Chapter Five
2088 Words
I don't fully even know myself why I brought her back to mine. To talk more privately? To f**k her senseless? My intention would be the first... The result, probably the latter. I was attracted to her, she was clearly attracted to me. It was beyond wrong, but why fight what we both clearly want. Even if we don't sleep together again, we can still be friends, still be in each other lives, right?
We walked into my bedroom and she instantly ran over and jumped down on the sofa, on her knees.
It made me smile. She seemed so innocent.
"What you smiling at?" She questioned when she noticed my grin. Shaking my head, I walked over to join her. "Nah, come on, what's so funny?"
"Nothing, honest. Just... You looked cute." I noticed her expression change slightly, she's shy. If she was human, I'm sure her cheeks would be red. "So, we do need to have a serious talk though," nodding, she sighed.
"Yeah, I know." Falling back against the sofa, her eyes retreated downwards.
"What do you actually know about Me?"
"Umm... Not much really. I mean, when I asked my mum and dad about you, mum sort of... Got a bit defensive and left and dad just said you were his brother. That was pretty much it." I listened, Rose is clearly still pissed at me then. "He told me not to mention you again." The last part was a whisper.
"Oh, I see"
"What happened?" The question caught me off guard. "I mean, something clearly happened between you and my parents."
"Just old family business" I didn't want to talk about it, and hoping she picked up on that, I'm guessing she did because she suddenly frowned. "Sorry. It's just, it's painful to think about... For everyone."
"But.." Pausing, she quickly shook her head. "Never mind."
Silence filled the room. I didn't know what to say, and clearly, what she wanted to talk about, I didn't. Letting out a loud sigh, I gave in, but only slightly.
"You can ask 3 questions but on one condition."
"What!?" Wow, eager much?
"Whatever I tell you, you can never tell your parents that you know any of this."
"I promise!" She yelled quickly, sticking out her baby finger. I looked at her blankly. "Pinky promise." Raising my eyebrows, I couldn't fight the smile that broke out across my face. God, she was so cute. How was she a Vampire? Hooking my finger in hers, she let out a small giggle.
"Ask away." I mentally prepared myself for the no doubt hurtful memories that I was about to reminisce over.
"Well, what happened between you and my mum?" Wow, no tiptoeing around it delicately.
"What makes you think that something happened between us?" It was an odd way of asking the question.
"Mum Hates you. So something clearly happened." I bit my lip. I was in two minds about telling her. I didn't want to tell her about the horrible things I did, but I also didn't want to tell her things about her parents she might not know... But I 'pinky promised'.
"Before your mum and dad were together, we were. She was my girlfriend." Her eyes widened in surprise. "But, I wasn't the best boyfriend I hurt her and she found comfort with Kane instead of me," I admitted.
"So... She cheated on you with your own brother!?" She seemed very angry. I just nodded. "Go on.."
"I found out and forgave her, but she did it again.. Even if she didn't, she was already pregnant with you so-"
"Wait! I'm the result of an affair?!" Her anger suddenly turned into pain. Oh s**t, maybe I shouldn't have said that, but I was just trying to be honest.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to upset you." I put my hand on her shoulder and squeezed it slightly. "Raven?"
"Just continue"
"I kept your mum away in a room for her own good and safety and we did become friends... And more again, but when she had you, she had to leave, and went to another house." I left out some bits that might upset her and knowing that she had whatever going on with Chris, I left out the fact he was her mums master too.
"Did she take me with her?" I'm counting that as another question. I shook my head. "Where was I?"
"Here.. With me."
"You?"
"You stayed here, with me, under my care until your mum was turned and came back."
"That's weird! You looked after me when I was a baby?!" She shook and moved away slightly.
"Yeah, because me being your Uncle isn't weird enough!" Without saying anything, she just huffed and headed for the door. "Wait, I'm sorry." Stopping, she turned.
"I shouldn't be here." Her voice was barely audible.
"Look, Raven, I shouldn't have said that. I really am sorry." Shaking her head, she came back over to me. Staring up at me with her big eyes.
"No, I mean, I shouldn't be here. I shouldn't even exist".
"Don't say that". Cupping her cheek, she rested her face against my hand.
"Its true though. I shouldn't. How can you even stand to be around me? I'm a product of my mum's unfaithfulness and your brother's betrayal. You should hate me". I could see tears forming in her eyes.
"No..no please don't get upset. I'm sorry. I shouldn't have said anything.. I could never hate you."
I wrapped my arms around her and cuddled her tight. I knew I shouldn't have told her anything! She sobbed quietly in my arms as I held her close. I could feel her tears lightly damping my shirt, but I didn't care.
"Please, don't be sad, personally, I'm glad they cheated.. You wouldn't be here otherwise." She looked up at me, I stared deep into her beautiful, watery eyes.
Leaning down slightly, I pressed my lips against hers. Instantly, she wrapped her arms around my shoulders and kissed me back, deep and passionately. It felt so right.
Slowly leading her over to the bed, I didn't know if this is what she really wanted. I needed to know, pulling away only slightly, I pressed my forehead against hers.
"Is this what you really want?" The way we connect, it's so easy to forget that we were related.
"You are what I want." She moaned back softly. Hearing that, I placed my lips back on hers and held her, as tight as I possibly could.
Pushing her down on to her back on the bed, she repositioned herself more comfortably. I couldn't help but stare at her for a minute. She was so perfect!
"What?" I could tell she was going shy again.
"You're beautiful." Letting out a happy squeal, she turned and buried her face in the pillow, to hide. It just made me chuckle as I climbed into the bed with her, and crawled up. Turning to face me again, she instantly wrapped her arms around my neck, holding me to her.
"You're the beautiful one, Alex." She was wrong. I wasn't. Not in the slightest.
Placing my lips on hers once again, I silenced her and my own negative thoughts. I wanted to enjoy my time with her.
Slowly, my hands worked there way down her body to her legs. She was wearing a dress today, that only added to her innocent looks, and started running the tips of my fingers up and down her soft exposed skin.
I felt her shiver under my touch, as my hands crept closer and closer towards her underwear. But just as I hooked my thumb through the band of her panties, I heard her gasp. Looking up, I noticed she wasn't looking at me. Following her gaze, I saw Chris stood there, in the doorway.
"Sorry, your servant let me in, I didn't you had company," he told me, his eyes flicking between Raven and me. He didn't seem to be annoyed or upset, in fact, he looked like he didn't care at all.
"What are you doing here?" Ray questioned. I begged silently Chris wouldn't say anything incriminating about our night together and luckily, he didn't.
"I was just coming to talk to Alex. I'll come back later." And with that, he was gone. Looking back at her, she just stared confused.
"How do you know him?"
"We're just friends". I told get simply. "Now, where were we?" She seemed hesitant to continue at first, but soon, she relaxed and got back in the mood.
I laid her back down after removing both of our clothes. Taking a moment to look at her naked body, I couldn't help but notice how absolutely perfect she was.
Lifting her legs to wrap around my waist, I lowered myself down and pressed my body against hers. My lips found their way to her neck and I instantly started assaulting it with kisses. I was rewarded with soft moans as she arched her back and pushed her body against mine more.
"Alex." She was already breathless.
She fell on the bed next to Me and sighed, tired.
"Well, that was a lovely work out" she giggled as she turned on her sighed and cuddled up to me. I, myself, was exhausted too.
"What time is it?" She asked casually. I sat up slightly and checked my phone. It was nearly 2 am. Groaning, she began to get up.
"Where are you going?" I didn't want her to leave yet. I was really enjoying her company.
"I need to get home. Mum and dad prefer me to be in before 3." I didn't hide my disappointment. "Random, but are you going to Grandma Reta's for dinner tomorrow? The whole family is going to be there." I raised an eyebrow. Surely that would just be awkward.
"Probably not."
"Oh." This time, she was the one disappointed. I didn't want to see her sad. Sighing, I shook my head.
"I'll speak to my mum. See what I can do. OK?" She smiled. Maybe that's why my mum has been calling recently. Grabbing her by the waist, I pulled her back down onto the bed, letting out a loud shriek, she fell on top of me. "Are you really sure you have to leave me?" I asked. Placing kisses up and down her neck.
"Yes, sorry."
"Really, really sure?" This time, I pushed my hand into her underwear and forced two fingers deep into her p***y as I continued to kiss and suck her skin.
"Mmmm... You're such a bad influence!" She moaned. Giving up, she threw the rest of her clothes onto the floor and wrapped her arms around me. I pulled my fingers out before reinserting them again.
"You love it." She didn't reply. Instead, she just grabbed my chin and pulled my face down, crashing my lips to hers.
I paced back and forth, back and forth, picking up the phone and putting it down again.
"Come on, stop being a p***y!"
Telling myself that is one thing, doing it is another. I was trying to build up the willpower to pick up the phone and talk to someone I despised... Someone who ruined my family... But I was doing it for someone special.
Without trying to talk myself out if it longer, I grabbed the phone and dialled my mother's number quickly. It rang for a few seconds before someone answered.
"Hello?" I couldn't speak. "Hello, who is it?"
"Hello, mother. It Alexander."
"Alexander?! How have you been dear?"
"Fine, I was just wondering what you wanted, you've been calling?" I couldn't say I knew about the dinner because then she might question how I knew. Yeah, how would I explain that one?
"Oh, sad news I'm afraid. Young Drew has passed. I know you two drifted apart but I thought you'd still like to know".
I was speechless. I didn't know what to say. My ex-husband was dead. How? Why? When? Was that the only reason she was calling? My heart sunk a little.
"Had he already been buried?"
"No.. Alexander, why don't you come home for dinner this evening? Your brothers are coming also, it would be nice to have the whole family here."
"I don't know mother.." Of course, I was going to say yes but I didn't wanna seem eager.
"Oh, come, please." Sighing slightly dramatically and smiling to myself, I agreed and hung up.
Tonight is going to be interesting...
