The white sheer dress needed to go. She reached down and tried to find how she could remove it. She was moments from ripping the damn thing off Tomesha until her hands brushed Dru’s away.
“Here,” Tomesha whispered. She stepped back and opened the dress to reveal her shapely form. The material was forgotten as it slipped down her arms and fluttered to the floor.
Dru’s hands trembled as she took in the very naked Tomesha.
She didn’t know this human, but suddenly she needed to know everything there was about her. Who was she? Where did she come from? How many vampires had the pleasure to taste what was between her brown thighs, and who was she going to have to kill for touching this woman?
Dru dragged air into her lungs and stepped forward.
“Please. Let me help you remove your clothing.” Tomesha came back to her and reached for the top button of Dru’s shirt.
She quickly opened it and pushed it down Dru’s arms. The human was fast. Each weapon was removed and carefully placed on the nightstand until Dru was now just as naked as she was. Tomesha smiled and guided Dru backward until the bed met the backs of her legs.
“I’m here to please you.”
Dru snagged her arm and tugged her forward.
“And who pleases you?” Dru asked. She wasn’t sure if she truly wanted to know the answer. The woman was a paid whore. It didn’t take much to realize how she’d be making her money if she wasn’t allowed to be a donor.
A confused look appeared momentarily in the human’s eyes then disappeared.
“Don’t worry about me.” Tomesha smiled and ran her hands up Dru’s arms. Her brown-eyed gaze traveled over Dru’s toned body. She lifted her gaze back to Dru. “I’m here for you?—”
Dru cut off whatever Tomesha was about to say. She captured her lips with hers in another deep kiss. This one harder and hungrier. She spun them around until Tomesha was against the bed. They tumbled down on the mattress with Dru landing on top. She stared down into her eyes.
“Then allow me to please you,” Dru said.
Tomesha’s lips parted, but Dru placed a single finger to them to silence her. It didn’t matter to Dru what this woman did for a living. She’d never judge someone for trying to survive. All that Dru knew was she wanted to see Tomesha’s face as she took her pleasure, as she reached her climax. The burning need to know she could please this human grew in her chest.
Tomesha hesitated for a moment before nodding.
“Good, miere. Now lie back and let me explore all there is to you.”
Tomesha didn’t know what it was about this vampire, from the way her icy-blue eyes had watched her when Callidora had presented her, to the way the woman had put herself in front of her when Valentina had stormed over.
The general lowered her head and took her lips hungrily. Their mouths fused together in a slow, deep kiss that left Tomesha trembling. She wrapped her arms around Dru and gave in to her. She’d never had this reaction before. She enjoyed the company of all of her clients, but there was something different about the general—Dru.
Strong hands slipped over her skin and cupped her breasts. Dru lifted her head; her bright-blue eyes appeared to see into Tomesha’s soul.
“Your skin is so soft,” Dru whispered.
She bathed one of Tomesha’s nipples with her tongue. Tomesha groaned at the feel of it sliding over her. The general trailed her tongue up the full mound, coming back to suckle the taut bud into her mouth. Tomesha threaded her fingers into the deep auburn hair, displacing the bun from the top of her head. She arched her back as the woman tugged on her. She gasped and held on tight. Dru nipped her with her sharp fangs.
Tomesha’s core clenched from the hint of pain. Would it hurt when Dru sank those same fangs into her flesh? Would she go for Tomesha’s neck first? Or her wrist? Or her inner thigh? Tomesha’s heart rate increased with the thought of Dru drinking from her.
Her blood was needed.
She’d be this woman’s nourishment tonight.
What she had to offer was lifesaving. Something the woman needed to survive. Tomesha gasped when Dru released her breast. Her warm breath skated over her skin; she moved to Tomesha’s other breast. She repeated her actions with her tongue, suckling this nipple deep within her mouth. Dru’s hand traveled down her torso and came to rest on her thighs.
Tomesha parted her legs. She wanted to feel her fingers dive between her slick folds. Dru took the invitation and guided her hand between Tomesha’s thighs. Her strong hands pushed Tomesha’s thighs even farther apart.
“The scent of you is addicting,” Dru murmured.
Her lips brushed Tomesha’s sensitive skin. She trailed hot kisses down her abdomen. Tomesha kept her eyes on the powerful vampire who came eye level with her center. A growl rippled from Dru. The sound did something to Tomesha. Her core clenched, and her juices slipped from her. It wasn’t the first time she’d heard a vampire growl during their intimate moments, but there was something about the way it vibrated Dru’s body that sent an electric current through Tomesha. Dru buried her face between Tomesha’s legs. Her nose ghosted over Tomesha’s swollen bundle of nerves while she breathed in her scent.
It was one of the most erotic sights Tomesha had ever seen. Dru’s eyes flicked to hers and held her gaze.
