Michelle Hasker

Kar shrieked as the door slammed open and banged against the wall. She gasped for air and backed up on the bed wishing the hotel had installed better locks. Or that she'd used them.

A tall man dressed in blue stood there staring at her. Had he followed her from the beach? His glance never flickered from her face although she wasn't sure how she knew that when his eyes were hidden behind sunglasses.

"Who are you and what do you want?" Kar slid backwards on the bed until her back hit the wall. She reached for the phone and hoped it would be a suitable weapon.

"You." His voice was deep and husky, and sent tremors up her spine.

"What?" she croaked as his soft comment reached through her confusion.

"I've come for you."

Oh Gods. She panted as her underwear dampened when he spoke. His voice was so sexy, and so familiar. But she didn't know him, and he'd broken into her room.

He stepped into the room and she screamed, loud and long as she flung the phone across the room. The phone caught on the cord and fell short of her target with a crash.

"Chill out, sis." A woman giggled from the doorway. "I brought him here for you." With that, her sister slammed the door shut, leaving Kar alone in the room with a tall dark stranger.

"Whatever she's paying you, I'll double it if you just say we did it but leave now."

As he approached the bed slowly, Kar realized he was wearing a uniform and wondered how long Sheryl had been planning this.

"You'll double what she's paying me if I turn and walk out that door now?"

"Yes."

"Without experiencing any of the services I can provide you?"

"Yes. I...I'm not interested."

"Not interested?" His eyebrows quirked above the sunglasses. "But you haven't heard what I'm going to do for you yet."

"It's ok, I don't go for cops anyway."

A deep chuckle rumbled through the room. "I'm not a cop. I'm a sailor."

"I don't go for sailors either." Kar clutched a pillow to her chest. "I'll write you a check right now."

"Tsk, tsk." He clucked as he stepped closer. He reached for a strand of her hair and rubbed it between his fingers before lifting it to his face and sniffing. "Mmm, you smell like peaches."

"Triple," she croaked, reaching for her purse.

"What's the matter?"

He lowered his hand and grabbed her outstretched wrist. A shock traveled up her arm and neck short-circuiting her thought processes.

"Please leave," Kar begged breathlessly.

His thumb caressed the vein in her wrist, rubbing back and forth gently. He smiled then, a purely male smile of satisfaction.

"You don't really want me to leave do you? After your sister and husband went through the trouble of finding me for you?"

Kar groaned. "I should have known he was in on it too. Look I'm not interested in this." She licked her lips before leaning closer and whispering, "I don't pay for sex."

"You aren't paying for it," he grinned wolfishly.

"I'm waiting for someone."

Kar tried to pull away but his grip, while gentle, was firm enough that she couldn't get free. She whimpered when he leaned closer, his scent filling her nose and sending a rush of desire straight to her belly.

"Somebody you met on the internet, right?"

Kar blinked, then narrowed her eyes.

"Everyone swears I look just like my pictures. I got sent home early and with your sister's help, I set this meeting up. You sounded like you were interested in me. Was I wrong?"

"But...but we just talked last night. You never said..."

Kar blinked and tried to pull free half-heartedly. With his free hand the stranger reached up and pulled off his sunglasses. He tossed them on the foot of the bed and kneeled on the mattress. He leaned toward her even while she tried to back away.

"It's me," he whispered softly. "Jake."

"No." Kar shook her head trying to clear out the fog that engulfed her at his nearness. "Impossible."

"Honey." He crawled closer pressing his chest against the pillow. "Why would your sister let me into your room if she didn't know that I am who I say I am?"

Kar opened her mouth to respond but closed it quickly. He had a point. "It's me," he whispered again lowering his face toward hers. "Let me prove it."

He tugged on the pillow but Kar refused to let go. He confused her, made her feel things she hadn't felt in a while. She sighed, confused and aroused beyond belief.

"Kiss me." His lips brushed against hers as he spoke.

Kar groaned, shivering in response. Her lips met his and she melted into the kiss.

"Yes," his whisper echoed in her ears.

He tugged on the pillow again, and this time Kar let it go without protest. Jake slid it behind her and pushed her down on the bed.

"Mine."

He sighed and pulled back to stare at her. Kar wondered what thoughts were racing around in his head. His gaze roamed her face as if trying to memorize what she looked like.

"What's with the uniform?"

"Sheryl thought it might get you excited."

Kar giggled. "I don't need to see you in uniform to get excited. Just talking to you on instant messenger or on the phone does that."

"You do the same to me, babe."

Jake. The man she'd fallen in love with over months of instant messages and emails. The man who'd gone to school with her brother-in-law but had chosen to stay in the armed forces for longer. How could she doubt they would be able to tell if it really was Jake? She reached up and fisted her hands in his hair, pulling him down for another kiss. This time she took the lead, devouring his mouth with her own while her hands held him tightly.

It had to be him. "I believe you."

Kar waited for him to recognize what she was saying. When he did he let out a whoop and kissed her again. Soon, his mouth left hers as he trailed wet kisses down her neck and back up to her ear.

Jake whispered in her ear, shivers running up and down her spine at his words. "I want to love you. I want to give you more pleasure than you've felt with anyone before. And I want to do it in every way possible. Now."

"Mmm," Kar purred, arching her back and pressing her aching breasts against him. She tugged on his shirt, and started fumbling with the buttons until Jake grabbed her hands and held them still.

Swiftly, he dispatched with the buttons. Kar sat up and pushed his shirt off, her hands lingering on his hard, broad chest. Her gaze lowered and so did her hands, exploring the tight muscles of his stomach.

His hands slid under her shirt and around to her back while his fingers wrapped around her bra and tugged.

"Front closure?" he whispered huskily against her ear.

Kar nodded, her cheek rubbing against his. She helped him remove her shirt and tossed it to the floor.

"Nice."

He growled in appreciation before undoing her bra. Once he cupped her breasts heat flooded her. More moisture pooled between her thighs as he drew one stiff peak into his mouth and teased the other nipple with his fingers.

"Oh my," she gasped.

Kar moaned in pleasure, her fingers digging into his shoulders as he pushed her back down on the bed. He buried his face between her breasts, drawing in deep breaths.

"Finally." He peeked up at her through his hair. "I love you."

"I know," Kar sighed, smiling. "I love you too."

"You better," he growled trailing kisses down her stomach to the waistband on her shorts.

"Jake," she gasped when his tongue slipped between her shorts and her flesh.

Before she could ask for more, he tugged her shorts down and tossed them on the floor. He kissed her again until she was breathless and aching to feel him in her. After what felt like eons, Jake stood up and stripped off his pants.

"Oh my." Kar stared at the bulge in his white briefs.

Sitting up she crawled toward him and reached for his waist. She grabbed his briefs and tugged them down. He was so big, bigger than she expected. She looked up to see him smirking.

"Is something wrong?"

"You’re just so...big," she blurted without thinking.

A large grin covered his face.

"The better to love you with, my dear."

Kar chuckled and wrapped her hands around him. She ran her hands up and down the length of him, squeezing gently when he moaned. When his hands settled on her shoulders Kar leaned forward and licked the tip of his cock.

He jumped in her hands, a loud growl filling the room.

"Do you like that?"

Kar purred, teasing the rim of his cock with her tongue. Sliding her tongue back and forth she laughed when he groaned and thrust the tip into her mouth.

"Mmmmmm."

Kar moaned and slid him deep into her mouth. Jake grabbed onto her shoulders as he shuddered. His head tilted back as waves of pleasure slipped along his skin.

"Gods, Kar...your mouth...mmm..."

Her hands slid down his shaft and cupped his balls. She squeezed them lightly before running her hands back up his length. Slowly she pulled him out of her mouth, licking the tip before grazing her teeth against his sensitive flesh.

“Gods above, woman..." Jake hissed through clenched teeth, his fingers flexing in the dark locks of Kar's hair.

She glanced up at him and smiled. As she took him back in her mouth he groaned. He closed his eyes, tightening his hold on her.

"Kar, baby, that feels so good. You have to stop."

Kar paused.

"Good. If you hadn't stopped I'd have...ohhh." He growled when she took him deep in her mouth again, caressing him with her hands and mouth.

Kar stroked him with her mouth and hands until he shouted her name, his seed filling her mouth.

"Was it worth the wait?" She asked, blinking innocently as she licked the tip of his cock.

Jake growled and pulled her up. He kissed her harshly, devouring her mouth with his. "You know I liked it, but I wanted to be deep inside you when that happened."

Kar smiled and shrugged. "Perhaps I could get you aroused again," she purred rubbing against him.

"Maybe I should repay the favor?"

Jake smirked as he picked her up in his arms and dropped her on the bed. Kar shrieked and then giggled.

"Prepare to be ravished."

Kar giggled as he lowered his face to her stomach and blew against her skin making raspberries noises.

"Stop," Kar panted when she could catch her breath.

"Sure."

Jake leaned forward and captured her lips with his. He nipped at her bottom lip and then nibbled his way down her neck to her breast. Kar arched when he sucked one hard peak into his mouth. He teased her other nipple eliciting breathless moans from her. Kar grabbed his shoulders, her fingers digging into his flesh. He moved lower, dragging his lips and tongue across her stomach, pausing to glance up at her.

"Don't stop," she pleaded, urging him on with her hands.

With a wolfish grin, Jake lowered his hands and spread her legs open to his gaze.

"Just remember that when you are begging me to stop." Kar laughed, "Oh you're that good are you?" "My mouth was made for your pleasure." He winked and lowered his head until his mouth hovered over her belly. He teased her navel with his tongue before kissing his way lower. Kar groaned when he pushed her legs up and apart, opening her to him. He blew gently across her swollen lips. "Jake," she whimpered growing wetter with each breath. "What?" he whispered, lips brushing against her folds. "Would you like me to...taste you?" "Ohh." Kar shuddered at his soft comment. Tingles raced up and down her flesh. She wondered if it was possible to come without him even touching her. His breath cooled her hot flesh. "You are so responsive, my little kat." Kar fisted her fingers in the comforter. She bit her lip to keep from crying out. Slowly Jake drew one finger along her folds, barely touching her. Kar cried out and arched against him.

"Oh please, please," she whimpered.

"Please what?"

Kar growled and lifted her hips off the mattress. Jake chuckled and pressed her back down. He slowly rubbed his hand over her mound. Kar shuddered and tried to push into his hand, but he stopped.

"Okay, my little kat. I'll give you what you need."

"Thanks the gods," she groaned, relaxing, waiting for the feel of his mouth on her.

Jake teased her folds with the tip of his finger before lowering his mouth and running his tongue over her. Kar bucked.

"Mmm, you taste sweet my little kat."

Kar moaned and reached for him. Jake plunged his tongue into her dampness sending her over the edge. She screamed as tremors racked her body, shattering her into a million pieces.

Jake growled and sucked her clit into his mouth while she writhed under his hands. He teased her sensitive nub.

"Gods," she cried out, "My gods!"

Jake hummed against her folds as he leisurely licked at her sweet juices. When he trailed kisses on her thigh Kar fisted her hands in the blankets. Suddenly, there was a sharp pain from her inner thigh, and then pleasure, as she felt Jake suck on her flesh. Gods, he'd bit her and it felt so good.

After a minute, he licked at the sore spot, then looked up at her. She looked down, meeting his gaze and froze. There was some blood on his mouth. Had he bit her that hard? She looked at her leg and saw two small holes that were rapidly shrinking. Vampire. Eyes wide, her heart pounded a rapid tattoo in her chest as he licked his lips and grinned, showing two long, sharp fangs.

"Shhh. Don't panic, love. I'd meant to reveal my secret gradually, but your screams sent me over the edge."

"Vampire," she whispered. What did he want with her? Had he seduced her via the internet for a free meal? But why spend all that time wooing her when he could just use the skills vampires supposedly had and mesmerize himself a meal?

"I love you, Kar. I want to spend the rest of my life with you."

"But you're a vampire."

"I know. What do you say? Will you spend eternity with me?"

Kar woke with a start as the door to her room flew open and a man in blue stood there staring at her. She looked down at herself. She was fully dressed. What had happened? Or What on earth?
