squirm against him to get
more comfortable. I am not going to fuck him. I am sorely tempted just to get
back at CK but that wouldn’t be fair to Cole. He places his large hands on my
hips to steady me as I push his head to the side, fangs already down. He groans
in pleasure and tightens his grip as I sink my fangs into his neck. Taking my
fill I lick his wounds and then my lips.
    “Do you want me to please you?” he murmurs huskily and again
I really want to but shake my head. I kiss him softly and say, “No, but thank
you.” I climb off him. Feeling more in control now I pick up the Scotch and the
cigarettes and head back to the castle to find my sire.
     
     
    I find him in his bedroom. He’s changed out of the dusty
jeans and t-shirt into sweats and a vest. Also in black. I have to say as much
as he rocks the expensive suit look, he does casual so much better. Maybe I
just think that because I don’t usually see him dressed down. I cast my eyes
around the room and yes, there they are. In three’s. He remembered. I relax a
tiny bit.
    He seems surprised to see me and says, “I didn’t think I
would see you so soon. Did Ramon not find you?” He keeps his distance from me.
    “Yes he did. Thank you.” He nods at my gratitude and peers
at me. “No, I didn’t fuck him,” I add thinking that must be what he is after.
    Looking relieved he comes closer. “Are you, okay?” he asks
hesitantly.
    “Depends what you mean by okay?” I snap, remembering
everything I was trying to forget. “That was two major fucking bombs CK, I’ll
give you that.”
    He looks slightly abashed, “Sorry.”
    “Are you? I don’t understand. Why would you tell me this
now? Especially the last part.”
    “Aefre, you have gone around for the last millennium
thinking I didn’t care about you enough to want to commit to you. In a public,
‘everybody-knows’ sense. I started off thinking that our Vampire bond was
enough, but it didn’t seem to be enough for you. You wanted me on a level I
couldn’t quite comprehend. That I didn’t want to comprehend. I didn’t want you
so reliant on me because I knew I would hurt you. How could I not? You were so
sweet and innocent and I was a disillusioned, dark soul with depravities you
wouldn’t even know existed. You were the light of my life, Aefre, when I met you.
You still are. No one else has even come close to what I feel for you and they
never will.” He sits heavily on the bed while I stand there fiddling with my
charms. “This. All of this,” he says as he waves his arm about indicating this
afternoon, “I never wanted any of this. You pushed me in that infuriating way
of yours. I was happy to let sleeping dogs lie. But it became apparent that it
needed to be said. That you needed me to show you I wasn’t some heartless
bastard. That I did have plans for us. Twice. What I said about the baby. Your
baby. I should never have told you that. It wasn’t fair. I am sorry.”
    My baby. My baby. My baby that would have been born to a
weak mother and a vicious father in a world where even if it had survived the
pregnancy, life was so uncertain. No, I didn’t want children, not with him and
probably not with anyone.
    “What was your plan, Constantine? If you knew and still
wanted me to come away with you and turn me. What was your plan?”
    He looks afraid that I would ask him that and says,
“Honestly I don’t know. I thought of not telling you and turning you anyway. I
even for a second thought about telling you and letting you have it and then
turning you after. But I was so sure you wouldn’t want me to after. I don’t
know, Aefre.”
    I nod, taking it all in. “You didn’t trust me to choose
you,” I state and he can’t quite believe I voiced his fear.
    “Would you have?” he asks earnestly.
    “I don’t know. I do know that I never wanted a child. Not
with him. Even if we went away together I would still be forever linked to him,
reminded of him every day. I didn’t want
