I was in shock. How were we supposed to survive being in the temple with him all night long, asleep!
"I I don't think that's wise," I managed to choke out.
"Oh, of course it is. The night is a very dangerous place. You don't know what lurks in the night, other then us of course, but we're quite friendly," he said, with a glimmer of suggestion in his voice.
"I suppose if it's not too much trouble," I said quietly.
" No trouble at all, my dears," he said, rising. "Now you'll need a place to sleep tonight, and I'm afraid that this is my living quarters. Trix, Sasha, find a place for my guests to sleep," he said. At least we won't be in the same room, I thought, relieved.
"Hey, Devistria? Do you really think it's smart to spend the night with the leader of seduction?" Daena asked.
"No, but what can we do?" I responded, defeated.
The two vampires came back.
"Oh dear, are you quite sure? How inconvenient," but he didn't sound all that unhappy. "I see that we have had a cave in, my darlings and has only this room to spare. My lady friends will have to leave," he said. I felt relieved, but guiltily disappointed.
Then all the succubi had left as bats, leaving us here alone with the Count.
"I thought he meant us," said Daena.
"Me, too," said I.
"Oh, of course not! My succubi can take care of themselves. You shall be staying here with me. My friends left to make room," I loved the way he said 'with me'
though I knew I shouldn't.
"Oh, but you cannot sleep with your armor on! That would be terribly uncomfortable! I do have some spare sleeping clothes which are quite comfortable," he said with a smile. There was one of those screen things in the back of the chamber. Daena and I walked over to see what there was to choose from. Let's just say there was quite a variety, but it could all fit into a small bag. Daena and Devistria changed into the one that cover them the most, a corset like, black and red top with matching panties, silk. We walked out timidly, blushing to death.
"Ah, you feel much better now, don't you?" he asked. We stopped near the platform.
"Now, would you like to sleep now or ……talk?" Count Dovula asked. "I personally, would like to get to know you ladies better," he said in a decent, pleasant tone that surprised me, but was deeply appealing. We sat on the end of the platform together.
" Come now, I don't bite. Not anymore at least," he gave a small chuckle. We didn't move an inch. Suddenly he lashed out and caught us both up in his arms and fell to the middle of the platform, us plastered to his sides.
"See? Isn't that more cozy?" he asked looking down at us. At that point I had just realized what he was wearing, which is simple silken pants. His smooth marble skin was cool and pleasant to the touch.
"And since you to do not seem to be in the talking mood I shall give you each a kiss good night," he said. He kissed Daena deeply and asked me if I wanted one too. I didn't move and he turned completely toward me and rolled above me.
"Are you sure you don't want one?" he asked, his face inches from mine. I still didn't move.
"In that cause I shall kiss you until you speak," and he kissed me fiercely. I didn't move.
"Why won't you answer? Am I scary?" he asked me, tracing my collarbone with his fingers casually. He kissed down my neck to the base on rested his cheek to the hallow of my throat and sighed. He lifted his face and kissed me once more, deeply holding me tight too his body, never relaxing his grip, no escape. I kissed him back, unable to prevent myself.
" So, I wasn't doing some thing wrong after all," He whispered into my ear.
