Romeo and Juliet: A Vampire and Werewolf Love Story (14 page)

I nuzzled my nose down the front of her neck and rest
ed
my head on her bare bosom.
I filled my lungs with the scent of them, of her.
Sweet Juliet!
I was completely under her spell!

Her body was
so petite on top of mine. I laid
her
sweet weight
down
softly
to the right
,
sett
l
ing her gently on the bed next to me and began kissing her passionately.
Her eyes held an intensity and a passion that was all too familiar.

As I kissed her, I began to get light
-
headed
from the raw emotion, and my rising passion, held back for the sake of her offered innocence. She murmured my name like a benediction.
Tears began to drop from my eyes. This was the most perfect moment of my life. This was why I was greeted
Tearse="+0"> by fate’s pull into this sacred abyss
. I was suppose
d
to be here at this moment
,
loving this
woman with all of me. Every speck
of my being
was being poured
into her heart, body and soul.

She sighed softly, a lifetime of want in that sigh, and it was for me.

The clarity of the moment
s
cause
d
each second to go in slow motion.
If I could have stopped time, just to gaze at her endlessly, I would have. But the universe was in motion, slow motion, but it surely elapsing, nevertheless. How long did we have tonight? We could not know…so, I wanted to make every second count.

We continued to kiss as our bodies got more and more entangled, limbs twisting together like honeysuckle vines. Our clothes were making their way off, as if they were disintegrating of their own volition. Oh, if she had cast a spell on me, I did not care. I was hers to possess!

“Romeo,” she breathed my name into my ear, from an inch away, and it sent a thrill through me as my desire rose for her and she moved her hand to my thigh, shyly. I was in heaven.

She was beautiful beyond words, beyond breath, beyond moonlight, her skin luminescent under my gaze, near-glowing in the soft night of wonder that unrolled as a gift to me, from her.

A part of me didn’t want to go further. Up to this point, I just wanted to experience her. Anything past this point was beyond my understanding. I really didn’t know how to proceed. It was almost incomprehensible to me to take her innocence, to ravish her, in essence, to ruin her in the desire to satisfy myself.

“I want to be with you, Romeo.”

“Are you sure?” I asked.

“I want to experience all of you.”
Juliet looked up at me
, a
sincere twinkle in her eye. Her hand moved closer down my stomach. Then stopped as she waited for me to say yes.

I let out a long breath, indecision moving toward certainty. I looked into her eyes and kissed her passionately.
Then our bodies told the story. For every touch, kiss,
and embrace
she gave me, I returned
it
to her tenfold.
It rang in my head, what I was, what I am, what I shall be, with her: A
giver
of pleasure, not a
taker
of the same.

I stared into her eyes as my hips position
ed
themselves, between her
legs, pressing against her flesh.
I leaned down and said, “
Juliet, t
his is my first time.”

“It is mine
,
too,” Juliet answered
softly
.
Her face held an expression of the serenity of her perfect trust in me.

I decided that we would need more room for this endeavor than this king-sized bed. I pulled the bounty of expensive goose-down pillows from the bed to the floor and her eyes followed them in understanding.

I slid from the bed and took her with me She closed her eyes tightly, waiting, tense and was sweetly shocked when instead of piercing her without preamble, I lowered my head to her flesh and coveted it, honored it with my lips. I began at her forehead and moved downward to her eyelids, and her cheeks, the tip of her nose, her lips, her neck.

She relaxed under me, arching toward my lips and sighing in pleasure. I worshiped her beauty at the very fount, drinking her as she sighed deeply and laced her hands in my hair, pulling gently. When her breath began to come in small shudders, I changed our positions, rolling us over, so that she was on top of me, pressed to me. I stopped.

“What is wrong?” she panted.

“Juliet. You must give yourself to me completely. You must
give
it if you want me on this night. If you do, it will seal us, for eternity, that you willingly gave me
all
of yourself.”

She nodded her eyes misted with desire. “Yes, I do,” she replied, understanding.

And so, I let her decide the moment when we would be one. I held her sweet weight in my arms and when she did give herself, it was with sheer joy on her face and my name on her lips.

As one, we kissed one another a thousand times, and her tears of gladness, I drank them with my tongue and lips.

This was the most amazing act
of love
I could have ever imagined
sharing
.
As surely as time unfurling, we became a part of each other, for all time…

When we were done,
I rolled over and lay next to Juliet on the wooden floor of her bedroom
, resting her body on all of the goose down pillows, an altar for her comfort
.
When her breath came slower and she came back to me, she smiled in wonder.

I kissed her smooth forehead. “Hello, Juliet. Welcome to
Us
.”

“Hello, Romeo.” Words escaped her at that point and she just glowed with happiness.< ch h Wo/font>


We can make a difference,

I said
,
t
urning my head to look Juliet in the eyes.
“Not just to ourselves, but to all the vampires and werewolves who come after us on this journey toward uniting the immortals in peace. It is not just about us. It is for all the world, Juliet. We are the first. The first of many.”

“I hope you

re right.”

“This thing that is going on between us is bigger than even us. It can change people

s hearts. Have them look through different
-
color eyes and see people as equals
,
regardless of anything outside their character
, their species…

Juliet then continued right where I left off
,
looking into my eyes
, with love,

What is in our hea
rts could be manifested through
out Verona.
A manifesto of unconditional love. A proclamation of its possibilities.”

“If it was just that easy,”
I said
,
r
ealizing
at
about the same moment
that
Juliet did that the idea was
bordering on
ridiculous.
I began to come back to reality. This next act of ours would be much tougher than a virgin werewolf making love with a virgin vampire.

“It can start with us,” Juliet said.
“We’ll plant a seed.” She giggled at the irony of the word. I smiled. She had a long funny bone, my Juliet did.

I said,
“We can
announce to all our love. We could properly introduce ourselves to each other’s families and start from there.”

“It needs to be big. My family only reacts to large displays of affection. An announcement as big as this needs a party.”

“A party?” I laughed. “After what happened the last time? It was a near-fatal debacle.”

“It needs something else.” She moved her eyebrows together, thinking, and, for long moments, I did the same.

I saw what this meant to Juliet and that moved my heart. “Okay, here is what we can do. We’ll throw two parti crown>

“It sounds perfect,” she cried out in delight. “Yes!”

I kissed Juliet on her forehead and I lay with her all the way until morning, making my arms her tender home, one that she would crave always.

In the gray pre-dawn, I got up to pull the curtains tight for my vampire lover. She said that her house began to get up around 6
:00 a.m., so I split out of there around 5:30. I had no idea what vampires did during the day, except to shut themselves away from sunlight. I had places to go and things to do. For our future.

Once again, I made it home without being seen. I had a couple of parties to plan. They had to be grand. This event would be for posterity. The unfolding legacy of Romeo and Juliet was about to go public.

 

 

Chapter Eleven

 

 

The next day, I slept all day and as I was waking up, I had one last glorious dream. I dreamt of my special place. This time I was not alone there. I had Juliet by my side.

You see, my special place isn’t of this world. It was never a matter of the actual location. It was who I was with. As long as we are together, we can be anywhere. Anywhere is my special place, as long as I’m with Juliet.

After I woke up, I decided to put together a party that would be for the day after tomorrow over in Central Park. Central Park was also a neutral location for both families. I decided to keep it on the down low with everyone; the human servants I could trust. Which was about all of them. I had some human servants that knew people in the Capulet’s camp and they helped me set up a party on behalf of Juliet for her family. The tricky part was keeping the families separated. The two party tents were only going to be about fifty feet apart. So security was going to be a big deal. I had to dip into Daddy’s credit card. I’d deal with the repercussions at another time, when he saw the bill.

When I was finishing setting everything up, it was close to 11:00. It was a lot earlier than I normally go but I was needing to see her badly. I did the usual subway to taxi route. I hopped the fence and I began approaching Juliet’s neighborhood carefully because I could hear people talking.
As I approach
ed
the street to Juliet

s house
,
I heard a commotion ahead
.
I quickly turned into my werewolf form and climbed up the first tree I saw.
Luckily, the first tree was an
extremely large one
.
From the t fh h What kree top, I could see a large group of Capulet
s
in the street
,
gathered around Juliet

s home.
