CHAPTER 15

Sonia had gone to get a drink and came back soon enough. She closed the door 
behind her, and I heard a faint 'click' as she locked the door, trying to 
not let me see it. She sat beside me, and rested her head on my shoulder, 
twirling my hair around her fingers.

"I checked on everyone. They're asleep..." she whispered. I knew where this 
was heading...

I took her chin in my hand, pulling her face up to mine and kissing her 
deeply, feeling her hands start to run through my hair. I wrapped my arms 
around her, slowly lowering her onto the bed. God, to take this girl...

I felt Sonia run a hand down my chest and to my belt, and that's when I 
pulled back.

Sonia stared up at me, "What? What is it?"

I bit my lip, "No... I can't... not now... I'm sorry."

Sonia blinked, "But I thought you--"

"I do want this, yes... but it's just too soon... I'm sorry... later. I 
promise..." I said, softly caressing her face with the side of my hand. 
Sonia stared up at me, hurt. I lowered my face to her's and kissed her again 
to assure her that I still loved her.

"Will you stay with me tonight?" she pleaded, one of her arms draping from 
my neck.

I smiled, "Sure..."

She pulled out from under me and let me lay beside her. She at least helped 
me strip down into something more comfortable to sleep in, as I did her. 
Sonia was beautiful, and I had to fight the urge to pull off her 
undergarments to fully reveal her to me, and I knew she had to restrain 
herself as well. I could tell because it was obvious she was fighting with 
herself.

As we lay together, I wrapped my arms around her as she came closer to me. I 
knew that refusing her was either the smartest or stupidest thing I had ever 
done. I did want her at that moment, I truly did, but I had also desired 
Succubus when I was fourteen, but she told me I was not entirely ready and 
forced me to wait another year. That was probably one good thing she taught 
me: Morals.

We did, however, caress. That couldn't be stopped at all. It sent chills 
down my body, feeling her fingers glide across my pale skin.

"I love you, Alucard..." she whispered into my ear as she trailed her hand 
lower, stopping at my abdomen and lightly running her fingernails across my 
flesh. I kissed her temple, then lightly bit her earlobe. She shuddered 
lightly and kissed me. I wrapped my arms around her small waist, pulling her 
suffocatingly close to me, kissing her back. I felt her tongue run along my 
fangs. God, the taste of this girl drove me insane. I had kissed her neck 
the night before and it was insanely difficult to keep myself from biting 
her... just to take the taste of her blood on my tongue even if it was one 
drop...

She soon stopped kissing and ran her fingers through my hair. Sonia was 
still a virgin but she knew exactly what she was doing...

I pulled Sonia closer to me and let her fall asleep in my arms. Soon we'd 
become lovers... I just had to find the right time...
