Vampires Among Us [Vampires Among Us 1] (Siren Publishing Classic)

wasn’t going to win, so she finally gave up. Much to her surprise, since he already knew her size, Kevin had added several other outfits to the stack on the counter while she was trying on the bathing suits. On top of the stack of clothing, he placed a floppy straw hat, and looked over at her with a grin. “I don’t want to see that pretty little nose of yours getting burned!”
    When the saleslady rang up the total, it hit Erica at how much changing she had done. Just a short time ago she would have dropped her jaw over spending so much at one time. Now she just smiled up at Kevin and said, “Thank you.”
    He leaned down and gave her a gentle kiss, a reward for accepting his generosity. Whispering in her ear he told her, “I’m going to spoil you rotten, so just sit back and enjoy it.”
    While the saleslady ran the credit card through, he casually moved Erica so she was standing in front of him. He snaked his arm around her waist and pulled her back, allowing her to feel his hard erection in the crease of her ass. Leaning back down he whispered, “Later,” just as the saleslady approached with receipt and bag in hand.
    They continued their shopping, and Erica was amazed to realize that Kevin didn’t mind shopping with her at all. She had thought all men hated shopping, but Kevin was proving that theory incorrect. But then again, he seemed to enjoy going into the dressing room with her and helping her try on the clothes. Then there was that incident in the dressing room where he decided he liked that sheer purple top a little too much…
    They reached the beach house just as nightfall arrived. As they turned into the neighborhood, a smile came across Erica’s face. Each house was painted a different color, and some of those colors were a bit unusual. If she had to put a name to it, she would have called it the Easter Egg Village. Each house reminded her of a brightly colored Easter egg. They drove past a bright yellow house, a medium blue house, a fluorescent green. The next one was a bright pink, followed by a peach, and so on. She found herself beginning to wonder what color the house was that they would be staying at. She was a little surprised when they drove straight through the neighborhood, and wondered exactly where the family’s house was located. At the end of the neighborhood, a small gravel path appeared. Kevin turned onto the path, and about a half a mile down the path suddenly opened up to a beautiful slate blue house with white shutters. The white wicker furniture sitting on the front porch gave the house an inviting, friendly look, while the short picket fence that separated the backyard from the front allowed for some privacy. Not that you needed a privacy fence out here, there was nothing as far as the eye could see. Erica should have known her vampire family would own a secluded beach house. The beach lay directly behind the house and the flower boxes on the front windows were well groomed and full of blooming flowers.
    Kevin drove up the gravel path to the garage and hit a button to open it. Erica smiled as she stepped out of the car. This house had a comfortable, inviting look to it. Her mind wandered involuntarily, and before she realized what was happening, it had conjured up an image of the two of them living in a house similar to this one. In her mind, she watched as the two of them sat on the wicker furniture on the front porch, watching their children playing in the front yard. She glanced over at Kevin as he grabbed the suitcase out of the back, along with the bags from the mall, and ducked her head quickly, feeling the heat once again rise up her face.
    It was no small wonder her mind was playing games with her. Kevin’s hand had succeeded in wandering up her thigh numerous times during the road trip. She had worn a rather short skirt, which he seemed to enjoy immensely. As her mind seemed stuck on replaying the events from the past two hours, her cheeks grew hotter. How the man could bring her to a major orgasm with just his fingers while driving down the highway at the same time was beyond her. He was certainly talented. Her body was still humming from his latest ministrations!
    The inside of the house was warm and stuffy, evidence of being closed up for some time. Kevin flipped the air conditioner on as he passed by, then continued to drop off the suitcases in the bedroom.
    “Sorry it is so hot in here. Let’s go for an evening swim, it should be cooled off by the time
