I did again as he said and I had to know, “Are you touching yourself too?”
“Yes. I’m so hard right now; it’s painful. I want you so bad, I don’t think I’ll make it through the night without you, but alas, I must. I hate that Dominic’s there instead of me. I hate it with a passion.”
“Shhh,” I said, “I’m taking off my bra and stepping out of my panties. What do you want me to do next?”
“Are your nipples hard?”
“Yes.”
“Can you touch them for me?”
I brought my now shaking fingers up and began to squeeze my nipples. I liked my breasts handled roughly and imagined that instead of my soft hands; a man who I wanted buried between my legs, Maximus, was gripping my breasts.
“I love your nipples. Are they really pink, my love?”
“Yes.”
“God. Do you know what I want to do to you? I want to flip you over and first, spank you for even entertaining another man and then when I’m done punishing you, I’m going to push you against the wall, spread your legs and slide my dick into you. When you’re writhing against my cock, I’m going to pull it out slowly and slam it back into you. And I’m going to fuck you until you can barely walk anymore, but you’re going to enjoy it, aren’t you?”
I couldn’t answer. I was too busy coming and as my breathing went back to normal; I closed my legs and sighed into the phone sleepily, but became immediately wide awake as Maximus said, “I’ll be there in ten minutes.” The line disconnected.
I knew he was serious so I rolled out of the guest bed and looked for my clothes. Dominic didn’t wake up and I crept back out of my room and then through the door. It was after two o’clock in the morning. Our neighborhood was safe, but crazy things could happen anywhere, but there was no way, I was going to let Maximus in. We would just have to face off on the front porch and I just hoped Dominic wouldn’t hear us.
Chapter Six
As I stood there waiting for Maximus, I heard a sound in the shrubs to my left. It almost sounded as if someone were breathing. I quickly took a step back, startled enough to try to get away from the noise, but clumsily I forgot that the stairs to my porch dropped off abruptly and so I went down hard and felt pain reverberate across my body as my back hit the hard ground. My heart rate raced and I opened my mouth to scream when a hand gripped me around the ankle and pulled me towards the shrubs.
I kicked and fought, screaming the whole time and I heard my would be assailant scream suddenly and saw Lady Belle clawing at his face. He slapped her away and she landed with a sickening thud on the bottom step.
“I hate cats,” the man growled stepping out of the shadows. He was short and heavily muscular like a boxer and he radiated a stench from the sweat that pooled under his arms and across his wide chest. I backed up, still on all fours, attempting to shake his grip on my leg as Lady Belle again went in for the attack. He kicked at her and ignored her clawing at his leg as he easily disregarded her and reached down towards my shaking form.
“Your brother owes us a debt and we intend to collect,” was all he said as he attempted to grab me by my shirt to keep me from struggling. I knew my brother had been in some trouble from his gambling, but I would have never expected this.
As he leaned down, I kicked out with all my might and caught him on the chin. I attempted to run up my steps but he grabbed me and threw me down to the ground. I jumped up and ran, winded but not giving up. I caught a glimpse of Lady Belle launching herself at his face and they tussled on the ground. I wasn’t looking where I was going, too busy looking back at the damage Lady Belle was fortunately causing, and I ran into a rock hard chest. Maximus.
“What’s---” he didn’t get any additional words out as he saw the man now coming towards us with a gun in his hand.
“I’ll kill you both, but I just want the girl.”
“That’s not going to happen.” Maximus said quietly and I screamed and stepped back as his face began to blur, to shift, and to change. It was a horrific sight to see as his features distorted and his skin seemed to peel back. I stood there frozen in place with horror and I caught sight of Dominic now on the front porch looking in our direction. He saw what was going on and leapt gracefully off the porch. Then to my horror, his face began to blur too. I figured I was going crazy as I backed up and then I heard a growl as Maximus was now gone, but in his place was a large tiger with eyes the color of dark molasses.
I screamed and stumbled back, but the tiger wasn’t interested in me as it jumped into the air and I heard the thug sputter and then fire two shots at the creature. I was so frightened that I didn’t see where Dominic had gone. I screamed when the tiger flying in the air didn’t get his prey, instead the thug was tackled from behind by another tiger and I knew then that I was going insane. Where were these tigers coming from besides my imagination? This other tiger was pure white, an albino tiger it seemed and he mercilessly went for the screaming man’s jugular, tearing it out.
I screamed and attempted to jump up, afraid for my life, but fear froze my limbs as the tigers simultaneously looked back at me and then sized up each other. The albino tiger titled its head and growled and the other tiger just stared back, its eyes steady, dangerous.
I motioned to stand up, afraid they would hear me and come after me when the albino tiger again looked in my direction and the other tiger used that moment to spring on him. I got up and backed away slowly as they fought, growling and roaring.
It was then that I saw the gun had landed close to me and I raised my hand, reached for it unsure which one to shoot.
On shaky legs, I stood up and pointed, but promptly my hand lowered. I couldn’t shoot them; something was stopping me. The tigers seemed to sense my earlier intentions and turned their attention back to me, but instead of coming towards me, they began to morph, changing shape in front of me. The tigers’ skin began to stretch and instead of fur, there was sinewy muscle, human muscle and as their snouts began to form into human features, the white tiger became Dominic and the other tiger with the dark molasses eyes became Maximus.
They approached me slowly, naked and impassive expressions on both their faces.
“Drop the gun, Liza, or at the very least, point it towards Dominic.” Maximus said.
“I’m just glad you’re alright,” Dominic said stepping closer to me. “Stop scaring her Maximus.”
“I wasn’t the one who ripped out a jugular in front of her. By the way, you need to get rid of the body one way or another and I’m not particularly hungry.” Maximus said matter-of-factly.
With those words, I decided then to run.
Dominic caught me easily and I started to scream as his arms came around me. He covered my mouth and said, “I’m sorry, Liza, but we can’t wake the neighbors.”
I could hear sirens as he dragged me back towards my house and Maximus sighed heavily and picked up the thug’s body.
Dominic carried me kicking and screaming towards my bedroom. Maximus disappeared into my kitchen with the thug’s body in tow.
Dominic dropped me down on my bed and didn’t bother to close the door behind us. I was breathing heavily, afraid to move, looking at the open door.
“What are you?”
“A shifter.”
“What?”
“A shifter. You collect books. You must have read about my kind.”
“This is crazy.”
“I would guess so, for you.”
I just stared at him, wondering when I would wake up. This had to be a dream or nightmare.
“My kind can shift between animal form and human form. Is that really so hard to believe given what you just saw?”
“But there were two of you...”my voice trailed off. I couldn’t believe I was entertaining this conversation.
“Yes, Maximus was an unexpected, unwanted surprise. I knew there was a reason I hated him instantly besides him being obnoxious.”
He sat down next to me and I instantly backed up. “You just ki
lled a man,” I said.
“Only because he was going to kill you. Did you want me to give him the opportunity to do so? I saw an immediate threat and I eliminated it.” I imagined this was simply a result of his military training, but even as my mind accepted that, I still had to fight back the nausea that clawed at me.
He had a valid point and I felt my body shaking from the adrenaline. He cautiously reached for my hand. I didn’t pull away; his presence calmed me more than it frightened me. I didn’t know why.
He gradually brought me in his arms and said, “I’m just happy that you’re okay.” It must have been the adrenaline or the need to do something primal that reaffirmed life, because I found myself running my hands over his still nude body.
“Are you sure you want to do this?” He asked cautiously.
“Very sure.” I said against his lips. I reached up and switched off the light.
Things heated quickly and Dominic practically clawed my clothes off. I didn’t care. I wanted him badly. Before I knew it, he was ripping my bra and panties from my body. I knew I wouldn’t be wearing those again as I heard them literally rip in half as he threw them across the room.
There was no foreplay, just a desire to have him inside of me, and so when he flipped me over, my whole body shuddered reveling in the feel of him. My emotional and physical feelings eclipsed one another and I couldn’t tell if what I felt for him was love or lust.
I didn’t have a chance to ponder anything else when I became aware of another presence in the room.
Maximus just stood there, leaning casually against the wall watching. He had his shaft in his hand and he lazily rubbed his startlingly large erect member up and down, playing with the tip, which seemed to glisten in the moonlight. I watched him watching Dominic enter me so forcefully that my body rocked forward with each of his movements and then Dominic pulled out until just the tip of his dick was still inside of me and I screamed for him to give me more.
“Dominic,” I gasped, “Please.”
From the shadows, I could here, Maximus’s voice, “You’ve had your fun, Dominic, now it’s my turn.”
My sex tightened around Dominic’s member at Maximus’s words, basking in the feel of Dominic, squeezing and clenching around his cock buried inside of me, while also getting wetter in anticipation of the delicious things I knew Maximus was capable of doing to me.
I knew the image I made with my backside in the air, Dominic thrusting into me as I moaned and beckoned him to enter me to go deeper and faster than he had before, must be driving Maximus insane. Dominic on the other hand was a different story. Upon hearing Maximus enter, Dominic didn’t bother to stop. I didn’t know if he was too focused on what he was doing to my body to acknowledge Maximus or if he just didn’t care enough about Maximus’ presence to stop.
Then he turned and looked at Maximus and they exchanged a glance. Maximus still nude from shifting earlier, approached me and then suddenly Dominic pulled out of me, rolled me on top of him, and nudged me up so that my sex was on his face. Maximus grabbed me by my hair and brought my mouth down to his cock. I greedily sucked it in while kneeling over Dominic’s face as his tongue and mouth worked ceaselessly to give me pleasure. I began to bounce my hips up and down on his face and simultaneously I brought all of Maximus in my mouth and he said not a word. He just kept my head locked in place, pushing my mouth up and down his cock as he breathed deeply.
His member was so big it nearly choked me. I tried to get it all in my mouth and when I couldn’t, I gave my attention to his balls, licking and sucking them into my mouth and then I bent down further and let my tongue trace a line to his taint.
He snatched my hair back and said, “That’s enough.”
Maximus snatched me off Dominic and tossed me across the bed. My sex still quivered and throbbed from the feel of Dominic’s tongue earlier and I wanted Maximus next. I got my wish as he settled on top of me. I couldn’t see him because the only source of light was the hall light that crept under the door, but I knew he was there, as he pinned my arms above my head and slid his thick, hot cock into me. My eyes adjusted to the light as Maximus hammered into me; Dominic kneeled over my pinned arms. He trapped them between his knees as he leaned over me to play with my breasts. Pulling and kissing my nipples, being anything but gentle.
I didn’t know whose name I called first. Between the pleasures of Dominic playing with my breasts, to the feel of Maximus inside of me, I lost control and began to scream. My body shook, my inner muscles tightened and my head felt like it was about to explode as my orgasm rippled across me. Maximus threw his head back and grunted before coming inside of me. My sex clenched and unclenched around him, massaging his dick, milking out every last drop of his cum and as I did, Dominic’s gentle kisses on my face, my mouth, my neck set fire to my skin. He ran his fingers through my hair and I sighed feeling drowsy and spent.
Maximus slowly pulled out of me and I immediately missed the feel of him. Dominic gathered me in his arms and laid me against his chest. I sleepily blinked at Maximus who stood near the foot of the bed looking down at us as he said, “I don’t spoon. I’ll see you all in the morning.”
Dominic didn’t say a word nor did I. I just rolled my eyes and settled into Dominic’s arms. I knew I should have been focusing on contacting my brother or the fact that the two men who I just had inside of me weren’t human, but my body and mind were tired. I let myself gradually drift off into a deep, restful sleep. The world wasn’t what I thought it was, but as for then, nestled safely in Dominic’s arms, all at least was right with me.
THE END
The Vampire’s Spell
Paranormal Romance
About the Book
Ariella Fontago is a super smart accountant that lives in Las Vegas. She has a job, and a nice apartment. She’s content in her life. That is until she discovers a horrible truth about her current employers. Suddenly found jobless with no prospects, Ariella makes a decision to count cards for money. She does live in Las Vegas after all.
Enter Lucian Holloway, millionaire hotel and casino owner. After catching the beauty trying to steal his money, he does something unthinkable. He offers her a job working for him. There is one little issue though; Lucian is a vampire.
Ariella thinks that she can handle the fact that Lucian is a vamp, but when push comes to shove what will she choose, love or loneliness? Can she open her mind to the possibilities of the unknown?
Chapter One
Ariella couldn’t believe what she was hearing. She was sitting in a large conference room with her boss. She thought that they were here to discuss what she had discovered, but apparently her boss had other ideas.
“As I said, Miss Fontago, we are sorry but we have decided to let you go. You have been a valued employee, but sadly that isn’t enough anymore,” Robert Lewis said.
“I don’t understand, Robert. I came to you with the news of a ponzi scheme and yet here you are firing me?”
“That is exactly why you are being fired. Surely you understand that if word got out that things were not on the up and up, it would be a huge issue for the company.” Robert leaned in closer to her, “Let me be very clear here, Miss Fontago. We are letting you go. If we thought that you could be trusted we would still be working together but since you have proven that you can’t do that, we have no choice but to remove you. Not only that, but to ensure our safety we have blacklisted you to all HR departments in the city. And if you want to ensure your own safety I would advise you to stay away from the police.” Robert leaned back in his chair and smiled.
Ariella was furious. How dare he think that he could pull something so high handed and get away with it. She just wanted to yell and scream at him. But she didn’t. Instead she chose to act like the professional that she was. “If that is all then?” She said as she stood from the table.
“I guess that is it, Miss Fontago.”
Ariella nodded her head and left the office. She headed down the elevator and made it to h
er car that was parked in the attached parking garage. She drove home in a daze and made her way up to her apartment. Letting herself in, she flopped down on the couch and let out the tears that she had been holding in.
The entire situation was unfair, and yet it didn’t seem like she could do anything about it. Robert Lewis and his group of cronies obviously were doing something illegal and trying their best to keep it hidden. She had worked for them for a couple of years now, and after a lot of research and number crunching she had finally found the issue; an undercover Ponzi scheme.
Choosing not to believe Robert about the blacklist, she vowed to send out as many resumes as it took to find another job. Ariella had some money in savings but thanks to her shoe collection, it wasn’t as big as it used to be. If she was going to be able to continue to afford her nicer apartment she would have to find a source of income. Surely as an accountant it wouldn’t be that hard to find something, she thought.
* * *
Ariella woke up in a bad mood. Deciding that she would need to lose her grumpiness if she was to land a job, she got up and went to take a hot shower. She let the spray run over her, washing away all the hurt from the day before. She got out, got dressed and headed to the kitchen to start some coffee. She could do anything with enough coffee in her veins.
While the coffee was brewing she pulled up the ‘help wanted’ ads on her laptop. She found a couple that might be okay, so she saved them and continued her search. By the time she had drank the entire pot of coffee she had at least fifteen ads saved.
Ariella started to send out cover letters and resumes to each company. By noon she had finished and decided to clean up the apartment for a bit. Time flew by as she cleaned and scrubbed and washed. She checked her email again and nothing new was there. Ariella turned on the TV and began to binge watch her favorite shows that she was behind on.
