The dinner was amazing, and Charlie was happy with her dessert as well. Even when the food. was eaten, they lingered at the table, enjoying the white wine Vidar had picked out. Again they talked. Charlie couldn’t remember when she had talked so much to another person. The most amazing thing was it didn’t feel like they were trying to work through the usual list of topics when two people tried to get to know each other. There was no checklist of topics to cover. They just talked about whatever came their way. Vidar reached out and took her hand.
“How about we move to the couch?” he asked.
“I would like that,” she agreed. They blew out the candles and Vidar came around the table. and kissed her as he took her wineglass from her. He kissed her again, deeper this time. When Charlie wrapped her arms around his neck, he gripped her ass and lifted her up. Charlie wrapped her legs around his waist.
“You have to grab the wineglasses, baby. My hands are full,” he said when they drew apart and he squeezed her ass. Charlie giggled and reached down to grab the glasses. It thrilled her he held her like she weighed nothing despite her leaning over.
“Do you know how much of a turn on this is?” she asked as he was walking through the kitchen with her in his arms.
“Which part? Being in my arms? My hands on your ass? You rubbing against me?” he asked
her back.
“All of the above,” she told him.
“Youthful lust,” he needled her. “Put the glasses down,” he told her as he stood by the coffee table. Again, she leaned down. When she was done, Vidar sat down on the couch, and lowered himself back so he was laying back on the couch with Charlie spread out on top of him.
“Vidar, you need to scoot over if I am going to fit,” she pointed out.
“You are precisely where you need to be,” he said, letting one of his hands run up and down her spine. Charlie gave off a small sigh and relaxed down on top of him, her legs hanging

down on each side of him. It could easily have been a good position to start something more
t
sexual. But the way Vita’s hands moved made Charlie put all those thoughts to the side.
“Can I ask you something Briannal?” she asked after a while.
“You can ask me anything you want, he told her again.
“Do you have any children? Vidar’s hand stilled for a moment before resuming its path.
“Where did that come from?” he asked.
“I don’t know. You we owe a thousand years old and we have already established you weren’t a virgin when we has sex I know you told me children only happen when the same species get to gather fut a weens unlikely you haven’t been with another vampire. And since contraceptives weren’t a thing when you were younger. Well, it all just added up. I’m not judging or anything. I just want to know if I can expect some awkward meeting with your
child that is wine hundred of years older than me,” she said. She felt Vidar’s chest move as
he tried to hold back his laughter.
“What I wouldn’t pie to spend a day in that mind of yours,” he chuckled. Then he made her
look up at him and he kissed her. “No children. I have, what did you call it? Got together?
With other vampires. But contrary believes, we did have means to protect ourselves. Maybe
cany in sale as now days. But they were effective, especially since we have a hard time
to conceive man when we want to.”
“Is there a possibility you have children you don’t know about?” she asked. She knew she was asking personal meations, but when she started, she couldn’t stop herself. “You don’t need to
answer,” she added. He smiled down at her and kissed her again.
“No. When a vangits mentes a parent, we know. Even if we are on the other side of the
globe. Some speculate it’s because we rarely have offspring, so when we do, both parents need to work together to protect the child. Henry had it happen to him. He didn’t know he had impregnated another samples. He describes the feeling like someone had turned on the light in a part of his he didn’t know he had, Vidar explained.
“What happened?” Charlie asked

“He tracked down the mother and baby and, even though they had no romantic feeling
toward each other, they stayed together until his daughter was an adult. Then they came back together when she had her Great understanding,” he told her.
“That sounds very mature and healthy,” she said.
“Children will come before anything else. If they had done anything else, they would have
been shunned by the community. For a child, everything else is put to the side.”
“As it should be,” she said.
“Yes,” he agreed. “How about you? Any children?” he asked. Charlie laughed.
“You don’t fool me, Mr Bad ass mafia boss. You probably have done a thoroughly enough background check on me to know how many pretend dogs I had when I was a child,” she told him. He joined in the laughter.
“True enough. I still like to hear you tell me.”
“I don’t have any. I’m satisfied with my nephews, at least for now,” she told him.
“Those two teddy eating shrimps?” he asked, and Charlie remembered the picture she had.
sent him.
“Yeah. They are absolutely adorable.”
“They get it from their aunt,” Vidar said, kissing her nose. “Are they from a surrogate?” he
asked.
“No. they don’t have any genetic connection to neither Huxton nor Tyson. Their parents were a teenage couple. They had considered adoption from the start, and when they found out they were expecting twins, they panicked. They were really nice and sweet, but not ready for a baby, and even less for two,” she told him. He nodded. They laid in silence, watching each other. Charlie liked she was just as comfortable with Vidar in silence as she was when they were talking. No matter what they did, they enjoyed being around each other.
“So, what can I expect tomorrow?” Vidar asked. Charlie studied him for a moment. She

almost thought it was just a curious question. But then she saw the slight tension at the corners of his eyes and his lips looked a little thinner.
“Are you nervous?” she asked and raised one of her hands to gently rub her thumb on the outside of his eyes. He sighed.
“A little,” he confessed.
“Don’t be. I’ll be there and I promise not to leave you,” she told him. “My brother will most likely try to intimidate you. But I think you can handle that. Tyson will be curious and ask a lot of questions. He will probably be cool, unless he thinks you have, or will, cause me issues, then he will probably try to kick your ass,” she continued.
“He’s the former MMA fighter?” Vidar asked.
“Yeah. But he really is a big teddy bear,” she told him. “And, as I told you, the key is to get the twins to like you. Their dads can’t resist a cute moment,” she reminded him.
“They are just toddlers. How am I going to make them like me?” Vidar asked.
“Stick with me and I’ll show you,” she promised. Charlie tried to hold back a yawn, but the last couple of days had been draining and she felt so relaxed. Vidar smiled.
“Time for bed,” he told her. She just nodded and regretfully got up and took the still half full. glasses. Vidar got up and took them from her. “I’ll take care of this. Get ready for bed,” he told her and gave her a kiss.
“You always do the cleaning. Is it because you’re a secret neat freak and don’t trust me to do it?” she asked. He chuckled and kissed her cheek.
“No. It’s because I want to take care of you. You haven’t had anyone who has done that for
you
in a long time and I like doing it,” he said. Charlie felt her heart ache, and she wrapped her arms around him and drew him into a kiss. She could feel his surprise and then he
responded and kissed her back. The kiss quickly went from romantic to scolding hot. Vidar broke apart and put the glasses down. “They can wait until tomorrow,” he said. He then picked Charlie up, and she happily wrapped her legs around him. “Couch, floor or wall?” he
asked after another hot round of make out..

“Huh?” she answered. Her brain was foggy from all of the amazing kissing.
“Baby, we’re not going to make it to bed. Do you prefer the couch, the floor or against a wall?” he asked again. His voice had become darker than usual. Charlie bit down on her bottom lip while she thought about it. Vidar watched every movement of her lips.
“Floor,” she told him, and a grin spread over his face.
“Excellent choice,” he said. Without letting her go, he took them down onto the floor and onto the soft rug. Again, Charlie found herself spread out over Vidar. He started tugging at her clothes, and she did the same with him. During the wild wrestling match with clothes going everywhere and more than one of her things being ripped to pieces, Vidar ended up on top of her. Charlie guided his cock inside her. The last coherent thought she had was that it had been the perfect day.
