CHAPTER THIRTY-EIGHT

Onyx

I didn’t think I could hurt any more than I already do, but when Matthew dismissed me it cut me even deeper. He wasn’t even willing to talk. It was so obvious that I still affect him. I know he wants me. I know he loves me. I felt it when I kissed him. Why does he have to be so damn stubborn? Can’t he see that we have a rare opportunity at a second chance?

After days of brooding over it, I decided I can’t deal with it anymore. I’m going to fix it, at least temporarily, or so I tell myself. I know where this road leads, but I just don’t want to hurt anymore. Javier walks in to my room. He is pleasing to look at, but he is human. The only thing that makes him special is, somewhere in his bloodline an ancestor paired with a Fae and made his blood a drug to us. Shifter blood is a rush, but Fae blood, we would do almost anything for it once we’re addicted. I should know, I went through it after I lost Matthew the first time. It was the only way I could endure the torture I was going through, both from losing my love, and the abuse of the previous Master vampire that took me in. No one else knows, but the only reason the Kage won’t turn Javier is that he doesn’t want to give up his blood addiction. Humans with potent Fae blood are rare. It isn’t like he can go down to the corner and pick one up. Javier is a blood whore willing to give up his soul for the chance of power. He is so blind that he thinks if he re-acquires his former “property,” Kage will find him worthy enough to turn. Imbecile. Unfortunately for me, he is the only one that can end this pain in my heart for a while. I abhor the idea of touching him because God knows where he’s been. It isn’t that I can catch a disease; it’s just the principle.

“You finally want a taste, Onyx? I knew you’d come around eventually. Once an addict, always an addict.”

I hate his smugness. I should drain him dry, but then we would have other problems. I would either go stark raving mad, or Kage would behead me. Either way, it wouldn’t be worth it. I want to get high, not go crazy or get dead. I’ll have to put up with his shit, but I won’t make it easy on him in bed. Oh, yes, I forgot to mention, his price for the blood is your body. He has a thing for vampire lovers. Male, female, it doesn’t matter. He likes to feel like he has the power. The only one who doesn’t give him payment is Kage, no he takes blood and body. He is teaching Javier well. I’ve heard stories.

“Let’s get on with it. I’m not here for games, Javier,” I say as I remove my shirt.
