HDP FLash Fiction

A Little Out of the Swing
By Deveena Wood
The old farmhouse Georgia called home wasn’t much to look at. It was run down and the clap boards were either falling off or completely discolored. She didn’t buy it for its beauty. The thing that drove her to get a mortgage for the first time in her life was the porch swing. Her friends thought she was nuts. Why would a thirty year old woman want this old farmhouse in the middle of nowhere? She knew why but would never tell any of them.
She sat on the swing in one of her light weight summer dresses. One of her bare feet was tucked up under her as the other pushed the swing. She brought a glass of tea up to her cherry red lips. The wind was moving just enough to blow her raven hair off of her shoulders. The sparkle in her violet eyes was there for a reason. The sun had gone down only a few minutes ago. She waited patiently for it and now she waited patiently for him.  Her mouth parted as the sound of wings caught in her ear. It was him. Finally.
She put her feet flat on the floor. She knew he didn’t like her seeing him this way. His bat form never bothered her, but it was something he didn’t like to share. She felt the rush of his transformation then his hands on her shoulders. They were cold and hard, but it didn’t bother her. The connection of their skin made her get wet.
“You look lovely, Georgia.” His voice was smooth like silk. She leaned over and kissed the top of his hand on her shoulder.
“Will you sit with me?” she asked quietly.
He didn’t answer her with words. He shifted his weight smoothly then joined her on the porch swing. She kept her eyes down not looking into his face. She noticed his soft black pants and white silk shirt. It was open at the collar. He sat beside her and grabbed her hand. He brought it up to his mouth and kissed it gently. His fangs barely grazed her skin. The sensation they caused seemed to shoot right to her hot core. She already wanted him. Feeling them made her nearly crazed for his touch.
They sat their silently swinging for a few minutes. She wasn’t sure what to offer him. Her proper up bringing drove her to offer him something, but what did he like?
“Would you care for some tea?” she finally questioned.
“No, thank you.”
Back to silence. She decided to venture a look at his face. Sure she had seen it many times in her dreams, but he was sitting beside her now. She turned slowly catching the strong chin in her eye first. Then moving her eyes up she saw his fierce blue ones and then his dark brown hair. He was handsome. Very.  He must have felt her looking. His eyes were locked onto hers seconds later.   She struggled to control herself. She wanted to throw herself on his lap and kiss him passionately. You couldn’t do that with him. He came to her so often in her dreams she just knew she had to wait for him to make the first move.
“I want you too,” he finally said.
“My room is up stairs.” She couldn’t think of anything else to say. His blatant admission stunned her to her core.
He put his arm around her and then the world started to shift. When the world stopped spinning she realized they were in her bedroom. Though it didn’t look the same. The walls weren’t grungy and old. There were beautiful paintings and the furniture was all fancy. It looked like something straight out of Versailles. Then she looked down. Her summer dress was gone. It was replaced by a purple slightly sheer nighty. She felt a little embarrassed and covered herself.
“Have you not already given yourself to me?” he asked.
“In my dreams. This is real.” She shivered as she spoke. He stood from the bed and then candles suddenly ignited in the room.
“If you wish to change your mind I will understand.” His countenance was sad. She hadn’t meant to hurt him. This was just way more than she had bargained for.
“I still want to be with you,” she said removing her hands from her body so he could see her. His face lit up at the sight.
“Lay back,” he commanded.
“Wait. I don’t even know your name,” she said before she followed his instruction. He waved his hand over her and her body had to obey. She lay back on the bed as he climbed up between her legs. His scent was captured in her nose. It made her desire for him bloom even more.
When he reached her throat he whispered in her ear, “My name is Christian.” Then she felt his fangs bury deep in her neck. The pain was exquisite. She couldn’t help but latch on to him as he pulled her blood into his mouth. She felt his stiff erection against the inside of her thigh. She wanted it inside her. He pulled away from her neck then looked into her eyes.
“Georgia, you can still change your mind. It isn’t too late.” His face was sad and longing. She wanted this, wanted to be a part of his world. She pulled him down to her. He knew what she wanted and scored a line on his neck. His blood was sweet and seemed to fill a need deep inside of her. She drank greedily until she felt him invade her body. Their bonding now complete she would never again look at the world through human eyes. Needing to feel him she wrapped her legs around him tightly encouraging him to devour her body. When he let go inside of her she cried out.

“Yes Christian, I will be yours forever!”http://www.hornydevilpublishing.com/Flash.Fiction

Blood Cast Teaser

“Feel what?”
“For a woman who has carried six children, you really don’t know your own body.” He laughed loudly in my ear. It took me a second to process what was just said to me.
“Do you really think that is what they meant?” I asked when my brain finally wrapped around the information.
“What else would explain the changes in your body?”
“Menopause, weight retention, or hormone issues?”
“Don’t be silly. You know your body better than anyone. Can you honestly say there is nothing going on?” He was still looking at me with such love in the mirror. My heart was singing his name while my head was screaming. I still had so many questions and zero answers. I really didn’t even know what it was I was carrying inside me.
“I suppose you could be right, but what if I’m just messed up?”
“Do you think the sisters would come visit you if that were the case?”
“No.”
“You can consult the book. She will have an answer for you.” His suggestion was one that had escaped me all together. I hadn’t even entertained looking. I haven’t needed her wisdom in a few years. I’m sure she will be angry with me, but it’s a chance that needs to be taken. Grabbing his hand, we walked together toward the study. My night gown was long and thick, so embarrassment wouldn’t be a problem. Normally I slept naked. Conveniently the cold required me to cover up last night.
I walk over to her glass case and wave my hand over the top. The lock drops off and she shifts to white. Her shimmer is slow to appear. This reminds me of her detest at being kept locked away so long. I stroke her cover and speak to her lovingingly.
“Leabhar, I have missed you.”  She takes a moment then starts to shimmer. I take a seat and put her in my lap. Putting my hands over her, I wait for the pages to go. The skim quickly. When they stop the words are slow to appear on the page. I struggle to read them.
The winds that blow from the east have sent to you a……..
