Alexandre pulled the laces of the corset and the knot came undone.
"Mrs. Rivers, I am asking for your consent." He breathed, his fingers gently working the laces, giving me time to respond. I felt the corset slowly loosening.
"Yes. Absolutely yes. Do I have yours?" I panted, hands on his tuxedo. He looked fantastic in it, but I wanted to see him out of it.
"Of course love. I belong to you. Officially now." Alexandre kissed me deeply as the corset top loosened enough for him to gently unlatch the collar and pull the sheer sleeves down my arms. I gasped as the material slid over my skin sensually. Alexandre paused and let me slide his jacket off and unbutton his shirt. He let out a soft groan as I let my nails slide under the shirt edges, along his light musculature. He unhooked his cummerbund and slipped out of the shirt, slowly, then took my hand with the brand new ring on it. I'd asked for something simple, and he'd delivered, but with his usual Alexandre flair. A thin band with an infinity symbol centered on it now circled my finger. No diamonds. I'd told him I didn't want to scratch Mina or lose it somewhere. Or worse, damage it somehow. He'd whined, but cooperated. I was certain it was probably the most expensive metal on the planet, but I wasn't going to complain, it was beautiful and understated, exactly as I'd asked, and had that personal touch I'd come to adore in the infinity symbol as a compromise for the lack of diamonds. It meant so much more to me. He kissed every finger of my hand and then the ring.
"I can't believe I get to keep you for eternity." He looked at me with that look so full of love that made my heart break. I gripped his hand and placed it over mine.
"You're not the only one." I kissed his ring as well and his eyes teared up slightly. He reverently loosened the rest of the ties on my dress and knelt as he helped it slide over my hips. The dress puddled at my feet. Alexandre sucked in a breath like it was the first time he'd ever seen me naked.
"So beautiful." He murmured.
"You've seen it before." I blushed, pulling him to his feet.
"But not as mine. Now, this belongs to me. Officially." He yanked me against himself and I could feel his arousal straining against his pants.
"It always did." I whispered, tilting my head to kiss him, which he answered with passion. My hands fell to his pants and worked the fastenings open. He hissed slightly as I purposefully rubbed his arousal on my way down with his pants. He toed off his shoes as I stood, and lifted me to place me among the blankets and pillows. Running a hand down my leg, he hooked off one of my shoes and tossed it by the pile of clothes by the doorway of the gazebo, then kissed my inner thigh. His hand slid down my other calf to snag the other shoe, and it was gone too.
"The veil Alexandre-I don't want to ruin it." I reminded him breathlessly and he gently plucked the comb from my hair that it was attached to and laid it on the bench above us. It covered several faux candles, causing even more shadows that danced across his skin.
"No, you're wrong-this is beautiful." I whispered, tracing the planes of his face and chest. He chuckled slightly.
"I thought you weren't interested in me because of my looks." Alexandre teased.
"Oh Alexandre-I didn't fall for you because of your looks. But of course I find you beautiful! I love the way your hair curls when it's damp, and the way your whole face lights up when you see me or Mina. I love your wicked smile that promises trouble, and your lips that promise more. I love the warm chocolate of your eyes, and how it melts when you laugh or look at me like you're in love. Kind of like that look there." I squeaked the last as he pounced on me, his lips slamming against mine so hard our teeth knocked together, making me laugh. When he released me, I panted breathlessly. "Would you like me to go on?" I asked and Alexandre growled.
"Talk later, sex now." He answered, and he ripped the lacy panties off me before shredding his own boxers and tossing them away. I was still giggling slightly as his socks went flying, which added to the mayhem in my mind, and then he was hovering over me and my giggles came to a screeching halt.
"I may scream." I warned him.
"Good." He growled.
"I will probably bite." I stated, and he growled again. "And I'm definitely going to want you to bite." His growl grew louder.
"Good." He snarled, and with that, he lunged forward to sink his teeth into my shoulder, making me buck and writhe beneath him. I dug my fingernails into his back and threw my legs around his waist with a moan.
"Yes Alexandre!" I panted, rubbing myself against him. I could feel his muscles getting more tense by the minute as he drew the blood from the wound in my shoulder. He gave his head a little shake and then his fingers sank between my thighs. I arched into him with a cry. His fingers brushed over me softly, then more insistently. I rocked with the motion, wanting more. He growled slightly and then slid a finger inside me with a moan.
"God Carys, I'm not going to last if you keep this up." Alexandre moaned as I ground myself against him more fiercely.
"Can't help it. Need you now." I panted and Alexandre growled again.
"Hold on then." He snarled, and pushed my thighs further apart, tossing my legs onto his shoulders. "Cause you're going to get me." He slipped in, then paused, making me gasp and arch my hips up, trying to meet his, then he slid in further, to pause again with a groan as I writhed. "Are you ready?" He asked as I struggled to bring our bodies closer.
"Yes, yes, please!" I gasped, and then he shoved forward the rest of the way, my legs slipping down around his upper arms as he hit my cervix and all the right places. Alexandre let his thumb slide along my clit as he pulled back and thrust forward again. I cried out his name as I bucked against him and he growled, plunging his teeth into my neck. I wrapped my fingers in his hair and screamed through my first orgasm of the night. Alexandre held his release, pulling me into his arms to swipe a bunch of faux candles off the bench. He turned me and bent me at the waist, settling me on my knees, telling me to hold onto the bench with a snarl as he parted my thighs. He drove himself into me, wrapping a hand around my waist to gently rub my clit while the other hand held the back of my neck, keeping me gently but firmly in position. I dug my nails into the white bench, knowing I was digging gouges in it as Alexandre's powerful release suddenly surged into me in a seemingly never ending climax. He yelled my name and I shuddered and climaxed again so hard I felt wood lodge under my nails from the gazebo bench.
When he let me go, I turned on him like a wild animal, sinking my teeth into his neck, snarling as I rode him to the gazebo floor. I let my vampire side have full reign, rubbing and teasing him into a new state of arousal. I nipped at him down his torso until I sunk my teeth into his inner thigh, and with a gasp, his body arched upward, arousal fully on display and I growled my approval, ready for another round with my new husband.
I stretched happily as the morning light woke me up and rolled into my husband's arms to bury my face under his chin to go back to sleep.
My husband.
I sighed happily and snuggled deeper. Alexandre had kept me up all night, but I wasn't complaining. It was bedtime for us vamps anyway. Alexandre ran his fingers down my spine.
"I know you're awake Carys, love. It's time we got back inside." Alexandre murmured.
"Not awake." I mumbled and Alexandre chuckled.
"Oh really?" He tsked. "What a pity. Then I can't ask your consent once more before we head inside, little wife." I opened my eyes for that and he laughed. He did indeed receive my consent.
