lips. The Englishwoman was unaware as she continued pleasuring Leigh.
    In a flash that left Nina and the young woman gasping, Leigh had the woman on her back. She entered her and thrust hard while the woman cried out and arched her back. In the throes of an orgasm, the woman had no idea her life was about to end.
    Leigh roughly pushed the woman’s hair away from her neck and yanked her head to one side. She looked at Nina for one second, opened her mouth exposing her fangs, then plunged them into the woman’s neck.
    The woman cried out and thrashed for a moment, then was still. Nina was transfixed as Leigh, never looking up as she fed, raised her hand and beckoned Nina from the shadows.
    On numb shaking legs, Nina walked to the bed and noticed the lifeless eyes of the woman; she died completely sated and stunned. Leigh pulled back and licked the blood from her lips.
    Nina leaned in and kissed her, tasting the coppery fluid. Leigh pulled back and glanced down at the woman beneath her, then back to Nina, who knew exactly what Leigh required of her. Nina crawled onto the bed, staring at the blood that trickled out of the puncture wounds on her neck. She lowered her mouth to the wound; she shivered when she felt Leigh’s hand caressing her hair as she sucked from the open wound.
    “That’s it, my darling Nina. One step closer to eternity,” Leigh cooed.
    Nina pulled back and licked her lips. “I want it all, Leigh. Now,” she said hastily.
    Leigh raised an eyebrow. “Do you, my pet?” She glanced down at the corpse on the bed. “The conditions are not the best right now, my darling. It’s a little crowded here and—”
    “Please!” Nina begged. “I want eternity now.”
    Leigh offered a challenging look and laughed. “Be very careful what you ask for, Nina darling.” She slid the corpse off the bed and lay back against the pillows.
    Nina could not take her eyes off her blood-stained lips. She disrobed and flew into Leigh’s arms.
    Leigh let out a delightful laugh. “What? No romance?” she asked as Nina kissed her again.
    Leigh lay back and held Nina at arm’s length. “Watch, my pet.”
    Nina knelt next to her and watched as Leigh placed her little finger against her breast. Her long nail pierced the skin at the top of her breast as she sliced open a small wound.
    “Drink from me, Nina, and know eternity,” she said in a low commanding voice. “You will be sired by Leigh. I will teach you wondrous things, and you will be mine.”
    Nina lowered her head, her mouth inches away from eternity. Leigh stopped her and pulled Nina’s long hair away from her neck and caressed the throbbing vein. “So soft,” Leigh sighed. “I will feast, as well, my pet. I will bring you eternity.”
    She urged Nina lower and closed her eyes. Nina heard her moan when she suckled against Leigh’s breast. The rush was uncontrollable as she ravenously licked and sucked the blood from Leigh.
    Suddenly, the blood raced through her veins; it felt like hot lava flowing through her entire body, which trembled as she continued.
    In the next instant, she was on her back, looking up at Leigh, who was looming over her and grinning evilly. With her chest still bleeding, she pulled at Nina to continue. Leigh lowered her body, and Nina, lost in her lust for this vampire, drank once again. She cried out again when Leigh entered her, thrusting deeply. Her body jerked from the force but still she fed from Leigh.
    “Come for me, my pet,” Leigh said in a commanding voice.
    Nina came then with such force, she screamed out, pulling her head away from Leigh’s breast, trying to suck in as much air as she could.
    As her orgasm raged through her, she heard Leigh’s laughter before she passed out, completely spent.
    Eternity was hers.
    Nina smiled evilly. “Oh, what a time we had, Leigh,” she said into the darkness.
    She made her way back to her captive detective. They had a plane to catch.
