Tuesday/Wednesday 23rd/24th December 08 Who: Cassie and Jason What: A surprise for the demon! Where: Her house in England. When: Starting around midnight. Warnings: Probably NSFW really.
Jason had finally gotten off the plane, tired as hell but excited that he was going to surprise Cassie. Of course, given that the tickets were from her biological father it was highly possible his presence was only going to create waves for her. He hoped not. Grabbing his bag, he pulled up the text from Cassie with her address, hailing a cab for a ride. It took some time, but they finally made it through the busy streets to stop in front of a rather lovely home. Well, he was sure it'd be lovely if it weren't pitch dark outside. Midnight and the only lights were the ones from the cab and the streetlamps. Great. Way to look like a creeper. Paying the driver, Jason got out and strode to the front door, ringing the bell and praying someone was still awake. It was bloody cold outside!
Cassie had only got in herself that very morning. It was really nice to be home for a while, even though she was missing Jason, not helped by his texts that morning. Infact, still set to EST, the chaos demon was still awake, and wondering where the hell her boyfriend was, not seeing him online. So much for being able to talk tonight, she thought. So instead she was surfing, music on, just chilling out, waiting to see if anyone wanted to talk to her online, when she heard the bell ring downstairs. Huh. Odd. Cassie ran down the stairs, tripping over her own shoes left at the bottom of the stairs with the momentum she had going and slamming her hand into the wall in an attempt to stabilise herself. When she answered the door she was massaging her hand, not noticing who was there for a second until she looked up. Of course even when she did look up she wasn't sure she hadn't hit her head and was hallucinating. The demon stood there wide eyed, looking like she'd seen a ghost. "Jason?" She breathed in disbelief.
The dhamphir saw the light on in the upstairs window, shadows shifting around and he wondered, while standing on the stoop, just what Cassie was doing. Was she annoyed he wasn't online? Maybe she wouldn't want to know he was here. This was a bad idea. He knew it. But he couldn't leave. Not only was the cab gone, the shadow in the window had shifted and he could hear the thunder of footsteps on the stairs even through the door. Definitely Cassie. Unable to help himself, he smiled as he waited for the door to open. "I told you I missed you."
How could this be happening? Jason was here. At her house. In England. Woah. "I.. how..." Cassie shook herself out of the daze, pulling him inside and shutting the door before running her hands over him, kissing him. "You're really here." And that was when the grin grew and she kissed him again, more happy and less disbelieving. "Why didn't you tell me? How is this happening? Wow, you are totally forgiven for not being online tonight." The chaos demon babbled, kissing him yet again. This was mad, but possibly the best present ever.
Jason just grinned, watching Cassie's rather expressive features try to take in that he was no mirage or ghost. He was real. Once inside the door, he dropped his bag to the floor, threading his fingers through her hair and kissing her back, just as happy. "I wasn't supposed to tell you. It's a surprise. A 'merry Christmas' from a, um, Alexander Larkin or something." Leaning down, he kissed her again then settled for just holding her close, having her in his arms.
A surprise? Cassie liked surprises, especially ones that looked like this and kissed like that. When she heard who had 'sent' him though, she rolled her eyes, still smiling. "AKA Biodad. It's kind of creepy how much he knows about my life without really talking to me." Still, it paid off when it meant he got her presents like this, even if there was almost certainly some other kind of motive to doing this. Probably just the chaos of sending him unannounced, with no warning for her family or place already set up for him to stay. "Mmmm as much as I want to stay here in your arms, we should probably relocate to my room." Cassie decided, not making any move whatsoever to move from where she was.
"Ah," Jason nodded knowingly. "That makes more sense now." Who else but a chaos demon would send tickets to someone without setting up a place for him to stay or forewarning the recipients? "So upstairs we should go." Without releasing Cassie, he knelt down to pick up his bag, of course taking the same opportunity to sweep her into his arms, Charming style. "Where to, m'lady?"
"Uh huh." It was all coming together. Jason didn't even have to know biodad or much about him to get that it made so much more sense by knowing it was him that sent the tickets. Even then Cassie still couldn't quite believe her boyfriend was there infront of her though, in her house. Especially not when he swept her into his arms. Her Prince Charming. She was the luckiest girl alive, as sappy as that sounded. Giggling, she kissed him softly. "Upstairs. All the way to the top. I have the floor to myself for now." That would change when family descended for Christmas day, but for now it was useful.
Chuckling, Jason shifted his grip on his bag, holding it more firmly. "And how many floors?" He started to jog lightly up the stairs, not at all winded by the weight of his bag and girlfriend. Thank God for being a lycan-vamp. At the first landing, he paused, kissing Cassie again, swiping her mouth with his tongue to take in her flavor once more. "The floor to yourself, hmm? Is that a suggestion?"
Cassie had thought for a moment that carrying her and his bag up to her room would be a challenge, but she should have known better. They boy was part vamp. Two floors was nothing to him. "There's only three floors to this house luckily. Be glad I don't live in a high rise flat." She laughed, wondering how he would have fared with that. When Jason stopped though she shut him up with kisses and lowered her voice to little more than a whisper. "We might want to get up there before you carry on that thought, considering we're outside my parents' room."
Jason glanced to the door on his right and chuckled. "My bad," he whispered, turning to finish going up the stairs. "Which way?" Following the direction where Cassie pointed, he toed open the door and kicked it closed. The bag was dropped right by it and Cassie deposited on the bed, Jason quickly pinning her to the mattress with his own body. "Better?"
She was pretty sure her parents would be fine with Jason staying, they weren't about to kick him out in a foreign country with nowhere to go, but it was probably best to tell them in the morning instead of the middle of the night, so Cassie was extremely glad when he carried on up the stairs and they didn't seem to have woken anyone. All thoughts of parents evaporated in the presence of him pinning her to her bed though. "Much better." She purred, raising her head to kiss him. "I still can't believe you're even here."
Jason nuzzled Cassie slightly, smiling down at her and kissing back, nipping her lips. "I'm here." He arched his hips forward a bit, giving her a good idea of just how present he really was. "Not a dream, or do I need to prove that?" He trailed soft kisses over her cheek, down to her neck, kissing lightly.
Oh he was most definitely there, although.... "Well, I can't say I haven't had dreams that started something like this...." She murmured, biting her bottom lip at the feel of his lips on her skin. "I do have a good imagination after all. Sometimes I think this whole relationship must be a dream." Woah, Cassie, sappy much? Shut up! "Maybe this is just one big sex dream."
Jason had started to lift his head at her comments, about to kiss her sweetly and give a few sappy comments of his own. She stopped him by mentioning the sex though he couldn't fault her for it. "Oh? Tell me." He dragged his tongue over her throat, wanting to nip but not wanting to leave marks or draw blood. Of course, the thought had definitely crossed his mind.
Cassie didn't really know relationships and boyfriends from this point of view, so she panicked when the sappy stuff came out of her mouth, afraid she'd scare him off. Mentioning sex and getting them back to that subject seemed safer. Who said the little demon didn't have her problems? "An incredibly hot dhampir turns up on my doorstep, in the middle of the night when I was just starting to think about wanting my boyfriend, sweeps me off my feet like something in a fairytale, and kisses like something much darker. Makes me want his teeth nipping at me, his lips on my skin, his body thrusting into me. Sounds like a very good dream to me." She got out breathily, distracted by his attention to her.
While Jason wasn't sappy, he would have thought Cassie would figure out by now that he was most definitely a romantic. Growling softly, he kissed over her ear and throat, pausing to lick at places he knew would make her gasp and moan. "I want to do more than nip with my teeth, but I'm holding back," he murmured, tugging down the neck of her shirt to kiss her shoulder.
In her mind there was a fine line between sappy and romantic, and she really didn't want to run him off by crossing it. Maybe later, but not right now. Now they were fine with more sexual subjects, safer, and Cassie liked the way Jason seemed to be thinking as he drew those noises of pleasure from her. Wriggling, she created enough space to pull her top off and leave her with just a camisole on her top half, giving Jason the skin he seemed to want. "I like the feel of your teeth on my skin though..." She encouraged. "It's winter, as long as it's not somewhere too obvious it can be covered... give in..."
Jason shook his head, even as he lightly nipped her. "No, I bite the dolls so I learn control. Not you." Done with talking, and not wanting to hear an argument just now, he dropped his head, sucking her breast into his mouth through the silk of the camisole. His tongue laved the material, soaking it to mold to her skin. "Gorgeous," he breathed pulling back.
That was an argument Cassie was pretty sure she wasn't going to win, and tonight wasn't the time to try it, so she dropped it. Would wonders never cease? He had a convincing counter argument too, which helped distract her. There was a sharp intake of breath as he sucked on her, followed by soft whimpers. It wasn't fair, how did he always know just what to do to make her melt? "You... you are too good at this." She laughed shakily. "Best present ever."
Jason chuckled softly, enjoying the way her back arched, offering those lovely nipples to his mouth. "I'm just getting started." Switching to the other breast, because they both deserved attention, Jason dropped his hands to her jeans, flipping open the button and tugging down the zipper. They needed to go.
Well it wasn't like it was really after midnight to their bodies since they were still on EST, and even if it had been that late to them Cassie didn't think it would stop them. It was hot how pleased with himself Jason seemed by the effect he had on her, which just raised her lust even higher. A rare sensible thought interrupted though as he started removing her jeans. "We should probably lock the door." The last thing she wanted was someone coming in. "Then I'm all yours to teach a lesson for leaving you behind." Who knew why she came out with those words, even she wasn't sure what made her say them. "All yours to do with as you want."
Hearing the logic of locking the door, Jason still couldn't hold back his growl of frustration. "Fine," he grumbled, leaning back and climbing off the bed. "Go take care of it," he ordered with a smirk. He wasn't quite sure where that demand came from and he almost took it back. Almost. The only thing that held his tongue was the look on Cassie's face. As she locked the door, he took the time to kick off his shoes and socks, unbuttoning his shirt most of the way down, leaving it tucked in.
Of course he was frustrated, she was stopping him in the middle of his flow. Hell, she was frustrated, but just this once she was listening to the logic in her head. She was more likely to be able to keep Jason near if her parents didn't walk in on them having sex. The command was a surprise but it was clear she was turned on by it, even if she did try to make a joke of it. "Yessir." There was an extra sway to her hips as she walked to the door, lust shining in her eyes as she walked back towards him. Wherever that came from, Cassie hoped it came back out to play. Often. She stopped infront of him, jeans undone but still on, camisole clinging to her breasts, hair messed up. His move.
As she walked to the door, Jason took note of the hips and the extra spunk she seemed to have and thought back over the past couple months. She really seemed to like it when he took charge. Was it just a phase or was it a fantasy? Licking his lips, eyes shining gold, Jason made the silent decision to play this role and see how it turned out. Slowly he walked over to her, stepping around to stand behind. A hand came up to her hair, tugging it free from the ponytail. "You've been a bad girl," he started, feeling a little awkward but trusting his nose to tell him how she felt.
Even Cassie wasn't a hundred percent sure of what she wanted. She knew she liked it when he took charge, and she liked some pain during foreplay and sex, and some things she had read or thought about turned her on. Some things like.... exactly what Jason did next. Seeing the change in demeanour, Cassie resisted the urge to turn around when he walked behind her, and she whimpered as those words came out of his mouth, so incredibly turned on right now.
Okay, so his nose was definitely picking up a surge of lust coming from Cassie. Seemed like she was enjoying what was going on. Emboldened and encouraged, Jason tangled in fingers in her hair, tugging it sharply to pull her head back. "Do you know what happens to naughty girls?" Jason didn't claim to be the world's best improvisor, but he was certainly doing his best. His free hand started pushing her jeans over her hips, waiting for them to fall to the floor.
This was definitely a sex dream. Couldn't be real. How many times had she thought about Jason saying things like this, acting like this, and somehow it just happened... It was only a shame it was happening here and not somewhere on their own where they could do whatever they wanted without thinking about people hearing. Even then it still took everything Cassie had to not beg him to just fuck her then and there. "They get punished?" She offered breathily.
Maybe this was something she was into more than he realized. Jason made a mental note to have to talk with her about this at some point, about what exactly it was that she liked. But that would be later. Not right now. "And how do you think a naughty girl like you should be punished," he asked, whispering in her ear. He was well aware that her parents, who he hadn't met yet and didn't know that he was here were a floor below them. Still, Jason couldn't seem to stop himself. She was just too sexy.
Oh fuck, that question whispered in her ear. A shiver of pure pleasure and lust ran through the chaos demon. Her first answer to that was something they definitely couldn't do with her parents asleep below them though, and something she still wasn't sure how he would react to, so there was a slight delay as she substituted it for something more acceptable. "By doing whatever her boyfriend tells her to and pleasuring him." It was the first alternative she could think of, although she wasn't sure it really worked as an answer. Maybe he could come up with something else she figured.
Well, damn. So much for getting an idea of what she would be interested in. Though maybe it was only the idea of something darker that was a turn on. It was something to think about. Releasing her hair, he slid both hands under her cami, hands drifting up her ribcage to cup and squeeze her breasts, lightly pinching each nipple between his thumb and forefinger.
With her hair released, and the endorphins already starting to rush through her body, Cassie's head rested back against him, eyes closed, concentrating on the sensations. Her body tightened even at the feel of his hands running over her skin on their way to their destination and she sighed happily. When he started to play with her nipples though she moaned softly. Hmm, Cassie seemed to be enjoying this quite a bit, but they had talked about punishment. Those quiet sighs weren't indicative of a scolding so he pinched his fingers tighter around her nipples, twisting them slightly to hear her response.
Somehow she couldn't see him ever actually punishing her, Jason was just too nice for that. A little 'fun'ishment though? That seemed very possible right now. A sharp gasp was the response he got as he got rougher and she wriggled a little, her hands going back to touch him, grasping at his jeans. It was clear she was still turned on by it though.
Jason knew that she liked things rough, but this was the first time he was actually in control enough to appreciate it, to add some finesse to it. He glanced down, taking in the way her breath panted softly through her mouth, eyes closed in pleasure, neck arched and pulse blasting just beneath the skin. He needed to step away. Tugging on her nipples, he released them abruptly, stepping back from her. "Strip," he ordered, walking around towards the bed. He loosened his jeans on the way, sitting down on the edge of the bed with them open, granting room to his rock hard length.
It was true that she only tended to provoke rough sex when he was already riled up by the full moon and not thinking completely clearly, so it was kind of odd to have him rough when he was all himself. A hot kind of odd. Knowing he knew exactly what he was doing, taking charge, making her his, it was all adding to her pleasure. She wanted to make him happy, so there was no hesitation in following his orders to strip. The jeans he pushed down before were pushed aside, and the camisole sloooowly peeled off to further reveal her nipples standing to attention. Her panties were last, Cassie making a big show of bending over to remove them, but then just discarding of them with the pile of other clothes. Finally she stood naked infront of him, hunger and lust shining in her eyes, and her hands running through the messy waves of her hair.
Jason watched happily with golden eyes, leaning back on his elbows to enjoy the show. When she was done, he slowly looked her over, breathing softly through his mouth in awe. It hadn't been long since the last time he'd seen her, but damned Jason had missed her. "C'mere," he murmured, shifting his hips slightly to give her a clue what he wanted.
That look on his face, his eyes... it made her happy to see the effect she had on him. If there was one thing the chaos demon knew how to do, it was generally putting on a show, so it was good to know it was appreciated. "With pleasure..." Cassie purred, walking towards him with a sway to her hips again, until she crouched perfectly between his legs and let her hands run over his jean clad legs until she reached what she wanted to touch. Reaching into his jeans she drew him out, biting her lip. She would never tire of seeing, touching and tasting him, and she couldn't help but explore him with her hands first.
She was perfect. Charming, funny, sweet and a whole lot sexy. Jason groaned softly when Cassie knelt before him, hands ghosting over his thighs and finally his cock. She was so talented and they'd gotten pretty good at reading each other, figuring out what the other wanted. Cassie was reading his mind.
If not for the fact she flirted outrageously with other people, she'd probably be considered quite the catch, but she was nothing compared to Jason. Prince Charming on the surface, and deliciously dark in bed, he was perfect. A small smile curved her lips hearing those groans, and knowing she caused them. Her hands explored his cock, until eventually she couldn't hold out any more and she started to press her lips to the soft skin, her tongue coming out to further explore him and her free hand slid inside his jeans to play there.
Jason started to arch his hips up a bit, silently demanding more of her lips and tongue on him. Keeping his hips raised, he shoved his jeans and boxers down to his knees. He would have pushed them all the way off, but that would have required moving Cassie. There was no way on Earth he was giving this up just yet.
Without taking her hands and mouth away from where she wanted to be, Cassie shifted enough to let him get his jeans and boxers down and out of the way. Now with more space, one hand started to explore his balls, searching for the sensitive spot between them. Her fingers found it at exactly the same time as she slipped his head into her mouth, wanting to see what effect the combination had on him.
He finished kicking off his bottoms, leaving him in just the shirt which fell open to his sides. Sighing and panting with pleasure, Jason stroked her hair as she touched him, tasted. Of course, the intensity of what she did was unexpected and Jason gripped her hair, growling low in his throat and arching up a bit. He most definitely like it.
Unfortunately (or fortunately depending on your point of view) his reaction made a cross between a laugh and a moan of pleasure bubble up from her throat, sending vibrations through her mouth. Cassie's eyes rolled up to see for herself the way it affected him, because nothing beat his reactions. She didn't let up though, moving as much as she could with his hand in her hair, teasing him with lips, tongue and hands.
Jason dropped his head back for a moment, overwhelmed by the tight wet heat of her mouth. He was so horny at that instant, not wanting her to stop, but knowing that if she continued just what would happen. Raising his head once more, he tugged on her hair, pulling her away from his lap and to his mouth for a searing kiss.
Not knowing what his plans were, Cassie wasn't sure that him finishing like this wasn't what he wanted. Logically she could rationalise that he never left her without a release, but logic wasn't in place anymore. A slightly triumphant soft laugh came from her again as he pulled her up, realising it must mean she was having an effect on him he wasn't sure he could control much longer.
"Definitely cause chaos," he mumbled against her mouth, biting her lip to cut off any reply and sending his tongue deep to taste her. "Want you," he added, shifting a bit so she was straddling his hips. The urge to bite her was strong, stronger than he was used to so he wanted her on top to help him avoid temptation. "Ride me."
Her laugh at him talking about her chaos was quickly cut off by the moan from his teeth on her lip and his tongue. The little demon was definitely pleased with herself, as well as how things were working out. She wasn't sure she had ever been more turned on than she was right now as she straddled him, especially not hearing those words. Poor poor boy was probably overloaded with the emotions and energies she was pumping all over the place. Positioning herself, Cassie seemed to be almost teasing herself and him with his cock lined up and just touching her, but not inside her yet.
Jason gripped her hips, not wanting to be tormented any longer. She could do that later, after this time. It'd been awhile since he was inside her and he was feeling like a refresher course was needed. Tugging, he jerked her hips down at the same time he slammed his up, pushing into her slick channel.
She would have been laughing again at making him take action, but she was too preoccupied with the feel of him filling her up, so rough, and those hands on her hips, making her gasp again. Her movements became almost instinctual as she rode him, starting slow but within only seconds she was too lost in him and the sensations to stay gentle.
Jason groaned, dropping his hips back to the bed and making himself slide mostly out of her body. Of course, he wasn't gone long before she took him back in. "Fuck, Cass," he groaned. The faster she rode, the louder he growled, completely forgetting that her parents were a floor beneath them.
Cassie was still partly aware of a need to keep quiet, if not thinking why, but she was finding it hard to care. In the morning she would be horrified if it turned out her parents had heard, but for now it was a vague niggling that she needed to shut him up, so she used what she had, and kissed him to at least muffle the sounds coming from him, and herself too. It limited her range of movement a little, but she could still continue what they were both enjoying, getting a little more uneven as the pleasure built more and more.
Jason groaned into her mouth, into the kiss, holding her hips and keeping the pace with his own, rocking up hard into her body using the mattress' bounce. Jason crushed her breasts to his chest, wanting to feel her release along with his own. They could tease later.
Even though their chests were already pressed together, giving her the skin fix, Cassie wanted that shirt off him completely and she tried to push it off. A movement of his hips distracted her though and her fingers just curled, digging into his arms and part their mouths. "Fuck Charming." She groaned, her arms going to around his neck so she could almost use him to push and pull off as she reached that shining edge, almost there, just a little more and....
Jason wasn't sure what Cassie was trying to do with his shirt and her hands and right now he couldn't bring himself to care. She was driving him to distraction, driving them both to the edge. "Don't stop," he groaned when she separated their mouths. Soft grunts and groans echoed in his chest and his fangs cut into his lower lip when he bit it to hold back a loud groan. He could feel just how close she was and he was right behind her.
Cassie pressed their mouths back together again, too caught up to even think about the taste of the blood from him, pressing herself closer to change the angle and rub her piercing against his skin and make it pull. The shift in position and the catching of the bar was just what she needed to push her over the edge and she tightened around him, using Jason to muffle the whimpers and moans coming from her as she came.
Jason shifted his hands to grip her ass as she clenched around him. The way she pulsed and squeezed hit every spot on his cock, wrapping him, tightening and releasing, pushing him over the edge. He growled into her mouth, the sound low and feral as he came hard, holding her from wiggling too much on his sensitive member. Long moments later he broke off the kiss, dropping his head back onto the mattress and panting from his release. "Fuck, Cass," he whispered breathlessly.
Collapsing on top of him, Cassie tried to get her breath back, only to waste it laughing at his exclamation. "We never would have survived this week apart." She decided, finally working up enough energy to move herself to lying alongside him on the bed. She was probably going to have to change her sheets tomorrow.
Jason chuckled along with her, turning his head to look at his girlfriend as he lay beside him. "Nope. Would've had fun on camera though." Reaching out, he tucked a strand of her hair behind her ear, stroking her cheek as he pulled back.
"That was my plan for tonight. I was getting frustrated that you weren't online so I could start it." She told him, wrinkling her nose. "I think I like this better, although imagining your reactions to watching me run my hands over myself, touching, teasing.... mmmm" Cassie purred, wriggling a little and moving in to rest her head on his chest.
He kissed the top of her head, wrapping an arm around her to hug her close. "Maybe you can show me that later. Right now, we should probably think about what we're going to tell your parents in the morning." Jason did not want to wake up and face reality, but he knew it needed to be done.
This was part of what she would have missed if they had spent the week apart, just laying there together, feeling safe in his arms. "For the most part? The truth." Cassie answered simply and honestly, shrugging. "That biodad sent you and you arrived in the middle of the night with nowhere else to go. They aren't particularly uptight, and they know what he's like, probably better than I do. They might suggest you stay in one of the spare rooms instead of my bed, but they won't kick you out."
"They might suggest it, but where will I actually be sleeping?" Jason knew his girlfriend well enough to know that she would get what she wanted if she could do it without hurting people. And really, what harm was there in changing where he slept?
"In my bed." She replied, smiling. The boy knew her well. There was no way she was having him sleep somewhere else when she could have him in her room. "Unless of course you don't want to..." Which she doubted. "There's a spare room across from me, so we'll have the floor to ourselves anyway, and to be honest, the only person who will actually care is Matt. The rest it's just for appearances sake."
Jason chuckled, tugging on her hair. "I flew to another continent for you and you think I'd sleep in a different bed? You're nuts, woman." Using his feet, he kicked at the covers to pull them up over their legs until he could grab it and pull it up to their shoulders. Much better. "Remind me. Matt is...?"
She loved the fact neither of them could be bothered to move enough to get the covers properly. The cover was appreciated though considering they were both naked and cooling down now that they weren't moving. Cassie snuggled further into him, getting comfortable. "Well you're mad enough that you sleep in a different bed to me at school." She pointed out, although she was just teasing. "Matt is my brother, the one who's 24, not the one with the wife and baby. He'll be coming over Christmas day and staying the night, actually they all will be." It wasn't exactly a gentle introduction to her family, and she hadn't really even told him that much about them. Somehow she and Jason tended to get... distracted when they were together.
"There's cameras there. Not here." He shifted onto his side, pulling her back into his embrace and resting his chin against her head. "Okay," he yawned, jet lag and great sex starting to catch up with him. "I'll figure it out eventually."
"Like security really cares if we're sleeping in the same room. It's not like we have curfews or room checks anymore. Excuuuuses." She joked, poking him. Really she didn't mind that they didn't tend to sleep over in each other's rooms, especially since the beds were smaller there. "You'll be fine." Sleep was sounding pretty good right now, and she could tell he was thinking the same, so she closed her eyes and relaxed.
Chuckling tiredly, Jason tugged on her hair. "We'll figure it out in the morning." Burrowing a bit deeper into the blankets, pillows and Cassie, he held her close. "For now, you talk too much. G't'sleep," he mumbled, already halfway there himself.
Morning might not be so true. She could see them sleeping into the afternoon in nothing or no-one woke them up. "Mmm, yessir." She murmured, letting herself start to drift off. It wasn't long before she and the dhampir both were asleep, entwined with each other and happy.
