The Request

Chapter eight

I drained Alinza almost to the point of death, then slit my wrist and held it over her mouth. She was barely alive but as the red liquid dripped into her mouth she began to respond holding my wrist and beginning to drink from me. I felt the drain on myself and broke off her grip. I felt weak but watched as my soon to be first-born vampire daughter thrashed around on the bed crying out in pain.

‘Aaaah wha-what is happening.’ She gasped.

‘Don’t fight it my childe, this is a necessary evil that we all have to endure.’ I placed a hand to her sweaty brow. She convulsed on the bed twice more and lay still, eyes closing as her body died.

She looked so peaceful lying there and I stroked her face. It would be many hours until she awoke a new-born vampire. I rose from the bed and summoned a slave to fetch me a prisoner. I would need to regain my own strength before I could cast the memory spell as it required a lot of concentration and I needed to be fully fed to concentrate properly.

The slave returned and I drained the prisoner, handing the body back to be removed. Moving over to the bed, I cast my memory spell. A light aura appeared round the body on the bed and I saw memories rise up from within her. Pictures and snippets from her human life. They swirled round and round faster and faster until they were a blur in the air. Then suddenly it stopped and the whirling cloud of memories dissipated and vanished into thin air.

I gazed down at Alinza lying on the bed and brushed a wayward strand of hair from her face. A sound behind me made me turn to see Kain had slipped through the door and was watching me. He walked over to me then and gazed down at the figure prostrated on our bed.

‘What do you think of her?’

‘She has a strong body, supple and neat. She is a good choice my love.’

He kissed the top of my head then and embraced me from behind. I shivered as he feathered light kisses onto my neck. Sighing, I tilted my head up and to the side. He did not bite me as he knew the drain on the system it was to raise a fledge but instead he kissed every inch of my neck making me groan with mounting need.

I turned round and we shared a deep kiss. I reached up and tangled my talons in his hair and he lifted me up and carried me over to the couch. He seated himself below me and undressed my top half, leaning forwards to kiss and caress each breast in turn. I in turn kissed his ‘crown’ and stroked his hair all the wile being driven wild by his teasing tongue.

I jumped backwards off him then unable to wait any longer and yanked my pants off. I then yanked his off with lightening speed and I was on his lap again rubbing my waiting womanhood up and down his member making him moan and reach for me. He placed his hands onto my hips and lifting me up, he forced my down onto himself. With a cry of pleasure, I began to rise up and down on him while one of his claws played with my most sensitive little nub of flesh and the other hand massaged my breast. Still he was careful not to draw blood and I was thankful for that. He moved his hips under me, meeting my thrusts with his own until we spent ourselves in unison reverberating the walls with our cries.

We clung onto each other for a long time after that, enjoying the feel of Cold skin against cold skin. I kissed the top of his head and he gazed up at me smiling slightly.

‘Your fledge will awaken soon. She will need two slaves before she is sated.’

‘I only needed one.’ I remembered.

‘Ah yes but you are strong and it wasn’t too long before you had your second if I remember rightly.’

‘Ah yes I remember now.’ The ‘second’ having been his own blood, with which he had indulged my hunger in on that first night so long ago.

I looked over at my first-born and smiled. She was already looking white and sliding off Kain I walked over and felt her. She was cold to the touch and her lips were darkening. She was taking on the form of a vampire and I knew inside her mouth, her fangs were growing. I looked at the hands to see the beginnings of sharp claws forming and I knew I had been successful. Walking back over to Kain, I dressed and tossed him his clothes so he could get dressed as well.

The deed done we both went and sat on the bed waiting for my youngling to wake. For a while nothing happened. Then her eyelids fluttered and she opened her eyes.

‘Where am I?’ her voice was dry and cracked, being barely above a whisper.

You are in the Sanctuary of the Clans and this is your Lord and master Kain.’ She looked over and bowed her head to him. ‘And I am the one who gave you birth into unlife - Your mother.

‘My mother?’

The girl seemed confused looking puzzled as she tried to remember. I hoped desperately that my spell had worked properly and that she had no recollection of her human life. She gave up in the end and lay back on the bed.

‘Are you hungry childe?’

‘Yes.’

Kain rang the bell next to our bed and a slave appeared leading a prisoner who looked scared knowing full well his fate. Rising from the bed I grabbed the prisoner and bit into his neck. I dragged him over to the bed and held him steady for Alinza to feed.

She started slowly but soon speeded up as a look of wonder crossed her face and she drank greedily. Oh yes she would be a good one all right. Across the bed Kain watched and approving look etched into his features. He nodded and rose up to leave us to become better acquainted.

Alinza finished draining the human and looked at me with blood on her lips and staining the sheets where it had spilled.

Sitting there on the bed with her auburn hair spilling over her shoulders with a look of ecstasy on her beautiful face. Desire burned within me and I purred softly. Reaching up I stroked her face and she leaned towards me and nuzzled into my shoulder.

I stroked her hair letting the silken strands run though my fingers and moved down to rub her back. She sighed and nuzzled closer. With my other hand I tilted her chin up towards me and looked into her eyes. Love and desire was lurking in those jade-green pools and I knew she desired and wanted me. I bent down and kissed her full on the lips. My tongue probed her mouth and she responded to the kiss, wrapping her arms round my neck and pulling me down towards her. We lay on the bed side by side and my searching hand found it’s way down towards her waiting womanhood. I stroked her gently touching her sensitive little nub and making her gasp and arch her back. I bent down and kissed a pert nipple before taking two fingers and sliding them deep within. She thrust herself on me as I moved faster and faster.

She went tense crying out as her body shook with her climax. I fought down my own feelings of desire – Kain would see to that later I smiled to myself. Alinza relaxed as her body calmed and leaned against me. Our bond as sire and fledge was now completed and I held onto her stroking her hair.

‘Mother?’

‘Hmm..’

‘I am still hungry.’

‘Of course childe, I will have a slave brought.’

Ringing the bell by the bed, another slave appeared with a prisoner in tow. I led the prisoner over to the bed and bared his neck for Alinza. She looked uncertain for a moment and then instinct kicked in and she bit into the jugular drawing out the precious life giving red fluid. She drank deeply and I felt the body go limp as she sapped his life away. Finally she released him with a look of intense satisfaction on her face. She leisurely licked the remaining blood off her lips.

‘Rest now sweet childe, I shall return shortly. I must however go and find you suitable attire for this Clan – your family.’ I added when a puzzled look crossed her face. She smiled then and relaxed in complete acceptance of her situation.

I smiled feeling a rush of motherly love for the daughter I had created.

‘Never forget my sweet daughter, that Kain is your master and you must obey him at all times, is that clear?’ She nodded ‘And myself too. I am your sire and maker and so you will also answer to me.’

She nodded again. Lying back on the many pillows Kain and I liked on our bed, she drifted off to sleep.

I left the room then and made my way to where the human slaves were busy bent over clothes mending them or creating new ones. I spotted my favourite seamstress whose fingers were light and nimble and her work was exquisite.

‘Hello Doria.’

At the sound of my voice, the young seamstress dropped the work she was doing and dropped to the floor with her head down.

‘My Queen, To what do I owe this honour?’

‘I wish for you to make me a Clan symbol cloak with Lord Kain’s symbol on it and I want it as soon as is humanly possible. You will be well rewarded if you succeed quickly.’

‘I will my Queen, I will begin right away.’

‘Good then you may rise and begin.’

Doria scuttled to do as she was bid. The promise of rewards from their vampire masters was enough to make any human scurry around with great eagerness.

I left the sewing room then after leaving instructions that Doria was to bring the cloak to my room when completed.

Back in my bedroom, I found Alinza sleeping peacefully as I watched the tip of her tongue licked and imaginary drop of blood from her lip and withdrew. A small smile played around the edge of her mouth before relaxing once again and becoming expressionless.

I gazed at her lovingly. Yes I had made the right choice with her, I was sure of it.
