A light, harmonious laugh rang through the headphones. It was like wind chimes tinkling in a night breeze. The sound of the vampire’s pleasure seeped into his bones and stirred something deep within him. He would cherish her laugh and replay the memory repeatedly when he was alone.
He thought about the way she’d feel beneath his hands. About her body beneath his, pressed against a mattress. About the way she’d taste. About the sounds she’d make as he made her his in every way.
“Fuck, you taste divine,” he murmured, a baritone rasp edging his voice. “Like the night and shadows and everything I’ve been missing in my life.” He kissed her other shoulder. She shivered beneath his touch. “I’ve been dreaming about this,” he whispered. “The way you feel, your smell, your taste. All of it.”
“That’s it, sweetheart,” he said encouragingly, nibbling on her ear. “Let me take care of you.”
They would be partners in every single way. Not just in marriage but also in life. She was the other half that would complete him. His soul recognized hers.
“I’m eager to speak with you.” The words slipped off his tongue before he could even think about them. “It
doesn’t matter what we’re talking about because hearing your voice is like listening to my favorite music. I could do it all day long. Like an enchantress, you enthralled me with your voice.”
When this was over, he would be with her when he woke and come home to her after a long day. He would find refuge in her arms after inevitable hardships. She would rest her head in his bed at night. He could see it all now. Even the most mundane tasks, like walking the dog, would be more pleasurable with her.
“To say that I enjoy your company, sweetheart, would be a vast underestimation of how much I look forward to hearing your voice and spending time with you. I do not enjoy it because that is too simple of a word. Rather, I am quickly finding that I am desperate for your company. For you. I thought I proved that yesterday.”
