Which he didn’t like, seeming to swallow down what he wanted to say and reach for patience. “It’s sort of an experiment of how I could push myself if I drank from you. I want to—it’s not selfish, but it’s—I planned to tell you if I could accomplish what I wanted to.”
Fair enough. No one liked to be pushed early when they weren’t sure.
I stood and extended my hand to him, glad when he accepted it. Then I headed towards my tower, noticing how he let go of my hand and moved his to my lower back as if escorting me on a date or something.
I waited until we were in my tower and off to the side before facing him. “If you’re looking for some sort of reaction from me, you should realize it won’t be what it normally could be given my current state of mind.”
He nodded. “I think that’s why I want it now. You’re overloaded and numb, so it will be just blood to you, not a connection.”
Right, since he didn’t like me. It made sense.
I tilted my head and offered him my neck, something the predator in him really liked. “Take what you want from me, Tian. Thank you for protecting me once again and handling what I couldn’t. I give this freely and don’t feel pressured or cornered at all.”
“Good,” he sighed. “Good, thank you.”
He moved his hand to my hip and leaned in, pressing his body closer than needed but not obscenely so. His fangs cut into my skin and he took several long drinks before licking his bite closed.
Tian was breathing heavy and kept his hand where it was before resting his forehead on my shoulder.
I should have reacted. Normally, I would have to such a handsome man touching me and being this close, treating me like this.
But I only felt cold. Not numb like my breakdown, but… Yeah, cold.
“I’m sorry,” I whispered, feeling bad that I didn’t react or act affected. “I just feel cold inside.”
He nodded but then raised his head, meeting my gaze. “I have felt the same many times over my long life. It is something specific for us who are introverts when we are wounded too deeply. Tell your husband that.” He nodded when I frowned. “I would want to know that of my partner so I could help them how they needed.”
“Okay.” I agreed because there was no reason not to and I was pretty sure he wanted me to experience what I did for a reason.
But I didn’t say anything. Instead, I went to bed feeling cold inside. Kristof joined me and I knew he wanted to be intimate, seeming almost desperate to have me for some reason. I wasn’t sure why and I didn’t care enough to ask.
Not right then. It was horrible, but I just couldn’t.
I barely slept, waking with the sun still even if I needed hours more rest. I saw the worried look Kristof gave me and nodded that I agreed, but for right then… What could I do? I was kind of just proud that I didn’t have a breakdown. Low bar for life, but given what had happened… I wasn’t wrong to be happy I was still in one piece.
Even if cold inside.
We arrived at breakfast and there were a lot of people there watching me with worried looks as if waiting for me to shatter. It was hard to handle and overwhelming. I just wanted to get my food and retreat.
Instead, James found me and made it clear that I couldn’t run from him.
“You didn’t feed from me last night again,” he whispered, moving in closer and sniffing my hair. “I’m worried about you, My Princess.”
I snorted and pulled away. “I’d be dead inside if I was okay. I’ll manage and figure it out with the man who actually loves me.”
He grabbed my arm and moved me back to him. “I do love you. I don’t—hurting you was…” He let out a slow breath and cupped my face so I had to look at him. “I love you, Inez. I want to help too. Whatever you need, okay? Just tell me what you want and I’ll do it, I’ll give it to you.”
I raised an eyebrow at that. “Whatever I want? No accusing me of games or being mean?”
“No. None,” he promised. “I was a jerk.” He kissed my forehead. “Tell me what you want, Inez. I’ll do whatever you want.”
Too much was happening inside of me at once and I maybe lost what was left of my mind. I stared at his pretty golden eyes and some part of me just snapped.
I knelt down in front of him and yanked down the front of his running pants as I did. Ignoring that the dining hall was packed or who was there, I grabbed his dick and stroked it before biting his thigh right by his groin. I drank deeply from him as I kept working his cock. He held my head to him and orgasmed again and again.
Until I stopped, some of his cum hitting me on the neck as I leaned back and stared up at him.
Shock was in his glazed-over eyes and I saw the predator in him as he clearly liked what I just did.
