My Vampire Mate

On Our Way

Kiera's POV

I was finishing up packing in my room when Daren walked in. It was Sunday morning and we were leaving for Ice Land in an hour. I was so excited, I couldn't wait. Daren says that he has a surprise for me there, but I cant imagine what it could possibly be.

I was sitting on my suitcase trying to zip it for the last 10 minutes and it wasn't budging at all. I huffed and stood up, throwing my hands up in surrender. "I give up!" I say. Daren laughs and walks over to my suitcase. In less than 20 seconds he has it zipped and ready to go. My jaw drops and he just looks at me with a smirk on his face. "Well...I started it for you." I say, trying to take a little bit of credit. Daren chuckles and walks over to me, wrapping me in a hug. "Sure you did baby." he says and kisses my nose.

"Ok, lets go say bye to your mom and sister before we leave." Daren says. I nod my head and go to grab my suitcase but he grabs it before I can. I look up at him and he's smiling at me and I cant help but smile back. I walk down the stairs and into the kitchen with Daren following behind me. "Hey mom, we're about to leave." I say as I walk up to her. She turns around and hugs me. "Have a great time baby. And you," she says pointing to Daren, "watch after my little girl." "Mom, I'm not a baby anymore. I can handle myself." I say to her. She looks back at Daren with a serious look on her face. "Yes mam." he says.

I walk into the living room and over to Jade. "Hey J. I'm leaving now. Come give me a hug." "Where are you going?" she asks. "Daren's taking me to Ice Land." "But wont it be cold down there?" "Yeah, that's why I made sure to bring warm clothes." I say, with a small laugh. "I'll see you on Thursday, ok?" "Ok. Bye Kiera, love you." "Love you too, J." I walk out of the living room and back to Daren. He grabs my hand and we walk out the door.

"Where's you motorcycle?" I ask him. "I left it at home. I rented a car to drive so we could put our suitcases in it until we get to the jet." he explains. "Oh ok." He puts my stuff in the backseat and then opens the passenger door for me. I slip into the seat and mutter a thank you before he shuts the door and walks over to his side to get in. He starts the car, pulls out of the drive way and we're on our way to the airport.

******At the airport******

We step out of the car and the first thing I see is the jet. It was huge. How could his parents afford this?! A tall old man wearing a black suit and black hat, comes and takes our luggage from the backseat and carries it away to the jet. Daren grabs my hands and starts to pull me to the jet and inside. The seats are a creamy white and very soft. There's part of the jet where the seats are set up like a couch and then there are seats that are like chairs. I sit down on the seats that are set up like a couch and Daren sits down right beside me. "So what do you think?" Daren asks. "I think it's amazing. How can you afford this, it's huge?" I say, looking around the jet once more. He chuckles and I turn to look at him. "My parents own a very successful company plus, some of their past relatives on each sides of their family left them some money after they passed." "Oh."

A woman in a flight attendants outfit walks out with a big smile on her face. "Hello mister Knight. Can I get you anything?" "Yeah, two waters and Cathy, you can call me Daren. Mister Knight is my father." Daren smiles. Cathy blushes, nods her head and walks away. Daren turns back to face me and smiles. Right before he goes to say something, a voice comes on telling us that we're about to take off. I squeal and clap my hands like a little kid. Daren looks at me and gives me this look like I'm kind of crazy. "What? Not's not my fault I'm so excited. I've never been on a plain before." I say. "You haven't? Daren asks. I shake my head 'no'. "Wow. Well, you're going to love it. Especially because I'm on the same plain." he says and gives me a cocky grin. "I'd be a lot more excited it Channing Tatum was on this plain. Mmmm, now he's hot." I say, trying to mess with Daren. And it works because his smirk drops and he glares at me. I burst out laughing. Once I sobered up, I looked at Daren again and he was still glaring at me. "Oh come on, Daren. I was just kidding." I say. He doesn't answer me so I get up and push his chest back a little and sit on his lap, straddling him. He just stares into my eyes and my breath gets stuck in my throat. The way he was looking at me was so intense. I try to speak but I cant say anything. He leans into me slowly, very slowly. He gets close enough to my face to where our noses are almost touching. His eyes still on mine. My breathing becomes shallow and I don't move. "You're mine." he whispers and I nod my head. I look at his lips and he licks them. I watch every move of his tounge, as if it's going in slow motion. He leans in the rest of the way and touches his lips to mine. I put my hands on his cheeks and hold him there, not wanting to let him go. We kiss for a few more minutes until we break apart, needing to breath. I lean my head against his. "Always yours." I whisper and he opens his eyes and looks at mine and smiles. We sit like that for a while and I slowly drift off to sleep.
