder.

  His phone rang. His pocket went nuts. It was a tune he knew all too fucking well.

  Alex released him with a pop.

  Lazarus groaned. “I need to get this,” a guttural growl.

  Alex nodded. She stayed on her knees in front of him. She kept her hands on him. Pre-cum accumulated on his tip. It wouldn’t have taken too much more.

  “My lord,” Lazarus growled. The kings had fucked up timing. That was for sure.

  “Gideon’s female has been kidnapped.” Zane growled back at him.

  Lazarus sat up in the sofa. “Jenna,” he growled.

  “Oh…so you knew about this?”

  “Sort of.”

  “Never fucking mind. It’s not important right now. Her asshole ex has her. He’s demanding two million for her release. I need you to head up the team that takes this fucker down.” Lazarus could hear that his king was pissed. “I want you to select six other elite members…” Zane rattled off coordinates, expecting Lazarus to be there on a ridiculous time f
rame.

  “Consider it done.” He growled before ending the call.

  Alex released him and moved away. “You need to go.”

  Lazarus nodded. “There has been an…incident.”

  “Involving Jenna?” She looked concerned.

  “Yeah. There was no time to explain. She’s in danger and I need to go.” He leapt up, tearing his clothes off as he headed for the bedroom. It took all of three minutes to dress and strap his weapons to his body.

  When he returned to the living room, Alex was back in her jeans and sneakers. She turned to face him as he walked into the room. “Stay here. I’ll be back later,” Lazarus said as he strode towards her.

  She shook her head.

  “I don’t mind.” He would love to come back to this female, to find her here in his space.

  “I will go and find Sarah. I need to shower and change. I’m a mess.”

  “You’re beautiful.” He tilted her chin up and kissed her softly on her swollen mouth. It reminded him of where her lips had been minutes ago and his dick hardened up all over again. Not right now. He broke the kiss. “Sit tight. I’ll organize an escort.” He turned to leave.

  “Lazarus.”

  He turned back. “Yeah?” She kissed him. It was quick but oh so fucking good.

  “Goodbye,” she whispered.

  Lazarus grinned. “You’re catching on.”

  The last thing he felt like doing was leaving but he needed to be a part of the team that saved Jenna. Her ex was going to wish that he had never been born. If that bastard so much as touched a hair on her head, Lazarus would make it his personal mission to ensure that he suffered before he was permitted to die.

  “Good luck!” She yelled after him as he left. Her heart raced. It seemed as if she was scared for him. “Oh and be careful…please.” She was fucking scared.

  His heart swelled in his chest. “I’ll be fine.” He closed the door and headed down the hallway. Despite the adrenaline and the angst over what had happened to Jenna, he felt alive inside. He felt like the luckiest male in the whole world.
