Warlord Wants Forever by Kresley Cole

Warlord Wants Forever (Immortals After Dark, #0.5)

by Kresley Cole

Nikolai Wroth, once a ruthless human warlord in the 1700s and now a general in the rebel vampire army, needs to find his bride, the one woman who can render him truly alive. As a turned human, he doesn't enjoy a heartbeat or breathing and is consequently weaker than fully blooded vampires. He wants his bride for the power she will bring him and can hardly believe it when his heart beats for Myst the Coveted, a mad, fey, mythological creature.

She eludes him for five years, but he has finally chased her to ground and stolen the jewel which commands her, giving him absolute power over her. While he possesses it, he can make her do anything, and he plans to in order for her to experience firsthand the agonizing, unending lust she'd purposely subjected him to for half a decade. Yet when Wroth realizes he wants more from her and frees her, will she come back to him?

The Warlord Wants Forever is bizarre, but I liked it! Myst is locked in a dungeon when Nikolai Wroth, the warlord, finds her. He wants information from her, she wants to kill him. Fun times. Well, turns out she's his intended bride, and he can be with no woman but her. However, being a Valkyrie, Myst is the sworn enemy of the vampires, so she decides to play with him a bit. She gets him aroused, and then with the help of her sisters, escapes him. Poor Nikolai is now stuck with an erection that cannot be released, except within Myst, but she's nowhere to be found.

Jump ahead five years, and Nikolai should have gone to the emergency room a long time ago. Thankfully he drank Myst's blood, so he can see her memories, and finally puts together where she is, tracks her down, and has his way with her. From there The Warlord Wants Forever gets less strange, but still pretty weird, since Nikolai steals the chain around her waist, which allows him to control her. Of course, being a man who just had a constant boner for five years, I bet you can guess what he makes her do to herself. So yeah, pretty strange stuff. In the end they fall in love in true Paranormal Romance fashion. I do love a happy ending, but I hope the rest of the series isn't this over-the-top.
