Addison’s fear started to melt away, until finally she was so caught up in making love, she forgot she was with a vampire.
Christian was an amazing lover, and as soon as he entered her, she couldn’t catch her breath, a chain of quick, choked gasps escaping her parted lips. She was so entranced, she’d rather lie under him gasping for air, than pull away and miss a second of this intimacy.
As he finished inside her, he lunged forward and went for her neck. His fangs sank into her delicate skin, the pleasure of the dual act giving him an extreme high. Addison opened her mouth to scream, but all that passed her lips was a high-pitched sigh.
After a few moments, he pulled away from her, a playful look on his face. Her blood was dripping from his mouth, his face filled with a very satisfied expression. Then, he quickly began kissing her, making her squirm under him.
Addison could taste her own blood as Christian’s tongue pushed deeper into her mouth, forcing her to swallow it. He heard her gagging, but his kisses remained strong. He hadn’t killed her with his bite, and the act of sharing blood with her seemed to turn him on.
Pulling away, Christian licked his lips as he looked down at her, "I have never tasted anything as sweet as you."
Looking up at him with a slightly awkward expression, Addison’s tongue cleaned the blood from her lips. "Re—" Trying to catch her breath so she could speak, a small smile crept onto her lips, "Real- ly ?"
"Oh yes." Stroking the side of her head, Christian’s hands ran over her soft curls. His expression was loving and gentle, his actions toward her now much different than they had been in the limo. "Such sweetness is meant to be savored by only the most sophisticated of pallets."
"Am I…" She wrapped her arms around his chest, gazing into his eyes like a needy child. "…a…scavenger now?"
"Yes…but I do not wish to discuss such things now." Christian kissed her forehead before moving off her. He then lay down behind her, taking her up in his arms and letting his chin rest in the crook of her neck. "For now, let me enjoy you." Pulling his head away from her, he rested it on his pillow instead, still holding Addison in his warm embrace.

Walking into the apartment she shared with her sister, Addison was still tingling with delight from her night with Christian. She had woken up next to him, feeling so wonderful and perfect it was like she was dreaming. His prince-like charms made her swoon, and she immediately found herself love struck. She had spent the entire day with him. Going home was hard.
After taking a shower and getting back into her normal routine, the fantasy created by being with Christian was slowly wearing off and reality was setting in. Frowning as she looked into the mirror, she examined the wound on her neck. Up until now, she had almost forgotten about the fact that Christian was a vampire, and that he had just made her a scavenger with his bite. Now that she wasn’t blinded by the charms of the suave Master vampire, Addison could think more rationally.
She had no idea what he wanted with her and wished she had paid more attention to Carl’s ramblings on the ways of the vampire. Carl did that a lot, rubbing in the fact that he was important enough to become a servant of the Master while everyone else were just mere humans.
Addison did know only Christian could create new vampires, not even his elites had the power to do that. Usually the scavengers, like Carl, were either mistakes where a victim was left alive, or were just to expand Christian’s family.
Inspecting the wound with an over-exaggerated pout on her face, Addison studied it like a hickey she was trying to hide before her mother saw it. In her case, her mother was her sister, Kelly.
Her wet hair dripped down her shoulders, some skin still covered in small water droplets. She could feel a slight hunger lingering in her chest—a different kind than she was used to. She
