here for breakfast one time. It’s the best in the city.”

She took a long pull from the straw of her drink and then wiped the red dribble from the corner of her mouth. “So I’ve heard.”

“I get it,” I said, poking another sausage with my fork. “You’re one of those chicks who doesn’t like to eat in front of guys. It’s okay, though. I’ll get you to eat.”

I could see the frustration storming in her eyes before she plastered on a fake smile. “I guess it’s something like that.”

Hah! I had frustrated her. I would get to her somehow. Talking about food got under her skin, I noted. Let’s see what else would make a vampire squirm.

After swallowing down the bite of sausage, I rubbed my neck, concentrating on putting my fingers over my jugular. “Man, my neck bands have been killing me. I think it’s the strain of the guitar strap. I need a serious massage.”

I grinned in triumph as her eyes zoned in on my neck. They seemed to glaze over, the telltale silver vampire glint taking over her irises.

She caught me staring at her and cleared her throat. Her eyes quickly reverted to their light-brown color. “Yeah, better find a masseuse. I know quite a few here in town if you need one.”

“I do. Can you text me some names?” I asked, licking my lips before pulling my phone out.

I smirked as she watched the action with my tongue a little too closely. Even if she was human and not a vampire, I would have been turned on at the desire coloring her eyes. She wanted me, I could tell. Just as much as I fucking wanted her. I could tell she was rocking some serious curves under those clothes. Tits. Ass. Hips. I wanted all of it.

Once I was done with my meal, the server came over and delivered the bill. I paid it and then grabbed her hand once more as I led her out of there.

I ground my pelvis into her as I kissed her hard and passionate against the door of her SUV. I’d wanted to bring her back to my place again and fuck her hard but slow until she screamed out my name several times. But…she’d insisted she go home, which was no surprise. It was almost three a.m. and the sun would start coming up in a couple of hours and she couldn’t risk getting stuck at my place until the sun once again sank below the mountains.

“When can I see you again?” I asked breathlessly.

She gazed deep into my eyes and replied, “Text me anytime. I work nights, but other than that, I’m free.”

I grinned. “Good, I definitely want to see you again. You’re sexy as hell and very easy to get along with. Where have you been my whole life?”

It wasn’t a rhetorical question. Like seriously… how come I’m just now finding out about vampires? If I’d have known sooner, I wouldn’t have led my sister into the dark, deserted night without some kind of training or protection against these fucking freaks.

If vampires could blush, she would have. She smiled coyly and swiped some hair behind her ear. “I’ve been right here.”

“Well, you certainly have escaped my radar for the past few years.”

“Yeah, I like to lay low,” she replied breathlessly.

Despite the fact that I was just trying to use her for information, I leaned down and pressed my lips to hers anyway. When she flung her arm around my neck and pushed her soft, curvy body into mine, I couldn’t help the groan that escaped my mouth into hers. I kissed her harder as I wrapped one arm around her waist and used the other to grab her hair at the back of her head. I pulled gently to slightly ease her head back. I trailed kisses down her jaw, neck, and to her collarbone. She tasted sweet and smelled even sweeter.

A vampire’s seduction, I supposed. I didn’t care. She had me harder than a rock and all I wanted now was to bring her home and worship her body.

I felt her nails graze the back of my neck and then travel into my hair, where she lightly scratched at my scalp. That aroused me even more. I wanted her so badly at this point it hurt.

My mouth found hers again, and when our tongues intermingled, I pulled her even closer. The feel of her nipples poking through her shirt to stab me in the chest almost
