The silver chain was wrapped from my shoulders, down my sternum, across my much abused back, and down and between both legs. I had a collar around my neck, cuffs on my wrists, ankles, and my thighs. My 5'4 body was badly bruised, cut, and scraped all over my very naked body, I ached all over. My long brown hair was matted from blood, sweat, and tears, not all was mine, but most was. I was dragged by thicker chains attached to my dainty ones through the ice caves somewhere in the northern hemisphere, I knew where I was, I was exactly where I was meant to be, where I had agreed to be, where I wanted to be. This was the assignment I agreed to take, I was going to get to see him again....... No, I had to keep my mind on what I was here for. All this pain was my sacrifice God will have to see, he always sides with love I will wear my new scars like badges. I finally got to see why I was here, my assignment, and he was beautiful. Sitting on a throne carved of ice and stone he sat, easily 6'5 blond hair enshrining him, he looked up and stabbed me with his piercing blue eyes, blue as the arctic glaciers at night. He was broad and muscular sitting with menacing power radiating off him. The creature carrying my chains smiled at him and its jagged teeth shown through those black lips, its wrinkled greenish gray skin all over, and its red eyes shining because it knew the Viking would pay handsomely for its capture. That's the way of Orcs: war, gold, and sex are their only concerns. I have been lucky I had not been raped. The Viking would be upset if I was soiled, I know that, but black and blue would be fine I was already healing so nothing permanently damaged. "What do you have there creature?" The Viking demanded blue eyes stared directly at me. For a moment I almost thought I had seen a spark of recognition, but only for a moment before his face refroze into a snarl. I knew he could smell what I am, but then again I have spent a week being beating by orcs maybe their filth was covering my smell. "Ain-gel milord." the creature said with a slithering tongue, he said gel with almost a 'sh' sound to it. I couldn't help but be amused in the slightest his words slithered instead of grunted and with the pig nose on his face I thought for sure his words would come out a grunt or oink. I tried to hide my amusing thoughts. "Are we amusing you?" The Viking asked with venom in his tone. Well I didn't hide that well enough. I quickly dropped my gaze to the floor and held my arms around myself. I started to shake I was terrified, I reminded myself that my wings are gone I could be injured severely, even destroyed and the Viking didn't remember me. "Are you what he says?" The Viking got up from his throne still staring daggers at me. I began to cry and shake even harder. I couldn't pull off stoic. "ENOUGH! You child are beginning to piss me off. I know you can understand me. I know my words are coming through. Are you an angel?" his scream startled me and he walked towards me with thunderously loud stomps. "I have no wings, I nothing, Viking." I said with tears in my voice, this was a bad idea, I shouldn't have come, Af was right this was a foolish game and I was bound to lose. My heart broke a little. I knew that he wouldn't remember me, but I still had hoped. "What makes you think she is an angel?" he asked looking over at the creature snarling. The creature gave me a hard kick and I heard a fleshy thud, the air that was in my lungs blew out suddenly. Not that I actually needed it, but it still hurt. "My mensss they ripped her wingssss off themsssselvessss, ssssee looksss" the creature grabbed me forcing me up to my feet and spun me around to show the gashes that were on my back where my wings once were. "What have you to say 'Nothing'?" the Viking asked while inspecting my wounds. Calling me nothing was meant to be a type of tease, but at that moment the truth of the situation hurt. "Once you remove an angel's wings they are no longer angel, they are nothing. Once an angel falls from grace they have no worth. I am not mortal or immortal, I am here between, my father cannot hear my cries, and now I bleed" I tried to explain. "How much do you want for her creature?" The orc said something I was no longer listening, I was thinking on my words, 'my father cannot hear my cries' neither can my brothers or sisters. I am alone here. As much as I wanted this now that I was here facing him I was beginning to doubt I could actually do what I was sent to do. I was snapped out of my thoughts when I heard the Viking scream curses. "You are insane creature! I will NOT pay top dollar when your men have destroyed her! I will pay a quarter of what you ask; if you bring me the wings AND ALL THE FEATHERS I will pay half." "We could not capture her otherwise, she is strong. It took 10 of my best men, 4 no longer walk this plane." the creature said. "What type of angel are....were you?" he asked me. "Grigori." "HA! Your men couldn't take down a watcher. You're damn lucky if I don't take my offer back." "Vampire, we have done business many timesssss. We brought her ssssstraight here, we did not ussssse her. What we asssk isss a fair prissssse." "Viking you should not let the creature lie to you, they kept me for a week, beating me" I said with a hint of laughter in my words. The Viking vampire roared with fury. The orc now realizing how screwed he is came at me with all the fury that was in the Vikings roar. I cringed knowing my words were fixing to come back and haunt me. I stayed huddled waiting for my punishment until I heard the Vikings next words. "You dare lie to me! You come into my home and you dare lie to me. How many deals have we made that you have lied about?" I dared to glance in the direction that the creature was and he was hanging by his throat in the vampire's hand. "Did they use you? Are you soiled?" he demanded the answer from me with disgust. His eyes no longer blue but now red and he was staring directly into my light blue eyes his fangs now protruding out of his mouth. He looked so good like that I felt heated in ways that I had never before. "Used as a punching bag, but I come to you, Viking, unsoiled" {I am positive that will not be the case if I am to leave with them though.} I thought directly to him. I knew he heard me when his fangs retracted and his eyes went back blue. {Most assuredly 'not angel' he thought back.} "You must make amends, I will leave the deal at a quarter and to make up for your insolence you will bring all of the feathers from her wings. All of them and I will not kill you." said the Viking as he put the creature down. "Why do you want her featherssss? They cannot be put back on, they are ssscattered to the windsss now." "Then I suggest that you and your 'MENS' scatter to find them. I want them because I want them and once the deal is done she will be my property as will her wings be." the Viking's eyes started to turn red again as if to stress his point. "Yesss of courssse. Thank you vamp....milord." the creature backed away bowing. Once he backed himself out of the room I was now standing alone with the Viking vampire I had came to see, the creature ran, stumbled, fell, picked himself up, and continued his run out of the ice cave he brought me to. "Have you eaten? Now that you are no longer angel you should probably eat food your body will need sustenance." he turned away from me. I looked around for the first time really taking in my surroundings this looked so much like the castle he grew up in only lots more ice. "No Viking I have not eaten. What do you plan on doing with me? I am not one of the arcs so I am not a warrior, I am not a reaper, I am not even a guardian, and I cannot be used as a weapon. I am fearful." I fell to his feet. Af was right, this was going to lead me to hell, and I should've stayed on my hill, kept watch as I was made to do. "Why do you keep calling me Viking, Angel? I have not been a Viking in many many years, there are no Vikings left." he said with sorrow in his voice and his eyes closed as if not to allow the memories escape. "Why do you keep calling me angel? I am no longer that I am nothing now." The realization hit me, I was nothing, I was nothing, nothing, nothing at all I was no longer anything. I have thrown it all away on old tales and memories on what should've never been. "What would you have me call you? I will not call you 'nothing'. I could call you fallen." I hung my head and for the first time in many many years I cried a truly sorrowful cry, I am fallen, I have fallen out of the graces of my father. What have I done? I collapse on the floor, I know my mission was here, but I now knew Af, my brother, the angle of morning light, he said "this is a fools mission and there is NO way a good outcome can possibly happen." he was right. Even if I got what I was here after, there was no real eternity for me any longer. "OK, ok come on let's get you up, get some food into you, get some clothes on you and see if we can find someone to get the silver off of you." He was being kind to me, he lifted me off the ground and allowed me to fall into his chest, and my head fell to the bottom of his sternum. He is monstrous compared to me, but he was being so gentle. "My name is........" "I know your name Steinn son of Erlingr" I said interrupting him with my head against his hard body, his clothing keeping him safe from all the silver wrapped around me. "No one has called me that in almost 1,000 years." he said shocked with his head tilted back holding me closer to him. "I think we are going to give you that bath first you smell of orc and as much as I hate to be rude to you, it's turning my stomach." he held me away; I noticed a twinkle in his eye. He was trying to lighten the mood I'm guessing. He is so beautiful. "What do they call you now?" I wondered out loud, "You said no one has called you Steinn in almost 1,000 years. What do they call you then?" "Master, my lord mostly" he cracked a smile, it's kind of funny how he amuses himself. "When I go to the new land I go by Gunnar Steiner. I guess you can call me Gunnar, or master I'll leave the choice to you." He looked at me with such compassion; I was not prepared for compassion from a vampire or a Viking. Who would have thought it? "Now who can we call to get this silver off of you? It is poisonous for most of us here. Dammit! I shouldn't have let that little fuck go without making him release you first. I wasn't thinking. FUCK!" you could see the anger starting to boil in him. "I will send for him. I will make it worth his wild to come quick. Hold on till then OK." Gunnar looked towards the entrance way and I seen a tall, rail thin man, with a slight blue complexion, his hair white, his eyes the color of glass, he nods his head and takes off in a blur. "Quiquern?" I asked I had never seen one in the many years I have watched over the earth. "No, Ijirait." He answered. "I think you could take a bath even with the silvers on, they don't seem to be burning you and they are fairly loose. Come." he took my hand and was leading me towards the opposite way of the entrance I had came through. "I thought that Ijirait were stealers of children, and you have one working for you?" I asked in horror. "Nothing is as simple as it appears, come angel let's get the smell of orc off of you." he said still pulling me by my hands. He pulled me through a secret passage way into a massive bedroom that is all dark made out of carved stone there were no windows. There was a king size bed with black satin sheets and furs on top. That was where I want to go, but I did feel like I had a layer of filth, oh wait I did have a layer of filth covering me bleh I felt gross. He continued to lead me until we come to another door once he opened it there was a bathroom that magazines write about. The tub was already full of hot bubbling water, it was so bright in there, like stepping into heaven, and it smelled so good like a tropical beach. He lead me to the shower first and turned the knobs. "Let's hose you off before you get into the tub no reason to let you stew in orc filth." Oh once that water hit me I felt like all the nasty, the stink, the dried blood, all the disgusting week I had was being washed away. This felt so good he carefully got in behind me still clothed and he began washing me the best he could. So much silver was covering my body there really wasn't a lot he could touch. He started washing my hair; the shampoo smelled like vanilla I loved it. He carefully washed my face I looked up into his eyes remembering home. "You have a fractured orbital socket; they also fractured your jaw. It's already almost healed." His hands started to go down my shoulders and I heard a sizzle and his breathed in sharply I look quickly towards the noise and realize that his thumb came into contact with the silver. It quickly turned red and blistered. "It was smart of them to wrap you in silver, I have to be cautious touching you." he said looking at the blisters now left. I took the soap out of his hand the blistered area quickly became pink so I kiss it lightly and began lathering myself up everywhere he watched intently I smelled like a vanilla bean I kind of wanted to lick myself to see if I tasted like vanilla too. I kind of wanted to taste him because he looked like he would taste like vanilla ice cream. "Master" I heard I immediately lowered my gaze down to the floor. Gunnar turned the water off and stepped out of the shower leaving me behind. "The orc is in the throne room waiting. He wasn't willing to help at first, but he is now I made sure of it." the voice was so deep it almost rumbled. Gunnar didn't say anything he walked over to a cabinet and grabed a white towel came back to me and wrapped me in it. "Come angel......." "They call me Abigail." I said interrupting him, I am no longer angel, I had fallen, and I was a disgrace to the word angel. "Come Abigail; let's get these chains off of you." He grabbed my left bicep to led me out and the pain there was horrible I cried out a little. Gunnar turned back to me and inspected my arm where his hand was. "It's broke, I am sorry Abigail." he said with tight lips and then moved to my other side and held my hand leading me towards the bed and sat me there. He turned away from me and began taking off his clothes. I got a view to die for (maybe not funny since I had fallen for this view and will not be allowed back into my home) his chest looked like it was chiseled out of marble, he had a sprinkling of hair that went from his belly button down to his long thick cock. His hips formed a perfect V and his thighs were strong and muscular. He began putting on dry clothes hiding that gorgeous hard physique all muscled and broad. My mouth started watering just at the look at him. I had never felt like this. Once he was clothed he helped me up and wrapped a black silk robe around me. I kind of looked like a little girl wearing her daddy's robe and I tried to hide a giggle. "Yes a little big for you. I will have clothes brought for you. Be patient with me OK. I never thought about having a woman here with me." he smiled down at me and we started to head back to the throne room. We didn't go back the way we came in we walk around taking stairs and doors I did not remember. Finally we descended down some into the familiar throne room. "Creature take the silver off of her and live" Gunnar barked. "I sssssshould be compenssssated. I wasssss forsssed, I ssssshould have compenssssation for my troubles." the orc bellowed every time he hissed it brought pain to my body I suddenly felt faint. Gunnar noticed and wrapped his arm around me and helped hold me up. {Are you ok?} He sent to me. {His voice literally hurts my bones.} I thought back. "Creature shut up. I shall compensate you if only to shut you up. NOW TAKE THEM OFF OF HER!" his red eyes, elongated fangs, the snap to his voice, the strength of his hold on me did something to my body, something unfamiliar. I suddenly felt warm between my legs and I quivered in the pit of my stomach, no not there lower. How odd I still cannot explain it any better, but I had no idea what was going on with my body. Everything seemed so new, cold, warmth, cotton, silk. It all felt so strange. The orc slowly approached me keeping his hands where Gunnar could see what he is doing once he was in front of me he hastily and coarsely grabbed the collar around my neck I couldn't tell what he was doing, but Gunnar was watching closely. Once he steped away all my chains and my collar fell to the floor. I held up my wrist for him to take the cuffs off he looked over to Gunnar for permission. "Onsse I take the cuffsss off her ssshe will beeecome powerful onssse more" the orc informs Gunnar. "The sssssilver weakensss the watcherssss." Gunnar looked over at me and I nodded my head. {The orc speaks true the silver does weaken me, but I will never get my angelic powers back I am fallen} I sent to Gunnar. { What keeps you with me?} he questioned. {I can swear fealty to you if you would have me do so.} I offered him. I could tell he was mulling it over in his head, but his thoughts were blocked from me. I also noticed that the orc's speech became more snake like the more nervous it became. "Take them off of her" Gunnar commanded. "And orc what is your name and who is your commanding officer?" "I am Pike my commanding offisser issss Captain Creel milord." the orc said while taking off my cuffs. Once he finished Gunnar nodded and turned his head for a moment. When he did that the orc jabbed me hard in ribs right under my breast. Pain shot through me and made me dizzy I fought the blackness that threatened to over take me. "Braggis, send Captain Creel eight rubies" With that Pike smiled "and my condolences, Pike will not be returning, please explain that Pike couldn't keep his hands off what's mine." confusion then turned to terror crossed the mangled face of Pike only for a split second because in a blur of movement Gunnar had the orc's face in his hands. "You will die for that." Gunnar's eyes flashed that brilliant red and I heard a snap and crunch before I actually seen movement. Then Pikes limp body dropped to the ground. I dropped to my knees, my hands outstretched to Gunnar my head lowered to the floor. "What are you doing?" he asked confused. "I am swearing my fealty to you." I try to explained. "Not here, not now. Come you must be hungry or tired." He looked at me with those incredible eyes and I had that new feeling again where my insides quivered. {Just promise me you won't leave me.} His thoughts came to me in a quiet small almost childlike voice. "I promise you that I will not leave you without your approval." I said trying to reassure him. I knew much about when he was a boy, but not so much about when he became a man or a vampire, but some of the looks he gives he looks like he did when he was just a boy so vulnerable I wanted to go to him and sing to him, but that is one of the things that truly got us into this mess. He nodded his head in a quick jerk of a motion, but there was a softness to his eyes. I shivered I didn't know why it wasn't cold in there, which was a surprise we were in the arctic we were in an underground cave, if I could feel warmth than surely I could feel cold. As an angel I didn't feel hot or cold it was neutral no matter where I was. He looked down at me with almost a bewildered expression then his face set to a determined look. Like he finally had settled something that had been warring inside his mind. We walked into a huge dining area the table was made out of stone chiseled there were benches made of split trees on the long sides of the table and throne like seats on the ends. This reminded me of his boyhood home, the large castle where he grew up. Now that I really looked the etchings all around were even the same. He must have been homesick to some degree. Throughout A Thousand Years Ch. 02 I woke before sunset. Gunnar was still quite literally dead to the world. He looked so sweet and innocent. I decided to get up and look round my new surroundings to explore my new world. The TV was still on the blue channel so I could easily see my way. I just had to get untangled from Gunnar. I don't know why, I knew that I couldn't wake him up, but I still feared my movements will disturb him. He looked so young and relaxed like this. His body temperature was slightly warmer than before and now he had more color to his complexion. He was beautiful before, but now he was absolutely gorgeous. I wiggled out from underneath him and crawled down the high bed we were on. I looked around and noticed the room we were in wasn't square, but was odd shaped: there were no windows and there were only two doors both made of rusted steel. Our room wasn't decorated and had a nasty old smell to it. Red brick walls and cold cement floors, our bed, and the TV was all I could see. I decided to check out the door closest to where I was standing, since it was ajar. I grabbed a hold of the door handle and nothing happened. The door seemed to be stuck and wouldn't budge. So I grabbed on to the door itself and put as much muscle into opening it as I could. The door whined and groaned loudly. I cautiously looked over to where Gunnar was as I was worried about waking him. I knew subconsciously that until the sun went down he wasn't going to move, but the act itself was involuntary. The door opened finally but I saw nothing until my eyes finally adjusted to the lack of a light source. I hesitantly walked into the room not knowing what to expect when I stepped on something hard. This was different than the cement I had been walking on. It gave way slightly and low level lights came on lighting the back of the room. There really wasn't much to see – it was a skinny room with no decorations, no windows, it was made of red brick and cement, and a shower head at the very back of the room with a drain under it. I was kind of disappointed, but I was sure there was more to explore elsewhere. I walked out of that room and went through the other door I had seen. Again I was cautious not knowing what to expect. This door opened much easier than the first. Come to think of it, I am pretty sure this was the door Gunnar had come through last night after spending time with some two-bit, give it up to some guy she just met....ok those thoughts were very un-angelic, but in my defense, I have never ever felt jealousy before and I did not like the way it was making me feel at that moment. I couldn't blame her; he was gorgeous, and I couldn't blame him as he had starved himself. I tried to center myself. I tried to calm myself. He crawled in bed with me, I am his future mate. He did what he did so he could be with me. There was no reason to be jealous. Right? Why was this eating at me? The room I walked into was small, but square with nothing in it, but another door directly across from the one I just came through, so I walked out of it. Anticipation for what I could possibly find was immense. I don't know what I was expecting. I found a small hallway. The floor was littered with broken cement, bricks, and dirt. I could see natural light so I ran towards it. There were passageways but all opened to the outside. It looked to be Rome maybe, but there were no red bricks in Rome as far as I remembered. We seemed to be in ruins of some kind though. I walked to the sun and found brush and more ruins. I could smell salt water, rust, some decay, and I could hear waves hitting a hard surface. I walked around a little thankful that I had put on my boots and in the distance I could just barely make out skyscrapers. We were definitely not in Rome. I was at a loss. I got several scrapes from the brush and debris covering the ground and I could hear birds calling. I looked towards where the loudest of the bird noises were coming from when one of the many sea gulls started to fly at me. I wasn't afraid I figured it would turn before it reached me. Instead it started shifting into a man. I froze as fear shot through me and all I could think about was Gunnar and how I was going to miss him. {Everything I did was for you and because of these feelings I have and have always had for you. Protective, hungry, needy, they are deeper than any love I have ever felt, but I don't know what else to call it. You have been on my mind and in my heart for a thousand years and no matter what happens know that.} I projected my thoughts to him hoping that he would receive it even in his sleep and waited my fate. "Do not fear me. I am Teale, Commander of the sentries here. We're shifters. We patrol here to protect the island." Teale was maybe 5'9, slender, broad in the chest, his facial features sharp. He had light grey hair that looked so soft it made you want to reach out and touch it. I noticed another sea gull flying at me and shift into a woman. Her smile was soft and warm, but her facial features were also sharp and her hair was white. "My name is Chava, I am Teale's mate." Her white hair blew softly in the breeze. I noticed that both had amazing yellow eyes. I smiled at the couple. "My name is -" "We know who you are." Teale interrupted me looking around almost nervously. It got me starting to do it too making me paranoid. "Sentries are never off duty and being in bird form makes us a little more....cautious." Chava said smiling wrapping her arms around her mate. "Are all these bird shifters?" I asked astonished. There were birds everywhere from pigeons and sea gulls to turkey vultures. "No, some are regular birds." Chava answered laughing lightly at my question. "Can you shift into other things?" I asked curious. I knew of many shifters some could turn into many things and some were more specific. "Yes any animal we come into contact with we can shift into." Teale said as he dropped his gaze down to his mate. "I must get back to my duty. Know that you are safe and being watched after." With that being said he shifted back into a sea gull and flew away. "Thank you." I called out. "I miss flying. I loved to fly. I loved the feeling of the wind in my hair." "I could not imagine giving up flying." Chava said sadly. "Where are we?" I asked still in the soft embrace. "I'm not sure. I followed my mate here without question. I know we are on an island, but we are close to a city. The island is nothing but brush and ruins and seems to be man made. You and your companions are the only beings here other than birds and us shifters." "Is it possible that there are other shifters here besides your clan?" I asked "Yes, but we are keeping watch as my husband said you are safe here. We will protect you." "This place is borrrring!" I heard Loki yell stumbling over some debris. I couldn't help but to laugh. Loki never could stand to be still for too long he was dressed like he was ready to go out to a club in his tight red skinny jeans, white pirate shirt, and a pair of plaid converse shoes. "And it stinks, there's bird crap everywhere. Did you see the pile of bones over there? What did I do to deserve this? Why would your old man bring us here?" Loki complained. "Loki this is Chava she is one of the sentry shifters here." I introduced them. Chava looked apprehensive, but offered her hand in greeting. Loki smiled graciously and shook her hand. "Please tell me where there is some fun close by." Loki begged. Chava just shook her head not knowing what to say. It was a small island and there really was nothing except for exploring to do. "We could explore." I offered. "Oh what fresh hell is this? I have a better idea girl, let's go shopping, there is a city right over there, where there are tall buildings there is usually some sort of shopping near. Chava you are more than welcomed to join us, but you're going to have to get dressed. Humans don't really allow nakedness." Loki said in his sing song kind of way. "I don't think Gunnar would like us to leave the island without his knowledge." I said. "Well we can't very well tell him if we are planning a surprise for him now can we? We'll take the sentry with us so he won't get too mad. At least we thought to bring protection. Plus you're an angel, well, a fallen angel, but they are still so much stronger than humans and I'm a Norse God." Loki said as he straightened himself out and stood in a superior pose. Loki hated it when he was called a god, but when he was making fun of himself in some way. "What kind of surprise are we planning for him?" I asked. "Well he fed last night so tonight could be your night to, um, well; take old one eye to the optometrist. So you will need some sexy lingerie to help, how you say, 'get the flag up the pole.' Human women do it all the time." I thought about what Loki was saying and I had seen girls running out to buy lingerie for a special night with their guy. "OK, but we'll take the sentry with us." I caved. It was all settled. Loki, Chava, and I would flash there and the rest of the sentry would fly. We would give them thirty minute head start before we flashed. I ran back to the room where I had left Gunnar and wrote him a note I left it on the bed and I quickly changed clothes and threw my hair into a pony tail. The three of us walked into a little shop in the middle of a strip mall nowhere near the sky scrapers. Loki was so excited to get off the island he was dancing. You would have thought he had spent days there instead of hours. He had just gone out with Gunnar the night before to a bar or club. I was still upset about that though I really didn't want to be. I kind of understood, but not 100%. Why couldn't he just feed from me? We looked through the store and I couldn't believe some of the things I was seeing, it ranged from the most beautiful to the why bother to wear anything at all. The young sales girl walked over to us eying Loki like he was a piece of candy and she had been on a diet for years. I had to stifle a giggle. Women always fell all over him and he rarely noticed unless he was using the sex to get something out of them. "May I help you?" She smiled over at Loki and pressed her overly large, fake breasts out. She was deeply tan all over and her fake platinum blonde hair all flared out like a peacock. I almost laughed out loud to see the way she was approaching Loki. I had to walk away so I grabbed Chava's hand and we walked off. "Why yes my dear.... Jamilynn" he said reading her name tag "we are looking for something stunning for my dearest sister to present her dear fiancé the key to her unexplored fury city." Loki said snidely with a fake English accent. "Oh well! Sister is it?" She smiled like she had just won the lottery. "I think we have something here that will not only make you feel sexy and beautiful, but also make him mad with desire." She said as she finally looked over at me. We went through the many outfits until I finally came to one that I liked a lot. A white baby-doll piece with a lace and ruffle detail at the cups a small satin bow between the breasts with mesh flowing from them beneath the cups and ruffled adjustable straps. The panties were nothing but white lace. Loki said it was too plain and boring, but Chava and I agreed it was perfect. "Oh you know what else you should get while we're here? A dress for the clubs we will be going to. Declan has VIP suites at several." Loki suggesting, raving and closing in on Jamilynn. I was wondering who Declan was. "Darling would you be so kind as to help her find something that really looks hot." Jamilynn smiled touching his chest and giggled. "Right this way." She led us to the front of the store I found a dress that was tight fitting with ruching at the sides, no back, long split sleeves in a beautiful blue that I thought Gunnar might appreciate. "You know I think we have some jewelry in the back that would look spectacular with that dress. Would you help me get it?" She looked Loki in the eye with lust and longing. Her body was now pressed up against his and her crotch was rubbing against his. "I would love too," Loki said with a smile. He looked back at me and rolled his eyes then turned back to her and ground his crotch into hers. Loki's cock was now sticking up out of his waist band. "Is he always like this?" Chava asked me. I had to think hard about that question. Loki was a flirt, and I did know that Loki liked sex, he had a lot of it, and not just with girls or guys. Loki was known to stick his dick in anything. The next thing we knew screams of pleasure were ringing throughout the store. "Uhhh yes, but sex with Loki always has consequences." I looked over to where the sounds were coming from. "Oh God, Oh.... I don't even know your name." She cried. "Does it matter? Bend over onto your knees baby." We heard Loki say. I rolled my eyes over towards Chava and we both laughed. I looked outside the door and I could see several pigeons pacing outside the door and an alley cat. A couple of minutes after the screaming stopped Loki walked back to the front of the store dusting himself off. "Let's go." He said ushering us out the door with bags in his hands. Before he walked out he turned the light off. He waved his hand in front of the camera, shut the door and waved his hand at the lock. "Loki did you screw her to death?" I half joked half worried. "Why were you called to take her pain away? You know if you could take pleasure instead of pain it wouldn't be half a bad deal now would it? If either of us could." He said in a very hateful manner. "Loki, are you mad at me about something?" "No, I'm sorry Abs, look lets grab a bite to eat, the sun is fixing to set, and we should be back before tall and cranky wakes up." Loki said pointing to several restaurants across the street. "I'm guessing that chicken is out of the question." Loki smiled and tilted his head towards our bird entourage. "Loki, what's wrong with you?" I asked confused and dismayed. "What? That was a joke. Ah come one that was freaking funny and you know it. OK, I'm sorry, look there's a Mexican restaurant over there. We should try it out I'm sure they have beef. Your people hasn't been cows lately have they?" Chava just shook her head not wanting to upset Loki any more than he already was. Together the three of us walked over the restaurant and ordered. While we were waiting for our food the sun quickly sank. I knew this was a possibility, but I was scared what would happen if Gunnar woke up and I was not in sight. I waited anxiously for our meal to arrive. I just wanted to eat and get out of there. Actually I just wanted to get out of there I could care less about the meal. I missed Gunnar and I didn't want him to be angry with me. {What do you mean you went shopping with Loki? Why were you scared earlier? What is going on Abigail?} Well speaking of Gunnar, his angry voice was in my head blaring and demanding. {Please don't be mad I was just startled earlier no big deal and we brought sentry with us. Chava hasn't left my side.} I pleaded. {Where are you?}He demanded. Unfortunately I didn't know where Loki flashed us. "Loki where are we?" "Why?" "Gunnar wants to know." "Tell Gunnar to chill the fuck out." Loki snarled. "OK Loki, tell me what is your problem, because that hateful attitude of yours has completely upset me." I crossed the table with my body and got up in his face eye to eye and demanded. {Where the fuck are you Abigail?} Gunnar demanded. "Damn angel! Get your knickers out of a bunch and sit the fuck down." {I don't know Gunnar, and Loki is being hateful and you are mad at me and I don't know what to do and I'm hungry and this place smells really good, but they haven't brought me my food yet, and everything is going to hell in a hand basket.} I said busting out crying. Loki immediately looked at me. "Abigail please don't cry I'm sorry. I get this way after things like what happened at the store happen." "Why do it if you don't enjoy it? Why did you do it?" I tried to dry my tears, but I couldn't. "It's part of the punishment. I am an instrument to get her where she needs to be. I can't take joy or pleasure out of it." Loki shifted his gaze down towards the bags. I knew what punishment he meant. This was my fault." "I didn't know." Is all I could get out. "You didn't know because you didn't want to know. Did you really think I wouldn't be punished for lying to God? Did you think he wouldn't know the truth? Fuck Abigale I took my punishment because I deserved it, because you didn't, because Volney deserved to die. Because I wished I could've saved you. Because your my person, the only person besides my mom thats ever loved me." I have never felt so bad in my long life. I never took the time to think about him being punished. "I'm so sorry." I cried, my sorrow and guilt poured of of me in tears. "Don't be. It's not that bad. They still punished you and that's the worst part. Shop girl enjoyed everything I gave her up to the end." "You did screw her to death!" "No she just passed out. Some women do that after several orgasms. I just shot my load all over her face." Loki explained with an evil smile on his face. "I'm meeting her tonight at the club; you can see for yourself she's not dead." "You can't enjoy sex, but you can come?" Chava asked curious. Honestly I had forgotten she was there. "Yes, and I can't father children ever, but that's probably for the best could you imagine me as a father." He let out a soft chuckle. "Gunnar is screaming in my head he is about to knock the walls down if we don't tell him where we are." Loki eventually told me and I relayed the information to Gunnar. Gunnar finally quit screaming in my head, but his silence was worse. Our food came to the table and it smelled divine. I started eating with gusto ready to finish my meal and get back to Gunnar. When the door chimed I looked that way I don't know why, but I did. I saw the most gorgeous man, the love of my life, walk in. Dressed in black jeans and a skin tight t-shirt, his long blond hair flowing from behind him. He looked like a rock star. "Loki, don't ever do that again. Do you understand me?" Gunnar said straining to keep his composure and his hands from strangling the life out of Loki. "What's wrong vamp? We were just having some fun. That island you have us on is boring, there's not even cable." "You don't have to be there. I took her there to be safe. There are demons after her, to destroy her. How the fuck am I going to protect her if you're taking her out in public where anyone can see her." Gunnar ground out. "You're going to bore her to death. Plus, if I wasn't there during the day, how would you protect her? During sun up you're as useful as a corps." Loki snapped. A vein about popped in Gunnar's temple and his jaw went even tighter. "She is safe there!" Gunnar screamed. The whole restaurant turned to look. {Not if you keep screaming.} I sent to Gunnar. "Look I know that it's not the most exciting place, and it's not the cleanest either. I'm sorry for that. I bought it and was going to clean it and fix it up, but I decided to just stay at the caves instead. It was further away from people." He was really trying hard to control his anger veins were popping out all over his neck and face. "Why did you want to put so much distance away from you and people?" I asked. "Yeah, blood bags can't taste that good." Loki joked or at least played it off as one. "Because I couldn't stand to watch the hate that humans had for one another. They hate because people are different in any small way and their willing to kill over it. I couldn't watch anymore." He took a deep breath. "Finish eating baby." Gunnar tapped my plate with his fingers. Throughout A Thousand Years Ch. 02 "Chava, you can take the flock back to the island, thank you for staying with her." Gunnar said calmly, but authoritatively. "It was my pleasure. Thank you for inviting me Abigail, I had fun." Chava said as she stood up. I smiled at her and she left. I lost my appetite. I couldn't even think about eating with Gunnar mad at me. "Did you have fun?" Gunnar tried to smile. I really hated to answer this question; it made me feel like such a traitor. {You smell like the sun} he sent to me as I heard and felt him smell me. The motion sent shivers down my spine. "Yes, until you got angry with me and then not so much." "What did you buy?" He asked softly peaking around at my bag. "Well it looks like we stole it, not bought it." I said, ashamed and scowled over towards Loki. "No, I earned that and I'll earn the rest at the club tonight." "I don't think we're going to the club tonight. Wait, how did you get here?" I had to ask as the thought came into my head. "I flashed. Most vampires can do that." He smiled. "You might not, but I'm going. I still have to pay for the rest of your purchases." Loki then answered sarcastically. "Do you want to go?" Gunnar asked me softly pushing my plate closer to me. Again my answer made me feel like a traitor to Gunnar. "I have to go. That's where I hunt. You can come with me if you want." "Yes!" I said. I was excited at the aspect. I had gotten a fabulous new dress, new shoe, and even some jewelry. I wanted to wear it. I wanted to show off for Gunnar, but I didn't want him to think he wasn't enough for me. "OK we'll go to the club tonight, but you have to eat and then we'll have to change our appearance and more...a little." Gunnar said in my ear so no one else would over hear. I was curious what he meant by changing our appearance and more, but my mind was more on his close proximity. I ate quickly finishing the wonderful thing called a chimichanga. The crisp outer shell with the warm goodness of shredded beef, cheese, and refried beans, all covered with a chili and cheese sauce. Yes, it was good. I reached over and grabbed Gunnar's face which was still drawn tight. I pressed my lips up against his and then stuck my tongue in his mouth. At first he just accepted my tongue, but then he started sucking on it. It was a great feeling and it was making those strange feelings come back. I felt a tingle at the apex where my thighs met, my womb quivered, and I started to feel warm and flush. I didn't know if he was trying to taste the flavor I was offering him or if he was enjoying me, but either way it was making me hot. I wanted him. I've never wanted anyone in all the years I have seen on this earth or in heaven, but I wanted him. "Hey, get a room. We are in a family establishment. There are children in here for God sakes!" Loki protested. "Gunnar pay the check and let's get go. I have plans tonight." "Loki, I thought you didn't want to be with Jamilynn." I was now confused because earlier he truly acted like he despised himself for what they did and now he was acting like he couldn't wait. "Now we get to do it like I like too. Are you sure her name is Jamilynn, I thought it was Barbie or Jane?" "Yes LANCE, her name is Jamilynn." I stressed the fake name he gave her in the middle of sex. Once I was finished Gunnar paid the check with actual cash and we left. I flashed with Gunnar this time and Loki flashed himself. "I know that the island is boring, but I really couldn't think of a safer place." Gunnar said sounding ashamed. "No, I didn't think it was boring; I was exploring the island. I met Teale and Chava. I wasn't bored. Loki said that we should surprise you since you fed last night and that I should wear something...special." I tried to explain. "So is that what's in there?" Gunnar asked eyeing my bag with a mischievous grin on his face. "Yes, and something to wear to the club if you still want to go." "If for no other reason than to see you in whatever is in that bag." He smiled teasingly at me and my shopping bag. "Come on we need to change in more ways than one." He pulled me into the shower room. "How is there electricity here?" "Would you believe me if I said magic made all this possible?" Gunnar asked. "Yes, I would." "It's not magic. I have solar panels that generate electricity that runs the few rooms that I have it in. Like I said I was going to fix up the island and turn it into a home, but I changed my mind." Loki had walked in and nodded his head over at Gunnar. He was not only carrying the bags he had with him from the lingerie store, but also had two others from a local drug store. He handed Gunnar one of the sacks. They whispered back and forth a bit. I watched them carefully wishing I could hear them or knew what they were talking about. "A purplish blue," Loki said with his brows creased and his eyes cutting over to me. "Are you ready to have some fun?" Loki started rubbing his hands together and smiling over at me like an evil genius. "What's going on?" I asked confused and feeling a lot left out. "Just chill princess, your Fairy Godfather is here." Loki said prancing over carrying the remaining bag and dropping the others onto the floor. "Baby just kick back, relax, and let Loki do his thing OK. I'm going to one of the other showers and I'll meet you out in the field in an hour," Gunnar kissed my head and then lifted my face towards his and planted a soft kiss on my mouth. "Oh, we so don't have time for you two to start that." Loki said pushing us apart. Once Gunnar was out the door Loki smiled. "Ok I'm going to start by cutting your hair – it's almost to your knees." Loki pulled a pair of small silver scissors out of the bag and started trimming. By the time he was done my hair was in the middle of my back. Then he started cutting on his own. "Now we're going to dye it. You're going to be black headed by the time I'm done with you." He looked like a mad scientist for a moment mixing bottles of this and that together. He had one dark bottle full and a tray of blue foam by the time he was done. He motioned for me to come by him which I did nervously. After he poured and scrubbed stuff into my hair and tied a plastic bag on my head. He then put the foam stuff in his and put a plastic bag over his head. We sat and talked, watched a movie Gunnar had on DVD and laughed together. It was such a new experience for me, but Loki acted like he done this all the time, and for all I knew he may have. A small bell sounded and Loki pulled me up and led me to the shower. I stripped down and Loki pulled the bag off my head and we let the water rain down and rinse the dye out. "Do you know what to expect when it comes to finally having your weapon inspected?" Loki asked me becoming serious for a moment. "What do you mean?" I was confused by his statement my weapons are formed using my mind, they had never been inspected. "What I mean is do you know what to expect when it comes to sex." He said rolling his eyes. "Gunnar and I have done some stuff." I answered feeling almost embarrassed. "There's no reason to be embarrassed here, it's just two best friends talking about a guy ok, this is normal. I know you sucked on his salami. How was that?" "He seemed to like it, except for when my teeth scraped." "Oh Owe! Yeah that hurts. Did he ......finish?" The question came out slowly like he was trying to find the right words to say while speaking. "What do you mean?" "Did he shoot his wad? You know let out his baby batter," Loki asked so quickly I almost missed the question. "Yes he did and I swallowed it." "How did you like that?" Loki asked concerned. "I liked it a lot. Did I do OK?" I was starting to get worried. "Guys like that. Is that all you two have done?" "No he has given me oral too." Loki's brows went up. "How was that?" He asked me. "Great, I felt like I was going to explode a pressure kept building up until I felt a gush of fluid down there." With my eyes I showed him where exactly. "You came." He said with a smile on his face. "Yes I came and Gunnar drank it." I was starting to get heated again just thinking about it. "Is that it?" "He put his finger in me." I explained. Loki smiled down at me and then turned the water off. He then wrapped a towel around my head and started washing his out. His hair was blond now. "Good. Ok, we have to change the subject for a minute. You're giving me a stiffy. Do you remember that guy you were assigned to who got gutted?" Loki asked. That was a horrific pain I hoped to never have to relive. "Yes Loki it's not something I could possibly forget." "You remember that he was in the witness protection before the mobsters found him?" I nodded my answer keeping my eyes on him. My stomach started cramping just thinking about that pain. "Well that's kind of what we're in as of now. You, Gunnar, and me; we have to change the way we look, our names, and where we live. Do you understand?" I nodded again. I understood. "Good, now, you're no longer Abigail Grigori. You are now Lorelei Garret. You and Declan O'Brian are to be married soon. I am your brother, Lance. We were raised in Las Vegas. Our mother was Lois and our father was John both deceased. Declan born and raised in Ireland moved to Vegas and worked as a bouncer for the night club you were a waitressing at." "Our father wasn't named Larry? So that's who Declan is. I heard you say his name at the store to Jamilynn." I thought a little bit about what all he was saying. "Ok, but what about Magdalena?" "Margaret Delacruz, the live-in housekeeper from New Orleans." I had to mull over what was being said as there was a lot of information being thrown at me. "Where are we going from here?" "Norman, Oklahoma." "Why there?" "Big enough city that no one really raises an eye brow at the comings and goings of new neighbors, but small enough that most demons don't really have a lot to do with it." Loki explained. "Plus it won't be odd to have a basement, or as they call them, storm shelters." Loki said the last two words stressing the 'r'. I tried to smile. I've been to Oklahoma several times and it was always sunny. "Isn't it a little too bright for Gunnar – I mean Declan?" I asked. "Well, he'll be underground during the days so it won't really matter." "The sun shines there a lot so that means he would be underground a lot." "Look Lori, may I call you Lori or would you prefer Lorelei?" Loki asked "Lori I guess; who came up with that name?" I asked. "Heard it on TV last night and Declan loved it. Of course he was flying pretty high after that blood donation." He chuckled knowingly. "Well it didn't turn your hair black, but it is a very dark brown. See for yourself." Loki pulled a mirror out and showed me. The darkness of my hair definitely changed the way I looked, it even made my complexion lighter. "Come on, let's go Lori. Declan will be waiting and we'll be in trouble. Do you think he'll spank us?" Loki teased feigning thrill. "I doubt he would spank you Lance. You would enjoy it so it wouldn't be much of a punishment." I teased back. "Oh I would very much enjoy it. That reminds me we need to go I've got to meet Jen at the club and teach her a very valuable lesson." That evil grin was back. I had no idea what he was planning and I wasn't sure if I should be envious or fearful for Jamilynn. "Loki, her name is Jamilynn. Say it: Jamilynn." "Jamilynn, Jamilynn, Jamilynn. I got it. OK, so I need to teach Jamilynn a valuable lesson she will need it for her future. Oh, and my name is Lance, not Loki." I had to remember that: no more Loki, it was Lance from now on. It was important to remember that everything had changed. I hope I didn't get confused. I guess going out tonight would be my first big test. We walked out to the yard and a strange man was standing there. He had short dark messy auburn hair. He was tall like Gunnar, but looked broader maybe. The man turned around and I knew by his face that it was my love. My heart skipped a beat and my jaw dropped to the ground, as did his when he saw me. "Declan O'Brian at your service Ms. Lorelei Garret, and may I say you look ravishing." He bowed as he took my hand and kissed my knuckles. He now had the sexiest Irish rogue accent I had ever heard. "Thank you Mr. O'Brian and you look quite remarkable yourself." He was in all black except for his tie which matched my dress perfectly. "Well let's not be late we have reservations and Lance has a date." With that he wrapped me in his arms and kissed me. When I opened my eyes we were in an alley. You could hear the thumps of the bass coming from the club we were next to. "We're going this way." He led me to a door there on the side and he knocked loudly. "What is it?" boomed a voice from the other side of the door. "Declan O'Brian, Lorelei, and Lance Garret. We have a VIP table." Declan smiled at me and nipped at my ear. "You look amazing in that dress baby." He whispered softly in my ear and kissed my neck right below where he had been. I melted at the amazing sensation. The door opened without another word and we walked through. A small woman who came up to my chest who wore strips of black leather and showed pretty much everything. I wasn't for sure I liked this club and I sure didn't want Gunnar – I mean Declan – there. I stiffened looking at her. "Should I dress like that?" I asked as we were seated in a circular booth. "No, I would prefer you didn't. I like knowing that I am the only one that has seen what you have. She is on display to bring money to her master. She is a slave her goods and services are for sale and she dresses to advertise. My wife should keep her goods and services secret for me only." Declan said sticking his hand between my legs and brushing his fingers on my panties. "Declan, old friend, it is good to have you here in my establishment." A huge man with deep lulling voice said as he approached our table. Declan took his hand back and stood up to greet the man. They shook hands and brought each other into a one armed hug. "Ah, this must be Lorelei. I never thought anyone would steel my man's heart." The man stared between Declan and me. All I could do was smile and offer my hand. He took it and brushed his lips across the top of it. "Gideon, this is Lorelei Garret, my light. Her brother, Lance, is here somewhere, but you already know him." Declan introduced me to the huge man. He was the same height as Declan, but much wider, which I didn't think was possible. His black hair hung long and straight down his back. He had a middle eastern complexion and deep dark brown eyes. He smiled at me and I could just see the tips of his fangs. "Lorelei, this is Gideon Kingsley, the owner of this fine establishment." "It's nice to meet you Mr. Kingsley." I said reaching my hand out to his. He looked familiar, but I couldn't place him. "Call me Gideon. You are very lovely. Please excuse me as my work is rarely ever done." Gideon smiled, shook Declan's hand once more, and left us. "He looks like someone I once met. How does he know Declan O'Brian?" "A dear old friend, he has known me by many names and will keep our secret safe. So what do you think of the club?" "It's loud. It's very loud." I said trying to keep my smile. "I'm sorry it's not what you expected, but we actually own half of it. We can leave here soon. I'm going to feed before we leave though." "Why you just fed last night? Why can't you feed from me?" I really hated sharing him. "I can't start feeding from you until two days before the full moon. I had starved myself for ten years and if you want to be able to be intimate then I need to feed so I can be in control of my urges and I don't end up draining you. For vampires sex and feeding usually go pretty close together. I can usually do one without the other, but because of my starvation I don't think I can have sex without feeding. I can and I will feed without sex though." He could see that it was really tearing me up inside knowing that I couldn't be everything to him and he would put his teeth on another woman. "I understand. I'll wait here." I said turning my head away from him. I couldn't look at him. "I wish I could change this. I do my angel. Can I do anything to make it easier?" "I guess it's just the thought of you being so intimate with another woman." "I have an idea. Go over to the hostess that brought us here and tell her we need to book a room. She will show you to a room and wait for me in there. Trust me." "Where are you going?" I asked confused and really not wanting to go and talk to that woman who had almost no clothes on. "Trust me ok, I'll find you in the room." I nodded,he kissed me on my mouth and left. "I need to book a room?" I said hesitantly. "Name?" She said with a kind smile on her lips. "Garret." I said more sure of myself. She led me through a hallway, down some stairs, and along a corridor several doors on each side. She opened the door for me to walk in and I was not prepared for what I seen. There on the floor was some guy with his cock inside Lance's ass. Lance was plowing into Jamilynn from behind while she had her face in some other girl's pussy. The second woman was giving yet another guy a blow job and a final guy licking, sucking, and fingering the guy getting the blow job and getting jacking off by the girl who was giving the blow job. It took me a second to grasp what I was seeing. I didn't know what to do; I couldn't stop looking. "Sister would you like to join us?" I couldn't speak. I just shook my head....no I did not want to join or maybe I did. Lance just smiled and plowed harder into Jamilynn. I closed the door and turned back to the slave girl all I could do was shake my head and give her pleading eyes. "I'm sorry this room was booked under the Garret name." She was trying her best not to laugh and I couldn't help it my laughter just rolled out and she soon joined me. "Let's book you a room under O'Brian." "Is that what these rooms are meant for?" I asked trying to compose myself. "These rooms are used for a lot of things, but that is one of them." She became totally serious suddenly and led me to another room. This one had a living room set in it with a big screen TV. I took a seat in the chair and waited for Declan to come for me. I knew him hunting and feeding is a necessity, but it still broke my heart. I went in circles in my mind. I knew it was important, but I hated it. The door opened and a young man with floppy brown hair came in. He wore tight skinny blue jeans, a two toned grey button up shirt, and a fedora with red trim. As he walked in he was smiling, but when he seen me his smiled faded and a look of confusion which matched mine over took his young face. "Brandon, this is my wife and she is going to decide how we do this, ok." Declan looked the young man deep in the eyes. Brandon dreamily looked back. I was shocked. I didn't know what Declan meant and I didn't know what was going on. I was still in a haze thanks to Lance and his bunch. This wasn't going to be good I could tell. "My love, you know what I am and what I must do to be able to protect you and our family. It matters little to me man or woman, but I can either seduce them into giving me what I have to have or I can scare the hell out of them." "Is he entranced?" "Kind of. He can break it quite easily when he wants to. I see what they desire and I give them the illusion that they are getting it." "I know I'm being stupid." "If I scare them their mind is less pliable and they will have nightmares. Attention will get brought to me and my kind. Let me show you how I do this. Let me show you how I work." I slowly concede and nod my head. He drags Brandon to him and smiles. Brandon hazily smiles back. Declan then turns Brandon to where he is facing me and Declan is behind him. "Are you ready Brandon?" Throughout A Thousand Years Ch. 02 "Is she going to watch?" He asked. "She who there is no one here, but you and me? We're here alone and I'm hard Brandon." Declan said in a seductive voice and placed Brandon's hand on his crotch. "I don't...Wha?..... Yes I'm ready." I could clearly see Brandon had a hard on. He was all breathy rearing back grinding his butt into Declan's crotch. Declan looked up at me and pulled Brandon against him then pushed his head to the side. Still watching me Declan's eyes turned red and his fangs shot out he started grinding his crotch into Brandon and then he sank his fangs into his neck. Brandon moaned and continued pushing against Declan. Brandon's moans were getting wilder and higher pitched he was grinding harder against Declan who allowed it. Brandon undone his pants and his dick sprung free. He started rubbing on it from root to tip stroking it picking up speed each trip. Brandon tensed up and ropes of cum shot out over the floor three long ropes splattering. The thought of wanting to touch myself came to me. I didn't know what to think and I definitely didn't know what to say. Declan withdrew his fangs and licked Brandon's neck. The two puncture wounds healed right before my eyes. "If you love me Ab – Lorelei, you have to take the good with the bad. This is what I am, this is who I am. I tried changing, but I have to have blood. Animal blood don't have the same proteins, and while bagged blood has a lot of plasma and easily calms the craving, but for me to gain my strength and be able to protect my wife, our young, a brother that stays in trouble, an elderly house keeper, and a new born all from demons trying to kill you. I need live blood." "I do love you Declan and you're right. I know what you are and I know this is what you have to do to survive and I'm sorry. Please forgive me for being so crazy." I pleaded. Declan released Brandon who fell to the ground because his knees were so shaky from the massive orgasm. Declan came over to me and with a drop of blood still on his bottom lip and kissed me. I could taste the coppery iron flavor with a hint of some spice that I couldn't place of Brandon's blood on our tongues. "Declan, that was hot." I whispered into his mouth. I could feel his smile. "Brandon, go have a sticky sweet drink and a steak on me. Thank you, that was wonderful." Declan said staring into Brandon's eyes. Brandon got up smiling kissed Declan on the corner of his mouth and walked out. "Is it better for you if I do that with a guy?" He asked me. "If that's all it takes to make you happy then I will do it." "What's it like with a female?" I asked. "Pretty much the same but before you there was usually sex too. However, now I won't have sex with anyone else." He reassured me and I was thankful for it. "Can I see it?" "Do you want to see it now?" He asked a little shocked. "If you're full I understand." "If you want to see it then I'll make it happen, but you have to promise me that you're not going to freak out or get pissed off. I can't handle that." "I promise Declan. I think I just need to see it. My mind is thinking all kinds of horrible thoughts but I think reality is better than my imagination." He thought about what I was saying and nodded. He grabbed the remote off the table and turned the TV on. I saw people dancing and rubbing up against each other. I could see a blond girl sitting by herself in the corner. She was twirling her drink and looking longingly into the distance. "What about her?" "You want me to pick her up and bring her in here?" "Can you?" "Oh that sounds almost like a dare to me. Before I go though, I want to talk to about us. I want to wait until our bonding before we have sex. It's only a week away and I want to do this right?" He blurted out. I thought about what he was saying and he was right. I smiled and nodded. "I'm not saying we can't do other stuff. I am going to have to stretch you before we can actually have intercourse." Oh now that sounded interesting. "You're going to stretch me? How? Why?" I asked my body still humming from the show I was just given. "I use my fingers to get your body used to having something in it. I'm far too large to fit in your tight little hole. I'll split you in two with my cock." He said breathy in my ear. I could smell his scent and I know he could smell my arousal. "Do you still want me to go get a girl?" He asked I was still high from the thought of his mouth and fingers on and in me. I nodded yes. I had to know what the reality was going to be. He grabbed the remote and turned the TV on. I saw the dance floor of the club, and then the camera panned towards the tables. That's where I saw the blond sitting alone. She was pretty but plain and she looked so lonely. She was twirling her drink with in the glass and looking off in the distance longingly. "Her." I confirmed pointing to the girl. He gave me a thin lipped smile then kissed my head. He pushed a button on the remote and the camera stayed on her, and then he left as I watched. It was several minutes later when he finally came into view. He was beautiful, dressed so sharp. I do miss those long blond locks of his, but his short messy auburn hair didn't take anything away from his looks though. He dropped his drink right at her feet. He bent down to pick it up and looked up at the camera to me and mouthed I love you. My heart skipped a beat. The woman bent down to help Declan clean up his spilled mess. He flashed her one of his devastatingly handsome smiles and when their eyes finally met her whole body seemed to relax and her expression on her face went hazy. Declan offered the woman his hand and she took it. He then led her away from the view of the camera and I knew they were coming here. I took a deep cleansing breath in and readied myself for what was to come. I heard her giggle and I had to remind myself that I asked for this and I had promised not to freak out. I could do this. I really needed to do this. I loved him, I was in love with a vampire and he was right. I couldn't just pick what I liked about him and throw the rest away and this wasn't a small thing like drinking out of the milk carton. This was important and unchangeable. The door opened and my heart stopped. I wanted to curl up around myself, but I wanted to be strong for him and for us. "Gina, this is my wife Lorelei and she wants to watch us." Declan said staring into Gina's ears. "I know that you've fantasized about that so here's your chance to show what a naughty little slut you are." My eyes about popped out of my head when he said that. I couldn't believe how rude he was calling some poor girl a slut. He had never shown me this side of him before and I don't like it. "Yes, call me a whore, fuck me like the dirty whore I am. I want her to watch me get fucked hard." She called out. I was even more shocked. I couldn't believe this was happening. {It's a fantasy of hers. She wants to be demeaned and she wants someone to watch her be dominated. I've read her mind. You picked well my love.} His explanation helped me understand, but now I wondered if he really was going to have sex with her. "Lift your skirt and play with yourself. My wife and I want to watch you make yourself come." He didn't even finish his sentence when she lied on the couch and spread her legs. Declan came over to me and set me on his lap. She was shaven completely and her vagina was leaking fluid as she started rubbing her clit in a slow motion at first then she stuck two fingers of her other hand into herself she pushed and pulled them in and out. She added another finger and then another. She was riding her fingers and moaning, and finally she stuck her whole hand inside up to her wrist and pounded herself hard. Once the moaning was over she removed her fist and lots of fluid poured out of her. I couldn't help but get wet watching her. I started to feel uncomfortable and tried to wiggle to find relief. Declan kissed my neck and hugged me against him tightly. {Let's finish her and we can take care of that ache between your legs.} I nodded my head. That is exactly what I wanted to do.{ Let me up love.} I got off his lap and he stood up. I sat back down as he walked over to her. He stood her up and moved behind her just like he had Brandon. He tilted her head to one side looked at me then bit down. She was moving up against him rubbing her backside up and down my man's crotch. He took her hand and moved it back down to her clit. He rubbed her clit with her fingers until she took over and began rubbing it with vigor and it wasn't long before she was screaming in ecstasy and her cum traveled down her legs and pooled into her heels. When she was done he stopped and licked the wound. As with Brandon it started healing immediately. She passed out in his arms he laid her down on the couch came to me and kissed me. Her blood tasted different than Brandon's. His had a spice to it, her's tasted almost fruity. I was hot and my new underwear I thought for sure was ruined from the dampness I felt. I couldn't stand because I hurt so badly. My crotch felt so strange almost itchy or stinging. Declan came over and knelt down before me and removed my panties and then spread my legs. He started licking at my vagina. He lapped at all the fluid that was already there and then he started sucking on my clit, flicking it with his tongue. My eyes rolled back in my head at the amazing feelings that were shooting through me. The sting stopped when he stuck his middle finger into my very wet sheath and my hips started moving. I could feel myself rise and a wave of ecstasy was fixing to crash all around me when with his other hand he put pressure on my backside with his thumb. He didn't push in, but he teased it. I couldn't stop the orgasm now if I tried. My hips started bucking wanting more. He started sucking harder and added his ring finger into my sex. His pinky just entered my backside and I exploded. Declan smiled at me his face glistened with my juices. My body shook, jerked, and twitched for several minutes after my orgasm. I had no control over the movements my body made. He rose ever so slowly and had a predator look to his eyes. He moved on my mouth and crushed my lips with his. He pulled me to him where our bodies were pressed up against each other's. We kissed with hunger and furor that I had never known before now. I started rubbing his very hard dick through his pants. "You make it hard on an old vampire to abstain." He breathed into my mouth. "You don't make it any better on an even older angel." I smiled and finally regaining my bodily movement. "Was that good for you?" He asked full of concern. "You couldn't tell even when your face is still soaked with my offerings?" "I meant the feeding. I could quite tell that my work worked well for you." He laughed. "Can I always be with you when you feed, like I was tonight?" I asked because it was a real turn on. "Do you not trust me?" "Of course, I just thought that if I was there we could...I mean it could always be like this," I tried to explain, "but if you prefer to hunt on your own that's fine. I trust you, I just enjoyed this." He smiled at me and nodded. "I did to much more than I thought I would. I won't have to feed this often soon. Once I gather enough strength I will be able to go down to once a week and the blood I get will be from you and from bags." He explained to me. "But we will get to do this again?" I asked hopeful. "You must have enjoyed this. Yes, maybe once a month maybe less depends on how rich your blood is. Since I've never had angel blood I don't know what it will do or how potent it is." He picked me back up and I was sitting in his lap again. We both sat and watched Gina sleep. "What turned you on most about tonight?" "I liked watching you with Brandon. I liked watching both Brandon and Gina pleasure themselves, and I liked watching their come hit the floor." "What did you like with Brandon and me?" "I don't know, just watching him grind on you, you pressed your dick into him even though you were clothed. I don't know it just turned me on." I felt embarrassed being asked. "This is something we will have to look into more in detail my darling." He laughed "Who would've thought my little angel would be a freak in the bedroom?" "I'm not an angel." I said sternly. "You'll always be my angel." He planted his lips firmly on mine. I didn't know what this said about me. Maybe I was a freak. I was so wet and turned on. I was so confused. "Am I a freak?" I said very worried. He busted out laughing a real belly roll. "No my dear, it just means that you are perfect for me in many ways and this is one of them. I prefer women, but if seeing me with a man turns you on then men are my new favorite prey. You're not a freak. There is a whole room here where there is a show of men and women giving and getting pleasure. Come I'll show you." "OK, show me." I stood up he took my hand and led me out of the room. "What about her?" "She'll leave when she wakes up, or they will wake her up at closing time and someone will hail a cab for her. This is a vampire bar, these things happen. Gideon makes this a place safe for vampire and human kind. We pay plenty for it, but as long as we follow the rules we are all safe." Declan got the hostess' attention and we followed her into another room. In that room there was a large circular couch. We took seats besides strangers and Declan sat me in his lap. His hands rested between my knees and he nods his head towards a large glass in front of us. Behind the glass were Loki – Lance, Jamilynn, and with five new people. I couldn't believe it they must have been at it for hours. There was a tall dark vampire with his dick in Jamilynn's ass as she was riding a brunette guy. Lance had his dick in her mouth and his balls in the brunette guy's mouth. There was an older woman with her tongue in Lance's ass as she was getting eaten out by a tiny little woman who was getting slammed by the biggest black man I had ever seen. I would've been amazed if she could take one of his fingers alone but to take his giant cock. They were all sweaty and moaning writhing together. I sat watching the mechanics of it all. They all seemed to be enjoying it quite a lot. I wondered if this is what Jamilynn was expecting when Lance asked her out, as this sure wasn't what I was expecting. I noticed Declan removed one of his hands from my knees and moved it under me and between us. I was now sitting on it I thought he was going to jerk off and use me as a block from everyone seeing. I looked around the room at the men, women, vampires, and other creatures that were in the room watching the show around us. His other hand pulled my hair so my ear came down to his mouth. "Be quiet unless you want all these people to be watching you." He whispered as he stuck his middle finger inside of my still very wet vagina. He slowly started pumping into me with each pull out it tugged me backwards and I felt a pinch. "You are so tight I'm going to enjoy putting my dick in this hole. I really do fear I'll split you like a melon." I barely heard him as the sound of my blood buzzed in my ears. {Your son will travel out of me the same way your dick will enter me. Neither of you will split me.} I sent the thought to him. He quickly took his finger out of me. He sat quietly with his eyes on me and nowhere else. I didn't know if I had said something wrong. The look on his face was unreadable. He wrapped his arms around me and held me tight to him. He snuggled up against my neck and I suddenly felt wetness dripping onto my shoulder. I couldn't tell where or what was dripping on me. {I don't want to be here anymore. Abigail, can we please leave?} He asked in my mind. I didn't answer I just got up and grabbed his hands and led him out the door. Once out the door I turned and looked up at him. His eyes were blood shot and red all around the outer edges of his eyes. Blood was coming out of his eyes streaking down his cheeks. All this red just made his eyes that much more blue and his complexion look so pale. If I wasn't already in love with him I would falling hard for him now. The beauty in this sadness was heart breaking. {What's wrong Gunnar?" I asked. {You are going to give me a son. I never had thought I could have a son. I never allowed myself to hope for a family.} He cried. He wrapped his arms around me and we flashed out. We arrived back at the island right outside the steel doors. Declan swept me up into his arms and carried me into the room we had shared the night before. I didn't know what to say or do. I just let him hold me as I kissed soft little pecks all over his face, neck, and head. We lay down in the bed he quickly took our shoes off and set me under the covers. We didn't undress or say a word to one another. Once the sun was up he was asleep and I followed suit quickly after him. Throughout A Thousand Years Ch. 03 When I woke up he was gone. I listened for water noises coming from the shower, but I heard none. I started to panic I was still confused about what had happened last night. I wasn't sure if he was overwhelmed from happiness, but maybe he was upset about being a father. Maybe he didn't want to do this. What was I going to do then? What would I do if he chose his own death? How could I live without him? {Gunnar......Declan where are you?} I wasn't sure he could hear my thoughts. I wasn't sure where he was. How much distance could be between us where we could still hear each other? I waited for his answer for what seemed like an eternity. I didn't want to get out of bed I don't know if it was because I was scared that if I got out of bed he wouldn't be able to find me or if it was because if I got out of bed it might put just enough distance that he wouldn't be able to answer me or maybe it was just because that was the last place he was with me and I didn't want to leave his smell. Whatever the reason was, I stayed right where he left me like a scared fawn. {Don't fret Lorelei, I'm close. Go and shower. I'll be there soon.} He said calmly and I finally relaxed. Since falling from Grace I had all these strange emotions I had never had before. I had never felt guilt, I had never had self doubt until now, and now I felt like a small child alone in the darkness. I had never been scared, even when I had to face God's wrath for offending him. I still knew that my punishment would be worth what I had done. I jumped out of bed forgetting how high it was and fell with a loud bang on my hands and knees. During my plummet I had pulled all the covers and pillows off on top of me. I was so glad that Declan wasn't here to see me. I quickly made our bed feeling a twinge of pain still in my right wrist and hand,but ignored it and ran to the shower. The warm water felt good. We didn't have hot water on the island, but it got pretty warm from being circulated around the solar panels. That was good enough. I started to think about the events of what happened last night and what he had said to me. We really didn't talk much when we got back to the island. I comforted him and he let me. I realized when we were stressed we forgot to use our new names and resorted back to the ones we had when we met. That was something we really needed to work on. I had to look at it like Abigail was the angel. Since I wasn't an angel any longer I was no longer Abigail. My name was now Lorelei and Lorelei was fixing to marry Declan and they were going to have a son. I hope he only has to have one name and we don't have to change it. I wonder what his name was going to be. Do I get any say in it? Should Declan get to name his first son it was tradition? That kind of implies that we will have more than one child. Suddenly the biggest smile crossed my face I liked that thought a lot. When I had thoroughly cleaned my body and I smelled like a vanilla bean I stepped out and remembered I didn't have a towel. I wasn't for sure where to look for them. I was stuck in this semi lighted room wet, naked, and starting to get cold. Odd this cold I was feeling. Part of me wished I could speak to another fallen angel to find out what they had gone through if it was similar. The other part of me wanted to stay as far away from other fallen angels as possible. They were evil; when I had fallen I had good intentions. Then for a moment I wondered if any others had good intentions when they had fallen. Was I being too judgmental? {Declan I don't have a towel.} I called out to him shivering. There were no shelves, no closet nothing here just a shower head and drain. Suddenly Declan was before me and wrapped me in a large green towel that was soft and warm. I snuggled into it letting it warm me. It felt so wonderful. "Thank you Declan." I allowed the fuzzy towel to absorb more of the cold water "Can we talk?" I asked. "Yes of course. Is this about last night?" He asked sullenly. "Yes. What happened?" "Lorelei, I think it just really hit me. I mean really hit me that I am not going to be alone anymore. I have fantasized about having a wife and children, a family like a normal everyday person, but never seriously thought about it because vampires can't so I just..... kind of wanted to hold you, to be close and give thanks to God. I felt strange about letting you see and be a part of things like last night because you are soon to be the mother of my son. Those things...." "Declan, my love, WE will be parents, but no matter we should enjoy each other completely and since we can't make love until the bonding I think this is good for us." I held his head in my hands and then kissed his mouth. "If you can't enjoy those things with your wife, then what is the point in getting married? I know where you came from. Those ideas are very old ways when men put their wives on a pedestal and kept mistresses on the side. Is that what you want?" "It's hard to refrain when you are standing here touching me and naked. All I can think about is how much I want to enter you." He kissed me and rubbed his hands up and down my body. "I am the luckiest being on this planet. I have found a beautiful, sexy, smart, funny, amazing, woman who is willing to put herself in danger to provide me with a dream. I love the fact that you are willing to try new things. I love how you make me want to be a better man. I love you. I am a very blessed vampire." He looked up to the sky and then continued. "You need to get dressed. We're going to go feed. The club has an excellent burger I'm told." He smiled at me letting his beautiful white teeth gleam. "I don't have anything to wear. My dress from last night is ruined." I said not wanting to bring up the fact that my cum had stained the back and his tears stained the front. "I got it. There are a couple dresses and suits on the bed for us. We can thank Gideon: he liked you a lot which is odd. Gideon likes very few people. We must be special." Declan teased. "Where's Magdalena?" I suddenly thought. "Margaret is getting our home ready for us." Declan corrected me. "When do I get to see it?" "After our honeymoon we will be living there, but the house needs some work and if you're not opposed to staying here on the island at least until our bonding you'll be surprised then." Declan looked into my eyes seeking reassurance. "Dry yourself, get dressed, and get ready." Declan led me out of the shower room and we started getting dressed on opposite sides of the bed. "I think I would like to meet another fallen angel." I sputtered out. "I think that's a good idea. I really do." He said nodding. "I have feelings that I don't understand." I said quickly. "You can talk to me." "I just thought maybe someone else that has been through this." I said almost ashamed. "Damn Angel! Suddenly my pants are too tight. I feel like I need to unbutton them." Declan exclaimed when he looked up at me. The only clothes I had on were a strapless black bra, black stockings, and a black lace garter belt I couldn't help but to smile. It made me smile knowing that he found me that beautiful. "You look pretty damn good yourself." I said looking at my finely dressed man standing in front of me. This time he was wearing a pair of dark jeans, a tight black tee that showed off every muscle, a blazer, and a pair of converse shoes. I loved the way the tight tee showed his gorgeous rippled chest and the large bulge in his pants. He wasn't lying the tip of his cock was sticking out of his pants. I wanted to ravage him. On instinct I licked my lips. "No panties." he noticed quickly. "Why bother, I have no idea where mine are from last night?" I smiled, trying to look devious not hungry. Declan walked over to me and through me on the bed. He crawled on top of me and eyed me carefully up and down. He rubbed the head of his cock up and down my slit and ground it into my clit. It felt so good I met his thrust. I looked down and my very hard clit had disappeared into the slit of his cock. I loved the way this felt: like his dick was sucking on my clit. Pre-cum bubbled up soaking my clit he bent down and licked it off while he jacked off onto the floor beside us. Declan brought me several dresses to choose from but since I knew blue was Declan's favorite color, I chose the black suede dress that came just below my butt with blue satin cups that held my breast. I picked the blue satin chunky style strap sandals and wore my hair up and huge chandelier earrings with black and blue diamonds. There was even a necklace to match. We flashed to the club and ended up in the same exact place as the night before. There in the alley were two vampires holding a third one down. They pulled one of his fangs out as he screamed then they punched him repeatedly in the face blood bubbled out of his mouth. The carnage turned my stomach. I looked up at Declan with pleading eyes to help the poor man out who was being ganged up on. {The punishment for killing a human is to lose your fangs. During the time it takes you to re-grow them you'll have learned a valuable lesson. If you're caught doing it again you'll be silvered and left for the sun.} Declan explained cold and clinical and then banged on the door. {So you didn't lose control with the girl from the other night, the drunk one?} I had wondered. {No I had help.} He didn't say anything else about it and I didn't feel I truly had the right to force him. He called out our names and we were once again greeted by the tiny slave hostess, who this time was wearing a hot pink negligee with black lace and a black lace choker. "I like your outfit tonight." I said to her cheerfully. "Thank you, I picked it out myself. Your dress is very pretty too." She said smiling at me. "A room was reserved for you tonight and your order is already waiting." She led us away from the VIP section and into the corridor. "Your brother is entertaining here tonight again. He draws a big crowd. Master is pleased." "Thank you and if you see Lance please let him know we're here." I said. "Yes Ms. Garret. Will there be anything else?" She asked. "Yes Lorelei would like to speak with Aaron, and please give our regards to Gideon." Declan gave the girl a hundred and fifty dollar tip. She looked up at him with almost a look of confusion. Once she was sure that he wanted nothing else, at least not yet, she opened the door to our room and walked out. This room was different than our first. This one had a small table set for two, floor to ceiling windows (not real) with the view of the city. There was a cheese burger sitting on one of the plates the other plate was bare. Champagne filled my flute and blood filled Declan's flute. The walls were a midnight blue and our table was wrapped in a black tablecloth. It was beautiful and I was excited. The burger looked delicious thick meat, fresh lettuce, tomato, and what looked to be a fresh bakery bun. It smelled divine and I immediately dove in after Declan seated me. "We are going to have to start feeding you more. I keep forgetting. Lorelei you have to let me know when you're hungry. You will soon be carrying a child." He said almost cross. "That is something we can worry about after we are bonded and once I'm carrying our son. I just want to be a couple right now. I always feel a little strange eating in front of you when you have nothing." "Ah, but I do." He said as he shook his glass at me. "So tell me what would you like to do tonight?" "Are you picking up your dinner?" "Yes probably, but if you don't want me to. I will skip tonight. I had extra last night so it wouldn't hurt me." "I would like to do that again. Bring a guy back here. I'll finish my dinner while you're gone." I smiled. "Yes dear. Not even bonded yet and you are ordering me around." He said jokingly and smiled his dazzling smile at me. "Anything in particular?" "Not that I can think of. Surprise me." I said enjoying the power he was giving me. Soon after he left there was a knock on the door. "Aaron as you have requested." The waitress said with her head peaked in the door way. "Thank you." I said putting my food down and wiping my face off. "You have requested to speak with me." The man who was introduced said. He was tall about 6' he had a very thin, but muscular tan body. He had short curly dark hair. He had hair growing onto his jaw line shaped like thin lightning bolts. His eyes were a hauntingly blue color against his medium complexion. Tribal tattoos traveling up and down his arms. "You are fallen?" I asked. "Yes sister, it is I Nuriel. You do not recognize me?" He said with melancholy to his voice. "It has been a very long time. Why did you choose to fall?" I asked before I thought of the question. "It was not that I chose Morningstar over God. I chose to be with my lover." He said with his eyes cast to the floor. "I did not know you had a lover." "Ubaviel, but she did not choose me. I was cast out and she was allowed to stay." There was bitterness to his voice and I completely understood why. It would destroy me if Declan didn't choose me. "I have heard that you were on the brink of being cast out. I am sorry to see it was true." "I fell of my own choice. I too chose love." I said flatly. "What do you want from me?" He said almost coldly. "I am having feelings that I do not understand and I was hoping you could help me." I was pleading with him. "For half of that burger I will dispel all my secrets." He said teasingly sitting in the chair Declan had just vacated with a smile on his face. I tore the burger in half and put half on the empty plate. He had an amazing smile. I did remember my brother. We did not spend much time together I was a watcher and he was the angel of magic and spells. Which was a big reason magic was pretty much lost here on earth. "Once you fell you were no longer under the protection of God. He kept us from all the doubt. Its mostly what you're feeling." He explained to me. I just nodded my head listening to him. He took a bite of the burger we were splitting and nodded with enthusiasm. "We are more human, but we are still immortal. We now share their fears, doubts, almost all of their feelings." "Like jealousy?" I asked. "Yeah like jealousy, which can be a monster, most humans are accustom to these feelings because they have always had them so they have learned to deal with them. We are at a disadvantage because we have never delt with them so we have to adjust and learn to deal with them." He said then taking another huge bite of the burger. "How have you learned to deal with it, with them?" I asked then took a bite of my half. "Depends on the situation and what feeling we're talking about." He said thoughtfully. "How do you deal with self doubt?" "I have self doubt about everything. I just have to keep going. I push through it." "What about sex?" I asked not knowing how to put it and keep my dignity. "What about it? I really think the questions you need to ask about that should be to a woman. A mortal will work that's pretty much what we are now." He said. "Are you happy?" I asked hoping his answer would be yes. "There are good days." He said finishing off his burger. We both sat there talking. The information he gave me was invaluable and I appreciated it deeply. He explained the more away I was from my own kind the more I would find these feelings bothersome and I would actually start growing old. That's why so many of our kind congregated together, but they stayed away from those fallen that followed Morningstar. For many reasons, but most of all because of the evil that survives in their hearts can poison us. I finished as much of my burger as I could it was a very large cheese burger. We talked a bit longer and then he left. It wasn't too long before Declan reappeared with a very blonde young man wearing black leather pants and a black leather jacket. He had long floppy hair that was swooped out of his brown eyes. "Ky, this is my wife, and she would like to watch us this evening. Do you have a problem with that?" Declan said holding the boy around the waist. "Is she going to join?" Ky asked arching his eye brows in a provocative way. "No Ky, she is mine and I do not wish her touched by any other man. Do you understand?" Declan's eyes became hard and the red glow shimmered for a moment. "Yeah that's cool. What are we going to do?" "Ah very good question Ky. Lorelei what is it that you would like us to do?" Declan asked me eying Ky. "You know husband, I feel so sorry for last night you received no pleasure. Tonight I think Ky should suck that amazing dick you have in your pants." I said, honestly not believing that I'd said those words out loud. I couldn't believe I'd even thought them. Declan gave me a surprised glare that said he was just as shocked as me, but he undid his pants and his cock fell out limp. "My wife wants to see you suck me Ky." Ky dropped to his knees and began licking Declan's cock making sure it was moist enough for it to glide easily in and out. Declan's gaze stayed on me as Ky began working the heavy dick in and out of his mouth taking more each time he went down the slurping noises filled the room. "You know he will never be able to get all of me in his mouth; I'm far too large." Declan smiled his cock was still flaccid. Ky grabbed the base of Declan's dick jacking him off while sucking his dick. Declan's cock grew and hardened slowly. Declan's eyes started hooding over and his body relaxed as his cock was getting pulled he would sway. His breath hitched. "Don't cum in his mouth. Shoot it on his face." I commanded. Ky sucked and licked a while longer. Declan suddenly pulled out of Ky's mouth and stroked his cock till he shot it all over his face. The man was covered in Declan's cum. "I would like to see you kiss him now." I said breathy and starting to ache. Declan reached for Ky and kissed him the sight of Declan's tongue mingling with Ky's and the wads of cum between,it drove me wild and my hand slid down to my clit and I started rubbing it. Declan came to me and removed my hand. "Damn angel I'm about to explode again watching you do that." Declan kissed me and I could not only taste the wonderful taste of Declan, but also I could taste the woodsy taste of Ky. Declan walked back over to Ky and wrapped him in what looked like a lovers embrace from behind. He nuzzled his head into Ky's neck. Declan was kissing his neck and Ky started pushing up against Declan. Ky dropped his pants onto the floor and was rubbing his ass even harder onto Declan. Declan looked over at me with questioning eyes not knowing for sure how far he should allow this to go, but his dick was already hardening. I smiled and nodded and again started rubbing my slick slit. Declan rubbed a little pre-cum around his cock's head and entered Ky from behind. Ky screamed out and bucked harder taking Declan deeper. "Oh my God, I've never had anal sex. You're so big I think I'm gonna rip, I'm gonna.....Oh! Oh!" He moaned and screamed. He leaned his head back on Declan's shoulder I could actually see the head of his dick swell and suddenly cum shot out of him like a fountain. The first shot straight up high in the air and landed on the floor in front of him in a splat. Declan picked that moment to bite down into Ky's neck. Ky's second two shots didn't go up as high as one hit his pants the other his chest. Declan stiffened and his eyes rolled back into his head. His movements became almost stiff and then cum and a little blood started bubbling out of the rear-end of Ky. When Declan pulled his fangs and cock out it the fluid poured out of Ky. Declan licked Ky's neck to heal the wound. Ky let out a shiver and suddenly looked embarrassed. He looked over his clothes which were cum stained. He hung his head and tried to compose himself. I didn't know if he was going to start laughing or crying, but I started to feel bad for him and removed my hand from myself. Throughout A Thousand Years Ch. 03 {I've never entered a man.} Declan whispered in my mind. He then turned away from Ky and walked to the bathroom to clean himself up. {That was sexy and if he can take you up the ass his first time I'm sure I will not be destroyed.} I let Declan know. {I made him bleed. I don't want to make you bleed.} He said upset almost like he was fixing to be sick or cry. "Is everything OK Ky?" I asked him. "I've never done that before. I've never been with a guy. I've always wanted to I've fantasized about it, and now I have cum all over me and I have to leave here and go home to my girlfriend with our cum all over me. Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed it more than I can say, but I can't go home like this." Tears started swelling in his eyes, but refused to fall. "Hold on Ky I'll take care of that." Declan said. He picked up a phone and dialed a number. "Glenda, I am sending you a friend of mine needs some clothes and a shower, and make sure he is okay, put it on my account. Yes. Nothing like that...sex.. anal. Thank you Glenda." Declan turned towards Ky and smiled. "Ky I want you to walk to the end of this hall, at the last door on the left is an office there you'll meet Glenda and she'll get you cleaned up and some clothes. Are you sure you're okay, you're bleeding?" Ky smiled and nodded. "Thank you Declan. Miss it was nice to meet you. That was amazing. I've never experienced anything like it. I have a feeling I'll be using that experience for my spank bank for a long time." He let out a small kind of laugh. With that Ky turned and ran off. We could tell he really didn't know what to say to us. That was okay because we really didn't know what to say to him either. What do you say to a man who gave your husband a blow job and then got butt fucked by him, or to a man who fed your husband and shot cum all over your suite? Why are we already calling each other husband and wife we aren't, yet, even though the sound of it put a smile on my face? "Do you want to go see what's in the viewing rooms?" Declan asked me. I nodded as there was part of me a big part of me who hoped Declan would finger me again. Honestly I didn't care where we went as long as I could feel some part of him inside me. We walked down the corridor and there were two rooms marked viewing. The first one we walked into had the circular couch. On the screen was showing ten men in a circle standing up all with their dick in the next one's ass, each fucking and getting fucked. I could see one man (I think it was Brandon) start to stiffen and his movements became short and quick the man behind him pinched him hard twisting his nipple, but it was too late and he erupted. His body jerked as he came in the guy's ass in front of him and as he came his ass rippled so the man who had pinched him with his cock in Brandon's ass erupted too. Brandon set off a chain reaction. Each man started spewing cum. Declan grabbed my hand and we left that room and walked into the next room. In there I saw Jamilynn strapped to a table her knees pulled up and out her vagina wide open. Lance was standing beside her head whispering to her. He reached over and rubbed her clit until we could clearly see it glistening. He smiled at her and a Satyr rolled another table in. There were all kinds of objects on it. I saw a cucumber, squash, carrots, an egg, candles, a curling iron, a pool stick, hair brushes, cans, a water bottle, a shampoo bottle, night club, baseball bat, a flash light and a couple of other things I wasn't sure what they were. I wasn't real sure what he was going to do with all that stuff, but I had a pretty good idea and I was right. Declan sat down and I sat on top of him like last time. "You asked me to fuck you, before you even knew my name. Do you remember?" Lance asked Jamilynn. She nodded while still moaning as he touched her breast. "I told you to make damn sure you truly wanted a proper fuck before you asked me. Do you remember?" He pinched one of her nipples hard and she nodded again. "I told you I would fuck you, proper fuck you, play with you, and then be done with you do you remember? I made you promise and agree before I would let my dick touch you. Do you remember?" "Yes Lance I remember." She moaned. "That first day I fucked you then last night you got proper fucked well I might add. Don't you agree?" "Yes last night was the best night of my life." She moaned. "Tonight I get to play and you won't stop me." He smiled over at the window that we were on the other side of. He picked up his limp dick and hit her in the face with it. There was a meaty smack noise and she leaned over to lick at it, but Lance wouldn't let her. "Lance has put on the best fucking shows the past two nights." A man beside us said out loud. The crowd in the room all murmured they agreed. "So good in fact I decided to bring in whores to help anyone who feels the need. These are my best whores ladies and gentlemen. They cost, but they are clean and worth it." Gideon smiled and held his hand out for a curtain over the side to be unveiled. Several women and a few men stepped out from behind. Declan snapped his fingers and made a sign with his hand. I couldn't tell what he was doing. "What are you doing?" I had to ask. "Pay backs my love." He said giving me his evil smile. I still wasn't sure what he had planned, but I knew it was naughty. Declan was looking over at Gideon who would point to one of the whores and Declan would shake his head. Finally when Gideon's hand came to our little hostess and Declan nodded. I guess he picked out a girl. She quickly came over to him and he handed her a wad of cash she nodded and took it to Gideon then came back to stand next to us. After all the whores were chosen Gideon pounded on the glass two quick bangs of his fist. Lance nodded his head at the glass and turned back to her. He stuck two fingers inside her and pushed and pulled for a moment. She became even wetter. You could see her glisten and the liquid started running down the crack of her ass. Lance picked up the carrot and stuck it into her using the wide side and used that to fuck her for a moment. She really didn't seem to notice he threw it onto the floor. Next Lance grabbed the squash and inserted that slowly into her vagina. Her vagina would stretch slightly but it gave no resistance. He pushed it as far as he could get it in while still having a hold of it and then pulled it out. He grabbed the cucumber and her vagina stretched even further, but still no resistance. She was mewing and moaning like she loved what was happening to her. The cucumber got pulled out and he continued down the line of items he would fuck her with. By the time he got to the baseball bat I was feeling uncomfortable. My insides were twitching and I began to wish I had worn underwear because I knew my juices were leaking out of me and probably onto Declan's pants. I tried to wiggle a little to maybe relieve some of the stress I was feeling, but it wasn't working. I wished Declan would stick his finger in me, but he didn't move just watched the show. Finally he pulled my hair back tight up against his chest. {Be very quiet and I'll help you, but make a sound or even a wrong movement other than what I say and it will all stop. Is that clear?} He was being very stern and I liked it. {You're getting my pants very wet.} I looked around and there were several men there getting their dicks sucked by the whores or their dates. There were even a few women who were either getting fucked, finger fucked or eaten by whores. The hostess just stood by our sides. I straightened up from my slouching position. {Yes, it's perfectly clear no sound no movement.}I said desperate for this pain to end. He made a hand movement and the hostess came over and knelt before us. Declan placed each one of my legs on top of his, my back was on his chest, and he lied back spreading our legs. The girl pushed my skirt up and Declan pushed it down and ever so slightly shook his head 'no' barely taking his eyes off of the show. She then crawled up my skirt and placing her mouth on my very wet and eager vagina. She licked up my slit cleaning me where the liquid had already started dripping and then she stuck her tongue inside me. I had to keep all my concentration on not moving and not to make a sound. It felt good to have my crotch played with, but knowing it was a girl was odd. This is what Declan meant about pay backs. I made a man suck his dick he was going to make a woman eat my pussy. She was very talented. I turned my attention back to the show in front of me. Lance was fucking Jamilynn hard with what looked to be a shampoo bottle. She was bucking back into it. I couldn't believe that something that big would be enjoyable having inside. He stopped and took it out her juices were a puddle on the floor. He inserted a pop can inside her and walked over to her head and had her suck his dick. The pop can stayed for a short time and then started to come out on its own. It fell out of her and landed on the floor the pop that was in it sprayed out spraying everything in the room including the glass we were behind. He pulled his dick from her mouth and pissed onto her breast. Once he was finished he hit her again with his dick in her face. She was covered in her cum and his urin. The more things he placed inside her the more she wanted. I seen him grab a thin metal rod and he smiled. He grabbed some lube and smeared it on the rod. With one had holding the rod he started playing with her clit rubbing it with the other. She started becoming lost in the sensation moaning and cooing. I started wondering how that thin small metal rod would make a difference when she just had a pop can or a baseball bat. "Do you know what this is?" He asked. "Do you know what I'm going to do with it?" "I don't know what it is, but I know you're going to place it inside me." "Yes, but do you know where?" The smile he had on his face was positively evil. "No. My ass maybe?" She was whimpering. "Oh no my dear you can take much larger in your ass you wouldn't even feel this." I could see her start to become nervous. "This is a sounding rod. This is a small one because I know you've never done this, but by the time I'm done I'll fit a vibrator up in there." "Where?" She asked nervously. "Your urethra it will be a whole new sensation." With that he moved his fingers from her clit down. Between the clit and the vaginal opening was a small hole that we couldn't see from where we were sitting, but Lance found it and inserted the rod inside her slowly and cautiously. She tensed up for a moment, but then relaxed. "That wasn't so bad let's go on to a larger size." He removed the small rod and grabbed a bigger one. He smeared the lube on it and started pushing it inside her. She let out a small moan he pulled it out and grabbed the next in size. The next one was the size a finger. She moaned a little when he put it in, but he pulled it out quickly and replaced it with one of his well lubed gloved fingers and he started fingering it. She was grinding against his finger and he started playing with her clit with the other hand. "This might hurt for a bit, but if you stay relaxed you will have an orgasm that you will never forget." He told her. He pulled his finger out and grabbed a small slender purple metallic looking vibrator he lubed it up real well and slowly started fucking her in her urethra with it. She grunted and groaned, but once it was in he turned it on and all her protest were forgotten. I couldn't help but want to buck my hips and grind my crotch into the hostess' face. It felt so good her tongue going in and out of me. When it was in she would wiggle it from the floor to the ceiling of my vaginal walls. I held still and didn't cry out no matter how much I wanted too. She got a hold of my clit and started sucking on it like it was a dick my breath hitched. I could feel Declan smile. {This is hard I don't know if I can do it}. I told him. {I can make her stop.} He said quickly. I didn't say anything else. We saw a small man come into the viewing room. He looked straight at Gideon and headed for him. Gideon and the man spoke and they both walked out quickly. I didn't pay too much attention to them my mind was twirling with what was being done to me. It felt so good having her soft, warm, moist mouth on me. Declan's mouth wasn't warm, it wasn't cold, but her breath was almost hot. By the time I looked up Lance was fucking Jamilynn with what looked to be a lava lamp. There was a lot of resistance, but Lance was patient and kept at it. Until finally he got it ¾ of the way in and he then pulled it out. The purple vibrator still buzzing inside of her. "What felt the best inside you?" Lance asked Jamilynn. "You." She answered breathy still climbing up the biggest wave of climax she has ever thought about experiencing. "I meant tonight. What did you like best?" "The cucumber I guess." Lance thought a moment looking over his items that he had used on her. He grabbed the night stick and slammed it inside her not the whole night stick, but a lot of it. She screamed from pain at first and as he pulled out he slammed it in her again. After a few slams she started moaning and bucking her hips to take more and more. He quickened his pace as she was enjoying it. I came I didn't move I didn't moan, but I came all over the hostess' face. I couldn't stop cumming she abandoned my clit and started sucking and licking my hole. That was my favorite place to be licked. My vagina sucked at her tongue. I let out a small moan and Declan made a gesture. Our hostess got up and walked away. It was so hard fighting all those quivers. I relaxed I didn't even know I had tensed up. I looked around to make sure no one noticed. Declan just hugged me tight. {Are you ready to leave here?} Declan asked me. {Yes my dear we can leave anytime you are ready.} I did my best to sound unshaken by the events that just took place. Declan snapped his fingers again and the hostess came back. "Yes sir." "We would like to give you a tip." Declan unrolled several hundred dollars and handed her five of them. "My wife would like to thank you for your services." "Uh, um, thank you so much sir. I'm so glad you enjoyed me Mrs. O'Brian." She stammered. "Yes, thank you. You are very good." I said whispered still trying to control the shakiness of my voice. "I am glad you enjoyed it. You taste very good." She said smiling at me. You could suddenly hear Jamilynn screaming in ecstasy I looked over towards the glass and a stream of cum shot out of her. I had never seen a woman cum like that. I didn't know it was possible for a woman to shoot cum like a man. I was amazed. Lance took the night club out of her and then the purple vibrator. "Like honey." Declan said regaining my attention. "Yes you taste just like honey I enjoyed eating you." "Now when we get to the island I'll take my turn and you can tell me who is better." He teased. "Oh now sweetheart she is a professional." I couldn't resist teasing him back. "GRRR woman you dare challenge me!" We laughed and he flipped me over his shoulder. "I'm done playing with you for now. Did you enjoy it?" Lance asked Jamilynn. "Some parts more than others." She replied as her body jerked and twitched. "Tomorrow if you come back here I will play with your ass. Do you understand?" Lance was giving her a fair warning. He was trying to dissuade her from coming back. I could tell he wanted to scare her away. If she came back tomorrow those items were going to be shoved up her ass. There is no way I would come back if I was her. "Have you ever done that?" I asked him. "What?" "What Lance just did?" "Which part? Lance did a lot of stuff in there. Some I have done and some I've never dreamed was possible." I wasn't for sure what he had called it. "Use sounding rods." I said. "Yes I have." "Was it enjoyable?" "The first time the stretch kind of hurt, but felt good at the same time." He explained. "Have you ever done it to a woman?" I asked not jealous just curious. "Yes. She seemed to enjoy it." "Is it something we can try?" I was hopeful Jamilynn had spewed cum everywhere I wanted to cum like that. "To you or to me?" He was stern and serious. "Either...both, I guess." "Yes you can do me any time you want, but I will have to wait until after you have our child. It is not safe to do to a pregnant woman and I have vowed that I will not enter you until our bonding." I smiled and nodded. This was something we would do to each other and it looked like a lot of fun. Declan smacked my ass. Declan and I left the room we were fixing to flash out when we saw Gideon was running down the hall towards us his long black hair flowing like a cape behind him. It looked like he was ushering a small naked bloody figure under his arm. Declan and I could both see the shock in Gideon's deep dark brown eyes. "Hey wait Declan!" He called after us. Declan froze and then I noticed who was being ushered to us. "Oh my God Chava!" I screamed. She was covered in blood and dirt. Her gorgeous white long flowing hair was matted and you couldn't see a strand of white. It was all now red and brown with black streaks. My heart sank she looked dead, but was on her feet somewhat. Throughout A Thousand Years He had made this cave into his castle of old. How much time did this take I wondered? I was amazed. I knew that in the castle that this cave was made after through the double doors on the other side of the long table was a kitchen, but Gunnar is a vampire. What would he need a kitchen for? For that matter what would he need a table for? We sat at the end of the table him in his large throne at the head and he sat me on his lap. Suddenly through the doors a lower level demon came through bringing a tray filled with food and two goblets her tail swishing in the air. "Thank you, pack everything up we will be leaving soon, we're heading back to Louisiana as soon as possible." Gunnar commanded. The food was placed in front of us the demon never said a word just nodded her head and returned from where she came from. I looked at Gunnar questioningly, but the smell of the food placed in front of me stole my attention away from my thoughts. Gunnar smiled down at me with the most loving look on his face. I was hopeful, I was cautious, I was hungry OH MY! When did that happen? My stomach began to rumble and ache. I was so shocked I jumped startled that my body was making noises. Gunnar started to laugh. "Well you are hungry." He grabbed the fork and cut into the fish that laid before us and placed the bite into my mouth. Oh that was good; I closed my eyes and savored the light and delicate taste. "mmmmmmmm" It was the best thing I had ever had in my mouth. I had watched Earth for a very long time, I had watched the inhabitants for equally as long and learned things from them, how to do things, what things are called, how they behave, but I had no idea, nothing could have prepared me for the reality or the feeling of it all. I had heard people say "mmmmm" before and had a look of ecstasy on their faces, but to experience it yourself is completely different, strange, wonderful, and wondrous, I can't tell you I can't find the right words to say. It was amazing. "Is it good?" Gunnar asked smiling at me with a twinkle to his gorgeous blue eyes. "Oh yes. You really must have some." I was in awe. "I wish I could, but I wouldn't be able to taste it the way you do. Vampire remember." "Oh! I have seen vampires eat before though." I was so confused. "Really? maybe some can, I can't, but I really wish I could. I would give almost anything to be able to taste again." His melancholy was coming through in his voice. I could close my eyes and drift away just on his voice. Its tone was music to my ears. I took another bite of the amazing fish. I chewed it real good then swallowed. I grabbed one of the goblets and started to take a drink. Gunnar's hand reached up and took it from me before I could bring it to my mouth. "You don't want that one, its mine. Here this one is for you." He handed me the other goblet and I took a long drink of water. I reached up grabbed his face between my hands and laid my lips on his. I thought quietly to myself let him taste what I taste. His tongue went into my mouth and he started kissing me urgently. One of his hands fisted into my hair while the other was wrapped around my waist. "Oh Angel!" he cried into my mouth "I can taste it I can taste the fish. It has been so long." He broke off the kiss and took the fork and stabbed at a green bean, "Eat this." He commanded sticking it in my mouth. As soon as I finished chewing he grabbed my face and stuck his tongue back in my mouth. "mmmm. Yes I like that." "Me too." I shifted in his lap and stuck my tongue in his mouth. I started kissing him until I had a throb in my nether region. I shifted again where my legs were straddling him. I started rubbing myself against him to relieve some of the strain I was feeling down there. His pants became tight and I knew his dick was becoming hard. I knew how to have sex, I have seen couples have sex. "Oh Angel I don't think you want to do that." He said taking a deep breath through his teeth. "Don't call me that and yes I do, I feel a throb here." I took his hand and put it where I ached so badly. He took a deep breath in and started to rub my ache. He pushed the table clear and placed me on it. He continued rubbing me I felt a rush of fluid down there, my legs parted giving him access to heal my new wound, and I leaned back onto my elbows my arm was completely healed. His fingers rubbed and dipped into my very wet slit. My breathing got harder I could hear my blood coursing through my veins, and my heart beat faster (all things I had never had before). I wanted more and my hips start moving on their own. I couldn't help it and I didn't understand it, but it felt so good. He took his fingers out of me and wrapped his arm around my knees with his hands under my butt. He lowered his mouth to where his fingers once were. Oh! I can't tell you how amazing it felt. My fingers tangled in his hair and I began grinding myself into his face pulling him with his hair deeper. He started making grunting noises. "God you taste so good, so freakin' sweet, like honey." He growled into me "I think you're too tight to take me into you." "I need you, Steinn please." I said in Old Norse. There came a rumble from his chest up and out of his throat. I knew he wanted me I seen that by looking at the his tightening of his jeans. I start to reach for the bulge and he stopped me. "The table is for eating Abigail lie back and let me eat." He pushed me all the way down. He unbuttoned his long sleeve black silk shirt to reveal his tight six pack. His black jeans rode just low enough to show the top of his V, my favorite letter in the alphabet. He was the very definition of sexy. Just looking at him made my body clench. He lowered his mouth back down onto me and licks up and down my wet and swollen slit. "I haven't tasted anything other than traces of life in the blood in nearly a thousand years. What have you awakened in me?" He started to suck on my clit and I could feel myself rise higher and higher until suddenly I exploded all over his face. He released my clit and started spearing me with his tongue. He started licking and sucking at my hole cleaning me out of all the cum that I had just released. I couldn't help but to scream. It started again I bucked and wiggled against him. I had seen girls get oral before, I have seen the ecstasy on their faces, their eyes roll back into their heads, I had heard their screams, but I had never felt anything like this before. I never knew how good this could be, or how good this would feel. I exploded for a second time then a third and my body just went limp. Gunnar picked me up and carried me back to the bathroom, where the tub was still rolling like boiling water. He stood me beside it while he took off his open shirt and pulled his pants and underwear off. He came to me and slid his robe off of me. I felt the silk slide off of me like butter melting. Once we were both completely naked he lifted me back up and we sat in the tub together with me in his lap. My body still weak from my very first, second, and third organisms and he had just given them to me. I melted onto his chest and fell between his legs. His hard on was pressed between us. "I have questions, I have lots of questions" I finally said after the fog finally lifted from my brain. "Yeah, me too, so we'll do this like this, tit for tat, you ask one, I answer, then I'll ask you one and you answer. OK" "OK. Why isn't it colder in here?" "That's not the question I expected. That's easy we are under ground, the ice makes a great insulator. I promise we will leave here soon so you will be warm." "OK. Your turn." "Why are you so familiar to me?" He asked in one breath that sounded like he had been holding it for a while. How should I tell him? It was a strange, kind of scary, almost obsessive kind of story. "Do you remember the night of the raids on your father's kingdom?" "Yes, I fell and broke my leg. Still fought and killed 4 of the 7 vampires who raided us." "You were no more than fifteen. Just a boy, I remember, you took my breath away. Anyway you were taken captive that night. You were in pain and had been nearly drained. I held you in my arms until you fell asleep." I took a long breath I have to decide how much I should tell him. I should tell him everything let it all hang out as they say. "You were almost dead. I went to Omri and begged for your life, begged him to save you. He did, he healed you and allowed you to live as his favorite slave untouched by any other until you were 25 and you became ill. He had to turned you, scared that if you died I wouldn't follow through with our deal, but I didn't know he had turned you I didn't agree to that. You have to believe that I didn't know. I was punished for stepping in, I was only to watch and record, but I stepped in so I was punished. I went to Loki who kept my promises to Omri." "What was your promise to Omri?" He asked me still taking in all that I had said. "It's my turn now" "OK. What would you like to know?" His voice was steely "Are you angry with me?" "No, I don't.... No I'm not angry with you. Now answer the question I asked." He had to think about if he was mad at me or not. "To take his soul to heaven, when death found him and to protect him until he choose his time to go." "Your next question." "Why does this cave look so much like your father's home?" I asked. "Because I miss him, I miss them; this is my way to be close to them. What was your punishment?" "I was never to see you again, my status was lowered, and much more that I'm not allowed to go into. Why do you live out here away from everything?" He let out a small chuckle at my question. "After so long I'm bored with all it has to offer. I have contemplated the true death, but something made me want to hold on just a little while longer. To continue this way just a little longer I felt something was going to change, but I didn't know what. I think it was for you." He said pressing a quick kiss into my temple. "Why have you fallen?" "Ah! This is harder to answer. I don't know how much to tell you, I don't know how much you truly want to know." I took a deep breath. "Everything you can, I know you can't tell me everything." He answered quickly. I was surprised to find him so compliant with the fact that there were going to have to be secret between us. "The gates of Valhalla cannot be closed because there is a throne left empty. Since you are the son of one of the great Viking kings, and you proved yourself a worthy warrior before death, but your soul has not passed and you have no heir, your throne is empty." I let all my regret be heard. "I came here because I was beseeched by your father and your maker, who had heard some rumors of how we can remedy that, then the raids can stop and Valhalla can become the way it was meant to be." I finished. "Ask your next question I have more." He commanded his body now tense under me. "How does this water stay so warm?" "You never ask questions I think you're going to. Hot springs under the earth. No magic." He licked his lips and I suddenly remembered where that beautiful tongue had been and my heart sped up. "You know my father? That's not my question, but I want to know." "Yes and No, I was a watcher over one of your family members so yes I know him, but not well enough to go up to him and say 'Hey Earl hows it hang'in?'" The laugh Gunnar let out was deep and rolled out. "I couldn't imagine anyone coming to him like that. Who is raiding Valhalla, what are the rumors, and how are going to remedy the situation?" He asked quickly. Technically that is three questions, but I decided not to bring that up just answer him. His body still so tense it was hard like marble and a little uncomfortable. "Demons are. Well the angels that first followed Lucifer. They are always trying to get back into heaven and they found an in, but they have to get through the Vikings which has proven to be very difficult." I allowed my pride to show for the warriors. His body relaxes slightly. "The remedies are either you meet death and your soul goes to Valhalla where you take your throne, which you being a vampire and all makes it difficult to say the least, or your son proves himself a warrior and takes your place." "My son, I don't understand? I have no son, I am Vampire the only son I could have would be Incubi and would not have the soul to make to heaven or Valhalla." His body again tensed, he held me facing him with his hands on my shoulders. "That is where the rumor comes in, it is said that one that is dead can breed with one that never lived." I answered hoping he understood. "So you gave up heaven to save it all on a rumor?" He asked. I could either seem completely selfless or be completely honest. I wanted him to think well of me, but I didn't really know how to lie, it had never been something that angels have the capability of doing. "Yes and no. It is one of the reasons, but in my heart it's not the main one." I answered as honestly as I could. "What is the main one?" He asked, I watch his mouth which was in a thin line his jaw tight and his eyes were so intense. "You owe me three questions. I answered three of your questions." I can't tell him. I need to, but I can't now. "Why are we going to Louisiana? How many demons do you have working for you? Can we quit with the tit for tat I'm tired?" I asked I was so tired and he was asking questions I didn't want to answer yet. "I have a home in Louisiana it will be warmer for you. I have many who work for me some demons some not, and I have many more questions for you, but you should rest. Come let's get out of here the sun is about up." "Will you take your rest with me?" I asked as we walked into the bedroom. "More questions Abigail? Would you like me too?" When he looked at me my stomach quivered. "Well that's two more questions from you. Yes I would like you to lie with me, I would feel safe." "You are safe here with me Abigail. I won't let anything bad happen to you." He wrapped me in a towel. He handed me one of his t-shirts to put on. We crawled up in his huge bed and he wrapped himself around me, he was still naked. "Abigail, are you here to kill me?" "No Gunnar, I am here to prevent your death." I let him know. "Are you going to give me a son?" He asked sounding confused, or hopeful I couldn't tell. "If you'll let me." "Why would you do that? I know my father asked you to, but I don't understand what you get out of this." "For reasons I don't think I can explain." "Is it because of guilt or to make ammends?" He said flatly. "I had to fall to be here, the only part of my punishment that I am being relieved of is I get to see you, I am being punished even further now. Yes I feel guilty, but I don't because your still here." "Were you taken from me as soon as you set the deal up with Omri?" "I thought we were finished with the questions." "No, answer me. Please." "No I stayed with you until you were seventeen. Then I had to leave you." "Why?" "I really wish not to speak of this Gunnar." "Why did you save me?" "Because is the only answer I can think of." After my answer there was no more speaking. I didn't know if he heard me, in a way I hoped he didn't. For him to know what I had done all because I became selfish. Once all was quiet I soon fell asleep. The furs were soft and warm, Gunnar was hard and cool. I awoke to sounds of water running. I had to think about where I was. Ok I'm under blankets of fur there was the most unmistakable smell of Steinn.... I mean Gunnar. Oh yes I was here at his castle under the ice. I could hear him I could separate the sound of the water raining down on his delicious body from the sound of him. I couldn't figure out what he was doing, but I could hear the sound of skin pounding on skin and his soft moans. I wondered who he was in the shower with. I listened quietly trying to hear another, but anger and jealousy slammed into me all I could see was red, and my hearing failed. I couldn't stand the thought of him in the shower with someone else. I knew he didn't belong to me, but he should be mine dammit. I stormed into the bathroom and there alone in the shower he had his gorgeous dick in his hand pulling on it, going up and down the shaft at a fast pace from base to tip then down. His other hand was on his balls kneading them. His body looked as if it was covered in a shiny frost. His head back and there was a look of agony upon his face. He stopped suddenly and looked over at me shocked, embarrassed, and in need. I had that feeling again where warmth flows through me my body quivered and I was starting to ache. I took off my shirt and joined him in the open shower. "Make love to me." "I can't I haven't fed properly in a very long time, I could, I am afraid I would hurt you and that's not something I want." He answered holding my naked body close to his. I stepped back all I could think was I want him inside of me one way or another. "Plus we still have much to discuss, and 'because' isn't an answer." Well I was hoping he would let it drop, I guess not. I wasn't in the mood to talk I wanted him. I dropped down to my knees and wrapped my hands around his butt cheeks. I brought him closer to my mouth ready to devour him. "What are you doing?" I licked up his cock like a popsicle. I didn't know exactly what I was doing, but I paid attention to the charges I was left with. {What does it look like?} I sent to his mind with mine. "Where did you learn how to do this? This is not something angels should be doing." {The people of this plane have been having oral sex for almost as long as they have been having any sex and I'm not an angel.} I twirled my tongue around the head of his penis and begin to suck. I used my hands to pull him to me digging my fingers into his sexy chiseled ass. His head flung back and eyes rolled back into his skull. I started thinking to myself 'why do they call this a blow job? I'm sucking not blowing' as I was thinking to myself I missed a beat and my teeth skimmed his dick. "Owe Fuck!" He growled out. {I'm sorry.} I was so worried that he would make me stop I took my hands on his ass and cradled his balls in one hand and feeding his cock into my mouth with the other. Suddenly he stiffened. {What's wrong am I doing it wrong?} I asked him in his mind. "I'm fixing to cum move." He barked out at me. So I started sucking harder and swallowing his cock down my throat. {Damn don't you have a gag reflex?} He thought. {Angels have no need for one.} I answered. Suddenly he exploded in my mouth. I did all that I could to swallow what he shot into me, but some leaked out of my mouth and dripped onto the shower floor. 'Maybe that's why they call it a blow job, because the guy blows up.' I thought to myself. "How do you know all this slang?" he asked me sounding dismayed. "I told you many times I have been on this earth for a very long time, I had actually spent more time with the inhabitants recently than you have." I tried to explain and hide the fact that he was peeving me off. "I had breakfast prepared for you." He stood me up and we started walking out of the bathroom and into the bedroom. I found clothes in my size laying over the bed, over the chair, and on top of the dresser. I was amazed, we weren't in the bathroom that long, at least I didn't think so. Where did these all come from? "I had some of the servants pick some things up for you." He explained to me. "It must take a long time to get from here to a clothing store." "I'm sure it would, but the demons that work for me use portals it takes them where they need to go. My plan is to use the portals to take us from here to my other home in Louisiana also its how they are getting your food here." Throughout A Thousand Years "When was the last time you fed?" I asked. "I intake blood daily, but the last time I fed properly was about ten years ago I guess." I had never heard of a vampire with holding ten years from feeding. Vampires don't need to feed daily, but most weekly, some monthly, but I had never heard of one going without for a year let alone ten. "Why?" "I am old enough I don't need it as frequently as some of the newer made." He tried to explain, but I knew it there was something more. I can tell there is something he wasn't telling me, but I didn't know if I should be intrusive or if I should let it go for now. "Get dressed, there is food for you. There are things I would like to taste." He smiled at me remembering last night. I don't know if he means me or the food that he can taste off of my tongue. I hope he meant me. I flushed a little and I felt a little quiver in my womb. "We still have much to discuss. No more sex," he said looking at me with a small smirk on his face "until my questions are answered." With that one statement he dashed all my hopes. I was going to have to face the facts that he's not going to drop this. I was going to have to tell him everything, but I really didn't want to. I wished he would just.... Just what? What was it I wanted? I wanted him to love me. Why couldn't he just be in love with me and forget everything else? I had very little time to do this in. "Where do you want me to start?" I asked him. "Why not start at the beginning?" He said shortly. "In the beginning God created the earth....." he didn't let me finish. "Great a sarcastic fallen angel, just what every vampire needs. It must be something with the fallen every fallen I know is a smart ass." "I was with you when your mother died. That was my first night I seen you. I was to record the very short life of your brother." I stopped there to let that sink in before I continued "Once my job was finished, your brother had passed and so had your mother, I was looking around the castle admiring the carvings and artwork that was all around. I heard a small cry a little whimper so I went to find where it was coming from and found you behind your father's throne." I took a deep breath I didn't really need. "You were so small, scared, and cold. I don't know why I, for the first time ever, had a need to interfere. I wrapped you in one of the furs from your mother's throne, held you close, and began rocking you until you went to sleep. Your father burst into the throne room so I quickly lied you back down and left. Through the years I peaked in on you. I don't know why I just felt the need to be close to you. The night of the raids I was with one of the maids she was in labor and I knew the baby wasn't going to make it, but I didn't know why. More infants died than what lived back then. I was just thankful I was in the same village as you and I thought once I was done I could find you." I had to stop. How terrible he must think I am for not caring about the mother and child? He continued to get dressed and listened to every word I said. I finished putting a pair of pants on, the first pants I have ever worn. I would really like to put more thought into that, maybe savor the fact that I for the first time in my existence am putting pants on, but I don't have time I am nowhere near even the middle of our story. I walked over to the other side of the bed and grabbed a dark green sweater, it looked fuzzy and warm. "Volney came through the door and killed all that was there. Including the mother and child it happened so quickly I barely had time to react. My thoughts went directly to you all I knew was that I had to get to you. I didn't know what I would do once I got to you, but I couldn't be away from you. So I ran panicked. I found you dragging your broken leg with a sword in one hand and a battle axe in the other. You were so beautiful even blood drenched. Isom had you feeding from you. Still you killed him. I knew if Volney found you he would kill you. You were too weak to fight him off. I took you to Omri." "Why Omri?" "Because Omri was already contemplating the end and he wasn't wanting to continue the life he was living as a raiding vampire, he refused to raid your father's castle, but he was there. I could read his thoughts. I knew he was worried for his soul, and he was tired of life. So I knew I could strike a deal easily. I stayed with you, but out of sight and I didn't accept any new assignments. I knew that I would be called to council soon enough for my punishment in interfering with your life. I mean your death. I don't know why so please don't ask all I know is that I had to, I felt it in my heart, I couldn't let you go. My heart couldn't take it. I begged my friend Loki to protect you." Tears started falling down my face. I wiped them away with the heal of my palm. He walked over to me and wrapped his arms around me. He smelled so good I wrapped my arms around him until he broke away from me. I grabbed the pair of fuzzy boots and put them over my feet. He came around to me and started drying my hair with his towel. It felt so good to be so close to him to be taken care of by him. I could pretend that he loves me. I could pretend that everything worked out just the way I wanted them to. I could pretend that everything was perfect, but he quit all too soon. I felt so deflated. "As I told you I had it set up with Omri and Loki that you would be protected and I would accept my punishment with grace. It worked until you were about twenty. That's when Volney... hurt you." While it was happening he had sent me images and feelings of everything that was happening to him. I reached over and grabbed his hand and suddenly I was back to that day. ******************************************************************************************************************** 976 an island off of Northern Ireland Volney walked into the tent where Gunnar and the slaves slept. Volney was not a huge being maybe 5'9, Gunnar was taller much taller. Volney wasn't even as broad as Gunnar, but Volney was a vampire and his physical strength was incredible. His sandy blonde hair hung wet off his head and his grey eyes bore holes into everyone he looked at. He knew Gunnar was there. Gunnar quickly jumped up standing on his feet from his bed. He knew something bad was going to happen. Volney never came into the slaves tents and Gunnar knew to stay away from him. Just like then I could feel everything that was going on. I could hear his thoughts in my head as if they were my own. "You've had it much too easy around here boy. Omri don't use you, won't allow anyone else to use you. He treats you like a son, but refuses to turn you." Volney pounced pinning Gunnar. "He has left you weak. I am hungry boy, and your blood is calling to me. So is your sweet little ass." Volney growled into Gunnar's ear. I could smell his breath and feel his it cool on my neck I know that is what Gunnar was feeling and not myself, but it was hard to remember that at the time. Before Gunnar had time to grab a weapon Volney punched him in the stomach knocking the breath out of him. Gunnar went to his knees gasping for breath, his vision started to fail, and he worked hard to hold on to consciousness, but failed. When he woke his pants was off and he was face down. With something cool and heavy crushing him. "There you are boy, I wouldn't enter you till you could be present. I promise boy you won't enjoy this, but I will, very much so." Volney laughed. Gunnar noticed that Volney was naked and his hairless cock was rubbing in between his butt cheeks. Gunnar froze fearful of what was coming next. He tried not to panic. He tried to think quickly of a way to get out of this. There had to be a way to quite literally save his own ass. Volney spit on his dick a couple of times rubbing it all over until it had a shine to it. He then spread Gunnar's cheeks apart and placed his dick right at the tight little hole. Volney smiled and teased the hole by putting pressure, but not entering. He laughed knowing that this was torture. He finally reared back and slammed into Gunnar. The pain was immense and he screamed out. After being slammed into maybe ten times he finally passed out. When he came to he found Volney was still pumping into him grunting and his own blood was dripping from his ass, down his legs, and pooling onto the floor. The pain radiated from his ass to his back and around to his stomach. He became nauseated and vomited Volney pushed his face into the vomit. I could feel the bile rise in my throat and the pain made my knees feel weak. Gunnar started feeling around his surrounding until he felt something metal and sharp. He grabbed it with every ounce of strength left in his body he swung the sharp object into Volney's throat slashing it. Blood sprayed from Volney's throat covering them both. Omri came running into the tent with an unknown man. Gunnar was weak and destroyed. "Stop her I will take care of this." Omri said quietly to the new man. "She's going to go mad." The man said back to Omri then disappeared. "I'm so sorry I couldn't get here in time. I didn't know. Beryl just told us what was going on we came as soon as we could." Omri pled. His cocoa colored skin smooth and pulled tight over his massive muscles. His green eyes filled with sorrow, empathy, and even fear. He bent down and picked up the limp body of Volney with one hand which now was oozing blood instead of spraying it. He handed the body off to some of the slaves and told them "Silver him to the tree and tell Ottilia to feed him. I want him to heal before I kill him." "He's not dead?" Gunnar asked weakly and devastated. "Close. He still has his head and his heart, those are the best ways to kill a vampire, but sun and fire work equally as well." Omri whispered cradling Gunnar's abused body in his arms. "Who was that with you?" Talking about the tall slender black headed man with wild eyes the color of the Baltic sea. "Don't worry about him." Omri "I need to see what damage has been done. I'm so sorry son." With that Omri laid Gunnar back onto his stomach and inspected the stretched out hole that was still bleeding. Omri seen the amount of blood that had pooled on the floor and knew some serious damage was done. "I am going to have to heal you and to do that I am going to have to use my blood to heal those tears. Do you understand?" Omri said with sorrow and regret coming out in every word. Gunnar stiffened. He knew that somehow Omri was going to get his blood into Gunnar's ripped and torn ass and that was going to hurt it was embarrassing enough that Omri had to see him like this, but now Omri was going to have to touch him like that where he was hurting. Suddenly there was a scream of fury and pain. It sounded like a woman's scream. Omri quickly positioned Gunnar's face so that they were staring eye to eye. Omri's soft green eyes turned red and started to swirl a little. "Go to sleep son, when you wake up everything will be OK." "Who is screaming?" "Son let's not worry about her. I will deal with her. You go to sleep all will be better when you wake." "But I know that voice." Gunnar's eyes became very heavy and he started drifting off. Omri grabbed his knife out of his belt and cut the tip of his middle finder off. Blood was spraying out of the new wound. He quickly stuck his finger in the wounded boys behind and let his blood spray into the wounds caused by the rape. He felt his finger heal and he took it out and wiped it on the ground. He wrapped Gunnar up the same he would a child. "You bastard!" The woman's scream turned into a screech. Omri stood up and walked out of the tent. "Get out of here! You can't be here! I will take care of this, but you can't be here." Omri yelled. ************************************************** Present day Gunnar snatched his hand away from me and we were back in his home in the ice cave. He was staring at me like I had physically hurt him. He started rubbing his hand where mine had been never breaking eye contact. "That was you?" Gunnar asked as we walked out of the bedroom towards the kitchen area. "Yes the screaming woman was me. I was not allowed in your tent because I was not allowed to see you. The rules stated that clearly. Omri had plans to make Volney suffer, but I didn't allow it. I tore him into shreds. Loki took responsibility, but I was still punished just not as much as I should've been. Thanks to Loki." I explained. "Do I hear my name being said?" a voice came from the dining area. Gunnar tensed up and readied himself for battle. Once we made our way into the dining are Gunnar could see the same slender dark haired man that was with Omri that fateful night. Now the slender man was sitting at the head of table dressed in tight black skinny jeans, a tight long sleeve white ruffled shirt, a black leather opened vest, and three belts hung loosely around his hips in hot pink with silver metal studs. His boots half way laced and untied kicked up on the table. "Loki you're here!" I ran to him and wrapped my arms around him. "What are you doing here?" "Well I just have to fill you in on what's going on upstairs. The Heavens are all a buzz with word of you and our dear Steinn. You go by Gunnar now, right? Wow! and speaking of guns, baby you have a set there." Loki said grabbing Gunnar's large biceps. Gunnar said nothing, but didn't look amused. I couldn't help, but to smile. This was typical Loki. "You have gotten bigger since I last seen you." "When was the last time you seen me?" Gunnar asked still stiff as stone. "Once you were turned my job was done." Loki answered in a sing song kind of way and flickering his wrist. "Ok so what do you have to tell us?" I asked trying to end the conversation that the guys might get into. I sat down next to Gunnar on the bench seat. There was a large plate of fresh fruits and an omelet with spinach and cheese. It all looked so good. I took a big bite of the omelet it almost melted in my mouth. "Well, first downstairs is going crazy. There are lots of plans, from lots of demons to try and stop you two from actually..... Completing your goal shall we say." Loki loves gossip. "Oh Gunnar you have to taste this." I moaned and reached over to grab his face he bent down and allowed me to stick my tongue in his mouth. Loki's eyebrows shot up and a smile crosses his face. "That is good. What is that flavor though?" Puzzlement came across Gunnar's face. I continued to eat the amazing food in front of me. talking to my best friend. I gave Gunnar another taste and bent down to take another bite, but he stopped me holding my wrist. He looked bewildered and confused. "Angelica root?" He suddenly looked like he had seen a ghost. "Don't take another bite Abigail." He bent down and smelled my plate inhaling deeply. "Isn't angelica root poisonous to angels?" He asked looking at Loki. His eyes were wide and panicked. "Put your fingers down your throat and gag yourself. Make yourself throw up." Loki commanded. "It won't work she don't have a gag reflex." "Lucky you, that must be fun." Loki smiled his most wicked grin. Gunnar gave him a tortured expression and then rolled his eyes. "Are you feeling Ok?" Gunnar asked me. "I feel fine, maybe a little tired." My answer slurred. "Call Magdalena Cyr, get her over here NOW!" Gunnar was screaming even though I'm not sure who he was talking too. He quickly picked me up and carried me towards his room. I started feeling more woozy and was enjoying the close contact. He put me on his giant bed and started wrapping me in furs. I didn't actually feel cold, but I couldn't help shivering. Soon a very tall, thin, black woman appeared before me. "I heard de rumors dar chile, but I no tinking dey be real." She said in the most beautiful accent. I smiled and lifted my hand towards her face. I just wanted to touch her wrinkly face dark chocolatey face. "You dar Gunnar leave till I done here and take dat trickster wit choo." Gunnar just looked over at her without moving a muscle. "Choo called me cuz I know what I a doin. I be goin to taken gewd care of her. Choo know choo can truss me." Gunnar touched my face, kissed the top of her head and walked away Loki pulling him out. "I remember you." I said reaching for the elderly woman. "In Barbados." Everything was quickly becoming foggy I wondered if this is what being drunk felt like "So mi wah see lighters inna di ai...Weh ya she, mi waa see lighta" I sang. The old woman gasped and stopped what she was doing for a moment "Oh Rashida give me your pain I will take it away." I reached for the old woman's hands and drifted to sleep. "Tell me why she is being attacked." Gunnar asked in a small voice. "I don't think you understand the validity of what is at stake here." Loki thought for a moment and decided to go ahead and give him the information he needed. "Fallen angels and demons have found a possible hole to be able to get into Heaven. Something Lucifer has been looking for since he fell." "Why now my throne has been empty for a thousand years?" "Ah good question, it wasn't until you were turned that it was truly empty. Then your maker took your throne, but as the rules states he could not keep your seat because he is not of Viking decent. Once he was removed from your seat the fighting began which wasn't a big deal because you know us Norsemen we love a good fight, but it is constant and forces after these past three hundred years are beginning to weaken. It was your father who actually thought about contacting Abigail." "Why not attack me, I could choose the true death?" Loki busted up laughing like that statement was the funniest thing he had ever heard. "So you think you could make it to Heaven, to Valhalla? You have done nothing of worth in many a year. You've hidden here in your cave for the last fifty years and surround yourself with demons. Oh yes dear Steinn, you are exactly what we are looking for. Plus you imbecile how can you give up a chance to be with her?" "I don't understand what you mean." "Because you're an imbecile. She gave up not only heaven, but her whole family just to be with you." "I am still not understanding explain to me why, how, what." Gunnar confused couldn't find the words. "OK I don't know how much she told you, but I'll give you the 411 boyfriend. It all went wrong for her when you were just a little boy and she kept checking on you. Big no no, but no real harm being done, until the night of the raids. You were supposed to be killed, but she interfered. That got her a big time out. It was bad enough that God turned her away and refused to allow her to look upon him or you. Then when she destroyed Volney big bloody mess, her punishment just got worse. Not that anyone actually cared she destroyed a murdering rapist, but that is not what The Grigori were made to do and she shredded him. It was gruesome." Loki paused trying to hold down his anger. It really wasn't this vampire's fault. If she hadn't been stalking him and just done her job none of this would really be an issue. "We both got punished for that." "If I chose death what would I have to do to be allowed in Valhalla and what would happen with Abigail?" Gunnar asked. "The typical, you would have to do a completely unselfish good deed and other than being heartbroken nothing would happen with Abigail. She already made her decision, she will never be allowed back into the kingdom of Heaven. She is now one of the fallen." "Why would she do this?" The seriousness finally hit Gunnar and he was completely confused, and concerned about how she was doing. "No one should haf to esplain dat." Magdalena's voice came closer to where Gunnar was pacing.
