Zoey's POV:
So beautiful, perfect, his voice, oh his voice! Sure, I'm only a fledgling and he's a professor but wow, words could never explain the way I felt when he touched me. Our secret meetings, the way he kissed made my world spin like it was on wheels.
There he sat, across the room. Loren Blake, the sexiest vampyre in all of House of night. Don't get me wrong, I love Erik, I really do but when I kiss him its like kissing a very inexperienced little boy. I know hes had his experience, Aphrodite on her knees is all I have to say, but he sure doesn't show it. Kissing Loren on the other hand was amazing. He was experienced, he was a man.
Man, a three letter word that makes all the difference in the world.
Erik's POV:
She seemed distracted, staring off into space. The tattoo's cuddled her face. Sapphire crescent moon on her forehead and delicate patterns ran down her cheeks. She was perfect. I looked around the table to see Shaunee and Erin, better known as the twins, staring in my direction.
"What!?" I asked nervously. They said nothing but glared at me like they were up to no good. Again. Then went back to gouging their salad's. Damien shrugged his shoulders and looked down. The table was unusually quiet.
Finally Stevie Rae broke the silence. "Why are y'all not sayn' a word? Usually I can't yous to stop talkn'!" Her blond curls clung to her face while she tried to hold back the laugh we could all see coming. Finally she couldn't hold it back anymore and burst out laughing.
Zoey's POV
I snapped back to reality when Stevie Rae started laughing. She was my best friend and I could hear that adorable Okie twang even when she laughed. "Whats so funny..?" I asked. "Little country girl here like to laugh." Shaunee told me laughing. Damien sighed his gay little sigh. He was drop dead gorgeous but we had the same taste, in guys. Yes Damien is gay, has a boyfriend and is another one of my best friends.
I glanced in Lorens direction and saw him staring at me too, I quickly looked away. Erik leaned close to me. "I don't like how professor Blake looks at you. Like your some little girl he could persuade into anything." I turned to face him and could see the suspicion and hurt in his eyes. "Don't worry, I love you, never forget that. Plus he kind of scares me." I was lying and I could see that Erik was left unconvinced. I hated lying to him and I didn't want to hurt him.
Damn, Aphrodite can rub off on people, I'm turning into a whore...
