**Chapter 10: Betrayal**
**Laura**
Luckily, the straps broke before the bedposts. Emma was curled on the bed, her mouth still kissing the wound on Laura’s arm. Occasionally, she would give the cut a long lick and clean it again. The bleeding had slowed considerably, but Laura was weak and dizzy — be it from blood loss or the orgasm she wasn’t sure. Her chest heaved slowly, and her eyes drooped as she stared at Emma.
The silver haired vampire had lost a human element to her face. She normally looked vacant and adorable, but now she was focused, almost catlike, as she nuzzled and licked Laura. Laura noticed that Emma’s bright green eyes almost flickered to silver or purple, depending on how the light caught them.
Emma had tried to be gentle and slow at first. She restrained herself, hoping that would keep her from losing control, but in the end the straps and bedpost proved to be nothing to her. She hadn’t gone completely feral, but when Laura tried to tease her, Emma was not amused. She broke her straps quickly and pinned Laura to the bed. For a moment, the briefest moment, Laura thought Emma might end her. But of course she didn’t. Emma was too weak for it. It appeared every vampire in this house was too weak.
