pictures flickering through my mind I felt feelings that could only be Dimitri’s.

I sucked harder on Dimitri’s wrist, drawing even more blood down my throat, I greedily gulped it down. The light pull on my neck continued as Dimitri’s grip on my arm tightened even more.

The feelings I was feeling now - Dimitri’s feelings - were overwhelming. I felt pure power course through my vains, power and leadership.

Just before I passed out I realised I was in the arms of the Vampire King.

Chapter 3

As I sluggishly became conscious I found it difficult to open my eyes. Instead I lay still on my bed taking inventory on how I felt. Dimitri really had tucked me into bed, I could feel the stiffness of my jeans against my thighs and the bareness of my shoulders, so I knew that he had been gentlemanly enough not to try and make me any more comfortable than necessary.

I continued my inventory on my body with my eyes still shut tight. I moved my legs slightly and felt strength course through my muscles. Normally when I woke up I had to stretch and flex my muscles for a good minute before I could even attempt sitting up straight. But I knew that if I attempted to move right now I could run a mile without breaking a sweat. My mouth was completely dry though and I could feel the coppery taste of Dimitri’s blood lingering on my tongue. As I licked my dry lips I realised that I wouldn’t mind drinking some more of his sweet blood, not letting myself think to much more about his blood I attempted opening my eyes again. They slowly opened only to shut tight again. The evening light that was coming through my window stung my sensitive eyes.

Don’t worry about the light, your eyes will become accustomed to it in a couple of minutes. This time turn away from your window before opening your eyes.

The sound of Dimitri’s voice in my mind was like an intimate whisper of a caress. When he had told me last night that we would be able to communicate telepathically I had thought it would hurt like a headache at first or I would feel violated of my privacy. But all that I felt was content and glad that I was not alone in my head as I woke up to experience new and strange abilities that I now had.

I had only thought of sitting up and facing the dark corner of my bedroom and suddenly that was exactly what I had done, I blinked my eyes open and was relieved to find that I could keep them open.

Thanks, I sent the thought out to him, I don’t know how I knew how to, but it seemed to just come naturally as though he was sitting right next to me and we were having this conversation out loud instead of in our heads. but why did the light affect my eyes so much?

That would because of the night vision you now have, but from now on your eyes should be fine.

Good. I thought. I stood up and walked out of my bedroom and into my kitchen. Grabbing a bottle out of the fridge I lent against the kitchen counter, looking into space as I chugged down the water I sent out another thought to Dimitri. where are you right now?

In bed, it is still light out, therefore I am confined to the thick walls of my windowless bedroom.

Suddenly I could sense his pressence in a dark room, I could smell pine wood and other scents that were all male. I smiled as I realised that I was smelling Dimitri’s scent. I could feel the satin sheets that he was lying on as though I was lying on them as well. Then I realised what Dimitri had said.

Oh! I didn’t even think about asking about the no sunlight thing. So you can only come out at night? Huh! That can’t be fun, not being able to move freely during the day. Especially for a King. I added the last bit with a little bit more emphasis.

His mental laugh was just as musical as his vocal one. Ah Ashes, I see you got more images from my life than I thought you would have done.

You weren’t going to tell me? I asked him incredulously.

I would have done today - well you would have found out anyway when you move in tonight. I suppose that is just one less thing we have to talk about now.

So when does the sun set?

In half an hour, I will come to you then - and I will send for my men once I arrive.

So what happens tonight? Do I get to settle into my new home or are you going to start our training tonight?

Which would you prefer?

I would rather we started our training straight away. The sooner we get started the sooner I can be out on the streets actually working. I think I…….

My train of thought trailed off as my gaze slid to the kitchen window. I could see straight into the apartment next door and apparently they could see me as well. I yelped and dove for the floor and uselessly wrapped my arms around my chest in an attempt to cover my lace clad breasts.

Dimitri’s laughter rang through my head.

It’s not funny! Those two guys were starring at me like I was something to eat - maybe they are vampires as well…

No they are not, I would have known last night if there were any vampires living near you and besides it’s still day time. They were probably just admiring your body. He calmly told me, I could feel him shrugging his shoulder, causing the sheet beneath him to crinkle, as though it was no big deal. well it isn’t a big deal, I mean they are never going to see you again, so you don’t need to be embarrassed do you Ashes? he told me after clearly having listened to my thoughts. Then something he said clicked.

What did you call me? I asked him.

What do you mean?

Just now. What did you call me?

Ashes?

Why did you call me that Dimitri?

I don’t really know why. All I know is that while I drank your blood last night I saw images of you and one of them was of you talking to your brother Kevin. He called you Ashes and suddenly even more of your memories came flooding into my head as though that name was a key to your very soul. Ashes just seems to be your true name.

I slumped my shoulders and let the tears silently roll down my cheeks as I thought of my brother, I hadn’t let myself think too much about him since I moved to Canada but now that I did I realised I missed him nearly as much as I missed Jaz. The only difference was that my pain from missing Kevin was self inflicted and I could go and see him whenever I wanted to.

I could still feel Dimitri in my head silently waiting for me finish having my moment.

I will always be present in your head Ashes, as will you be always in my head. But we will both have to build a mental wall each to protect our minds. It will mean that if we want to talk telepathically all we will have to do is knock on each others mental walls, then we can lower our shield and talk - I’ll explain it better as I teach you how to do it later on. If we don’t do this then our minds will be over worked and there will be a danger that you will start to literally lose your mind.

I silently nodded my head, knowing that he would be able to both sense the nod and read my understanding in my thoughts. I shook myself slightly to stop my self pitying thoughts from consuming me and crawled from my kitchen into the hallway. Again I felt Dimitri’s laughter as he sensed what I was doing. I couldn’t help but laugh with him.

Hey, I wasn’t going to flash those guys again, they got more than enough of a peep show! I laughed.

I felt Dimitri sit up in bed, the sheets pooling around his waist. you could have made a run for it, with your new speed all they would have seen was a blur, which they would not have paid any attention to.

I felt Dimitri speed across his bedroom only to stop in front of a huge wardrobe. When he opened it he chuckled at my mental gasp of shock. The dude owned more clothes than I did, there was probably more clothes in his walk in wardrobe than there were clothes in a department store.

You really love your clothes don’t you? Are you sure your not gay?

Not this century. he told me. right now I have plenty of females to keep me company. he added in a tone that was meant to imply that he was getting more than enough female attention - sexually.

What do you mean? I asked him in confusion.

I am almost two thousand years old, he told me. Sex gets boring if you do the same thing over and over again. There is nothing I haven’t tried out before. Including men. Sometimes it is easier to have a relationship with a man than a women. There is less drama.

Your almost two thousand years old? I mentally gasped. I thought you told me you weren’t an old man! I mentally laughed.

I don’t look old do I? Therefore I do not think of myself as an old man. Right now you are not thinking of me as an old man are you. You think I look handsome and physically fit, that is defiantly not the definition of an old man.

I mentally shrugged my shoulders as I walked into my bathroom and turned on the shower. True. So if you have tried everything then have you ever had sex with a human before? I asked as I stripped out of my jeans and slipped off my bra and panties before stepping under the hot spray of the shower.

I had a feeling that if we were having this conversation face to face then Dimitri would have cleared his throat and looked anywhere but at me. This made me smile.

No. I have never been with a human, it would be too dangerous, fatal even to a human felmale…

Or a male. I added for him

His dark chuckle rang through my head.

Yes, or a male.

I had a feeling that he had been about to say something else but stopped the thought before I could hear it, I did get the tail end of the thought though, so I knew it was something about me. I shrugged it off.

Dimitri had chosen a dark pair
