Atlas loved Ezme with all his heart now. He honestly didn't know how or when it happened, but he could no longer imagine life without her. He was willing to turn into a vampire just so he could be with her for a lifetime.
Ezme rolled on top of him and asked, "What did you say?"
Atlas took a deep breath and rolled again so she'd be trapped beneath him. "I said, let's do the coupling rite. I want you to mark me," he firmly stated.
"But, you'll turn into a vampire if I do that. I've told you I can't control my venom from my fangs!" Ezme reiterated.
"So? I want you to turn me. Once I become a vampire, I can mark you as mine as well!" Atlas declared.
"Atlas," Ezme weakly muttered. He just smiled before leaning in to kiss her lips. His hands moved and aggressively tore her dress apart.
