Chapter 10 Well , a little more Myrnin / Claire interaction and then they have to rest for a while.

Thank you, Enolagay87 for your review - here it the next chapter for you :)

As always, I appreciate any comment - pros and cons - maybe I can get more than 1 review out of this one :)

Claire stormed out of Myrnin's room. " I don't know what you think, but I believe my dreams were real - I saw Shane -at least his body and whatever Magnus plans are, it involves him, too."

Myrnin nodded , he seemed somber and worried.

"How are you doing , my sweet little Claire . I don't want that you have to go thru that - loose Shane - again..."

" Thank you...", Claire walked to Myrnin and looked up to him. Myrnin wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her just a bit closer.

" I know, it won't be easy, but I will manage. " Claire tried to look brave."... it's not him - not Shane - and WE WILL destroy it "

" I know we will. We just have to figure out how "

Claire rose to her tip toes to reach Myrnins lips. He kissed her softly then lifted her up like a child and she wrapped her legs around him. Claire was basically sitting on Myrnins hips and with her upper body higher than Myrnin. She bend down to him and started to nibble Myrnins ear, while he walked back into the bedroom.

When he reached the bed, he slowly lowered Claire on it .

She is so beautiful , Myrnin thought , while he was watching her lying on his bed - and she is mine - something , Myrnin still could not totally comprehend. Claire winked at him and without a word changed between them, both undressed in lighting speed.

Claire shivered , when Myrnin's well formed body mounted hers , but it was not the cold of his flesh that made her shiver, it was excitement - lust and longing for him. He gently covered her face and neck with kisses. They grew harder and more demanding, while his emotions rose to new levels he never experienced before. Claire felt his arousal grow stronger and she willingly opened her legs to grant him entrance.

Claire's warm body embraced Myrnin and never before he wished , to last it for eternity. Claire's throat released the noise of absolut pleasure and was answered by Myrnins echo of total bliss.

"Turn around " , Claire panted and with one move , Myrnin was on his back and Claire on top. She sat up with her legs wrapped around Myrnin's and looked down on him still connected with him in the most intimate way.

She smiled at him with the most precious smile he has ever seen. Her hair falling beside her face and framing it to the most wonderful picture. Claire's eyes shining with happiness and diving into Myrnin's .

For a moment , time stood still, then Myrnin 's , eyes followed Claires neck , over her shoulders to her breasts , which were perfectly formed and ripe as peaches. His gaze went down to her belly button and back up to her face.

" You are perfect , my Love ", and he closed his eyes for a short while, because he felt his emotions taking over. He knew himself too well. Total bliss came with a price for Vampires - and the feeling of bloodlust grew stronger in him , ...not only feeling her, triggering all his senses - no - tasting her, making a part of himself , devour her...

I HAVE to stop this , Myrnin thought , when he closed his eyes. If I want to be with Claire, I have to get this feeling under total control...when he opened his eyes again, the red was almost gone and brown started to dominate again.

When they finally rested , Claire nestled on Myrnin's chest.

" During my life ,I loved a few women..." Myrnin started , " some more than others ...I only told once a person, what I will tell you now..." and he waited for a few seconds " Claire , I love you ..." and he lifted her head towards his.

" I love you Claire Danvers and I never will leave you ...and that is a long time for a Vampire " , Myrnin smiled at her.

"I know..." Claire whispered and turned her head back on his chest. She knew, she loved him , too, but for some reason, she could' t tell him - maybe because she heard the melancholy in his voice and that she had to made a decision some day - but not today.

I love you too, Myrnin, Claire whispered voiceless into his chest and sleep fell over them.
