Mine forever

In the west wing garden, Jackson was relieved, that his little baby doll is so understanding. Her heart is as warm as her body. Brenda one of the girls from the kitchen brought them the salad and drinks they ordered placing it on the table in front of them. Asking him " Prince Jackson would you like anything else?" Remembering Brenda's interview with Alex went smoothly, he dismissed her "no that will be all , thank you Brenda." but he still had the urge to taste all of Karmen's food before she started eating. He picked up the fork asking her " Babe can I try a bite of your salad "

She was a little bit puzzled by his request, all the books she has read said vampires aren't very fond of vegetables, she lifted her brows and ask him " you really want a bite of my salad? You can have half of it if you're hungry."

"No babe all I want is one bite from the top of it."

His request seemed strange, but she slides her plate over to him, she watched as he awkwardly chewed the salad with a grim look on his face. She nibble on her thumb nail, tugging her brows together, gulping when he swallowed , asking him " why did you do that, you looked like you were in pain?" Before he answered, he grabbed her lemon water and took a big drink.

"I really don't know Babe ,but I felt like I wanted to."

"Maybe you should stick to your steaks and blood and just let me eat the salad."

Her knowledge about vampires is just overwhelming to him, most human girls are grossed out if vampires drank blood in front of them . The only blood he had drank in front of her was in the silver goblets that Alex had been using so that Lexi couldn't see the blood. He was curious to know if he needed to do that also when they move out of the castle into to his house.

"Babe would it brother you to see me drank blood."

"No it bothered me to watch you eat that salad. You looked like you were chewing gum that you had found underneath the table."

Laughing at her analogy of his expression, he pulled her from her chair , into his lap wrapping his arms around her, asking

"Babe, how can you be so damm perfect?"

He saw her cheeks turning red , he pulled her in tighter asking " Babe surely setting in my lap doesn't embrace you."

She tugged at her dress to pull it down. But it was stuck on the arm of the chair and bunched up around her waist. She stammered into his chest " my dress came up."

He looked down to see what she was talking about, her freshly waxed flower came in to view, he groaned his voice coming out low and sexy "Babe your so damm beautiful,"

His fingers itched to touch her smooth petals. As she squirmed around in his lap to pull her dress down. He reached over untangling her dress from the chair arm pulling it down. She buried her reddened face into his chest. He stroked her back his voice was gentle and soothing "Babe it's ok, no one is out here but you and me." He kissed her neck, whispering on her skin, "you need to get more comfortable with me seeing you, you don't really plan to marry a vampire and not be necked do you?"

She snapped her head up looking bewildered at what he just ask her, stammering, "marry"

With out wasting a second, he replied "yeah babe I'm not just killing time." Her dazed look had him asking her " what, are you just leading me on babe?" His question just left her more confused, was he really asking her intentions, she stumbled and stuttering her words trying to answer him. " Uh...n..no I'm not leading you on, but,but.." He cut her off, "Babe calm down, I'll give you time, but you know how it works with vampires right?"

She blinked her eyes, nodding her head asking him, "do you really think I'm your mate?"

"Babe I know you are. I have no doubt in my mind."

She had read about this in books, how vampires can tell right away when they find their mate it's part of their survival instincts. Usually there is no courtship with vampires, when they find their mate a chemical in their brain is released to began the mating process to produce off spring right away. What he said didn't frighten her instead she was curious to know more. She leaned back further to analyze what he just said quizzing him as if she was going to give him a test " how do you really know? What does it feel like?" She held his gaze, waiting for his reply. He caressed her warm cheek with the back of his hand. Answering her question "Babe it just feels like I want be able to ever sleep anymore with out you in my arms. And I have a feeling that I need to protect you. Babe I don't want to scare you but I have another feeling, do I really need to tell you what it is."

She gulped at hearing his words, knowing exactly what he was talking about, vampires get a overwhelming feeling of possessiveness. She tugged her brows together asking him " How bad is it?"

Seeing the worried look on her face, and hearing her heart rate go up he chuckled, and tried to explain

"Babe it's not like I want to lock you in the basement or tie you to the bed or anything . It's just when Lexi sent a picture of your tattoo to Alex , I grabbed his phone and deleted the picture. I have never experienced any thing like this in my life, it drives me crazy to think about someone else looking at or touching what's mine."

She narrowed her eyes and her jaw dropped, causing her heart to skip, that's his forte ,his strongest ability understanding a heart beat, he could tell something he said caused a disturbance a jolt of some sort. This caused his heart to race, he immediately pleaded"Babe,I promise I will never try to keep you from doing anything you want to do"

Realizing he had the wrong impression, she immediately eased his mind " no, no , it's just Lexi sent a picture of my tattoo to Alex?" Seeing she had no clue ,he told her what happened. "I guess when you changed back into your clothes, Lexi somehow took a picture of your tattoo and sent it to Alex."

She blurts out in a panicked voice

"Alex seen my ass?"

"Yeah babe, but don't even talk about it. It riles me up. I'm just hoping the tattoo artist was a woman. And I know ,I have no right to feel that way, because of everything I have done."

Her next statement sent his heart soaring,

"If it eases your mind, yes the tattoo artist was a woman. And I don't want to talk about anything you have done either . I don't want to thank about all those women touching you."

He heard her heart beat with a tinge of possessiveness, causing his lips to curl up, using his seductive nature, his charm and his abilities to attack her senses in a daring effort to get exactly what he wants, he pulled her close giving her a gentle warm kiss nipping and sucking on her lips ,trailing , small kisses to her neck causing her to become hot and lustful, he whispered softly on her skin " Babe tell me, will you be mine forever, tell me you will never leave me." He nibbled and sucked on her sensitive skin, turning her restless and needy making her melt in his arms like a snow flake in the palm of his hand.she hummed in his ear " I'm not going anywhere" he grazed his fangs along her neck, silently telling her what he wanted, asking for more "promise me babe, you know I would never leave you or cheat on you." She knows this is true when a vampire, finds their mate they drink their blood and it bonds them together forever. She softly mummers "I promise " He picked her up, jumping to the balcony above them leading to her bedroom. Laying her down in the middle of the big wooden sleigh bed, he laid down beside her. With the top part of his body leaning over her, he slides his hand

Under her dress up to her thigh. Her heart started thundering in her chest, and her body trembled underneath him. He stopped bringing his hand back up to her face caressing her cheek asking her "Babe what are you afraid of ?" She closed her eyes, taking a deep breath stammering under her breath "No one has ever touched me like that."

"It's ok babe, we will work on that first, you need to be comfortable with my touch, you can't be tense or nervous."

He slide his hand down the side of her body, as hand slipped past her waist to her hip she held her breath, he leaned over speaking softly in her ear " Babe relax and breath, " He caressed her hip over her dress , leaning forward he gave her a soft gentle kiss , pulling back to look in her eyes speak in a low tone " Babe you know I would never hurt you. A vampires strongest instinct is to protect their mate." She nervously played with the collar of his shirt, her words barely passing through her lips,

"I know , and I'm trying to relax."

"Babe I'm not going to drank your blood today ,I'm just going to touch you, nothing else." He slipped his hand down her thigh, slowly listening to her heart beat,leaning over capturing her lips in a seductive passionate kiss , sliding his skillful tongue into her mouth , stimulating her senses and igniting a fire deep inside her , as his hand slipped under her dress and up her thigh .He worked his seductive intoxicating spell , his hand massaged and caressed her bottom . His phone vibrates causing everything to halt . He takes his phone out of his pocket and throws it across the room.

Only to hear her protest "wait, wait is it two, I got to meet with the dress designer , in Lexi's room."
