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

picked one of his locks, he would be furious, but Kevin wasn’t going to be the one who told him. Jennifer and he had kept that little gift of hers to themselves.
    When he had glanced into the box, he spotted a lot of silk and lace. Good, he thought to himself, she needed that stuff. A smile played on his lips, as image after image flitted through his mind of her modeling for him. He would need to remember to thank his younger sister.
    “Well, I did tell Jennifer to get your wardrobe set. Now I know why she hung on to my credit card,” he casually stated.
    “Kevin, I’m sorry, this is my fault,” Erica whispered. “I honestly didn’t think she would buy out a whole damn store! I knew she could go overboard, but she truly went way overboard this time!” She looked up at him to judge his mood. Would he be mad? Would this be the thing that finally sent him into a temper? Well, if it was she would just have to shoulder the responsibility on this one since she was the one who had asked Jennifer for help
    He swung down and picked her up so fast it made her head spin. He had her standing in front of him, lightly grasping her hips, before her heart could have even thought about skipping a beat. “I’m not upset, love. I knew she must have been up to something to hang on to my credit card. Our kind doesn’t forget things like that. I just didn’t know what she was up to. I’m not mad at all.” He gave a quick glance down into the box and then back up to Erica with an amused expression on his face. “So, are you going to model any of this for me?” he asked with a twinkle in his eye and a wide grin on his face.
    Erica bit down on her lower lip. “I need to see what all is in here, first. Your sister went way overboard. I sent her out for one or two nightwear outfits, and she comes back with this.” She gestured towards the box on the floor. “I need to see what all she has done before I can answer that question.”
    “Fair enough,” Kevin replied. He gave her a kiss, and she wrapped her arms around him tightly. “I do hope you will decide to model some of it for me,” he whispered in her ear. She could feel the heat start in her chest and work up to her neck and face, all the way to her hairline. He chuckled at seeing her face go up in flames. “I would have thought after all we have done, you wouldn’t be so easy to embarrass,” he teased.
    Erica decided to take the box into the spare bedroom to figure out what all was in it. As she spread everything out on the double bed and then started sorting things into piles, she had to admit it was all very pretty. She also had to admit that most of her undergarments needed to be replaced, and having an assortment of pretty, sexy lingerie to wear to bed was great. As a yawn escaped her, she glanced over to the clock. It was already 10:00 p.m. Where had the evening gone? She quickly picked out her selection for the night and threw everything else back in the box, then headed for the bathroom for a quick shower.
    As Erica took a look at herself in the mirror, she had to admit the change was nice. And, she was sure Kevin would enjoy the view. She chose a long blue gown with a plunging neckline, and only a scrap of lace covering her breasts. There was a long slit going up the front of the nightgown, separated by yet more lace that went clean up to her navel. Oh yeah, Kevin is going to love this one, she mused as she took in a gulp of air and walked out of the bathroom.
    She found Kevin relaxing in bed, appearing to be reading. He glanced up when he heard her enter, and felt his eyes widen in appreciation. A low growl escaped his throat before he could stop it. Damn, she looked good enough to devour!
    As she climbed into bed, he wrapped his arm around her, bringing her body up against his. “You look so incredibly hot in that!” he whispered, as his lips quickly searched out hers. “You do realize it is not going to be staying on your body very long, though, right?”
    Erica let out a short giggle. “Well, consider me your present. I’ll let you do the honor of unwrapping me,” she replied with another short giggle.
    “With pleasure, my love,” his hand was already reaching for the bottom of the gown to pull it over her head. Once he had it off and thrown over to the floor, he focused on her breasts. “Now, that is so much better. I like being able to get to these guys, uninhibited.” He watched in amazement as her nipples budded just from him staring at
