afraid.” He wanted to reach out and touch her. Now that they were in his bedroom, he would wait for her to make all the decisions.
    She climbed out of the bed and walked toward him. Her curvy hips swayed from side to side, hypnotizing him with the way she moved. She tempted him, drove him crazy with need, and his cock thickened at the sight.
    His heart didn’t beat, and his blood didn’t rush around his body, yet he could gain an erection like a normal man. It was one of those strange, irrelevant things that he’d always taken for granted. Science had grown in leaps and bounds during his five hundred years, yet he never understood how he could eat like a man, and fuck like a man, but he wasn’t a man. He’d not been a real, human man in some time.
    Sandra stopped in front of him, placed a hand against his cheek, and stroked his flesh.
    “This feels right to me. I don’t get it. I don’t understand it.”
    He cupped her face, pressing her back against the wall. The scent of her arousal filled the room, and Lucas couldn’t wait another second. He was going to wait for her, and yet he couldn’t. For a year he’d been waiting for her, and now he had her. He didn’t know how long he would get to keep her, and so he took advantage. Pressing her against the wall, he slid his tongue into her mouth, and took the kiss he’d needed for over a year. She didn’t stop him or push him away.
    There was no fight, and her fingers sank into his hair, tugging him closer. His fangs grew ready to mark her flesh, and he reluctantly pulled away. They were both panting, even though he didn’t need breath. His reaction was still the same.
    Her nipples pressed against the front of her shirt, while his dick grew even harder. She’d be dripping wet.
    “What’s the matter? Why did you stop?” she asked.
    Covering his mouth with his hand, Lucas tried to calm down so that his fangs would retract back into his mouth.
    “Your fangs?”
    “I’m not going to bite you. You’ve not invited me to.”
    “Drop your hand.” She was frowning at him, and Lucas glared right back at her.
    “No.”
    “Let me see your fangs. I’ve not seen them, and so far you’ve shocked me with everything else that has happened between us. I want to see your fangs.”
    The determination in her tone had him lowering his hand and staring at her. He wasn’t afraid, but Sandra had experienced a lot of shocks tonight. The last thing he wanted to do was add to it.
    She cupped his cheek, drawing her fingers down to touch his fangs. They didn’t withdraw immediately, which was another sign to him that they were a mated pair.
    “You don’t have to hide who you are.”
    “You hate vampires.”
    “I don’t hate you. I feel different when it comes to you. I can’t hate you.”

Chapter Three
    Sandra couldn’t believe she’d found her mate. It had to be him otherwise she’d be too terrified to be in his company. Her wolf pressed against the walls of her mind, wanting to get a little closer to him.
    She pressed the tip of her finger against his fang and withdrew her hand. A dome of blood appeared on her finger.
    “Take it.”
    “Don’t.”
    His eyes turned to black, and unlike in the forest while under attack, she wasn’t afraid.
    “Take my blood, Lucas.”
    He grabbed her wrist, holding her tightly as he tugged her close. She fell against him and cried out when his lips wrapped around her finger. Lucas sucked the blood from her finger. The action sent a bolt of arousal rushing straight to her pussy.
    “Why are you testing me?” he asked.
    “I wanted to know what it was like.”
    “Now?”
    With her free hand, she sank her fingers into his hair and pulled him down for a kiss. Before their lips touched, she flicked her tongue out, and licked his fang. “Now, I want you to kiss me.”
    Something carnal and primitive took over. She couldn’t fight him even if she wanted to. He held the control, and yet it was she that was taking things to the next
