BLOOD LEGACIES

DACE

~

All I want is her, I don’t fucking care about what my mom told me... about taking time alone to rest, as long as Emma’s here I will heal faster, that is what I choose to believe, I was more than pleased when I saw her at the door, she thought she would leave me be to rest but we both knew that was not gonna happen. By my side is where she belongs.

I slept peacefully, and her wonderful scent filling my nose is exactly what I need, it is the best medicine and I won’t trade it for anything else. She had no idea how scared I was when we got separated that night, the fright that filled me when I realized I can’t sniff her scent anymore, it was weird because Emma’s scent was always the first thing I pick up before anything else, it was strange she was suddenly odorless, I have been thinking about it since but I just blamed the silver for messing with my brain.

My damn wound can’t let me function properly, Emma was an irresistible sight for me, and yet I can’t enjoy it because of the damn pain, it would heal but slowly until the silver burns out, it weakens us but that doesn’t mean it kills us, I was lucky I came out of this with a scratch at my lower abdomen because it was my first time fighting a Manticore, I mean I have only heard about those beasts in books and tales from my dad. Facing a creature lost to time was something I had not anticipated and the reason I was scared for Emma’s safety.

I was glad it was all over now, she was not hurt. She’s okay and right here with me and I want nothing more than that, and she wants to take care of me, how can I say no? Just watching her in that lacy white nightdress stopping just before her knees was like a thorn to my desires. It made me see her developing shape. My Female is a petite creature, structured like a doll with the curve in the right places, perfectly made for me. How can anyone not desire her? Just me!

I lingered, I didn’t take my eyes off her as she watched me in the shower, she was really gonna bathe me, oh I can’t wait. But I viewed it as impossible though because her cheeks were flushed and I noticed she was nervous, but my baby girl surprised me when she filled her palm with shampoo and started washing my hair. Lord the heavenly feeling of her soft delicate hand rubbing my hair was to kill for.

I relaxed, and I allowed my senses to wander as I held her tightly, it felt so damn good and it was impossible to get a clear head, I can’t wait for her to wash the rest of my body, that will be it... the moment I will lose control and take her against the wall, she was leaving me with no choice and my beast was about to spring free the moment her hand touches my skin.

But then I was forced to flick my eyes open, I no longer felt the water dropping on my body, that was odd, but I was merely stunned when I saw what ensued.

"Emma?"

"Hmm?" She was lost and focused on washing my hair with her eyes closed but she had to see this because I knew this was her doing.
