“Are you certain,” she said, her accent rolling those Rs.
He was breathing so hard he wasn’t sure he could choke out a reply, so he nodded.  And then, worried that wasn’t enough, he put his hands over hers, pressing her hold into him.
She took over from there, focusing on his jugular, her eyes seeming to light up like stars in the night.  When she closed in, she did it slowly, disappearing the inches between her fangs and his flesh with aching delay.
The brush of her lips was nothing but velvet, except the anticipation of what was to come had him hyper-focusing so everything was magnified.  He knew precisely where she was-
The scrape was viciously soft as she nuzzled him.
Then her hand snaked around to his nape and clamped on, holding him in place so hard, he realized she could snap his neck if she wanted.  
“Oh, God,” he moaned, giving himself over completely.  “Oh-fuck!”
The strike was strong and sure, two points going in deep, the sweet pain robbing him of sight and sound until all he knew was the sucking draw at his vein.
That and the massive orgasm that rolled through his balls and pumped out the head of his cock, his hips jacking up against her as his erection kicked and jerked… and kept going.  
He wasn’t sure how long the release lasted.  Ten seconds?  Ten minutes?  Or was it hours?  All he knew was that with every drawing pull she took from him, he came some more, the pleasure so intense he was ruined by it…
Because he knew he wasn’t going to find this with anyone but her.  Vampire or human.
Palming the back of her head, he pushed her down tighter, holding her to him, not caring whether she drank him dry.  What a way to die-
Too soon, she went to pull away, but he was desperate for her to keep going, and tried to force her to stay at his throat.  It was no contest, though.  She was so strong physically, it was as if he had put up no protest at all.  And didn’t that make him come again.
As overrun as his nervous system was, he still felt the retraction of her fangs from his neck and knew the exact moment she was out of him.  Then the biting pain was replaced with a soft, lapping stroke, as if she were sealing him closed.
Falling into a semi-trance, Manny’s lids lowered and his head lolled on the top of his spine like a deflated balloon.  From out of the corner of his eye, he looked at her perfect profile, the illumination from the monitor giving him plenty o flight to watch her lick her lower lip-
Except it was not the computer.
The screen saver had come on and all that was showing was a black background with a Windows logo.
She was glowing.  All over.  From head to foot.
He guessed they did that, and how… extraordinary.
Except she was frowning.  “Are you alright?  Mayhap I took too much…”
“I’m…” he swallowed.  Twice.  His tongue felt numb in his mouth.  “I am …”
Panic set into her beautiful face.  “Oh, fates, what have I done”
He forced his head upright.  “Payne… the only way it could have been better is if I’d come inside of you.”
She was momentarily relieved.  And then she asked, “What is coming?”
