Impressions of Three Men in Black - A Poly!Volturi Kings tale

Celeste has her night with Caius. She feared him the most, unsure about his personality and self-control, but he turned out to be a caring lover and an expert on wartime history. Aro, on the other, is proving to be a pain in Celeste's butt, and she decides to go to Marcus for advice.

Chapter Nine

More vampire/human smut alert

Jealousy does not mean "I Love You"

oooooooooooooooooooooooo

"Caius, don't you dare cast aspersions on Marcus. He's a very dear man, helping me to adjust to this insanity." Celeste knew not everything was peaceful in this relationship, but she wanted it to be as equitable as possible, hoping the jealousy would eventually dial down. "I won't entertain any insults about him."

"Not even in jest?" Caius teased.

"Not even in jest," she replied firmly. "As for Aro, he is many things, but not a rake."

If there was to be any trouble, it would come from Aro or Caius. If Marcus was experiencing any issues with sharing Celeste, he never mentioned it. Perhaps because of his lengthy mourning for Didyme, their budding relationship was less urgent to the ancient vampire.

"All right, love. I will defer to you. Now, shall we?" Caius placed his arm around Celeste, eager to have her alone with him.

"Do you want to come to my room, Caius?" Celeste asked her mate as they headed for the hall that led to the bedrooms.

Caius didn't want to say anything to her, but he really didn't relish having Aro's scent floating around him. He assumed it still permeated her room. "No, my love, let's go to my room. There will be more space for us there."

It was true, Celeste's room was smaller, but it had the two doors leading out to the patio, therefore a nice cross-breeze. She liked the brightness of the morning sun streaming through those doors, waking her naturally.

Leading Celeste to the privacy of his own room, Caius allowed his mate to look around. He didn't have much with him here, but he planned to show her more about himself when they returned home to Volterra.

Pulling her into his arms, he nuzzled her neck. "It's my turn now, sweetheart."

"Sweetheart. That's a very human affectation I don't hear from any of you, Caius."

"If you don't like it, I can choose another." He kissed her several times, tasting the sweetness of her breath.

"No, I like it. I like the way it rolls off your tongue," she replied, gazing at him. Part of her feared he would be more into the taking of pleasure from her, he wouldn't be gentle. So far, he seemed opposite of that. Still, she had this gut feeling Aro would not like what Caius would do to her.

Celeste looked over her mate, feeling bolder than she had been with Aro. Caius was dressed in dark blue jeans and a thin grey sweater, looking more like a member of this time rather than someone who was a three thousand year old vampire. She smiled peering at him, saying, "Good enough to eat." She embraced him around the waist and kissed him deeply. She thought she heard a low sound coming from Caius' chest. It sounded like...a cat purring. Did that mean he was enjoying what she was doing to him? She had a lot to learn about these vampire mates of hers.

Reaching under his sweater, Celeste started to remove it, pulling it over her mate's head. She threw it at a chair that sat in the corner.

Caius waited to see what his mate had in mind. He had expected he'd need to slowly entice her, make her feel comfortable with him. Apparently, that wasn't going to be necessary. His arms drew her against him, his chest bare and cold.
