Chapter 5: Freedom...?
Terra danced through that weekend with a heavy heart. She and Sita had a girl's night out, but other than that, nothing happened.
She hadn't see the Count either. Which she prayed would never happen again.
While her mind was focused elsewhere, her physical relationship with Brett was dwindling.
Short and sweet, she mused. He was still a big teddy-bear, and she found she enjoyed just his company more than his kisses.
And then, one week after her meeting with Dracula, he wanted to talk to her.
They had been passionate and zealous, and in the end, they would be friends.
They both agreed that their friendship would last much longer than their passion.
Terra reveled in her freedom, liking her single status once more.
Three days later, Terra got pulled into bringing Brett along to a new dance club, joining Sita and Cale.
Sita was laughing in the back of the car with Terra, while Brett and Cale conversed as if they were old friends. Terra was relaxed and happy. It was wonderful to have a group of friends to be with.
And now that she wasn't dating any of them, all the better.
"So what's this place called anyway?" Terra asked, tapping long fingers to her lips.
Sita grinned, lounging in the large back seat, long legs folded elegantly as she propped her elbow up on the seat, turning to face Terra. "It's called Night Blood," Terra flinched suddenly, and Sita glanced at her. "Tonight is opening night, chica, so you better find someone to dance with." Terra rolled her eyes.
"Oh, come on, I'll just steal Brett for a while," she grinned as he stole a glance over his shoulder, smirking.
"Seriously, Terra, if you don't find someone, I will!" Terra's grin spread. "Since when have I not found someone fine?"
Her scalp prickled with unease as she recalled her latest catch. One she desperately wanted to lose.
--------------------------
The club was great, a huge balcony overlooking a long dancefloor, surrounded by alcoves with opaque silk curtains that fluttered in the slight breeze.
The music was low, the beat wonderously slow, and everything seemed to call out passion.
Terra clashed her glass against the others, smiling.
She felt slight unease at the seduction present here, but being with her friends helped a lot.
She downed her glass, relaxing as the resulting buzz that flooded through her body sent warm prickles of satisfaction over her skin.
Gradually, the other members of the group faded away, into the dance crowd, Brett having found a pretty black-haired girl to dance with, and Sita hanging off Cale.
She smirked. At least Sita had found someone perfect for her.
Sometimes you love it,
Sometimes you don't.
Sometimes you need it then you don't and you let go..
She draped her legs carefully over another chair, avoiding lifting her skirt too much.
Icey sensation poured over her, like liquid glass and her spine prickled as she felt cold fingers clasp her arm. "Care to dance?" She knew who it was, and refused to look at him.
Sometimes we rush it,
Sometimes we fall
It doesn't matter baby we can take it real slow..
She turned, slamming her glass on the counter as she crossed her arms. "No," she snapped back.
She squeaked slightly as he pulled her from her seat with ease, sliding into his embrace as his breath washed over her neck. "Sure," he responded, chuckling as he kissed her nearly bare shoulder.
She checked to make sure her thin strapped tank top was covering her properly, then tried to pull away.
"Piss off, Count. I don't want to dance with you," she hissed, pushing away her fear and desire.
Coz the way the we touch is something that you can't deny
And the way that you move oh you make me feel alive,
Come on,
He pulled her hips flush against his own, smiling at the small groan he coaxed from her throat as his hands splayed across her flat stomach.
You move in closer,
I feel you breathe,
It's like the world just disappears when you're around me..
He chuckled. "This song is wonderful," he growled into her ear, nuzzling her neck as he caressed her shoulder.
No shit, she thought.
Say you want, say you need,
I can tell by your face, love the way it turns me on..
Dracula spun her, pulling her back to him, her arms draping around his shoulders mindlessly. He pressed her hips closer to his own, mercilessly..
I say you want, I say you need,
I will do all it takes, I would never do you wrong..
"What the hell is with this music," Terra mumbled, her fingers clenching his shoulders. She was only a few inches shorter than him he realized. Her breasts touched his chest as he drew her closer.
He smirked as he wound his fingers through her messy updo. "This club is owned by vampires, and I called in a favor tonight."
She choked back a gasp, glaring up at him.
Say you want, say you need,
If you have what it takes we don't have to wait,
Let's get it on...
"Manipulative, perverted- vampire," she snarled at him.
He tugged her into an alcove, pressing her closer to him as he let his eyes close, revelling in her heat, her husky, wondrous scent.
Terra pulled away, and he let her. She stepped back, her eyes narrowed, then just as suddenly, she tripped backwards; the alcoves held little couches.
A flick of his wrist sent the curtains across the opening, shielding them effectively.
She struggled to push herself up as he slid over her body.
"Let me go!" He pressed his lips to hers, silencing her as she smacked his chest.
Catching her hands, he held them down on either side of her head, tasting her thoroughly as she struggled with her desire.
Kiss me Terra. The mental urge seared her mind, and her eyes closed as she fought for control.
He sighed inwardly. Then jumped slightly as her nails dug into his back, one of her legs wrapping around his waist as she kissed him furiously, her free hand ripping the clip from his hair and tangling her hand in his hair.
He responded, his claws tracing liquid lines of desire over her flesh as she ran her nails over his back.
He was surprised again when she growled, her muscles flexing as she flipped on top of him, and they crashed to the -mercifully- soft carpeted floor as she straddled him.
He released her wrists as he pulled her closer, feeding in her touch as she kissed his neck.
His fangs grew as he felt her blunt teeth scrape his neck, and he resisted the urge to bite.
Finally, Terra pushed off of him, panting as she staggered to her feet.
He stood behind her as she moved toward the curtain's opening.
She turned slightly, casting a glance over her shoulder as she snapped, "Tell anyone about this and I swear; I will kill you."
He smirked, reaching for her wrist, but she flung the curtain aside, marching out and disappearing among the throngs of gyrating mortals.
He sighed, letting his passion fade as he crossed his ankles, staring out at the crowd as he leaned against the wall.
---------------
Terra was staring mindlessly out the window as they drove home, her friends chattering wildly around her.
Their voices seemed to flow around her, a small shell of silence around her.
She didn't want to be owned. All she wanted was freedom.
If that's all you want, her mind whispered, then why do you want him so badly?
Terra shoved her thoughts aside, turning to Sita as her friend slurred her words madly, cackling as Brett said something she didn't understand.
She was so happy being with them a few hours before, but just then, she felt more alone in the world than ever.
-----------------
Wah, depressing.
Okay, I hate that. I so badly want to write about Terra just GIVING IN. but -sigh- alas, the story has so much more to come.
Dracula: I swear woman, if you had your way, half the world would still be virgins edging on being screwed.
Hadasah: -sigh- I know.
Dracula: Well are you a virgin Miss Priss?
Hadasah: Yes. -shifty gaze-
Dracula: HA. Liar. -reaches for her-
Hadasah: Go fuck yourself. -snaps- After writing this, I don't want your wandering hands anywhere near me.
Dracula: ...
Now I'm more depressed.
-cries- Review to make me feel better.
Then maybe I'll make things happier.
