“So, what should we do?” Tobias asks, feeling my unease through the bond we share.
“I’m not sure, but we can’t let her keep harboring that sort of darkness. She will go insane, Tobias.”
“Does it feel like it lessened, though?”
I think for a second. Her magic did change toward the end, felt purer not as tainted and twisted. “Yes, the darkness left her and went into me. I can feel it moving through me.”
Tobias looks toward me, concern crossing his features. “Can you handle it, Theo?” He asks, and I can feel what he is asking. I have been controlling the darkest parts of me for so long, yet even I feel it tries to taint me the way it does her.
“I’m not sure, maybe in small doses.” I can feel his thoughts running through his head and I know what he wants to ask but doesn’t know how to. “I know what you want Tobias; I can do it, but Imogen may not agree. She will feel the effects of it leaving her and I think she might not want to give up the power it offers.”
“We will see how she is once she wakes up,” he says before walking into the bathroom. I nod, not really liking the idea, but it might be my only choice. I know the sort of power she has will eventually become all-consuming if we don’t find a way to control it.
“She won’t be happy when she wakes up,” I tell him, imagining her anger that will be aimed at us.
Tobias chuckles, nodding his head. “Hopefully, you, taking some of the darkness also took her anger.” He sings out from the bathroom and I hear him turn the shower on.
When he leaves the room, my eyes flick to her face, sleeping blissfully unaware of what just happened and the effect her blood has over me. My gums tear open and my fangs protrude just at the sight of her. Getting up, I walk toward the bathroom, not trusting myself around her. Tobias is in the shower, he opens the door, allowing me to hop in, but his scent is overwhelming with the steam heating the room.
“I need to go, Tobias. I need to try to run it out of my system.” I tell him.
I feel crazed and manic with hunger. Tobias looks at me and I can feel it worries him. He nods his head before leaning out of the shower. I kiss his lips before darting out of the room, needing to get away from them before I feed on Tobias. I know I won’t stop if I do and I won’t risk hurting my mates.
Imogen
Waking up, I stretch my limbs. My body feels stiff like I have been in the same position all night, yet I also feel lighter, and happier than I have in ages. I feel someone move beside me, feeling their warm skin against mine and I know it’s Tobias.
That’s when everything comes crashing back to me. Sitting upright, I look around the room and realize we are in our bed, Theo is nowhere to be seen. I sniff the air, smelling for his scent, yet I find nothing except the smell of Tobias. My gums tingle as I breathe in his scent. Tobias wakes startled and I realize my growl is louder than I thought. He stares at me and smiles, and I feel anger boil up before spewing over and I’m suddenly on top of him.
Smacking into him as I realize, he just watched while Theo drained me of my blood and effectively knocked me out. My fists raining down on him seemed to have no effect on him at first, until I hit him hard in the face, splitting his lip open.
The smell of his blood fills the room and my senses become overloaded, and I realize I’m completely ravenous. I watch the blood trickle down his lip and over his chin. Pinning him down, I lean over him before moving closer, completely entranced at the sight of his blood. I run my tongue over his chin to his lip, licking the blood up.
I hear him groan at the sensation of my tongue, running over his warm flesh. Biting on his lip, realization must dawn on him as he tries shoving me off. My nails dig into his arms as bloodlust takes over and I bite into the flesh of his neck. His blood spilling into my mouth makes me moan as it soothes the burning ache in my throat, promising to extinguish the burning throughout my body.
I growl, pulling his head to the side, and I can feel him trying to get me to let go. He grips my hair pulling my head back and I growl at him. I can feel his blood running down my cheek as bloodlust takes over everything and all I can think about his ripping into his carotid artery.
I feel Tobias’ worry fleetingly through the bond before he suddenly smashes his lips into mine. The distraction makes me growl before arousal floods me through the bond, making me forget the need to feed.
I kiss him back harder and grind my hips against him, my lips moving to his chest as I taste his salty skin under my tongue. I can feel his hands in my hair as I move lower, pull his pants down and wrap my hand around his hardened length. Lust consumes every part of me. Before I go to take him in my mouth, I’m suddenly ripped back upwards.
“As much as I would love for you to continue,” he kisses me softly before pulling away. “I would rather keep my manhood attached to me.” He tells me, making me confused.
He chuckles lightly, and I furrow my eyebrows as he moves his hand to my face, his thumb pressing against my fangs, which I realize are still protruding. I sit up, startled at the realization.
“You let him attack me?” I ask him, suddenly remembering the reason I hit him in the first place.
I hear him sigh and sit, draping my legs on either side of his waist. He rubs my bare thighs with his hands, making me shiver. “We didn’t have a choice Imogen, you wouldn’t sleep.” He tells me, observing my face carefully. I try to argue back, but my hunger is out of control. My words slur as I try to speak around my fangs. I eventually give up, knowing he can’t understand me, I sound drunk.
“How do you feel, do you feel better?” He asks.
I think for a second. I felt better actually, lighter, like it has lifted a weight off of me. My usual depressing mood isn’t weighing me down.
