Chapter Forty Three



It was two in the afternoon which surprised her, that meant she'd slept for hours. The dream certainly hadn't seemed that long….yeah, let's forget the dream okay, about to see him, can't believe my subconscious would be so cruel!

The hotel bar was relatively crowded for the early hour, though the sign indicating happy hour probably had something to do with it. Jack and Will were busy at a game of pool in the corner.

"I'm telling you," Will was saying, "nine ball is the new eight ball, you really have to get up on the times old man."

Jack snorted a laugh, "Old man, huh? Well this old man can still school you pup, maybe we should take it into the ring."

"Whoa, whoa," Josh put up his hands as he reached the table, "Remember what happened last time? I thought we agreed no more of that."

"Just because my son's a pansy...."

"Pansy my ass!" Will retorted. "Why don’t we take this argument to the table?" he flexed his bicep and raised a brow in challenge.

"Give it a rest kid, you can't beat me, you'll just embarrass yourself and pull a muscle trying," Jack smirked.

Anna had to laugh at the macho exchange. "Whew," she said waving a hand in front of her face, "just smell that testosterone."

Jack gave her a scathing look and headed over to the bar.

"Sorry, did I ruin it?" Anna looked at Will apologetically.

"Nah," he said loudly, "he's just scared and using you as an excuse to back down."

Jack flicked a hand gesture over his shoulder. He came back with beers for him and his boys and looked Anna up and down with his typical "you disgust me" expression. "I ordered a Shirley Temple, it should be waiting for you over there." He inclined his head towards the bar.

Will chuckled, "Come on dad, lay off, she can have a beer."

"Little girls have no business drinking big boy drinks."

Anna glared at him. "You know if you're ever in need of my healing prowess I think I might let you bleed awhile before I help."

"As long as that means you're nowhere near the battlefield, I’m good with that princess."

God he was an infuriating bastard. She turned and strode over to the bar and sure enough there was a Shirley Temple sitting there. She had to laugh. She picked it up and started to take a swig when a wave of lust washed over her. She dropped the glass and gripped the counter hard.

"You alright miss?" The bartender hurried over and she waved him away with one hand, stammering an apology. She heard laughter coming from the guys.

"Hey barkeep, I think you should cut her off," Jack called.

That might have been funny if phantom fingers were not reaching inside of her most intimate place. She gritted her teeth but a moan slipped through the barrier.

"Miss what's wrong?" The bartender motioned for the guys, ignoring her adamant head shake.

Josh was at her side in seconds. The smell of vanilla and honey filled the space around her and she gritted, "Get me out of here.”

But it was too late, the next wave of lust nearly took out her knees and the scent was so strong it drew Will like a stray Tom. Pheromones, her mind supplied weakly.

"What's going on?" Will asked.

Josh gave him a look, "We have to get her to the room, now."

Jack walked up and Josh tried to dissuade him, "We got this covered dad, I think she got into some bad food."

Jack looked at her doubtfully. "What's that smell?"

Will's eyes widened as something dawned on him. "Oh shit, this is potentially bad."

"Bad?” Anna stammered, “Bad how...” her question faded to a moan as her whole body ignited with the need for sex.

"What the hell is going on?" Jack demanded. "And don't give me food poisoning horseshit."

Anna stared up at Jack’s handsome face as he hovered over her,

“God Jack, I want you so bad right now,” she said as the rational part of her brain cowered in disbelief.

All three men stared at her in astonishment. She abruptly burst into tears then crumpled to the ground with the next wave of lust.

She felt arms lift her up and carry her out of the bar and she attempted to wiggle herself into a position to rub that sensitive part of her against any part of him.

"Calm down Anna, try to get a grip," Will whispered.

She continued to wiggle and he crushed her against him to stop her and she was dying for someone to touch her EVERYWHERE, oh God she wanted him to lick and bite and thrust.

They made it to the room and closed the door just in time for her fangs to extract. She bit Will without warning.

"HOLY FUCK, WHAT THE FUCKING HELL!!" Jack bellowed.


Will rushed her into the bathroom and locked the door putting his back against it as she drank. He could hear Josh trying to calm their dad down and doing a piss poor job.

"You need to sit down so I can explain this!" Josh yelled over his ranting.

"Explain this? Explain that little Anna is a fucking bloodsucker, that my sons are fucking liars, do you have any clue what is happening to her right now? No? Well allow me to enlighten you. She's going into heat, which means that every bloodsucker within a three hundred mile radius is going to be heading for this hotel come sundown, all crazy with the desire to fuck her! You need to call one of her leech buddies to come and take her now!"

"She doesn't have any leech buddies dad!"

"What the hell are you talking about? There hasn't been any new females in centuries and from what I hear there are few of them left in ratio to males so don't fucking tell me she doesn't have one bloodsucking friend...

Josh shouted to be heard, "She is nineteen years old dad! She wasn't born a vampire, she was a human until three months ago when she was changed!"

There was utter silence for several seconds and then, "Bullshit. Humans can't be turned, they die or become animals."

"We know this dad, we know what normally happens, but she is an exception. We don't know why, she sure as HELL doesn't know why, and just LOOK AT HER! Have you heard of a female vampire that looks like her? Or one that can still go out in the sun?”

There was a longer silence this time and Will pushed on Anna's face gently, "Enough."

She broke away but continued to gyrate .

"You keep that up and I'm going to lay you down on the tile and strip you."

"Oh please," Anna whined, "please do that."

"Oh shit, shit, shit. Dad?" Will called. "Can I bring her out without fear of you hurting her?"

There was a loud exhalation. "Yeah, bring her."

Will carried her into the room and put her on the bed. She immediately flipped over and writhed against the mattress, the need for sex so great it was painful and getting worse. She let out a whimpering noise and it went on and on as she undulated.

Jack stared at her. "How certain are you about this human turned vampire thing?"

"Well let's see," Will said, "when she sprung us from jail her human friends were driving the getaway car, friends she'd had for years, one of them her high school boyfriend in fact. And then there's the fact that she put her hand on my cut and it healed, not a modern vampiress technique from what I know, oh yeah and of course there's the little matter of her human friend Holly who almost fainted when she found out what Anna had become."

Jack absorbed this with a frown. "How and when did it happen?"

"She was in London on vacation and got jacked from a club and brought to a warehouse of horrors. She got out because when she woke up she still had her mind intact and none of the evil fuckers expected it so she crawled into a space and hid until morning. From there she went home. Her mother died a few years ago and her father is a photojournalist currently working in Haiti or something, I've heard her talk to him on the phone several times. Dad, she's a nineteen year old girl who was forceably changed into a vampire. We're certain."

Jack watched her as she continued writhing and making pained sounds, then squeezed his eyes shut and massaged the lids. "Leave the room boys," he said.

"Why? What are you gonna do?" Josh's voice held an edge.

Jack squared off with his sons. "I'm not going to hurt her, I'm going to help her."

"Whoa, wait a minute, she's a virgin dad," Will said.

Jack raised his brows and looked back at Anna's contorting form. "I'm not taking off my clothes, so don't worry about that."

Anna cried out, sounding like a wounded animal.

"I can help her, but you gotta leave unless one of you is romantically involved?" He stared hard at his sons who both shook their heads.

"Good, that's really fucking good. Now get the hell out."

They left reluctantly and Jack approached the bed staring down at her small writhing form. He climbed up next to her and gently grabbed her head forcing her to look at him.

Her gaze was unfocused then it cleared for just a moment, "Please," she whispered desperately.

He stroked the sides of her face and she threw herself at him, kissing him wildly as he slid his hand down into her pants, stroking between her legs. Within minutes she cried out, her whole body wracked with tremors.

Her breathing slowed and her brain came back online, though she wished it hadn't. Jack made me orgasm. I begged him to do it. Shock rolled through her and she kept her eyes squeezed shut, not wanting to see the look of contempt he was sure to be wearing. He despised vampires as it was, and apparently there was an uncontrollable slut factor...a cat in heat factor she mentally corrected. A man like him was certain to be disgusted. She felt a sob welling up and pulled her knees to her chest, hot tears squeezing out of the corners of her eyes.

Jack saw a tear slip down her cheek and realized her mind must have returned. Christ, this whole thing was fucked. How could the Creator let this happen to an innocent young girl? He wrapped his arms around her and pulled her onto his lap, then spoke next to her ear in a soothing tone. "Don't cry sweetheart, it's not your fault. Look at me."

Anna cracked open her eyes and was surprised to see an expression of compassion on his face. It undid her completely and she began to shake, great heaving sobs pouring out of her, and Jack, the man who despised bloodsuckers and was not real fond of her, rocked her like a child.

Still speaking quietly he told her, "We have to get you out of this city before nightfall. I have a cabin in the wilderness of Montana, we'll go there until this passes."

She was still breathing unsteadily and she looked at him in confusion. "Why?"

"You're in heat and every blood...vampire within three hundred miles is going to be attracted to your pheromones. Which is bad enough, but it makes them a little crazy, and if they're denied, sexual lust can quickly turn to bloodlust. And if they're of the condemned variety it could mean a bloodbath."

She sucked in a breath imagining the carnage that she'd witnessed during her transition taking place in the streets of Las Vegas.

Jack pulled out his phone, purchased plane tickets, then called the boys back in and explained his plan.

"For how long?" Will's voice sounded odd and Anna flushed as she realized he knew what had taken place and what would continue occurring in a secluded cabin.

"As far as I know it shouldn't last more than a few days."

"We'll come with you," Josh said determinedly.

“It’s a one room cabin,” Jack stated with an odd inflection.

Anna looked at him then at the guys and shook her head miserably. Whatever was about to happen, she did not want Josh and Will to witness it. "Just Jack," she said quietly, not meeting anyone's eyes.
