<br/>
The sounds that erupted from Eve made Beckett feel even more powerful. It was rare when she would bend and break for him so willingly. He soaked these moments in because he was never sure when he would ever find this again. Beckett had never been on the hunt for someone else. He was never looking for a new mate. He knew he would have to change for someone and he just wasn't capable of that. At least not in this very moment. The idea of change scared him and he refused to be vulnerable for multiple people. When he was vulnerable with Eve he could trust that she would not use that against him and that she would not mock him for those moments. He knew she wanted more of those moments, but he could only give her those in small doses. He knew one day she would come a crossed someone who could give her everything he needed. Beckett wasn't sure if he would ever be ready for that day, but he couldn't be selfish at least not all the time. Tonight he would be selfish and mark her as his own. <br/>
<br/>
He allowed her to shift his face so that their hungry lips could find one another again. Her taste was always so sweet and alluring. The taste of her blood had been one of his favorites for a long time. There were sometimes when he looked upon Eve that he could see those lingering questions in her eyes. <i>Can we do this again?</i> echoed in her dark eyes. The answer would always be no when she approached him. It wasn't because he didn't love her, it was because he didn't love himself enough to make that commitment again. He was doing his best not to think of things so negatively which could be hard for him. He knew soon he'd do something again to make her upset. Which in his defense he never tried to do on purpose. He just was never the best with his wording and since he shut off most of his human emotions it was a lot hard to be gentle and soft with her. <br/>
<br/>
Beckett found himself falling back onto the sheets. He closed his eyes and listened to the sounds that filled the room and those that lingered right outside. He moved his hand up to move through her curls. Gently he held her and did his best to provide soft aftercare. Tonight he would stay with her for as long as she wanted. The one birthday gift he could give her was his time. Something he felt like he never offered anymore. He opened his eyes when he heard the soft sigh leave her lips. He looked down at her for a moment. He knew they couldn't be here as long as she wanted because Julius would be here soon. Soon he would have to roll back into his cold demeanor and into his businessman personality. Julius would be staying in their home. He hated that and wished that they could send him off somewhere on his own. He let his fingers slide from her hair as he watched her sleek form shift away from him. Though he wanted to pull her back to him, he waited because he knew she was checking in with Julius. <br/>
<br/>
"Mmmm," he responded when she spoke about Julius. "It is taking him sometime to get here," he said with a soft laugh. He wouldn't complain one bit about Julius taking his time to arrive at their home. Though he could get a laugh out of Julius finding the two of them intertwined in Eve's bed. It was the one thing Julius had no control of when it came to things. He couldn't stop the pull that kept bringing Eve and Beckett together. He willingly opened his arms to wrap around her when she came back to him. Beckett responded to her comment with a deep laugh. "Love, his attitude hasn't scared me in a long time." He kissed the top of her head and for a moment the old Beckett slipped out. "Besides, you're worth his attitude." Beckett furrowed his brow the moment she brought up the sheriff. "I hate him, but if it means getting some of this bullshit off my back I am willing to try it. But if he pushes me the wrong way this town might have to look for a new sheriff," he growled a little. "That man should be happy that we cannot walk in the daylight because I would make his life a living hell all day everyday." <br/>
<br/>
Just as Beckett started to get comfortable enough to drift to sleep a little before Julius appeared he heard the sound of the buzzard from the gate. "Who the fuck?" he said opening his eyes. "He can't be here already, can he?" he sat up a little in bed. <br/>
