"How did you get here?" Sirene never expected to find Irene here let alone ever again.

"Kate brought me. Well technically she stopped on the roof of some building in Seattle first before coming here. Something about someone taking a picture so she knew where to go." Irene explained

"Hunt!" Sirene whispered. "I'm going to kill him." She didn't mean it literally, she was just angry with him.

"So you're a vampire? Kate told me a little. Not a lot and a whole lot all at the same time." Irene explained and walked right up to Sirene, trying to keep her fears from stopping her.

"I've been outside, there is no one. You live here all alone."

Sirene nodded her head. "It took me years to get here and find this place. It took 2 years to have it built after finding someone who would build it for me. I inspected it every night during construction."

"And built all of the furniture," Irene pointed out and explained after seeing Sirene's face. "I found your workshop outside in the garage that didn't have a car in it."

"It keeps me busy most days. I even build things for consignment on occasion and take it to Victoria. Irene I'm sorry…" Sirene was interrupted when Irene placed a finger over her lips.

"I'm sorry Sirene, but you scared me and I don't react well to other people."

"Because you've been treated poorly. I know, Paige told me a little. I would never intentionally hurt you."

"Because your refrigerators are full of blood."

She turned her head to look at the refrigerators and then back to Irene. "Partly, but I don't want to drink you dry. I want you just as you are."

"So you still want me even after how I've treated you?" Irene placed her finger over Sirene's lips to silence her. "You should know something first. Dad died suddenly when I was little. Mom never really talked about it. Then mom ended up in the hospital and died there. She asked me to find a nice guy, get married, have children and be happy. It was the last thing she ever told me."

"And I'm not a guy and can't give you children."

"I enjoyed our dates, you're fun to be with. I just never thought about you like that until you kissed me."

"I'm sorry Irene I shouldn't have pushed… " Sirene was silenced by Irene placing another finger on her lips.

"Will you shut-up and let me finish. Are all vampires like you?" Irene took her finger away and Sirene remained silent.

"Kate asked me a question. She wanted to know and find out if I knew. Was I listening to my head or listening to my heart? Was I taking my mother's words too literally or was I actually scared of being involved with another woman? What was it that was making me happy?"

"And?" she asked since it sounded like Irene had come to a conclusion. Since she had stayed there with no way back home, Sirene's hopes and dreams soared.

Irene didn't answer her question. She simply removed her finger and replaced it with her lips. She soon found Sirene's arms around as she pulled her in close.

Sirene's tongue searched Irene's mouth while she followed her lead and plundered her mouth. She broke from the kiss to allow Irene a chance to get some air into her lungs. Sirene kissed the tip of her nose, her eyelids, her forehead followed by kissing her lips softly as she licked them.

"You're probably hungry, I know humans need food and my kitchen isn't meant for that."

"I'm fine."

"And I'm the host and it is my responsibility to make sure you are satisfied. Let me grab my bag and we can go." Sirene jumped to her bedroom, reached with a shaking hand for her bag, and jumped back to Irene.

"But you don't have a car."

"Don't need one. We're going to Victoria to find you a restaurant that is still open." Sirene told her and jumped to Victoria, Canada. It was 6:00 A.M. in New York City which meant it was 3:00 A.M. in Victoria.

They found a bar and grill that was still open; Irene was forced to settle for pub food.

"You don't eat? And you don't drink? Except for blood?"

"Not yours, never yours. I promise. I would rather die than drink from you!"

"Not even a little?"

"What did Kate tell you?"

"Kate will poke Castle's finger and place it in her mouth so she can taste him without actually drinking from him." Irene explained. "Likely Alexis does the same with Paige. You sure you don't want to poke my finger and taste me?" Irene teased.

"Irene!" Sirene cautioned her only to watch as Irene got up, walked around the booth and sat next to her. She ran her finger across Sirene's lips. "Are you sure my blood isn't good enough for you?"

Sirene couldn't take it any longer. She took hold of Irene's hand and ran her forefinger across her fang causing it to start bleeding. She placed her finger into her mouth, closed her lips around Irene's finger, and started sucking, followed soon by Sirene moaning.

Irene felt a moment of pain when her finger was pricked and she figured out that her own blood could be used in a way to exert a little control and tease Sirene at the same time.

Eventually the wound stopped bleeding. Sirene removed Irene's finger from her mouth and licked her lips. "Take us back home," Irene asked while her courage was still with her.

Sirene grabbed her bag, placed a Canadian hundred dollar bill on the table and jumped them to her bedroom where she started to slowly remove Irene's shirt. "Tell me to stop and I will…I hope," she told Irene. Her shirt came off while Sirene kissed her.

She ran her hands up and down Irene's now bare back before undoing the bra she was wearing, freeing her breasts. Sirene bent down, placed one of her nipples in her mouth, and worked her tongue over the nipple while palming her breasts.

She was roughly the same size as Kate while Irene was fuller figured. Irene had her hands in Sirene's hair hold her head in place while leaning her head back enjoying the feeling. Irene tried to work on Sirene's buttons while till the shirt fell to the floor. Irene went to work on the clasp holding Sirene's bra closed, finally freeing her breasts. She lifted up Sirene's head and kissed her and moved her mouth down to Sirene's breasts to do to her what Sirene had done to her.

Irene toed off her shoes as she felt Sirene pulling her pants down till they fell to the floor. Sirene pulled her head back up so she could go back to kissing her as she kicked off her shoes while she worked on her own pants and let them fall to the floor.

She walked Irene backwards and carefully placed her on the bed on her back all the while kissing her. She ran her hands over Irene's body and kissed her way down to Irene's breasts where she gave both of them the attention they so deserved.

She left Irene's breasts and moved down to her belly button where she used her tongue to caress it. Sirene kept moving down her body, feeling Irene's hands in her hair as Irene started moaning and sucking in air.

Irene's panties had gotten damp, telling her that she was doing something right since Irene wasn't talking. Sirene started licking and nipping on Irene's inner thighs before finally placing her hands on the elastic of Irene's panties and found Irene lifting her ass up off the bed allowing her to pull her panties off with ease.

Sirene knew her own panties were now equally damp as she tossed Irene's panties to she didn't care where before spreading Irene's legs wide, allowing her a close look at Irene's beautiful core. She ran her fingers over the lips first before leaning in closer and running her tongue along Irene's lips. Feeling Irene's hands grasp her hair in her fist while moaning louder.

After stroking her lips for a time, she gave Irene's clitoris a quick lick with her tongue, causing her to shudder and get a little louder. Sirene pressed a finger inside Irene which got another reaction from Irene.

She started pumping her finger in and out while licking Irene's lips, tasting Irene Sirene sped up as she was enjoying the taste of Irene.

Finally Sirene was pumping two of her fingers in and out of Irene while flicking her tongue over Irene's clitoris very quickly. Irene began squirming all over the bed while running her hands through Sirene's hair pulling her head in even closer.

Suddenly Irene lifted her ass up off the bed and screamed as her orgasm washed over her. Sirene could feel Irene's muscles contracting on her fingers as a small amount of whitish fluid leaked out that Sirene licked up greedily.

She never stopped pumping her fingers in and out of Irene, however, Sirene decided to try and find it. She twisted her hand and placed two fingers just inside Irene and started a 'come here' type of stroke inside Irene. It was only when Irene started reacting that Sirene knew she had found Irene's G-spot.

She sped up the movement of her fingers while licking her lips. It took almost no time at all for Irene to climax yet again discharging another small amount of a thin whitish fluid that Sirene licked up.

Sirene switched to working over Irene's clitoris again till Irene lifted her ass up off the bed and climaxed all over her face once more.

She inserted two of her fingers and went back to work stroking her G-spot while licking her lips as Irene squirmed all over the bed. She breathed heavy breaths in and out while moaning loudly. Irene had moved her hands from Sirene's hair and was grasping the sheets in her fists as Sirene brought her to yet another orgasm.

Irene couldn't seem to think of anything except the orgasms that Sirene was giving her. She couldn't ask her to stop or even think to ask her to stop. She simply lifted her ass up off the bed as yet another orgasm took over her body.

Irene was simply orgasming while tears ran down her face; her body just wouldn't stop as orgasm after orgasm took over.

It wasn't until she felt Sirene kissing her that her mind finally came back to her. She wrapped her arms around Sirene and start kissing her back. Irene also tasted something. "Is this what I taste like?"

"Turn over, it's my turn now." Irene finally found her voice.

"You don't have to do this Irene. I know this is your first time," Sirene replied. "Shut-up and roll over," Irene commanded. Sirene turned over and allowed Irene do to her what she had done to Irene.

Irene tried for a short time to find her G-spot but never did. It was something they would have to work on. Still Sirene had no trouble reaching an orgasm as she held Irene's face in place and let her lips and tongue work their magic.

Sirene pulled Irene up and started kissing her, tasting herself on Irene's lips. She hadn't tasted herself since the last time she had made love to Kate. Irene wasn't Kate, at least not yet.

"We still need to talk." Sirene stopped kissing her and simply held her close. "You didn't have to do this but I'm glad you're here. There is something you need to know. When the sun comes up I will essentially die. I will stop breathing, my heart will stop beating and I will start to get cold. I will stay that way till the sun starts going down."

"Meaning you will be vulnerable."

"Yes, if something were to happen during this time, I would never even know that I had died… We need to get up and close all the windows before the sun comes up."

"That's why you have shutters on all the windows. I saw them when I was outside." Irene explained. Sirene nodded her head. "Want to help?"

"Sure." Irene got up off the bed and soon found herself downstairs after Sirene jumped them downstairs.

"Do you jump all the time?" Irene asked as she opened the window to close the shutters on the outside and lock them into place. It was followed by putting the window down and closing the interior shutter and locking them in place before pulling the blackout drapes shut.

"That's why I don't have a car. I don't need one. I jump to go get what I want and jump back. I used to have a car before I had the power and age to jump wherever I wanted. I didn't need it anymore so I sold it."

"Do I want to know how old you actually are since you look to be about my age, roughly." Irene asked as she worked on another window. She didn't notice that they were doing this while still naked.

"Are you asking a woman how old she is?" Sirene teased. "I was 24 years old when I was turned and I'm officially 766 years old this year."

"766?" Irene stopped working on her window. "I'm involved with an older woman." She had to think about that for a moment. "I turned 22 last month so you really are older than me. Paige is 20 next month. Do you know how old Alexis is?"

"That's hard to explain. Alexis is 5 years old, 19 years old, and only 3 years old." Sirene only knew what Kate, Hunt and Alexis had told her. There was likely a bigger story involved but she didn't know it.

"Try that again?" Irene closed the drapes on her last window till they got back upstairs.

"That's a story that will have to wait till tomorrow." She took hold of Irene's arm and jumped them upstairs as Irene did one bedroom while she did the other.

"What you want to do now is up to you. I won't be able to stop you. Just know that there isn't anyone for miles around here. So if you go outside you won't find anyone. Keep in mind if someone does show up I can't help you." Sirene warned her and went to her end table and took out a weapon along with two clips.

"Have you ever used one of these? It's simple. This is the safety. Up means it won't fire, down means it will. You press this button to eject the clip." Sirene let the clip fall out into her hand. "You take a new clip and slide it into place and slap it into place." Then she demonstrated.

"Then you pull the slide back to place a round in the chamber. Place the safety down to fire and just point at what you want to hit and pull the trigger. … It will be loud and it will kick in your hand for each round you fire.

"We'll give you a chance to practice later." Sirene placed the safety back into safe mode and handed the weapon over along with the two clips, and climbed into bed. She looked up at Irene and liked what she saw. "My life is now in your hands, until the sun goes down." She wanted to kiss her again but the sun came up and she died.

Castle held onto Kate for a while until her body started to cool. Then he got up and took a shower. A dry and dressed Castle went into the mini kitchen and found Paige cooking something.

"CASTLE!" Paige dropped what she was doing. "Is Kate back? What did she say? She was going to take Irene, I think, and jump for where Sirene is. …Come on Castle, she's my friend." Paige was doing all the talking and it was only when she shut-up that Castle got a moment to say anything.

"Kate didn't say a thing. She had just enough time to strip and get into bed before the sun came up. I don't know a thing. Sorry." He would tell her if he knew.

"Great, did Kate leave her with Sirene? Did she jump her back home? …MY PHONE!" Paige ran out of the kitchen headed for their bedroom where Alexis was sleeping.

Paige came back into the kitchen to get back to work, moping. "She didn't answer. All I got was voice mail so I left her a message. I hate being left in the dark." Paige sighed and stabbed at what she was making.

"Left in the dark in broad daylight in a house closed up tight filled with vampires." Rick loved it, he was going to have to remember to put that in a book someday. Speaking of a book, he needed to get some writing done now that they had an answer for where those two bank robbers went, just not who they were after in that bank.

"It's almost ready. You might as well grab some cereal bowls, silverware and something to drink."

"And what are we eating today?" Rick was curious since Paige really did know how to cook.

"Boeuf Bourguignon." Paige tried to use an accent to make it sound authentic. "It's got bacon, beef, sautéed mushrooms, and braised onions amongst other items and is served over warm noodles of your choosing. It's a little soupy, hence the need for bowls."

Rick liked the sound of all of it. Dinner for breakfast!? Living with a house full of vampires had really changed how he lived his life. "Dinner for breakfast," Rick whispered and Paige began chuckling.

"Here's yours, I'll meet you in the living room." They usually ate together while watching what was on TV.

Morning TV was usually a little boring and today was no exception. "You look worried." Rick stated, watching Paige slowly eat what actually tasted really good.

'Sorry, just worried I guess…We need to go grocery shopping at some point. Not enough eggs, not enough milk, or bread. We have enough for lunch, I think. Breakfast, however, is a different story." Paige said to him with both of them knowing their little mini fridge didn't hold much.

"Remind me again how we started eating our meals backwards?"

"Because this is dinner for us. We're only going to be up for a few more hours before going to bed to get some sleep so that we can stay awake all night."

Irene stood there and watched Sirene, the woman she had just finished having sex with, die. She put down the weapon and clips and actually got down and placed her ear over her heart to try and hear her heartbeat. A hand over her nose told her she wasn't breathing either, plus she was starting to cool to the touch.

She moved her hand to Sirene's mouth and pushed her lips back to expose her fangs. They really weren't all that big. Bigger yes, just not Hollywood sized. She then ran a finger down from her mouth through the valley between Sirene's breasts, which were smaller than her own, and down past her belly button, until a finger reached her shaved core. It was still just a tiny bit wet from all the sex.

She withdrew her hand. She picked up the two spare clips with that hand while her other hand held the weapon. Irene thought a little as she looked at the woman who had taken her. It had been her first time at having sex with anyone except her own fingers.

Had she done alright? What Sirene did to her had been mind blowing. Irene didn't know what she had done was even possible. Her mind had shut down on her after about the second orgasm, she was only vaguely aware that her body just kept having orgasm after orgasm.

Walking around closing the windows had shown her just how sore muscles she didn't even know she had were. Yet she was technically a virgin since her hymen was still intact.

"Now what do I do?" Irene said to herself. She was still kneeling naked next to her naked lover.
