I could see the battle of wills playing out behind his eyes, could smell the doubt on him warring with what he wanted to do.

I won’t lie. A part of me was weirded out, considering I was trying to reenact the epitome of vampire cliches—the young woman taken by the centuries old vamp with far more experience than she could ever hope to match.

Fuck cliches!

“The hell with this,” he snarled, spinning us around so now I was pressed against the wall, as he rammed his tongue into my mouth again.

In the space of seconds, it was like he became a hundred-handed titan, his palms working their way down my body until he grasped hold of the clasp of my jeans and ripped them open.

“Don’t stop,” I growled into his ear, pushing him back just enough to pull my top over my head and toss it to the side. “Whatever you do, don’t. . .”

“Shit!” he cried, backing away and doing exactly what I’d just told him not to.

Grr! The men in my life were as bad as . . . me! They didn’t listen for shit. “Get back here right now and. . .”

“I hate to be saying this, Darlin’, especially at a time like this. . .”

Oh god, please don’t pick now to tell me about your long-lost love Colin!

“But I ain’t got no protection on me.”

“What?” I asked, my hormones battling with coherent thought.

“When I was a vamp, things were different. We can’t . . . well, you know. But I’m human again, or close enough to it.”

“You’ve gotta be fucking kidding me,” I wheezed, not sure which power was dominant now other than it was way to hot for this shit.

“Wait!” he cried, smiling. “I got an idea.”

“You’d better not be about to suggest third inp. . .”

“There’s a drug store just up the street. I can be back in five.” He stopped and stared at me. “Why? What did you think I was gonna say?”

“Um . . . nothing.” His eyes met mine, so I added, “Well, what are you waiting for? Get moving!”

“Are you sure?”

“Don’t make me call my axe.”

“Just checking.”

He quickly straightened his clothes and headed out the door, giving me a chance to make things perfect.

A part of me was tempted to strip down naked right there in the living room, but what if Boo returned from her ice cream trip? I’d never hear the end of that.

So instead I ran upstairs to my room, making like this was one of those slow burn romances where the two leads finally decided to do it—frantically shoving everything off my bed to make room for us.

That left me, currently wearing the most boring, unsexy outfit possible. Hell, even my underwear was more likely to be labeled granny panties than any sort of turn on. I needed to fix that.

I ripped open my dresser drawers looking for the sexiest underwear I had, which wasn’t all that sexy. Note to self, see if Serena wants to go shopping at some point.
