Safe Hex With a Vampire (11 page)

“Where am I?” she demanded weakly.

“My bed,” he answered in a slightly rough
voice. His eyes had darkened some.

“What did you do to me?” Her voice sounded
slurred to her own ears. She wondered why she wasn’t freaking out.
Strange that she was tied to a bed and probably drugged but not at
all afraid. If she was being honest with herself, she wasn’t even
really all that mad.

“I kidnapped you and then fed off of your
energy so that you wouldn’t be able to untie yourself when you came
to.” He said this with no guilt at all. In fact, he looked down
right proud of himself.

“Let me go, Aiden,” she demanded with as
much authority as a woman tied to a bed could manage.

He stood up and crawled onto the bed,
settling his weight between her legs. “That, luv, is something that
I just can’t do.” He stared down at her and placed both hands on
her cheeks.

As she stared back at him, she felt the
energy pouring into her body. He was feeding her. Her strength came
back in a rush. She reached out her mind and first untied her legs,
then her arms. When she was free she pushed Aiden onto his back and
kissed him.

She was straddling him, and he had the
strangest sensation of their life forces joining in some way.
He had fed from her and then pushed the energy back into her,
something that he’d never tried before. Honestly, it wouldn’t have
worked with a human so he hadn’t had many opportunities to try it.
Now it felt like those tiny threads of energy were tangled up into
a knot. He felt her arousal just as intensely as he felt his
own.

“Oh, God!” he groaned when she pulled back
slightly. “Tempest, you’re going to kill me.”

She gave him a smile that was pure sex. “You
aren’t getting off that easy, vampire.”

He gladly let her explore his body. Never in
all of his days had he been with a woman this bold. Tempest ran her
hands down his bare chest and along the muscles of his arms as she
moved his hands above his head. He was so entranced with her
exploration of his body that he didn’t notice that she was using
her mind to move the ropes on the bed. When he tried to reach out
to touch her, he realized that his arms were bound.

Without warning the door to the room slammed
against the wall.

“Aiden?” His cousin, Justin, sounded shocked
to see him. That made sense since Aiden had been kicked out of this
house after the unfortunate incident.

He just hadn’t been able to come up with a
better place to take Tempest. Certainly a hotel would have been a
bad idea. He supposed it might not be his presence so much as the
circumstances that seemed to shock his overly prudish cousin.
Justin wore grey sweat pants and a white tank top, a sure sign he’d
been on his way to workout. His brown hair was styled neatly even
though Aiden knew he’d wash it after he worked out. Aiden was
always amazed at how uptight Justin could look in sweat pants.

“Aiden’s here?” It was his cousin Drew, the
biggest pain in the ass in the family, wearing nothing but boxer
shorts. When Drew saw him he grinned. “Do you need any help?” He
had his cell phone in his hand and lifted it to snap a picture but
Justin snatched it out of his hand.

Aiden swore and wondered why everyone was
out of bed so early. It was just after six in the morning. When
he’d stayed here, no one had been up at this hour.

Tempest laughed at his irritation.

“This is not at all funny, witch,” he said
but found himself smiling. Maybe it was a little ironic.

“It’s really your own fault.” she told
him.

“How is this my fault? People should learn
how to knock.” He knew he sounded pouty and he didn’t care. He had
a sexy woman straddling him while he was tied to a bed. Visiting
with his cousins was the last thing on his mind.

“You do know that the door has a lock,” she
pointed out helpfully.

Justin looked annoyed, which was pretty much
the way he always looked. “Why would we knock? You were kicked out
months ago. I heard suspicious noises coming from this room so I
came to check it out.”

Drew added. “I heard sex noises and I wanted
to watch.”

“Could you just give us some privacy?” Aiden
said through his teeth.

“Why are you here?” Justin asked, completely
ignoring his request.

Aiden shrugged as much as he could while
tied to a bed. “It was close and I needed a place to take her.”

“He drained me and then kidnapped me.”
Tempest added helpfully.

“Technically, I kidnapped you first,” Aiden
said.

“You really need to work on your technique,”
Justin said and he seemed amused. Aiden didn’t recall ever seeing
Justin amused.

“Looks more like she kidnapped you,” Drew
said from the chair at the foot of the bed. “Don’t let us disturb
you.”

“Can we just have a few minutes?” Aiden
asked.

“You had better need more than a few
minutes,” Tempest grumbled.

“Tempest?” Aiden asked patiently.

“Yes, Aiden?”

“Do you think you could take them out of the
room?”

She smiled sweetly. “Of course.” Then she
looked over her shoulder at his cousins. “Please leave.”

Justin nodded. “We do need to talk, but it
can wait until later.” Then he took one last look at Tempest.
“Damn! You look really familiar, but I just can’t place your face.”
With that he turned and walked out of the room.

Drew never could take a hint, or sense
danger, so he continued to sit on the chair by the bed. “I won’t
get in the way. I prefer to watch anyway. She’s a little skinny but
she has a nice ass, Aiden. Would you mind if I get my phone back
from Justin and make a video?”

“Last warning, Drew,” Aiden said
cheerfully.

Drew laughed, but it didn’t last long.
Tempest reached out her mind, and pushed the energy through the
room. The chair that Drew was sitting on crashed backward and then
slid across the floor and out of the room. Aiden heard the door
slam shut and the lock click.

“Now where was I?” she asked.

“On top of me?” he suggested helpfully.

“Is it always like this?” she asked as she
rocked her hips back and forth “When you feed on energy is there
always this overpowering arousal that comes after it? It’s like an
aphrodisiac.”

He lifted his hips up slightly and groaned.
“So you’re aroused?” he asked, unable to hide how much that pleased
him.

“More than I have ever been in my entire
life,” she admitted with no shame at all.

“It’s never been like this for me before,”
he admitted. “Are you gonna untie me so I can help you out with
that arousal?”

She gave him a slow seductive smile and
shook her head. “I like you right where you are.” Then she ground
her hips against him again “From the feel of things, you like it
quite a bit yourself.”

Aiden closed his eyes and moaned. He’d
played bondage games before, but he’d never been the one tied to
the bed. He had to admit that he kind of liked it.

Tempest reached down and unzipped his
pants.

Aiden opened his eyes to watch her as she
stood by the bed to remove her own clothes. He sucked in a breath
at the sight of her standing there naked. Her breasts weren’t big,
but they were perky and her pink nipples were erect. He wanted
nothing more than to take one of those nipples into his mouth. She
smiled at him and pulled her hair forward so it covered her
breasts.

“Tease,” he complained.

“Poor baby,” she crooned as she struggled to
pull his pants down over his hips.

“If you had untied me I could have given you
a hand with those,” he reminded her as he shook the ropes on his
wrists.

The little witch laughed at him and her
laughter sent a wave of energy pulsating through the air. “I don’t
think so.”

He gave a husky laugh. “Well, then I guess
I’ll just have to lay here and let you do all of the work.”

“You poor abused man,” she teased and then
went back to work undressing him. When he was completely naked she
took a moment to just stare at him.

She’d seen Aiden naked before so it wasn’t
like it was a surprise how hot he was, but she wasn’t sure she
could ever get tired of it. His legs were muscular, and she’d
always had a thing for men with muscular calves. His thick penis
twitched when she licked her lips. She’d never seen a real man with
six pack abs before Aiden. His chest was broad and muscular
with very little hair. Muscles corded his arms. She’d been so
flustered when she’d seen him naked before that she hadn’t taken
the time to study his body art. On his right bicep he had an
armband tattoo with some intricate knot pattern that met a tree of
life. On the left side he had a tattoo with a serpent like dragon
that started at his shoulder and wove around his arm, stopping just
a couple of inches above his elbow. When she got to his face she
noticed Aiden’s smug grin. He still hadn’t shaved and he now had
the beginnings of a scruffy beard. “Like what you see?” His tone
was cocky.

She shrugged. “I’ve seen it before.”

Her answer made him laugh. “Did you like it
then?”

He looked surprised when her cheeks flushed
a little. “Yes, I liked it quite a bit.”

His smug grin faded when she pushed her hair
back over her shoulders.

“Like what you see?” she asked.

He looked down at his erection. “I think
it’s
painfully
obvious how much I like what I see.”

She climbed back onto the bed, and straddled
him again. He groaned and lifted his hips up to grind into her. She
leaned down and kissed his mouth. She had been fighting her desire
for him for days and now she just wanted to give in to it.

When Aiden had envisioned his perfect mate
she had always been sweet and demure. Now he realized what a fool
he’d been. This woman would never be described using either of
those words, and she made him hotter than he had ever been.

She pulled her mouth away from his and
kissed her way down his body. She seemed to revel in his body and
that aroused him even more. When her mouth covered his cock, he
lifted his hips up off of the bed. “Christ Tempest! You need to
stop that now or I won’t last.”

She laughed with him still in her mouth and
he nearly whimpered.

When she was done laughing at his
predicament, she lifted her head and smiled up at him like a siren.
Her mouth was still close to him. “What’s wrong, vampire?”

“Untie me and I’ll show you, witch.”

“I don’t think so,” she purred and straddled
him again. It took her some time to guide him into her. She was too
tight. It had been too long for her, and he could tell that it
wasn’t exactly comfortable, but it also didn’t appear that
uncomfortable. She moved slowly at first, as she stretched to
accommodate him.

Nothing in his life had ever felt as
incredible as her body wrapped around him. The energy from her body
hummed around his cock. It vibrated through him. “You feel
unbelievable.” he murmured.

“It feels like you have a vibrator in your
penis,” she said in awe.

Aiden laughed. He couldn’t help it. Then she
picked up the pace and he couldn’t laugh, couldn’t speak, and
couldn’t even come up with a coherent thought.

She was making the sexiest little noises as
she moved against him. Aiden lifted his hips off of the bed to get
as far inside of her as possible. It was the most incredible thing
he had ever experienced. She was hot and wet, and completely wild.
The little sounds she was making kept getting louder and
louder.

When she finally climaxed around him it sent
him over the edge as well.

She screamed and then she collapsed on top
of him and laughed.

“What’s so funny?” he asked, grinning like
an idiot.

“Did you happen to notice the bed
posts?”

He looked down at his hands, which were
gripping her hips, with bed posts dangling from the ropes on his
wrists. If he’d had the energy he would have laughed too. Instead
he drifted off to sleep, completely sated, with a naked witch
sleeping on top of him.

I will never forget that day. It was the day
I watched my brother collapse to his knees and weep. I cannot tell
you how thankful I was to have Claudia with me. I had no idea how
to comfort my grieving brother. It was Claudia that held him as he
wept.

Excerpt from Roman Draksel’s blog

“Wake up, Aiden.”

The sound of Tempest’s voice made him smile.
He was curled around her body, and had no desire to move. At some
point they had removed the bedposts from his arms and they’d both
been awake enough to have sex again. He’d like to say that it had
been less rushed but that would have been a lie. He wasn’t sure
that there would ever come a time when he wouldn’t feel that sense
of urgency to be inside of her.

“Go back to sleep,” he murmured, refusing to
open his eyes. He knew for a fact that they hadn’t slept that long
and he was still tired.

“You need to feed me. I’m starving,” she
said as she pushed his arm off of her “I also need to call my
sister.”

That was like a splash of cold water. Of
course she needed to call Ivy. He’d kidnapped Tempest and someone
must have noticed by now. If he was lucky, no one had called the
police yet. He was pretty sure that Ivy wouldn’t believe that he’d
harm Tempest. The problem was that he wasn’t sure Ivy would assume
Tempest was with him. Tempest had essentially wandered away from
the ceremony and disappeared. He rolled onto his back and sighed.
“Can’t we just avoid reality a little longer?”

She rolled over and looked at him. “What do
you want from me, Aiden? Other than the obvious, what are you
hoping to get out of this?”

“I want you to stay.” he admitted. “I just
want you to stay with me.”

“We hardly know each other,” she said in a
tired voice, “and we fight most of the time.”
