Then he controlled my movements to be slow and steady. I thought that with me being on top it would put me in the driving seat but because of Draven’s size it meant that I wasn't yet used to this position as I had first thought. However I was still in control...In one way at least. I still wouldn't let his lips touch mine and he looked like a man starved from his addiction. He was craving my lips but I kept moving out of his way and he would growl and groan with agony at being withheld. It however made my pleasure increase.

  “Keira yield to me!” He commanded and I placed my lips near his ear to whisper,

  “No, not till, I… am… ready.” I said slowly and over pronounced. So in return he multiplied the storm that was happening in between my legs. I whipped my head back and he started to bite my neck but stopped himself before he could penetrate the skin.

  “Do it!” I ordered and I could feel the gratified smile on my skin. I could tell he was happy he had regained some control. He stood up suddenly and pulled me tighter into his groin. I screamed back again and his arms that held my waist gripped tighter still not allowing me to leave his size. He walked over to my desk and sat me down, while keeping us securely connected.

  There he took back his control and gave me a very powerful orgasm making me shudder in his arms. I could feel the energy grow inside me. The fire and ice fought each other under my skin. My blood raced around my body as if it was being pumped by two hearts. Draven's and mine. His hand was supporting my neck as I jerked against him. I could feel that he was close too, so I looked up at him and said,

  “Kiss me, kiss me now...” He didn't even wait for the last word to leave my lips before he crushed his own to mine. He came quickly after that, while still kissing me and I felt his crying out inside my mouth. I also came....again. He rested his forehead on mine and I could see his smile. He lifted me over to my bed and lay me down before joining me.

  “That was incredible, Keira. No-one has ever teased me like that before and well you know the out come...it was just...” It wasn't often that you heard Draven lost for words, so this unfinished sentence was the biggest compliment I could have ever received.

  “Ecstasy!” I said before snuggling into my little nook situated under his neck and by his shoulder. He stroked my hair back and kissed the top of my head.

  “Yes… yes it was. Sleep now my little Vixen.”

  I was soon fast asleep and would have loved to say that I dreamt of me and Draven being together but I didn't. Even though in life I belonged to him, this was no longer the case in my dreams. I had lost all control. I belonged to someone else....to another. So I dreamt of Lucius that night and in my dream….

  I belonged to him.

  Chapter 7

  Life Interrupted

  I woke to the lush feeling of a warm naked body next to me and I sighed, I was so happy. The body next to me shifted his weight and then I felt his breath by my ear.

  “Good morning, my little Vixen.” I loved it when he called me this and it was the truth, I was his and there was no getting away from it. I rolled over to face him to see he had clearly been wide awake now for some time. I stretched out and my bones made cracking noises at having to work again. For some odd reason Draven found this amusing.

  “Morning!” Was all I said as I was still shy in the morning. I still expected to wake up and find out it had all been an amazing dream, of course I was always over the moon to find out it hadn't been. I was shy because I knew my hair would be a mess and my breath strong enough to take out large farm animals.

  “You haven't been awake for hours staring at me again have you?” I asked praying he hadn't but his smile confirmed my fears.

  “If you owned a masterpiece, you would spend a long time admiring it, wouldn't you?” He said simply. I hid my head under the covers to hide my shame. I felt the bed move while he laughed.

  “Why are you hiding under there? Are you blushing again because you know that just enhances the picture of beauty?” Oh please let him stop before my cheeks exploded! He got frustrated when I didn't come out, so he made the covers float up to the ceiling using his hands to control them. I was still as naked as he was and he laughed harder when my hands flew out to my private parts.

  “Bring it down!” I shouted as it flattened against my ceiling.

  “You will no longer use it to hide?” He raised an eye to me and I nodded, making my quilt coming waving down until landing first on my feet then to my shoulders.

  “How do you do that?” I asked trying not to sound like a five year old.

  “I use its energy to do my will.” He said but when I frowned, he knew he would have to give me a bit more than that.

  “Everything has energy, even though your eyes can't see, it is still there. Most of my kind can home in on some of these energies and once you get a feel for the right energy, you can use it, move it, break it, do anything you want with it.”

  “So there are some things you can’t...umm...home in on, is that right?” I pulled the covers under my arms and propped up on my elbow as I waited for his answer.

  “Me?... No, there is nothing that I can not home in on but that is only because I have extra gifts. But don't forget I have to be stronger than the rest or there is very little point of me being here. My brother and Sister are the same, they can find any energy but they can't hold onto it for as long as I can.” He said this more as a matter of fact than sounding arrogant.

  “Is that what you did with the cabin?” This memory instantly squared his features into hard lines.

  “It was,” he answered shortly, clearly not liking where my questions were leading.

  “So things that big you can control?” I asked remembering the sight of the cabin that held me, being ripped apart by just Draven’s thoughts.

  “My rage helps increase my powers as it is fuelled by my Demon side which is stronger in aspects of energy control.” He said this so matter of fact it felt a bit like an interview.

  “So there are limits?”

  “It takes a lot of our energy when we use our powers and we need a lot of rest after so much has been used. We need to regenerate the power that has been transferred.” Now I knew why Draven had slept so much the night after the fight with Sammael, it must have worn him out and of course there was the ripping apart of all those Gorgan Leeches to consider.

  “Of course, feeding from humans helps.” This also sounded very matter of fact and if I wasn’t already getting my head around all this supernatural stuff, then running out of the door screaming would have surely accrued.

  “Ok when you say....feed, you do mean, on their emotions...yes?” God I hoped so. He had told me about this before and when I first found out, I went a little crazy. He explained how Angels and Demons both feed from human emotions to get their energy. But some take it to the limit, keeping humans in extra happy or extra depressing states so they can keep absorbing whichever energy they preferred. Draven had also told me how it wasn't always Demons that like the negative energy and Angels that liked the positive. Angels can sometimes be bad and Demons sometimes good. One thing that he made clear though, is how no-one, Demon, Angel or even Draven himself could feed from me.

  “Yes but of course, we do not eat humans Keira, we are not animals!” He sounded insulted but considering the conversation we had last night, could he really blame me? I may have thought this way but I decided to keep my mouth shut on the matter.

  “Umm... while you’re in the answering mood, could I ask another question?”

  “But of course.” Ha, he won't be so forthcoming when he hears it.

  “It's about Lucius.” There it was... the ultimate frown.

  “Keira please, don't you think we have spoken enough about him?”

  “Well it is better for me to be prepared. I know you say he can't get me but I would still like to be well informed, just to be safe.” Ok this wasn't the only reason. After dreaming about him for the second time, I wanted to know if there was something more to his powers than other D
emons because usually when I had drawn what has haunted my dreams, this meant they couldn’t come back. Like being locked out but with Lucius this hadn't happened. I didn't want to tell Draven that I had another dream, especially not one where he had kissed me.

  “What would you like to know?” He said sighing in defeat.

  “Well I know it might be an obvious one but why isn't he called Judas?”

  “Because he was renamed by Lucifer when he was reborn into his new vessel. His name means Light, I think this was the Devil’s idea of a joke, considering his body burnt in the sunlight.”

  “Um, I think my joke, about numbers was better,” I said giggling at how lame of a joke it was but hey I had been telling it since I was six years old. He tickled me, trying once again rather to distract me or get me to snort. Both I resisted.

  “So he doesn't look the same...I mean as he did?”

  “No, his body was beyond healing.” He said flatly.

  “Ok... so does he have any special powers, ‘cause that would be useful to know?” He was growing more aggravated with every question I asked. So I decided to add on a little extra to that question to butter him up.

  “Because I find it hard to believe anyone could be as powerful as you.” It worked cause his frown was replaced with a smile and he kissed me but I kept my mouth shut…(morning breath).

  “Lucius is like most with his powers, although he is an extremely skilled fighter. But what makes him stand above the rest are his powers of manipulation. He can control any mind, Demon, Angel and of course humans are as easy as breathing.”

  “Can he even control you?” I held my breath but Draven’s expression gave me the answer before he spoke.

  “Yes... but the stronger the mind the harder it is, usually he can control many minds at once but with stronger minds, like mine, Vincent and Sophia’s, he can only control one at a time. This makes him more vulnerable when against numbers.”

  “Has he ever done it to you?” I knew I was stepping on thin ice, though I really was boiling over with questions but I also knew he had his limits.

  “Yes once, and he was severely punished, so he won't be forgetting it any time soon!” Ok this was definitely the limit as he was scaring me with his intense staring. I had got the answers that I needed. Now I knew why Lucius was able to access my mind unlike most. It was a terrifying thought!

  Draven was still looking angry so I jumped on top of him and kissed him over everywhere my lips could reach. He liked this and his mood quickly changed so we were soon thinking about other things we could be doing other than talking. But just before he could kiss me fully I clamped my hand over my mouth.

  “Oh no you don't!” I grabbed the throw at the bottom of my bed and got up to wrap myself in it.

  “Where are you going...oh wait... girlie human things again?” I nodded and said,

  “Morning breath.” And he laughed to himself as I walked to the bathroom. I also wanted to check on something else and was more than happy when it hadn't come yet. I brushed my hair and plaited it so it lay down my back. I also got rid of my bad breath and washed my face. I went back in and he hadn't moved an inch. The sight of him made me want to run over to him, just to get there quicker. He was stunning! The morning light from my window made his skin look like golden sand. His hair was wild around his neck and was as black as night. His shoulders looked huge and solid. I wondered how something so hard and powerful could be so soft to the touch. And I might add, very comfortable to sleep on.

  When I was within reach he didn't wait for me to climb back on top of him, he just grabbed me and put me there. The throw was on the floor and the covers only covered the lower parts of our bodies. He was happy and in more ways than one. Oh yes very, very happy...ooh…um. Hello Commander Draven!

  We were just kissing and fooling around when all of a sudden he stopped and held me tighter.

  “Draven what is it?” His face was stone and his head whipped towards the door.

  “There are other humans in the house.” I froze as I heard footsteps on the stairs. Then it happened too quickly for me to react properly, my door opened and I screamed. I wasn't the only one!

  “ARRHHH.....OH my god! Oh shit!.., I'm so sorry, I ..I didn't think...”

  “LIBBY!” I screamed as I fumbled for the sheets to cover us. Draven wasn't any help for laughing! Then it got worse as Frank burst into the room with a baseball bat in hand!

  “What the...OH Shit! OH Man!” He turned around covering his face with his hand and dragged Libby from the room, as she was still apologising. Once they left I could hear them both crack up. I was the only one in the house not laughing as the bed still vibrated from Draven's outburst!

  “I CAN STILL HEAR YOU BOTH OUT THERE!” I shouted angrily, causing the giggling to cease and footsteps to be heard down the stairs.

  I hit Draven on the chest but it didn't have much of an impact, like trying to break rocks with a jelly hammer!

  “What's the use in having so many powers if you can't even prevent that from happening!” I dramatically pointed to the door. I was so ashamed, thank God we weren't actually doing more than kissing, ok we were both naked but it could have been worse.....not by much though.

  “Do you want me to erase their memories?” He asked still being highly amused.

  “You can do that?” I asked being hopeful but Draven just smiled like he was teasing me.

  “I can but I won't, this was far too funny to have missed, for anyone.” And once again it set him off. I got up and got changed quicker than ever before. I didn't want to but I knew I had to go down there first.

  “Stay here!” I warned and he nodded, still with a thick smirk plastered on his handsome face.

  “As you wish, Vixen.” He said, sounding like a genie.

  Libby and Frank were still giggling about it, when I walked in the kitchen.

  “Morning Kaz!” Libby said like it had never happened but it would have been more convincing without the bloody great, big, childish grin she wore plastered all over her face.

  “Stop that!” I said but as soon as Frank went back outside to get their bags from the car, she came over to me and put her arms around me to whisper in my ear.

  “My, my, what a lucky girl you are… oh my!” She pulled back to reveal a huge smile. She of course was referring to the God like figure of a man lying upstairs in MY bed....Damn straight, I was lucky! I couldn't help but finally break down with laughter and lots of snorting! We were both in fits by the time Frank came back in.

  Draven then made his appearance and was shaking Frank’s hand in the hallway.

  “Mr Draven, Sir,... please don’t worry... you’re welcome here.” Frank didn't sound right calling anyone sir but he was obviously intimidated by Draven’s reputation and Draven did send a lot of work his way. His men were hired for the downstairs security at the club.

  “Please Frank call me Dominic and thank you for your hospitality, it was rude of us not to ask if I could stay the night.” Oh come on, we weren't bloody teenagers!

  “That's not a problem. Kazzy doesn't even need to ask.” He said, seeing me in the doorway and he came over to me to give me a bear hug, as it was Frank’s way of saying hello to me. He had always treated me like his little sister and I loved it. But Draven looked frozen at the sight. He was ridged until Frank put me down.

  “Hey Kaz, you miss us?” He said laughing and ruffling my hair.

  “Sure, just wish I knew you were coming back early!” I said through my teeth.

  “Yeah I bet you do!” He said before grabbing all the bags in one hand and running up the stairs with them. Libby came into view and I noticed she had pulled her hair down from the hair band that was holding it up. I had to stifle a giggle.

  “Lib's you remember Dra... I mean Dominic, don't you?” Of course she did, Draven is the most unforgettable man in existence. She came forward and shook his hand that he had extended first.

  “Of course, hello Dominic, how are you?” She said politel
y

  “Very well thank you and I am sorry about you finding me in your home in such an inappropriate manner.” Oh Libby would be loving this, he sounded like Mr Darcy! She was a sucker for Colin Firth.

  “It is fine, really, I guess I just never expected....well, you know. You’re the first boyfriend of Kaz's that I have ever met.” She was fishing for details now, I could tell. I turned to her and gave her a stern eye, which did nothing!

  “Really, that surprises me.” He said while giving me a look as if to say “We will be talking about this later.”

  “Oh yeah, Kazzy rarely dated.”

  “Ok enough of that, there is no need to go into details here,” I snapped and they both laughed. Well it didn't take my sister long to turn to the dark side! When she first heard I was working at the club, she was the first one to tell me things weren't right about the Dravens. Of course she didn't know why, just rumours she had heard. She tried everything in her power to stop me from working there but now it seemed she was more than pleased about the outcome...well that made two of us!

  “Can I get you anything to drink?” She asked putting on her posh voice the way my mother always did when she had company.

  “No thank you.” He replied in his smooth velvet voice and I thought my sister’s legs would give way.

  “Are you sure? Kaz, tea's brewing.” Of course she didn't need to ask me. I usually couldn't function properly in the morning without a cup of tea and my sister knew this. Only from the looks of things, when she had first seen me this morning it must have looked like I was functioning just fine.

  “Ta! So how come you’re home early?” I asked while we moved into the kitchen and Draven held out my seat for me before taking his own. Libby looked like she had just swallowed a bug.
