Nick returned home about an hour later, feeling 100% better after a large meal consisting of a fresh young girl and her boyfriend. As he walked through the quiet rooms, he realized how the stillness of the house disturbed him. He quickly ran up the stairs and entered Monica's room. He turned on the lights and walked over to the side of her bed. She laid there with her head resting on pillows that were soaking wet with tear drops. He stared inquisitively at her bag, packed up, on the floor and the area around her eyes that was all red and puffy. Sitting on the side of the bed next to her, he pushed a stray lock of hair away from her face and gently touched her tear strained face.
Nick- "Monica...... Come on, baby. Wake up." Monica stirred slightly and then slowly opened up her eyes. She came face to face with him and immediately pushed his hand away from her face. She sat up and turned to him just in time to see the shocked look on his face.
Monica- "Don't ever touch me again!" She screamed as she got off the bed and grabbed her bag. Nick followed her out of her room, reading her thoughts as quickly as he possibly could. Finally coming to the answer to his question about her outburst, he grabbed her arm as she was about to go down the stairs.
Nick- "It's not what it sounds like. You have everything all wrong." She jerked his arm away.
Monica- "I think I figured things out pretty well. You were just using me as a quick fling until you and your precious queen go through whatever this uprising is. What's the plan for tonight Nick? After I leave are you gonna go out and find some other girl to make your companion until she finds out the truth too?"
Nick- "That's not how I look at you Monica. I look at you as the most wonderful person I have ever met before in my mortal and immortal life. You give me things that I could never depend on Akasha to give me."
Monica- "Yeah right. What could I possibly give you that The Queen couldn't?" Her eyes were flashing with anger.
Nick- "You really want to know?"
Monica- "Make it fast, I want to get out of here." Nick grabbed her arm and lead her into his bedroom. He sat her down on the edge of his bed as he too sat and spoke to her.
Nick- "You let me make contact with you. Not only mentally but physically. You let me know you in all ways. Akasha is very cold about making that kind of connection. You give me the feelings and affection that I have been longing for ever since I was made into a vampire. Yes, it's true that Akasha can give me more power and reign that I could ever dream of. But there are no feelings behind it, and I can't live with just power and control. I want to be able to both give and receive love from someone. And I want more then anything right now for that someone to be you."
Monica was speechless. His words were not only wonderful, but they were said in the truest form of sincerity that she had ever heard before. Even though she had a million questions, it didn't seem to matter at this point. All that mattered was the fact that she believed he really wanted to be with her.
Nick- "Yes, I want to be with you in every way possible." They both laughed. She found it almost scary the way she could loose herself in his gaze so quickly, and how quickly she had become so attached to him. As he took her hands in his and kissed her palms, all she could think about was being in his arms again, and feeling his strong body under her hands. She wanted to show him how much she wanted to be with him in every way as well.
Nick- "Just so you know, I'm not gonna try and stop you from acting on these feelings." Monica giggled a little.
Monica- "I have to learn to control my thinking when I'm around you." Nick smiled at her.
Nick- "Why? I like the way you think."
Monica- "Oh really." She said as she got up and came around so she was standing in front of him. She got down on her knee's, parted his legs with her hands and let her body come in between them.
Nick- "But I have a feeling that I'll like what your doing a lot better."
Monica- "I think you will." She said as she buried her lips in the crook of his neck, sucking lightly on his skin. Nick let out a soft moan of pleasure as his arms encircled her and rubbed up and down her back. Monica was determined not to let one part of his body go without being kissed, so she wasted no time in getting his shirt and undershirt off. Needing to feel her just as much, Monica allowed him to remove her tank top and unhook her bra.
Nick- "Lie down." He did as he was told. Monica came up on top of him, surprisingly straddleing his chest.
Nick- "Baby, what are- ." Monica put her finger to his lips to keep him from saying anything more.
Monica- "Don't ask questions. Just enjoy yourself." Monica then took one of his hands in her's and lifted it up to her lips. She kissed each finger and then worked her way down the entire length of his arm, running her tongue all over his smooth white flesh. As she gave the same attention to the other arm, Nick reached up and took one of her breast in his hand, giving it a light squeeze. Monica sighed as she finished with his arms and worked her way to his shoulders lightly kissing every inch of his collar bone. After a few moments, she found her way to his chest. Nick sucked in a deep breath as he felt her tongue caress over his nipples. He buried his hands in her hair as she continued to work her way down. As soon as she reached his stomach, she knelt down on the floor again between his legs and unzipped his jeans. She pulled them off, along with his sneakers, socks and boxers. This time she started at his feet and worked her way upward to his ever hardening cock. Nick moaned in pleasure as she nibbled at the tip.
Nick- "Please, don't tease me like this." Monica exceeded to his request and took his whole length into her mouth. Nick arched his back as she deep throated him and continued to suck as hard as she could. He didn't want his release to come in her mouth, so he grabbed the back of her head and brought her face back up to his.
Nick- "Now you know I can't hog all the fun out of this."
Monica- "So, what do you intend on doing to me, my dark angel." He didn't answer her. Instead, he sat up, taking her with him and stood her up on the floor in front of him. He pulled her close enough so that he could undo the button on her shorts and pull that and her panties off.
Nick- "Now, come here." Monica smiled at him as she climbed back on him and straddled his hips. Nick ran his hand all the way down the front side of her, starting at her neck and coming to rest on her waist line. He turned his attention to her breast and took one of her nipples into his mouth. As his tongue played with the hardened peak, his hand slipped between her legs and rubbed against her clit. Monica snapped her back and let out a cry as one of his fingers entered her. Nick gave the same attention to her other nipple as he inserted another finger into her. Monica used one hand to grip his should and the other to hold his head down, giving him the signal that she never wanted him to stop.
Monica- "Nick, I'm gonna cum." She said in ragged breaths. Nick took his hands and lips away from her body.
Monica- "What? Oh god, please don't do this now." She said, desperate to feel him inside her. Nick pulled back the covers on his bed and laid Monica down. He was gentle as he laid his weight on top of her and pulled the blankets up over them.
Monica- "I want you inside me. Right now."
Nick- "I know." He leaned down and pressed his lips to hers, at the same time pinning her arms down to the bed. Monica cried out against his kiss when he entered her. Nick took a breath as he felt her silky walls around his length.
Monica- "Don't wait. Go deeper. I want all of you in me." Nick did as she asked and started a slow yet gentle rhythm in and out her body.
Nick- "God baby, you feel so good and tight." He said as he kissed her neck. Monica felt her release getting close. She gripped Nick's shoulders and cried out in both pain and pleasure as she climaxed. Upon feeling her walls tighten around him, Nick gritted his teeth as his own climax came, and his warm juices spilled out inside her. Nick rolled over onto his back and brought Monica's body along with him. Nick held her tightly in his arms as they regained their composure. Monica rested her head on his chest as she felt her breathing return to normal. A slight wave of exhaustion came over them. Nick leaned over and kissed her forehead, as she snuggled closer to him and feel into a dreamless sleep. Nick soon followed, while holding her against him as tightly as he could.
Later that night, Nick awoke because of an unexspected surge of hunger running through him. He looked down at Monica who was still in his arms fast asleep. She looked so peaceful that he didn't have the heart to wake her. Instead, he reached over to the night table and picked up the canister that Akasha had brought for him.
"Do you think it will work?" Marius asked Akasha as she walked back from a walk around the lake.
Akasha- "It should. But if for some reason it doesn't, is my backup plan ready?"
Marius- "They are waiting for you downstairs, my queen." She and Marius disappeared into the shrine below the earth.
