Whispers of the Past Chapter5]
Sylvanos gently kissed Tala back. "I love you with all my heart and soul." He whispered holding her close.
Hean watched from his perch
"Oh Sylvanos" she blushed and kissed him again her eyes fluttered close as she melted into the warm embrace of his arms. It felt so right being like this with him, she never felt this pounding in her heat before. Her lips danced across his as they kissed slow ad sensually.
He held her tenderly, lovingly. Slowly deepening the kiss.
Tala slid her hands up his broad shoulders and wrapped her arms around his neck as they kissed this is what it was meant to feel like this is truly what it was meant to feel like.
He gently wrapped his arms around her deepening the kiss
Tala suddenly blushed as she felt herself fall back against the bed and laying under him but it felt so right.
He blushed pulling back enough to gaze lovingly into her eyes. "Tala...I can't imagine I life without you..."
"I thought about it all last night I, I wouldn't be happy with that other man, your who I want in my life. Your the one who makes my heart sing with love. I'm so sorry I didnt see it before I love you I want to be with you" she said gazing up at him.
He held her close as though in thanks and relief. "I love you with my heart and soul."
"Oh Sylvanos I.. I love you with all my heart and soul as well" she said sweetly and pulled him down kissing him deeply once more.
He returned to kiss a hand gently tilting her chin up. He pulled from the kiss and kissed her neck lovingly.
Tala gasped and blushed softly at the feeling. "Oh Sylvanos" she moaned softly.
"I love you, my heart."
"I love you to" She whispered softly loving the feeling as she plunged her hand in his rich long locks of hair.
He blushed nuzzling her gently as his kissed her neck and gently massaged her back
Tala giggled nuzzling him gently as well and sighed happily at the feeling as he kissed her neck. It felt so good.
He held her close. "I want you happy."
"I am happy when I'm with you I'm so happy when I'm with you, my heart sings when I'm with you" she said burying herself against him.
He held her close gently kissing her neck
Tala blushed and sighed happily at the feeling, it felt so good. She loved the feeling of his hands on her all of this felt so right.
"I love you Tala...I am sorry...but I can't let you be with someone else. It would kill me if I lost you."
"I will send word to Killigan that the arrangement is off, I am yours and yours alone Sylvanos your the most important thing to me in this life now and I want to belong to no one but you I want to be your special someone."
"You are my special someone...will you honor me by marrying me?" He asked bringing out a beautiful claddagh ring. It was silver with a large green emerald heart. scrawled in the inner band in Gaelic were the words: "I am my beloved and my beloved is mine"
Tala gasped putting her hands over her mouth. "Oh Sylvanos yes!" she jumped into his arms hugging him tight.
He held her tightly and kissed her sliding the ring on her finger. "I love you beloved."
"And I love you my beloved" she said softly. It felt so right to be wearing that ring, his ring.
He held her close and gently kissed her. He seemed less tired and more healthy
Tala kissed him back wrapping her arms around his neck as they kissed she was so happy.
He held her close deepening the kiss
Tala kissed him passionately caressing his cheeks as they made out with one another. She moved so she was straddling his lap as they kissed with such fiery passion.
He blushed running a gentle loving hand up the back of her shirt as he kissed her neck
Tala moaned softly loving the feeling as he continued to work her neck.
"I love you with all my heart."
"And I love you with all my heart" she sighed happily.
He held her close with a smile
Tala giggled burying herself in his arms.
He nuzzled her neck and kissed it
Tala sighed happily in his arms.
He held her lovingly
Tala never wanted that moment to end
"What made you change your mind?"
"With the help of a little bird" was all she said with a loving smile as she gazed up at him. "I put alot of thinking into it Sylvanos" she said lovingly. "And I know this is the right choice" she caressed his cheek and kissed him
He kissed back
Tala sighed happily kissing him deeply her body felt so alive when their lips were locked like this together.
He smiled
Tala curled up against his chest not knowing what to say just wanting to be held by him.
He held her and kissed the top of her head. "I am the luckiest man in existence. Thank you for loving me."
"And I am the Luckiest woman, thank you for loving me in return" she said lovingly gazing up at him.
He smiled and kissed her. "I will protect you."
"Oh Sylvanos" she sighed softly as she melted into the kiss with him.
He held her close.
"I'm not keeping you from something am I?" she asked worriedly knowing he was busy man.
There came a knock on the main door.
He shook his head then glanced up. "Company again..."
Tala got up and gave a little giggle, she had to admit they hadn't been doing to much and it didn't seem like anything was going to happen soon so company was alright. "That's alright their is nothing wrong with company" she said playfully.
he smiled. "I want to take it slow and make sure you are ready..."He whispered as though reading her thoughts. A troubled look passed along his features. "Whoever they are they seem to need help."
She blushed softly and smiled at him about the first part then looked at him curiously. "Alright well I never turn away a person in need lets go see what is wrong."
"Shall we investigate it than?"
"Yes lets" she said lovingly and gently took his arm as they headed off to find out what was going on.
They reached the door
Tala got up on her tiptoes and looked through the peephole of her front door.
She saw a young girl and boy they looked worried, the girl was the lead singer of a local band
She also noticed that the boy looked familiar.
She had seen them play at Demon's club a couple of times before. She opened the door. "Hi there what brings you two to my doorstep?" she asked in the sweet kind tone of hers.
The boy looked at her. He wasn't from the band, but his face was so familiar. He had black hair that came down to his shoulders with a strike of red in the front. The complete opposite of Whisper. But he looked like Whisper.
"Please...Ryu is a friend of yours...or at least he said he knew you...he has been kidnapped! He said you are a fae...please..
.I think some other vampires took him!" Raya said tears in her eyes.
Ryu was a friend of hers, she even knew he was the true heir to the vampires and knew about his past.
"Oh heavens that is aweful! come in come in quickly" she said moving out of the way letting them in. "Sylvanos could you take them to the sitting room I do not want to bother Elda and Whisper in the Livingroom." she said looking up at him.
Seanna purred. "I like that." she said kissing Rainier's chest.
A deep rumble came from his chest and throat, something that she knew was purely this man. "Mmmm it deffinantly fits you baby" he purred out.
She smiled. "What should I call you lover?"
"Thats for you to decide sweetheart" he said nuzzling her.
"My warrior."
"I would be honored if you called me that" he said softly gazing deeply into her eyes.
She blushed with a smile and nodded
"I love it almost as much as I love you" he said playfully and lovingly pulling her into a kiss.
She kissed back running a hand gently along his ribs
He groaned happily as they laid there making out, slow and luxuriously.
She smiled and kissed his collarbone,
"your having fun" he purred out happily laying there under her.
She blushed and looked down at him with her emerald eyes. They were tinged with violet due to her passion. "Is that bad?"
"Mmm no my darling far from it" he purred out seductively gazing up at her, his eyes had that soft golden glow to them that he got when he was filling with passion.
She smiled and gently nipped his shaft with her teeth
Rainier groaned deeply at the feeling. "Hell woman you know what I like" he purred laying there
She blushed deeply. "I...feel like...we were made for each other."
"I feel that to Seanna as if we were forged from the same mold to be each other's matches" he said lovingly caressing her cheek
She smiled and kissed him
Rainier curessed her in his arms as he kissed her back.
She smiled snuggling into him
Rainier stroked her hair as he laid there basking in the heaven that was her.
She smiled. "I love you. When I am with you I know I am safe."
"I am glad to know that, and promise you will always feel that my demoness" he purred out stroking her hair.
She smiled and kissed his chest
Rainier laid there basking in the feeling of having her. This woman in his arms truely meant something to him.
She smiled. "What are you thinking?'
"Wondering how long it will be until I get the marks" he said softly. "My mating marks" he purred out nuzzling her cheek. As if right on cue suddenly marks painted themselves over his body beautiful black marks that seem to shimmer with life on his skin. "There we go thats what I'm talking about" he chuckled. "When one of our kind is truely mated to a woman, we bare the marks that we are a taken man." he smiled.
"Should I get marks?"
"I really don't know my love remember I may be old as dirt but even I have never seen a female Gancanagh, there has never been one. So while I may carry the marks you may not" he said laying there watching her.
Oh..."She lay against him and snuggled close. He noticed delicate markings on the back of her neck that translated to his full name
"Oh well now would you look at that" he moved her hair out of the way and gently caressed the markings. "Yours aren't as ornate as mine but they are there" he purred happily seeing them. "In ancient demon text my ancient name on your neck" he said loving the idea that she was his.
She smiled and kissed him happily.
Rainier kissed her back caressing her silken hair. After a few moments he pulled back and gazed into her eyes. "Thank you for coming into my life" he said softly.
She smiled. "Thank you for doing the same and letting me."
Rainier smiled lovingly down at her. "I love you" he whispered.
She smiled and kissed him
Rainier buried his hand in her hair kissing her deeply
She kissed back and stroked his back
Rainier felt his inner demon hungering for his mate again, playfully he rolled her over on her back as they made out.
She smiled and kissed him
"How is it you drive me wild?" he asked playfully pulling his mouth off of hers gazing down at her with his smoldering eyes.
"You do the same to me..."
"Do I now?" he asked lovingly and playfully gazing down at her.
She blushed and kissed him nibbling on his lower lip. "Very much so."
"Mmmm wonderful" he said happily kissing her deeply as they laid there together.
She smiled and gently raked her nails across his chest
Rainier groaned in pleasure digging his nails into the bed under her. "Oooh that feels good" he purred out holding himself above her. "Your going to start something your going to have to finish if you keep that up" he said seductively as she saw his eyes semi shift.
She grinned up at him with a seductive look. Already her eyes were purple. "Who says that isn't my intention?"
"Ooooh you vixen you" he purred out as he let him self go a bit his eyes fully shifting over as he kissed her deeply.
She kissed back and scraped her nails along his chest a little deeper this time
Rainier groaned deeply in pleasure in his throat as he made out with her, he pulled his lips back. "I have to have you" he groaned out as his skin shimmered wanting to shift to his demon form needing to claim her.
She smiled. With a blush she lowered her head over his manhood and paused. "I...want to try something...if I am no good than stop me..."She whispered. She took his manhood as far as she could in her mouth at the same time she swirled her tongue along it.
Rainier cried out in pleasure digging his nails which were shifting slowly into claws into the bed under him. "Oh in hell's name yes!" He moaned deeply.
She seemed like she took that as permission to continue and began to become a little more aggressive
He couldn't hold himself back his body shifted over into his demon form and with that his manhood did grow in her mouth. He arched his back and howled out in pleasure.
She moved over to her demon form and became a little more passionate
Rainier moaned deeply in pleasure laying there under her his claws digging into the bed. "By the pits of darkness" he grunted out.
She pulled away and than sat down on his manhood allowing it to thrust into her, she began to ride him animalistically
His hands went to her hips as he gripped her tight in sheer ecstasy.
She raked his chest with her nails as she picked up momentum
Rainier cried out in pleasure as she rode him as he panted out in pleasure enjoying the moment between him, he felt so satisfied inside. he felt so deliciously full from the sex between him and his mate. this was how it was supposed to be.
Elda stirred and checked on Whisper who still slept
Elda noticed that Nadya was nowhere to be seen.
"Nadya?!"
No answer.
She frantically searched for her daughter
There was no sign of her anywhere.
I will have your daughter again. Her and her lover Rasmus heard in his head.
I will rip you to shreds before I let that happen he growled mind to mind against who he knew to be the evil king now.
You can try. Liam belongs to me, as does that daughter of yours.
Like hell!! he snarled viciously in his mind.
He heard laughter
Rasmus growled softly to himself.
The sounds vanished
"He's still after my daughter and her lover" he said softly looking at Nemesis.
"Then we will protect them..."
"Yes we must" suddenly one of the babes began to cry. Rasmus climbed out of bed without question like a good father and went to go soothe his child.
He noticed with horror one of the boys was gone
"No...No no no no..." Tears filled his eyes as anger filled him. "Who could have done this?" he snarled softly to himself so not to scare his other children. He then turned to his lover. "Hotaru one of our son's he's gone" he said softly and filled with fear.
Nemesis jumped up, angry and upset. "No..." She started to sense for her baby.
Rasmus reached out trying to sense for his baby his heart aching praying their son was alright.
He couldn't detect him
Rasmus dropped to his knees feeling like a failure of a father all over again.
He is great in bed your young son. Came the old king's voice
Rasmus slammed his fists into the ground over and over again his fists began to drench with blood as he slugged the floor so hard crumbling it to dust
"Rasmus....?" cried Nemesis worried, her other babies in her arms.
He stopped breathing hard. "The king he has our son he's taunting me laughing at me in my head... He's done something to age our son.... because.... he's using our son as a sex toy..." he said as tears silently streamed down his cheeks.
Nemesis growled. "No...not our baby..."
Rasmus plunged his hands in his hair as he cried kneeling there.
They both heard mocking laughter.
Nemesis hugged him and the other children. Damn you!
Damn you you bastard I will hunt you down and kill you! His eyes shifted blood red with anger.
I am sure Kain would stop you from doing that.
Rasmus snarled in reply he would save his son and kill the bastard who tore his family apart.
He felt as though the old king was no longer speaking to them
Rasmus kneeled there taking deep ragged breaths.
Nemesis knelt with him, their three other babies in her arms. "Rasmus..."
Liam skidded to a stop in the door. "Is something wrong...?I sensed trouble."
Rasmus pulled his family into his arms. "I'm so sorry" he whispered as tears ran down his cheeks. "I'm so sorry" he said softly. He looked up at Liam with those piercing red eyes of his. "One of our sons were taken." he said simply then looked back down at his infants in the arms of his lover.
"What?! Who? When?" He said in worry
Nemesis looked at him. "Him...that bastard...."
He froze looking worried. "But why?"
"I have been one of the only Fae amongst his courts that could face him in strength in the past he's always hated me for the love that many of the people had for me" he said remembering long ago. "He will not stop until I am dead I am scared for what will happen to my family now....." he whispered.
"Don't forget love....I tried to treat him...."
"Yes" he whispered softly hugging his family a little tighter in his arms, he listened to his babies coo softly in their mother's arms. tears ran down his cheeks silently.
"I will help get him back..."
"Thank you, Liam..."
He nodded hoping things would work out
Rasmus seemed lost, his eyes distant as he spoke in soft loving sounds to his little ones
He bit his lip not knowing what more to say
Nemesis looked at Liam. "Where's....Ruaera....?"
"She went after Sol..."
"What's wrong with Sol?"
Rasmus looked up curiously.
"I don't know...he tried to run out."
"Where is my daughter?" Rasmus suddenly asked worriedly not liking the thought of her leaving Zoran's home.
"I will go find her." Liam said hurrying to look for her
Nemesis curled into Rasmus.
Rasmus hugged her close. "I'm sorry that I've brought so much pain in your life" he whispered softly hugging her and his little ones in his arms gently.
"It was the king...not you..." Nemesis whispered.
"If it wasnt for me being in your life though..." he closed his eyes as tears ran down his cheeks.
Yes it it all your fault!
Rasmus threw up his mental sheilds.
Liam held Rueara close as they slept
Rueara snuggled closer.
He stroked her hair
"Liam..." she murmured.
"Hmm?"
"Love...you..."
"and I you my love."
She sighed, snuggling against him.
He held her close
"I...want you safe...."
"I am, I want you safe too."
Rueara smiled up at him.
He gently kissed her
She kissed back. Rueara smiled.
Liam smiled and held her close lovingly. "Tell me about things you like, what makes you happy?"
"Music makes me happy... life...nature.....you?"
"The same. I like to sing too..."
"Really?" she said with a smile.
"I bet you have a lovely voice."
Rueara blushed. "Really?"
"Can you let me hear it?'
Rueara nodded, and started to sing softly.
He smiled listening to her
When she finished, she looked up at him. "So....?"
"Beautiful as expected. You have wonderful talent."
Ruaera blushed, "really....?"
He smiled and nodded gently kissing her. "I would never lie to you."
"I know..." she whispered,
He gently kissed her
She kissed back.
He held her close but his smile faded. "I...we should check on your father and the others...something is wrong..."
"Go to my father..." she said softly, and footsteps ran down the hall. "I'll stop him..." Ruaera fell onto the bed, unconscious, but her spirit self still stood. "Go help my father... please..." She disappeared.
He nodded and hurried. "Be careful."
My world. Valash replied holding Nadya's hand
"Valash...I..." Nadya looked around, she was scared but she was trying to hide it.
"I will keep you safe." Valash said
"Thank you Valash..." Nadya said walking close to him.
He lead her to a circular room with runes etched in the walls. "Step into the circle in the center of the room and chant your wish three times."
Nadya nodded. "I...okay Valash..." Nadya walked into the circle and did as he had told her.
She fell unconscious. When she woke she was older and felt a pull,
Nadya looked at her hands and her body, then around to the pull.
The pull lead to Valash who was blushing as he looked at her
Nadya blushed, looking down. "I..."
"yes?"
"Is....something wrong? Do I look...strange? I...." Nadya asked softly, still not looking up, trying to hide her blush.
He walked over to her and gently tilted her chin up. "You look wonderful...forgive me." He gently kissed her.
Nadya blushed, and then slowly started to kiss back.
He held her close
Nadya looked up at Valash. "Va...lash..." she whispered, blushing.
He smiled down at her looking into her eyes with love. "Yes?"
"What... do we do now....? I...I don't know....what to do....? I've never thought I'd become....like....this...." she whispered.
He held her gently. "I will help you...if you will trust me."
"I...trust you...if I didn't...I won't have come...." Nadya whispered.
He hesitantly kissed her
Nadya kissed back.
"I....love you."
"You...do...? I....love you too...." she whispered back.
He smiled and held her close.
Nadya leaned against him. "What.....now? I...don't know..."
"I need to get you back to your realm."
"Oh...okay..."
"Shall we?"
Nadya nodded. "Alright..."
He gently began to lead her away. "What did you do Valash?" Came a man's voice.
Valash turned to face a handsome man. He dropped to one knee. "My lord...I...love her."
Nadya looked at the man, and then bowed, her eyes still on the man. "Lord..." she said softly. The Roma may have been traveler, entertainers, and even thieves, but they know how to show respect better than any, and Nadya never forgot her Roma teachings. Nadya stood back up, Roma's showed respect but never absolute loyal.
The king looked at her critically and nodded. "Very well. But see to it she is not a hindrance. "
"Yes my lord...I was about to take her home."
"Good. Take care both of you." He turned to leave. Nadya caught scent of him and he seemed to have been with many...she smelled Whisper amongst the scents....and her mother.
Valash sighed and offered his arm once more
Nadya took his arm, silently thinking on what she'd smelled, not wanting to same anything here.
Valash and her vanished and reappeared in the woods. "You ok?"
"The smells on him....one of them.....one of the scents....was my mother's...."
He stiffened. "Smells?"
"Yes...he has my mother's scent on him...." she said softly.
He looked at her in confusion. "I wonder why..."
"I hope she is safe....I...just found her again....."
He hugged her. "I'm sure she is..."
"Valash..." she whispered, hugging him back.
He smiled reassuringly
She looked up at him. "He was upset you brought me there.... but thank you for doing this to me...I...." she blushed.
He hugged her close. "I feel a connection to you."
"Really?" she whispered hugging him back.
He nodded and gently kissed her
Nadya kissed back. "What's....going to happen now?"
"I keep you safe...but should I get you back to your mother?"
"I... I can't...I told you before..." she whispered, looking down.
"Than stay with me."
"What? Where?"
"My home."
"Valash... r....really....?"
He smiled and nodded. "If you wish."
She nodded, and hugged him.
Sol tried to sleep but couldn't he got up and started to leave.
His thought drifted to Matthew.
He looked down. "He has a lover..."He whispered
The 'Matthew' kissed him.
He shook his head violently.
'I love you...'
"Stop it! He is with someone! I don't deserve love!" He cried
'I can love two people....'
He shook his head tears rolling down his cheek
I need you....just as she needs me....
He slammed his fist into the wall.
His heart called for him ot go to Matthew.
He slammed both fists into the wall his hands trickling blood. Tears stained his cheek. "I AM NOT WORTHY!" He screamed
An unconscious voice in his mind that sounded like Matthew spoke up What if I think I'm not worthy of such a great person as yourself...
He fell to his knees crying. "You have someone..."
And what if she had been hurt? What if... I'm not strong enough to protect her....I'm just a weak human.....
Tears rolled down his face. "No....she has you...you won't be in danger if I stay away.."
She's strong...but been hurt...but an evil....exboyfriend....and you're strong....I don't care...I have to be with you....and her...I don't think I can be strong for anyone....I am weak...just a weak human....you and Lamya are both something more....
"Get out of my head....I am nothing..."
You are special...I am the nothing...I've always been the nothing....I was okay with being alone forever until I ran into you and Lamya....
"I will always be alone...."
Sol....I felt it when you were hurt....
"Shut up!" He screamed and hurried out.
Ruaera appeared infront of him. "Sir...? Please stop..."
He panted tears in his eyes. "I...have to go..."
"Please talk to me..."
"I have to go...I can't stay here..."
"You're scared.....I am too....please..."
"I...have no place...why do you want me to stay?"
"You're having dreams...aren't you?"
He looked down and nodded
"I know... I am able to see and visit dreams....right now, this is a dream for me..."
"I don't think you can help..."
"You love someone but you don't want to come between him and her......"
"How, do you know?"
"The same way I am able to see you right now...I am able to walk through dreams...and blend dream and reality...I was blinded...but in my dreams I am able to see....I can go into anyone's dreams...."
He looked down sadly. "I...he loves her."
"And he felt you get hurt, and ran with her on his back to help you even though he has no power...even though he is mortal...."
"He is a male...she is female...they are good together."
"Them being of opposite sex doesn't mean anything...."
"It does...especially to society..."
"I am sure that I wouldn't be here if my fae father had cared about what society thought..." she said softly.
He was silent. "That's different..."
Ruaera looked into his eyes. "Sol...take my hand...." she said softly, sticking out her hand to him.
He hesitated but did so
He saw his body fall to the floor, but he seemed to still be standing howing Ruaera's hand. "I can be as solid or transparent as I wish....come..." she pointed over at a door that he hadn't seen there before, and it just stood there in the middle of the room connected to nothing.
"Thank you. Thank you for everything." Sage whispered. "I am sorry about Carthrian."
"You are welcome...My...room is just over here....it's okay..."
"Thank you for everything."
"Sage...thank you for coming into my life...."
"I...don't know if that's something I have power over but I am glad to have met you."
Seit kissed Sage softly.
She blushed and kissed back
"I...." Seit said. "Are you hungry?"
She nodded
Seit took her to the kitchen and started to cook for her.
She looked around curiously.
The apartment was simple.
She looked at the decor
There were paintings on all of the walls, all hand-painted. The furniture was nice and simple. "I made some salad....I wasn't sure what you'd like...."
"Thank you," She whispered examining the paintings
"Many of the manys that I sell in my shop where painted over the years that I have been away from the courts...."
"Oh, they are very nice,"
"Thank you Sage...."
She blushed and nodded
Seit kissed her cheek.
She blushed and kissed him hesitantly. He felt a powerful signature enter the shop
Seit slowly pulled back. "Someone's in the shop..." he said softly.
She bit her lip in fear.
Seit looked at Sage. "We'll stay up here...." he said softly, pulling her close.
She snuggled against him trembling slightly.
Seit hoped that no harm would come to her, as he held her.
She slowly settled. "Do you think they will hurt us?"
"I don't think so...if they were, they would have come up here and done so..." he said softly.
:What do you think they want?"
"I don't know..."
She looked worried
Sage looked down at her, then just scooped her up, going a little way down the entry hall to another to, bumping it open. "This is my room..." he said as he carried her into the room, and to a far corner before setting her feet back down on the floor.
She blushed and slowly nodded.
The sound of people coming up the stairs could be heard
"Stay right here....okay?" Seit said softly.
She nodded and jumped as someone knocked on the door
Seit just kissed her forehead. "I'll be right back...." Siet quietly left his room, closing the door behind him. He headed for the door. He opened the door, "I'm sorry...we're closed...and no one was suppose to be up here...."
Dagda smiled. "I am sorry for the disturbance but she wanted to meet the artist. And I have some things I must discuss with you regarding your guest."
Seit just stared at him. "My guest? I don't know what you are speaking of....though thank you for your comment on my work, miss..."
"Your guest is being hunted. Make sure your guest isn't captured once more.."
"Who are you? I..."
"My name is Dagda."
"Dagda? The Dagda...?"
"The one and only."
"I...I...my guest was injured and I helped her..."
He nodded. "She is still being hunted."
Seit nodded. He went to go get Sage. "Sage..." he said softly.
She looked up from examining a painting. "Is it safe?"
"Dagda..." he said simply.
She looked confused
Seit held out a hand to Sage.
She took it with a blush
Seit lead her back out to Dadga and the young girl with him. He kept Sage close to him.
Sage hid behind him
Tsura looked worriedly at Dadga.
Seit held her close.
Hope didn't notice he had fallowed. She closed the door to her room and lay on the bed crying silently
A hand laid gently on her shoulder. "Hope... please look at me..."
She jumped and looked up her face was red from crying. "I...am...pregnant." She whispered
Dyimund pulled her into a hug. "I'm not leaving now or ever..."
"You...want to stay with me? Even though I am pregnant."
"Yes...." he said softly, and gently kissed her.
She blushed kissing back
Dyimund pulled back slowly. "Forgive me if...you didn't want me to...."
"I...love you too...I felt like a whore when you offered money....I..."she began to cry
He held her closer. "I wasn't wanting that...I wanted to help you...."
She closed her eyes breathing in his scent. She knew he spoke the truth, knew she loved him, but was still fearful. "I...know....but how am I going to afford taking care of Leslie, Lial...and a baby?"
"I'm not going to let you do this alone....I have the means to help you...always...."
"I...will be a burden..."
"You can never be a burden to me....never...."
"Really?"
"Truly....I want to take care of you... of all of you..."
"But why?"
"I feel it in my soul..."
"Really?"
"Yes...yes Hope, really..."
She hesitantly kissed him. "Me too."
He smiled down at her. "I love you..."
"I...love you too."
He smiled, then he looked down. "I...never wanted to make you feel like you were...."
"I...I know."
"Really?" he asked unsure.
"You...were always kind to me."
He held her close, stroking her hair. "I love you...always..."
She snuggled into him. "I love you too...Oh! Leslie's medication." She said bolting up. "I need to get him his medication..."
"I'll stay here..."
She nodded and hurried to get the medication
She saw Leslie alone on the couch. "Lial...went..." cough... "...to find my medicine...."
"Ok I will help him." She said hurrying to the kitchen
Lial hugged Leslie. "She will be alright."
"Really?"
He nodded holding him close.
Leslie hugged him. "Thank you so much..."
"Of course. I am here for you."
He smiled, and kissed him.
He blushed kissing back
Leslie blushed. "I..."
"yes?"
"Love... you..."
He held him close.
"I do love you...."
"I love you too."
"I...want everyone happy...and okay...."
"Okay?"
Leslie nodded. "Do you think he means what he says...?"
"I hope so..."
"I do too..."
He held him close
Leslie snuggled against him, then coughed.
He gently covered him with a blanket holding him close.
"Thank....you...."
"Of course."
Leslie coughed again.
"Are you ok?"
"This.....happens...."
"Anything I can do?"
"MY medicine...." he whispered.
"Where is it?"
"The kitchen..." cough... "in a drawer..."
He hurried to get it.
He got to the kitchen.
He hurried and got the medicine.
Hope stopped in the door. "Oh...here...let me." She said taking it and instructing him to get water.
They brought the medicine and water to him
Leslie coughed. "Sis..."
She gently hugged him. "Yes?"
Leslie took his medication. "Thank you....sis...."
"Of course. He helped though." She said indicating Lial.
Leslie smiled at Lial. "Thank you, Lial..."
He nodded and hugged him
Leslie hugged back. "Thank you...."
"Of course."
Leslie looked at Hope. "How...are you doing sis...?"
"I...am pregnant.."
Leslie looked at her with wide eyes. "Wha...you are?"
She looked down and nodded. "Yes..."
Leslie looked at Lial, then back at Hope. "He's the father...isn't he?"
She blushed and slowly nodded. "Y...yes..."
Leslie nodded. "You're...not leaving me...right?"
Dyimund stepped out into the living room with all of them. "I wouldn't think of taking her from you....if I was going to take her anywhere...I'd be having you coming along side her....as well as your friend if you wanted...."
Hope hugged Leslie. "Leslie I would never leave you! Family sticks together!"
Leslie hugged Hope back. "I'm just.....checking...." he said softly.
She held him close
Dyimund looked ot Lial, and held up an engagement ring so as to show the boy that he wasn't going to hurt his friend's mother's feeling.
He nodded.
Dyimund hid the ring again. "Hope....?"
She turned to look. "Yes?"
Dyimund knelt infront of her. "Will you marry me?" he asked softly, pulling back out the ring.
Leslie watched shocked.
"I love you too Aeliat." Raya replied
Aeliat blushed more.
She blushed and smiled.
"Where to...?"
"Back to the others?"
Aeliat nodded. "Alright...."
She smiled walking with him
Aeliat smiled slightly. "I...hmmm....thank you for everything, Raya...."
"and thank you for giving me a chance."
"I should be saying that...."
She smiled and kissed him
He blushed, kissing back.
"Love you."
"I...love you too Raya..."
she smiled with a blush.
Aeliat continued to head with Raya back to the others.
They got there and noticed the door was kicked in, Raya stopped her eyes going wide, :"No...."
Aeliat looked around cautiously.
Most of the band lay there unconscious but Ryu was gone
"Ryu's not here...."
"What if he is hurt?"
"I don't like this...we need...help...."
"Where can we get it?" She asked checking on the others. "Good they are just unconcious..."
"I don't know...this is not something you'd want the cops to see..." Aeliat said softly.
"No...and they couldn't help..."
Aeliat looked around in thought. "I don't know...I really wish I did...."
She hugged him tears staining her face.
Aeliat stroked her hair. ((I don't know how we are going to get him to WHisper, his twin, and everything.....))((just wait))
"I....he said there is a powerful woman who runs a shop...she might be able to help."
He nodded. "We should go then...get help..."
She nodded. "You think they will be alright while we are gone?"
"If not then someone will burn..." Aeliat said softly, looking down at his hands that had started to smoke like the start of a fire.
She began to put their friends into beds.
Aeliat helped her.
They were soon finished
"So where are we suppose to go...?" Aeliat asked.
"Follow me..." She said heading toward Tala's
Aeliat followed.
She knocked on the door hoping someone would answer
"Not necessarily." Dagda replied
"Oh...."
"There are other things that may have caused them to leave."
"Really? but....."
"But what?"
"I just don't know..."
He hugged her
Tsura hugged back. "thank you...."
"Of course."
"Where do you want to go now.....?"
"That is up to you."
"I'd go where you go..."
He smiled kindly. "What else do you like?"
"Gems....paintings..."
He smiled and lead her to Seit's shop.
When they got there, Tsura looked in from the outside. "Beautiful...but they have their closed sign out...."
He sighed, "We can go in and just look if you wish?"
"Really? We can do that?"
He nodded
Tsura looked around the shop, at all of the paintings. "These as so beautiful..."
"I agree. He has a talent."
Tsura smiled up at Dagda. "Very talented indeed...."
"He is fae."
"Fae?"
"Yes. They exist."
"Oh wow...I should have known or something...." she said softly.
"Why is that?"
"Because I'm a werewolf..and you're a god..."
He smiled and gently kissed her,
Tsura kissed back. "Dagda... he does have a talent..."
"He does, but it has brought him pain too...want to meet him?"
"Okay...if it's okay..." He took her hand gently and headed upstairs ((Go up to where Seit is))
She snuggled into him.
Gently he stroked her soft hair. "How is your brother? I'm sorry for scaring him Tainn."
"I...I think he'll be okay..."
"I hope so sweet heart" he said lovingly stroking her hair.
"Me too....me too...." Tainn said.
"Now you've had a long day you should get some rest" he said lovingly.
Tainn nodded, and snuggled against him.
Zoran just laid there stroking her hair holding her close.
"I love you Z...."
"I love you to Tainn" he said just holding that moment with her.
"Is....life always this crazy?"
"No just lately its turned out that way" Zoran sighed laying there putting his arm over his eyes.
Zoran felt Tainn move and straddle his chest.
Zoran smirked and moved his arm looking up above him seeing Tainn there. "What are you up to?" he asked playfully.
Tainn leaned down and kissed him.
Zoran sighed kissing her back gently loving the taste of her lips.
"That's what I'm up to..." she seemed to purred.
Zoran blushed. "Oh my" he said surprised to see such a vixen above him.
Tainn laid her head down on his chest.
Zoran gently stroked her hair as they laid there together.
"Did you like me as a vixen or...just me....?" she whispered.
"I like you for whatever you wish to be, I like you as you my darling if you wish to be a vixen then I love you as a vixen if you wish to be a vixen I love you being shy if you wish to be shy" he said lovingly.
"I love...you, Z...."
"And I love you Tainn" he smiled up at her.
She snuggled against him.
"Sleep now, you've had a long day" he said sweetly stroking her hair.
"You need to sleep too..."
"I slept while you were with your brother I'm fine."
"I'm worried about him...."
"I'm here for you no matter what" he said lovingly.
She nodded. "Thank you Z..."
"Your always welcome sweetheart, now lets get you to sleep" he said lovingly moving them so they were laying together and pulled the blanket over them.
Tainn snuggled into his chest happily.
"Sleep well darling" he said lovingly.
"Thank you....Z....." she whispered.
He laid there and smiled as she drifted off to sleep in his arms.
Tainn smiled in her sleep.
Zoran laid there for hours just holding her stroking her hair gently thinking about life, his brother the bastard old king. He had been around a long time and all of this suddenly comes up. He was so tired...
Matthew held her, falling asleep too.
Lamya that night dreamed of being so cold, unable to be warmed by the most gentle curess. It scared her, the cold she felt it to her core and it felt so real.
Matthew pulled her closer as he dreamed of her and Sol.
Lamya awoke and laid there snuggled against Matthew letting him sleep silently.
She had a vision of Sol killing him
Lamya stiffened nervously.
It got more graphic and worse
She gasped and shook her head to free herself from the vision her body in tears.
She woke
"Lamya...Sol....my loves..." Matthew mumbled in his sleep.
Lamya pulled away from him and gave him one of the pillows to hug, she moved over and laid down away from Matthew not wishing to hug him. Just lost in her own thoughts.
She felt the trong arms wrap around her. "I am not leaving you...I had made a promise...." came Matthew's voice as a whisper into her ear.
Lamya just laid there quietly not saying anything in return.
"Lamya...I love you so much...." he whispered.
"I love you to Matthew" she said softly laying there.
Matthew kissed her.
Lamya sighed softly kissing him back as they laid there with one another.
Matthew snuggled into her neck.
Lamya snuggled laying there and soon drifted off to sleep.
Matthew held her, thoughts of Sol in his mind.
Lamya seemed to pull away from him as the thoughts of Sol were in his mind as if she some how knew.
Matthew looked down at her, and pulled her as close as he could. You need me...I'll give you my strenght.... he thought to himself.
She whimperd softly in her sleep as she laid there.
Matthew kissed her neck.
Lamya calmed a little bit.
"I will protect you..." he whispered into her neck against her skin.
Lamya laid there silently unmoving.
He kissed behind her ear.
Lamya gave a little sigh in her sleep.
Matthew just held her, close, thinking.
"I don't know." Vanyen replied sadly
Isabel nodded. "I wish I could help more...."
"Lend him your support and protection."
"I will...William needs the same..."
"I know."
Isabel looked at Vanyen. "Are you going to stay?" she asked softly.
"If you want me to."
"I...do..." she said blushing.
He smiled. "I am glad."
She smiled blushing. "William..." she called out.
He came hurrying in and stopped. "Who? Did he hurt you?"
"This....is Vanyen....he hasn't done anything wrong..."
He nodded. "Ok."
"William...what do you wish to do?" Isabel asked softly.
"I don't know..."
Isabel looked at Vanyen and William, and sighed. "Okay...so, what can be done...?" she asked aloud to herself.
"About?"
"I don't know...I've never been with others in so long...I don't know what we should do...." Isabel said softly.
"I... don't either."
Isabel looked outside, and sighed. "Anyone hungry....?"
"Yea. I am." William said.
"Sure. is there a place you would like to eat?" Vanyen said
"I...I was going to cook...us...something..." she said softly, blushing, as she looked over at Vanyen.
"May I help?"
Isabel nodded. "Yes...you can..."
"What do you want to make?"
"I was thinking about something with alot of greens and bread and cheese..."
"Sure. How about....shrimp salad?"
Isabel nodded, smiling. "That sounds very good.
He smiled. "I will cook the shrimp."
"I'll get the salad made up...William would you like to help?"
"Yes please."
Isabel headed into the kitchen with the two, smiling slightly.
They both set to work
Isabel smiled, happy.
Soon the smell of shrimp filled the kitchen
"Mmmmm that smells so good..." said Isabel softly.
"I agree."
Isabel had just finished a nice big bowl of salad, and saw that William was finishing up the table. She started to fill up three glasses of water.
Vanyen put the shrimp on the table
"It looks delicious, Vanyen...."
"I hope you like it."
Isabel took a quick bite of the shrimp. "Hmmm...delicious, Vanyen..."
"Thank you." He said with a smile.'
"It is great." William said.
Isabel was happy, and ate the meal silently. She wasn't really used to being with so many people yet, after her centuries of being alone, but she was still happy.
Vanyen gently took one of her hands and held it in silence
Isabel silently allowed him to take it. "William...have you remembered anything else..?" she asked softly.
He shook his head. "No..."
"All will be as it should, William..." she said softly.
"I hope so."
"Family stands by family..." she then said.
He smiled. "Thank you."
Isabel nodded, smiling at him and then at Vanyen
"So out of curiosity, why compare yourself to a tiger?" Enna asked.
"You are here investigating strange things here... like I had said, I'm not from here... I am from China...and...." he eyes shifted to that of a cat's, bright green cat eyes. "I am one of many 'strange' things in this world...."
"Oh my!" Enna gasped in surprise, then, "Why tell me this anyway?"
"Because I feel something for you and don't want to lie to you...." Khan said.
"Really?" Enna played with the necklace around her throat unconsciously, "I've never had anybody trust me like that before, except..." She sat on the edge of her bed, frowning as her thoughts went back to her missing sister.
Khan came closer, and placed a hand on Enna's shoulder. "You are the one alive that knows that I have this form....I have stayed mostly in my other form....Enna...yes I trust you, as I hope you can trust me...."
Don't trust him, he is a monster
Enna frowned uncertain as those silent words rang in her ears, "I... think I can. Things are strange, certainly, but I think you at least I can trust right now."
Khan nodded. "I feel that I know I can trust you....I don't want to lie to you ever...."
"I think I'm going to seek out breakfast before setting to work this morning, care to join me?" Enna questioned, "Or, if you'd rather, the shower's open, you're more than welcome to it and I'll bring something back to the room?"
"I'll join you for breakfast...." Khan said lightly.
"Well, may as well locate a restaurant then." Enna replied with a smile.
Khan nodded. "There is one down the street..."
Off on the outside of town in an old manor that hadn't been lived in for a long time renovations were being done to it but not the kinds you would think. The windows were being boarded up as furniture was being moved in and the taste of the house changed. Inside in the huge ballroom that graced it. a man sat alone on his throne watching his people work. He had long black hair and rich red eyes. A master Vampire of his own right he was one of the kings of the night. Gently he sipped from a glass the held deep red liquid that was blood. Soon my pet you will be mineMicheal thought to himself sitting there thinking about his Lamya.
He heard the sound of glass breaking
"What the hell now?" he growled putting his glass down and went to see what the noise was.
One of the windows was broken and he noticed blood on the floor in the center of the blood was a young man with black hair. He appeared to be in his late teens early twenties. He smelled like a vampire.,
Micheal sniffed the air dawn was on the way. "Mange, Malice the window quickly Massacre help me with the boy" he said to his three closest Vampires.
They began to work quickly. "Sir...I have seen this boy before. He is the lead guitarist in a band..."
"You know me I don't really listen to the new age stuff that often" he said with a shrug. "Get him to one of the rooms and put a gaurd on the door through out the day." he then yawned. "I must be heading to my crypt" he said watching as two of his vampires picked up the man.
They walked away with him. He noticed a peace of paper laying near where the young man had been
Out of bored curiosity he picked it up before heading off towards his crypt in the underground cellars
Scrawled in blood were the words: "He is your problem now."
"What the hell?" he asked holding the paper he looked in the direction of the man then back at the paper. Dawn was coming soon and he needed to get to his coffin but he would find out what this was about. He turned and headed off for the catacombs downstairs
"My lord?" One of his servants asked
"I'm alright thank you I'm just ready for bed is all I feel dawn creeping up on me. Make sure to keep an eye on the kid I don't want him doing anything out of the ordinary" he said as he headed down the stairs
"That's just it my lord...his blood..the smell of it is intoxicating. I had to prevent some of the others from feeding on him. He is an ancient too my lord."
"What?" he asked in shock hearing this. "I know we still have the sister coffin to mine. put him in that one and place chains around it in my chambers, and I want the wolf gaurds on my door today when the night comes again then I will speak to him personally but let everyone know that if they come near him I will drain them myself and let their ashes scatter to the winds" he growled out.
He nodded and hurried off to do as told.
Micheal grabbed one of the blood bags from the big freezer in the kitchen and drank it down. When he was done he chucked the empty bag out and headed downstairs to the basement. he nodded to his werewolf gaurds standing at his door as he walked in. There He saw the large coffin next to his chained up. "What the hell are you kid?" he whispered as he then climbed into his own coffin and pulled the lid closed to get some rest for the day.
The day seemed to pass swiftly
When night fell again Micheal awoke in his coffin feeling truely refreshed. He opened his coffin and climbed out. he looked over seeing the other coffin still sealed. Walking over to it he undid the locks then let the chains fall to the ground. then opened the lid to see his new 'guest'.
The young man still slept. There was something deadly and powerful about him.
Micheal closed the lid gently then went to his special fridge in his coffin room grabbing a bag of blood. he closed the lid on his own coffin then hopped up sitting on it. Gently he bit off part of the bag and began to drink as he waited.
He heard a soft moan from the other coffin
Finishing his own bag he chucked it in the trashcan in the room, grabbing a fresh bag of blood he went over to the other coffin opening it being ready for anything.
Ryu moaned opening his eyes. He stiffened looking ready to fight if need be. "Who....are you?!" He winced at the effort rubbing the back of his head.
"The man who's window you smashed into last night." He handed Ryu the bag of blood. "Micheal Alexander Bloodrose, fellow creature of darkness" he smiled and let his fangs drop. When he did Ryu saw that his fangs were like a humans version of a saber tooth tiger at full length while his eyes glowed with power. Micheal pulled the fangs back up to their idle length and closed his mouth. "And who might I ask are you?" he asked standing there looking down at the other man.
He drank the blood thankfully. "Ryu....my last name is unimportant...Sorry about your window...I don't recall last night,"
"Its alright, by now the window has been repaired by my werewolves so no need to worries" he said stepping away from the coffin and walked over lounging in one of the leather chairs in the huge room which was deliciously designed in rich masculine feel.
He slowly went over to another chair and sat down. "Thank you for caring for me rather than draining me...."
"I know what its like to be no where without any help, but I do have to say my vampires were tempted to drain you" he said crossing his legs as he sat there. "Dusk is still on the horizon so your going to need to stay here a little bit longer before you can head out" he said laying his head back closing his eyes.
"Why is that? I can go out into the sun."
Micheal went wide eyed. "you what?" he asked thinking he had heard wrong.
"I can go out in the sun..." He said slowly. He recalled a prophecy about a vampire that could go into the sun, but he couldn't remember the details.
"Well then by all means you are free to go" he said simply, he would put a tracking shadow on the boy this was deffinantly someone who would be useful to him in the future.
He stood and stumbled a little. "Thank you for your help..."
"Hang on" Micheal stood and sat him back down. "Your still not in any shape to go anywhere" he said looking down at the young man as he sat there. "So just rest for awhile and I have something that will help" he went to his fridge and pulled out another bag of blood this one a bag of blood from his most powerful of his werewolves. he walked over and handed the bag to him. "This is from one of my werewolves he is one of the strongest and oldest I know, drinking this should help you get back to your full strength."
He took it and looked down at it. "Thank you..."
"Your welcome, from one child of the night to another" he said slumping down in his chair once more."
"Am I really?" He whispered.
"You are a guest in my home you are welcome" he said having easily heard the boy.
Ryu drank the packet distaste on his face.
"Not a fan of Supe blood?" he asked curiously.
"It's not that...there are impurities in this blood...can't you taste them?" He inquired
"No, I can't their are impurities in the blood?" he asked curious on what the man was tasting, he had been drinking from Volkari for years.
He looked down and nodded. "Aye...I have acute taste, there is impurities in this blood, it may be from the source or and outside source...It's hard to tell." He said softly. It seemed he was hiding something.
"And what are said impurities that you seem to be hiding from me?" he asked curiously
He stiffened. "What?"
"I know when someone is hiding something from me, so tell me what is wrong with my wolf?" he asked curiously.
He looked down sighing in relief as though relieved he was asking about that and not something else. "I already told you...there are contaminates...someone slipped something into the blood. Too much of this contaminated blood, and it can kill."
Micheal grew worried hearing this. "I've been drinking his blood for years"
"This blood was tainted recently...do you have someone wishing you ill?"
"Not that I know of as of late" he said seriously his body was on edge whoever this was that was tainting his wolves was going to die.
He frowned looking thoughtful as he sniffed the packet. "It's another werewolf..."
Micheal knew many werewolves feared him because he could bend them to his control. Wolves were his animal to call and the werewolves that did not come to like him on their own feared what he could do with his ancient power. "Thank you for discovering this for me" he said knowing he was now going to have to go and hunt for his food now.
He nodded. "You won't kill your food will you?" He asked as though hearing the thought
"Depends really I don't normally but their is always those few cases" he said looking at his nails.
He looked angry. "Try not to..."
"OOooh scary look on your face big man, I don't kill my food that often anymore when I do go out and hunt the only time in the past recently I kill someone when I hunt is if it some shit head scum bag like a theif or a rapist" he said sitting there.
Kain lay next to the old king asleep. The old king smiled down at him. Perfect. And to think how well he will make a weapon against his family. He smiled as he sat up and dressed.
"Well, may as well locate a restaurant then." Enna replied with a smile.
Khan nodded. "There is one down the street..."
"Alright, well, soon as you're ready then."
Khan shook out his hair, and smiled gently at her. "I'm ready if you are...."
"Let's go then." Enna replied, grabbing the key and opening the door.
Khan headed out, waiting for her to follow.
Enna locked the door behind her, "Lead the way."
Khan lead her down the road to a diner. He opened the door for her.
Enna smiled and slipped inside, glancing around briefly.
She didn't see anything strange. Khan followed behind her, headed for a table that gave a view of the restaurant. He pulled out a chair for her. "Enna...."
"This place seems pretty neat. Have you eaten here before?" Enna asked with a smile as she sat.
Khan pushed her chair in, and then sat down. "No....I'm sorry...I haven't....in does look good doesn't it....."
A waitress came up. "Can I get you two something to drink?"
"Tea please..." he said.
"I'll have the same." Enna replied, glancing briefly at the woman, "So... what's good to eat here?" She asked of the waitress.
"We have scrambled eggs with cheese, bacon, sausage, and hashbrowns...?"
A man walked over with an envelope. "Excuse me...sorry for the intrusion but...is your name Khan?"
Khan looked confused. "Yes?"
He handed him the envelop and left
Khan looked down at the envelop, not sure about opening it.
there were no marks on it
"Sounds good, I'll have that." Enna replied, her gaze on Khan, "You should probably open that, could be important."
"It's just....there way only on that knew me as I am now as Khan....khan is the name I am call when I am in my other form....and....Enna....Khan is a name I choose to call myself because I didn't have a name before....because of how I had been raise...." khan had a look that read that something terrible had happened during his childhood.
"I'm sorry," Enna frowned, her words genuine, "Is it... something to worry about that somebody who knows who you are has left a letter?"
"It could be... the only other person that I know, beside you, that knows me like this had been murdered on the day of his wedding, and I have been acting as a guardian to the one he loved...out of respect and because he had helped me by taking me from my old life...."
