A Mate for Lazarus(24)

His heart actually sank like a kite on a windless fucking day. The thought of her not being able to take his cock was less disappointing than the thought of her not being able to carry his child.

“The good news is that a vagina can seriously stretch. It will be tight but I’m sure it would be possible. I mean if we ever actually did the dirty that is.”

His dick twitched at the thought of her pussy stretching around him. She gripped his base with her small hand. Her fingers were cool and gentle. His dick twitched again, harder this time. “Ooooh, I can’t wait to suck on this bad boy.” Her other hand gripped his balls and he groaned softly. Then she lowered herself to him while holding eye contact and took his entire head into her mouth on a light suction.

He all out roared and gripped the edge of the sofa to keep from grabbing her head. He pushed his ass deeper into the seat to keep from thrusting up. He wanted to turn her over and fuck her. He wanted it more than he’d wanted anything ever before.

Her head bobbed up and down as she moved on his dick, keeping that same suction. Her one hand moved up and down on the base of his shaft while the other massaged his balls.

Motherfuck!

It was different than sex. He would prefer to be inside her, but this came close to feeling as good. He just knew it. Her mouth was hot and wet. Even the odd scrape of her blunt teeth felt fucking good. She continued to massage and pump him slowly but eased off his head and licked his rim before lapping at the tip, treating his dick like the most delicious candy she had ever tasted. Her breasts swayed beneath the material of her tank. He was glad that he couldn’t see them. He wanted to enjoy this. Wanted to fucking savor it.

He could feel sweat drip down his brow. He groaned as she sucked on him again, this time taking him deeper into her mouth. Up and down, in and out. Sweet torture.

He gripped his thighs, having to work to stay still. His balls were pulling tight. He could feel the coil inside him. Could feel how every part of him was preparing for release. He grunted as she lowered back down, sucking him harder.

His phone rang. His pocket went nuts. It was a tune he knew all too fucking well.

Alex released him with a pop.

Lazarus groaned. “I need to get this,” a guttural growl.

Alex nodded. She stayed on her knees in front of him. She kept her hands on him. Pre-cum accumulated on his tip. It wouldn’t have taken too much more.

“My lord,” Lazarus growled. The kings had fucked up timing. That was for sure.

“Gideon’s female has been kidnapped.” Zane growled back at him.

Lazarus sat up in the sofa. “Jenna,” he growled.

“Oh…so you knew about this?”

“Sort of.”

“Never fucking mind. It’s not important right now. Her asshole ex has her. He’s demanding two million for her release. I need you to head up the team that takes this fucker down.” Lazarus could hear that his king was pissed. “I want you to select six other elite members…” Zane rattled off coordinates, expecting Lazarus to be there on a ridiculous time frame.

“Consider it done.” He growled before ending the call.

Alex released him and moved away. “You need to go.”

Lazarus nodded. “There has been an…incident.”

“Involving Jenna?” She looked concerned.

“Yeah. There was no time to explain. She’s in danger and I need to go.” He leapt up, tearing his clothes off as he headed for the bedroom. It took all of three minutes to dress and strap his weapons to his body.

When he returned to the living room, Alex was back in her jeans and sneakers. She turned to face him as he walked into the room. “Stay here. I’ll be back later,” Lazarus said as he strode towards her.

She shook her head.

“I don’t mind.” He would love to come back to this female, to find her here in his space.

“I will go and find Sarah. I need to shower and change. I’m a mess.”

“You’re beautiful.” He tilted her chin up and kissed her softly on her swollen mouth. It reminded him of where her lips had been minutes ago and his dick hardened up all over again. Not right now. He broke the kiss. “Sit tight. I’ll organize an escort.” He turned to leave.

“Lazarus.”

He turned back. “Yeah?” She kissed him. It was quick but oh so fucking good.

“Goodbye,” she whispered.

Lazarus grinned. “You’re catching on.”

The last thing he felt like doing was leaving but he needed to be a part of the team that saved Jenna. Her ex was going to wish that he had never been born. If that bastard so much as touched a hair on her head, Lazarus would make it his personal mission to ensure that he suffered before he was permitted to die.

“Good luck!” She yelled after him as he left. Her heart raced. It seemed as if she was scared for him. “Oh and be careful…please.” She was fucking scared.

His heart swelled in his chest. “I’ll be fine.” He closed the door and headed down the hallway. Despite the adrenaline and the angst over what had happened to Jenna, he felt alive inside. He felt like the luckiest male in the whole world.





Chapter 11




No! No! No!

This wasn’t happening. She wasn’t about to throw her whole career, her whole life away for some guy. Just because he was seriously hot and knew how to use his hands…okay and his mouth…okay and maybe he had a mammoth dick, but that did not mean that she was going to lose her mind over him.

That’s what it felt like right now. Like she was losing her mind. Alex paced back and forth, she was still in his apartment. Still waiting for a guard to escort her out.

She normally didn’t have sex with a guy until she was sure that she had feelings for him. Until she was falling for him. Although they hadn’t had all out sex, oral was close enough. If she was honest with herself, she had come very close to having sex with him on both occasions. In fact, if Lazarus hadn’t been called away they probably would’ve ended up having full blown, scream the walls down sex.

Alex not only wanted to walk in her father’s footsteps, she wanted to forge her own path as well. She wanted recognition and to be able to stand up tall in her own right and not just because she was the famous Peter Stone’s daughter. She remembered being a little girl and looking up at him with stars in her eyes. Her only regret was that he wouldn’t be here to see her hit the big time.

She refused to allow Lazarus to stand in her way. She didn’t want regrets.

It wasn’t like she and every other red-blooded journalist in America hadn’t tried the legit route in order to get an interview. She was a Sweetwater local and everything but no, the vampires didn’t give interviews or press releases. Lazarus had also made it clear that it was never going to happen. The kings would rather be lambasted with speculation and half-truths than have their story told.

She sighed. She didn’t want to go behind Lazarus’ back. It would feel too much like selling a piece of her soul. “Oh god,” she said to the empty room, running a hand through her hair. The thought of hurting him was unbearable. The thought of never realizing her dream was just as unbearable.

What the hell was she going to do?

The guy was sweet and sexy and badass. The best combination. He also had this insecure side as well, which was crazy considering how unbelievably sexy he was. It was endearing.

There was a knock at the door. “Yes.” She said, walking towards the door.

“Can I come in?” A gruff male voice.

“Yes, you can.”

It was the same guy that had driven the car with Allison yesterday. “Hi,” he said as he stuck his head around the jam. “My name is Titan.”

“Hi…again.”

“I’m here to escort you to the human accommodations.” He was really good looking. Then again, they all were. He was also really big. Almost as big as Lazarus. Almost. She had to suppress a sigh. She was at it again. Comparing every guy she met to Lazarus.

It had to stop.

“After you.” Titan held the door open for her. She noticed that he remained in the hall, for the most part, keeping his hands behind his back.

“Thanks.”

It sucked that she didn’t want this thing with Lazarus to stop. She really didn’t want to pretend date him anymore. Alex wanted to date him for real. She had this tightening in her chest.

“Is everything okay?” Titan glanced down at her. He was frowning deeply.

“Yeah, I’m fine.” Like hell. She was really worried about Lazarus. Something had definitely happened to Jenna. Lazarus had been called to help her. An incident, he’d said. “Is Lazarus going to be okay?”

Titan’s frown actually deepened. “I’m not permitted to talk about it. Know that vampires are tough. Lazarus is just about the toughest son of a bitch I know. I’m sure he’s going to be just fine.”

It didn’t make her feel any better, if anything, the tightening in her chest only increased.

“You are afraid for him?” Titan asked.

She sighed. “I guess I am.”

They walked into the hotel lobby. “Thanks so much.”

“Any time.” Titan nodded and began to walk away.

“When will Lazarus get back?”

“I have no idea.” He said, scratching his head.

“Come on. Give me something…please?”
