Fourteen

Even as she felt herself fading, Kali didn’t regret giving herself to Sion so completely. It’s what she’d always dreamed of once she understood she loved him. She’d finally seen a side of him that had only been a hope inside her heart.

The side that showed he loved her too.

However, she hadn’t expected him to be as affected by her blood as he was. Feeding and making love for nearly an hour had drained her of virtually all her energy to the point that even lifting her head required too much effort. If she could feed from him again, though, she could probably be okay.

“Kali, open your eyes. Open your eyes for me,” Sion ordered in a desperate voice.

Her eyelids fluttered open slowly, and she saw his worried face just inches from hers. Clutching his hand, she said faintly, “I think I need to feed again, if that’s okay.”

The stress disappeared from his expression and he smiled. “Of course. I…I didn’t mean…I didn’t realize how long we’d gone. I didn’t mean to drain you like this.”

“I understand. I just need a little blood and I’ll feel a hundred times better.”

He carefully rolled her onto her back and offered his wrist, but then he apologized and bent his head to expose his neck. “I’m sorry. You can feed from anywhere you want. I didn’t mean to make it seem that you have to go back to my wrist.”

Kali couldn’t help but smile. “Your wrist is fine, Sion. It’s probably the easiest way too since I really don’t have the energy to sit up.”

“I can lift you up and hold you, if you want to feed from my neck.”

Cradling his face, she looked up into his grey eyes and loved that he was so worried about her. “It’s okay. I’ll just stick with your wrist. If you can just bring it down to my mouth, that would help.”

He gently pressed his wrist to her lips, and she bit into the soft skin to penetrate the vein she’d fed from all those times at the monastery. She closed her eyes and let her mind wander back to those wonderful nights when the two of them would spend hours poring over her books and then quietly sit together as she fed from him. No words ever needed to be spoken between them because what they shared needed no explanation.

She’d loved him from that first time when he sat with her all night studying the Prophecy of Idolas for any clues as to how to defeat the Archons. There in that dark cellar beneath Vasilije’s home she’d seen what few others had in Sion.

A kindness and gentleness he intentionally seemed to keep hidden from his fellow Sons and everyone else, but with her he’d gradually showed night after night.

To everyone else, Sion was the Son who was more machine than anything else. In his spare time, he repaired every appliance in the monastery, from the dishwasher to the garbage disposal, in addition to building an army of drones he claimed would help when the battle began.
