He held a hand out with his palm up but kept his eyes fastened on mine. When I accepted, he helped me to his lap and I straddled him, causing my dress to ride up to my waist, exposing my thong.

“You good?” he asked.

When I nodded, he shook his head.

“Words, sweetheart. Let me get them.”

“I’m good.”

“Can I feed from you?”

“Yes.”

Slowly his fingers moved down the side of my throat and my skin warmed all over when he traced the line of my pulse, scraping it with a blunt fingernail.

“You’re nervous as fuck, beautiful. I can hear your heart beating all crazy. I feel that shit too. I like it.”

“I’m fine.”

“Yeah you are.” His mouth tilted right before he leaned closer. The first contact was his lips, which surprised me because they were warm. His tongue followed as he pressed a kiss to my skin just below my ear, then lower. Several more followed before I felt the light touch of his hand between my thighs. He grazed my pussy with a featherlight touch before two of his thick fingers slipped beneath my thong, dipping inside.

“Shit…” I moaned, arching my back because my pussy clamped him tightly as he pulled back and thrust in again, starting a slow plunge that had my muscles tight and my body tingling.

“Tell me what I need to hear.”

His teeth grazed my neck and I almost came.

“Yes…” I ground my hips on his hand. Bite me. “Please.”

The warmth of his breath on my skin preceded the sharp pressure that only lasted a few seconds before a wave of heat flooded through me, causing me to gasp and grab his shoulders to brace myself.

The feeling crawled down my neck, moved through my chest into my stomach then my arms and legs. I arched my body into his while he fucked me deeply with his hand. The other moved to my head, where he gripped my locs firmly enough to cause a spike of pain at my scalp.

I moaned as he drank from me, sucking softly at my throat. Each pull sent another rush through me, making my stomach flip and my pussy to clench around his fingers, thumping with need. The room began to tilt and my vision blurred as an orgasm rolled over me fast and hard. It was so strong my body ached from how tightly my muscles locked. I had no idea how long I was floating. Shit, a lifetime could have passed before I felt the void of him. His mouth was no longer on me but returned seconds after by way of the warmth of his tongue gliding over my skin.

“Breathe, sweetheart,” he murmured against my throat with amusement laced in his deep tenor. “I don’t want you to pass out.”

I laughed in a mildly deranged way because that was how I felt. What the fuck was that?

My skin was hot, my pulse fluttered uncontrollably, and my body was weightless. When my eyes focused on his dark brown orbs, he tilted his chin, doing a visual sweep of my face like he was confused.

“What’s wrong?” Rushed from my mouth but his frown deepened as he looked down. His veins were glowing. You could barely see it but traces of orange moved from his fingers under his skin up to his forearms.

I rushed off his lap and stumbled to get my balance.

“Hold up. Where you going?” he growled, sounding agitated.

“Home. We’re done, right? Shit, yeah we’re done,” I said, feeling panicked when I noticed the veins in my hands were glowing just like his.

What the hell was this?

I felt him behind me but didn’t look back. I ran out of the room, heading straight to the elevator when I didn’t see Nee. She had to be in one of the suites but I wasn’t about to ruin her night. We had taken a ride share so she could get one when she was done. I had to get the hell up out of this club to figure out what was going on.

Luckily, when I opened my iDrive app, it showed several available vehicles in the parking lot. They were all luxury black options, which meant a twenty dollar ride was going to cost me triple, but I didn’t care. Not even a minute after I scheduled the ride, it was accepted and one of the black SUV’s pulled to the front of the club.

I checked the driver’s picture in the app along with the license plate, verifying it was my ride before I quickly climbed into the back seat, barely acknowledging the driver because my mind was moving a mile a minute. I needed to get my ass home and figure out why that vampire had my veins glowing.

Or did I have his glowing?
