dark eyes.
    “Hey, sleepyhead,” he half growled. Erica blinked twice before it finally registered that Kevin was indeed next to her.
    “Kevin, you’re home!” she exclaimed as she flipped over in bed and threw herself up against him. In her sudden move, she caught him unaware, causing him to fall backwards on the bed, bringing her down on top of his stomach as he went. Excitedly, she quickly leaned down to kiss him. Her lips locked with his, and he found himself allowing her to take the lead. As he kissed her back, he moved his arms up behind his head, in order to allow her this time. After a moment, she broke off to catch her breath, but kept her lips on him. She veered off from his lips only to place tiny kisses across his cheek, moving around to the side of his neck. There, she nibbled his earlobe, causing him to almost shoot his load right then and there. It was so good to see her coming out of her shell! All he could do was lay there and enjoy watching her as she continued raining kisses down his neck. She reached the lower part of his neck, right before his shoulder, and suddenly, he felt tiny teeth.
    Feeling his dick getting harder and his own incisors lengthening, Kevin quickly turned over and placed her under him. Not wanting to scare her with his elongated incisors, he quickly tucked her head under his chin. He just needed a minute or two to calm down so his fangs would retract. Unfortunately, Erica wasn’t about to let his move deter her.
    She started kissing his chest, anywhere her mouth could reach. When she inched downward slightly, Kevin made no move to stop her, as he was concentrating on getting himself under control.
    When he felt her little sharp teeth nipping at his nipple, he sucked in a deep breath, willing his body to cooperate. It was a lost cause, the beast inside him had been put on hold long enough, and now demanded to be let out to play.
    In a strangled voice, he croaked, “Erica, baby, slow down just a little. God, I knew if you ever came out of your protective shell you would be a hot little thing!” He moved so he could tuck her head tightly against his neck, allowing him the time he desperately needed to regain control. She held perfectly still for a moment, and then asked in a shaky voice, “Was I doing something wrong? Were you not enjoying it?”
    Making sure he kept her face pressed up to the side of his neck, he was quick to assure her. “You did nothing wrong, baby. I was enjoying it too much. I just want to take things slow. I don’t want there to be any chance of scaring you.”
    He heard her sigh deeply. “You are such a gentleman, Kevin. Thank you, but there’s no need to worry.” She paused and took a deep breath. “I’m ready to be yours, Kevin, if you still want me.”
    Well hell, he thought, he almost had those pesky fangs receded. He continued to hold her for a long minute, before whispering, “Are you sure, baby?”
    “Yes, Kevin, I’m sure. You have been the most patient man I have ever known, but I think I am ready to give myself to you. You do still want me, don’t you?” she asked as insecurity rushed to the forefront.
    “Oh, baby, you don’t know how long I have waited to hear those words! Of course I want you! I’ll take whatever you can give me, baby. I love you!” Thankfully, his fangs receded and he felt confident in leaning down and giving her a kiss.
    Smiling down at her gently, he couldn’t help but tease her a bit. “And here I thought I told you to be ready to leave, and I come home to find a sleeping beauty.”
    Remembering that she had indeed promised him she would be ready to leave as soon as he returned, she reached up to cover a gasp that escaped her throat. “Oh gosh, I’m sorry, I forgot! I can be up, dressed, and ready to go in just a couple of minutes.”
    She attempted to sit up, with the intention of getting out of bed, but Kevin’s arms tightened around her, effectively stopping any attempt by her. “If you try to move an inch away from me in the next few hours, I’m afraid I’m going to have to stop you,” he whispered seductively. “I’ve been away from you for too long, I need to feel your body up against mine.” He grinned down at her and raised an eyebrow. “And I would love to feel your body wrapped around mine also, if you’re ready.”
    As his lips came crushing back down on hers, it was with a hunger that simply refused to be quenched. Kevin gently reclined her back down on the bed, his body
