“Emelia, I’d walk through Hell for you and come back smiling. Don’t you know that by now?”
His words sounded familiar because it was something Xander told me only days before. How did I get so lucky to get not one, but two mates who cared for me unconditionally? But the thing was, I’d do the same for them. Admitting it was easier than I thought.
I put my hand on Matias’ face and leaned forward kissing him gently on the lips. Pulling back, I watched him open his eyes and smile radiantly. I hoped I told him everything I felt in my kiss, and it seemed as if I had.
I leaned down to kiss him again, this time letting my need outweigh my emotions and put all of the lust I’d felt for him in the last few days. I thought about the day before, the first time he let me feed from him, how I licked his body clean of his blood. I thought about me being sandwiched between him and Xander earlier that morning and how good it felt to have both of their hands and mouths on me at the same time.
Matias gripped my head below my ears and pulled me in closer, deepening the kiss. I needed to be closer still so I wrapped my arms around his neck and pushed my chest next to his, but it still wasn’t close enough. I didn’t think I’d ever be close enough until he was inside of me, a part of me.
My vampire mate then did something I wasn’t expecting. He reached up and wrapped his hands around my forearms, dislodging them from his body. I looked at him with confusion and he just smiled at me.
“Don’t look at me like that,” he chuckled. “First we work, then I can make you mine.” He pointed his head in the general direction of the carnage the two of us just made.
I looked over at the dead bodies and back to Matias, pouting. “Is it bad that it kind of turns me on?” I asked.
He let out another booming laugh. I loved the way it looked on him.
“Not at all,” he told me, “but for our first time, and our mating, I want to take my time and I kind of feel like this needs to be taken care of before I can take care of you. The next time we can fuck in the blood of our enemies. What do you say about that?”
It was my turn to laugh out loud. “It’s a deal!” I jumped up and walked over to the closest dead body and kicked it. “Now, what do we do?” I asked. “I’ve never had to dispose of a dead body before.”
“What? You think I have?” He looked offended but I knew he wasn’t.
“Please,” I scoffed. “You are ‘the Butcher’ after all.”
He moved his head from side to side as if he were considering it. “True, but it’s been a while for me so I need to think about it.”
“I have an idea.” Soleil said from my subconscious.
I stopped moving and my eyes went wide with surprise. For some reason, I could hear her loud and clear. Up to that point, it was all just feelings and even when she talked to me before, it wasn’t actual words, but just an understanding of what she was trying to say to me.
“What’s the matter?” Matias asked, suddenly right in front of me.
“Soleil, my dragon,” I told him. “She talked to me.”
“I’m still here,” she said, sort of annoyed. “I could eat them, if you’d like.”
“What?! Ewwww.” I scrunched my face in disgust.
“It was just a suggestion,” she pouted. “At least I have an idea.”
“Well, I’m not open to the idea of eating them,” I told her.
“You drink their blood. Why is this different?” she asked. I didn’t have a good answer for her because probably if I let her take over, I wouldn’t have much of a problem with it as I do in my human-like form.
“Because… I’d have four adult bodies in my stomach and I wouldn’t be able to change back, that’s why.”
Matias seemed to enjoy listening to my side of the conversation a little too much by the amused look on his face.
“Excuses, excuses. You’d just have to stay a dragon for a little while until they digested. Would that be so bad?”
“Yes! I have plans, Soliel! And I can’t do them as a dragon!”
“You want to mate with your vampire, I get it. I’ll think of something else.”
I closed my eyes and let out a small laugh.
“You know, I think you’d be kind of hot as your dragon,” Matias smiled and ran his hands over my waist.
“You have no idea,” I smiled back. Then I got an even better idea than Soleil’s. She huffed at me, but was excited at the idea of being able to come out twice in one day. “Bring the bodies outside, will ya? I think I have a good plan and you’ll get to see my dragon after all.”
He smiled wider then lifted one of the minion’s bodies up and over his shoulder before walking out the open sliding glass door. The pool was an indoor/outdoor pool and the windows were giant panes of glass that could push back into the wall creating a giant open space. I was happy to hear Xander didn’t destroy this area of the house when he went on his rampage after I was changed. I loved it and I made a note when I first saw it to have one in my house, whenever I got settled somewhere.
Matias came back inside and grabbed another body. Feeling responsible for what I did to Di, I didn’t want to make my mate be the one to carry her out, so I lifted her up using my vampire strength and carried her outside, laying her on top of one of the other bodies.
I moved further into the grass and said the invisibility spell, focusing on myself,
