Chapter Three
“Aaron and I are going to go visit Benjamin and see if he’s my Master. I found his number in my phone,” Zheng said.
After sex, his conversation with Banner had gone from getting used to having a mate to Banner wanting them to cohabitate. Luckily, Aaron had knocked on the door and saved him from the rest of that argument.
He ignored Banner’s glare from the bar. The vampire had been angry with Zheng since he told him he wasn’t going to move in with him. They might be mates but Zheng liked his own space. Shacking up with a total stranger didn’t sound like fun. He’d wanted them to date a bit first. Luckily the bar was hopping and Banner was too busy to argue with Zheng further.
Banner had objected that mates didn’t do that. Zheng decided they needed some space and now would be a good time to solve some other mysteries about the body he’d inhabited. He was only bringing Aaron along because Benjamin wouldn’t dare do anything with Orion’s mate around.
Zheng was certain Orion would argue over Aaron going, but to his surprise the vampire nodded. “Good idea. Aaron can get you directly to Benjamin. If you were a regular vampire in his cluster he might not be willing to meet with you right away. Benjamin enjoys his petty power plays but he will be anxious for any word from me.” A wealth of satisfaction filled Orion’s eyes.
“Toying with the son-in-law are you?” Aaron asked, smiling at his mate.
“Absolutely. That insolent pup needs to be kept in his place. I can’t have him thinking he can take over my territory.” Orion scowled. “I was lenient enough for not killing him when his vampire tried to kill Aaron.”
The vampire had killed Zheng instead.
“Would your daughter let him take over your territory?” Orion’s family interactions fascinated Zheng. The more he learned about vampires the stranger they got.
Orion shrugged. “If she thought it would teach me a lesson. Vampires look at things differently. Besides, she’s never completely forgiven me for letting her mother raise her. I’m afraid I’ve never been much of a father figure.”
“You’re trying now, love.” Aaron wrapped his arms around Orion, giving him an affectionate squeeze.
Zheng cleared his throat. “Benjamin told Aaron a human couldn’t handle sucking blood. What do you think?” He might not like Orion but he knew the vampire wouldn’t lie to him.
Orion rubbed the back of his neck, as he appeared to consider the issue. “I think it depends on the person. Benjamin has had some poor experiences with humans so he tends to underestimate them. How did you feel drinking Banner’s blood?”
Amazing. Fantastic. Best flavor in the universe.
“Fine.”
He didn’t waver beneath Orion’s steady stare. He’d dealt with lowlifes for years—one grouchy vampire didn’t faze him. Not to mention Aaron wouldn’t forgive Orion if he permanently injured Zheng.
“Your bond with your mate might keep you from madness,” Orion said.
“Good to know.” Another reason Banner would no doubt want him to move in. What better reason than to keep an eye on your potentially insane mate.
