Dark Healer

Chapter 3

By Michiru

Um… I got an actual review…. Wow I'm surprised actually… wasn't expecting one… thanks! Um… I'll try to get more people to read and write Christine Feehan fanfics… but I'm afraid it's not to easy… especially for me who's not very well known OR popular.

Um… also I haven't updated because I borrowed to Christine Feehan Books and I've been working on finishing reading them…. So… sorry about that… *sigh* Also been trying to be a good little girl and actually UPDATE my web comic… which I haven't touched since I turned 18… heh heh…

Oh… and I made like a HUGE spelling error in the last chapter that aurora_light managed to find. THANK YOU! Umm… the thing was… it wasn't Janevon Sensing Danger from Eric…. It was the other way around. Janevons a Carpathian… so it's kind of a no duh that a human male would feel he's dangerous… well he is… but yah. ^-^

And also… I'm tired of TRYING to make these italics work for when they are speaking mind to mind…. So instead when they talk using telepathy it'll be in-between THESE lovely ladies! ~ ~ how do you like THEM apples!?! He he

Nittia looked about her as she slinked down the stairs. She had avoided Eric and the rest of the group all day. Only going down to grab something to eat. It was 6 now and she didn't want to be late for her meeting with Janevon. The thought of Janevon caused her heart to start beating faster. She felt like a woman sneaking out of the house to meet with her forbidden lover.

The lobby seemed empty for the most part as she wandered through, only a few people huddled over their warm mugs as the cold rain flashed outside. Looking at her wrist watch Nittia found that she had 20 minutes left until 6.

A door opened on the second floor and she heard the distinctive sound of Eric's squeaky boots on the floor boards up above. She found herself moving swiftly to the only exit which was the door outside. She didn't want to deal with Eric right now, nor did she want to get caught and receive another lecture from Eric. All she wanted was the calm and comfort that only Janevon could give, and she was intrigued as to why she felt herself so attracted to this Carpathian that didn't seem to be her life mate. She had seen Carpathians before and they had not even sparked a small hint of life in her body. They looked nice but that was all.

She wanted to talk to him again to get as much of him as she could before she left back for America. The plane for home was in just a few days and she didn't want to walk with a bunch of noisy Christine Feehan fans that didn't believe her when she said they were real, the ones who never really did care if she was hurting. Didn't even notice that she was quite and drawn in… and Janevon did care, he did notice, and that was what she needed right now.

She quickly pulled on a green cape she had left in the closet as she saw Eric starting down the stairs. With out a second glace she hurried out of the Inn fighting the wind and rain as she opened the door. The other people in the lobby looked disdainfully at the door and the cold coming in as she opened it. Unfortunately it also gained the attention of Eric as he was coming down the stairs but all he saw as she hurried out the door was green cloth before it disappeared into the night.

His eyebrows drew together curious and soon moved to the closet to don his water proof jacket and followed out the door. He looked about for any sign of some one but the rain was pouring down so hard he could see no one. He drew the hood of his jacket closer as the water flew into his eyes stinging them. He fought the wind moving about looking for footprints or anything else that might give away the location of the person wearing green.

Nittia watched as Eric wandered about the place in the rain and found that she would have to move even farther away from the inn to avoid being found. The wind seemed to blow against her back gently nudging her towards the woods. She felt the night calling her and with out thought her feet had begun moving towards the woods.

Not to long after this the cold began seeping into her pours as it had swiftly socked through her cape and was now keeping the water right next to her skin. She was shivering but continued to walk on sensing animals hidden in their dens from the rain. She smiled as she felt a wolf pack out in the night searching for food. How far from the inn had she gone?

She tried to look at her wrist watch but it was to dark to tell if it was 6 or 8. She wondered if Janevon was there at the inn yet or not. That was when she felt him, right behind her tall with his long hair flying about him widely as the wind tossed his locks about. She turned to see him wearing nothing but a shirt and jeans that were so soaked they stuck to his shapely legs. Her heart pounded wildly as he padded towards her as the wolf had the night before. His silver Violet eyes gazing fiercely into hers he seemed like a character out of a book.

She wished so desperately that this wild man was hers but at the same time felt her heart droop knowing it wasn't to be. He was only a few feet from her as he moved his hand up to tilt her drooping head up. She felt fire racing through her body with that touch and the cold was suddenly forgotten.

He looked down into her expressive doe like eyes finding sorrow in them once again but of a different nature.

"Who did you leave the Inn?" His silky voice asked wrapping her up more in his spell.

"Eric was chasing me." She replied without thinking as she wanted to just fling her arms about him and beg him to take her. To take away her virginity, she felt she didn't care if he wasn't her life mate, he was the first one to ever make her feel this way and she was afraid it might be the last.

He felt rage welling within him at the thought of Eric even touching Nittia, he was curious to find it existing him but he fought it down and set it aside to mull over later.

"I… I mean… I was trying to avoid talking to him…." Stuttering she tried to explain what had really happened.

"Why would you try to avoid him? Isn't he you're friend?"

She looked away muttering softly, "A friend trying to get in my bed…"

A normal human wouldn't have been able to hear her muttered words but Janevon had and it enraged him more, "He will not be getting in you're bed." He said softly anger slightly evident in his voice.

"Of course he won't." She replied wondering what had caused him to become angry.

Janevons' hand moved like a lovers caress along her skin sending shivers to go through her body. It stopped at the back of her head tangling it into her silky locks, his face slowly inching its way toward her lips. Nittia's heart beat fast with each antagonizing minute as she looked from his perfect lips to his perfect violet eyes.

~Janevon have you contacted the girl yet?~

He moved away swiftly realizing what he was doing. He had never done this to a human woman before, why was he doing it now? Even so his grandfather would not be pleased if he found that he had been taking his liberties on the physic woman who just might be the next lifemate of one of the ancients or the Carpathian men who were struggling to fight the beast down. Just as he was always fighting the beast, ever since he was a child the beast had been stronger in him than any other Carpathian. He had lost all feelings and colors at such a young age he had forgotten what it was even like. Most males at least could remember that… he could not.

Nittia looked up at him dazed and confused, he saw the hurt in her eyes and cursed himself while fighting down the beast inside him demanding he take her.

"I am sorry Nittia… I did not mean to do that…" he wasn't sure if he was sorry for almost kissing her, he was just so confused!

He took a few calming breaths before replying to his grandfather.

~Yes I have contacted her. She is with my right now.~

~Good bring her to my home. The other males in this area are here with me. Perhaps she is the lifemate to one of them.~

Janevon fought the beastly urge to take her into his arms and take her far away from all of them and keep her for himself. ~Yes…~

Mikhail seemed silent for a moment before asking ~Are you alright Janevon?~

~I will be okay… I just don't know how safe it is to be shoving her into a large group of males just hoping she might be one of their lifemates.~

~It is something we have always done for the woman when they become of age. She knows of this, you told me you're self.~

~Yes…. I did~ He was silent a moment as Nittia looked at him as she listened to their conversation, ~I will bring her… ~

~Good~ with that Mikhail broke the connection. Janevon was left looking down at Nittia fighting the urge to take her away.

"So… you're taking me to see if I'm a lifemate to some one?"

Janevons eyes looked hidden as his bluish hair glimmered in the heavy rain, water dripping down his perfect skin.

"…yes…"

She could feel his struggle inside fighting the beast, and she felt herself walking up to him her hand touching his skin gently. ~Janevon…~ she spoke softly in his mind trying to help him fight the beast within him.

His head jerked up, his violet eyes looking strait into her's. Her touch had only made the urge to take her grow stronger. He surprised her as he wrapped an arm behind her and kissed her possesivly.

Her world went on fire as the rain was forgotten and the ground shook beneath her feet. Her explored her mouth pressing her soft body against his hard demanding one. She moaned softly against his lips causing him to grow hard with painful need.

His hand moved to the back of her head gently tilting her head to give him access to her silky throat. His mouth moved down, his warm breath tickling and exciting her skin.

She felt a warm heat pool down between her legs as his lips touched her skin she gasped, his teeth nibbling along his soft skin.
