  Luce was wrapped in a fluffy white robe drinking coffee and eating pastries when Alex came in dressed. “I thought we were meeting the others at 7 for dinner?” She asked him reaching for her phone and checking the time. Alex walked towards her and bent down and kissed her nose. “We are but I have to see my people. So I will be back before 7 ok. Tony and Mark will stay with you outside the door.” “I don’t need baby sitters here Alex. This is OTT even for you.” She told him sulkily. He smiled at her. She couldn’t hold her annoyance, he was too dam cute. “Humour me.” He asked her. Luce sighed. “Ok. But don’t think I’m going to give in this easily all the time, I’m just a bit too tired right now.” She told him. Alex raised his eyebrows at her. “Umm, I might have to keep that up then.” He told her. Luce’s mouth dropped open. “That, that’s not fair.” She told him feeling she was losing ground here quickly. Planting another kiss on her nose, he turned to walk towards the door. “All’s fair in love my love.” He told her opening the door and walking through it. Dam thought Luce. “I did not agree to that.” She shouted at him and dam it all, he was laughing down the corridor. Luce couldn’t help but smile back. Bloody delicious male.

  Steven met him at the end of the hall. “Good eve my Lord, our Lady is well?” He asked Alex as he approached. “She is well indeed Steven, although not keen to have keepers as you may have heard.” Steven and Chris chuckled. “She is worthy of her nic name my Lord.” Chris told him. Alex smiled. “She is. I am lucky male. Now, how are we doing?” He asked them heading into the room that would now be his study. “The building is a mess. It will take months to put right. If we are to have a permanent base here we need another building.” Steven told him. “And one big enough to house our people.”

  “Agreed.” Said Alex taking his seat behind his desk. “What do we have as suggestions?” Chris came to sit in front of him to his left, Steven to his right. “The neighbouring estate to this is vacant and up for sale. It is substantial and has the capacity to hold our people. It is worth looking at and if our Lady wishes a base here, it would be worthy.” Chris told him. “Ok, show me what you have on it.” Chris pulled out a folder and handed it over. Alex took his time looking over the details. It was a good property. He liked it. “How long has it been on the market?” He asked Chris. “Nearly two years. Its overpriced.” Alex nodded. “Ok offer what should be the going price plus 10% to the agent to get it sold on as soon as possible.” Chris nodded. “Done.” Alex turned to Steven. “Bring me up to speed with our people back home?” Alex spent the next hour being the administrator to his family.

  Alex walked back into their rooms to find Luce standing in her underwear, clearly undecided on what to wear. He felt his cock harden. His beast rise. Closing the door swiftly he raced across the room and picked her up, her laughter and squealing telling him she liked it and took her to the nearest wall. As her feet touched the ground he bent, pulled the cup of her bra to one side, opened his mouth and bit down on her breast, lathering her nipple with his tongue as he pulled her blood into his mouth. Her taste the elixir of the gods thought Alex. He pulled deeply and Luce cried out in extreme pleasure as he knew she would, the bite giving her a climax that would rage through her body from nowhere. Carefully pulling free of breast and sealing the wounds, he turned her away from him facing the wall and ripped away her panties. He needed to have her. Luce not expecting it cried out to stop him until she felt his fingers penetrate her. “Got to have you now Luce.” He told her pumping his fingers into her and stroking her clit. Luce moaned as extreme pleasure assaulted her.

  His other hand roughly slipped into the cup of her bra and pinched her nipple. Luce cried out again bombarded with sensation, her body exploding with pleasure. “I will have you.” He told her pumping her harder and squeezing her nipple to the point of pain. “Come for me.” He demanded of her and pressed down on her clit. Luce cried out as her climax powered over her again and flowed throughout her body. Not giving her a chance to recover, Alex removed his fingers from her and lifted her arse back towards him, planting her feet in front of him, he unzipping his cock to let it flow free, it was engorged and lengthened again as he positioned himself at her entrance. Giving her no warning, he grabbed her hips and slammed in. Luce rose bodily to meet his at his brutal invasion.

  He gave her no time to get accustomed to his size or his penetration. “You will take me.” He told her. Bracing one hand on the wall in front of him and holding her breast against him with the other he started his domination of her body. He rode her, fucked her with a pace that not only told her who was in charge but also, just how dominant he could be. He wouldn’t hold back this time, she needed to know just how much he was going to demand of her body. He pushed her hard taking it to the edge. He slapped then soothed her buttocks as he gave her another level of sensation to go with brutal penetration of his cock. “God yes.” She cried out. Knowing her nipples would be over sensitive, he scrapped his nails across them and Luce responded by pushing them into his hands for more.

  Nuzzling along her neck line and shoulder, sucking in time with his penetration, he shifted his hand to the apex of her thighs and drove his hand into her wetness. He found her clit and rubbed hard. She came apart riding his hand and the crest of a wave of emotion blasting through her. Soothing the slick bud by circling and lightly moving over it and up and down her silky lips he continued to pound her giving no quarter. Finding he couldn’t hold back any longer, he bit down hard on the sensitive area of her neck and pulled deeply. Luce screamed. “Yes.” At her release as she came again. Alex felt her legs give way. She was unable to take her own weight now. He held her up as he rode her to his own finish and finally gave in to his own body’s demand for release. Both staggering for breath at the emotional and physical out pouring from both their climax’s. Alex struggled with the overwhelming emotions invading his body. Its intensity scaring him. It was truly amazing to him. This small human could centre his life. Alex placed his head on the top of Luce’s. She was his light.

  “This.” He whispered in an exhausted breath to her. He couldn’t understand why he felt this way, he did not breath as human any longer and didn’t bother to try. He pulled her towards him releasing his bracing arm on the wall and squeezed then soothed her nipple and breast with the hand still inside her bra, laying kisses down the side of her face, he moved his bracing hand down her body to her nether lips and slipped his fingers inside finding her clit and circling it with his thumb.

  “This.” He said again with cracking passion of domination and desire. “Belongs to me and I will have it, when and where I need it. You will open your legs to me or your mouth and you will suck me in. I will take pleasure in fucking you over and over again. I was a Prince of my realm, my people bowed to me and so will you. I come from a time when a male owned his female and I will own you. And in turn, you will own my body and soul. Your body will cream just looking at me entering a room, knowing what I am going to do to you. You will see me and demand your pleasure from me. You will straddle me when your need arises and take out my cock and demand I fuck you or take me yourself. You will not wait for an invitation, you will demand your right from your male and you will demand it of me daily, hourly if needed. You will embrace your passion for us. Be it in the car, the lift, the office, the bath, shower, bed or any dam place we want, when we want, how we want, there will be no embarrassment, worry or concern at our pleasure in each other and you will take it.” He told her finding the strength to slam into her again.

  They had stayed like that joined, him supporting her while she came back to life. He stroked and soothed her body. Giving her time to reawaken her strength and join him. This time he took her slowly, building her pleasure and gave her sensation after sensation, stroking her body, caressing her sensitive places, touching every inch of her body, nicking her body with his teeth, then licking and sucking, slowing building the burning desire within her to where she begged him for release and he gave it to her. He carried her back into the shower, remo
ved the vestiges of her underwear and cleansed and teased her to their joint climax again. Knowing he had to remove themselves or miss dinner. He carried her out covered in a large towel and dried her off. Handing her coffee to revive her senses. He placed new underwear and choices from earlier next to her and kissing her lips briefly, left her to get himself dressed. If he’d stayed any longer, he would have taken her again.

  CHAPTER TWELVE

  Alex listened to Luce getting dressed and timed his entrance with her slipping her shoes on. “You look beautiful.” He told her staying by the doorway. Luce huffed at him. “I don’t even have time to dry my hair.” She told him annoyed. “Do you have a hair dryer?” He asked. Luce frowned. “Not the point.” She told him. Alex tried not to grin. “Come, we will be late.” He held out his hand to her. Luce got up and walked towards him reaching out to take it. “I must remember to walk round in my underwear more often.” She told him cheekily. Alex tried real hard not to fuck her there and then and barely succeeded. “Yes you must”.

  Walking out their rooms and into the hall Luce battled with her emotions. In the throes of passion, when he told her he would have her anywhere and any way he wanted, she was so on board it scared her. She’d never been so turned on in her life. She believed him. Every word he said. This was not a man to do things half hearted. And in his world he was king she realised. In the privacy of their rooms and she knew that they were indeed now their rooms, he would not be leaving her. He would demand her passion and take what he wanted from her and her body tingled and pulsed in all the right places just thinking about it. Her breast’s ached for this touch and her nipples hardened. He was such a delicious male she thought with a skittish smile. She welcomed his passion, his dominance. There was no denying how much her body liked it. Her body shuddered and goose bumps rose on her skin at the thought of his earlier attentions. He knew how she wanted to be fucked. Divine. If this was real, she was so lost. Maybe …it was time. She sighed. She was no good at complicated.

  Luce felt his hand on the small of her back as she descended the stairs. It moved to the base of her spine and then caressed her buttock. Luce turned and faced him. “Stop.” She told him and turned back to walking down. “But it’s so tempting. Anywhere I want Luce remember that.” He told her lasciviously. Luce blushed. Vamp hearing was way too good. “Shush.” She told him quietly turning on him annoyed. “They will hear you.” She pleaded. Alex laughed none too quietly much to her annoyance. “I think the whole house heard you not so long ago Luce.” He told her. Luce stopped descending and turned to him. “What?” She asked both shocked and angry. “Your voice when in the throes of passion is beautiful but… loud.” He told her. Luce flamed. Jesus. Everyone had heard them have sex? Lots of sex, thought Luce. Fuck. Alex reached out towards her and she batted his hand away. “Shit.” She told him and ran down the stairs for her office. “Not cool Alex.” She called out over her shoulder.

  Racing in the door of her office Luce decided that she was moving out. Too close, it was too much and no dam privacy. She pulled up short at a familiar sight. “Liv.” She called out and walked over to embrace her friend who was in conversation with Bit. She’d forgotten all about her coming today for her interview. Some friend she was. “How’d the interview go?” Luce asked her. “I got the job. Start tonight.” Luce was so happy for her friend. “That’s great. We get to work together, it will be like old times.” She told her. “I guess you’ll be in the room across the hall. I used to use it but this is better for all our stuff. It’s a nice room with a fantastic desk. It’s already set up for the network and comp lines and phones so you should be good to go. What equipment do you need? Give me a list and it will all be here by tomorrow.”

  Luce knew she was running off at the mouth trying to make up for not being there for her friend. But she couldn’t help it. Just thinking she’d been fucking when her friend might had needed her was distressing in a way Luce didn’t want to think about. Liv gave her the basics that she expected. Luce passed it on to Brian. “Order what we need.” She told him. “Did Regin tell you you will have to take self-defence and be able to use a gun?” She asked Liv. “Yes she did. But you know I did all that with Dad, so I’m hoping I only need a brush up. That’s all I did keep up while he was ill. It kinda comforted him I think knowing I could protect myself.” Luce felt sad for her friend. Her Dad had been a lovely caring man who insisted that his only daughter, his only child, could take care of herself. He was gone far too soon.

  A familiar head came around the door frame. “Are you coming into dinner?” He asked her. “No too busy.” She told him sharply. Alex raised his eyebrows at her. She was hiding she knew it. “Luce, its vamp nature. Get used to it.” He told her before disappearing. Bloody vamp she thought. She wasn’t getting used to others voyeuring on her sex life. Not gonna happen. She needed a chat with Pete. “Problems?” Liv asked her. “No, just some ground rules need sorting.” She told her friend brightening. Alex would hate that. “Ok, let’s get you set up.” Luce led Liv out the door and straight into Chris. He’d been hoovering by the door. “My apologises my Lady, I am waiting on your security to arrive. I will be with you in the meantime.” “Liv, this is Chris, he works for Alex. O I forget, you already met when he brought me to the house.”

  Chris bowed to Liv. “Welcome to House Arturo.” He told her. “Ok well, your office is this room here,” Luce indicated the doorway and walked through it with Liv following her. “O I think the screen can go now, I used it so people wouldn’t think I was Arturo’s secretary and now you are his PA, you don’t need it.” Luce watched as Chris walked over to the screen folded it up and walked it to the side of the room. Wow, it had killed her to move it. Bringing her attention back to Liv, she gave her the lay out. “That door leads into Arturo’s office. This will be your desk. There are various chairs that can be used for guests.

  You can move things as you need them. If you need lines moved let me know. When you’re done, till your equipment arrives, which will be later tonight, I have some info for you to go over and you can join us on the range and self-defence later. But first, have you eaten?” Liv smiled at her. “No not yet.” Luce noticed Chris frown. “Right I will call down to the kitchens so you can meet the staff, we eat while here and anything goes ok. If you don’t Alice gets annoyed and she’s the cook so please don’t annoy her. Her food is amazing.” Luce told her. “O don’t go to any trouble for me Luce. A sandwich will be fine.” Liv told her. “She will eat, my Lady order enough for her.” Chris told her unexpectedly. They both turned towards him. Liv frowned. “I said I would have a sandwich.” Liv told him quietly. “Not enough female. You need to eat.” He told her again. Luce wasn’t sure how Liv was gonna take this. “Back off,” Liv told him sharply. “If I want your opinion I’ll ask for it.” Liv told him. Luce thought ok Liv. “I’m needed next door so I’ll catch you later.” Luce told them leaving the room and making a quick exit. She had enough drama already and didn’t need to get in theirs.

  Alex took his seat at the table. Marcus was up and looking better, his wife and family around him. Arturo and Regin were already seated. “Luce?” Regin asked. “Hiding.” He told her. Regin smiled. “She’ll get used to it. We all have a freak moment.” She told him as Val and Pete joined them, followed by Pierre, John, Charlee, James and Gia. “Dinner is served sir.” Said Jenson coming into the room with Carol and Alice. Arturo appeared to wait until the children were served and settled before speaking of anything significant with Marcus. “I am glad to see you looking better Marcus.” He told him. “Yes thank you Arturo, Alex. I truly believe it was expected that I would die in that hole.” Alex looked to the children particularly Ang. Regin must have had similar thoughts. “Maybe this is not the time for such questions?” She asked Arturo. It was clear to Alex a private conversation was going on. “I have been reminded of my manners.” Arturo spoke to them all. “It is indeed a conversation for after dinner.”

  Alex listened to the polite conversation
around Marcus’s home land and the changes that were taking place in England. It all seemed so far away and yet, part of that land was his and his people still remained there while he had come to Arturo’s aid. He was a master in his own right and should not forget that. Regin spoke at last to the humans. “I think it is time for us ladies to take our desserts into the parlour. Shall we?” Regin rose and led Serenity, Ang and Eve out. Giving the vamps space to talk freely. As the door closed Arturo got down to business.

  “Marcus time is short as you may or may not know. So for expediency, let me fill you in. I was informed a couple of weeks back that you were making a challenge for my territory. It was formal and followed the appropriate protocol from the Council although we are not in Europe. What wasn’t, was what was described as a joint venture between you and Jazel. Jazel had been pushing his luck for some time in this territory. This was then followed up by incursion after incursion of soldiers who believed they were working for you or that was the information they were given, or believed enough to be truly given to us when investigated. They caused plenty of disruption. Many were lost. It culminated in a joint venture with the Wares that border my territory, who had also lost men, we blew up a natural ravine to prevent further incursions into our territories and we took further losses on our side but the other side were wiped out. It was a lot of vamps Marcus, over 200 at a guess. We were victorious.
