The Immortal Blood

Chapter 28

Todd had watched the boy climb the stairs on shaky legs with a strange feeling in his stomach: he had to force himself to let him go, despite knowing that Adam couldn't have faced another of their ferocious intercourses.
They had reached an almost perfect sexual chemistry in a few attempts, another event that, even from the height of his experience in the field, left him at the very least astonished.
Having good sex wasn't difficult at the end of the day, but the one between him and Adam was simply FORMIDABLE, and now that the lawyer had set aside all doubts, like when he had shamelessly provoked him right against the kitchen counter, it was only improving.
He had washed the dishes and cutlery, his mind chasing the warm sensations of their last encounter.
A familiar downpour had resonated over his head: Adam was taking another bath. With a sly smile, he had finished settling in and had gone on to clean himself, reluctantly removing the boy's traces from his body.
However, something remained: the taste of the blood and essence of the blonde in the back of his palate. He had wandered around distracted by dirty thoughts, redressing himself with exhausting lazyness, until he had heard the sound of Adam's footsteps coming down the stairs.
"You made it quick." He told him, taking the car keys from the kitchen table.
"Maybe I'll sleep later."
"You better" Todd smiled at him and went to meet him in the lobby: the boy smelled clean, but that was definitely not his best aroma. "Because I've got some ideas for tonight. . ."
"You do?" Adam had bitten his lower lip to retain his obvious appreciation. "Just for tonight?"
"Don't tempt me. . ." Todd had warned him, crushing him against the armored door.
"Or what?"
Todd had repressed his instinct to make him a certain kind of request, or else he didn't know how it would have turned out.
But he was sure he would have ended up staying.
"I won't answer for myself" he'd kissed him on the mouth instead, holding their bodies together. Maybe not as satisfying as the other option, but it was good enough.
Adam responded enthusiastically, seeking dominance as much as he did. Todd had chuckled, amused, and let himself be overpowered: when the other one took the initiative he was even more exciting.
They'd made out for a long time, feeling each other up like teenagers, standing on the doorstep. In the end, the vampire had to admonish him. "Mh, enough. . . Adam, either we go all the way or you'd better stop here."
The blond had stared back at him without seeing him, blinded by desire.
"Okay." He had nodded, taking a step back with difficulty, panting.
"If it were up to me, I'd fuck you all day, but. . ."
"No. You have to go." Todd had seen him return to his lawyer persona and almost got harder.
"Are you sure you don't want to come with me?"
"No, I better not show my face around much, you'll attract less attention if you go on your own: at the end of the day, it's me that bastard is looking for. . . but hurry up." Adam had joked.
Valentine had studied his cerulean eyes, cursing Vernon and himself for his own stupidity.
"You fucking bet I will." He had snorted, opening the door before he could change his mind.
Adam had held him back by one hand, an indecipherable expression on his handsome features. "Be careful."
"All right." Todd had stolen one last hot kiss from him and one grope from his butt, hard as marble stone, to fix them in his memory, reluctantly turning around to head for the car. "Lock it all up, and put that wordrobe in front of the door. . . don't open to anyone, for any reason, okay?"
The blonde had nodded, remaining silent and watching him leave.
The vampire had speeded down the street, towards the gas station.
