Chapter Ten

Benjamin

I took Charlotte into the kitchen and made her a second dinner of garlic chicken, pasta, and broccoli. She needed to refuel her body before we went to bed.

“So, tell me more about your brother.” She said after we’d settled at the dining room table.

“Not a lot to tell. He’s a vampire like me, and looks similar, though a bit taller. He’s the vice president of my company and a very reliable person. I don’t have any bad things to say about him, other than he’s extremely nosey when it comes to my personal life.”

“Sounds like my dad. He’s always asking personal stuff. I think it’s because we’re so close and he worries about me after what my mom did to us.”

I could feel Charlotte's sudden sadness.

It made my chest ache. “Do you want to talk about it?”

She nodded and finished swallowing her food before speaking. “You’re gonna hear the story eventually anyway.”

She began to tell me about how her mother had left her and her dad when she was only five years old. She told me about the mental and emotional damage it had done to her, and how she struggled with loving and being loved. It made me want to wrap her in my arms and show her how much she was loved by me and would always be. I wasn’t going anywhere.

“I’m sorry you had to experience that, my sweet.”

She shrugged. “It’s in the past. You make me feel better somehow. Like you’re healing that part of me.”

I leaned over and kissed her. “I’m glad I can help heal your pain.”

“Me too.” She yawned and stood from the table with her plate. “I know you had big plans for me in bed, but I’m beat, and now I’ll have to get up early to finish my work before my 9:00 am class.”

I stood and took the plate from her. “I did have plans, but your wellbeing comes first. Go on up to bed and I’ll take care of this for you.” I kissed her forehead.

“Thanks. Your bed or mine?” She asked as I was going through the kitchen door. I stopped and turned to her.

“Always mine, my sweet. I never want to sleep without you beside me.” My heart skipped and I realized I too needed to eat before bed. “Do you mind if I call a feeder over? I need to recharge as well after our fun earlier.”

Charlotte seemed to think for a moment. “I guess if we’re mated, I’ll have to get used to your eating habits. I don’t mind you having someone over for dinner.” She laughed at her own joke and I smiled.

“Great. You go ahead to bed and I will take care of my feeding before I join you. It’ll be at least thirty minutes, so don’t wait up for me.”

“Okay.” Charlotte came over and gave me a goodnight kiss before heading to bed.

I called one of my male feeders over and fed in my downstairs office.

When I made it to my bedroom, Charlotte was wrapped around one of my pillows and sound asleep.
