He had not answered her questions about his meal and she prompted him to tell her if he had any concerns, eager now to move past the small talk and have another taste of him.<br/><br/>Nathan's following words surprised her with the heat behind them and she tilted her head, unsure what had provoked them until she remembered her attire. Her arms slipped around his neck, humming in quiet delight at the warmth of his skin. "Look at you, all flushed and mottled. I love the way your scent intensifies when your skin reddens," she murmured in his ear, one hand moving down his chest so that her fingertips could glide over his deliciously warm skin.<br/><br/>"Are you a little bit jealous, Nathan?" she teased, knowing she was likely making him angrier. She supposed she should put him out of his misery and help him relax so that they could move this along. She was eager to drink and sate this almost overwhelming thirst. "Nobody will be joining us. What kind of woman do you think I am?" she asked, lifting her hands from him. "I told you that I don't like to share. That includes my partners in the bedroom. I'd get too jealous if someone was watching. I can be a little territorial."<br/><br/>Elysia's fingers moved back into Nathan's hair and tightened, gently angling his hair backwards and exposing his throat. "My, my, Nathan. You would dare issue<span style="font-style: italic"> me</span>orders? I didn't think I would have to punish you for misbehaviour on your very first day." She understood why he had been upset and she didn't blame him. She released his hair and her hands returned to his shoulders where she began to massage them in an effort to settle him.<br/><br/>"I'm afraid you knocked while I was changing," she lied. She had not been planning on dressing again before she'd fed from him but he didn't need to know that. "I'm sorry if that made you uncomfortable. Still, I didn't want to spoil my new dress with blood. It's so hard to get out. I can put something else on, if you prefer?" she offered, her nose gliding along the side of his neck.<br/><br/>"Now, if you have any other concerns you'd best tell me now. I won't be able to hold back much longer. You smell positively mouthwatering."
