THIS IS a dream. This has to be. Talia reminded herself once more as she watched the stranger walked towards her, his dark, hungry eyes never leaving hers as if she was a delectable meal he had wanted to eat for a long time now. He stopped walking when he was just a step away from her that she could almost breathe in his intoxicating scent. It had a mixture of minty and woody blend and it was messing with her senses.
The stranger’s eyes roamed around her body. She was in her nightgown but the way he looked at her made it seem like she was not wearing anything. He was looking at her as if he was branding every single part of her and she could feel her body reacting to it. She could not believe that she was getting aroused by the mere sight of him.
The stranger smiled mischievously upon seeing how her nipples hardened through the silk of her gown. She wanted to run, cover herself, or just do anything than stand there like a freaking statue. But for some reason, she could not move an inch. Instead, she remained standing in front of him and tried to look at him with the same intensity. She ran her eyes up and down his body without inhibition, thinking that she only needed to get through this dream and it would be over.
Just like the other nights that he visited her room, he was shirtless. A rush of heat filled her now throbbing core. If this was a staring contest, she knew she was so close to losing. His penetrating eyes could do wonders to her body. She wanted to evade his eyes but she couldn’t.
Because deep down, Talia wanted to see more of the stranger, more of his tanned skin, more of those thick muscles… more. She gulped when she saw his erection. The bulge in his ripped jeans was getting larger which made it impossible for her to shove away her dirty thoughts. Her hands seared with the sudden desire to come closer, unzip his jeans, and give his shaft the freedom it wanted. But she couldn’t. She mustn’t. She clenched her fists. This must be another Vampire’s trick to get inside her panties and she must not give in, not after her family’s history with them.
Talia held her breath and finally managed to turn her back away from the stranger. She didn’t know how much longer she could fight this. He was so good at this. Every night, he would come in her room to tempt her. And despite her hatred to his kind, she knew that she was so close to giving in, especially now that she could not understand what was happening in her body.
Her core kept throbbing. Her body was constantly on fire these days. Every part of her was burning. Her nipples ached as if they were itching to be touched. Lately, she felt like she was no longer the owner of her body. And she desperately wanted a way out of this burning feeling, even for a moment, even if it was inside her dream.
Tonight, there was a promising look in the stranger’s eyes, as if he was telling Talia that he would soothe the pain. Maybe it was also because of the tenderness she had seen in his eyes a couple of times before that made her want to try doing it with him tonight. He had always looked at her differently compared to the other Vampires. She could not remember how many times she had dreams about different Vampires, but she was able to successfully push away every single one of them… except him.
Except tonight.
“Why are you here again?” Talia asked in a hoarse voice. No, she could not get completely angry at him because from the beginning, she knew who she was facing. She knew that he was a Vampire. Unlike the others, he neither tried to hide his fangs nor the yellow glow in his eyes.
“Didn’t you know? Then and now, there is just one room that I wanted to sneak in. And it’s yours.”
“Leave. You are not welcome here.”
She was supposed to sound stern, but her voice sounded begging instead. He really needed to leave. Her body was acting on its own. She was afraid that she would not be able to control herself if he would stay longer.
“Oh? Then let’s see about that, Talia,” he whispered, making her name sound like a prayer. Before she could even walk away, she already felt him behind her. He pressed his hardness against her ass. His hot breath was hitting her nape. He murmured her name against her ear and pulled her closer. She shivered in his touch.
“You smell divine, baby.”
Breathe, Talia, and think! She reminded herself while catching her breath. But the second his hand slipped under her night gown as he sucked her earlobe, she had lost it. She closed her eyes and tilted her head, giving him better access to her neck.
“Give in, Talia, and be mine. Don’t come to him. I can take care of you better than him. I can even provide for all of your needs better than him,” he whispered but she was not able to respond. She could not think straight, not when his other hand was busy massaging her breast as he planted wet kisses on her neck.
Her breathing became rugged when she felt his hand slid inside her underwear. She hadn’t let anyone touch her there before. Tonight was the first time and it felt… so good.
The stranger groaned when he felt how wet Talia was down there. Her knees trembled; it made her lean on his wide chest. His fingers found her clit and rubbed it, making her feel sensations she hadn’t felt before. She had never tried touching herself that’s why this was new to her and she was loving it.
