"Lizzie."
James stopped my roaming hands and quickly twisted me around so he was standing behind me.
I lean toward the thin side of the scale so he had both of my skinny wrists held together in one of his large hands. His other arm wrapped loosely around m
(more)y shoulders and for a brief second I allowed myself to lean back and relax against him.
At times like this, when it's just me and James and nobody else around, it's easy for me to block out the rest of the world and pretend everything is normal.
No hiding from daylight, no weird dietary concerns, no-one kidnapping our loved ones, nobody trying to kill us... damn this whole vampire thing was a lot harder than I thought it would be.
"I told you it wasn't gonna be easy hon," James spoke into my ear sending a shiver down my spine I did my best to ignore.
When I realized I spoke out-loud, I tried to wiggle out of his arms but James just tightened his grip and pulled me closer against his chest.
Once again I was glad I didn't have a heartbeat to give me away because it would be racing right about now.
My senses had heightened significantly since James turned me, the low rumble of his voice in my ear combined with the smell of him was about to make me melt.
This was bad. Really bad.
Trying to distract him with sex was backfiring,he was getting all kinds of nice and concerned which was the last thing I needed if I didn't want to start blubbering like a baby.
Why couldn't he just shut up and fuck me so I could stop thinking?
When his arm clenched tight around me I realized I said that out-loud too.(less)
