Remembering my vampire husband.

Tw2nty2. My little Starling bird

Orcas

I saw the shock in my new wife's eyes.

She was very upset about this whole event.

I don't blame her, but it's the way of our community, we do things to the hilt, we do have drama, we seem to thrive on it.

Still to see her like a wounded little Starling bird was painful to my heart.

When Rena bared Kennedy's breasts to the whole gala, I knew I had to act fast. I didn't know she had come as Robby's guest.

I had planned to reveal our returned relics at the gala, but I literally ran to the stage to prevent my new wife from getting torn to pieces.

My anger at my sister was boiling over, seeing how she ridiculed Kennedy, I was close to attacking her for that, but Robby was there, I restrained myself.

Now, here she was looking feverish and small.

That bite mark in her poor shoulder, made my stomach drop, I hurt her, my sweet girl, I did that to her.

Yet, she didn't complain, nor accuse me of hurting her, she just took it on herself.

I'm now afraid to touch her, I find it hard to control my wolf when I'm intimate with her, I will abstain.

She needs my protection, even if it's from my own passions.

" Orcas, my, my,my sister, she spit in my face. She, she hates me now. I need to g g go home, I can't just sit here and p p pretend.

I'm so upset Orcas, p p please husband, let Robbie take me out of here, I beg you."

Now she had eyes full of tears. So she wasn't upset with what Rena had done to her, she was only upset with the loss of June bug.

I'm relieved that Lucas Moore made that error in turning June, instead of Kennedy. For once I was eternally grateful to a vampire.

I pulled her in closer.

" Shhh...a little longer my love, I need them to see that you are not afraid, that you are so very strong. I want to give you something now."

I put a pill between her teeth, it was for anxiety. I got a prescription for them when I lost Serena. It help me not go berserk.

" I I I d d d don't take drugs."

She was biting that pill in between her front teeth.

Robby held a glass of red wine to her lips.

" Uncle Orcas knows best for you." He smiled, his warm dimples were lit up on his face.

She nodded and held his hand.

I saw then that these two had a thing together. Maybe they understood eachother.

I was proud of my nephew for protecting my little Red. He will be a good man.

*********

An hour later, Kennedy was slow dancing in my arms, I had to hold her up. She wore my suit jacket buttoned up over her torn dress.

She whispered to me,"Let's take a break on the veranda, please."

I picked her up, her legs were jello and I carried her outside.

People stared at us with hate in their eyes, I didn't care.

We were finally alone. The music carried to the balcony, I saw the stars above and how utterly gorgeous my new wife looked.

" Dance with me wife." I touched her cheek, it was bruised by damn Rena.

" Kiss me please." She countered, said smiling up at me.

Her eyes were glassy, she looked stoned, but still it was better than the wounded bird an hour ago.

I slanted my mouth over hers. She was receptive, her mouth was warm and wet and tasted of sweet red wine.

I held her waist tightly.

" Orcas, can you squeeze me and bite me just a little softer love." She said as she felt my firm excitement growing up against her.

I tried to pull away from her, I felt embarrassed that she knew I was capable of hurting her like that.

She shook her curly red head, those curls looked wild and crazy, I loved them.

As I backed away, she stalked me.

" No, you don't pull away from me." She took my suit jacket off.

" Not from your wife, nor my body."

I swallowed hard seeing her white flesh in contrast to her vibrant red hair that hung over her breasts to her naval.

She removed the loose fabric of the remainder of dress and ran to me in her undergarments.

I caught her and kissed her again.

This time she moved over me with loose abandon. I took her behind the long red drapes, I needed this now.

I lifted her knee and pushed her firmly against the wall and pressed against her womanhood.

She was ready, so deliciously ready to receive me.

Her head flew back, I lost all of my senses as we made love right there at the gala.

I bit her again, but did not leave a mark. She bit me back, not breaking my skin.

" Ouch!" I cried.

She pulled away quickly.

" I'm so sorry, did I hurt you?"

I shook my head and smiled at her concerned face.

" I can take it little Red." I assured her, I wanted to finish this.

It was almost more painful when she pulled away from me.

I saw her relax. She gently kissed my chest where she had bitten me, she looked at my chest a bit more closely.

" Huh, Clover has this hair pattern on his chest, just like you husband."

She circled each white clover patch of hair.

"This is a family trait, I believe. My father also has a similar pattern."

Just at that moment I heard a growl behind me.

I poked my head out of the long curtain as I shielded my wife's body from view. Our little hidden love nest.

" You are needed on the stage for the auction brother." Rena was visibly angry.

My stoned wife poked her head around my shoulder and said, "He will be right there, no need to kill."

I was still firmly against her as she was pressed to the wall. Well, semi firmly now, to tell the truth.

Rena advanced towards Kennedy growling and baring her teeth.

Kennedy didn't stutter not one bit when she said to my sister,"Hurt my man and I will come after you and kill you, I swear it's true."

I grinned at Rena as she moved back, hearing my little wife's words, my smart, brave little bird of a wife.

I know that Rena believed her to be a witch and part of her was actually afraid to tangle with one that could cast curses and such.

Not my little Red though, she was only full of bravery, kindness, selflessness and for some weird reason, love for a mean Lycan like me.

I wanted to tell her my secret, that I was infact her wolf, Clover, but things were already fragile right now.

I hoped in time, when we had a few children, maybe she would be able to understand me.

She pulled my chin her direction.

" Go ahead squeeze me now love." She grinned.

I shook my head," I'm trying not to do that to you. I swear I don't do it on purpose."

Kennedy hugged me very tightly.

" You go do your action, we can make love later. I think we both know that this is not the right time, or place."

She hugged me so tightly I could barely breath.

" Orcas, I will go home with Robby now, if that's okay with you?"

I nodded. "You rest, I will come to you afterward. I need to speak with your father, he might be a bit upset."

Kennedy shook her head. " He's probably drunk by now, he won't give a rats ass. He just wants to die and be with momma. I did too for a while, but Orcas, life is beautiful, and precious, and fragile. I have a reason to live now, you my love, you are the reason."

I watched her blush. I kissed her again.

" Are you sure you are not a witch, you have beguiled me thoroughly."
