2. ASHER

TWO

I rubbed my sensitive fangs with my tongue. They’d popped out as soon as I’d seen the delicacy hop out of her van with a grin on her face. My gaze dropped to her thick, lush thighs, and I kneaded my palm against my hard cock. I’d been watching her since she’d arrived, going in and out of her house as she dragged box upon box out of her vehicle.

The sway of her walk enthralled me, and that ass was unmatched. I couldn’t wait until I got up close and personal with those legs and buried my face between them. Even from a distance she seemed like such a treat that lust may overcome me, and she’d end up dead. After all, it wasn’t like I’d seen anyone else move in with her, so no one would find her drained corpse if I fucked her to death. My dick twitched and I unbuckled my belt before sliding the zipper of my jeans down.

There was no way she’d see me rub one out since I was on the third floor of the manor... and she was down there... in that teeny tiny speck humans considered houses.

Freeing my dick, it bobbed, hard and ready, the mushroom head red from the blood that had rushed there. A bead of red-tinted cum formed at the tip of my cock. Groaning, I wrapped my hand around the flesh.

Eyes narrowed on the human, I watched her bend over. That ass bouncing on my cock would be phenomenal. I’d slam into her so hard, her fragile human bones would snap. I sucked a breath between my teeth and more cum spilled on my hand.

Mercy.

My lips parted as she popped out of the van and tilted her head up, looking directly at me again. A flush warmed my face, heat spreading down my neck. There was no way she could see me, but I fucking wanted her to. I wanted her eyes on me as I rubbed my thick cock in her honor. I ached to know the color of her eyes. To watch the light flee as she gifted me her life’s blood. The moonlight caressed her skin, highlighting a long, beautiful, sun-kissed neck perfect for me to sink my fangs into.

I moaned, picturing how well she’d react to me dipping into her warm pussy as I stole her blood. I’d never left my lovers wanting, even as they greeted death.

My cock twitched, jerking hard as the orgasm hedged over, causing my head to drop forward as I placed a palm on the windowsill to brace myself.

Warmth spread down my spine and metal creaked from a door opening as my cock spasmed in my hand, drenching me with my undead little swimmers.

My heart raced from sucking up the blood in my system. I groaned. Shit. That was a hard one for it being a handy. I would need to feed soon to replenish my strength.

“Don’t fuck the neighbor. Even better, don’t even think about fucking the neighbor.”

I tugged a handkerchief from my pocket to swipe myself clean and shoved the sullied cloth into my pocket.

“You’re no fun, brother.” Licking my lips, I tucked my dick into my jeans and zipped the big guy up before he got any more ideas and started to harden again then faced Jax.

We were the spitting image of each other, if you ignored the scowl that never failed to mar his face. His lowered brows spasmed as irritation flashed across his features.

“You’re going to have her at our door like all your other whores. And we don’t need any more, especially living right next to us. Not when we need to keep this place quiet.”

I pouted. “I always convince them to . . . forget our rendezvous, that is unless they die, I don’t get why your panties are in a twist.”

Jax stared at me, silent and unbending. “We’re planning in the living room,” he spat, and the echo of his heavy steps were heaven to my ears.

Killjoy.

Taking my time, I strolled across the large ‘family room’ encapsulating the left of the staircase, splitting the west and east sides of the home. I descended with my thoughts fixated on the woman next door. Females went crazy over meet-cutes, but how to set one up... hmmm ? I trailed after Jax, taking the stairs two at a time.

Perhaps I should go over and offer my services— not yet , Asher , step by step . And if that wasn’t cute enough for her to obsess over, I’d have to sneak over . . . I’d never resorted to sliding into a woman’s bed in the thick of the night to fuck her. One look at my face and they fell like flies, but if she proved unruly, I’d be capable. After, I could compel her to forget and that was that. None of my coven had to know.

“Why are you grinning?”

Tobias’s eyebrows were lowered. Downer number two, except this one’s moral compass surpassed all humans I’d encountered. He was an oddity, the only vampire I knew to care about humanity, but he needed to get with the program. Humans were toys, correction, everything was a toy meant for us to play with.

“Have you seen the morsel next door?” I licked my lips. “I can’t wait to get my dick and fangs in her, you’ll think the same as soon as you lay eyes on her—okay, maybe you won’t.” The British vampire was the oldest of all of us and yet, he was as untouched as a nun—or priest. I chuckled under my breath.

“Let’s stop discussing cunts,” Jax hissed as I dropped in the parlor recliner.

I kicked my feet up, crossing them at the ankles, admiring the glint of my Dior Derbys.

“I’m going to the club on Thirty-Sixth Avenue to see if I can get to the restricted area.” Tobias crossed his arms.

Ah, that’s why he was all dressed up.

Ren had been gone for a few weeks. A blink of an eye really, I don’t know why they were up in arms about it. My bets were that he’d worn down that vamp bitch he was obsessed with, and they were fucking away like little rabid bunnies.

I dampened my grin before my next words. I couldn’t seem too excited.

“I can go with you.”

“No, stay here,” Jaxon snapped. “There’s a reason Tobias is going. He won’t get distracted by any of the pussy trying to catch his attention.”

“Rude,” I purred, a smile curving my lips. “But accurate.” I fished the cell phone out of my pocket and navigated to my contacts. Which women to invite over...

“There’s another concern.” Jax pushed off the wall. I was surprised he could lean at all with the stick so perfectly lodged in his ass. Sighing, I sank deeper into the seat. “We have a new neighbor. We must not call attention to ourselves. That includes fucking her.” Both pairs of eyes fixed on me. “Asher. Put that thing down, you’re worse than a child.”

I huffed out a breath and crossed my arms. “I don’t appreciate you clipping my wings,” I muttered sullenly, playing up my disappointment.

They could say what they liked but the human would be mine.
