Marina the Vampire by Catherine Burton (essential reading TXT) 📖

it if you would stay with me at Heather’s house,” I answer.
“It would be my pleasure to stay with you for as long as you need me,” he answers.
I walk over to him and hug him. Vladimir hugs me back, a little hard but not too hard. I lean back a little so that I can see his face. He leans forward and kisses my lips. I kiss back and we start to make out. He gently falls to the floor and I am on top of him. We continue to kiss and I don’t want this to end. Then Vladimir takes off his shirt and tries to take off my dress, I let him. I then take off his pants and we are down to our underwear, I also have my bra on.
“Vladimir, I would usually say to stop now and I will. We can continue this later, okay?” I say when he tries to get my bra off.
“I’ll take you to my hotel room if that would be alright with you. I was going to stay for a night then leave so I have a master suite for myself and we can go there,” Vladimir replies. I nod my head and we get dressed. I already have an excuse why I would go with him rather than go with the others.
“Hay, guys I am going to Vladimir’s place overnight because he wants to be with me for one more night. He has a spacious room with two king sized beds,” I say to the others. I put in the bed thing so that Ryan won’t think we are going to do what we really are.
“Makes since that he would want to watch you for as long as he can,” Ryan replies. I walk to the car that Vladimir and I take to get to his place. My bag is already in the car and we are off.

Chapter 16

We arrive and check in. I hop on the elevator and recognize where we are. I ask, “Vladimir, is this the hotel the meeting was at?”
“Yes, it is. They allowed all the representatives and guards to stay here for one day and this is day one for me staying here,” Vladimir replies.
We arrive at the top floor and got to his room. He gets the key to the room and opens the door. He puts my luggage on the floor. I walk in and I see that the room in very large and spacious. The bed is really big and looks soft. I go over to it and check it out. It feels so good and I barely notice that Vladimir is on the bed too. He is naked and he looks good. Vladimir asks as he jesters to my body, “May I help you with that?”
“Sure,” I reply. He pulls off my dress and undoes my bra. He starts feeling my body. Then he takes off my underwear and he really starts to have sex with me. I groan out in pure enjoyment and I open my eyes and he kisses me hard. I kiss back and he starts French kissing me. I kiss him back and we continue for four more hours.
“Wait, do you hear that?” Vladimir whispers in my ear. I hear breathing so I nod. I go over to the closet and get one of the complementary robes to put on. I walk to the balcony and see Ryan, shit he saw us. I open the door, go out, and shut the door behind me.
“How much did you see?” I ask looking down.
“Just enough, if you want to cheat on me you should at least be someone that I did not see about five hours ago. So, are you two a couple or what?” he replies.
“It was just a onetime thing. I don’t even know why I did that, please forgive me. I can’t go on knowing that you hate me,” I reply and I start to cry.
“Mar, it will take me some time to forgive him but you I can forgive now,” Ryan replies and comes over to hug me. I hug him before he even gets close to me. We are intruded by Vladimir then. I think he put on the other robe and came out to check on me.
“Ma’am is he bothering you?” Vladimir asks as I start to walk to him. I feel his presence in me, he is controlling me and I can’t fight it. He is too strong and now I realize he did this to get me in bed with him earlier. I am next to him and he and I kiss. I can’t control myself, I am his puppet and he pulls the strings and tells me what to say.
“Ryan you should go now,” Vladimir makes me say and it sounds like I really did say and mean it too.
“What are you saying I thought that you two were not together? You just told me to go and I am confused on what you are saying,” Ryan asks.
I want to say that Vladimir is controlling me but he makes me say, “I don’t like you and I want you to leave Vladimir and me alone. I love him, not you. I never want to… stop!” I got some control back but for just a second.
“What she means is she…,” Vladimir starts to say but I interrupt him.
“No! Vladimir I am not,” I start to say but I am controlled again and he makes me continue. “Not in love… with you Vladimir. I hate you,” I got control and finished.
“Mar, what the hell is going on?” Ryan asks.
“Help me!” I exclaim. I start to scream but Vladimir covers my mouth. He takes me back to the room and Ryan follows. I smell blood, mine and a lot too! I look down and Vladimir has a knife in my chest. My eyes change and before Ryan can see I look at Vladimir. I say, “Let me go.” He does as I told him. I remove the knife and start healing instantly. Ryan goes between me and Vladimir. Vladimir takes out a knife and he might be trying to hurt Ryan. I get up and walk in front of Ryan. With the other knife in my hand I am ready to fight but when I look into Vladimir’s eyes he freezes. He is being controlled by someone stronger than him and I must know this person because I feel like I do. “Show yourself cowered,” I yell. I hear someone on the balcony and I turn to see a man about my age in appearance. He has silver eyes like me and I also sense two others behind him.
“Camsie, my beloved sister, it that really you?” the man asks.

Chapter 17

“Who are you and why did you call me your sister?” I ask.
“Don’t you remember your family?” he asks in reply. My family is dead and has been. No, I remember I changed them and they had the same eyes as me. But I saw them die; I was the only survivor of that murder.
“Javier, is that you and mother and father?” I ask. I almost start crying.
“Yes, and we have been searching for you since that day when we were captured. We did not die but we were in pretty bad conditions,” Javier answers as my parents came into the room. My mother, Maia, has curly brown hair and has a skinny body like mine. My father, Levin, has brown hair too and has a muscular build. Javier is twenty-five in appearance. He has dark brown hair like me and has a muscular build more than my father. Javier and my hair color which was given to us by our grandparents. I am the youngest of the family and I am glad that I am, too.
“Mother, father, Javier I missed you all,” I say as I ran over to them for a hug. I am so happy they are here with me now. When we are done hugging I punch Javier on the arm.
“Ow! What was that for?” he asks
“For controlling my friend and me,” I answer.
“Ya, I’m sorry about that. I just did not know what else to do,” Javier replies.
“Alright I forgive you,” I say. I look over at Vladimir and say, “I know that that was not you so it is alright between us.”
“Thank-you so much madam Camsie for forgiving me,” Vladimir says. I nod and remember what I am wearing.
“May Vladimir and I have some privacy so we can get changed,” I say. Everyone leaves and Vladimir and I get dressed in silence.
“I hope that you will still allow me to be your guard?” Vladimir asks.
“Vladimir, please do not even think that that will make me want to get rid of you. I love you and I think that the only way that you would not be my guard is if one of us were to die. I only hope that you are going to stay with me. That thing about staying with me is still out for grabs. I hope you stay. I know that you are alone when you go home so I want you to come with me, please,” I say
“How do you know that? I thought that I was the only one that knew that,” Vladimir replies.
“I followed you to your house one time that is how I know that you go to an empty home. I only do that to the people that I am worried about. You would never tell me anything about yourself even when we were dating. What happened? I know that you changed your mother and father,” I say. Vladimir and I are both done changing. Vladimir gestures to the floor and he sits down. I sit down across from him.
“My parents were murdered by vampire slayers many years ago. I was only one year old, as a vampire, and I just got home when I saw four humans standing over my parent’s slaughtered bodies. The people looked at me and said ‘You are next’ and then they left,” Vladimir says to me.
“I am so sorry. Have you ever seen them after that?” I ask.
“No, gladly I have not seen any slayers since that day,” Vladimir replies.
“Well, if you do know you know that you have people to back you up,” I say.
“Yes, I will have help now if they do show up. I will stay at your house for as long as you need me,” Vladimir says. Vladimir and I hug, get up, get our bags, and head for the door. I hug Ryan and my parents. Ryan and I head down the hallway to the elevator. My parents, Vladimir, and Javier follow behind us. The elevator arrives in a minute and we all step in. Ryan presses the button that takes you to the lobby, the door shuts, and the elevator starts moving.
“So, will you all stay at Heather’s place for the rest of your time here?” I ask.
“Yes we will stay for as long as we would like, if that is okay with you,” my mother replies.
“That is more than okay, it is something that I have always dreamed of,” I say. The elevator stops at the lobby floor and the door opens. We walk out and head for the front entrance and Vladimir calls for a car. It comes in ten minutes and head in. We are on the way home.

Chapter 18

We arrive at home and Heather is already at the front porch. “Hay, Heather,” I say once I am out of the car. Heather waves to me and I smile. “Heather, this is
