Chapter 14 - What Happens In Vegas ...
Luci enjoyed the plane ride to Las Vegas more than any other she had been on. After they had taken off, she and Xavier were served the food he had ordered. He even ensured that she had some blood to keep her energy up.
After they finished their meal, they spent time talking. Luci laughed when Xavier talked about growing up in the palace and how he and his sister would do everything they could to mess up their parent's parties.
Xavier told her how they put tadpoles in the champagne tower, and the people would scream when they saw them in their glasses. They also spread cooking oil on the ballroom floor to make the guests slip and slide when they tried to dance.
His parents would scold them, but that didn't stop them. Xavier said his parents weren't stuffy snobs like some royals but still believed in the old laws and traditions. Luci wondered what that meant for her if she accepted Xavier as her mate.
"What will your family think of you, the crown prince mating with a vampire? I'm sure that's not something that many royals approve of." Luci looked out the plane's window at the patchwork lands below them. She felt Xavier take her hand between both of his.
"If they don't accept you, I won't accept the throne. If you choose to be my mate, I'll belong to you, not a kingdom. As my mate, you will be more important than any of the riches in the world. I know you don't feel the same way about me yet, but that's how I feel about you." Xavier looked into her beautiful brown eyes as she stared at him in disbelief.
"You would refuse the throne for me? Why would you do that?" Luci had never heard of anything so ridiculous. Why would he choose her over being king if his family didn't like her?
"Yes, I would denounce the throne, leave behind all my belongings and my wealth to be with you. When we touch, I know you can feel how our bodies respond to each other. That's why you don't mind holding my hand when you're scared. The mate bond is powerful. I know what happened to your sister, but I will never treat you that way. I'll do everything I can to show you how great we'll be together." Xavier took her hand and held it to his heart. "From the moment I saw you, my heart has only been beating for you. It will break my heart if you reject me, but I promise to let you go. If you accept me, my heart will beat for you for all eternity."
Luci kept her hand over his heart so she could feel it beneath her palm. How could he say the sweetest things to her when she had tried to push him away from the moment they met? She looked into his eyes and knew he was telling her the truth. Was she being selfish, not accepting him, and trying to protect her heart from being broken?
"I don't know how or why we ended up being fated mates, but you might be the one to change my mind about being a mate." She continued rubbing her hand over his chest, liking how he felt under his shirt.
"We'll be landing soon. Do you have a preference for a hotel?" Xavier was trying to change the conversation and lessen the heat between them. He knew the more they were together, the more she would break down his unwillingness to make love to her. He was hoping she would crack first and accept him.
"I don't care where we go as long as I'm with you." Xavier felt his heart speed up. Yes, she was going to be the death of him.
Luci slid her hand from his chest to the back of his neck and pulled his face to hers. She started kissing him softly, softer than she ever had, almost like she was testing the waters. Xavier put his arm around her sliding his hand into her long blonde hair.
The kiss was different from the others. Neither was trying to gain control or be aggressive. It was sensual and teasing, with their tongues mingling and tasting each other. Luci felt herself getting aroused from kissing him like this, and she crawled onto his lap to straddle him so she could get closer.
Xavier was pleased with how she was kissing him so tenderly. When she crawled on his lap, he held her against him while their lips and tongues continued. He smelled her arousal and smiled against her lips as he strained in his jeans. When he pulled back, they were both breathless. Luci didn't get off his lap; instead, she leaned against him, putting her head on his shoulder.
"How soon before we land?" Luci whispered as she nibbled on his ear lobe before sliding her tongue inside.
Xavier squirmed in his seat as she played with his ear. He didn't know why, but what she was doing made him feel like coming in his pants. He almost forgot her question as she continued licking and sucking his ear.
"Uh, we should be landing in the next twenty minutes. You may want to put your seatbelt on. If you keep doing that, you'll make me embarrass myself." He groaned when she got more aggressive with his ear.
"Maybe you'll let me relieve you when we get to the hotel. You know what they say? What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas." Luci shifted on his lap so she was rubbing herself against the bulge in his pants. She wanted to feel what it was like to have sex with Xavier. She was starting to crave it, and it was her goal to make it happen.
"As much as I want to take you right now on the plane, you know I won't." As the plane started to descend, Luci continued sitting on his lap. She pushed against his growing erection while using her mouth to play with his ear.
"Can't you imagine how good it will feel to put that massive cock deep inside my pussy. You can just lay back while I ride you, sliding myself up and down on your huge rod." The plane was touching down now, and when it jerked, Luci could feel how big he was against her.
"Are you trying to kill me?" Xavier asked with a hoarse voice.
"No, I'm trying to make love to you." As the plane slowed down and was getting ready to stop, she couldn't see the grin that spread across his face. She didn't say fuck, or screw; she said make love.
"It's time to get off the plane. Let's find a hotel and talk about it there." Luci pulled back in surprise. She wasn't expecting him to give in to her, but he didn't say no. He said let's talk about it. She smiled to herself; maybe she had broken him down. As she was about to get off his lap, she saw the stewardess out of the corner of her eye. She decided one last reminder of who Xavier was with wouldn't hurt, so she leaned down and kissed him.
Luci jumped off his lap when they pulled apart and pulled him up with her. As they walked off the plane, hand in hand, she had to give one last dig.
"I can't wait to get to the hotel and have my way with you." She said it loud enough for the woman to hear her. Xavier knew what she was doing and didn't care. He loved that she was trying to mark her territory. He decided to help her a little and lifted her in his arms, carrying her to the waiting limo. Luci squealed with laughter.
"You got a limo. Why?" Xavier smiled as he put her down so she could get in the backseat. He got in behind her while their luggage was put in the trunk.
"Yes, I got a limo because I don't need to drive around Vegas. It will also give me more time to do this." Xavier pulled her over to him and started kissing her neck. He was going to give her a taste of her own medicine.
Luci tipped her head back as he kissed and gently sucked the tender flesh of her neck. She couldn't hold back the moan of pleasure that escaped her lips. She slid one of her hands inside his shirt to feel his rippling muscles against the palm of her hand.
Xavier raised the window between the front and back before turning back to Luci after he told the driver where to go. He pulled her onto his lap so she was straddling him again, and he pulled her face to his.
"You're driving me crazy." Xavier ran his hands up her bare thighs and teased the edge of her shorts as he kissed her. Not a sweet, tender kiss like earlier. This one was hungry and needy. They attacked each other's mouths, and he slid his hands inside her shorts until he reached her firm, round backside.
Luci felt Xavier's hands on her, and it was all she could do not to start taking her clothes off so she could feel more. She put both her hands inside his shirt and rubbed his warm skin. Their arousal was so intense that it made them both want more.
Xavier pulled one of his hands back and moved it so he could reach the front of her shorts. When he got there, he unzipped them and slid his finger inside to her wetness. Luci moaned against his mouth and shifted to give him more access. He ran his finger over her clit, teasing it.
She wouldn't let him have all the fun, so she reached down and unfastened his jeans, releasing him from his boxers. She rubbed her hand up and down while using her thumb to play with the tip of his penis. Just as they were almost too far gone to stop, the limo pulled up to the hotel.
"We're here; let's get up to our room before we explode." Xavier gave her clit one last rub with his finger, and Luci almost came. She nodded and quickly fixed her shorts while he fixed his pants.
Xavier opened the door and got out. Then he reached for her hand to help her. He refused the porter's help with their bags, and they made their way inside with their arms around each other. They quickly checked in at the front desk and headed to the elevator.
In the elevator, Luci couldn't keep her hands off him. She rubbed his arm and slid her hands inside his shirt. She leaned over and used her tongue to play with his ear again. Xavier was about to take her right there, not caring who was around.
As they got off, they quickly went to their room. No penthouse this time; it was already taken. Their room was still nice, with a king-sized bed that looked over the strip, and it had a large jacuzzi tub. Everything was decorated in black and white. Neither of them cared as Xavier dropped their bags right inside the door.
He reached over and picked Luci up so she could wrap her long legs around him. She complied willingly and wrapped her arms around his neck. Xavier carried her over to the bed and lay down with her in his arms.
Luci couldn't believe it. Was he going to finally give in to her? He rolled her over so she was lying on her back and looked down into her eyes.
"If we do this and you reject me, it won't only be me hurting. Are you sure you're ready for that?" Xavier was almost at the point where he couldn't stop if he tried, but he wanted to make sure she knew what she was doing even if she hadn't entirely accepted him yet. He knew she was close to being his.
"I haven't rejected you, and I'm not dead set on rejecting you later. I need you. Please fill this void in me and make love to me." Luci couldn't believe her own ears. She had never had to beg anyone for sex. However, she never wanted or needed it as she did with Xavier.
"Alright, but this isn't going to be rushed. I'm going to show you what it means to make love. You're going to be so out of your mind when you orgasm. It will be like nothing you've ever felt before." Luci felt herself dripping wet just from his words. When he stood up and started removing his clothes, she couldn't help the excitement running through her body. She had never wanted a man to touch her so badly as she did right now. Not just any man, only Xavier.
______________________
Luci and Xavier didn't notice the vampire sitting at one of the slot machines in the hotel lobby. He hadn't been there looking for them; he was actually on vacation. He had received an alert on his phone about Luci just that morning in the event she showed up in Las Vegas.
No one thought she would go there, but when he looked up, she was hanging on none other than a lycan. Stefan smiled as he pulled out his phone. This should make for a nice payday.
