I think we can all gather what happened during the night…….
When Jessica woke up it was well past sunrise. Rolling onto her side she saw Lucius looking at her.
"Good morning." Jessica smiled up at him. As she reached up a hand to run it through his hair the sunlight caught the ring, sending the light dancing. "Oh. For a moment there I thought it was a dream."
Lucius smiled. "No dream my Princess, or well soon-to-be Queen, I spose." He lent down to softly kiss her, his lips lingering momentarily on hers before pulling away.
"Ngh." Jessica mumbled and pulled his face back down to hers. This time this kiss was passionate. He ran his tongue along her bottom lip, begging entrance. She quickly opened her mouth, allowing his tongue to slide in, and moved hers to join his. Her hands moved from his face so that one was twined in his hair and the other was tracing patterns on his back. Lucius moved one hand down to rest lightly on the top of her thigh, near her hip, the other he slid under her arm. Quickly he flipped them over so that she was lying on top of him.
Moving his hands to rest on the small of her back he pulled away gently.
"Not that I don't want to continue. It's just that I'm quite hungry."
Jessica smiled. "Why didn't you just say so? Besides, I'm hungry too."
Jessica moved her legs and sat up so she was straddling him. Pulling him up too, she moved her hair to one side of her neck and bent her head to the side. Offering her neck to him. Not needing any more motivation, he moved his mouth to her neck. He kissed her neck softly before plunging his fangs into her. Jessica gasped and moved against him, her own fangs growing as she did so. As he bit down harder she moaned, her fingers tightening in his hair and her legs wrapping around his waist. She waited until he had drunk his full, pulling his fangs slowly out of her neck and licking away the remaining blood.
Jessica smiled evilly. "My turn."
She moved her lips to his jaw, kissing the line of his jaw and throat softly before coming to rest just above his collar bone. With no hesitation her fangs grew. Biting down softly at first to break the skin and then pushing them in fast, she felt Lucius stiffen against her. She felt the blood begin to flow down her throat, the tangy, sweet taste melting her from the inside out. Wanting to taste more of him, she bit down hard; she felt rather than heard Lucius moan her name. The vibrations from his throat playing gently on her fangs. Feeling full, she slowly released her hold on Lucius's throat. Her fangs sliding back into her gums. Kissing the point on his neck where she had bitten him, she raised her eyes to meet his.
"Now." She said. Moving further up his lap. "Where were we?"
Much later (hint hint).
Jessica was lying on Lucius chest. Drifting between consciousness and sleep. Lucius hands were rubbing gently up and down her back. This has to be heaven Jessica thought.
"Oh." She said, sitting up suddenly. "I can't believe I forgot."
"Forgot what, love?" Lucius asked. Enjoying the fact that he had distracted her enough to forget something.
"I forgot about Nicola." Jessica frowned. "Lucius………………."
Lucius didn't like the sound of her tone, it seemed anxious, scared almost."What? What is it? Did someone hurt you?"
Jessica smiled, she enjoyed seeing the protective side of him come out every once in a while.
"Lucius. I want Mika gone."
Lucius visible swallowed. "Um, I'm not sure if I can…."
"Because of Alexandru right?"
"How did you know that?"
"Lucius. Do you even know who Nicola is?"
"She's Alexandru's ex."
"Do you know who she really is?"
Lucius sighed. "She's Alexandru's other half. I know, and I've tried explaining this to him. But vampires will be vampires and most are still set in the belief that love between vampires doesn't exist. Not to mention the fact that Mika has him wrapped around her little figure."
"Lucius, Nicola told me that in the absence of you or me, Alexandru takes over. This, therefore, means that Mika is in charge. I do not feel safe living in a place where your best friends 'girl friend' is more power hungry than your uncle. If don't feel safe, and I'm going to be Queen soon, how on the earth do you think your staff feel?"
"I honestly don't know."
"Let me sum it up for you. Mika stole one girl's partner, before realizing that Alexandru had more power. As soon as she did, she stole him from Nicola his other half. The staff as a whole hates her, and because Alexandru won't hear one bad word against her, which means that you won't either, they are stuck with her."
"I don't know what I can do, you're asking me to hurt my best friend."
"I'll make this simple for you. And I hate doing this to you. But I can't live in a place where my only friend and all of the staff feel threatened. So it's simple Lucius. Either she goes or I do."
