~~Welcome to the world of Vampire: the Requiem~~
~~One week later~~
~~Jack~~
Avery could wait a little while. Everything could wait a little while. He needed a vacation, and god damn it, he deserved it.
He spent the next week doing one thing: spending more time with the Prince of Dolareido. Every night had included sex, but since he was sleeping at her place now, and on vacation, every night now also included time to chat. Sit around and talk about music and movies and stories and whatnot, was a luxury he realized she probably rarely had with other Kindred. The only vampire she'd get to talk to so easily and frequently was Daniel or Natasha, especially now that Natasha was also staying at the Elysium tower. But he doubted talking to those two was terribly satisfying. With him though, he could see, she wanted to talk more, and more.
Now, spending day after day in bed together, Antoinette had time to chat with him before dusk and after dawn, those twenty or thirty minutes she spent getting dressed and doing her make-up, time they could talk. They could get a lot of talking in when they were around each other for the minutiae of everyday stuff. And when she was upstairs, either higher in the basement, in her research alcoves doing god knows what, or higher again up in the tower, doing Princely things, he spent his time relaxing, reading, listening to music, swimming, and other recreation activities her surprisingly robust underground fortress provided. She still had a dozen enormous rooms down here he hadn't even seen yet. But they could wait. Right now, his mind was on the woman on top of him.
Antoinette sighed, a long, satisfied sigh, and lowered herself back onto him. Softness. Weight. The best place in the world, underneath Antoinette's breasts. She was riding him, milking him, his cum pouring into her insides as she squeezed his length. Her juices coated him, bathed him in the heavenly heat, until his white, thick fluids were flowing back down his length. And as his orgasm turned him into a shivering, relaxed, defeated noodle of a man, Antoinette rested her breasts on his lips, bending over so her nipples grazed along his chin and nose. At least until he opened his mouth, and began to suckle on one of them.
She shivered, smiled down at him, and set one hand on his head to lightly tease and stroke his buzzed hair while he kissed her swollen, puffy, pink areola.
"My sweet little Ventrue, and now one of the right hands of the Invictus. I admit, I did not expect this, but I should have. Julias knows of your true accomplishments, and I am sure he would have found a way to reward you for them." Slowly, with a teasing twist of her hips, she slid herself up and off of his shaft, and sat upon his pelvis. His softening member dripped of their fluids, warm, inviting him to melt beneath her breasts and into the blankets of her bed.
His boss knowing about Lucas, Viktor, and Tony was a feather in his cap, that was for sure. Not necessarily a good feather though, more like an albatross feather, since all these fucking insanities kept falling into his lap, and he kept having to claw his way out from under them.
"I can see that look in your eye, a look of worry." She tapped a finger on his forehead, drew lines he couldn't see, and started to caress his head once more. God yes, fingers pushing against the grain of his eternally buzzed hair was euphoric, forcing him to melt and succumb to her touch.
His lips drifted away from her nipple, and planted kisses along her breast's underside, causing its size to spill over his nose and upper half of his face, hiding his forehead. But, she could still caress his hair, and she did as she offered him quiet little, husky mewls and chuckles, while he planted another kiss, and another along the heavy, soft skin of where her breasts met her ribs.
"It's a big responsibility," he said. "And I... I'm never comfortable with new things. I like to research things to death before I put my feet in."
"Admirable, but paralyzing. You will forever be more intelligent than others, and yet forever denying yourself the joys others find by trying new things at the whim of the moment. You must learn to be comfortable with being uncomfortable, my love." She adjusted her torso angle so his face slipped between her breasts, and she slid back her knees so she could lay on him and bury him with her body. A kiss. Another kiss. She grinned a devil's grin as she pecked him on the nose a few times, all while one of her hands continued to massage his scalp and play with his hair, elbows to the sheets.
"I think I've heard that expression before."
"No doubt."
"I think the dude was trying to explain the psychological benefits of cold showers."
Antoinette shivered and shook her head. "Non merci. Without the subtle, blissful sting of a hot water, I fear I would never touch a shower again."
The Prince of Dolareido did not like cold showers? Too cute. He laughed, and she caught his lips between a finger and thumb with her free hand.
"I uh, well we are vampires," he said, voice mumbling through her grip on his lips. "We don't really need to shower." No body odor issues, and any grime and build up of crap sort of just fell off as a Kindred slept. Unless they were blushing life, they had no skin oil or anything. Maybe they shed a layer of their skin off as ash at night?
Antoinette slipped her hands down to his, netted her fingers with his, and raised his hands until they were pinned against the sheets by his head, over it. With a warm laugh, she set her lips to his neck, and continued to kiss him, slow, tender, her long white hair tickling over his chin and lips as she gently slid her roaming mouth from one end of the collar bone to the other. Lying on him like this, her breasts squished to his chest and out to the sides, like big pillows. And her feet reached far past his own, her knees along the outside of his shins and pressing his legs together.
"All Kindred are to now keep a partner with them, whenever moving through areas not directly next to their headquarters," she said, nudging her nose into his chin. "I trust you will move with your fellow right hands mostly?"
