Hers

Title: Hers

Characters/pairings: Damian/Anita (Damian POV)

My very first drabble for AB fandom. I’m not a native speaker, and I’d appreciate CC and a beta. Posted originally at http://community.livejournal.com/abvh100/

All rights over Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter belongs to Laurell K Hamilton. This piece of fiction has been written for amusement purposes only, and I do not make any profits out of it.

**********

She walks past me, and smiles. A warm manifestation of affection. 

I return the gesture, feeling unexpectedly happy.

I’m real to her now, not merely the unwanted burden thrown in her path.  However, even now, she keeps the distance between us as a shield.

But the hunger is still there, and it doesn’t go away.

Predictably, she backs away, leaving behind the cold fire burning on both our skins.

I can’t blame her. She didn’t ask to be bound to me.

Neither did I, for that matter. But that’s beyond the point.

I’m hers.

One more among those she owns.
