(WARNING: ALL I CAN SAY IS THAT I TRIED.)

Stan thinks Godric wants to turn me? We've never talked about it! And I've never thought about it; ever! I always assumed that either Godric would get tired of me, the promise I made to Eric would become a reality, or I'd die before I hit the age twenty.

"Don't be afraid," Godric whispered in my ear as we came outside. "I'm much older than he is, so if he tried anything, I will overpower him."

But if he's the Magister, won't that mean your fighting against the authority?

Godric moved his hand from my wrist to the back of my neck still urging me forward. We rounded the corner and headed to the back of the clearing. I saw a large group of vampires and one man standing apart from them. Everyone who seemed to be the "jury" was standing and the Magister or "judge" had a throne to sit on.

He frightened me at first glance. Deep set eyes, a formal suit, and a shiny bald head.

"So…" he began as Godric halted making me stop too. "This is the little girl that so desperately needs to be a vampire?"

Stan chuckled, "Yeah."

The Magister glared over at Stan silencing him without a word.

"So, what's so special about this one, Godric?" the Magister asked.

I really didn't like his tone. His arrogance was no doubt from all the power he had.

"As I have said before," Godric answered with the same tone of voice. "I have not thought about nor discussed the possibility with Lacey."

"Oh, so this is the human trouble marker in Dallas," the Magister spoke with a wicked grin. "I've heard all about her."

I stiffened in Godric's grasp. What exactly has he heard?

"I do hope you'll realize she's worth too much alive to turn her," the Magister whispered looking directly into Godric's eyes.

"You do know your saying you want me to sell her blood to vampires, right?" Godric asked coyly.

"Oh please, don't insult me," the Magister insisted. "As an AB negative her only purpose around us is to stay alive as a human blood bag."

"So we can all gang up on her and nearly drink her dry night after night?" Godric added.

The Magister rose from his seat and slowly walked forward to us. He had a walking cane in his hand but didn't use it for what it was intended for. It was an accessory to him like a bracelet on a woman.

He stopped in front of me. I kept my eyes low avoiding his gaze in case he too tried to glamour me. He bent down to my level and took his a deep breath with his eyes closed. He moved from either shoulder and ended at the top of my head like he was smelling my perfume or shampoo.

"She truly is a rarity, you know," he said reaching up to touch my hair. "And as for "drinking her dry"… I wouldn't mind sinking my fangs into her."

Godric growled behind me, "It's about time I publicized this."

Godric pulled me closer wrapping one arm around my waist and keeping the other bunched up in my hair.

"Lacey… is mine," he whispered.

Godric then pushed my head down exposing my neck. He let out a loud roar before he bit down into me. It instantly brought tears to my eyes as the excruciating pain in my neck swelled. I let out a quiet but high pitched whimper elbowing him in the ribs in defense. I took in a sharp inhale as my vision started to go in and out or focus.

Godric released me then letting me fall to my hand and knees in front of him, the Magister, and the large crowd. I reached up and felt the hot blood on my skin and the two very deep holes in my neck. I then looked up at the vampires seeing everyone of them with their jaw dropped and fangs out.

"Now," Godric spoke with blood still smeared over his mouth. "Back to the reason why I really came here."

The Magister glanced up from me with his fangs drawn, "Let's have a quick recess to let everybody calm down before we begin again."

"Agreed," Godric responded.

I took my hand away from my neck. I saw my own blood drip off my palm. How much did he take from me?

When I looked back up I was in the penthouse suite again. I was sitting on the couch with Godric knelt down at my side.

"It was all an act," he said with a single blood tear rolling down his cheek. "I had to be a savage around them to prove my dominance."

I looked back at my hand remembering the pain he put me through. I had no words to say. I didn't understand his actions back there.

Godric roughly grabbed my wrist getting my attention, "Please understand, Lacey. I would never put you through that much pain unless it was for a good reason. And please understand that I never want to do that again."

I forgave him. How could I not? I was in love with him.

"It's okay," I said feeling the tears dry up on my face.

I slowly took my hand from him and reach up to my neck again, "You just… bit down so hard I… thought you went all the way through it."

"Let me clean up," Godric said standing.

He removed my hand again and "cleaned up" the mess he made. I laid back on the couch letting my body become limp as he went away at my neck. I tried to breath normally but not only was Godric licking my neck he was kissing it as well. He was teasing me! Even after I believed all the blood was gone his cold lips made a line of butterfly kisses down my neck.

I hated to stop him, but I didn't want someone to find us in this current situation.

"Godric," I breathed rather heavily. "You need to go back before they come looking for you."

He sighed letting his scorching breath descent onto my skin. I was exploding inside but kept it in as I clenched down on my lips.

I almost released it as my eyes went wide, "You're doing that on purpose."

Godric laughed coming into my view, "Of course I am."

This caught me off guard a little bit. Godric actually admitted he was trying to send me over. I knew he was a man but I never thought he'd actually try to make me explode inside so much I had to let it out.

"Listen," he said stroking my cheek with the back of his hand. "I know I hurt you tonight. So I'm going to make it up to you, I promise."

"Okay," I swallowed trying to keep myself in check.

Godric left. I sighed releasing all the tension that built up.

"That man is going to kill me someday," I said realizing my hand was still bloody.

I started walking to the kitchen, "He's either gunna drink me dry or kiss me too hard."

If there was such a thing as "kissing too hard", I thought.

"At any rate, I am totally going to die before I have to keep my end of Eric's bargain," I said washing my hands with way too much soap.

I then realized Godric never offered me some of his blood to recover. He "cleaned up" rather nicely and left without a word. I felt a little weary but nothing too extreme.

"I'll get ready for bed," I thought out loud heading to the bedroom. "By the time he gets back it will be dawn anyways."

I love how I'm nocturnal like him now, I thought sarcastically. But I guess I don't have anything to do during the day now.

I opened my suit case and dug for some sleepwear. I couldn't find my usual tank and boy shorts. Instead, I found a simple nightgown. I was a little confused but I tried it on for a little fun anyways. It went all the way down to my knees and the straps weren't too thin to be completely useless.

"Hm, it's nice," I shrugged.

It's only for one night so I guess I could sleep in something flirty. No one was going to see me in it anyways.

I walked into the bedroom and sat on the end of the bed. I began to let my mind wander as the plasma TV in front of me went ignored. Where does Godric sleep in this hotel? Do they have a huge basement for all the vampires?

Just then, I heard a whoosh come from the living room. My attention snapped back to reality. I glanced over at the door to the bedroom watching it swing open slowly. A smile crossed my face when Godric entered the room.

"So, what was Stan's sentence?" I asked.

Godric was silent as he crossed the room. I cranked my neck to make eye contact when he stopped before me. Godric was looking me over. It re-occurred to me that I was wearing something different than my usual tank with boy shorts.

He leaned down and placed a soft kiss on my lips. At first he kept it slow and innocent but I could feel the aggression behind him as the kiss drew deeper. He placed his hand on either side of me on the bed pushing me back. Godric was forcing me to scoot backwards further onto the bed.

I was on my backside propping myself up with one hand behind me on the bed. Godric made a spot for himself snuggled in between my legs. My free hand cupped his cheek enjoying his signature wintry kiss. Godric propped himself up with one hand as well as the other rose up my back stopping to play with my strap.

I gasped breaking the kiss. I looked deep into his eyes with one question echoing inside my head.

"What are you doing?" I asked hearing my heartbeat race within my chest.

Godric smiled down at me with kind eyes, "Making it up to you."

I wrapped both my arms around Godric letting my body press to his. The topic crossed my mind a few times, but I wasn't sure if I was ready at age seventeen.

"Go slow," I whispered in his ear. "Or… you'll scare me off."

"I promised I wouldn't hurt you unless it was for a good reason," Godric replied stroking my back. "Tonight is a good reason."

A shiver shot up my spine. My first time… would be painful. I knew it would be though.

Godric's lips returned to mine. He slowly lowered me to the bed his hands letting my nightgown gradually rise up on my bare legs.

I was too caught up in Godric's touch to realize what he was doing. My eyes were closed as we started venturing into each other. His moist but cold tongue was a new sensation for me to take in.

My eyes widened and my breath got caught in my throat as I felt a tender push on my sensitive spot. Godric broke the kiss but remained close to my face. He reached up higher and began to pull off my panties little by little. Once the were removed he continued where he left off.

He traced small designs at my entrance making it open and close against my will. My heart started racing again as Godric barely entered with the tip of his finger. He moved his finger in a tender "come here" motion hitting both of the side walls as he did. Godric pushed a little deeper continuing the movement watching me to be sure I was satisfied.

I held in a gasp and instead inhaled quickly through my nose.

Godric pulled out of me and began to pull off his shirt. I watched him toss it to the side grinning down at me. He has so many tattoos! I knew of the one around his neck, but the one on his bicep caught my attention.

Shit, I thought gazing over his toned physique. How have I not seen these guys before?

"I love it when I catch you off guard," Godric whispered in my ear.

His kiss was a little rough this time around. His lips came over mine and immediately demanded an entrance. My breath became short very quickly due to his eagerness.

I then realized that my dress was already at my rib cage. Godric was working it up and off me as he distracted me with his impatient kissing. It eventually made it over my head exposing my entire body to Godric lingering gaze.

I tried not to be shy and cover myself up. But meeting Godric's gaze would have frightened me off.

Godric cupped my cheek in his hand, "Don't ever be ashamed of your body. Never around me. Because I love it."

I heard Godric pull off his pants and what belonged underneath them in one swift movement. My eyes opened slowly and my gaze found what Godric was really made of. I shot back up meeting his eyes knowing all to well a blush was rising to my cheeks.

Godric's mouth was all over me then. He started at my neck and moved down over my collar bone. The tempting war between hot and cold was using me as it's battlefield. His breath came down on me in swift groups and the cold eased over the heat and my bare skin. The cold didn't last nearly as long as I would have liked before the blazing hot fire returned to make my toes curl.

"I'll stop teasing now," Godric whispered with a smile on his face.

My heart stopped short as I felt him beckon at my entrance. My legs widened without my order giving Godric more room. I could feel something pulsate down at my tender spot. I didn't know if it was me or him but the feeling only grew.

"Don't let the pain distract you from the pleasure," Godric spoke driving into me further.

I don't know if he'll fit, I thought finding my hands up against Godric's bare chest.

It was a tight fit and the pulsating was now at a full throbbing. It stung and I flinched when Godric started a steady pace. I tried to move with him but as I did the stinging grew stronger and then backed off only repeating itself.

I looked up at Godric seeing his fangs peeking out of his full lips. He said to ignore the pain and that's what I would intend to do. Godric came down to me easing his mouth onto mine. He was gentle knowing there were two very sharp objects in his mouth.

After a short while, I could feel… something start to build up inside me. The feeling swelled over the pain making me feel completely aroused.

Aroused? Is that what I am right now?

Godric pulled away smiling down at me, "I can feel what you feel. And I know your close."

The pace quickened in between my legs making the feeling double in size. My breath was getting heavier than it was before. My heart was barely being contained inside my chest. The heat of my body reached a new level.

I was teetering over the edge and swiftly brought one hand up to my mouth preparing for my release. Godric pulled my hand away bracing it against the bed at head level. I reached up with my last free hand but Godric did the same with that one.

"Don't fight the noises," Godric pleased. "It's part of love making."

"No, Godric, please!" I cried out.

I struggled against his might knowing I wouldn't succeed. The noises would be too embarrassing for me to hear. I wouldn't be able to relive this moment in my head without humiliating myself all over again.

My body trembled in ecstasy as I over flowed with emotion. I turned my head to the side hoping to muffle it a little in the sheets. Godric leaned down and kissed my exposed neck as I screamed out in pleasure.

The moment ended as I turned to look up at Godric. A single tear rolled down my cheek as I felt an intense red flush over my cheeks.
