Chapter 20
The next few days, Zero and she spent a lot of time together. He works for her but doing much of nothing. When she isn't working she spends all her time with him. The relationship filled with sex. For some reason, they can't seem to keep their hands off of each other, both feeling the same and wanting more of each other.
Her vampire instincts wanting his blood, her throat getting dry and filled with pain at her want. The more they would make love the more she would want his blood and the same going for him. Just both not letting the other know.
Zero did know that sex and blood went together for vampires, it was their ritual. Especially when they really did care for the other. Zero did wonder if she cared so much, why didn't she bring it up? Why isn't she trying? Was she lying about her feelings and using him? Then Using him for what? He had nothing, she was supplying him with everything.
For her, she knew she couldn't. She couldn't have him taste her blood. She would have to do her best to keep that from him as long as she could. Wanting to build their relationship and make it strong before letting him know. She just wasn't sure, if he would hate her anyway and leave her. The thought always staying in the back of her mind. It's her constant fear.
The days go by, and they do get closer, spending all their free time together. Doing fun things, never really going out together though. It always seems to be indoor things, Watching tv, snuggling up, eating together. Zero just figures, he was a Level D for her to go out in public with him, would make a fuss. Him being who he was, would make even a bigger one. She was this rich fancy vampire, he was a level D ex Hunter, put on the shit list. It would be hard.
He just tries not to focus on it, enjoying the time they have together. Not even needing to spend any of the money he is earning, as she gives him everything free. Food, and board plus even herself. Zero couldn't ask for more. Then again he could, he could ask to be set free of his past, free of the misery he was holding on to, Free of being a level D vampire, that he never asked to be. He just knew none of that was her fault and if she could help, she probably would. He saw her as kind, and warm-hearted, filled with the want to help and give. Her smile alone could warm him. It reminded him so much of the one he once loved so dearly.
He also remembered her saying, that him working for her would fix some of it. Maybe him being able to get another job and not have to sell himself or even work for her forever. Did she have this much power? Where the hell was K corporations anyway? He wondered if they had an office and where. He still was very curious about a lot of things, not letting any of that go just because he liked her. He was too smart for that, but she was too smart to let him know anything real about herself. She was still a mystery to him and he was living with her for three weeks now. He still knew nothing.
