Chapter 165 New Beginnings
I think I have said this before, and I shall say this once again. Damien is nothing but a bearer of bad news. It is like a pesky little bug that follows you around. Now, if I did not love the man so much, I would have slapped him a long time ago.
But what does concern me is that why he is he coming with this to me now, for I have clearly made a promise to both my beloved and the Winchester boys.
My hunting days are over.
“My dear Damien, I do not see how this is my problem. Yes, it is a concern that the child got away from you, but it is not my problem to go find him. Now I shall inform the Winchester boys.”
“But my dear Lucas, it is…”
“It is nothing. It is not my problem to go solve. But please do amuse me and explain how it is that you did so?”
“Well,” Damien starts. “After the Winchester boys dealt with Lucius in their way, they suggested that we follow our Vampire Code and take care of our own.”
“Just wait one second there,” I step a rather disturbing step towards Damien. “They said what?”
“Well, perhaps we insisted that we need to deal with Stefan.”
My voice raises two tones higher in rage, and I now have him nearby the throat, “We underestimated Stefan once, and now he has done it yet again. Your suggestion was foolish. That is why they call themselves hunters. The matter should have been resolved, and why on earth do you still make use of the dungeon?”
“Well, I thought it would still get handy one day?”
“Oh, believe me, it has just gotten handy.”
I turn back to Cassidy that does not know if she should perhaps just remain quiet or burst out in somewhat uncontrollable laughter.
“Lucas, what can a silly boy like Stefan do. He had to get the help of Elloise. The little boy is alone now.”
“He is young and reckless. The worst kind of Vampire you can get. You had my guidance; he shall live as he sees fit and how.”
“But then he shall be taken care of then?”
I only but shake my head in frustration. The one wants me to go hunt him and the other to leave him alone. What is the purpose of asking me if they are going to make up their minds up the way they want? I am remaining with my choice. I shall not become the hunter. This shall be the work of those that are born themselves to do so.
“There is no need to further discuss this. I shall make the Winchester boys aware of the problem. And after they nearly rip me apart, then I am going to live my Vampire life in peace. The only other problem I ever want to hear from you, my dear Damien, is relationship advice. But that I shall recommend not to take.”
With that, I make my leave and head upstairs to my bedroom, but as I turn back, I see Cassidy still faffing around with Damien over Stefan.
“My beloved, are you with me, or shall we be staying in separate rooms? I shall not let anyone defy my decision, and that includes Damien and you.”
Cassidy only but shakes her head at me and comes in a rather big huff upstairs. From the look on her face, it seems that I shall be getting lip from her the moment we step inside the room, and oh, believe me, it is not the kind that I wish for.
So as we step through the door, and she firmly shuts it, she slowly walks on over to where I am undressing my coat.
“Thank you.”
“Thank you for what, my beloved?”
“For keeping your promise.”
“But I thought you were standing with Damien on this.”
“Oh, no. I just told him that he has awful taste in women.”
“My beloved, you know how some men are, they only… and believe me from the things he was thinking, I would say that I was rather blushed.”
She spins around in a circle and glances over the room with a frown on her face, yet a smile as well. Then she comes to a stop once again and looks deep into the bottom of my eyes.
“So what do we do now?”
“What do you mean?”
“If we are not going to run after things all day and night. What are we going to do with ourselves?”
“We live normal lives; the only benefit is that we get to live it for longer than most people do.”
“But that does sound boring, though.”
“Was your life not the same as before now? There is nothing exciting about being a Vampire depends on what kind of lifestyle you wish to choose for yourself, but in the end, you are still living the life that a normal person will do.”
“So, can I become some biker girl cruising the streets of London?”
“I do believe that shall be rather disturbing, and I do not see myself the kind of biker dude.”
She bursts out in laughter once more and clasps her hands around my neck, “You just said, dude.”
“I believe that I did. But you get what I mean. You can be anything you want to be.”
“Then can I go back and finish medical school?”
“And eat your patients?”
“Of course not; I would rather hunt for my prey. There they will be given to you and be poorly ill as well. I do like my meals to be up to a standard.”
“If you wish to do so, then you should desire as your heart seeks.”
“And you, what do you desire?”
She does bring a good question. I have been a Vampire for such a long time that I truly really do not know that it is what I desire from this life. Yes, my purpose was to always find love. Now I do. Is this where it ends for me?
I have all the wealth and power in the world and the woman by my side to share this with; what else is it that I could possibly want?
Should we truly then live our lives as boring humans?
I am not asking should I become a hunter; that is not the question. What else is out there? What is it that this destiny of mine should be?
Well, I have an entire eternity to figure that out. As long as I am with Cassidy by my side, there is nothing else that matters.
As I turn around after hanging my coat off the rack, I watch how she is elegantly sliding her fingers down her slender legs to uncup her stilettos. I admire her beauty for but a moment before I move in next to her and run my fingers down her calf and slip the other and drop it on the floor.
When I turn back to look into her eyes, I tuck a loose hair behind her ear and softly whisper, “My beloved, I love you.”
Pulling me closer in a gentle hug, she speaks to me slowly, “And I love you too, Lucas.”
“Do you know that it has been a year today that we met each other in that dark alley?”
“Really? A year. It feels like an eternity.”This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
I only but chuckle at her; it has been quite the ride; for the past year, she had taught me more than what I know when I was a human even. She not only taught me what it is to practice self-control but also patience. Yet there is still a lot to tame about this man, the thing she taught me the most is love.
After picking her up and softly dropping her body elegantly, and let it disappear between the silk sheets, I shift my body close to her and let my gaze fall on her eyes. For everything that she has been through, her beauty is still beyond compare. After every creature and even losing her beauty, she is still a sight to behold.
So I gently lean over and pin her between my arms, my lips run down from the tip of the sensitive part of her ear to the nape of her neck. With slow hungry kisses, I cover the length of her shoulder and move back up to her sweet cherry lips.
Then with one word, “Please.” I slide my fangs from underneath my lips and press them hard against her soft skin. I nip and nibble and scratch them up and down her neck, driving her slowly insane. Then from out of nowhere, she sits up straight, and without any elegance at all, she slams her fangs deep within my neck and grabs firm.
My very first instant is to react, and I drive my fangs even deeper in than hers. I cry out in absolute ecstasy as she starts drawing each drop from me with pure hard force. Just the amount of roughness I desire to feel from her lips.
With that, I grab hold of her hair and pull her head to give me more access. I dive in with pure pleasure as I suck and take every drop that I so desire. It gives me a complete rush through my body and ignites all that built-up tension that I have been holding in for only but mere hours.
As she takes and I give, she gives, and I take some more. In a moment of seven sensations of pleasure, we have our fangs firmly held within in the delicate skin of our neck, just feeding off each other.
After for what is another minute, we both finally drop back onto the bed, and she looks at me, “Now that is better than sex.”
“My beloved, I do disagree, but that feels near like heaven. And heaven is what you are. Let us remain like this for eternity.”
“We shall remain like this for eternity.”
