Luther's Return (Scanguards Vampires Book 10)

“You can’t be in—”

“I’m a gift from your colleagues, honey,” she interrupted and brought her hands to her breasts, cupping them. “They said you like to play with bad girls like me. And I’m a real bad girl.” She pouted. “So, are you gonna punish me for being in here without your permission?”

Luther swallowed hard. Fuck! Was Katie acting? He sure couldn’t tell! She looked like she meant it.

“Do you wanna touch ‘em?” she continued seducing the dumbstruck guard. Her fingers slowly, deliberately worked the front of her bra. When she finally dropped her hands, her bra fell open in the front, revealing her ample breasts.

Paralyzed, Luther stared at the unexpected sight. His mouth went dry, and his heart stopped beating.

“Fuck!” the guard grunted and took a few steps toward her. “Are you for real?”

Katie brought her hands to her breasts and squeezed them. “Don’t you wanna sink your fangs into these babies?”

“Yeah!” Bauer appeared to salivate. “That’s what I’m talking about.”

Over his fucking dead body!

Luther leapt from his hiding place and jumped toward the vampire guard before he could reach Katie and dig his dirty fangs into her perfect breasts. Before Bauer had time to turn around, Luther pulled the guard’s UV gun from the holster and directed the concentrated UV blast at the other vampire’s face. The full load hit him in the eyes. A blood-curdling scream came from Bauer and he jerked his hands up to his face to shield it from the attack, but it was too late. Luther had already blinded him.

He aimed another shot at Bauer’s open mouth, singeing his lips, tongue and throat so severely that he wouldn’t be able to speak until after his regenerative sleep cycle. His vision would eventually return, too.

Luther lowered the gun, then pushed the disoriented vampire down. He landed on the ground, whimpering now in obvious pain, unable to speak.

“Oh my God!” Katie murmured.

Luther shot her a look, ran his eyes over her. She was uninjured. For a split-second, he drank in the sight of her naked breasts and felt a bolt hit him in the groin. She was beautiful. So goddamn beautiful.

“Get dressed.”

Luther averted his eyes and looked back at the vampire on the floor. “Bauer, you know I could kill you, and I will if I have to. It depends on you. Here’s how this works: I’ll take your protective gear and your access card, and you won’t struggle. Resist, and you’ll die. If you understand me, raise one hand.”

The guard lifted his right hand in a one-finger salute, grunting as he did so.

“Big mistake!”

Luther pointed the UV gun at his groin. “I’ll let you guess where I’m pointing your weapon now.” He jammed the gun between Bauer’s thighs.

The guard instantly jerked away, and a second later he raised his hand again, this time without flipping him the bird.

“I’m glad we understand each other,” Luther said and looked back at Katie. Her T-shirt now covered her torso again, and she was putting on her cardigan. “Point the gun at him while I get the Kevlar gear off him. If he tries anything, blast his balls. Just make sure you don’t hit me.”

Katie took the gun from him. “With pleasure.”

It took less then thirty seconds for Luther to liberate Bauer from his protective gear and another thirty to put it on himself. Then he used the silver handcuffs on the vampire’s belt to cuff him to a steel filing cabinet, being careful not to touch the silver with his bare hands, but donning gloves first.

When he was done, Luther glanced around the room until he found what he was looking for: the protective head gear that would shield him should anybody deploy the UV lights in the corridors. It would also help him avoid detection. Dressed like a guard in full battle gear, nobody would be able to tell who he really was. In the chaos of an intruder alert nobody would take much notice of him.

Which only left one slight problem: how was he going to get Katie out of here without anybody stopping him?

“What are we waiting for?” Katie asked nervously.

“Do you think you can do a little bit more acting?”

“What do you want me to do?”

“I need you to pretend you’re a hooker, just like you did earlier.”

It was the only way other guards wouldn’t see her as a threat and look the other way instead. It was an unwritten code in the prison: prostitutes were tolerated and considered a side business for many guards. With some luck, any guard Luther encountered wouldn’t bother him if he thought Luther was simply trying to get a hooker out of the prison before there was a general lockdown.

“You want me to take off my bra?” Katie asked.
