Strangely I felt no great fear...A tremor from seeing the unbelievable, yes, but the unbelievable was standing in front of me.Grasping the offered hand I squeezed it with my full strength, amazed that the vision in front of me was real....and very, very strong.

Lilly's words rang true...The taste in my mouth that evening in the park was blood...but not my own, and I knew it. The tales of the horrible blood sucking creatures came to my mind and I wondered...

*Have I become one of them?*

The answer came to my mind quickly,*NO...not yet*... and I raised my eyes in question as it did, looking into Lilly's once again.

"I have drank your blood, that explains my ability to heal so quickly and never be sick, I guess" I acknowlegded slowly, looking at the full lips that covered the long...fangs?

"And the fact I'm standing here alive and unharmed means that you either have no wish to hurt me, or no ability, doesn't it?"

Lilly stood strangely quiet, her gaze looking at me as if she could see into my mind...and with a start I knew she could...as she had stated so obviously at my house...

*I'm not terrified of you, more curious* I concentrated and thought, testing her ability to "see" my thoughts.

Then suddenly another thought crept into my mind...And I nearly smiled at the thought of it...

"You're as scared of me as I am of you" I said in astonishment

 

[Sweetp4u]

Lily

"Yes, you heal and never get sick because of my blood you drank. But I did not take from you and give it back a large enoug amount to make you my kind. You may live a little longer, into 100's but that's it. You will still grow old, and die...." I didn't even wince as he squeezed my hand, for he was strong, but not as strong as I was. He could not hurt me physically. Mentally yes, break me in half if he knew how. But I didn't dwell on it.

*I'm not terrified of you, more curious*

*I know you aren't terrified, or you would be gone by now* My voice was heard in his mind and I spoke aloud.
"Ever since you took my blood, or I should say I gave my blood to you, I can hear your thoughs.. But the park wasn't the first time. The night after your 16th birthday, you became sick with pneumonia, you were in the emergency room at the hospital running a high fever. I then too gave you a few drops of blood to heal you." My eyes searched his face once again, still worried what he would do with the knowledge I just gave him. He held me in the palm of his hand.. Did he know this? I was uncertain.

He all too quickly came got the realization I was afraid of him. In more ways than one.
"Yes Eric.. I am afraid of you.." I shivered a little from the coldness creeping over me before I warmed up again. I moved towards him, eyes holding..
*but not in the way you think Eric... I care for you.. enough to risk everything to protect you. keep you happy with or without me. You know who and what I am.. that is more power than any has EVER had over me.. I am attached to you, almost as if my life depended on it. And that is frightening. No one has touched me in centuries, and yet you hold my hand.. I almost forgot what it was like to be touched..*
I held his gaze as I let our minds touch and allowed him to hear my thoughs. The more blood he took from me, the more powers he would obtain. Including knowing where I am at all times, what I am thinking and feeling. I hadn't given him too much yet, just enough to sense my presence when ever I was close. But then again he never knew so he always just felt as if someone was watching him.
"Aren't you afraid? disgusted in knowing what I am? Knowing I drink the blood of human's to survive? My bite won't kill you, a teaspoon of blood holds me for three months. I am old enough know I dont have to do it often. I can even live on the blood of animals.. As I have been doing while living near you. Not wanting anyone to guess or know what I am.. Why I am up here alone.. Towns folk don't know me. Only my butler's I change every 3 years." My eyes held his letting him know I spoke the truth..
"You just open your mind to me Eric, and you will know what I speak is true.. just try it and see?"

 

[truthpurveyor]

I heard her words clearly...and the meaning behind them hit me almost as if a physical blow would.

"Disgusted, Lilly?" I repeated her question aloud "I glory in the hunting of animals, kill them and eat thier flesh. What you do is to survive, correct?"

No words of denial, only her plea that she spoke the truth and suddenly a surge of adrenalin went thru me...

Concentrating I opened my mind...and found it was much easier to reach out and touch hers, this time...

My thoughts were open to her...and I knew she could see and feel what I had told her were more than just words...they were the truth as well.

*I'm not disgusted, nor afraid...not anymore* I told her with my lips closed, looking into her eyes...

Then a strange thing began to happen...I began to "feel" her thoughts, sentences came to me from her, then phrases and suddenly images of what she was thinking...and what she had seen in the past....as if I were there.

*Lilly, COME to me* I told her, my lips still not moving as the thoughts I saw in her mind told me she spoke the truth.

*Come out of the shadows and come to me*

I was in her mind, and not only seeing her thoughts, feelings and memories...I could control her...and then suddenly...


I was out, standing directly in front of Lilly, looking into her frightened eyes...her fangs exposed as she tried to decide if she needed to defend herself...

"Lilly...I am sorry" I stuttered in apology "The RUSH....The sensation of being WITH you....It overcame me as I knew I could..."

I stopped talking then, looking at her as I knew what she was so afraid of...it was me....

"Isn't it?" I asked her quietly. "You're afraid of how I might hurt you..."

 

[Sweetp4u]

Lily

"I hunt only to survive Eric.. Never for pleasure." I felt him opening up to me, to himself. It sent tingles down my spine and aprehension at the same time. I shifted nervously back and forth on my feet. Wondering what he would do now? He could touch his mind with me, I felt him reaching towards me with it. Our souls would touch in that same instant, and I knew I would be lost. No longer in control over myself and my own fate. I had to make sure that did not happen.
I rushed him, I knew I did. He wasn't ready for this. He wasn't ready for me. But I could not stand it any longer, the waiting was driving me insane. Waiting for my chance to touch him, teach him and yes hold him.
He finally reached me, I felt it wash over me. I felt his mind brush mine as he probed inside. No longer safe Lily. I knew I was now vulnerable again.
*I'm not disgusted, nor afraid...not anymore*
His words rang true as my mind met his in the darkness. I shivered again as my eyes closed a little. I knew he was opening doors that had been closed for awhile now. reading my thoughts and feelings from birth til now he would see all of what I had seen and felt.
Shivers passed over me as I felt his strength take hold and start to bend me to his mind. I was the stronger one here in body, but in mind he was dominate over me now. Fear rushed over me, unfamiliar sensations coursed through me. I felt defensive for a moment and my fangs came out as I backed away from his dominance over me.
I halted a moment, uncertain of what to do. He wouldn't hurt me would he? Part of me wanted to bend to him, let him in and go to him. The other, the alone soul for centuries wanted to run and hide in fear of being hurt beyond healing. Forever walking the earth with an emotional pain that would never heal.

"Lilly...I am sorry..........The RUSH....The sensation of being WITH you....It overcame me as I knew I could..."

My defenses dropped again, He was knew to this. He hadn't been taught. But all those feelings washing through me I felt like an open diary he could just pick up and read at whim. Leaving me again feeling vulnerable and weak. Something I was just not used to.


"Isn't it?......You're afraid of how I might hurt you..." His words rang true in my ears. I was terrified of hurting.
I felt a tear slip down my face, one of crimson color. Proof of what I was.
"I..." I had to gather my thoughts a moment. I did not back down from him but moved forward from the darkness to stand before him. Let him see my tears, Proof I feel. I fear, I ache, and I want and need like any mortal. I just did not age nor die.
"I wanted you and it was wrong of me. I know it was.. But I could not help myself. I gave my blood to you, knowing it would bond us in a way. I would forever know where you were, how you felt. I could come to you if needed. Until now that bond was never made stronger because I never confronted you, never gave you enough to let you in. The night I gave you more than I should have at the park.. I knew I had to keep my distance as much as possible.. because I knew once your stronger soul knew what you could do.. you could easily rule me. It is frightening Eric, but it is of my own making. I am afraid of pain and hurting.. Becuase unlike you, I am not free to go out and find a new love to heal with. I wont die and I will always remember.. I took a big chance coming near you last night, but It was like I was driven to do it. I couldn't wait any longer." I fell quiet. There was so much to say to him, so much and yet fear crept over me again.
"You have more power over me than anyone ever has had.. And it is a little scary yes. Around me long enough and the more you are inside my head, the more knowledge you will gain..... And you will know all there is to know about me, and so much more.."

 

[truthpurveyor]

"Lilly, This is coming so fast for me" I told her honestly "You're a vampire, but not the common misconception like I've seen in every movie. I believe many things about you now, that I wouldn't have before you let me touch your mind. There is still a part of you that is very much human, and this is the part that tells me not to fear you"

*It was the truth...In the few seconds....minutes? that we were linked I saw how vulnerable she was to me and how utterly lonely she was as well, just as I was. But for her it had lasted centuries...not just a matter of short years, as I had gone through*

"Lilly, you spoke of a deal...For thirty days I would stay with you, and at the end of that time I would make a decision...But you tipped the odds, when you allowed me to see into your mind, and I know what my choices are to be at the end of the time you specified."

Stepping closer to her I was not only able to make out her blue eys, but what thoughts lay behind them as I approached her.

"You were going to leave me alive, but devoid of every memory of our time together, to insure that you would not be found out. But now that option is lost to you, as even with the one contact of our minds I equal you in the mental strength to do so. Have my options changed as well? If I tell you no, what will you do now?"

I had mentally pictured a wall as I spoke, one that would hold back anyone that tried to break thru it and would attempt to prevent Lilly from reading my thoughts. She hadn't guessed what the small leather case contained, nor the intent with which I had brought it with me, I knew that from the scattered thoughts I had brushed against in my first link with her.

"Tell me what options I have now, Lilly, and then let me touch your mind again to see that you spoke the truth"

 

[Sweetp4u]

Lily

I stepped back a moment and really thought about it. His words and his meaning. I sighed, I didn't need to read his thoughts or him mine.
"Simple choice Eric, leave or stay and find out. Since I can not erase your mind anymore I put my faith in you not to harm me.. For no matter what you do to me, I could never harm you." I felt the ache build inside me, and pain. But it was true. As much as I wanted to be safe, I would never risk his life for my own happiness. And if he left what happiness would there be?
I didn't put up any walls, I let him inside my mind freely, let him know for certain I would never harm him.
"I would never control you, never harm you.. By the end of the thirty days I am asking for, you are free to choose. Stay or go.. If you choose to stay you can remain as you are, or become what I am. I would never force either, but I do ask for a chance to show you. I am not promising never to argue or disagree. But I am promising to show you how much I do love you.." I inhaled deeply feeling scared at the same time anxiety. What would he choose? I wouldn't push him into anything, I even made sure to point out the size of this house and his freedom to come and go from it without answering to anyone but himself. The seconds ticked by as if years as I waited for him to continue this discussion.

 

[truthpurveyor]

Ten seconds....then twenty....then a full minute and I stood there, feeling as she opened her mind for me....to enter her as I chose...Safe to reach inside her most private thoughts and read them, once again...

"NO, I know you're telling me the truth, Lilly" I broke the silence and dropped my own walls "I just wanted to hear you say what I could feel...To see your eyes as you said it"

*I had seen her reaction, when she changed...as the passion came over her for a mere second....but that didn't deter me as I reached for her and drew her to me with my hands this time...not my mind...her body going stiff at my touch, then relaxing as she let me draw her to me....*

"Lilly, I want to make love to you...now, here...where you feel the safest and where you can be what you are" I told her as my lips came closer to hers, my eyes pleading with hers...

"What ever the cost, I want you....now"

 

[Sweetp4u]

Lily

The last thing I expected was him to pull me to him. I stiffed momentarily and then relaxed a little as the feelings of his touch tormented me so. It had been so long since another was brave enough to touch me, I trembled a little frightened of my own strength and of what I was feeling.
"E-Eric? Are you certain?" His lips met mine and all doubt faded from my mind. My hands instantly reached up and cupped his face gently in my palms as our lips feather light met for the first time. My heart thumped loudly in my chest. Yes I had a heart beat, I wasn't dead, merely living forever.
A sigh escaped me as I stepped forward and pressed closer to his heated body. the warmth seeped into my and I wanted to weap with joy and pleasure at the same time. I felt my body shiver a little, my hands left his face and ran lightly down his chest. Spreading my fingers wide I ran them down his ribs and around his back. Pulling myself into his larger frame and sipping the sweetness from his lips.
Now if I could resist the urge to feed while touching. I pulled back a second, my eyes searching his. "I am worried Eric.. What If I bite you?" It was mythed that a human felt pleasure while having sex and being bitten at the same time.. But this I wasn't not sure of since I hadn't been with a human since a few months after I was changed. The hunger controlled me at the time not me controlling it. So I drained the guy completely of his life's blood. I knew I could control it not to do that to Eric, but I still could bite without really thinking about it.
A vampires kiss, sometimes deadly. I was worried and it showed clearly in my eyes. "I dont want to hurt you.."

 

[truthpurveyor]

"I dont want to hurt you.." Her words were a plea...for me to understand....

"No matter what the cost" I told her, my eyes on hers as I pressed the thoughts from my mind to hers, of the last day before I left the house...


*The gun in the leather pouch...it was a gift to me..one I intended to put to good use, and use it on myself...That's why I packed everything and gave it away...because I knew I wasn't coming back, ever....That's why I was going to drive past your house...till fate took over and the truck quit...*

Lilly's eyes widened as she "heard" what I placed in her mind...the feeling of loneliness and desperation that came with it striking a chord in her.

Pressing my lips to hers I slid the robe from her shoulders, this time wanting the beauty beneath it and ALL that came with it...

"Feed from me if you need, you'll not take the life you've saved so often" I told her as I broke the kiss and carressed her bosum...

 

[Sweetp4u]

Lily

I read his thoughts and I felt my heart stop beating. The depression and loneliness over taking my soul at his visions and feelings. He pulled me to him and I fought no more. I wanted to show him there was something worth living for. Love. My robe dropped yet I did not feel chilled at all. Heated was more like it as our lips met. I put all my love into that first kiss, one I hoped he would never forget.
I wanted to take his pain into me, take his anger, loneliness and desperation and aborb it all. Take away that pain and replace it with love. I moaned into his mouth, He was right. I would never take his life, not after saving it so many times. My hands lifted his shirt up and eased inside. My fingertips brushed against his skin and heat shot up my arms to my center. I felt the answering ache inside for more.
I moved suddenly, placing my arms around his neck and pushing up tightly against him. My breasts pushed into his chest as our groins met. I did not want to stop, I wanted this for so long. To feel him, be part of him. Show him everything I could fulfill inside him he found lacking.
our lips broke apart and I stepped back. "Let me?" I reached for his shirt lifting it over his head. Once I got it free of his body I tossed it aside, then reached for his pants. I had to feel him, skin to skin. All these years of waitingseemed to make this moment worth waiting for. I was so unsure but excited, fearful but calm, I shook. But i quickly got control of my hands.
"feels like I have never done this before.." I smiled a little nervously. I managed to get his pants undone before I pressed my naked breasts to his chest and kissed him once more. yes, that fire was there and spreading further by the second. Lust, love, desire.. All took over at once, could not distinguish one from the other. I gripped him to me and slowly walked backwards towards the bed until my legs hit the raised platform.
"There is a time for nice and a time for lust.. Which do you desire Eric? Let me fulfill your every desire.." I smiled and waited to see which he would choose. Could not go wrong with either.

 

[truthpurveyor]

Each place her skin met mine was an enigma...The flesh was cool...then quickly warmed...then changed to fire as she held herself against me...

Her firm, youthful breasts...Her flat stomach with the alluring tickle of her pubis...All became small hot spots that grew in intensity, making me want her more....and more.

Her hands brushed my skin as each piece of clothing was removed and discarded, leaving me as vulnerable as she was...

"There is a time for nice and a time for lust.. Which do you desire Eric? Let me fulfill your every desire.."

Following her as she led us to her bed, I took a serious moment to consider her words...asking myself was I sure?

"Let's find out" I replied with fervor, pressing my lips to hers as we fell to the bed...

We fell to the bed...Telling myself to go slow...it had been a long time for her and her NEED was so intense...so urgent, I wanted her to remember it and be pleased, as if it were her first..

No words were spoken, none were needed...as our bodies warmed to each others touch so did our minds...a gentle melding of souls....that began to form a bond of urgent desires...

 

[Sweetp4u]

Lily

i smiled as he agreed, wanting to find out for himself as much as for me. We fell as one to the bed, our lips meeting. That kiss sent ripples of desire through my body, a moan escaped me but I didn't notice. His mind and mine slowly met, caressing each other it felt almost as if we were one instead of two seperate entities. My arms wrapped around his shoulders, and my fingers toyed with the baby soft hairs on the back of his neck. My tongue grazed the seam of his lips and begged entry.
So many things swormed over me, it had been so long. I was on cloud nine trying to gather my thoughts that just werent there.
"Touch me Eric." I pleaded softly, my own hands trailing up and down his back. Caressing all I could reach, I parted my thighs a little further and cradled him between their silky embrace.
I felt him probing my mind, but did not worry about it this time. How could I? All I could do was feel, felt like the first time in my long exsistance I felt something so tender, so ..... words failed me. It was if he was my other half. We fit perfectly together, from head to toe.
My eyes caught his as my finger tips traced along his jaw and down his neck. My lips parted slightly as I panted in and out. Watching the changing emotions over his features at my cooler touch. I wiggled a little under him, my nipples brushing his chest and I moaned again.
Electricity burned through me. Shooting tingles of awareness that made everything ache to be touched teased or kissed. I moved again, this time rocking my lower half against him. I grinned a little naughty grin as my wet folds encountered his hardness. I paused all movement, the head was hot and pressing just barely against me. "Oh my.." I exclaimed in wonderment. It felt like a branding iron touching my skin, yet did not hurt.
My nails lightly dug into his back before I relaxed a little and slid further down to his ass. Again his mind touched mine, and my heart pounded loudly in my ears. Every inch of my body was aware of his, nothing was left hidden from him. It was scary and it was making me wetter than hell.
"God! this feels..... Oh I have no words for this.. please? Dont stop! I love this sensation.. what ever it is.." I was confused but wanting more. Every motion spoke loudly of that fact.

 

[truthpurveyor]

Eric

Outside, A storm began to brew as our bodies met, each cool portion of her body creating heat and passion that grew quickly with each feather light touch. Inside a greater tempest was forming as our minds melted into each others, forming an erotic blend of emotions both past and present…

"Touch me Eric." Her endearing words reached me..as her cool body lit a tiny fire in each place she touched me.

"Lilllllllly" I moaned her name as I reached out with my mind to hers, feeling her accept me in body and in soul. Each small fire now had begun to spread...and grow in intensity as I returned her gentle, tentative kisses with my own, feeling her hands creep behind my neck and tickle it with her carress.

*Lilly was much like a virgin, the sensations and feelings coming to her so forgotten* I knew in my heart as my lips caressed her rapidly awakening body…

The melding of our minds and now the completion of the union with our bodies was becoming intense…as each touch of our bodies reverberated thru her mind and into mine, amplifying the emotions and pleasure I already felt…

“Lilly, I can feel your pleasure thru your mind” I whispered to her ear as I felt her loins press against my throbbing erection, her heated puss encasing the head of it in their silky lips.
Unbidden I responded, pressing myself deeper into her body and hearing her gasp in response…*Have I hurt her?* I asked myself and then heard her own thoughts in my mind as she replied…

“No Eric…It has been so long, is all…. too long”

Nodding, I knew words were not needed for us to understand each other any longer as I kissed her neck gently…thinking to her…

“Then let us make up for wasted and lonely times, and give each other what we’ve both longed for so badly”

Sliding my hands to the back of her strong thighs, I cupped her buttocks, pulling her to me to meet each thrust as our loving began…

 

[Sweetp4u]

Lily

the raw open emotion was amazing, even to myself. I was never too sure we would meld this way together. But the instant he slid inside my body, it was a welcoming home sensation. I felt as if our spirits touched and became one unto the same.
Moaning out, I clutched him to me, not wanting to seperate for even a moment.
I could sense all of him opening to me as all of my doors were opening to him. I had nothing more to hide from him. He had all of me in an instant. This was not lust, but love. I was showing him my love in the last possible way I could. I cherished this, I cherished him. It was a little hard at first, Not being touched in so long. But it did not take long before the intense pleasure took hold over me and No more rational thoughts came to mind.
*make love to me Eric, let me make love to you..* I moaned out, not sure if it was words or thoughts but I knew he felt or heard them.
My heart pounded fiercely in my chest, my hands never stayed still in one place. My lips trailing over all the skin I could reach. The hunger did not over take me, this was something deeper. Something lasting that seemed to never want to end.
We kept going, slowly, with a purpose in mind. But not to sure exactly that purpose was at this moment. It wasn't to finish for the feelings were too intense to want to stop now.
He asked me if I was alright, I nodded my head moaning out his name once more. It had been so long since another touched me, this was almost something new to me.
I had forgotten what touching was like in this manner, what real emotions were like. Other than what I felt, now I felt all of his. I tightened around him, climbing to that precipe within moments, but seemed like years.
"Oh my Eric.. I-I'm.. oooooh yesssssss!" I hissed out as my muscles spasmed again and again as he rocked with me. Faintly Yet again I felt it rising over and over again. his body heat warming mine, his mind comforting me as his arms held me tight. There was nothing to compare to this. I knew that, and I accepted it. The circle was complete now. The only fear left was he would leave me in death. I did not let that invade my mind. I was not going to bring up him changing into what I was.
Not now, this was something no words were needed, no fears, no nothing but this moment.
My lips met his in a searing soul screaming kiss, our bodies dancing perfectly in unison.. An aged old song that kept playing forever the same. But each time different, new meaning. Sighing with pleasure, I asked him to cum with me. I wanted to feel his warmth inside..

 

[truthpurveyor]

Eric

There was no mad rush of passion, rather a slow mutual exploration of each other bodies...souls...and minds. Each touch brought a multitude of tiny pleasures, each pleasure echoing and growing in the others mind as we continued our love making.

"Love" I heard myself thinking with a start..."It's become this so quickly, and with such intense feeling..."





"Oh my Eric.. I-I'm.. oooooh yesssssss!" Lilly's words cut into my thinking and her passion washed over me, in body...and into my very core....my soul.

"Yessssss, my Love" I moaned to her, clasping her body to mine as I buried myself in her heated loins, and began my "death dance"...my hips matching hers thrust for gentle thrust as I released into her.


For long minutes I held my body over hers looking at the figure that lay beneath me so quietly, her eyes closed in the relaxed atmosphere that comes to satisfied lovers, my skin touching her heated flesh but not crushing it, wanting to preserve the tenderness we had just shared....forever....

"Forever..." I mouthed the words and then wondered at the meaning...the implications of what might be....IF....

*Lilly, is this what we will be able to share...forever.....IF* I thought in my mind, aware that I no longer needed to speak to be heard...and still awed at the way her eyes slowly opened as she answered me....

 

[Sweetp4u]

Lily

A shoft shudder ripped from the very depths of me as he warm seed burst forth into my colder body. It felt as if I was finally in heaven, a sigh and a smile, I lay content. Holding him in my arms, a precious comodity I never wanted to part with. I read his thoughts, forever.. if.
*yes Love, forever.. If. If you stay with me and choose this gift I have, we will have this forever into enternity.*
I wrapped my arms around him, my lips gently touching his before pulling him to me. I did not move to bite, just to hold.
*think about it, we have all the time in the world.*
I would not rush him. This was not a pleasant gift I bestowed on anyone. It was filled with all kinds of things. Mostly joyous but with the good, always comes bad.
I have seen wars, death, destruction. Over and Over again. And I have seen new era's, better laws passed, birth, love.. But never again the sunrise. With the good always comes the bad too.
*Read my mind, Eric. See all I have seen and felt and learned. There is so much the world offers you, and then there are prices you pay. With love, there is never a price some say, but with others it is more than they can bare.* I held him to me, opening up all of myself for him. Letting him see everything I had seen and learned. All the happiness, and pain. And the centuries alone. Looking for that one. The one who would make me whole, and I would make him whole. But that search took forever to some, only a small amount of time compared to my life span.
*I've been searching, for the one. He isn't perfect and he isn't rich. But he can love for enternity and he is strong to support me when I need it, and the same I give back in return. I know it's you I sought Eric, but do you know for yourself?* I leaned back and searched his eyes.
He has to know it for himself, deep inside. That's why I asked for time with him, to see if he will be content with me as I have been here with him?

 

[truthpurveyor]

Eric

Strangely, for me when Lilly pulled her to me I did NOT resist, rather I accepted her embrace and gentle kiss, drawing the love and strength from it that she offered, absorbing it as a parched man recent from the great desert would drink water...


"Lilly, you are a woman of the night and I am a man of the daylight" I confessed to her, trying to put words to the feelings that washed over my soul. "Yet at this moment I would give my soul to you, to guarntee your happiness"

Yet that was not what she needed, I knew from what she had revealed to me in our gentle loving, as she bared all to me...

She wanted and needed a reason for her existence, not just to live, but to taste life and appreciate it's flavors.

And so did I...But doubts flooded me as well, the draw of having such a woman at my side, her love feeding my own, her lust strong enough to satisfy mine as well. But could I satisfy her...I had greeted this day, eager to end it...having given up all hope on a way to live life...and resigned not to drudge thru it day by day without that hope.

And then fate smiled it's quirky face and stepped in, tossing me together with Lilly and laughing as I stumbled to deal with it.

"We will take each day as it comes" I promised her, returning the kiss and carressing her cool flesh "You will show me your world and we will decide if I deserve to join you"

 

[Sweetp4u]

Lily

A bright smile lit my face at his words, he was willing to try and see if he would fit in with me and desired my life. It was alot to ask of someone, but I knew he was the one for me.
"Nothing would make me happier, I will show you all you wish to know and tell you all I don't like to do."
I pulled him to me and rolled, laying on his chest, listening to his heart beat in tune with my own.
There was so much good and so much bad mixed in with it. it just depended on your view of things. I had no idea how he would take it all in, but I knew he would try. He would try for me. I felt my love for him grow even further, tighter. whole.
"It is I who should be deserving, not you. You are everything I knew you would be, without even realizing that. But given time I will show you all the wonderful things there is we can share. I found it dull and lifeless up until now, but there is a whole world out there we could see together. Just you and I."
I felt tired as dawn was approaching fast.
"One thing Eric, you are free to go where ever you wish, but sun light is bad for me. Please do not open the windows in here..." I felt fainter by the second, knowing soon I would literally konk out.
"Sweet dreams Love.. I will see you with the sun set.." I closed my eyes my mind reaching to his, "Brennen will get you anything you desire, even if it's the keys to my car..." I silently fell into a coma like sleep. Still aware, but unable to wake up and move. Well not entirely. I could get up, but it would take all my energy to do so.

For long minutes I held Lilly to me, sensing her mind slowly receding from awareness as she "slept". Gently, I shifted her weight from my chest to the bed below and then pulled a light cover over her nude, resting form, giving her cheek a light kiss.

"I'll be nearby, if you need me" I told her resting form, not sure if she would hear, but wanting to say the words for my benefit as well.

Leaving her room quietly, I admired the collection of antique statues and paintings that Lilly must have collected as the years past.

"Each piece must represent a moment in her life" I told myself as I moved downstairs "A special day, or event perhaps?"

The figure of Brennen appeared without warning from behind me and I smiled...

"I could "feel" you approaching though I couldn't hear you" I told his emotionaless face, then querid him. "Is there a garden, or a quiet place where I can get a breath of air?"

"There is, sir" He nodded soberly, pointing towards a heavily draped door "It is well tended, and has a lovely veiw of the sunrise"

*And I should enjoy them, while I can* I finished the thought as I nodded and moved towards the indicated door, pulling it open and stepping into the cool air.

The garden was well tended, I admitted that wondering if it were done in the day....or night as I found an old metal chair and settled into it, feeling the morning breeze brush my face as the sun rose above the horizon...

I lay in a half asleep half awake dream like state. My mind in turmoil over the things I had decided to do. i answered to no one but myself, and I knew down deep inside That I loved Eric with all I possessed. Nothing could erased that, yet I couldn't help feeling bad for my choices. I showed him myself, all of it, now it was up to him. But was I pressuring him becuase I loved him? To make a descision he shouldn't ever have to make?
I awoke as the sun set, instantly aware of my surroundings. My mind searched out Eric, finding him in the garden still. Just sitting there. My fangs were out, and my body craved food, nurishment. I had to hunt tonight, And that was one part I feared would scare Eric or disgust him. I should know better than that, but I still couldn't help the nagging feelings.
Better to show him now then to show him afterwards. Give him all the knowledge there is with what I am, and let him choose.
*Eric? Did you have a peaceful day Love?*
I rose smoothly, graceful in all movements as I always seemed to float around rooms. i stood before a mirror laughing a little. I cast no reflection, but it amused me to keep it there. My eyes darkened as my senses kicked in. Scent was appealing most of all, I could smell when someone was excited or afraid. growling a little, I ran my hands down my body before dressing in a sheer black sily/lace dress. Flat sandals adorned my feet and my hair was swept up in a french knot. Showing off the graceful arch of my neck. Moving silently downstairs I summoned Brennen with my mind, *fetch me the car please, and Show Eric to the drawing room..* I moved to sit before the fire place, watching the flames dance.

Eric

I felt Lilly awaken...and also felt the hunger that tore at the lining of her very core...burning a hole in her stomach as it cried to be fed.

And strangely, I also felt that hunger...and the desire to go out and satisfy it.

*Eric? Did you have a peaceful day Love?* Came Lilly's gentle inquiry to me, and I answered it with a smile and closed lips...

"Yes, My love, a nearly perfect day...now made that way with you back with us"

The words were not merely a suave reply, I felt nearly complete the instant she had returned to her wakened state...and was immensely pleased her first words were of concern for me.

"No need to have Brennen lead me, my love" I sent to her as I read her thoughts to her faithful servant. "Let me see the image of the location and I will go there, and wait for you"

A picture of the room came to me, along with Lilly's smile and I rose...moving from the rapidly receding light and into the darkened house...eager to see Lilly and continue from where we had left off....

Lily

I smiled, my mind flashing images of the house and the location of the parlor.

It was amazing how quickly he delved into my mind, how easily he knew me and everything I was thinking.

It sent ripples of pleasure over my and sent even more tingles of love. How complicated, yet simple.

I moved to my wardrobe, pulling out a silky white creation that floated around me, yet hugged my form. I left my hair down, no make up was needed. Smiling into the mirror, I seen my k-9's showing clearly and brightly.

My stomach rumbled, it was time to hunt. Did I hunt human or did I settle for cow's blood? I hadn't decided yet. There was no real reason to hunt, but human blood make me stronger with just one sip.

effortlessly I moved down the stairs, moving towards Eric. Moving towards the future. Always putting one foot in front of the other, I wasn't balking in this task set before me.

If I wanted someone with me, with me thurought time.. I had to trust and teach. I trusted, now I needed to teach him.

I moved silently up behind him, but I knew that he knew I was there. My hands ran up over his shoulder blades and wrapped around his chest. I pressed myself up against him ever so lightly and whispered into his ear.

"Did you miss me as much as I missed you?" I smiled, my eyes sparkling with pleasure he was still here with me. I kissed his neck from behind and felt him shiver under my finger tips. Was it my kiss that made him feel good? Or the natural lure of the vampire to any sex?

My voice husky, full of promises yet unfulfilled I moaned into his ear, "It is time for me to feed, will you accompany me tonight and watch? Learn? Or shall I tell you and go alone?" I knew his answer before he replied, but I wanted to hear it from his lips.

I stepped back a moment, as he turned to face me. The contact of my skin on his covered body still made me ache. If I wasn't so hungry I would have shed everything he and I had on. Just to feel that current once again when we touched.

Eric

Smiling, I felt her mind "with" mine...

"I will wait your return" I spoke the words she already knew, yet waited for "And on your lips I will taste the taste of your meal"

Suiting actions to words I moved forward, cupping my hand to her head and watching her nostrils flare, then kissed her gently...making a point of ignoring her k-9's as my lips carressed her own.

"And as we join again, I will feel all that you felt....and see what you have seen, as you fed"

Looking into her eyes, I brushed a strand of hair from her pale face as she nodded.

"You will show me how to hunt and feed, when it is time" I said gently...watching for her approval in her eyes and mind.

*of course Eric, What ever pleases you love.* I smiled and moved out of the parlor. Turning back at the door, I smiled sweetly and then left.

Making my way down to the city park, I was there within minutes. Even walking miles, I moved with this lightening speed when I needed to.

I walked along, enjoying the sights and smells of the beautiful scenery. A cricket sounded somewhere, and an owl hooted some where above me. That is when I spotted him. This older male, around late thrities, walking his dog.

He stopped in his tracks when he spotted me, and smiled a warm welcome. I moved towards him, no words were needed now. I let my scent flare out to him, ease his discomfort, his fears and his desires.

"Walk with me a moment." I softly spoken command and he followed me. Into the bushes, out of sight from passer-bys.

"Come closer please." He moved towards me. His dark whining a little, but I soothed the friend of this man.

I stepped to him, tipping his head to the side, watching as his eyes closed. My fangs sank in and I suckled a little from him. Taking in his life force, his essence. The fluid of life that seperated me from him. I felt the familiar warming come over me. Felt the desire of this man for me, from just the scent and bite alone he was enthralled. It was common, not to be taken as personal feelings. I thought of Eric at that moment, his sweet smiling face. This was something I had never done to him, nor would do.
The man trembled beneath my fingertips and groaned out in passions embrace.

I backed off, biting my fingertip and rubbing his wound. Now we were connected in a way, as with all those before him I fed from. I knew his thoughts as of now and back til he was a wee bairn.

"remember nothing, but solitude and happiness as you walk from me tonight. When you reach home you will feel relaxed and go on forgetting me." he nodded and moved away, his eyes boring into mine. As if trying to capture me for a moment.

My lips were red with blood, and I lapped them with my tongue before moving on. I came across a rather intoxicated young woman, and thought of drinking from her. But something in her scent displeased me greatly. I wasn't sure what it was, but instinct told me not to touch her. So I moved on again.

I moved along darkened streets, hearing those familiar sounds not many would hear. The weeping of a babe, the crying of a lonely woman. The sigh of an elderly man who sat on his porch, missing his dead wife. The howl of a pup somewhere in this town. I heard a squad car a few streets away, driving along looking for a criminal. My pace picked up, I longed to return to Eric, and his embrace.

Something stopped me just a few streets shy of the outskirts of town. A man was walking into his house, bellowing at his wife for a drink. I paused as my head slowly turned towards that house.
I moved and glanced in the window, my body already outside the window, watching. He moved towards his wife and raised his hand as if to hit her. I watched her flinch away from him, afraid. I could smell her fear, and his accelerated heart beat. he was getting off on this.

I felt rage move over me, and yet I remained calm. Not tonight, But I promise you soon.. My thoughts as I faded into the darkness. It was not my place to judge and take life. I hadn't taken a life since I was a young vampire. But this man, his time was coming. And with it vengence. Even if it is making sure he never touched another woman. My mind had that power if I wanted it. I just never took it. Perhaps I would visit his dreams, make him scream out in the night, afraid and helpless feeling.

I walked into my own home, the warmth of the fire's lighting my way towards where Eric sat, silently waiting. I stood, leaning against the door jamb, watching him. I slight smile curved my face as I moved within the dimly light room.

*Come, share with me?* My mind caressing his as my heart beated sure and steady in my breast. The sight of him, here... In my home, did something to me. A primitive feeling almost. A desirable feeling as well. I licked my lips, thinking of tasting him. Not his essence, but his skin. That musky scent I could feel swamping my senses as I approached.

Eric

I sat watching the window...feeling her presence grow stronger by the second and waiting expectantly for her return.

Turning to a slight movement by the doorway I jumped slightly, then smiled.

"You've returned and so quietly. I was trying to reach you, hold contact with you but had lost you, until you were nearly upon me. I felt you move into the park, saw the trees and the dog even. But lost you in a dark haze after that."

Lilly's eyes shone with an eerie light as she moved soundlessly across the floor towards me, her face flushed as her mind touched mine wrapping me in her lust...Lust for my body, I felt it and thrilled to it, remembering our joining of passion earlier, and how our bodies and minds melded.

Melded...and melted, parts of her mind so joined with mine I could barely tell the difference, or want to.

And suddenly my mind was at ease...the decision made as she wrapped her arms around me and kissed me.

"There is no need to wait, Lilly" I sent to her as I returned her kiss, tasting the rich, salty flavor that was still in her mouth...The blood she taken from her "prey" as she had fed on...them?

"I want to join you in your life, be with you eternally, so I will never have to fear losing you and what you mean to me" I finished, letting her know I was ready...and scared.
