Chapter 7 The Aftermath
Sasha
I wake up alone in bed. I still can't believe I had sex with a vampire. Zane is a great guy and I feel so close to him after getting to know him over the last few days. It feels good to know he feels the same way I do. That I'm not crazy and there is something between us.
The bathroom door opens and Zane walks out dressed in a white shirt and jeans. A simple outfit he looks sexy in. His shirt fits tight on his muscular body. I wrap the sheet around my naked body and sit up.
He smiles at me. "Ready to go love?"
"I have to get dressed then we can go." I walk over to my bag of clothes and throw on a pair of pants and a white tank top. Putting on my black leather jacket also to help conceal my weapons.
Zane walks over and hugs me tightly. He hugs me like he's saying goodbye. Which I guess we are. The gala isn't for another two weeks and we agreed to separate until we meet there. So no one would suspect a thing.
I lay my head on Zane's chest. His head rests on top of mine. I feel him kiss the top of my head. I look up at him seeing his sad expression. "What's wrong Zane?"
He cups my chin and kisses me softly. I feel his tongue pushing its way in asking for permission. I let his tongue dance with mine. His hands grab my butt lifting me and placing me against the wall. Pressing his body closer to mine. He starts kissing my neck making me excited. I moan his name. "Zane."
He grabs my hair pushing it aside and lifts my head to gain more access to my neck. He kisses and licks my neck and I wait for him to bite it. Ready for him to suck my blood but the moment never comes. I never thought I would let a vampire bite me. But here I am waiting for it, practically begging for it.
Zane puts me down and backs away shaking his head. "I'm sorry Sasha I can't do this."
"Do what? We're just having fun. What's wrong with that?" I ask. I'm disappointed and confused. Does he regret last night? Was his confession all a lie?
"It's all wrong! You're a human I'm a vampire. We could never be together! It's best to just stop now."
I look down. My feelings are hurt but I won't show it. Emotions get you killed. I walk over and grab my bags. I'm about to leave out the door But first I stop and look at Zane he's still standing in the same spot and staring at me.
"Do you regret what happened? Do you not have any feelings for me?" I ask.
Zane runs his hand through his hair frustrated. "It's not that simple Sasha, I'm not good for you."
"It is that simple Zane. But if you're done with me that's fine. I can finish this on my own. Teaming up was obviously a bad idea." I slam the door closed behind me and walk as fast as possible out of the hotel and to my car. My heart is broken but I won't show it.
Once I reach my car I throw my bags in my trunk and drive away. I turn on the radio to distract me from my thoughts and wanting to cry. I shouldn't have let myself get distracted. Whatever I felt for Zane was just lust. I was horny and lonely. I'm better off alone like always.
