Chapter Eighteen

“Happen,” I said and sat up with a start. I’d been in the middle of trying to get some kind of point across to Luc but couldn’t quite remember what it had been. At least I didn’t wake up thinking I’d had a weird dream this time. Reality was turning out to be far stranger than any dream I’d ever had.

Feeling even colder than usual, I looked down to see that I was totally naked. On closer inspection, I amended that to almost totally naked. A sack had been wrapped around each of my hands. “What the hell?” I don’t remember putting these on last night.

Luc, even more naked than me without sacks on his hands, was kneeling beside me. “You must feed and then you can finish reading the journal.”

“That’s not going to happen,” I repeated very succinctly. “What’s with the sacks?”

A trifle shamefacedly, he shrugged. “I do not want to burn to death from holy fire.”

“Since there is no way we are going to have sex, you can take these things off me.” I shook the sacks but they stayed annoyingly in place. He’d used my shoelaces to tie them on. Very inventive. He’s been busy while I was dead. Accurately reading Luc’s expression, I stood up before he could dive on me.

Standing as well, pretending he hadn’t been about to pounce, Luc backed me up against the wall. “I handled our first time together badly.” He ran a finger lightly down my cheek and I suppressed a shiver. “I wish to make up for that.” He smiled suggestively and dropped his gaze to my breasts. My traitorous nipples instantly hardened. They didn’t care that I’d made myself a promise. They remembered what it felt like to have Luc’s cold mouth on them.

“No.” I put my sack enclosed hands out and stopped him from coming any closer. “I’m not going to let you demean yourself again.” I was almost in dry tears at the thought of it.

“Let me take care of your hunger, Natalie.” He pressed his chest against my hands, bringing our bodies closer together. “As you shall take care of mine.”

“I thought you didn’t crave flesh anymore,” I said in desperation.

“Only yours,” he said then closed the distance. His lips touched mine and any thought of further resistance fled. His hands clutched my hips and pulled me closer. My hand slipped off his head instead of tangling in his hair as I’d intended.

“This is ridiculous,” I managed then he was lifting me and pressing me back against the cold wall. Suddenly, it wasn’t ridiculous at all. I wrapped my legs around him and put my strangely gloved hands on his shoulders. Luc thrust his tongue in my mouth at the same time as he pierced me below.

“Oh, G-G-G. Shit,” I moaned as he kissed my neck and took my breasts in his hands. Then he started thrusting and coherent thought left me. For the first time since I’d died, I was warm. Heat flashed through me from the inside out as he increased his speed and tempo.
