A Vampire's Touch

Sienna



A loud baying pulled me out of a delicious dream, my body felt used and sore when I stretched. Looking around, I found myself alone. I sat up when I heard the sound again. Slipping the robe over my nakedness, I smiled at how huge it was, trailing on the floor as I made my way toward the glass doors leading onto the balcony. The night was frigid and the smell of woods greeted me as I stepped out. This view was stunning, part rural and part city life. Hearing a slight ruffling of leaves, I moved my gaze to the ground level and was shocked at what I saw. A huge black wolf circled the area no more than thirty feet from the balcony on the first floor. My eyes could not move away from its beauty. Its snout came up to sniff at the air and I froze as wicked yellow eyes swung over to meet mine.



What the hell....



The wolf turned and launched itself back into the thick brush of the wooded area. My shaky legs got me back in the house where I plopped my numbed out body onto the black chaise beside the bed. After a few minutes, I decided a warm bath would do my used body good. Obviously, I was so tired I was imaging things.



Padding over to the bathroom, I pushed the frosted glass doors open and walked into a fantasy spa. The floors were done in a crystal blue tile that had relax written all over them. The vanity was at least ten feet long and the double sinks were like small bathtubs! I sighed in ecstasy when the Jacuzzi tub made an appearance at the far corner. I promised myself the shower would be next.



The hot water steamed up from the tub when I turned the fancy handle, ditching the robe and stepping in. I noticed the bathing salts in a tall crystal dish. Bringing one to my nose, my toes curled at the masculine scent. I dropped a few in the water and purred as I lowered my body. This was heaven. I twisted my hair up into a messy bun, securing it by pulling a strand through in a knot. It was definitely too long. I smiled just imagining the look on Jax's face if I teased him about chopping the crap out of it. Shouldn't it piss me off and come across as controlling?



Nope. Not at all. I loved that he felt ownership toward me. Hell, I felt it toward him. Just the thought of another woman having him...



"Sienna? Are you in the shower."



His sensual voice came closer and I trembled in anticipation. Because I felt adventurous, I raised both legs, spread-eagle and draped them over the side of the tub. That gave him one hell of a show when he walked in. He grinned and I knew I was in for it. The robe slide off his wide shoulders and hit the floor. Water sloshed over the side but really, I didn't care one bit. He settled right between my legs and at my nipple.



"Arrgh. You bit me," I squealed, more water hitting the tile.



"And you deserve much more for teasing me."



He sat down, pulling me astride his lap. Our bodies were soapy and wet, making the friction as we moved...exquisite. I knew this wasn't going to be a drawn out session when he lifted his hips and entered me in one stroke. My inner muscles tightened around him and his groan empowered me. He reached up until his chest was crushing my breasts, his lips close to mine. Looking intently into my eyes, he whispered.



"I'm all yours."



My stomach clenched at his words and a raspy breath left me. Running my hands down his incredible chest, I nudged until he leaned back against the walls of the tub. His fingers squeezed my ass, urging me to move. And I did, riding him into tomorrow.



Within seconds, we flew apart. There was no kissing or caressing, just me moving at a frantic pace and him, never breaking eye contact until we both drifted back to the land of the living.



I seriously wondered how we made it out of the bathroom without busting our asses on the floor which now resembled a shallow pool. Jax slapped my ass, moving me to jog into the bedroom.



"What was that for?"



His smiled wickedly. "Because it looked too tempting not to."



Putting my hands on my hips, I smirked at him. "Funny guy."



He grabbed me around the waist and lifted me. "Go put that sexy dress back on. I have somewhere I want to take you."



I scowled at him. "Now? It's almost eleven thirty."



He picked my dress up and put it on the bed. "I thought you were a party girl."



Next came the shoes. I don't know why but seeing my boots dangling in his hands had my hormones doing a little dance. Again.



"Did I tell you how much I love these on you? Your legs..."



I smiled as he struggled to finish.



"I think I am going to buy you at least a hundred pair in every color."



I slid out of my fluffy towel and pulled my dress over my head minus my panties which lay shredded somewhere. Glancing over my shoulder, I wanted to squeal with glee at his smoldering expression. Instead, I pretended not to notice and hiked my leg up on the bed to zip my boots on one by one. Next thing I knew, he was pressed up against my ass, rubbing his erection into me. Leaning over, he spoke into my ear making me pant with anticipation.



"You'll pay for that later now hurry up and stop teasing me."



He walked back into the bathroom. He must have grabbed my clutch and brought it up because it was sitting on the nightstand. I pulled out my lipstick and eyeliner, making do with the limited makeup. When I walked into the bathroom to see about fixing the riotous mess of hair on my head, I stopped short. Jax was wearing a pair of black leather pants and a thin pewter grey sweater. Can anyone say Yum? He looked fantastic, his black hair still glistening from our time in the water. I found I liked it better short. It accentuated his extraordinary features. He was facing the mirror, finger-combing it when I walked up behind him, snaking my arms around his waist.



"You smell delicious. What cologne do you use?"



He smiled, clasping my hands in his. "I haven't put any on yet."



Jax



After another dose of warm O-Positive to settle my urges, we hopped in my hot rod and started toward the city. A quick call to Cade confirmed what I already knew. Our mystery caller might very well be on site. The same vampire fitting the description had already made an appearance at my club and had now been spotted at The Red Velvet. Glancing at Sienna, I tightened my hold on her hand. I hated that she was about to be hurled into my chaotic world but it was her world too.



Our species had managed to exist among humans for thousands of years. Turf wars had existed back then and continued to exist now. It was through careful manipulation we continued to coexist. In the past, people lived a more simple life with fields of land between them. Wars were bloody and superstitions more easily explained. If a body turned up with wounds to the neck it was attributed to acts of witchcraft or evil arts.



As time progressed, it became more challenging to shield our race. Forensics came into play and questionable murders where investigated, in most cases, leading to dead ends. Vampires on both sides of the war followed one rule; Do whatever necessary to insure we were not discovered.



At my club this was pretty simple. It was geared toward those who wanted to role play with vampires. The only caveat, they were getting the real thing. So if strange happenings were witnessed, it was attributed to the "show" we put on for our guests. The Red Velvet was another animal all together. Humans frequented as much as Vampires. They just had an extra check point added in with the ID, a retinal compulsion to forget anything out of the ordinary that happen in or around the club. Every human entering the place got one. Sienna would not. I didn't know if it would work on her. "You're very quiet." She said.



I gave her hand a squeeze and changed the radio station. The George Washington Bridge was still crowded at this time and it was nearly twelve thirty. This is why I lived in the wooded area of New Jersey. I loved the city but the privacy of being in your own home without hearing the blaring horns of taxis or bumper to bumper traffic? Wouldn't trade it.



"We're almost there."



"Just where are you taking me?"



I winked at her. "It's a club. You'll like it."



She gaped at me. "Clubs are not really my thing anymore. College burned me out."



"I want you to meet my brother. He practically runs the place."



"Don't tell me you own this place too?"



I loved her quirky smart mouth. I could think of plenty of ways to put it to good use. I cursed at my cock as it rose to attention. Moving in my seat, I adjusted the discomfort. Served me right for letting my thoughts travel down that gutter.



"There are four others, including Cade ."



She reached over and brushed my hair back. I loved when she did that. Leaning into her touch, I kissed the inside of her hand.



"I would love to meet your brother."



Cade waited for us up front.



"Sienna, it's a pleasure to meet you." Cade was a flirtatious cad. I glared at him over her beautiful red hair. He smirked and winked at me.



"I hope our drinks are ready in the V.I.P lounge?" I asked, sarcastically.



"Onyx is all over it." He answered.



Sienna glanced at me and raised an eyebrow. "Who is Onyx?'



Before I could answer, Cade swept in and took Sienna from my arms. I was seriously going to have to kick his ass.



"Only the best bartender on this side of Manhattan. I'll take you over to have a chat."



I glared after him as he walked over to the main bar. Sienna looked back at me and smiled reassuringly. Throwing both hands in the air I followed like a petulant child.



Watching Onyx work was always a joy. She was professional and an expert at creating original drinks. It's what kept people coming back. That and the show she put on. Two bottles went flying in the air landing right at her hand by the neck.



"Love the hair." She quipped, looking at me. I nodded my thanks.



She flipped the bottles over and poured two more drinks as she spoke.



"He looks even hotter now doesn't he?" Onyx yelled at Sienna over the Techno music. I cringed slightly. Onyx was her own island and you had to know her to understand where she was coming from. She was blunt, crass and honest. I loved her.



I peaked over at Sienna to gauge her reaction. I think I slipped down the love slope when she smiled. Wide.



"I think so too." She held her hand out. "Sienna. Pleasure to meet you."



Onyx looked down at her hand and I hesitated. She didn't do the touchy feely thing. With anyone.



"I'm not into hand shaking, no offense. Cool to see Mr. Sparky here with a date. It's a very rare occasion, isn't it Cade?"



I rolled my eyes. Cade's snarky comments weren't what I needed right now. He must have seen the warning in my scowl because he shut that big trap of his but the twinkle in his eyes promised future torment.



"I think I'll pass on making any comment at this time. Onyx, can you keep Sienna here company while I speak with my bro?"



"Sure deal."



I kissed Sienna at the temple then followed Cade over to an alcove where she was still visible.



"Stop freaking. She's being watched from every direction."



"Where the fuck is he?"



Cade looked past my shoulder. "Right next to her."
