Heavenly Blood

13 - Alec

Alice shivered slightly. I didn't care how long I had been laying there next to her, but I guessed it had been a few hours since we had gotten home. I pulled the blanket from the edge of the bed around her and between us, trying the create a barrier between my skin and her so she could retain her warmth. Regardless of this, Alice placed her arm on my chest. She shivered as she did. I sighed and tried not to touch her as I knew it was because of me she shivered. I hadn't left her, I couldn't bare to imagine what would happen if she took an turn for the worst and I wasn't there. Or worse, she woke up alone. Besides, I hadn't needed to leave her. My body was still being fuelled by her blood for the next two days. That's how pure and powerful divine blood was to Vampires. I hadn't felt this strong or this powerful in a while.

I tucked a strand of her hair behind her ear. Her dark red hair spreading or behind her like a befitting mane. She really did have the heart of a lion, as cheesy as it sounds. She wasn't scared of anything, even death. More time than I could count, she saved both of our lives and walked with me through difficult shit. I couldn't say when the first time I had fell in love with her was. It felt like an eternity. I looked back down at her face and gently stroked her soft pale skin with the back of my hand. I couldn't help but think that she almost looked as pale as me.

Alice's eyes fluttered and I leant down to watch her emerge in anticipation. I needed her to be ok. Her eyes slowly opened and looked into mine, her lips splitting into a smile and mine following suit in relief. I kissed her quickly before pulling her in closer to me, grateful to hear her laugh and squeal and feel the shiver that occurred every time we touched the she always tried to hide.

"How are you feeling?" I asked, relief evident in my voice.

"I'm fine baby!" She replied quietly, "I'm fine."

"You sure?"

"You should be the one worried. You're always freezing," she laughed, "How come?"

"No blood equals no warmth," I replied simply.

She slowly sat up, wrapping the blanket around her body, and placed her leg over mine so she straddled my body. I placed my hand flat on her back, gently stroking the soft skin with my thumb. I enjoyed the feeling over just having her. I leaned in to kiss her but she moved her head to one side, indicating she wanted me to kiss her neck. I swallowed and tensed my jaw before planting my lips gently on her skin. I lingered for only a few seconds, not letting myself inhaled the scent of her blood. She slowly wrapped her arm around my head, forcing me to continue to kiss her. My lips caressed her beautiful skin. I knew why she was doing this, she wanted me to trust myself again. But I couldn't. Not yet.

"I'm sorry," I whispered, "I can't. I don't want to hurt you."

She smiled weakly, "It was my choice. I let you drink from me because I wanted to save you. You were literally falling to pieces in front of me. I love you."

She cradled my head in her hands. I placed my own over hers and curled my fingers around just to hold them. I wanted to just let go, ignore the past but it haunted me like a wet shadow. It would have burdened my soul if I had one. I couldn't forgive myself.

She sighed and gathered the sheets, "If you can't see that I don't care about the consequences and that I just want to be with you maybe I should just..."

I held her down on to me, lifting the sheet up her thighs. I pushed my mouth harshly on hers, one hand raked through her hair to pull her closer. My fingers trailed up the inside of her thigh before cupping her sex. I gently parted the lips and her breath hitched. I then eased my middle finger in and pressed down hard on her clit. She winced as a pulse of pain and odd pleasure bloomed through her body. My cold digit started to slowly swirl of her clit, making her body weak as she clung to me, holding my shoulders for support. The swirling turned to a faster rubbing, lubricated by her own hot juices. She gasped as I pulled my finger out and pulled away from our kiss. She watched me, biting her lip, as I slowly lift my finger to my lips where I licked it, smiling at the taste of her. I then pushed my finger back into her and viciously stimulated her once again. A low moan built from the back of her throat as her climax built within, and I couldn't help but smile. Her hips rocked against my hand. All I could do was smile and kiss her collar as she clenched her face as the pressure built. And it hit. Hard. An eruption of heavenly relief and satisfaction spread across her face as she came, making her nipples stand on end and incoherently repeat the word yes. My smile didn't fault as I removed my hand from her throbbing pussy and licked it clean and crashing my lips into hers with animalistic need.
