Dad blew out an aggravated breath. “Still not psychic.”
Jake brought him up to date.
“Gael is either madly in love with the bitch or he’s totally bonkers,” Dad remarked.
I snorted. “If he were a prisoner of the Tai-Kok for any length of time, I vote for bonkers.”
Kaelen swayed.
Wrapping an arm around his waist, I helped him over to a low wall and held out my left wrist.“Zarek said you would need blood.”
With a goofy grin on his face, Kaelen babbled,“You are the perfect mate.”
“Mate?” Jake repeated. “Does he consider you his wife? Have you done it mentally?”
I scowled. “None of your business.”
“But it is my business and you’re too damn young to be messing around with anyone let alone with a horny, three-hundred-year-old warrior,” Dad bellowed.
Was Kaelen really three hundred years old? A better question was: How did Dad know?
Kaelen bared his fangs and growled at Dad.
“Enough!” I planted a hand on Kaelen’s chest.“We are family now. Got it?”
“Yes, my lady,”Kaelen said.
His brows furrowing in a fierce frown, Dad snapped, “My daughter is not marrying an alien.”
“You did, Dad,” I countered and winced when Kaelen bit into my wrist. Whoa! The pain was quickly replaced by raw want as he took my blood. My core pulsed with sudden moisture, and an unbearable ache began to build between my legs. Holy hell! I fought back a whimper.
Need burned in Kaelen’s eyes.
“No hanky-panky,” Dad snapped. “I’ll give him blood, not you.”
Vaguely aware of Dad’s meltdown, I dug my fingers into Kaelen’s shoulder as my pleasure grew and grew. Could I have an orgasm standing up? Phantom fingers stroked my clit and ecstasy cascaded over me. A moan broke from me as my entire body shook, and I literally saw stars. Wowzers!
Kaelen locked his left arm around my hips.“You are so responsive.”
“And I think you’re feeling better.”The toe-curling aftershocks continued to shake me.
If looks could kill, Kaelen and I would be dead.
“No more funny stuff,” Dad repeated.
Was he kidding? I wanted more. A lot more. “Yes, sir.”
“Does the alien still need blood?” Dad asked through gritted teeth.
Kaelen withdrew his fangs from my arm and licked the bite mark. “I do.”
“He does.” Huh? Kaelen was learning English at a rapid pace.
Dad held out his arm. “I used to give your mother blood.”
“You honor me,” Kaelen said and took his arm.
Jake watched in horror as Kaelen drank from my father. “He a friggin’ vampire!”
