It's been more than year since I updated and I want to really apologize to all of you readers.

I will be honest and say that I lost all of my inspiration and couldn't keep writing this story. There were many times throughout the last year when I tried to continue and finish writing this story but couldn't come up with anything. I have the stupid habit that when I envision the ending of any story that I am writing, I stop writing it down because I know the ending and prefer to start writing something new. A habit I wish I could get rid of.

BUT just two days ago I was going over the files and read all of my three stories and couldn't remember the actual ending to this story and these news ideas for the story crashed down on me. I could finally finish this chapter that had been sitting in my flash drive.

Again I apologize.

I want to thank Clarrisse and Rachel-rob-Sandwich for reviewing!

Chapter 21

-Diana looked up at him just as he looked down at her. Their eyes connected. Dedrick leaned down and kissed her. She palmed his face and kissed him back. It was time. This was their time and finally their moment. It felt right. Their wait had come to an end.

Dedrick moved her towards the bed and dropped her at the center of it before looming above her. Diana wrapped her arms around him bringing him down to kiss him. He let the kiss start slow but quickly took over and turned it hard and possessive.

Spreading her legs apart, Diana wrapped them around his waist and pressed him down to her. Dedrick groaned against her mouth in approval. He sat them up and pulled her close to his chest. His hands moved to her back and zipped down her dress. Moving her back, Dedrick watched the dress fall from her body and pool at her waist.

Diana gripped the middle of Dedrick's shirt and ripped it open until it slipped from his body. Her hands ran up his chest and behind his neck until her fingers gripped the hair on his nape. Her eyes traced up his chin, to his lips, nose and finally his eyes. Their eyes connected. Dedrick gripped her waist and his thumbs running circles on her sides. He pressed her to his bare chest and hissed at the contact. He leaned down and took her mouth again. She moved, rubbing her breasts against him. His hands moved up her back building up the friction.

"Dedrick I…I need you." moaned Diana against his mouth. She kissed down from his jaw to his neck.

He pushed her back into the mattress. Her hands fell above her head and her breasts moved up and down as she breathed. "Not as much as I need you."

Dedrick got rid of his pants and discarded her dress and panties before descending on her. Her eyes went heavy lidded when his cock poked at her sex and ran up her stomach. He palmed and lifted her thigh then cupped her nape to bring her up to him. Cradling her to his body, he took her lips. Diana wrapped her arms around his back to get closer to him. She sucked on his fang and felt it extend before it raked over tongue. With a groan, Dedrick sucked on her tongue in a kiss taking the blood that spilled from it.

He pressed his lips against her own before he moved them down to her breasts. Dedrick took one to his mouth and sucked on it before letting it go with a pop. He went to the other and sucked on it but before letting it go, he pierced it with his fangs. He felt her groan and her body lift to press to his. Lifting his face to meet her gaze. "Now you will have my bite, my mark over your heart. Your heart that belongs to me alone!"

"Always." She felt certain of her own feelings when she whispered to him. "Make love to me Dedrick. I want to feel you deep inside me, feel and have your mark deep inside me."

He smirked against her lips. "I will mark you with my seed so many times that you will lose count, love."

"Yes, yes! Make me yours. Own me. Dominate me like the Vampire and man I have come to know." Diana moaned as she took his mouth.

He knew his Bride was a wild one but he didn't know this wild though he should have expected it. Dedrick plunged a finger inside her and groaned. "Need to…prepare you."

Diana arched her back as she felt his finger pull out and come back in with two. She ran her thumb over the tip of his erection and felt his groan as he trapped his mouth over hers. She broke the kiss as she got on her knees. She gripped his shoulders and moved her hips over his fingers. Dedrick rubbed his palm on her clit and felt her tremble in his embrace. He took her nipple and bit before he sucked. Diana pierced her nails on his back as she moaned to the ceiling and came on his fingers.

He groaned and pumped his fingers deep inside her as her sex hugged his fingers. He unwrapped his arm around her waist and watched her fall back on his…their bed. He watched her chest rise and fall as she tried to catch her breath. Dedrick savored the taste of her as licked his fingers clean.

Dedrick loomed over her and spread her legs open. He teased her by running his cock along her sex. She moaned and gripped his arms as she lifted her hips to try and get him inside. He pressed her hips down. She groaned. "Don't…don't torture me Dedrick…"

"Look at me Diana." Dedrick growled low. She looked up his face and her beautiful metallic gray eyes were caught in his gaze. "With this, I, Dedrick Prince of Vampires take you, Diana of Artemesia, as my own."

Dedrick thrust and slammed all the way inside her. She arched her back and cried out. He groaned and savored the feel of her, of finally being deep inside her. Her sex gripped his cock tightly as though it had been made to fit him and only him. She raised her hips beneath him, her sex was stretching to accommodate him. Dedrick pulled almost all the way out and pumped deep inside her. He pulled back but her sex sucked him right back in.

"Fuck me…fuck me faster De-Dedrick." Diana moaned gripping his hair with her fists. "Make me remember this night for all of time, love."

He couldn't ever deny her anything much less sex because he wanted her more than his own life. He needed her more than he needed blood and would always. He wouldn't be slow or tender to her, not now. Dedrick had to have her now to make her his.

"I will take you so many times love that you will feel empty when I finally pull out." Gripping her waist, he pulled back before he slammed back and forth in a relentless rhythm. Their skin slapping each other as their bodies made contact.

Diana's hands fell back into the bed and gripped the sheets. He was so thick and long. He filled her completely and made her feel complete. She moaned to the ceiling and tried moving her hips to meet him half way but Dedrick's grip wouldn't let up. He kept her in place and kept pumping into her very core. She wrapped her legs around his hips and let him have all of her. "D-Dedrick I…I…I'm coming!"

Dedrick felt her body tremble underneath him and felt her sex milk his cock. He groaned and wrapped an arm around her waist. He drove deep inside her. Her breasts bounced every time their bodies met. He pinched one and leaned down to take her lips. Diana wrapped her arms around his and kissed him back. She ran her lips to his strong jaw and whispered at his ear. "I love you Dedrick."

She pierced her fangs on his shoulder blade and drank. Dedrick shuddered and slammed one last time before he came deep inside her. He growled to the ceiling. Finally Diana was truly his and would only be his. He leaned down and punctured his fangs on her shoulder blade. He moaned against her when he felt her come again.

As the last of his seed was wrung from him, Dedrick closed her wound and leaned up. He kissed his Diana and she responded with the same force. "I love you more my dearest Diana."

"If you do then show me again and again Dedrick." Diana smirked. He watched her roll around until she was on her hands and knees. She looked back at him. "Won't you?"

Dedrick hissed. Entering her from behind, he took her again. He would never get enough of her, never. He would also learn that his Diana was an insatiable creature just like him.

-Dedrick wrapped and arm around his Diana who had finally succumbed to sleep just as the sun was rising. Her cheeks and the rest of her body was still flushed from their joining. He moved and she moved with him. When he had been about to pull out, she had stopped him in his tracks.

"Don't." She had pleaded with her eyes. Her hand had roamed down between them to where they were connected. "I feel complete with you here deep within me."

He hadn't wanted to pull out either. Dedrick felt one with her and complete just as she had mentioned.

Dedrick spooned her and wrapped both his arms around her like chains. She sighed and rubbed closer to her as their legs twined.

Looking down at her once again, he promised that nothing and no one would get in between them. Never again.
