CHAPTER 5

Cole watched with anger as the bloody orb of the sun sunk beneath the horizon, low already because of the season.

He knew not where Rachel was, but was convinced that the ones who had her had consumed her blood. They were daywalkers now. Not for long, no. But, they had lead time that he and Zach did not enjoy. Cole swore softly, beating his fist into his open palm.

Zach swung his face to Cole's. “They have partaken of Holly's blood,” he said, seething. His face was a mask of rage and Cole clapped him on his back.

“They are Reapers, Zach. With Alexander gone, they will hold to the regime.”

Zach looked at Cole. “That is what worries me. The
rogue
hold to one mate for one vampire. Your kiss practices multi-partner matings.”

Cole sighed. “It has been the way of it for many years. However,” he pegged Zach with his intense stare, “in this case, there can only be two mates to the exclusion of all others. She will consummate with two. The key is to reach the Druids before they have executed this.”

“Do they not wish to abide by the ritual?”

Cole's face took on a grim look. “That is the way. But, in the presence of pure Druids, for the length of journey back to our coven...” Cole spread his hands wide. “They would have to master a level of self-restraint that may be impossible. Think back on the challenge of it with the women when they were with us. Even with all the running, we still wanted them.”

Zach thought about tiny Holly. A body made to fuck his. His hands shook with the need to bury himself inside her. In all her virginal splendor. Untried, but for him.
Soon
, he promised himself. Somehow he held out hope that the Reapers would leave her as she be, that only her blood would be consumed to bind and aide them in their travel back to their home coven.

But there was no guarantee.

They readied themselves for pursuit.

Yet again.

Holly and I clung together as we entered a boisterously loud and filthy tavern with one of the Reapers. The patrons yelled at each other, swinging full and frosted mugs of ale around to punctuate the points of their conversation. Holly looked shell-shocked but I knew she hadn't been subjected to the Reapers brand of illicit entertainment while she dozed. Oh-no. They intuited that she might be damaged from such treatment.

Or so I hoped.

I was not so sure that I hadn't been. I shook it off, looking for a server in the dim corners of the establishment. No one.

I was literally starving to death, remembering my conversation with Josiah.

“You will eat, if we have to force feed you. You have given blood and will now need to replenish it with human sustenance.”

No shit,
I thought uncharitably.

So here I was, with Holly the nineteen-year old who needed babysitting, tagging along. I was grumping because of the gnawing in my body and the uneasy sexual union that had been breached. And of course, my personal favorite, the future of being their prize breeding stock.

No pressure.

The Reaper, whose name was Elias, indicated for us to sit down in the booth. I slid in and turned immediately to look out the grimy window, all four corners shadowed with the nicotine of years of smoking but allowed no longer. Only the filth remained to tell the history.

I looked away from the blackness of the night revealed outside. I was so tired my body ached and Holly's head lay against my shoulder, her hand in mine.

A waitress approached the table, chewing the cud of her gum like a cow. The corner of Elias' mouth turned up. I could almost hear what he was thinking. The Reapers were such an amusing group. Not.

He greeted her and turned to us. “The women are quite hungry. What do you recommend off your extensive menu?”

I almost laughed. Those Reapers, they sounded so natural. I did a mental eye-roll.

The “extensive menu” was a greasy fingerprint-coated paper with five items. Loved the sense of humor on these guys.

“I'll have a burger and fries,” I said quietly, keeping my amusement out of ordering.

Elias looked at Holly. “Make that two,” she said, the fear barely contained. She hadn't warmed up to the Reapers. After my story of the dream sharing, she wasn't feelin' it.

I heard that.

The waitress turned to me with eyes that were glassy. “Ya want cheese with that, miss?”

“Yes, thank you.”

Elias looked at me for a long moment. “It is not what you think, you know.”

I thought it was everything I was speculating and more but didn't respond.

Taking my silence as encouragement he continued, “We will not force you. You will choose two Reapers.” His eyes slid to Holly and his glance encompassed her as well.

She shivered beside me.

Our food came and we ate like robots. I shoveled about half the meal before becoming too stuffed. A lot of that was probably just lack of eating. I bet my stomach was the size of a walnut.

I looked at Holly, who I was sure was about one hundred pounds. She shook her head, pushing her half finished food into the center of the table.

Elias cocked his brow. “It is not good? I was told this was the best greasy spoon in the area.”

I barked out a laugh. What he said sounded so contrived. I didn't think the vampires got out much. Holly turned and smiled at me. She got it.

He looked confused and I relieved him of that, “You guys need to work on blending in. Ya know, verbally. Nobody on the damn planet says 'greasy spoon' anymore.” He scowled at me and I smiled back sweetly. I did a mental tally on my side. Whatever gave me a little advantage with the group pleased the hell outta me.

He threw cash on the table in a semi-huff and we walked outside.

I wouldn't have been so cavalier had I know what was going to greet me when we returned to the place that the Reapers had broken into.

*

Holly and I watched in shocked horror as four Reapers screwed human women, in various stages of fangs latched onto veins.

Holly had to turn away into my shoulder and I hissed at Elias, “Oh yeah, this is really warming us up to your cause.”

He returned fire in a low voice, “We have needs, Druid. Unless you wish to provide those needs, both sexual and in blood payment, I suggest you let us have our way with them. Besides,” he looked at the carnal orgy in front of him, “they enjoy our attentions immeasurably.”

Rachel watched as the four Reapers rutted above women, spread and moaning. One shrieked as she came while a Reaper bit her, her rapture at the intensity of her orgasm as he drilled her from above was obvious to even the least astute observer.

“They're raping them,” Holly moaned. Elias turned to her, lifting her chin with a finger. “No, little one, they are being pleasured by vampire. They will give their lifeblood to us so that we may live another day.”

Holly jerked her face away from Elias and he turned away from her, shrugged out of his jacket. He moved with an almost predatory glide toward a woman who lay on the floor under thrall, her eyes locking on his as he moved toward her.

“Spread your legs, human.”

I watched as she did it, her heels almost horizontal to her body. He tore off her panties and said as a command, “You are aroused, wet for the taking. You cannot wait to have my cock inside you.”

The woman writhed on the floor, her hips rising slightly, her pussy folds glistening with moisture and open to receive his cock. Elias opened the fly on his black leather pants and a cock as thick as my wrist filled his hand.

He slid it into the woman, her hips pushing aggressively against his entry. She shouted at the violent thrust. I watched as his ass muscles clenched and loosened as he plowed every bit of his meat into her waiting hole. None too gentle, he was giving her his entire length and she was taking it, her legs shaking... then she came, trembling all around him and he sped to vampire speed, his tight ass a blur as he plunged into her waiting cunt.

I looked around at the others, noticing some of the vamps had moved on to the women's asses. The pussies so completely used, they'd taken a new hole for their pleasure. Putting fingers into the pussies full of cum, scooping some out, they put fingers into the tight asses of the women. All of them with their hips high and their faces planted on the floor. Begging to be fucked in the ass.

The orgy unfolded all around me. The vampires worked in unison, plugging the waiting asses of the women, they had used their cum like lubricant and were pumping away on the women's tight rose buds. As I watched, one Reaper gave a light swat to one of the women, his prick buried in her bud to the root and she moaned, shoving her hips backward against him for a deeper lock on his flesh.

He grabbed her hair and jerked her head back, looking at me while he did her, bucking into her so hard her breasts smacked against each other making a fleshy sound of their own.

I met Andrew's eyes and knew he was thinking of the dream where he'd ridden my pussy as he was riding this human woman's ass.

I turned on my heel and took Holly with me, we escaped to another room.

Anywhere not to see the vampires latched like snakes on women that would be whores for them under their compulsion.

I was disgusted by them.

I was also aroused. Having had a taste of what a vampire could make my body feel as he buried his tool of flesh inside of me. I clenched my eyes, keeping my thoughts trained on Cole.

Please come quickly
, I pleaded silently. Before I become a slut for the Reapers.

Holly whispered in my ear, “They're going to do that to us soon.”

I shook my head. “Only if we say yes. They can't use thrall on us.”

Holly's lip trembled. “I'm scared, but it's exciting too.”

I looked at her. “What do you mean? You told me you'd never had sex.”

She looked at me, embarrassed. “I haven't,” she rolled her lip into her teeth, biting it softly. “But, it makes me hot here,” she said pointing to her pussy.

I guess the Druid biology was already working. Priming her for use. Untried or not. She may not have that title for long.

I shuddered to think about a virgin in the hands of Reapers. All four.

Elias walked in just then, he looked at Holly, sniffing the air. He gave her a smile.

“You smell of heat and sex, Druid.”

Holly cowered against me and I said, “Don't you touch her. You just had a human, you don't need her.”

His eyes were hooded and he looked at Holly. “Do you want my fingers and tongue inside you, little Druid.”

Holly stood and began to take off her pants.

“No!” I yelled. “Holly no!”

She didn't listen, tears streaming down her face. “I'm sorry, I just have to have some relief. Zach took me to the brink, always saying he'd finish it when we got somewhere safe. I want to be a virgin but I have to … I need...”

“I know what you need, little Druid,” he said softly. And before she could react he was on her, tearing her panties down to her ankles and I stood there and watched helplessly as he buried his face in her pussy, lapping at her cunt while she whimpered and begged for more, helpless before the biological directive that we shared.

Holly felt so guilty. She was the perfect mate of Zach, but he had made her sexually frustrated. She spread her legs as the vampire put his tongue on the nub of her clit and sucked it until she cried out. Holly knew that he might fuck her but she couldn't stop herself. Her pussy felt so ripe. As he suckled her clit she shoved her pussy in his face and he chuckled. “So eager,” he murmured. He began to put a finger in her hole. “Oh... so tight. You feel so tight. Please... little Druid, let me put my shaft in you until I reach your barrier.”

Holly knew she should say no but it would technically keep her a virgin, her barrier still in place.

She let her legs fall open to receive what he offered and Rachel said, “Don't Holly.”

Holly didn't listen, her pussy dripping with honey.

Elias couldn't wait to penetrate this Druid. He would not really be taking her virginity but he would explore the tightness of her flesh as far as he could.

He did, pushing his shaft into her wet folds, the tightness of her almost unbearable, like a velvet stranglehold she caressed him. He wanted to shove his length inside her the whole way, pinning her beneath him but he held back. He began a slow pump and knew he wouldn't last. She was so fucking tight it was irresistible, and even with only two inches of his ten inch length fucking her she begged him to fuck her the whole way, but he held back.

He pushed his cock into the tightest hole he had ever had the pleasure of fucking and reached a tight shield. He pulled back, surging forward to meet it again. He fucked that tight portion of her pussy again and again, stretching her tight cunt. In a frenzy of partial entry he felt his balls seize up and he spurted his hot seed into the shallow cavity of her pussy. He released a huge amount of cum that slid harmlessly off her barrier. He lay on top of her spent. Tearing the shirt from her breasts he began a lazy suckle on one nipple, bringing the pink tip to an erect point of pleasure as she lay beneath him.
