Chapter 12
Lily slowly came back to consciousness. She looked around and saw that she was in her bedroom. Barry brought her back from the hospital. The last thing she remembered was fighting Madison and the explosion of the parking garage. A soft groan escaped her. She shifted into her Succubus form. The one thing she hadn’t wanted Barry to see. Now there was no telling how he would treat her.
The thought of Barry caused her body to cramp. Whenever she had to change forms in the past, she would be drained and weak for days unless she found some poor unsuspecting souls and drained them dry. Tears filled her eyes as the unbidden image of draining Barry dry came to her mind.
She heard the door to her room open. Her eyes rolled to the back of her head as she was surrounded by the scent of his cologne and whatever else that made him smell so good. “Go away,” she slurred.
“Not happening, Baby,” Barry said as he crossed the room. He ignored her whines as he sat next to her on the bed and touched her forehead. “You still have a fever,” he observed.
“It’ll break,” Lily moaned as she tried to push him away. After a moment she fell limp and tired against the mattress.
Barry frowned as he looked at her. “What’s going on, Lily?” When her eyes opened, he remembered the way she looked that night he found her in the club. “You used too much of your energy didn’t you?” he asked. At her nod he cursed lowly. He stood and paced from the bed to the closet and back. His eyes raked over her frame before he went out of the room.
If she had the energy to cry, Lily was sure she would have right there. As it was, she turned her back to the door and curled up into a ball. She was about to start drifting off when Barry came back in the room and closed the door behind him. “Barry,” she said in a whisper.
He went over to the bed and climbed in behind her. As he spooned against her back, he trailed chaste kisses up her shoulder. “Here’s the thing,” he started. “I can’t stand back and let you suffer like this.” He noted the way her body trembled against his and gently took her earlobe between his teeth. “But I also don’t want you to think I’m a bastard for using this situation to get you in bed again.”
“I could kill you,” she said shaking her head. A gasp escaped her when one of his hands grasped her breast and squeezed.
“You like me too much,” Barry said smugly. When a laugh escaped her, he pressed his lower body against her covered backside. “It’s true, isn’t it?” he asked as he lavished her neck and collar with nips and kisses.
Lily turned towards him and looked into his eyes. He was determined to help her. She reached up, ignoring the way her hand trembled as she touched his cheek.
