“So how then?” she asks.
I can’t help but let heat flare inside of me.
For a second, I see my reflected redness in her eyes, a brief pulsation that I have to grit my teeth and force down before anyone notices.
“We have sex,” I say. “With me wearing the amulet. It has to be on the anniversary of its creation, which is in two weeks’ time.”
“Two weeks,” she murmurs. “What a crazy coincidence, you finding me just in time.”
“No,” I say fiercely. “Even if this makes me sound old-fashioned, I don’t think coincidence had anything to do with it. I think something led me to that rooftop on that specific night when the wind was just right to bring your scent to me.”
“Me too,” she whispers, just as fiercely as me, my perfect equal. “And really, Torsten, if anybody’s allowed to sound a little old-fashioned, I think you qualify. But …”
“What?” I urge when she trails off.
“Well, I know I’m strong enough. But do you think you’ll be able to wait two whole weeks?”
I lean forward, staring into her eyes, reading the playfulness and the banter there.
“Oh, so you can wait, can you?” I grin, baring my teeth and feeling my fangs flare for a moment. With an effort, I retract them. “There’s no part of you that wants me to take you to a hotel this evening? There’s no part of you that’s starving just as badly as I am? Because I want to wait, too. I want to wait until I know I can put a child inside of you. But I don’t know if I’m that strong.”
She makes a soft whimpering noise.
“Is it safe?” she whispers.
“I don’t know,” I growl. “I’ve never had sex with a human before. All I know is I would die before I hurt you.”
“You’ve never … really? In all these years?”
I shake my head.
“You’re the only woman that’s ever interested me. Hell, that’s an understatement. Obsessed me, captivated me. You’re the only woman I’ve ever felt like I needed to take, claim, hard, over and over again.”
“I want that,” she says softly, a quiet song of lust in her voice. “And I’d be lying if I said …”
She trails off.
“No, it doesn’t matter. I don’t want to sound like a slut.”
A deep tremor quakes through me, a tremor that hits something deep and primal inside of me. I want to find whatever asshole told her that she couldn’t express herself sexually and cave his face in.
“You would never be a slut to me, Tammy,” I snarl. “We belong together. We’re dedicated to each other. You should feel free to explore your sexuality. What were you going to say?”
She looks at me bravely now.
“Just that, you know, it might be sort of amazing to do it when you’re still a vampire. Before we begin our life together … as mortals.”
“As mortals,” I say softly. “Now you’re beginning to sound like me.”
“Is that such a bad thing?” she sasses.
My eyes smolder into hers, and it takes all the self-restraint I possess not to flip this table and grab her shoulders, lead her to the balcony railing and bend her over.
I remember how tight and pink and wet her pussy was.
Something in me shudders.
I need her.
And I can’t wait any longer.
Chapter Ten
Tammy
His hand is a controlled fire on the small of my back as he leads me down the private corridor toward the penthouse suite of the hotel. I glance at him and see the red veins pulsating in his throat, as though he can hardly contain the feed, the lust, the need.
My body is a shimmering isle of luxuriating sensations, my nipples tingling against my bra and my panties hot and sticky. My heart beats a tune of anxiety and tries to throttle this moment, but I won’t let it, can’t let it ruin what we’re going to experience together.
He makes a snarling, growling noise as he pushes the door open, revealing a plush-carpeted hallway that leads to a living room straight out of a regency drama. With its landscape paintings and regal furniture, I feel like I’ve stepped back in time, but I don’t have long to admire the palatial surroundings because Torsten’s hands are on my shoulders.
He spins me to him, his face tight, his icy blues blazing fiercely.
“Fucking hell,” he groans. “Do you have any idea how sexy you look right now? That dress, Tammy. Your fucking curves.”
A squeal of delight escapes me as his powerful hand pounds against my ass, and then he squeezes tightly, rubbing the place he just spanked as his eyes sear into me and his skin begins to shimmer carmine.
His whole body is pulsating beneath the night-blackness of his suit, his fangs pointed and sharp as he gazes at me, a beast in full hunt, unable to stop himself now.
