Love Bite (mxm)(Brothers Book 2)

Chapter 4

Damon’s POV

I couldn’t let Spencer take my beloved away from me, because I had been looking for him for far too long. Seeing Spencer standing over my defenseless beloved made my blood boil. I knew my eyes were blood red, but at that moment in time I didn’t care.

“What are you doing here, Spencer?” I spat.

“I am here to take what you and your ‘sister’ took from me. Imagine my surprise when I found out the two of you shared a beloved.  It pays to have a source inside the Council.  I could now hurt both of you and get my revenge at the same time.”

“He’s done nothing to you; he’s innocent. Kill me instead,” I pleaded as I slowly started to walk toward the bed where Tyler was resting.

I could tell through our bond that he was on the verge of waking and I wanted to keep Spencer’s focus on me, so he would not notice when Tyler was awake.

“Why would I do what you request? You didn’t heed my pleas when your sister killed Orga.”

“It was kill or be killed, Gwyn had no choice. She was defending herself from your beloved.”

“So the two of you claimed,” he snarled, showing me he didn't believe that to be true.  “That's of no consequence now that I have my revenge, but why would you want this monstrosity? He’s not worthy of being like us.”

“He’s not a monstrosity, he’s my beloved and he’s perfect for me.” I noticed Tyler had woken up but had not moved from where he was laying.

“Seeing what I have come here to do is done, I offer you an additional warning.  Even if he somehow manages to survive the transition, he should not be allowed to live.  He’s not good for anything but scaring children. I will be keeping an eye on you, so if he survives and you don’t kill him, I will come back and kill you both.” Spencer walked to the window and jumped out.  When I ran over he had already been swallowed up by the pitch black darkness. 

I heard the sheets rustle and glanced over to notice that Tyler had sat up in the bed. As I looked at him closely, I was amazed by the sight in front of me. He was gorgeous before, but now he was absolutely breathtaking. His tan skin had paled a little, so it made it appear as if his facial features had sharpened.  His high cheekbones were now well defined and gave his face a more angular appearance, but the most stunningly beautiful feature was his shining hazel eyes that twinkled like diamonds.

Tyler’s POV

I woke to a strange man standing above me talking crap to Damon, but Damon stood up for me and said I was perfect for him. The next thing I knew, the man jumped out the window and disappeared.  Damon ran to the window to see where he went, but then turned toward me when I sat up in the bed.  He just stood there staring at me for a few seconds, so I wondered if I had something on my face or if I had somehow become disfigured when I transitioned. I knew I was considered handsome before, but it worried me that he now wouldn’t want me, even though he had just stood up to the other guy.

“Do I have something on my face?”

That seemed to snap Damon out of his daze. “No, you look incredible. I’m sorry, but your fantastic features stunned me for a bit.” 

I'm sure I must have blushed after he'd said that, so I quickly tried to change the subject. 

“Where’s Domonique?” 

“She’s downstairs, but there’s something you should know,” he added, as he suddenly became gloomy.  In fact, Damon looked so sad that all I wanted to do was wrap my arms around his body and hug him.  Intending on doing just that, I climbed out of the bed and walked in his direction.  As I drew closer, I realized something else was terribly wrong.
