Chapter 7

I woke slowly feeling engulfed in warmth. Drake's arms and scent surrounded me and because of the slight bouncing sensation, I knew I was being carried. My ear pressed against his chest, my eyes still closed. We stopped for a moment and I could hear Drake's muffled voice. I did not really pay attention to the conversation. It was brief and we began moving again. I snuggled closer inhaling deeply and dozed off.

I opened my eyes as I was laid down softly. Drake stood above me. I blinked a few times to clear my vision then looked around. I was lying on a four-poster queen sized bed. The bedding was white silk with blue accented pillows. My gaze went to the rest of the room. The robin's egg blue walls made the gorgeous mahogany furniture stand out. The bed, dresser, vanity, and nightstands were all a matching set. White roses sat in crystal vases throughout the room. It was feminine and beautiful.

Drake's voice broke through my perusal. "Do you like it?" I looked at him a bit confused.

"Like what?" I asked.

He lifted his hand up, gesturing around him. "Your room?"

My room, not our room I thought, feeling dejected. I knew it was ridiculous to feel that way. It was obvious I couldn't stay with Drake. I told him I would not feed him and I definitely didn't want to watch him feed on someone else.

Moonlight streamed through the windows letting me know he clearly wanted to keep me separated from that aspect of his life. My room was above ground, far away from his. That was probably for the best, I thought.

Just the idea of a feeder lying beside him all morning had tears prickling my eyes. It also reminded me of our conversation in the limo. He practically admitted to not being abstinent while we were apart. I couldn't really blame him. He did believe I had left him, but still one thing that I had always felt fulfilled by was that we would be each other's first. I knew it wasn't possible anymore and it hurt.

Sighing I looked up at him. I had to put thoughts of him with other women of out of my mind. The most important thing was that he was alive and we were finally together again.

"It's lovely," I finally whispered. His shoulders sagged in visible relief.

"Good. Well, I'm going to let you get some rest and I will see you later."

He leaned down and kissing me briefly on the forehead. I was baffled. He was leaving me alone? We had not seen each other in five years. I would have thought we would spend a lot of time together getting to know each other again.

When I continued to look blankly at him he began shifting his eyes around the room looking everywhere but at me. He looked extremely uncomfortable making me completely confused.

"I, uh, have some things to do," He said finally.

His gaze landed on mine and it was as if a light bulb went off.
