Who: Edward and Kerr What: A place to call her own Where: Behind the animal pens, Zion When: Very early morning Tuesday 25th February Rating: High- turns NSFW Status: Complete
It had been a long day, though what day wasn’t long for her? Tending to the animals- even though she had help- was a lot of work. Thankfully, she enjoyed it. Kerr was learning more and more about her gift, purely by using it. She could understand the animals, it wasn’t just a gut feeling like she’d thought, it was a true understanding. And they understood her back. Still, by the time her day ended and she curled up on the thin mat that protected her from the ground next to Sheeba’s pen, she was exhausted and ready for sleep.
Or at least that was the plan.
Some point after midnight Kerr was pulled from her sleep by a feeling. Her eyes opened and she felt an irresistible draw. Getting up, she made her way around some of the pens and approached a small pop up tent. It looked like it could fit at least two bedrolls, three if it was tight. She wasn’t wearing her ‘modern’ outfit, not wanting to get it messed when she worked but she was wearing the new binder. As she pulled up her suspenders she followed the draw, sensation, impulse… whatever it was, inside the tent.
Kerr paused and blinked in confusion as she saw Edward standing there. The tent was barely big enough for him to stand, actually it looked like he may have been hunched over slightly. Looking at the exit to the tent, she then looked back to him with a furrowed brow. “Um… I’m sorry… I didn’t mean to…” She gestured slightly to the exit again not sure why he was in a tent but assuming she’d interrupted something.
---
It hadn’t been that hard to find a tent, there were several stores in the city that catered to adventure, outdoors and the like, it did though take a bit to find something that wouldn’t look out of place in Zion (if they ever got back to their own time), something that wasn’t bright colors or a weird design. He found one, purchased it and a few other items before returning back to Zion where Edward set it up at the back of the animal pens, near where he could sense Kerr was sleeping.
Using that bond that now existed between the two of them he silently called to her, drawing her to him. He knew that he wasn’t as good with this as Eva, he hadn’t had as much practise as until now pets were never really his thing. But it had done its job when he saw Kerr’s head of dark hair enter the tent followed by the rest of her.
A tiny smile at the furrowed brow and apology. “Do not apologize, come in.” He said, a hand extended towards Kerr. “I’ve been expecting you.”
---
Her head tilted to him as she arched a brow. “You… were?” Kerr ran a hand through her head with a small laugh. “Sorry I was… I don’t know why I came…” she looked up at him. “Did I forget a meeting?”
---
"No, you didn't forget anything." Edward said, his voice soft but there was something to it, a calming almost seductive undertone. While he wasn't inciting lust to Kerr just yet, he was trying to make her feel safe and relaxed.
At one end of the tent there were a few large cushions, somewhere comfortable to sit. With a grace to his movements Edward sat down on one of them. "Come, join me."
---
Still unsure as to how she’d ended up in the tent- or why- she joined Edward. “If I knew you wanted to meet I’d have…” Showered? Worn something clean? She’d washed her hands at dinner at least and she wasn’t filthy or anything. But compared to the type of person Edward was… or at least the image of the dapper vampire she had in her head… she must have been unsightly.
She sat with her knees up, work boots planted on the floor so her arms could rest atop her legs. “So… did Eva like the outfit you got her?” She asked, more to show interest as ‘friends’ were supposed to do rather than actually wanting to know the answer. Kerr was still a bit awkward being social on the regular with someone.
---
It was the middle of the night for Kerr, so of course Edward didn't expect her to be dressed up, especially at such short notice. Kerr was a worker after all, her attire reflected how hard she worked. He waved a hand, as if to tell her that it didn't matter.
He smiled when she asked about the dress that he had bought for Eva. "She did thank you, wore it out to a club over the weekend and… had a wonderful time." A small smirk, they had both had a very good time on Saturday night at the so-called vampire club.
Leaning a bit closer Edward reached out, gently tucking some hair behind Kerr's ear. "How are you feeling?" He asked, the hand running down her arm to the wrist, hoping she'd get the idea of what he was talking about, had she had any ill effects since their last meeting where he had fed from her.
---
Kerr couldn’t imagine going to a club. She’d feel so out of place. She wasn’t even sure she knew what a ‘club’ was. “That’s nice.”
She shuddered slightly at the touch, still not used to it. A clap on the back, shake of the hand, that was one thing. Something soft and caring… could she ever get used to it? “I’m well.” Goosebumps rose as he brushed her wrist. The bite marks had faded considerably thanks to whatever ‘vampire magic’ he had. But they could still be seen. She’d made sure to wear long sleeves or a bandana over the area. A leg dropped which caused her to turn more toward him, one arm still propped on her knee. “Just making sure the ‘zoos’ cared for.”
---
Edward was a tactile person, especially with Eva, and Lily in a lesser regard. He loved to touch them, to caress and reassure them everything would be alright. But for Kerr he was being cautious and taking tiny steps, gauging how she was reacting to each thing that he did.
"Good… good. They all seem happy, which means you're doing your job well." A bit of esteem boosting also helped gain the young lady's confidence. Fingertips were still brushing over Kerr's wrist when the leg dropped so he was now almost holding her hand. He increased the pleasant feelings a bit more, not wanting to overwhelm his new pet. "Though your current… residence is not all that comfortable."
---
She took in a breath as she felt her stomach flutter. “Oh… it’s.” Kerr shrugged. “I’m used to it?” She wasn’t sure how to respond, maybe explaining would be easier. “I’ve been living- sleeping where I can since before I came to Zion. Alleys, bunk houses, parks… wherever I could find. It’s been years since I had a regular… home.” She admitted.
---
Although he didn't let it show Edward was amused at Kerr's reaction to the increase, that breath and the slightly fumbled words, all good indications.
"Do you not miss having somewhere that is yours? To keep your belongings safe and not having to unroll your bed every night?" He had lived rough while on the run from the hunters so knew all about sleeping in alleys and even the odd crypt at a cemetery, anywhere dark that he could safely spend the daylight hours.
---
“Kind of have to have someplace that’s yours to miss it. Right?” She asked.
---
"What about something like this? It isn't as charming as a wagon but it is still a shelter, and a place for privacy." Edward said, fingers still lightly touching Kerr's arm.
---
Her eyes glanced down to his hand, almost forgetting the question. “This is a nice place.” She nodded, looking around.
Kerr caught the look on his face and realized his intention. “Oh.. you mean for me?” She asked, shaking her head. “Oh wow. I-I-I couldn’t. I mean, this is nice but… it’s too much. You got me the shirt last week, but this-“ her heartbeat sped up a bit. It wasn’t that she didn’t like the idea of being in a tent. And a single tent meant she didn’t have to worry about anyone accidentally seeing her naked. But she couldn’t take a gift that big… right?
---
There wasn't a lot in the tent, the cushions on the floor at one end and at the other was what he was told was a 'cot' - a sling bed that apparently was used a lot in the military and for campers, the rest Kerr could customise to her own tastes, and it hadn't costed all that much in this modern money, just as long as Kerr didn't ask where the money came from.
"Please…? It would make me feel better to know that you're safe." A bit more lust. The intentions weren't all as innocent as he was making it out to be, at least a tent offered privacy so no one could see them together, especially if he was going to feed from her. "Think of it this way, you run the occasion errand during the day for me and we're even, hmm?"
---
Kerr shifted slightly, feeling that strange sensation again, toward Edward. It was like her core warmed up and her nethers heated and dampened. She folded her legs, pulling them together next to her, turning her even more toward Edward. “Thank you.” She said, amazed at his generosity. “And of course. Anything you need I can help.” It was an easy ask for such a gift.
---
He had noticed Kerr shifting and moving closer to him, that satisfaction that his subtle increase in the inciting was working and she was feeling better minute by minute. He wasn't interested in any kind of satisfaction for himself, instead wanting Kerr to realise just how good her own body could make her feel.
As she got closer his hand slid down to rest on a knee, giving it a little reassuring pat. "I will send you a picture of a wagon on your… phone thing if I require your assistance, is that alright?"
---
She nodded with a small laugh. “That will work.” Kerr had never thought much about her inability to read until recently. She’d managed to make it, but the modern day seemed to make it impossible to go without having an education that she wasn’t privileged enough to have. She’d made due with the pictures on the phone to try to convey messages to others. There were so many it didn’t make simple ideas too hard.
Kerr swallowed at all his attention. It made her nervous and shy and happy and undeserving and confused and… and… her mouth was dry but she felt like if she opened it she’d be drooling. She felt a chill but warm inside. Her heart was racing and she felt like… she wasn’t sure, just that it wasn’t bad. “It will be nice to have a place when it rains… instead of the mud under one of the trucks.”
---
Edward was willing to teach her to read, he had said it before and maybe next time he visited her he’d bring something simple to start out with, although it was a good excuse to see one another he did kind of want to help her out.
Again he built the lust up, he could hear the quickening of her heartbeat and although she hadn’t said anything he knew the signs well enough to know what she was feeling. The hand hadn’t moved from Kerr’s knee and she didn’t seem to be pushing it away either, he took that at as another good sign. “That is true, stay nice and dry when it’s wet, warm when it’s cold and you can also change in private.”
---
Her thighs squeezed together slightly as she felt… funny, a twitch? Something was happening and it was embarrassing. Kerr didn’t want him to know, afraid maybe she was sick or something and he’d think lesser of her. Maybe that’s what it was. Maybe she was just ill. Her chest felt fluttery as did her stomach.
Carefully, she placed her hand on his, he was so cold and she felt so warm in comparison. Maybe she had a fever, she’d not actually gotten ill while being at Zion before but she had sustained some injuries after King’s attack in december and Kieran had helped her. Maybe she should go to the medical tent. “I think… I don’t think I’m well.” She said softly, moving to get up.
---
“What is wrong? Tell me, I might know what it is.” Edward said, voice soft and caring again. As she moved to get up he took her other hand, stopping her from doing so, at least until she told him what was wrong, even though he knew what it was.
---
She paused, looking down with a frown, brow furrowed. “I’m not sure. My chest is pounding and my stomach is tingly… I have the chills and-” Kerr closed her eyes and looked away.
---
“You are not sick dear Kerr, I can promise you that. It will pass soon enough and I’m sure you will feel much better.” Edward reached up and tucked the hair back behind her ear, turning her head a bit to look at him.
---
Another idea of what might be going on occured to her- but it was too early. Her drawers felt damp and typically that meant one thing. “No but…” Her breath stuttered as Edward turned her head. “I think I might need… It’s a woman thing… you probably won’t understand… I should-” But she didn’t move.
Kerr didn’t know about sex, or any of the feelings she was experiencing. She’d been abandoned before her body had started to develop or mature. Arousal was a foreign concept to her that had her mind going crazy with confusion over why her body was seemingly having a mind of its own. The only reason she learned about her womanly time was because it happened the first time when she was at work and another worker found her crying in a corner- she thought she was dying. She explained it was a monthly curse women endured, that you kept it to yourself and that it was best to stay home for the few days it happened- or if you couldn’t to use linen.
“I’m sorry.” She tried to look away in shame.
---
Although he had sisters and a mother that women’s business was something he wasn’t privy to, just told to be nice to them when they were moody and mean to him, but he knew enough to know what she was talking about, that thing that had given away the fact that Kerr wasn’t really a man. “Do not be sorry.” Edward replied, the hand on Kerr’s face gently rubbing her cheek. “I do not think it is that, unless you get a tingly stomach then as well. It might be something different, there are a lot of things in the human body that are quite fascinating.” He increased the lust more than before, but hopefully not enough to frighten Kerr.
---
Her teeth chewed on her lip slightly as she squirmed a little, fingers balling into a clenched hand. “It’s like… when there’s an attractive man…” She licked her lips. “But… a hundred times more.” That small flutter she’d felt before, but ignored it most times. This was impossible to ignore. Her fingers pressed into her thigh as she felt urges to do things she’d never thought of before. Things that were wrong and unnatural- probably- right? Kerr whimpered slightly, looking up at Edward with a mix of fear and desperation for answers she hoped he’d have- because someone had to.
---
His thumb rubbed her cheekbone, listening to her explain what it was she was feeling and trying not to smile knowing it was because of him. This was all new for Kerr and he wasn’t sure how far it could push it, how far she would let it go. That look on her face, he knew the look of fear very well, the other one he wasn’t sure about. “Your body is… happy. Very happy. It’s part of being human and normal, nothing to worry about. I promise.” Hopefully that was the kind of answer she was after. “It can lead to that feeling I was talking about, like flying in the clouds.”
---
“Like when you bit me?” She remembered that feeling. It wasn’t completely different from how she felt at that moment, almost like it ran parallel. Kerr’s hand slid between her thighs, gripping her leg as she almost melted at his touch. Why did being ‘happy’ feel like she was coming undone?
She felt her private areas twitch again, as if expecting something to happen. He had told her that he could make her fly, was being around him making her feel this way? He was very attractive, but she’d never reacted like that before. Honestly, she couldn’t think too hard on it as her focus kept slipping. She wanted to… she wanted…
He was cold, her eyes had closed, she’d never done something like that before and it was clear when instead of landing on his lips. She landed on his chin.
Heat flushed into her cheeks as she pulled away, curling in on herself slightly as embarrassed as she was for her mistake she had to still fight the hysteria to touch herself.
---
“Just like that… but stronger and all over your body.” He replied, noticing where her hand was sliding to. There was part of him that wanted to put his hand over hers and guide her through it, make her come undone but he also didn’t want to frighten her.
Edward could see what was coming, how Kerr’s eyes had closed and she was leaning in… but ended up kissing his chin instead. He was about to move his hand to lift her head when she pulled away.
A little bit more lust to try and fight that embarrassment. “Shh, it’s alright. Would you like to kiss me?”
---
“No.” She said softly, her hand moving up her thigh, unable to resist any longer. Kerr wasn’t sure what to do, but when her fingers pressed against herself she let out a little whimper and closed her eyes. “Yes.” What was she doing? Edward was right there? A man was right there and she was being so unsightly and improper and debauched. Her hand moved up to pull away but the friction, pressure, feeling that the small movement caused sent a bolt of electricity through her. She whimpered again, breathlessly as her eyes opened. “What am I-” She bit down on her lip as she found herself pressing her fingers back against her trousers and rubbing awkwardly.
---
Edward had definitely seen worse, he had done a lot worse only a few nights ago in that club. He felt no arousal watching Kerr, he’d need to be human for that and instead felt pride, she was giving into these primal urges. A hand moved down to just above her knee, rubbing at Kerr’s thigh gently.
“I could help you… if that is what you want.” He said, wanting that permission, he was still a gentleman, well at times at least.
---
Kerr shuddered at his touch and she nodded, “I- I wanna fly.” Her eyes glistened with intense emotion and arousal. Her whole body felt like electricity and like it was on fire. It felt good. Great. Kerr didn’t have a word to describe it.
---
He moved his hand and shifted around so that he was now sitting behind her, giving her something solid to lean against. “You will dear Kerr, so high.” Edward’s hands moved down, one loosened the buttons of her pants while the other rested over the back of hers, moving it between the layers of material so Kerr’s fingers were resting over that little nub that she didn’t yet know about. “Is this where it feels good?”
---
His arms around her made her feel protected, even as he undid her trousers. As her fingers brushed over her bare skin she was pleased for his support as she felt like she would have dissolved in that moment. “Oh…” She gasped, her head leaned back against him. “Whoa… wow.” Her lips parted as she breathed heavily. Her fingers followed his, applying pressure to herself, touching areas she’d never really touched before.
She found her fingers moving in a circle after a moment, guided slightly by his own as she realized what felt better. “I’ve never-” She gasped, head turning to look up, behind him, her neck exposed.
---
Maybe later he’d give her a bite on the neck, just when she would reach that peak but for the moment he resisted the urge, listening to her quickening heartbeat and guiding her hand a bit but letting her take the control, to find out what was more pleasurable. No two women were ever the same.
“Felt like this? It is amazing, isn’t it?” He asked, not really expecting much of an answer as Kerr was probably more distracted by these new feelings she was experiencing. He didn’t need to add any more lust now, she was finding it for herself.
---
Her fingers slipped into her folds, but returned to that sensitive nub. It felt better than anywhere else. Her pace quickened a bit with her breathing as she pressed against him slightly. He’d already wound her up and the feelings were so intense and new and her senses were on fire that it wasn’t going to take long for her to find the end of the line.
Her breath caught slightly as she felt all her senses tunnel into the singular sensation of her finger on her clit, pulse pounding with every circle. It felt like she was climbing a hill. A build up, pressure as she approached the summit, eager to see what was down the other side.
---
Although his hand was still over hers, Kerr was in full control and was doing a very good job, although once he did guide her hand down lower to moisten her fingertips with her own wetness, making things slide a bit easier. That was one thing that he did miss with Eva but sex with his beautiful vampire was better than anything else anyway. This was more of a lesson in self discovery for a woman who had never experienced pleasure.
Edward’s other hand moved up, although Kerr was still wearing the binder that compressed her breasts he put a hand over one, giving it a gentle squeeze. He could tell that she was not far off, he could read all of the signs and managed to push the top of Kerr’s shirt to the side to bite in a place that would not normally be visible to anyone else. Opening his mouth he hovered, ready to sink his fangs in when she had reached that summit.
---
Her vision seemed to darken around the edges as she felt herself hold her breath. Just as she felt herself crest she felt that brief prick before a rush of pleasure radiating down from her shoulder. It collided with her self made pleasure and that breath she’d been holding was let out in an audible gasp. “Uh.” She moaned as she felt her body convulse as she felt her insides contract and release, causing her trousers to become even more wet. Her thighs came together, trapping her hand and his as each pulse of her orgasm washed over her. Her other hand reached up to grab ahold of Edwards arm as if she needed him to brace herself.
After a time that had no meaning what so ever, she felt herself start to relax- a few ‘aftershocks’ hit for a brief time after. Sweat pearled at her brow as she felt like she was practically panting for breath. “Oh my.” Was all she could get out.
---
He didn’t really drink from her, just a quick mouthful while he held onto Kerr as she peaked and rode the pleasurable high for the first ever time. His hand wasn’t really doing much as her thighs clamped down around it, he did though press in just the once in the middle of one of the pulses, for that little bit extra.
Continuing to hold onto Kerr, Edward pulled back from her neck once she had finished, hands still holding her to make her feel secure as she came down. “Did you like flying?” He asked her after a few moments, when she had started to get her breath back.
---
“Yes.” She giggled, feeling like she might cry thanks to how relieved she felt. Her hand moved to rest on his as it held her chest, thankful for the way she felt supported in that moment. “I never imagined... “ Kerr looked back up to him, she’d have turned to face him if she felt like she could have moved her legs. “Thank you.”
---
“Now you know what to do if you get that feeling again.” He said, sliding his hand out of Kerr’s trousers and letting it rest on her stomach. He wondered what Eva would think when he got back to their wagon, when he told her about how he had spent the past few hours. “And in here no one will ever know what you are doing.” A luxury he doubted she had in just a bedroll out in the open. When she looked up at him he smiled down at her. “It was a pleasure. Yours.”
