My boots echoed on the stone steps. I hadn’t been down here since the day Dav had captured me, but I remembered everything about it, even the cell I’d been chained in. I wasn’t sure why Dav wanted to do this down here, but I had an idea. I inhaled the scent of his excitement and lust. My whole body responded, my cock hardening and throbbing. Gods, the scent of his desire was a powerful aphrodisiac.

When I turned the first corner of the steps a soft flickering glow greeted me. Candles. I smiled. Who knew? My man was a closet romantic.

The closer I got, the stronger the scent of desire became. By the time I stepped through the open gate of the cell, I was shaking—my stomach cramping and my fangs long and ready.

My footsteps stumbled at the sight that greeted me.

“Gods above…” I whispered hoarsely, my erection jumping and nearly punching a hole through my combats.

Dav lifted his head, his fangs long, his eyes burning red and his cock hard and ready. The chains securing him to the wall were an exact replica of how I’d been chained that first day. His whole body tensed at my approach making the chains rattle.

“You’re giving up control—to me?” My voice shook.

“Only for you.”

His growled agreement set my blood on fire. I cupped his jaw with my hand, dragging my gaze over the chains and locks. “Who did this to you?” Jealousy squeezed my heart. Who’d seen him like this? Vulnerable and gloriously naked.

He smirked, remaining silent.

“Hm, I see.” I smirked right back, sliding my hand down his body, brushing his cock lightly with my fingers. His hips punched forward, his groan music to my ears.

“Who, Dav?” My whisper was sultry, but I hated that it had probably been Vito.

“Oh...gods...Eli!”

I ran a finger over his slit and scooped up a bit of precum. Sucking it into my mouth, I smiled. “Tell me, Dav, or I’ll not let you come. I’ll drink your blood…but not let you mate with…”

I was lying through my teeth, but his reaction was more than worth it. Before I’d even finished speaking he blurted out, “The Count!”

I frowned. “But he was at the club when you left…”

Dav cocked his head and held my gaze. “Was he? He’s old Elliot; dematerialising is easy for him.”

“Right.” But I wasn’t interested anymore. They’d been together for hundreds of years. They would have seen each other naked plenty. I leaned forward and dragged my nose up his neck, inhaling deeply. “You smell of…need. Do you want me, Davlov Zoltar?” I pulled back until we were nose to nose, and I was staring deeply into his hungry gaze.

“More than anything in this world.” His voice shook.

I fisted my hands, needing to touch him, but wanting to make him crazy with desire. “Forever?”

“Yes, yes, forever. You’remine.” His growl was possessive, his breath coming in pants.

“Good, because you’re mine, too, and I won’t share you.”

“Never. Now claim me. You have control over this, Elliot. Don’t make me wait.”

I smirked at his demand. “Oh, I’m definitely claiming you. But I think I’ll have some fun first.” I dropped to my knees before him and took his length in my fist, gripping until he was engorged and throbbing in my hold. I leant forward, my mouth almost touching his glorious cock, but not quite. I licked his tip with my tongue.

“Fuck, Elliot. Please!” Dav hissed, punching his hips forward towards my mouth.

I looked up at him. “Who’s in control?”

“Ah, shit, you are.” He panted heavily.

“That’s right, baby. Now relax and enjoy.” I twirled my tongue around his crown, enjoying his taste and the deep moans he made, but I wanted more. I glanced at his face, revelling at the raw pleasure I saw before I swallowed his length, working him with my hands and mouth, sucking and twisting until he was crying out. I explored his body with my other hand, cupping his balls, then sliding my hand back further as I sucked one, then the other into my mouth—before pulling away.

His chest heaved, a snarl exposing his fangs. His eyes were hungry and frantic as I stood and stepped back. Holding his gaze, I slowly undressed. I wanted to tease him, but my body had other ideas. Just as I stepped out of my combats, a cramp hit my belly and my own fangs punched down further. I leaned forward, my own breathing fast and erratic. I clamped my jaw. My control was slipping…

“Elliot?” Dav’s voice pulled me from the pain.
