Chapter 38: Possessed

After my visit to Plasma 501, I was emotional and vulnerable. This was the first time I felt dirty after being with a guy, so I took a shower and went straight to bed. I was scared to tell Tennan about what had happened to me at the bar. I knew if I talked about it, I would feel like I was living it again. I was curious about it though, and he would be the only one who could possibly explain the strange feelings I'd experienced.

When I woke up, Tennan was in my bed. What the berry? I know that I was alone when I went to bed last night. He knew when I was feeling sad or upset, so maybe he just wanted to keep me company and let me know I was safe. I had been in sort of a daze when I got home last night, and I had no doubts he had sensed it. I lay awake for a little while, staring at his face. I was probably being really creepy, but I couldn't help it. He was so handsome. I wished I could kiss him and hold him. I almost moved closer to him under the covers, but I stopped myself, instead choosing to get out of bed.

After some breakfast, I heard Tennan in the other room playing with Francesca. I was still a little traumatized, so I went into her room and hugged him.

"Tennan, I had a bad night."

"Awww, baby, what happened?"

Red flags went off in my head. First he was in my bed, now he was calling me 'baby?' He usually tried to be very cautious around me about that kind of stuff.

I pulled away from him.

"What do you mean, 'baby'? You shouldn't call me that. You know I always have to suppress the desire to get you into bed."

"Aww, you don't need to suppress it anymore. I was wrong about everything. Let's be together."

He had a goofy smile on his face that I wasn't sure how to interpret. I did want his body, but I knew better. He had made it clear the very first time I hit on him that we weren't supposed to be intimate. Something was seriously not right with him.

"Tennan, you're acting really weird."

I backed out of the room, confused and annoyed that my only friend was not being himself today, especially when I needed him the most. What was wrong with him? I went for a motorcycle ride. I needed to get away from Tennan. I was afraid I would take advantage of him.

I stopped at the Ravenview Esplanade and walked down to the water's edge. The water was peaceful. The gentle breeze made the water ripple. The sunshine made the water sparkle under its rays. I was so worried about Tennan, but I didn't know what to do to help him. Doctors here wouldn't be able to tell if anything was wrong with him, and I had no idea how to communicate with people from his world.

"Sicily..."

Suddenly a deep voice I'd never heard before was saying my name. I spun around, looking for the person whom the voice belonged to. There was no one anywhere around me. Great, Tennan was going crazy, now so was I. The voice spoke again.

"Sicily... this is Tennan's father. I am speaking to you through your mind. You can just think a thought, and I will hear you. Don't worry, you are not crazy."

Mmm... ok.. is something wrong with Tennan? Am I right to think he is behaving strangely?

"Yes, Sicily. You are a smart girl. I have found out that Tennan is under a spell that is causing him to lust after you."

A spell? Who did this to him? 

"Delano put the spell on Tennan while you were at Plasma 501 last night."

Delano? Why the berry would he do that? I hadn't even thought about the fact that I hadn't seen Delano today. He was usually up early in the morning helping with the household chores.

"Just as there are good and bad people, there are also good and bad genies. Delano was a bad one, and he likes to cause trouble for anyone who finds his lamp. When he heard you say that you wanted any vampire except Tennan, he wanted to sabotage you. He got you out of the house by sending you to the bar so he could work his magic."

How do I break the spell? Can Tennan die?

"Find a flame fruit. It is an orange fruit that has medicinal powers. Have Tennan eat it and then rest for the night. He should be cured in the morning. The flame fruit is most effective after a deep sleep. If he stays under the spell too long, it could endanger his life. It would be in your best interest to give him the fruit soon. You will find one in your refrigerator when you get home."

I hopped on my motorcycle and raced back home. Tennan wouldn't die. Not under my watch.

When I got home, Tennan had gotten worse. He greeted me at the door and grabbed my butt. He rubbed my back and hungrily kissed my neck. He tried to kiss me on the mouth, but I wouldn't let him. I knew if I gave into kissing his lips, I wouldn't be able to turn back.

"Awww, sexy, let's go fuck. It'll be spectacular."

"Tennan, I need to get something out of the fridge."

"Nah, we don't need food. Come on, you want to see?"

He took his shirt off and threw it across the room. He stuck his chest out and put his hand on his pec, rubbing himself. I took this as my opportunity to get to the fridge. I managed to get one hand on the handle of the fridge and pull it open.

Tennan shut the door and grabbed my hand. He got this look in his eyes, a look I was all too familiar with. It was the 'I'm really horny' look. I found it really difficult to resist him. Here he was standing in front of me, begging me to be with him. I looked at his body. He had a six pack that seemed to go on forever. I wanted to massage his pecs and make him feel good.

He leaned in close to me and put his hand on my shoulder. His touch was electrifying. I felt the excitement growing in his pants. I really wanted to screw him on the kitchen counter, but I couldn't. I needed to release him from this spell. There was no way I was going to lose him. He was much too important to me. I turned around and tried to open the fridge again.

I managed to get the fridge open and pull the flame fruit out when I heard Tennan groan.

"Oooh, my head..."

I closed the door just in time to see him collapse on the floor.

"TENNAN!"

I rushed to his side, and tried to wake him up so I could feed him the flame fruit. I was so scared that I was too late.

"Tennan, wake up! Please, wake up!"

I shook him and patted his face a little. I put my head close to his chest. His heart was still beating, but his breath was slow and ragged.

"Uuhhh..."

"Tennan, wake up. Eat this."

Tennan finally opened his eyes and stared at me. His eyes were glossed over and they kept rolling back in his head. He was having trouble focusing. I put the fruit near his mouth and finally got him to understand what I was trying to do.

"Huh? Mm.. ok.."

I held his head up and he took a big bite of the fruit, chewing slowly. After he ate all of it, he tried to get up, but stumbled. I caught one of his arms, putting it around my shoulder, supporting him as we walked to the bedroom.

He was groggy and he kept grabbing at me, but I managed to help him change into his pajamas and get into bed without giving in to him.

"Mmm... you want to fuck? I'm good at it."

He kept inviting me to join him in bed, but I stood off to the side so he couldn't reach me once he laid down. I was really burning with desire after this ordeal because contrary to my actions, I wanted him more than anything.

Chapter 37: Plasma 501

I looked around at my surroundings. Plasma 501 didn't look any different than the bars humans usually frequented, there was the same low lighting and loud music. I walked up to the bar and took a seat, resting my arms on the counter.

"What can I get you, darling?"

The bartender smiled at me as she polished a glass with a clean white dish cloth.

"Um, I'll have a Captain and Coke."

"Coming right up."

"Oooh, look at what we have here."

A voice behind me caused my initial rush of excitement to become replaced with a sense of nervousness. The voice was unfriendly and taunting in nature.

"A human."

The way he said 'human' was laced with disdain and contempt. It sent chills down my spine.

"What are you doing in our bar, human?"

A dark haired vampire's face appeared directly in front of mine, invading my personal space, making me extremely uncomfortable. I shook off the fear I was feeling inside and tried to remain calm and collected on the outside.

"Ordering a drink. Would you like to join me?"

Even though he was scaring the shit out of me, my eyes still wandered to his partially exposed, perfectly sculpted chest.

"You're not fooling anyone. You're terrified of me. I can see the fear emanating off your hot body. I have heightened senses, you know. Oh, wait, you probably already knew that, right? You're some sort of vampire junkie, hmm? Why else would you be here?"

The bartender finished preparing my drink and set it down in front of me. I put some Simoleons on the counter and tried to find a different seat away from the mean vampire.

As soon as I turned away from his menacing gaze, he was suddenly in front of me, blocking my path. Of course, how could I have forgotten? He moved just as fast as Tennan did. Only he wasn't kind like Tennan was.

I tried to walk away from him, but then I heard his voice behind me again.

"Did you not hear me? I asked you a question, human. Why are you here?"

I backed away from him, wishing he would stop harassing me, until I bumped into a foosball table. The vampire stood close to me again, looking into my eyes. I felt like time froze around me. What was he going to do?

---

"Vampirique convoitise!"

"Oooh, my head..."

---

"Do you want to have sex? Hmm? You want to know what it's like to kiss someone with fangs? You want to know how a vampire makes love? You want to know if it's any different than how a human feels? I can fulfill that desire for you."

He grabbed me roughly, making me spill a little of my drink on my dress. He had just read my mind. I didn't want to be with him. Not like this. He took my drink out of my hand and set it on the table behind him. Then he gently put his hand on my stomach. I was scared.

"I can feel your fear. I know you'll just give into me because you want this."

I looked at him, entranced by his glowing blue eyes. I don't know why I was frozen, why I felt like I couldn't move. He moved his hand up to my chest and touched it. He put his hand in my bra and I was getting aroused, but still terrified.

"Aah, there it is. You like this. You like my touch. Let's see if you're ready."

The vampire lifted up my skirt and slid his hand inside.

"Mmm, yeah. Oh, you like that. Feels good, doesn't it? Hmm, human?"

Try to tell you no, but my body keeps on telling you yes
Try to tell you stop, but your lipstick got me so out of breath
I'll be waking up in the morning, probably hating myself
I'll be waking up, feeling satisfied but guilty as hell

~ One More Night by Maroon 5 ~

The way he kept saying 'human' as if I was some sort of plague was disgusting to me, yet his touch was turning me on. I was feeling so conflicted. My head was telling me one thing, but my body was responding in a completely different way. I desperately wanted to pull away from him and go home, yet another part of me felt an urge to rip his clothes off.. still, I felt paralyzed in his arms. What was he doing to me?

"Ha-ha-ha. Confused? Good. Come on, you want this."

The vampire kept reading my mind and I felt naked. He stopped touching me and put his face close to mine. He took my face in his hands and stared into my eyes, not uttering a single word.

We stood there staring at each other for what seemed like an eternity until I saw my hands rise up from my sides and touch his face. I moved closer to him, pressing my body on his. He smiled, letting his fangs show. He was so intimidating and mean, but now I wanted nothing more than to fuck him. He put his hands on my butt and  gently squeezed.

Suddenly I was pushing him towards a corner booth in the back of the bar, unbuttoning the rest of his shirt as we walked backwards.

I sat on his lap and pulled my dress down so he could see my chest. I grabbed his face and licked his lips. He kissed me. I kissed him back and let my tongue play with his fangs. He started fumbling with his pants and then I let him inside.

I felt disgusted and confused on my way home from Plasma 501. I had felt that uncontrollable urge to get into the vampire's pants, but that time it was different. I had never been so afraid in my entire life. I had a huge headache and I was still unsure of what had come over me. Usually it was me doing the seducing, me being in control. That time however, the vampire had been the one totally in control.

Chapter 36: Curiosity

Hmm.. my very own genie. My very own handsome genie. He had really exotic looking clothes on, complete with puffy pants and shoes that curled up at the toes. His shirt didn't seem much like a shirt, seeing as it was held together by two small strings. I wanted to do dirty things to him.

"What do I call you?"

"Genie Delano."

"How did you end up in the junkyard?"

"I don't know. I granted my last master three wishes, and after the third one was done, he told me to go back into the lamp. He said he would free me after he got back from work. He never did, and here we are."

My heart went out to him. I was starting to understand that genies lived a life of slavery, even though I thought that kind of behavior died a long time ago. I felt sorry for Delano, and I decided to treat him well. At least one genie would have a good owner.

"Come, Genie Delano. Let's go back to my house."

"Shall I go back into the lamp, mistress?"

"No. You can walk with me."

"Thank you, mistress."

When we got back to the house, I showed Delano to one of the spare bunk beds.

"You can sleep here. What do I do with the lamp?"

"Keep it near me, usually in the same room. It is the source of my power and it has a short range."

"Good night, Genie Delano."

"Good night, mistress."

Over the next few days, Delano used his powers to clean the house, giving me time to teach Glasgow and Heath their skills. He was like a sexy supernatural housekeeper.

Delano also helped with the kids. I think he was grateful to me for treating him well. I never made him go into his lamp while he stayed with me. As far as I was concerned, Delano was another member of my family, even if his stay was only temporary. Besides, I couldn't help but indulge myself watching him walk around the house. He was very good eye candy.

Delano had just put Heath in his crib and was getting ready to go to bed. I entered his room and shut the door behind us. I wanted to show him how much I appreciated his help.

"Mmm.. hi, Genie Delano," I stood close to him, tickling his chest.

"Hello, mistress."

I kissed his lips and hugged his body close to me. I was enjoying his warm breath on my face as he kissed me back. He bent down and let me wrap my legs around him. He pushed me up against the wall and moved his hips with mine. His hands were like a chair, cupping my butt.

He moved one arm under me to support me while his other hand started fumbling with the clasp on my shirt. I undid the clasps on his vest and pulled it open, revealing his sexy body. He slowly moved me away from the wall and carried me to my bedroom. When we got there, he tossed my shirt on the floor and we made out on my bed.

I squeezed my legs around his waist, making him smile.  I took his clothes off and we laid down on the bed. I traced his tattoo with my finger. He rolled on top of me and kissed my neck softly. I breathed in his ear and he put himself inside me. He was a really good kisser and lover.

---

Heath was the little present that Matt had left behind. He had Matt's blue eyes, and I honestly had no idea where he got his blonde hair from, but he was adorable. I knew he was himself a genie, but his powers hadn't developed yet.

Ever since Tennan had told me about his past, I was trying really hard to be conscious of the importance of his job. I admit I was still extremely aroused by him and the desire to jump him in the shower or when he was working out was always a possibility that went through my head. One day I had an idea about how I could satisfy my curiosity as well as my lust without harming Tennan.

"Genie Delano, you have to follow my wishes exactly, right? You are not allowed to twist my words?"

"Yes, mistress. I am under your command."

"I wish to know what sex with a vampire is like. Genie Delano, that vampire must NOT be Tennan. Understood?"

Delano nodded and bowed, showing me that he understood my instructions clearly. A few hours later, he handed me a sheet of paper with an address on it.

"Mistress, I found a bar for you. There are vampires who frequent it regularly. Perhaps you can find one who will suit your needs. Here is the address."

When I pulled up to Plasma 501, I felt an adrenaline rush course through my body that made me feel alive. Even though vampires didn't really instill fear in me, I did feel a little sense of danger when I walked into the bar. I wonder if it was because of the quantity of vampires that were here. Tennan's face flashed in the back of my mind. I hoped I could find a vampire here who was just as hot as he was. Tonight my curiosity would be satisfied.

Chapter 35: Genie 2.0

Tennan and I were eating breakfast. The burnt waffles tasted horrific. Poor Emerald loved to cook, but her skills in the kitchen were terrible. When she came up to me ecstatic that she had made food for me, I didn't want to discourage her from trying again. I had slathered them in syrup, but even that didn't really help much.

"Tennan, have you ever been in love?"

"Yes, once, but-"

He paused for a minute before speaking again. "I lost her."

"I'm sorry. Who was she?"

"Many years ago, before you were born, I had been assigned to be a protector to another young woman from your family."

"Before I was born? How old are you?"

Tennan laughed, before replying, "113."

I almost choked on my food. "Holy berry! You look... amazing."

"Ha-ha. One of the perks of being a vampire. I age much slower than humans. This woman was much like you, strong willed, and stubborn. She hit on me whenever she wasn't pregnant. One night I gave in to her. We became a couple for a little while. A few weeks later, I felt terrible. I was in constant pain. My muscles ached all the time. I felt like I was being ripped apart from the inside. Since the hospitals in your world don't know anything about vampire anatomy, I went back to my world and had my doctor give me a checkup."

"He found out that my blood was slowly turning to poison. Only the blackest of magic could have done that. The poison levels were still low at 35% when I went to the doctor, so I can only imagine how painful anything higher than that would have felt like. I stayed in the hospital for a while, hooked up to IVs that took the poison out of my system. Then I had a blood transfusion to replace what was lost. After I was cured, I went back to her house. A few days later, the pain returned, and I was in the hospital again."

"What was causing your illness?"

"She was."

"My father declared my protection job over, and I was never to go to her again. Once I stopped seeing her, the illness never came back. My father sent another vampire out to do what I couldn't, but he was too late. He found her on the train tracks. She had parked her car on the railroad crossing."

"Tennan, I'm so sorry."

"It's ok. Time has healed me and opened my eyes to the importance of my job here. I will not lose you as well."

I got up and walked away, feeling sad again. I felt so sad for him and myself at the same time. Tennan followed me. He grabbed my shoulders and looked at me.

"Hey, Sicily. What's wrong?"

"I'm afraid I'm going to screw it up. I've managed to lose two people already. I know you're strong, but I'm scared I'll involuntarily hurt you... or get you killed. It's so powerful when it comes over me."

"Shh.. it's okay. My father is keeping a close watch over me since the incident before. He won't let me get killed. I know this is hard, but you have to keep fighting. You'll find your happy ending someday."

He rubbed my back softly. "Tennan, you are great," I mumbled into his shoulder. I couldn't say the words that held my true feelings, which were that I loved him. Sometimes I wonder how it's possible to love so many people. Maybe it's the hopeless romantic in me, or maybe I misinterpret every strong attraction as love. That string of one night stands I had before Matt made me so unhappy. I considered myself lucky that I'd been able to love at all. I don't even know if I truly loved Matt, or if I was just happy that he had stayed in my life for more than fifteen minutes.

I went for a walk after bringing Heath home from the hospital. I came upon a junkyard. There were piles of discarded things everywhere, some tires, lots of pieces of metal, and even some sparkly gems. I decided to dig through one of the piles to see if I could find anything interesting. I found a lot of scrap metal, but I also found a genie lamp. It was dusty. I couldn't tell how long it had been in there. Why would someone throw this away? Maybe because it was broken? I used my shirt to dust off the lamp, curious if it still worked. Some sparkles came out of the end of it, and then a puff of smoke. A green haired genie appeared in front of me.

"AAH!" He collected himself, stretching his arms above his head. He was very built. I wondered how he could fit all those muscles in that tiny lamp. The smoke and sparkles cleared, and he stood in front of me with a cute smile. His green eyes were surrounded by a layer of eyeliner. He was really handsome.

"Thank you for letting me out of there. You get three wishes, my mistress."
