Jessica ran her outstretched palm up the length of Hoyt's torso, the low hiss torn from his lips far overwhelming the screech of wildlife she could hear from miles away.

"Pretty..." She whispered, before she could stop herself. He could only groan in response.

The contrast of her icy skin to the searing heat of his was so extreme, she was surprised not to see steam rise from between them.

Her graceful fingertips left trails of gooseflesh in their wake, Hoyt making an almost whimpering noise from deep in his throat.

She moved one hand to scratch lightly at the nape of his neck, the other unbuckling his belt too fast for him to see. Quick as a flash, she slammed her lips into his before he could react.

Hoyt bucked his hips up into hers, seemingly an involuntary action. It took her a second to realise what the hardness she was feeling was and she scoffed at her own naivete.

She rolled her own hips against his in return, breaking the kiss for a moment to let him catch his breath. He gasped at the friction, a choked "Goddamn..." escaping his swollen mouth. At this, Jessica deftly thumbed open the button his worn blue Levi's.

And at this, unfortunately, Bill Compton stormed into the house...

Jessica removed herself from Hoyt this time, rising gracefully from the sofa as the boy scrambled to replace his clothing.

Bill growled, a primal sound that caused fear to rise in both Jessica and Hoyt, though she imagined hers must pale in comparison.

"Jessica." He spat out, alternating glares between herself and the boy. "What have I told you about staying away from humans without supervision?!"

She adopted a wicked grin. "Well Daddy... If you wanted to watch, all you had to do was ask..." She winked devilishly.

Her maker growled once more in reply and Sookie giggled from the entryway, watching the two vampires engage in a staring match.

Hoyt gulped nervously.


So, there you have it! What did you think?
