“Did they find Tim?” I ask him.
“No, but they caught a few humans, they will question them tomorrow,” he says, and I nod before floating away into oblivion.
Chapter 66
Wakingupmyheadwas pounding, like someone stepped on it.
"Wakey wakey!,” Ryker says his voice drilling into my skull.
"Not so loud,” I tell him. Why does my head hurt? I hear him laugh.
"Consequences of drinking,” he says.
Ryker pulls on my arms trying to get me up.
"No, let me sleep,” I tell him, wanting to hide under the blanket till this headache leaves.
"Feed on me and it will go away,” he says, tugging on my arms again.
"Come on, up. You haven't fed in awhile, so get up,” he says, and I groan though the mention of blood had my gums tingling. I sit up feeling the sharp points digging into my bottom lip. I rub my eyes and he sits on the bed tapping his lap. I sluggishly move before standing only to be yanked onto his lap facing him.
He kisses me and I pull away from him, my mouth feeling ridiculously dry and I could still taste orange juice on my tongue.
I rest my head on his shoulder, a little reluctant to feed on him. It had been days and my hunger was a little insatiable now that he mentioned it.
"Reika you need blood, just do it already,” he says, his tone sounding a little angry. When I don't move he drags his nail across his neck where his mark is and I shiver at the sound of his skin tearing.
"Reika!" He says and before running his thumb down his neck before pressing it to my lips, his thumb forcing its way into my mouth. He brushes his thumb over my tongue, his blood touching my tongue so addictively sweet making mouth water and a growl escape my lips. I sink my fangs into him and he jumps before rubbing my back.
"Good girl,” he says, and I feel my bloodlust take over, hunger like never before, making me wonder when the last time I fed actually was. Amanda came forward worriedly.
"Reika stop,” she says but I couldn't, my vision turning red.
"Reika!,” Amanda screams in my head in panic. I feel her force control and I don't resist letting her take over knowing I couldn't control it. My fangs leave his neck and he grabs my face. His eyes slightly glazed over and I felt Amanda withdraw, giving me back control.
"Ryker?" I ask in panic when I see him sway slightly.
"I'm fine, just give me a sec,” he says leaning against me.
I run my fingers through his hair.
"Geez what got into you, he was telling you to stop!,” Amanda snaps at me yet I didn't hear him, couldn't over my own desire to feed.
Ryker seems to regather himself.
"I'm fine Amanda, lay off her,” Ryker says making me look at him.
"You heard her?" He nods before pecking my lips softly.
"Yes, Brax can hear her too now since last night,” he says.
"Yeah, I finally figured out how to drop the barrier blocking us,” Amanda says.
"Probably helped that you were drunk,” she says. I smile knowing they could hear us and us them.
"I'm sorry" I told him.
"Not your fault, I forget you need blood too,” he says, kissing me, and sucking my bottom lip in his mouth. I kiss him back and he groans gripping my hips.
