North American Vampire Council & Past Calling (Hypernaturals 12 & 13)

Come Love Me

I reverted to talking about us and asked a question I have had for a while. "Angel doesn't care if it's just you and I sometimes? I think she enjoys being there, with you, for Kevin. And when it's me. Not Johnny."

"Yeah. Johnny is not her thing. She tried him. She gave him a shot. He even chilled out after she asked him to. They have no vibes. Zero. For Leslie and I, Johnny is not about vibes. It's about getting fucked. Something I need and want less all that time. To answer your question: Angel and I have a blacklist, so I can fuck you all day.' Vera paused. "Make love, in your case. I have to ask to be fucked when it's you. Except on my wedding day and you gave me that as a nice present. A blacklist means I could do that guy over there if I wanted to. He is not on the blacklist. Only Alexander is. At the same time, I won't jump that dude because I don't want to have that conversation. It's open. Angel tells me everyone she bumps nasties with, and it's not a long list. Used to be longer, but once she was done getting over her fear of sex, which you helped with, thank you, she went wild for a while. Now she has settled down. Angel only wants to make love, not fuck, ya know? That means she wants lovers. She is not into some rando strange. She wants to love them first. Like you are. You could screw about anyone you wanted these days, not even counting your pheromones, but you are a homebody."

"I am and I am happy that way, not counting one small blonde exception. I know you and I used to go do all kinds of weird shit, but I see no reason for any of that now. The next Conclave will be like the last one: I will not hang in the tub looking for love in all the wrong places. I will be with people I love. See what we did at Claremont for details." I agreed.

"That was nice, although I thought it was funny how woofed Angel was you didn't get with her that night."

"That was kind of funny. I tried to make up for it later." I said.

"You did. I was there. I know my wife. She was very happy." Vera said. "My problem now? Since I turned, I am horny all the damn time. It's like it will not stop. Angel and Kevin work hard to keep me satisfied, but it is a lot of work. I am a Vampire powered love machine. I thought about trying out Alexander, just because he is a boy Vampire and I figured I can control and focus his energies to please me, but I thought about Jessica, and it turned my stomach. You know what's worse than being horny? Fucking Alexander. Not even counting the blacklist. No, thank you: why I have vibrators."

"I am glad. I think that guy is a problem, and I am going to have to deal with him in a more serious way than I have so far. He already messed up Jessica. She felt shitty about that whole thing for a long time. Did not get herself back until Claremont and the Carol/DeWayne wedding. I don't want to see you dealing with even a fraction of that, even though you are you, and your marriage differs from mine. It may just be 'well, that was only OK' and you are done with it."

"No. I can't look at him and not see Jessica. See how much she was in pain over that. Not going to happen. He is an ass. Like I said: rather use a vibrator."

"I love that you have that much empathy for Jessica."

"Married to Angel. Her stock in trade. She is rubbing off on me." Vera said.

Vera gave me a fairly evil grin. "You and Denise. Just the one time?"

"No. She has had a thing about declaring Conclave rules now and then, for the dumbest stuff. Its somebody's birthday. Conclave Rules! It's a US National Holiday. Conclave Rules! New episode of Star Trek on TV. Conclave Rules! On like that. The last time she stopped that and just said she wanted to make love. It was nice. It was also related to what I did to her when I was buttfucked by Helen. I told Council my conditions, and I told Denise I wanted her to remain as Crew Lead. I told her that I want her to figure our her guilt thing. Gave her five years. Anne cheered me on."
