The Vampire & The Vixen

Uncharted Territory

This particular chapter gets dedicated to @WednesdaysCoffin, thanks to her bringing this story up to me a few days ago I realized just how long it's been since this story has had an update and I cranked one out as fast as I could :D

"Would you like a sip?" TJ asked me, nodding towards my empty glass sitting in front of me.

'What is it?" I wondered.

"It's fabulous, and from a sweet young virgin, it doesn't get much better than that." He said, making the decision for me and filling my glass up with the dark red liquid.

I mindlessly swirled it around in the glass before bringing it up to my lips. I let the smallest drop of it hit my tongue before I recoiled from the rotten taste.

"Disgusting." I huffed, pushing the glass over towards him wanting that vile liquid as far away from me as possible.

"Oh, you just don't like it because you're accustomed to that little bitch of yours' blood. Please don't turn into a blood snob on me." TJ huffed, pouring himself a second glass as he quickly downed the first.

"If you knew just how sweet and delicious her blood tasted to me you'd understand. It's like nothing else in this world. It makes my body feel warmer than it ever did even when I was alive. Her blood seems as if it was made perfectly for me." I explained, still scowling at the rancid tasting blood he was greedily gulping down.

"Perfect for you, perfect for Ricky, and perfect for Ryan. Not so special now, huh?" TJ smirked.

"Somehow you are actually more miserable to be around than my brothers." I sighed, leaning back in my chair.

TJ laughed this comment off, rolling his eyes at me before pushing his chair back slightly and kicking his feet up so that they were resting on the table. I scowled at his rather dirty shoes, but he only smiled back at me. There were few things that TJ gave a shit about, and his manners certainly weren't on that list.

If Elizabeth couldn't stand us, she'd really hate him. She's honestly none of my brothers or I had thrown her over to him.

All it took was three minutes with TJ to truly fuck you up.

That wasn't what I had come here to discuss with him though, I needed advice. Advice that my brothers couldn't give me as they were too close to the topic at hand. While TJ was by no means particularly wise, or trustworthy, I had protected him when everyone else was ready to snap his neck. He at least owed me loyalty and some honest and hopefully wise words for that.

"I need your honest opinion on something, cousin. Are you too drunk off of that virgin's blood yet, or are you well enough to have a big boy conversation right now?" I asked him, finally shoving his feet off of the table.

"Christopher, I'm always down for a good heart to heart with you." He declared dramatically, acting as if we were best friends.

"I just want your advice on Elizabeth," I began to tell him.

"Oh yes, your little pet human. Rumor is that you two fucked. Please indulge me in every last gory detail!" TJ perked up, now looking like he was finally actually listening to the words coming out of my mouth.

"Shut up you fool! Just listen for fuck's sake!" I yelled, slamming my fist against the table.

That got his attention rather quickly as his head snapped up and looked right at me. 

"Alright, grumps, what's your late-life crisis?" 

"I need advice on what I should do with Elizabeth. We got so close to one another last night, but there's still a very clear cautiousness she displays around me. I don't want to push her too fast, but I also am chomping at the bit to mark her with my brothers." I explained.
