C9 The Morning After

Ender is woken from sleep by something warm and soft against his thighs, slowly opening his eyes, he looks down to see Charlotte between his legs. She smiles provocatively at him as she straddles him and rubs her vulva against his cock which quickly becomes erect. He can feel her juices coating his erection as she rocks herself to and fro, stroking her inner lips and clit against his cock. Holding her hips, Ender pushes her down his shaft and lifts her up before placing his cock at her entrance and pulling her onto him as he thrusts up into her.

Charlotte cries out, the intense pleasure of his cock plunging deep inside her and completely filling her up hastening her orgasm. Placing her hands on his chest, she rocks her hips against him as she rubs her clit against the base of his cock while he teases her nipples. As Ender continues thrusting deep inside her, Charlotte throws her head back, closing her eyes as she bucks and shudders with the intensity of her orgasm while inside her she can feel Ender’s orgasm as his seed spurts inside her.

Collapsing on top of him, she rests her head on his chest as he circles her in his arms, stroking her hair.

"I need to go back to the convent", Ender says softly.

Charlotte looks up at him questioningly, "Why?"

"We need to find out about your past Char, it could be important"

"I understand", she says softly, her eyes flicking away from him, "When will you leave?"

"Now", he replies as he pulls away from her and gets up from the bed.

Charlotte gulps and sits up, worry apparent on her face, "When will you be back?"

"I don't know , maybe a day......or two"

"Maybe I can come with you?"

"No Char, it's too dangerous for you and you're supposed to be dead", he answers firmly, shaking his head, "We can't risk anyone finding out that you're still alive especially anyone at the convent"

"But.....", her voice trails off as she tries to process his sudden departure even if only temporarily.

"You will be safe here with Samael"

Seeing the look of concern on her face when he mentions his brother's name, Ender tries to reassure her, "I know he seems cold but he will keep you safe and he won't hurt you. I trust no one else"

Charlotte stares at him, the seconds passing before reluctantly nodding in agreement and Ender, relieved at this, walks into the bathroom to begin preparing to leave.

The sun is just starting to peek over the horizon as they descend the staircase, Samael is waiting at the front door, immaculately dressed in a suit even at this time of the morning. He doesn't turn around even though he senses Ender and Charlotte behind him, instead waiting for them to reach him.

"How long do you think, brother?", he asks, not looking at him.

"A day or two, depends....", Ender answers as he opens the front door and steps outside, holding Charlotte by the hand with Samael following behind. They reach the car and he turns to Charlotte and kisses her gently on her lips, savoring the taste before turning to Samael.

"You will take care of her", he says, more an order than a request.

Samael says nothing but a look passes between them as if they're speaking without using words and Samael nods. Charlotte looks from one to the other, trying to decipher the look they exchanged but both turn away leaving her with no clue. Ender gets in the car and drives off, leaving Charlotte and Samael standing in the driveway.

"Come sweet Charlotte, we should go inside. Ender will be fine, he is more than capable of looking after himself", Samael says as he offers her his arm. Charlotte hesitates, her eyes studying his face, trying to gage his thoughts but eventually she relents and takes his arm and they both walk back inside.

It's night at the convent and all it's inhabitants are asleep in their rooms as a shadow moves silently through the halls. The only light coming from the moon, casting silver beams through the windows and creating pools of shadow in the corners of the convent halls. The shadowy figure moves confidently through the halls with obvious familiarity, knowing where exactly to go and heads straight to the convent office. Slipping inside the office and emerging an hour later, the dark figure moves silently through the shadows before disappearing into the night.

The next morning, a visitor arrives at the front doors of the convent and is greeted by Sister Ann, who quickly ushers him inside her office.

"Young Master Ender, such a pleasant surprise. What brings you here?", Sister Ann asks once they are comfortably seated in her office. Her eyes shine with genuine delight at the sight of the silver-haired vampire as she offers him a cup of tea.

"I'm here on business but I thought I'd drop by as there was something I wanted to ask about the succubus that was here", he replies in a relaxed and friendly tone.

"Ahh yes", Sister Ann purses her lips, "A rather unfortunate episode that was"

"Were you in residence here when the baby was found?", Ender asks, his tone unchanged.

"No I actually arrived not long after but I remember that it was such a wretched story, I couldn't help but feel for the child. We all did"

"Indeed. Who gave her the name Charlotte Donadieu?", Ender's voice remains friendly but his eyes are shrewd, studying the nun.

"Sister Agnes named her Charlotte but the name Donadieu is a French name given to orphans with unknown parentage who are abandoned at a convent or monastery", Sister Ann explains, her eyes soft with emotion.

Ender nods before asking, "Is it possible for me to speak with Sister Agnes while I'm here?"

"I'm afraid that won't be possible", Sister Ann shakes her head.

"Is she still alive?"

"Yes but she has taken a vow of silence and remains cloistered"
