Mistress Of Darkness
Gia sat up in bed, with her heart pounding, her body shivering, and her head sweating. She had another dream about him, they occurred so frequently since that night nearly two month ago. She glanced around the room that her brother had set up for her, almost expecting to see Nikolas there in the room with her. She remembered so vividly the way his hot breath felt on her skin, his smell, sweet cologne mixed with sweat as his body meshed with hers. She remembered the feel of him inside of her, and the feel of comfort and contentment as they lay together after their lovemaking. Her eyes always stung with tears when she thought of him, knowing that she had never felt that way with anyone. So close, so connected. Her thoughts would then always wander to what he was doing in this moment. Was he thinking of her? Was he lost and confused without her, like she was without him? Was he with another woman? Feeling the same way as he did when she was with him. Her heart would always pound at this thought, praying that she was wrong. She got up out of bed, it was still dark out and she opened the small window of her room at the brownstone. She looked up at the moon, another thing that reminded her of Nikolas, the moon was a constant being for them that night, it added a magical glow in the room and to the moment. She sighed softly. “I miss you Nikolas.” She said softly.
Nikolas felt it rising, that craving for blood that takes over his entire being when he grew hungry. He needed to feed and soon. No longer satisfied with animals, he needed to feast on a human. It was late, and he sat by himself in his home. He heard a pounding on his door and his head quickly shot up. He remembered the night not so long ago, the most incredible night of his life, it started just this way. He practically ran into the entryway of his home and swung the door open, overwhelmed at the thought that it might be Gia. His heart sank as he saw that it was not her. He looked at the boy in front of him; he looked to be about 20 years old. “Hello sir, how are you doing this evening?” He asked. Nik frowned at him. “I was driving by and noticed your lovely home out here, anyway I was wondering if you would be interested in purchasing a lovely set of encyclopedias this evening?” He continued at Nik’s silence. Nik smiled mischievously, this boy was the perfect victim, young and vibrant. “Why don’t you come in and tell me about it?” Nik asked. The boy nodded his head slightly; he glanced around the dreary castle uncomfortably and stepped in. “My living room is that way, why don’t you step in and we’ll talk?” Nik suggested. The boy remained silent and nodded his head again. When he turned around, Nikolas grabbed him from behind, pulling his head to the side and leaning in, sinking his protruding fangs into the soft flesh of his neck, sucking on his pulsating vein. Nik moaned as he drank his blood, empowered by the warm energy filling him. He could feel the boy’s body going limp, his heart pounded. Like every time he would feast, he felt a rhythmic drumming coarse through him, the sound of his own heartbeat meshed with his victim’s. When he was done, Nikolas pushed his body away from him, hearing his body hit the floor roughly. Nik felt revived after his feeding, his body warmed, his senses heightened. Colors were brighter. Smells were stronger. He sat down in the chair next to him, slightly dazed by the experience of drinking so much blood. His thoughts then wandered, like they did so often to a woman whom he missed so much. He wished that it had been her at the door, cursing himself for these false hopes, for even if it were her, he could not be with her, not the way he lived his life. “I miss you Gia.” He said aloud.
Gia was driving through the town of Port Charles, having decided to stay and live with her brother; she fell in love with the town. It was not like where she grew up, on the streets of Brooklyn. The town was small and quaint, something she hadn’t realized was something she needed in her life. However sometimes she found the town dull and boring, the only thing that thrilled her about the place was somewhere just at the edge of town. Gia stopped her car at the base of the long curvy driveway. She would often drive by here, her body would change with excitement, her breath would quicken, along with the speed of her heart beat, a quivering from deep within her would arise. This time, as she looked up at the castle, her strong feelings were too much to bear, her heart ached for him, and she needed to see him. She had stayed away from him long enough and it was killing her. Gia got out of her car and when she reached the door, she took a deep breath before knocking on it. A petite, curly haired woman answered the door. “Hello I’m Gia Campbell, I was wondering if I could speak to your employer, Mr. Cassadine?” Gia asked politely. “I’m sorry but Mr. Cassadine is not here at the moment. His work schedule is not typical you see, he is only home at night.” The woman explained. Gia nodded her head slowly, coming to an understanding. “I’ll come back some other time then.” She said smiling. She turned around with her heart beating fast with adrenalin, she was going to come back tonight, and she was going to see her Nikolas.
Gia pounded on the door to the castle, on edge in the dark of the night, shivering slightly more from anxiousness then from the cold. She began to worry that he wasn’t home. But she peered in the window to her left and could see a dim light on inside. She went back and continued to pound on the door, her hand then traveled down to the knob of the door and she turned to see if it was locked. When she saw that it wasn’t, she smiled and turned the knob, pushing the door open. She stepped inside and was greeted by darkness. She gasped slightly at the sudden loss of sight. “Nikolas.” she said, sighing after hearing no reply. Her eyes adjusted to the lack of light and she slowly turned and headed for the stairs.
Nikolas came in the back door, he hated rats but they served as a temporary quill to his cravings. He needed to take a human again, and soon. He became aware of a presence in his home. His heart began to pound. He wondered if he could be lucky enough to have an unexpected visitor to kill again tonight. He heard them at the top of the stairs and silently walked the steps up. He wrapped his arms around his victim from behind, his mind blurred by the thought of drinking blood. He held his hand over his prays mouth and exposed their neck to his mouth. As he leaned in to drink, he was hit by a familiar smell. He closed his eyes and inhaled deeply. A smile curled at his lips and he slowly leaned in and kissed her neck, running the trail of kissed up her neck to her ear. “Gia.” He whispered, causing her body to tremble slightly. Nik let her go and she spun around. Nikolas was shocked to see anger in her eyes. “You bastard! You were ready to sleep with me before you even knew who I was? That’s all I was to you huh? Just another fling. Some tramp you fucked just for the hell of it? I knew it. I shouldn’t have come here!” Gia said in raspy voice as she turned and ran. Nikolas ran after her and quickly caught up to her, wrapping his arms around her. “No Gia listen to me.” He said, turning her struggling body to face him so that he could look into her eyes. “I knew it was you. I knew you would come back to me. Like I’ve dreamt so many times. Please don’t leave!” Nik pleaded with her. Gia stopped her struggling. “You’ve been thinking about me?” She asked softly as she stepped back slightly. Nik sighed as he reached up to caress her cheek. “Every night.” He whispered. Gia suddenly wrapped her arms around his neck, and Nikolas quickly wrapped her up in his arms, pulling her closer, he closed his eyes as he remembered this feeling. Gia kissed the side of his face, feeling his lips on her neck, she pulled back to look at him in the moonlight that shone on them from the window. “I’ve been thinking about you too.” She said, bringing her hands to the back of his neck and pulling his head down. Their lips joined fiercely, and Nikolas instantly opened his mouth to her, moaning when he felt her tongue slip inside his mouth and sucking down on it. The time they had spent apart was agonizing for them both so the moment their lips connected, the passion and the longing that they both felt came rushing over them. The urge to touch one another was so strong that it seemed like only an instant until they were probing with eager hands. Gia ran her fingers through Nik’s hair as she kissed him, feeling his hands caress her butt, pressing her to him so that she could feel through his pants how much he wanted her. Gia reached down to feel him, marveling in the feel of him within her hands. Nikolas moaned as he walked her forward, sitting her down on the step behind her and positioning himself between her legs and Gia instantly wrapped her legs around his waist. Gia fumbled with his pants as she sat down, pushing them off of him when they were undone. Nikolas pulled back from the kiss and his hands moved to her shirt. Gia lifted her hands up so that he could pull it over her head. He quickly removed it and threw the shirt to the floor and devoured her chest, the sexy cleavage that curved over her black bra; he kissed the top of her breasts as his hands reached behind her to unclasp it. He took it off of her and instantly brought his hands around to the front to take her breasts in his hands. Gia moaned as he kneaded them, running his thumbs across her nipples to harden them. Gia shuttered when she felt his mouth on one of her nipples, sucking on it, causing a pull to arise from within her, a moan escaping her lips. Nikolas moved to the other nipple and sucked as Gia moved her legs up his body, her face contorting with a slight annoyance of the barrier of his underwear. She reached down and shoved her hands down his front, grabbing him and caressing him. Nikolas grunted, as he trusts his hips toward her, so close to her body. Gia unhooked her wraparound skirt and leaned back as Nikolas grabbed at her panties, slowly pulling them off and running his hands along her hips. He pulled them off and pushed her back so that her back was arched against the step behind her. Gia spread her legs apart as he brought his head down. Nik plunged his tongue inside of her, tasting and licking her, exploring her with his tongue, finding her clit and slowly dragging the tip of his tongue along it. Gia cried out as her hands plunged into his hair, desperate to hold on to something, feeling like she had no control over her body. She panted as Nikolas’s mouth moved up her body, her juices still lingering on his tongue, placing kisses on her stomach and up her breasts, finally reaching her mouth. Their kiss was smoothing, desperate and needy and their breathing was muffled, lost in a frenzy of passion. Gia pulled back abruptly and pushed him back slightly, reaching out and taking off his shirt and then tossing it to the ground, she looked at him, running her hands along the muscles of his shoulders. She then reached down and pulled off his underwear, wanting to look at him in the moonlight. She let her eyes roam down his body when he was finally fully exposed to her view. He was tilted towards her, his body arched along the stairs, the moonlight drenching his fit body perfectly. She marveled at him, down at his sexy buttocks and his rippled back, running her hands up every curve. To Nikolas, it seemed like hours that he had to wait to touch her again, but it was only a matter of minutes that they were parted before Gia pulled his head towards her and captured his lips once again. Nikolas began to touch her again as they kissed, bringing his hand down and dipping his fingers inside her opening. Gia rocked her hips against his fingers and Nikolas grunted as Gia suddenly grabbed his erect member in her hands. She stroked the length of him, listening to the sounds of his heavy breaths as she worked her hands. Nikolas took her hands and held them within his. “I need you so badly Gia.” He whispered an aching plea. Gia nodded her head and Nikolas grabbed her hips, positioning himself between her legs and entering her. Gia moved her hips to meet his strokes, lifting her body off of the stair under her. Nikolas pumped in and out of her. Their cries echoed throughout the empty castle. Gia wrapped her legs around him, tightening herself around him as he pumped. A scream escaped from her mouth every time Nik slammed into her. Nikolas looked down at Gia, her eyes closed and her lips slightly parted. The vision of her turned him on and caused him to work harder. He pumped until he felt her tension peak, watching her eyes shoot open as she cried out, her body shaking beneath him when she came. She let her legs drop slightly and then she suddenly thrusted her hips up towards him, he shuddered as this practically sent him over the edge. He drove in and erupted inside of her, his body shook as he pumped in a few more times and then rolled off of her. He had never experienced anything like that before in his life, and as he looked over at her, he could tell by the look on her face that neither had she. “I missed you Gia.” He said as tears welled up in his eyes.
Nikolas looked down at Gia as she slept silently in his arms. He had carried her over to his sofa and wrapped a blanket around them, loving this moment, holding Gia in his arms. His finger stroking one of her long braids, feeling her chest move slightly as she breathed against his chest. Gia’s eyes fluttered open and she looked up at him. “No, I don’t want to sleep. Why did you let me fall asleep?” She asked drowsily. Nik smiled down at her. “I tried to wake you up three times.” He chuckled. Gia laughed at the feel of his body trembling underneath her when he laughed. “I don’t want this to end Nikolas. I can’t stop thinking about you.” Gia said, kissing him softly on the lips and then cuddling up against him again. Nikolas let out a slow breath; Gia felt the movement underneath her. Fear began to sink in then. She sat up and looked at his face. “This is it right? You’re going to leave again?” Gia asked. Nikolas looked at her face, his heart aching at the pain that he saw etched on her lovely features. “I have to.” He said softly. “No.” Gia whimpered softly fighting her tears. Nikolas looked away from her. “Gia don’t.” he said. Gia pulled back and looked down at him angrily. “What do you mean don’t? Don’t want to be with you? Why can’t I be with you?” She asked, her eyes hard with anger. “Gia I... it’s complicated OK?” He said. Gia suddenly backed away from him even farther. “You’re married aren’t you?” She breathed, fear filling her beautiful eyes. “No! Gia I’m not married I swear. Please Gia listen to me, I want to be with you but I just can’t. My life is just really complicated.” Nik said. Gia shook her head and stood up, Nik lost his train of thought, staring at her blankly as he looked at her nude body. Gia looked at him angrily as she saw where his eyes landed. “Stop it Nikolas! Why is it OK for us to sleep together but we can’t be together? Is that all this is to you is just sex?” She asked. She self-consciously wrapped her arms to cover her exposed breasts. Nikolas frowned, searching for a decent answer to her query. “It’s what I do Gia. My work is not like most peoples is, the business that I run takes up so much of my time. I work all day long and then I’m only home for a few hours before I’m gone again.” Nik said. Gia frowned as she stepped closer and looked at him. “That can’t be healthy Nikolas. You need more sleep than that. Look at you, you’re pale, are you getting enough to eat?” She asked. Nikolas smiled at her. “I’m fine Gia, really please don’t worry about me.” He said. The truth was that Nikolas was not well right now. He needed a fresh kill, not just some animal, he needed a human. The lack of blood in his system and the energy he used to make love to Gia had drained him. That’s why he remained laying down on the couch. Gia silently walked away from him, and Nikolas watched her collect her clothes in the other room. She had on her underwear and was making her way over to him as she put on her wraparound skirt and then her shirt. She slowly approached him again, and Nikolas held out his hand as she stood in front of him. Gia took his hand in hers. “I’ll do anything to be with you Nikolas.” She said. The word “anything” jumped out at him, but he shook his head at the possibility he was thinking of. “It wouldn’t be fair to you Gia.” Nik said. “What wouldn’t?” Gia asked reaching out and stroking his face tenderly. Nikolas closed his eyes against her touch. The thought of never feeling it again began to plague his heart. He opened his eyes and looked up at her, she was leaning forward now, her face so close to his. “The only thing I can think of is for you to meet me here at night. But only for a few hours.” Nik said. Gia stood up straight, her eyes squinting and a warm smile on her face. She was slightly shocked. “That’s it? Nikolas I don’t care if it’s only three hours, I just want to see you.” She said. “I want to see you too.” Nik whispered, his arms snaking around her waist as he pulled her in and hugged her. Gia ran her fingers through his hair as she looked down at his head. She lifted his head to meet her gaze. “So I can come back tomorrow night?” Gia asked. She sat down on the edge of his antique couch, sitting down next to him and looking into his eyes. Nikolas nodded his head softly, his hands cupping her face tenderly. He didn’t know how he was going to do this. It would only allow him a few hours to feed each night. But he had to. He couldn’t go on with the torture of not seeing Gia. “Yes Gia, please come back tomorrow.” He answered her softly, he pulled her down to him and they joined their lips in a soft kiss. Gia began to kiss him more frantically, holding onto his face. Nikolas pulled back. “Tomorrow night Gia, I’ll be here I promise.” He said. Gia smiled and nodded her head softly. “Sweet dreams.” Gia leaned in and whispered in his ear. Nikolas smiled and their joined hands slowly pulled apart as Gia slowly walked away.
Nikolas had barely laid his head back, when he heard a noise coming from the darkness in his home. He found his pants, hastily putting them on and his head spun as he stood up, and walked forward. He felt his presence and immediately knew whom it was. “Lucky.” He said plainly. Lucky’s white fangs were the first things that came into view in the moonlight, as he parted his lips in an evil grin. “Nikolas you are really getting good at that. But I still see that I surprised you. Your heart is pounding.” He nodded his head towards his chest. Nikolas frowned. His brother always seemed to know what was going through his mind. Lucky glanced behind him. “Who was that?” He asked. “No one Lucky.” Nik answered quickly. He was desperate to keep Gia away from the long-lived grudge between he and his brother. On a desperate binge for blood, Nikolas had clamed Lucky’s father Luke as a victim. His death had sparked hatred in Lucky that Nikolas thought would never die. It had led to his uncle Stefan’s vengeful death. But that still had not satisfied Lucky, and as long as Nikolas was alive, he would always be thinking of a way to bring vengeance to his father’s death. “What are you doing here Lucky?” Nik redirected the conversation. Lucky smirked. He had been there for several minutes before he let his presence be known. He knew what his brother was up to. He was with a woman, and a mortal woman at that. Any vampire knew that that was frowned upon in their world. “I was just coming to invite you to the opening of an opera my friend Quinn has arranged this weekend… Nikolas will you please reveal your fangs? You know I hate it when you hide them. It makes you seem so much like a mortal.” Lucky said, a sarcastic tone in his voice. Nik extracted his fangs with a dull gaze at his brother, not because he asked but because he had been hiding them for so long. “Why would I want to go anywhere that you invited me to Lucky?” Nikolas moved over to his couch and plopped himself down, closing his eyes briefly as the familiar smell of Gia filled his nose. Lucky was watching his brother closely. Could he be in love with this woman? He walked up and sat across from his brother and looked at him for a while before he began to speak again. “Well first of all, it will be an excellent opportunity to feed. There will be plenty of women to ‘seduce’ there. Also our mother will be there and she was just saying the other day that she wants to see you.” Lucky’s voice had hint of hatred seeping through it as he spoke. Nikolas looked down. It had been a long time since he had seen his mother. It would be nice to see her, and his brother was right about it being a good opportunity to feed. Thoughts of Gia filled his mind and he didn’t know if he could handle not seeing her for two days. “I don’t know. I might be busy Lucky.” He answered. “Busy with what?” Lucky had scooted forward to watch him closely in the darkness of the room. Nikolas licked his lips. “Fine Lucky, I’ll be there. Now will you please leave?” Nik asked. Lucky smirked. “Gladly. I’ll see you this weekend.” Lucky got up. He disappeared into the darkness before Nikolas could even respond.
Gia stopped her car and sat there for a moment, taking deep breaths. It felt wrong to be coming to Nikolas’s home for a night of incredible passion, only to have to leave without him again, but if that was what she had to do to be with him than she would do it. Her heart began to pound with anticipation. Nikolas was the most amazing lover she had ever been with. It’s what drew her back to him night after night. There was something about him that was so intense and intriguing that she couldn’t tear herself away from him. Gia got out of the car, pulling her coat tightly around her and looking up at the trees that swayed in the cold wind gusting through the air. She jogged up to the door of the castle and knocked on the door when she reached it. After a brief wait, the door was opened and she sucked in a breath at the sight of him. He looked so sexy in his black sweater. In an instant she was in his arms and he was pulling her into his home, their mouths locked in a passionate kiss. As always, there was urgency in their passion that took over them with a powerful force. It seemed like it was only seconds before they were stripping each other of their clothes, touching each other’s skin, and moving their way over to the couch. They were soon naked, and their exploring hands moved like mad to touch and arouse each other. With his fingers, Nikolas explored Gia’s depths, her warm walls surrounding his fingers. Gia was wet and Nikolas became erect at her eagerness, he ached to be inside of her. Gia sat on the edge of the couch and Nikolas’s back was arched forward as he entered her. Gia cried out, and Nikolas pulled out and drove in again, grunting, as he trust forward. Gia held on to his shoulders as he moved in and out of her, tossing her head back and moaning. Nikolas bent down and sucked her nipple as he moved; the multiple sensations drove Gia over the edge. She screamed his name as warm, exhilarating sensations rushed over her. She wrapped her legs around his thrusting buttocks and guttural moans escaped from Nikolas’s mouth as he plunged deeper inside of her, she accepted him fully and this excited him even more. With one final, powerful blow, Nikolas came; his body shook with pleasure as he clung to her, crying out loudly. Gia pulled him up to the couch and held his body to hers, closing her eyes at the feel of him inside of her and the weight of his body on top of hers.
“I have to leave tomorrow.” Gia sat up abruptly; his statement came so out of the blue. They had been lying together quietly, and Gia’s mind was so enthralled with the sound of the beat of his heart in her ear that his voice had startled her. She now looked down at him with worried eyes. “Where are you going?” She asked. “Out of town. On business.” Nik answered. Gia frowned as she moved away from him. Nikolas didn’t like her sudden absence and sat up to look at her. “Gia it’s been a week. You can’t go one night without me?” Nik smiled slightly. Gia glared at him. “What I can’t be sad that we won’t be together? Well I’m sorry if I can’t be so detached like you.” Gia said angrily. “It’s only for the weekend Gia.” Nik said. “Well have fun.” Gia got up. Nikolas stood up and grabbed her, pulling her to him and kissing her fiercely. Gia looked away when they pulled apart, out of breath and cursing her pounding heart. “I will miss you Gia. So much. Please don’t be mad at me.” Nikolas bent his head to look at her. Gia’s eyes were drawn to his with an uncontrollable force. “I’ve just never felt this way about anyone before. I’ll miss you too.” She said. “Come here.” Nikolas pulled her in for a hug. “I’ll be back in two days. Will you come by Monday night?” Nikolas kissed her cheek, awaiting her reply. “Yes Nikolas. I’ll come back, and I’ll think of you every night we’re apart.” Gia said, leaning in and kissing his lips one final time, before pulling away.
Nikolas sat in the balcony, at one of the many tables in the opera house, and listened to the woman singing to the room. He turned his head to face the blond sitting to his right. He took a sip of his wine as he gazed into her eyes, his lips curling into a soft smile behind the glass. He knew that he had her; he watched her cleavage move with her quickening breath that he was causing. An aching pain arose in his chest as he pulled his gaze down to the glass at his lips. He longed to be with Gia. To have her in his arms and hear the sound of her voice. Nikolas placed his glass on table in front of him and turned around to look once more for his brother. He was the one who invited him and he had only seen him once that evening, when he introduced her to the beauty sitting next to him. He couldn’t shake a nagging thought that his brother was setting him up for something. He didn’t see him anywhere and he still hadn't seen his mother. Nikolas refocused his attention on the woman next to him. “You have the most beautiful eyes I have ever seen.” His lie came out smoothly as he smiled sexily at her. The girl’s lips parted, her eyes grew wide at his comment. She slowly leaned in; she was drawn to his eyes, intoxicated by his smell, and touched by his words. She sighed as she pressed her lips to his, and her fingers plunged into his hair as he thrust his tongue into her mouth, gripping her face, his fingers grazing over her jugular vein unconsciously as he craved to sink his fangs into it.
Gia rushed up the stairs of the opera house, closing her umbrella when she stepped in from the rain. She walked over to the coat check and gave them her coat and umbrella, keeping her handbag with her. She took out the invitation and looked at it again. It came as a complete surprise. She had gasped when she opened the eloquent stationary with the beautiful calligraphy written on it. Nikolas had explained that his plans had changed and he wanted to invite her to the opening of this opera. She was so excited. She had dreamt of going out, on a real date with him for so long. Her heart raced with anticipation. To see him dressed up and to be able to sit next to him and listen to beautiful music was like a dream to her. Gia walked towards the balcony where she was told her seat was, dressed in a stunning black evening gown. She walked in the doorway and searched for him. She smiled as she spotted him, she could recognize his profile anywhere. She began to approach him but stopped as he leaned in to the woman next to him. Her eyes widened in shock as she watched him kiss her, and then covered her mouth with her hand when she saw the woman kiss him back. She backed up abruptly, bumping into the door behind her slightly. She looked on in horror as they continued to kiss, becoming more passionate by the minute. Tears hazed her eyes and she blinked rapidly to push them away. She watched him break from the kiss and turn to look behind him, praying that he wouldn’t see her, he didn’t, he looked off to his left. She clutched her stomach that felt like it had been kicked and left her breathless, as he turned back around and looked at the woman next to him. The knowledge that it really was him crushed her. She thought that maybe she was wrong and that it was someone else, but when he turned around, she saw that it was definitely him. She turned around, with a heart wrenching pain inside of her. All she could focus on was getting out of there, so she ran out, forgetting her coat and umbrella and enduring the rain with tears dripping from her cheeks.
Nikolas turned around with an instinctive pull, just in time to see the vision of braids rushing out of the door. He shook his head, it couldn’t be Gia, his eyes were playing tricks on him. He wanted to see her so badly that he was imagining her there. He got up; he just had to make sure. He excused himself and ran out, rushing outside into the rain. He looked around and didn’t see anyone. It was so dark and the rain was pouring now, that he couldn’t see anything. His shoulders slumped as he realized that he must have been wrong. He turned back in and walked back towards his prey that was waiting for him to return.
Gia’s scream was muffled under the strong hand that was over her mouth. She struggled against the man who was dragging her into the darkness. They were in an alleyway; she continued to try to scream as she was pushed against the side of a building, fearing for her life. “Shhh you’re alright I’m not going to hurt you. But that man was looking for you. I wanted to get you away and I knew that I would scare you if I just snuck up on you, I didn’t want him to hear you scream.” The man said. He backed up slightly and in the moonlight, Gia could see his blue eyes gazing intensely into hers. Her chest was still contracting wildly under his body that was pressed into hers. Her fierce breathing had calmed a bit as she looked at him. There was rain pouring down on both of them and his blond hair was becoming drenched, rain droplets hitting him fiercely. Gia nodded her head underneath him and Lucky grinned as he removed his hand from her mouth. Gia gasped for air when he let her go. It was out of character for her to not yell at him and fight with him because he had scared the shit out of her, but he seemed to have some sort of hold over her, and she couldn’t look away or say anything. She had bitten her lip in her struggle and the blood that dripped from it was unnoticed by Gia. Lucky stared at the bright red, slightly diluted blood dripping from her mouth. He leaned in and Gia gasped as he licked the blood off of her chin and lip. Lucky moaned, as he tasted her blood, closing his eyes briefly. “Hmm... you taste so good.” He whispered. Gia was numb; she could only stand and stare at him, entranced by his eyes. Lucky suddenly gripped the back of her neck and pulled her to him. He kissed her, marveling in the taste of her, blood mixed with something else… something warm and exciting. Gia whimpered as he devoured her lips and hungrily tasted her tongue. Lucky pulled back and looked at her, she was soaking wet, her thin dress clinging to her body, he fought the urge to fondle her erect nipples visibly seen through her dress. She was shivering, and her beautiful eyes were wide as she looked up at him. “You look so beautiful, but you’re so cold I can see that. Will you let me take you to my home? You can stay there until the morning. I don’t want you to be out here in the rain. Come with me?” He held his hand out to her. Gia shivered violently in the cold rain, her lips trembling uncontrollably, she looked into his eyes. He seemed so sincere. He had a smile on his face and his eyes were kind. She hesitated, looking at his offered hand and contemplating what he was asking her. She was so hurt, and cold and wet. Her whole body had warmed when he kissed her, and his eyes were so beautiful and alluring. Letting him take care of her felt so inviting. She reached out and took his hand, smiling at him slightly before she let him pull her away from the wall and take her away into the night.
