Chapter 5
"Bella, look at me. I want you to watch me," Heidi whispered, cupping Bella's chin and moving the girl's head so that the human had no choice but to stare into Heidi's pitch black eyes. A small, sexy smirk curved Heidi's lips. "That's my girl." Heidi pulled away then, and it took a moment, but Bella realized that Heidi was straddling her, both of them completely naked.
It was impossible to tear her eyes away from Heidi's body. It was glorious and curvy and way too sexy for Bella's comprehension. Heidi's breasts alone could be viewed as a weapon of mass destruction. And god, would Bella have been all too willing to perish because of them. Not to mention the amazing deliciousness that had to be hidden between Heidi's legs.
After allowing Bella to drink in her appearance for a while, seeming to thrive under Bella's gaze, Heidi started to move. She rocked herself against Bella's stomach, covering Bella's skin in her wetness as Heidi moaned in pleasure. There was a seductive cruelty in her gaze as Bella surged up against her, whimpering, begging for more contact.
"Oh, no you don't," Heidi murmured, pressing Bella back down onto the bed. "I need to make you suffer for a little while longer, to get you back for all of the torture you put me through by denying me for so long. Understand?"
Despite her intense, near painful arousal, Bella nodded. In that moment, she would have done anything for the vampire, no matter the cost.
Heidi smiled, stroking Bella's cheek once, before she focused once more on pleasuring herself with Bella's body. She used Bella's stomach, her legs, and even took control of Bella's fingers for Heidi's own personal pleasure.
It was the most amazing thing Bella had ever experienced. And that was just the beginning.
Right now, Heidi was being put through some of the most agonizing torture imaginable, she was sure of it. And it was certainly the most painful thing she had ever experienced in her entire existence, even worse than her own turning.
She wasn't allowed to touch or tease Bella, but apparently, the sleeping human had no problem doing the same to her. Not only was Bella moaning and squirming with the scent of her arousal so strong Heidi had to struggle to resist, but to make matters worse, Bella was actually calling Heidi's name. Begging Heidi, even. Something about how Heidi needed to stop torturing her and that she just needed Heidi inside of her already. She was even rubbing up against Heidi's body, and damn, Heidi was all but about to explode.
It would have been bad enough for Heidi to experience this next to someone she had simply been attracted to, but the fact that Bella was her mate, and Heidi had only just realized the fact, made everything much worse. Had she not already taken Bella at least once, the human would have woken to intense pleasure, with Heidi's fingers already buried inside of her.
Bella moaned again, wrapping her arms tightly around Heidi's waist before breathing out another plea for mercy, saying something about needing to come. For a girl who protested Heidi's advances so much when she was awake, she sure had no problem begging for Heidi's touch when asleep. It was really starting to take a toll of the vampire.
Heidi knew, without a doubt, that if she were to slip her hand between Bella's thighs, she would find the girl soaked. But she just couldn't bring herself to do it. While it had taken hours to get over, then embrace the fact that Bella was actually Heidi's mate, she wasn't stupid. No vampire in their right mind would just go to town seducing then sexing their human mate, especially when they slept, and think there weren't going to be consequences in their relationship down the road. Of course, Heidi had probably done some type of damage already, judging by her earlier actions. But it wasn't all her fault; she had no idea who Bella was to her back then; she had thought she had simply been insanely attracted to her.
Damn it. Why hadn't anyone told her that Bella was her mate? Didyme had to have seen it, at least. But the queens had seemed fine with keeping Heidi in the dark.
There had to be a reason. Maybe it was just to amuse themselves, perhaps play with Heidi for a bit? Or maybe it was just to prove something to Heidi? She wasn't sure, but she was pretty grumpy knowing she had been left in the dark. She had already screwed things up so badly; instead of wining and dining and seducing, Heidi had just tried to figure out the quickest way to get Bella into her bed. She didn't even think about Bella's feelings on the matter, had even tried to blackmail the human.
In other words, Heidi had severely fucked up.
Once again, Heidi's focus was turned to Bella as the girl let out another whimper, clutching at Heidi's arm. Then, to make matters worse, Bella started grinding her pelvis against Heidi's arm, desperate for relief. Heidi could easily feel that the girl was soaked despite the underwear and pants between them.
Heidi's hands curled into fists, desperate not to ravish the girl. While it would have been much better for the vampire to pull her arm away, she couldn't bring herself to do it. Any contact was welcome at the moment, as Heidi knew she wouldn't have nearly as much contact with the human once Bella woke up. If Bella needed Heidi's arm to get off, then who was Heidi to stop her?
Bella was moaning louder now, her movements getting frantic, which therefore made Heidi even more desperate. She needed to hold still, needed to show that she had the restraint, but she wanted so desperately to actively pleasure the human. To press her arm a little closer and give Bella that extra much needed relief. But she couldn't, not without Bella's permission. And no matter what torture Heidi would be put through, she'd be damned if she were to actually move away. This was apparently her mate, after all.
Her mate. Shit, how could something that Heidi had only realized a few hours ago already feel so right?
It wasn't long before Bella came, letting out a muffled cry against Heidi's body. Heidi's arm got wet from Bella's orgasm, and as the girl calmed, Heidi couldn't help but bring her arm to her lips, tasting Bella for the first time.
Shit. Heidi had never tasted anything better before in her life. She could live on Bella's essence for sure.
So blissed out by Bella's taste, Heidi had to take another lick. And it was at that moment that Bella opened her eyes.
Bella woke with a start, snapped out of her sleep by her orgasm. The first thing she saw was Heidi glancing down at her with hooded eyes, in the middle of licking her own arm, which glistened with...something.
It had to have only taken a second, but it felt like an eternity for the scene to register in Bella's head. And at first, all she could think of was just how sexy Heidi looked in that moment. Her groin clenched with desire, and that was when Bella realized just what had happened down below.
Blushing a dark red, Bella hopped out of the bed, only to trip over something. She quickly managed to steady herself, but after a few steps, tripped over something else, unable to see anything in the dark room. Heidi was next to her in a flash, catching her before she fell.
Immediately, Bella's body heated, simply from the strong arm holding her upright. She didn't even need to feel Heidi's body against her own to get blindsided by her own arousal. Even more desperate than ever, Bella shoved away, insanely grateful that Heidi actually let her go, and managed to stumble to the bathroom without banging into much else.
Heidi stared after Bella as the door slammed shut, feeling a ball of cold dread drop into her stomach.
Fuck! Bella had to have known what Heidi was tasting. The human probably believed that Heidi was a sick pervert or some shit, and probably never wanted to so much as lay eyes on Heidi again. How was it that even when trying her best to do the right thing, Heidi still managed to monumentally fuck up?
The shower turned on, and with a sigh, Heidi flopped back onto the bed, staring up at the ceiling. Already, Heidi's mind was racing with ideas on how to fix how much she messed up, wondering how she was supposed to win Bella over now.
In the shower, Bella desperately washed off all traces of her orgasm, her face still a bright red. She was totally embarrassed, well beyond any embarrassment that she had ever felt before. All she could think of was her dream and who starred in it, and her own reaction to the imaginary touches. To make matters a hundred times worse, Bella knew Heidi had to have smelled Bella's bodily reactions. Not to mention Bella was pretty sure she had been humping the vampire while Bella had been asleep.
How was she even going to be able to look at the vampire again? After all of that fighting, all the resisting, to have ended up like that just from Heidi's close proximity...the only hope that Bella could have was that she hadn't said anything too horrible while asleep.
There was a quick knock at the bathroom door, making Bella jump. Heidi's voice followed, announcing that she was leaving Bella a pair of clothes outside the door, and just hearing Heidi's voice was enough to make Bella wet all over again. She quickly washed between her legs once again, hoping Heidi hadn't smelled that too.
After what had to have been an hour, Bella couldn't hide herself any longer. She turned the shower off, got out, and tip toed to the door. She opened it only a crack and glanced around, looking for the cause of her lust and embarrassment, only to find the room empty. Just in case, Bella snatched the clothes up and closed the bathroom door so she could get changed in privacy. She found some deodorant and an extra toothbrush and quickly got prepared for the upcoming day, knowing she would never be able to go back to sleep now.
Once dressed, she crept out of the bedroom and looked around once more, but still no sign of Heidi. Had the vampire really left Bella alone?
Actually no, as Heidi was simply standing outside of her bedroom door to give Bella space, but Bella didn't know that.
Using the light from the bathroom, Bella found the light switch for the room and turned it on. She then gazed around the room, wondering what she should do. One thing was for certain, she wasn't going to so much as sit on that giant bed again. But there was nothing around to keep her mind occupied.
Some part of Bella knew that if she called Heidi, the woman would appear immediately, but Bella wasn't about to. She really didn't want to see the vampire again, especially not this soon.
Unfortunately, her stomach had other ideas, growling loudly for the whole castle to hear.
Just like that, Heidi was in front of her, staring down at Bella with concerned eyes. Bella couldn't even meet her gaze, especially with Heidi's body only inches away from pressing against her own. Her body's reaction was even more powerful than before, and a part of her ached to have Heidi press up against her and kiss her in a way that Bella had never been kissed before.
"You need to eat," Heidi said, reaching for Bella's face, who immediately flinched away from her touch. Heidi felt a strange tightening in her throat, but talked herself out of getting too emotional, rationalizing that at least Bella wasn't screaming at her or calling her a pervert.
"I'm okay," Bella said quickly, still staring at the floor. Her stomach growled again in protest, making it very clear that Bella was anything but okay, at least food wise.
"No you're not. You need food." And Heidi wasn't about to let Bella starve herself, that was for damn sure. Womaning up, Heidi grabbed Bella by the wrist and started to pull her out of the room and down the hall.
This time, Heidi was more prepared for Bella to have a reaction. The girl could scream and curse and fight Heidi all she wanted, but Heidi was going to make sure Bella got to the kitchen and got herself fed. She would take anything, even abuse, from Bella later for Heidi's actions, as long as she knew that Bella was healthy and wasn't doing something stupid like starving herself.
To Heidi's surprise, Bella didn't say a word and didn't so much as try to pull her arm out of Heidi's grasp. Instead, she followed obediently, never taking her eyes off of the floor. And this actually worried Heidi even more, to the point she was even about to try making small talk. But she couldn't do it, afraid that Bella would balk or say something horrible, like how she hated Heidi.
It was almost laughably sad. The attraction for Bella had actually strengthened, yet Heidi was more concerned with Bella's view of her than ever before. It had to have been one of the first times Heidi wasn't thinking with her libido.
They made it to the kitchen quickly enough, where Bella insisted on making her own meal. And who was Heidi to deny her that?
With a nod, Heidi let go of Bella's wrist, then got out everything Bella could need. Bella couldn't bring herself to even say a simple "thank you," her mind consumed with how she had to have acted while asleep, and what Heidi had to be thinking of her now. She probably thought that Bella was just a foolish human, denying her desires to such a degree that she had no choice but to give in to them while she was asleep. And of course, Heidi would be spot on in her beliefs. Bella clearly had little control when it involved the vampire.
The food was made soon enough, and Bella sat down as far away from Heidi as possible to eat it. Heidi made no move to get closer, just as wary of Bella as Bella was of her. Neither girl spoke, Heidi too busy staring at Bella, and Bella too busy staring at her food as she felt the heavy weight of Heidi's gaze.
It was while this awkward silence was continuing to unfold that Didyme "happened" to enter the kitchen.
"Oh my," she exclaimed softly, seeing the bond between the two. Whatever Heidi had done had changed significantly. While it was still weak and seemingly fragile, the desire for each other was stronger than ever. But at the same time, the emotional strength of the bond was severely lacking.
It was clear something had happened sometime during the night, but whatever it was also put some distance between them. On Heidi's side, it was clear she wanted to get closer, but for Bella, it was clear that, while feeling the desire to get closer as well, she also wanted to get as far away as possible.
At Didyme's exclamation, both looked up at her. Heidi's eyes hardened, almost as if about to challenge the queen, before she quickly stood and bowed, mumbling, "My Queen." It was clear that Heidi had a lot more to say and ask, probably because she had recognized what Bella was to her, but the younger vampire kept her mouth shut.
To surprise Didyme even further, the shy, awkward human didn't look away when Didyme met and held her gaze. Instead, she straightened, seeming to gain confidence from somewhere deep inside of her as she put down her fork and pushed the plate away. Making it clear that she wasn't going to back down, Bella said, "I have a request to make of you and the other queens. Can we talk?"
Didyme arched her eyebrows, wondering what the girl could want. But instead of taking her time to wonder what was going on or trying to dissect what the girl could possibly be thinking or feeling, Didyme nodded.
"Of course, Bella. You just need to follow me."
With that said, Bella stood up, took care of her dishes and put them in the dishwasher, and turned to Didyme. When the woman simply left the room, Bella followed without a thought. She never even glanced at a bewildered Heidi, who saw no choice but to follow.
Heidi would be beyond stupid if she would actually be willing to leave her mate now of all times, after all.
