trouble nor are you in the position to become one. Not with Marcella. If you become a vampire, Hotness over here can be your master. You never have to answer to anyone, but her. And that’s eternal, so pick your fights wisely. She can make your life a living hell if she wants to. And from what I’ve seen, God help you.” The demon pretended to make a cross over his head and chest. Marcella wasn’t catholic, but she had seen enough to know it was performed in that religion. Damn, he was horrible.
    “Vampire, it is,” Jason said, pulling off his shirt. “If that’s the best way to keep her with me, then I’ll gladly spend eternity by her side.”
    “How sweet,” Dominic said dryly. “Marcella before you go all vamp on me, do me a favor and come here. I need you to attempt to give my souls back. I really don’t want to taste blood at the moment.”
    She looked nervously at Jason. “Now?” she whispered.
    He smiled. “Yes now, and yes, right here where I stand. Jason, come over here, I want you to witness something. You’ll never see this anywhere else. It’s very amazing, actually.”
    Marcella felt her heart drop. Her boyfriend wasn’t going to react well to her kissing another guy, especially a demon he didn’t seem to like.
“What is it?”
    “You’re going to see me try to take the souls Marcella stole from me, back. If I can get them, it’ll be amazing indeed, if not, well it’s still amazing.” His strong arm came around her waist, crushing her breasts against his chest. “I think she’s got the most amazing taste of anyone I’ve ever kissed.”
    Dominic’s lips were suddenly pressed against hers, and his fingers wrapped in her hair. Angrily, she pushed against his shoulders. It was one thing if he seriously wanted the souls, completely different if the act benefited him in hurting Jason.
    The grip tightened, pulling hard. She opened her mouth to scream and she felt a connection to the souls she carried. A warming in her stomach, stirred, making her laugh out loud. Histories, names, ages of the people she carried inside, filtered into her mind.
    “What’s so funny?”
    Marcella leaned back to see Dominic holding Jason still with his gaze. “Let go of him and I’ll tell you.”
    “Damn.” Dominic raised his hands in the air and she turned to see her boyfriend advancing quickly.
    “Both of you stop. I’ve located your souls, Dom.” Her smile instantly fell. Something in her knew she couldn’t give them back. Even if she wanted to, which she didn’t, it was impossible. They were hers now until her body knew what to do with them.
    “First off, don’t call me Dom. He pulled her toward him again and she quickly covered his mouth making her kiss her own hand. “I can’t give them back,” she whispered.
    “What do you mean, you can’t give them back? Can’t or won’t?” He squeezed her tighter against his body.
    “Both. I can’t, and really wouldn’t want to if I could. They’re a part of me now. ”
“Fuck!”
    Every window shattered with his shout. The pressure of energy pushed against her skin with a force that terrified her. Marcella instantly fell to the floor, not expecting her weight, as he let go. His tall form stalked toward the back of the house. Jason quickly helped her up. “Marcy, we need to get out of here.”
    “No, he’ll find us. It’s pointless. Let him calm down. He’s just upset now. We’ll think of something.”
    “You don’t owe this guy anything. How did you get the souls to begin with?”
    Marcella looked up at Jason, remembering Dominic’s lips pressed against hers in a kiss to silence her yelling. She didn’t know what to say.
    “Did you kiss him?” A hurt look darkened his face.
    “Jason, it’s not what you think. I was yelling at him and he kissed me to silence my screams.”
    “And she loved every minute of it, couldn’t get enough. You should have seen how her body responded to mine. We have chemistry like you wouldn’t
