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

New Helen

I lay with the side of my face against Helen's pelvis, her blonde hair tickling my face. The scents of recent sex in the air.

Helen relaxed against the pillows and has her legs out to make room for me, and then hooked back so that her feet were pressed lightly to my ribs.

The girls are down for naps, even Diana who thinks she is too big for them now. She is, but Helen gently explained that Mommy and Daddy need a nap too, and once they were down had taken me to bed.

Helen does this a lot these days. The frequent sex led to us becoming closer and more physically bonded to each other, more like when she was pregnant with Rachel Helena. Better, in that when she was pregnant she was offshore, so our time together was sporadic and limited and filled in by Jessica and Rachel. It is too bad we were hiding her pregnancy back then. It would be so much better now.

Big Rachel spends more time back in New York, and I feel guilty about that. I know she is not getting the attention she used to, but there are only so many hours in a day and Helen is determined to spend the hours allotted to love with Morgan, Jessica, Denise, and myself.

And Vera, when she is feeling the need for some crazy.

I rubbed my face against her happily.

"Uhmmm." Helen made a happy sound too.

"Helen? I am loathe to say this because this has been wonderful, and I am not at all complaining, but... Well. I love this new you. You are different. You are... For lack of a better technical word, yummy."

Helen ran fingers through my hair. "I made a decision. I chose this. Once I chose this, the rest of it just happened. I could not be happier with my choice, either. I am so in love, and so in lust, and it is bloody lovely."

I did the cat rubbing his face on her again thing.

"Did I mention lust? Yes... I am pretty sure I did. You know, Adrian, I talked to Victoria about what I did to you. She ... listened. Told me she liked this side of me much better."

"I loved you before, but now? You have taken us to a whole new level. This side of you is amazing. I see you on the floor in the living room with Rachel or Laura, and I want to take you to bed right then and there. Nothing sexier than a mom, being a mom."

Cat face rub. "This side of you is breathtaking."

"The side of me between my legs where your face is?" Helen asked. "Because if you keep rubbing me like that, I am going to request ... More."

I rubbed.

"I meant demand more." Helen amended. "Not request. Demand."
