Marriage Of Deception-Chapter 3

" My beautiful Desiree', have you forgotten so soon? " Marcus was so
handsome, so regal..like a king amongst his loyal subjects. " Don't you
remember being married to me this very afternoon? You were the most
lovely bride Fredericksburg has ever witnessed. We're at our wedding
reception, surrounded by family, friends, and guests. " Instruments
were being fine tuned. " I've instructed the musicians to play your
favorite song,
' The Viennese Waltz. ' This first dance belongs to us alone. "

Marcus gathered my hand in his as he waltzed me across the floor. The
longer we danced, the more my memories came flooding back. My family
had all but disowned me and I was shipped off to a private girl's
school in Europe. Circumstances changed and my Uncle Joshua properly
introduced me to Marcus as my tutor in the autumn of 1875, right after
he had graduated from the University Of Fredericksburg. He was dashing
and debonair, having his pick of any girl in the world, but he chose
me. There weren't any serious suitors before Marcus, but I'd made a
good friend aboard my uncle's clipper ship, Goddess Of The Sea..his
name was Phillipe and although I was fond of him, I could never love
him in the same way that I loved Marcus. I never told my Father or my
sister, Bethanie of our engagement or marriage, because I felt it was
none of their concern and Marcus agreed.

I was happy with Marcus. He swept me off my feet in a whirlwind romance
and we married one month to the day after we met..the very day that I
turned 18, October 17th. It was the largest wedding that Fredericksburg
had ever witnessed and Marcus spared no expense. I had no one close by
to invite, but all of his friends and relatives were in attendance. He
was dressed in a black mourning coat and black trousers, while I wore a
wedding dress made especially for me in Paris..white satin overlaid
with white lace and seed pearls sewn in rosette patterns on the bodice.
The bridal bouquet held wine ed roses and white baby's breath to
symbolize passion and purity and my sheer lace veil was imported from
Italy.

Marcus stood at the alter with an everlasting smile on his face and in
his heart, waiting to hear the words, "I do, " fall from my virgin
lips.
I remembered this part of Heaven on earth..my birthday and wedding
day.
" I love you Marcus, " I whispered as tears of joy welled in my
eyes.
" You've made me the happiest woman in the world. "

Marcus kissed me soundly on my mouth, in full view of all the invited
guests who'd become witnesses to the biggest surprise Fredericksburg
had ever seen. " Now is the first time for us to dance as man and wife.
" Marcus led me into the Grand Ballroom and the string quartet
played
' The Vienese Waltz. ' With my hand in his, time drifted away. He
guided me across the floor..we were the music, our bodies a dance of
love in motion, gliding with no effort involved. Marcus whispered in my
ear, " It won't be long until our wedded pledge of love unites us in
heart, soul, body, and blood for all eternity, making me the most
fortunate man alive. "

The early afternoon hours gave way to late evening..Marcus clapped his
hands to gain everyone's attention. The waiters brought glasses of
French champagne for each of the guests..he raised his glass and
proposed a toast. " To the most beautiful and desirable woman in
Fredericksburg. My love is only for you, my new bride! "

We drank and more was poured so I could offer a toast of my own. " To
my husband Marcus, the man I've waited for all my life. " We entwined
our arms to drink and liquid happiness seeped from my eyes. " I'll love
you forever, Marcus. "

He kissed me on the lips in front of everyone, then took my hand and
winked. " My family and friends, it's close to the midnight hour. In
honor of my wife, I've renamed our home Castle Desiree'. My bride and I
will take our leave of you now. " We walked a few steps and Marcus
turned around.
" Please continue with the reception and merrymaking, though. "

He led the way upstairs to the rooms we'd share as man and wife. I
thought, this is my home now, the castle of my dreams. I couldn't ask
for more, but I was wrong. The bridal suite was my fantasy come to
life! The canopied bed was made of rosewood, its strongly marked grain
giving off a reddish hue. The sheets were pure white satin, cool and
inviting, the cover a deep burgundy that matched the canopy." Oh
Marcus, these are my favorite colors. How did you know? "

He laughed. " I have my ways of finding out all I need to know, my
sweet Desiree'! Now is the time we'll come to know one another in the
way a man knows a woman. " He handed me a goblet of wine. " A private
toast to you, Desiree'. You've managed to capture what no other woman
has or ever will..all my love. " We drank the intoxicating cordial and
Marcus held me close to his strongly beating heart.

" Marcus, you certainly know how to win a girl's heart. " There was no
warmth in his kiss as his tongue gently probed for entrance into my
mouth.
We tasted each other's sweet nectar and our tongues danced a tangoed
waltz that only the two of us would ever share.

He slowly turned me around, untying the red velvet sash at my waist,
bending towards my neck while pushing my hair aside..his mouth felt
like glacier ice as his lips came into contact with the warmth of my
skin, scalding me, leaving me breathless while my burning blood
smoldered. His hands deftly unbuttoned my wedding day/birthday gown and
my body trembled in that one embraced moment because I didn't know what
he expected from me. His frozen fingertips explored my back in icy
caresses from my shoulders down to my waist, yet my body reacted as
though I'd been seared by red-hot coals..he slipped the silky material
the rest of the way off my body and it landed at my feet in a soft
whisper.

Marcus picked me up and carried me to our marriage bed, speaking in
soothing tones. " My Darling, you please my eyes when you blush in
red-blooded passion! " His lips of steel offered no body heat as they
found their way to the bare skin on the upper part of my left breast..I
felt a moment of pain and then exquisite pleasure as my heart's life
force formed the letter
' M ' in that exact spot, his brand on me, telling the world that I
belonged to him now and forever. Marcus gazed deeply into my soul, his
fangs and lips now hot with and from my blood. He offered me a cup of
bright red liquid, a concoction tasting like sweet honey from the bees
and salty Atlantic Ocean waters. His fate rested in my hands as I
received his heart and blood..all of his thoughts, emotions, needs,
wants, and desires raced through my veins, revealing themselves to my
soul. Our minds linked together..I had to willingly supply Marcus with
my innocent life force each and every day or he would cease to
exist.

His blood was good to the last drop, and I craved to have his body join
with mine, becoming the one flesh of man and wife.
" Marcus? " My voice cracked with nervousness and my shaking hands made
it impossible for me to undo any fastenings. His fingers quickly went
about their duties and I assumed this wasn't his first experience with
unlacing corsets. His eyes never left mine as he removed the rest of my
clothing..my naked glory, which no man had ever seen or touched, was
displayed for my loving husband.

He drew me close, stroking my back as his lips and tongue leisurely
explored my mouth at great length, then his bruising passion demanded
that I give my very essence to him. Tidal waves of delight coursed
through my body, leaving me with no resistance to his physical
advances. I tasted his warmth, savoring all the sweetness his mouth had
to offer. My breathing came in short gasps as the minutes ticked by.
When he withdrew from my lips, I felt abandoned, all alone in the
world. " Marcus, don't leave me like this, " I moaned low in my
throat.

" My Darling Desiree', you must provide me with more of your own life
force. "

" Marcus, all of me belongs exclusively to you..take what you want.
"

He smiled sadly. " Sweet Wife, I know this. I need just enough
nourishment to stay warm and fan the flames of desire you have for me.
" I grew weaker as Marcus fed from my breast, but my body was
overwhelmed with rising passion. " Show me how to want and need only
you, Marcus! "

With no hesitation his hands squeezed the mark on my left
breast..covering my body in Blood, he softly crooned. " Now I'll feast
on you, my Darling Desiree'. His eyes glazed in red thoughts as he
licked and swallowed my life force, his lips finding the pulse points
on my neck, branding me as his sole possession, a fact which no one
could deny!

His hands journeyed to my breasts, tenderly caressing, rubbing, and
massaging both of them. His glorious mouth and tongue nibbled, tasted
and teased, enjoying each minute. My swollen nipples were rigid, but
hardened into rocks when he sucked on them. Shockwaves of pleasure
moved swiftly through my molten veins as Marcus pinched them between
his thumbs and index fingers. " Your nipples are a fine vintage wine,
the flavor of fresh strawberries. " Marcus sighed. " I could do this
forever. "

My belly glowed hotter than the blazing noontime sun as his magic touch
added fuel to the lava fires at the core of my body. His caresses felt
like butterfly wings, barely touching, knowing full well that my
passion called for more. His winter mouth and tongue bathed my inner
thighs as he murmured bonding words of love to me. His hands swiftly
parted my legs, my body his to do with as he pleased. I felt no shame
as I allowed his fingers free access to touch me in places no man had
been privy to before. He slowly slid one finger inside my slippery
body, while his tongue drew circles around my nipple, teasing it to
taughtness..there were no thoughts to be had, only sheer feelings of
enjoyment and delight. When Marcus slipped two of his strong slender
fingers into the cavity of my being, I matched the rhythm of his slow
sensual motion.

His reverence was focused on my reactions. " My Delicious Desiree',
your first joy is the physical gratification of me making love to you.
" His sweet mouth and tongue swirled shockwave kisses of desire on my
moistness, the sensitive spot that craved his touch. " Do you want
more? " His voice was personified pleasure.

" Yes, Marcus, make love to me. " I thought of nothing else.

" You're so tasty Desiree', I'm going to eat you up." His hands spread
my womanhood far apart as he thrust his hungry tongue into my body,
causing
sensational explosions to my nerve endings.

" Oh God, Marcus! " I screamed his name as my body jerked and spasmed
in utter fulfillment. " When my breathing slowed, I asked " Is this
what it feels like to become a woman? "

" You're not a complete woman until you lose your virginity,
my Sweet Wife. " His eyes were dark with pentup desire. " Do you have
any idea what a man looks like unclothed? "

" No, Marcus, you're the first man..the only man I'll see. " He touched
my cheek.

" Then I'll give you the honor of undressing me. " I helped him out of
his mourning coat and he kissed me tenderly. " I never want you to be
shy with me, Desiree'. I'm your husband and you're my wife..we must
promise to give each other only pleasure, never pain. "

The windows of my soul showed him how much I loved and trusted him.
Boldness pulsed in my bloodstream and I unbuttoned the white silk shirt
he wore, kissing his bare skin. His chest was smooth and pale, his
nipples reddish brown in color. He read my thoughts. " Touch and kiss
me anywhere you choose, my Dearest..that way your love for me will
deepen and expand into other areas of our lives. "

I removed his shirt..he was brutally handsome, his back broad at the
shoulders and narrowed at his waist. My hands came into full body
contact and I rubbed his chest, enjoying the way his skin responded to
my fingertips. I melted into the depths of his eyes, wanting to
pleasure him in the same way he had pleasured me. I breathed in the
scent of his skin as his nipples yielded to the pressure of my mouth,
exciting me. His blood pumped through my arteries, bringing intimate
messages of truth to my brain. My emotions and body were in a strong
state of arousal as my life force raced merrily through his veins,
calling me to retreive it. I welcomed wild temptation and threw caution
to the wind as I bit down with a vengance on his jugular vein, tasting
my own blood.

He removed his trousers and underwear..I felt no shame in wanting to
gaze upon his nakedness. Majestic in his magnificence, he was a lion
king wanting his lioness. I was greedy for him to be inside of me and I
let my mouth explore and worship at his male temple. I moved up and
down on the taste and feel of his frozen hardness and he groaned.
" You must stop, Desiree'! It's essential that we consumate our
marriage while the full moon is shining. "

I slowly removed my mouth from him, his maleness still warmly
throbbing. He picked me up and laid me on the white satin
sheets..visions of red joined us in our marriage dance of love,
waltzing in my mind and soul. " My husband, my love, possess me fully!
"
Passions and wild emotions over which he had no control were triggered
inside of my lion king. He wouldn't be stopped in his pursuit or denied
the conjugal rights to his lioness. With gentle roughness he pulled my
legs apart, entering my virgin's body with strong hard thrusts, making
me his wife, his lioness queen!

I pierced the night with all the pain and pleasure he brought forth,
burning sensations to last a lifetime. His voice was ragged as he
withdrew.
" Remember this, my wife, my Desiree'..the blood of your virginity is
my strength, more precious than wealth, fame or life everlasting. " He
moved his head and mouth to my lost innocence and drank freely.

His eyes were black, tinged in red as he plunged his swollen manhood
into my woman's sex, spewing forth his seed..ecstacy crashed over me in
shimmering waves, consuming me again and again in pleasure " Desiree',
we are truly one in heart, soul, body, and blood..man and wife, forever
and always. "

We held each other for a while, in the afterglow of love. Marcus moved
off the bed for a minute, then helped me sit up. He had a huge smile on
his face as he handed me a glass of blackberry wine. " This should
relieve any pain you feel, my Darling, helping you relax and sleep." I
drank all of it, and with sheer happiness in my heart and soul, kissed
my wonderful husband, and fell fast asleep in his arms.
