Alexander And Kakurine

The darkness of the cobblestone streets in the busy town were lined with a thin film of mist, the silent, only a single set of footsteps could he heard. The darkened figure walked with a seeming speed, anxiously trying to reach his destination.. He was hungry. Desperately so, he could feel his need for blood burning in his veins, making him feel light-headed. Soon, he thought, soon.
It had been much to long since he had fed, but now with a legitimate reason to be outside in this cold, the sound of clinking gold coins he had attained from his last unfortunate victim, he would no longer have knights pounding on his door, accusing him of killing innocent women in the streets… which he of course had. A sigh passed his pale lips as he turned round the corner, coming off the streets into a darkened alleyway, unknown to most, but engraved in his memory, burned into him as much as his hunger.. He had been here to many times to mention. Opening the wooden, termite eaten door gently, he was greeted by dim lights and a dry dirt floor… the scent reminded him of a butcher shop.. For this basically was one, in a more ironic sense.

Lining the floors and walls were mortals, many of them. Some already dead, only hanging from their bonds on the walls like rag dolls, drained of their life for a price, this was his new favourite place to be. The slave market, an open blood fest for the more powerful vampires.
\"Alexander! Welcome!\" A voice met his ears; he turned to meet a pair of black eyes, belonging to an old friend. His mouth went into a boyish grin, revealing his pointed canines. \"Ah, hello old friend.. Anything new today?\" He asked curiously, removing the heavy black cloak from around him, revealing his attire and features to the sweltering room, he tried not to cringe at the scent of death and decay around them, these were the cheaper slaves. Alexander was rather finely dressed, humble but his clothing fit his body as if they were made for him. A dark grey tunic and black pants, his boots a little worse for wear, but nothing to horrible. He was tall, towering over his small blond friend, about 6 and a half feet tall, his longish ebony hair tied back in a low tail, small strands and fringes coming off around his pale cheeks and forehead, lingering in his granite blue eyes. His broad shoulders and strong arms made him seem even larger; he was rather handsome by mortal standards. His friend shook his head lightly. Breathing out. \"no, not much, look around if you desire\" He nodded, giving his friend a pat on the back, walking slowly up the rows of cages and chains, inspecting each one.

Inside one of the slave cages, sat a young girl, a chain around her neck to keep her still. When she was brought into this slave market, she had to be chained down, for she tried everything she could to try and escape. A somewhat hopeless look was in her eyes, which were glowing dimly in the shadows of the cage--crimson in hue. Her tunic was almost considered to be rags, torn and faded in many places, though it was still able to be told that it was lavender in hue, at one point. Scars were abundant on her arms, though whether they had come from this market, or from past experiances, it was unknown.

She wore a pair of old, brown boots, that were close to the same condition of her tunic. Muddy, torn; the boots were not fit for much travel, though they had suited her well when she was out on her own. She used to be a random traveler, who would wander aimlessly from town to town, for no apparent reason. The girl was a rather silent type, an almost timid nature around her. Her hair was short, dangling just above her shoulder, silver in hue, even though her age was rather young. Though, the most noticable appearance apon her frame, was a pair of large, silver feathered wings, that were apon her back. The feathers were shiney enough to be mistaken for pure silver, yet soft, like silk. However, her glamorous wings were currently ruffled, cramped within the cage she was in.

Alexander had only been walking for a short time when he came upon the liquid silver color that stuck out of the cage slightly. Had he gotten lucky tonight? Sometimes the masters of kidnapping slaves came upon something rare, and this little demon girl, or whatever she was, seemed to arouse his intrest more than anything that had caught his eyes that night. He crouched down slightly, caught a little offgaurd by her bloodletting colored eyes, making him stare into them for a few moments, drawn in... he shook his head slightly, before standing, and calling her current owner forth. He smiled as best he could, the man was.. rather disgusting, he almost pitied the girl for having to live a day with the overweight, greasy slob, an excuse for a Vampire and a man.
\"Excuse me Good Sir.. might you tell me what im looking at?\" He asked polietly, the man only shrugged, making Alexander frown and roll his eyes a little. \"Well, if you cant tell me what she is.. might I sample her? I refuse to buy something that might taste rancid.\" He said cooly, the man simply grunted, nodding his head and walking to the cage she was held in, unlocking the door and then roughly undoing the bonds that held her to the cage, leaving on the chain around her neck, using it to drag her outside. \"Get up ye damned creature\" He said roughly, pulling her to her feet by the arm, Alexander growled a little. \"Do not damage my merchandise sir\" He spoke in a teasy voice, looking down to the small girl curiously. \"Give me your wrist\" he demanded, holding out his large hand to her.

The girl had a solem look on her face, and flinched when he pulled on her chain, almost choaking her slightly. Her wing\'s feathers smoothed down to it\'s more noble appearance, shining a bit. A small sigh escaping her lips, she held out her wrist slowly, though did not raise her eyes to them. When she was brought for the first time, she forced herself into silence, refusing to speak to anyone, almost. Her first time of being thrown in a cage, and punished herself in her mind for being so careless outside. She should have known that anyone would notice her, with her large wings being hard to conceal. Her wrist stayed out, as she waited silently.

he smiled lightly, glad that she had complied so readily, it would be useful when he got around to making her do other things he desired from her... he examined her body slightly, she seemed to be to his satisfaction for the most part, other than the fact that she needed other clothing and a good washing. he paused, taking her warm and dainty forearm into his grasps, his other hand tracing over her exposed flesh till he found a proper point, about an inch from the crook of her elbow, he slit the flesh, careful not to open any viens. The blood immidiately spurted onto her skin, he watched it silently, before hunger took him over, lowering his lips slowly to the wound, sucking the red esctacy into his mouth.
Her blood had the effect of Liquid cocaine on him, he could hear himself let out a small grunt as it leaked down his throat, barely even realizing it was him, closing his eyes for a moment before returning to reality, he pulled back, breathing a bit heavily, amazed at the flavor, like liquid fire as it filled his body, he rose an eyebrow, even more interested in this strange creature now. \"How much\" Was all he asked, his chest heaving slightly as he covered the wound with his thumb to stop any other bleeding, gazing at her visage.
\"four hundred\" He said softly, knowing Alexander would not leave without her. \"Four Hundred?\" He repeated, shocked but the price. \"Please, i wouldnt pay that for four like her! Shes tiny, and obviously rather weak, the most ill give is 300\" After some rather heated haggling, Alexander released her arm, which was clotting, giving the man what he owed.

She had closed her eyes when he drank her blood, not really wanting to watch. She rubbed her arm slightly, looking a bit relieved at her releasing. She didn\'t seem too bothered with her being cut; she was obviously used to it. Her eyes reopened at last, looking at the two of them. By the look on her face, she was pleased of being out of the cage, and able to leave. However, her mind imediately began to think about her fate once she would go with Alexander. She was able to guess partially his intentions for her, but she tried her best to keep a blank face, hiding her emotions for the moment. At the sound of the price she was set at, she was slightly surprised. But she had been there for a while, and knew of the man\'s greed.

Alexander\'s eyes seemed to stay warm, he was usually kind, gentlemanly, but when hunger hit him.. he could be crazy and cruel, powerhugry and bloodlusting... he was teetering between the two for the moment, desperate to be home and out of this stench. After handing over the money, he looked to his new possesion, examining once again, wondering if she was really worth the price.. but remembering the flavor and feeling he got from her liquid, he knew that if he had left without her he would regret it. He seemed somewhat more energetic now, a bit of color returning to his visage and smiling a bit more, he touched the chain around her neck. \"Now.. Do you think I can remove this little one? Or are you going to run?\" He asked her softly, removing the chain from over her head anyway, getting a view of her swanlike neck, hunger panging him a little once again. He leant foreward, whispering to her. \"If you do run... Ill make sure you regret it\" He said a bit coldly, leaving his voice ringing in her ears as he pushed her slightly in the direction of the door.

She almost stumbled a bit, but regained composure, straightening up. It had been a while since she stretched her legs out, and it was quite a relief to her. As she trudged forward, she told him, in a deafly soft voice, \"I won\'t run...You own me now...\" Apparently this slave seemed to be accepting what she was now. Infact, even when she was free, she didn\'t see herself technically as \'free\', anyway. She used to be constantly chased; after all, a winged girl was sure to be worth quite a lot of money. She walked a bit slowly towards the door, starting to get used to stretching her legs, and walking again. Her wings flexed slightly, the tense feeling of them gone, now relaxed.

He smiled once again, glad to see how compliant she was, he wouldnt have to worry about a thing it seemed... he grinned wickedly as he walked behind her, watching her slightly feminine sway, he was getting more and more hungry, but also for other things... he wouldnt frighten her right away, deciding to wait for her to become a little warmer. He reached his arm above her, opening the door for her as the two stepped out into the chill of the night, he shivred a little, not expecting it to be so cold... but he realized his little slave was probably freezing. Sighing inwardly, he placed the large cloak over her shoulders, she was almost swamped in it. \"Dont want you getting ill, Sickly mortals taste disgusting\" He said simply, almost glad he couldnt watch her body move infront of him, as tantalizing as it was.

\"Thank you...\" She said, in that same, soft voice. Inside the cloak, her wings wrapped around her, adding extra warmth for her skinny frame. She looked greatful for him being kind to her, despite what she knew he would do to her soon. However, the only thing she truely knew about, was that he was hungry, and his intention of going in and buying a slave, was to feed off of. She managed to keep herself from shivering, not wanting to let him notice her emotions, or physical condition. The girl never did want to reveal too much about herself, to anyone; not even her previous owner knew anything about her.

They were only walking for a short while before he told her to turn a corner, taking them to a path, leading to an open feild. He guided her along this path for a while, it went deeper into the woods and farther from the lights of the town... just thr way he liked it. eventually the path turned from dirt to cobblestone again, his father had something for elegance, but was slain bythe current kings kinghts, just as they had planned to do to him.. he was quicker than them though, and managed to avoid getting killed. He stopped infront of the massive black doors, the house seemed to be more like a stone mansion, or miniature castle, but all in all it was rather elegant. Opening the door, he was immidiately greeted with the scent of cinnamon and the crackling fire in the living room, his maid greeted him hapily. \"Good evening Lord Alexander.. did you have a good visit with Sir Herald?\" She enquired softly, the girls firery red hair was up in a bun, she wore a simple black dress and grey apron, she rose an eyebrow to the girl behind him, smiling softly, revealing her own pointed fangs. \"And what might this be? A guest?\" She asked curiously, Alexander shook his head. \"More of a perminent... aquisition\" He said, she nodded simply, grinning a bit wider, walking off to the kitchen. He took the cloak off of Her small body and slapped in on a hook lazily. \"Anna, would you prepare a bath for our... guest?\" He asked softly, leading her to the living room to warm up, which was decorated simply with large red sofas and black cherry colored furniture, the fire blazing in the massive fireplace.

The small girl looked around a bit, taking in the sights of the large home. It amazed her a bit, having never seen anything to vast and elegant. Her eyes wandered around a bit, in a sort of awed sense. She looked at the fireplace, and went closer to it a bit, heating herself up. Her wings uncurled from around her, and she fell silent for the moment. She looked at Alaxander slightly, a bit uneasy, since she knew her fate was sealed now. Rubbing her forearms slightly, to keep heat in them, she began to think about what would happen to her. The girl knew she was practically dinner for him, but when she heared pernament, it surprised her. Her mind began to wonder about what else he may have in store for her.

He grinned a little, taking the silent moment to intrude on her thoughts, That Vampiric quality was always something he enjoyed. Slowly walking next to her, he stood behind her, noticing she only came up to about his collarbone, even a little lower. His large grip rose to her forearms she had been rubbing, his hands taking thier place, giving her some of his slight heat. He paused for a moment before leaning down to her ear, hot breath cascading over her flesh as he spoke. \"You realize, I have not even heard out utter more than a few words.. what might your name be... And do you even know what you are?\" He asked curiously, letting his hands release her arms slowly, sinking down to rest gently on her slim hips, he grinned devilishly behind her.

\"I\'m Kakurine...\" She said, as her eyes looked down at his hands, watching them a bit. She didn\'t even shiver at his touch, seeming to be rather calm all the time, and solem. \"I\'m from an old race...We\'re called \'Winglies\'...But I\'m only half...\" Her voice was still in the same soft tone, as her eyes looked at the ground, moving slowly to the fire. Her gaze held there for the moment, before she looked over her shoulder at him, standing in the same place she had been in. Once again, she fell silent, apparently not one to stick to a conversation.

He nodded, leting a small laugh flirt from his throat. \"Well little Winglie, whilst you are under this roof, i have a few rules for you to follow.\" He started slowly, stil caught offgaurd when ever she looked at him those burning crimson orbs seemed to weaken his normally powerful aura. He was a little threatened by it, but nothing that couldnt be changed. \"You will listen to me undoubtedly. I ask you to jump, you say how high, The same goes for Anna, shes as much your master as I am, and will assign you tasks to do, and other things. As you said yourself.. I own you, And with you, ill do as i please\" He said softly, letting his hands trail over her flat stomach, stopping just below her breasts, he thought he could feel her tense, but couldnt be completely sure, feeling those wings of hers pressed against his chest, he could hear Anna calling to him. \"Seems your bath is ready\" He told her softly, releasing her from his grasps, having Anna grasp her arm and lead her up the stairs.

Kakurine always did seem to intimidate people with the color of her eyes, even though she appeared to be an unthreatful person. Her wings shook themselves slightly, ruffling the shining feathers. Out of her entire appearance, her wings looked the most clean. She walked after Anna, still holding that calm, somewhat eerie sense around her. Being inside of a cage for so long, being considered a slave, she had given up on caring about herself. Her hair was in her eyes slightly, trying to hide the color of them, not wanting to intimidate others any more. She always felt concious about it, but she knew there was not much she could do for it.

Lex waited a moment, watching the two of them trudge up the stairs to the bathroom, leading Kakurine inside. IT was a large bathroom, the white basin rested in the middle of the room on four feet, shaped somewhat like wolves paws, the marble was a deep green, veined with white and grey, it was on the counters and floors, the walls painted white. Anna tested the water with her hand, it was hot, slight steam rising from it, but she needed the cleasing desprately, having been around the decay that long. \"Alright, strip down and get in\" Anna told her softly, leaving the room to give her some slight privacy, she came back in moments later, a small white sleeping gown, which probably ended about Kakurine\'s thigh, and a soft wollen robe. \"Here are you things.. call me when your done\" she said softly, giving her a smile before shutting the door once again.

Kakurine took off her old tunic, and got into the bath. She winced a bit at the heat, but felt better when she sank in. She sighed softly, and scrubbed herself, a bit awkward since it had been a while since she had a bath. She thought to herself while in there, as she washed out her hair, bringing shine back to it once more. Her wings were washed next, making the silvery feathers almost sparkle. When she was done with that, she kept her wings out of the water, to let them dry, as she finished getting the dirt off of her. At last, when she was done, she got out, dried off, and got dressed. Sighing softly, she raised her voice louder than her soft tone, for the first time in a long while. \"Anna?\"

Anna seemed to be waiting outside the door, she opened it, seeing that Kakurine was cleased and looking rather nice, she seemed to have more of a glow now. Smiling softly, she shook her head a little, tutting. \"Hmm.. this wont do, i anticipated.\" she murmured, pulling out a small blade, Anna walked behind her, slashing two large slits into the back of her robe, threading her wings through them, as not to be bunched under the cloth. \"There, much better\" She mumbled softly, examining her work with a nod. \"I belive the Lord is in the living room, If you wish to visit with him... Hes really a kind man once you get to know him, dont let his ego and size scare you\" She told Kakurine with a smile, straitening out her hair a little before walking into the bathroom further, beginning to clean up the tub and mess around.

\"Thank you...\" She replied, with a small bow of her head, before she left the bathroom, and went towards the living room. Her wings folded neatly against her back, fortenatly for her, short enough to dangling above her ankles. Her gaze wandered around a bit, as she tried to memorize the place as best as she could. It was much larger than what she was used to, and a lot more confusing. At last, she walked into the livingroom, looking around slightly to find Alexander. She looked sheepish, since she barely knew her way around the place.

He sat infront of the fireplace, seemingly a hog for any heat... being a Vampire had taken real heat from him, only gaining from his victims and outside sources. He had heard her approach, but said nothing for the moment, just rising from his chair, blinking a few times when he saw the change in her... she looked rather exquisite, the dirt that was cleansed from her hair and wings almost made them shimmer, he had a sudden urge to touch her wings, but did nothing, holding onto what little composure he had, motioning to the chair next to him. \"Come, Join me Kakurine\" he asked, or rather commanded her softly, he had changed into more comfortable attire, a simple white shirt, the sleeves rolled up slightly on his forearms, the cris cross lacing at the neck undone, hanging limply on his large frame. He wore the simple black trousers of before. His granite orbs danced over her form, wrapped up in that robe.. he had an urge ro remove her from it, but wouldnt, not yet.. he had will.. but was it strong enough?

Silently, her gaze staying on him, she slowly walked over. She looked sort of reluctant, for she never had been asked to sit by anyone before. Slowly, she sat down in the chain next to him, looking up slightly. Her skin and hair were still slightly damp from her bath, but her wings were completely dry, and in full shine. The large wings curved around her slightly, covering her shoulders a bit. She had a habit to wrap her wings around her, from being in that slave market for so long. She was unable to stretch her wings out before, and now that she had the chance, she almost dared herself not to do it. She was used to being cramped in small places, by now.

By this time, he was utterly starving. watching her sit down in the large wingbacked velvet seat, he walked slowly closer to her, leaning his hands upon the arms of the chair, leaning over her, going into his inspection mode once again it seemed. He paused, just looking into her eyes.. they didnt seem as lost as before, more like imtimidated, or maybe just confused.. it was common, he expected her to be frightened.. she would know her pourpose very soon. He paused, leaning his head next to her ear, speaking entirely to her as he usually did. \"Do you know why I purchased you, little one?\" He asked her softly, lowering his lips to the softened flesh of her neck, just brushing against it, feeling her heat her pulse, all those things he craved. \"Its because of your flavor.. its incredible, irrisistible... but never quite fufilling enough.\" He mused on softly, pulling open her robe slightly, exposing more of her throat to him. \"You wont die, i promise.. you wont even change, ill always leave you enough to keep you alive, while satisfying myself as well.\" He spoke all this against her throat, casressing it with those cold lips of his, eventually finding his point. Raising his hand to her opposite cheek, he held her head steady. \"Are you ready?\" He whispered egarly, running his tongue over her soft flesh, desperate to taste her.

\"Alright...\" She said softly. In truth, she was a bit nervous, but her face would never show it to anyone. Her pulse, however, did. The speed of it, pounding through her, hammering against her. However, she submitted to him, willing to let him feed off of her. She thought of him doing this another way; he freed her from the market, and this was her payment. It made her a bit calmer, and more unresistant towards him. She got herself calmed down enough inside, so she was read. \"I\'m ready...\" She spoke so soft, it was often hard for others to hear her. But her volume was loud enough for Alexander.

He did not tell her he was going in, it would only make her tense, so without warning, he sunk his fangs into her throat, not aiming for any veins, only catching small ones, they could be easily repaired. The sudden rush of that familiar liquid cocaine met his hungry mouth, he engorged her completely, letting a small moan of desperation for her blood pass his throat, echoing on the hallow of her throat. He drank contentedly, dark eyelashes fluttering closing into the extacy of drinking from her... he wanted to drain her dry so badly, to take all she had.. but another part of him wanted to keep her, wanting to experince her again. He eventually pulled back, lips and teeth coated in the thick red liquid, the two small puncture marks, he pressed his fingertips to them, licking the rest of her sweet essence from his lips and off his fangs. His chest heaved, unable to belive that this little creatures blood could have such an effect on him.. she would surely be weak, the loss was high, but not detremental. \"How are you feeling?\" He whispered softly, kneeling before her, he stroked her hair softly, lifting it out of her eyes.

Amazing enough, she had kept silent, and awake through the entire thing. However, adding on to the stinging from him biting her, she felt exhausted. She knew she would, and at first she was worried that he would drink her dry, and kill her. But since she survived that, she felt a bit better. \"Tired...\" She said, her voice somehow going even softer than before. She was breathing slowly, partially to keep herself calm, so she would not get too excited, and faint from her blood loss. She looked at him, a slightly sleepy sense around her now. It didn\'t feel too bad; she just felt as if she ran a long distance, non-stop, but other then that, she looked, and felt rather fine.

He smiled. Giving her a nod. \"You may rest for as long as you desire\" He told her softly, pressing his lips to her forehead, before picking her up slowly, one hand beneath her knees, the other around her shoulders. She was suprisingly light, he had expected the wings to be heavier than what they prooved to be. He carried her slowly up the stairs, examining her exaustion, hoping she wouldnt go into a coma from the blood loss, he would have to keep her awake for a bit. Sighing softly, he watched her eyelids flutter with her exaustion, bringing a small smile to his lips... not many of his victims ever lived past a night in his home, so watching her in his arms was almost surreal. Eventually, he found the room Anna had prepared for her, kicking it open, and shutting it once he was inside. He set her feet down, letting her balance against him as he held her round the waist, using his other hands to pull back the down sheets, lifting her once again before settling her into them. He pulled them over her form, just watching her for a moment. \"You did very well, Kakurine.. im very proud\" He told her softly, brushing the hair from her face.

She opened her mouth to say \'thank you\', but could not get the words out. She was too exhausted at the moment, and needed to recover. Her eyes closed slowly all the way, giving her a rather peaceful appearance. Her chest rose and fell slowly in her slumber, as she laid there, as innocent as a child. Her wings occasionally twitched, not used to being spread out slightly, like how they were before she became a slave. Kakurine\'s face was somewhat pale for the moment, but seemed to be regaining color, slowly. Apparently, it wouldn\'t take her too long to recover from blood loss.

He sat next to her for a bit, just stroking her hair, watching her sleep. Hmm.. Was he getting attached? He scoffed to himself, maybe obessed with her flavor and his own sexual desires, but never attached.. Vampires couldnt get attached, only obsessed, and lusting. He sighed a ragged breath, slowly standing, stoking the fireplace in her room to make sure she had adaquate warmth in the early spring chill. He opened her door silently, not wanting to wake her, before stepping out, shutting the door behind him. For some reason he felt anxious, maybe a little disconcerted.. Was he worried. Shaking his head, he assumed his usual composure, pushing away these forien and envading feelings. Slowly walking back to his room, he stripped down, climbing into bed naked.. the night was weakening, and the sunlight would soon be here.. his room had no windows, and was always dark, like a crypt. Sleep came incedibly easily for him, conking out as soon as the first rays of light hit the hirizon.

Though Kakurine was not a vampire, and her species was not of a nocturnal type, her sleeping pattern had been changed over the years, getting her used to wakeing up at night, and sleeping in the day. She awoke, however, a little late into the next night, her eyelids twitching. Her face had regained it\'s normal color, and she looked rather well now. She yawned softly, and shook her head a bit, waking herself up. Kakurine felt greatful for her half-breed heritage. Without it, she wouldn\'t be able to recover so quickly, since they were natural healers. She got out of her bed after a moment, straightening it up, before she opened her door, looking out a bit.

The house was slowly waking up as well, Alexander hadnt really wished to rise, sleeping in and past the rising of the moonlight. He eventually got up, sighing reluctantly, he remembered the night before... strange things had happened in his lifetime, but this little Winglie was surely the strangest. He washed up in the basin in his room, dressing in attire similar to the night before, he walked downstairs with a seemingly joyous bounce to his step, he had been hungry for so long he lacked energy, but now he was hapier and a bit more boyish than before. He came into the kitchen, giving Anna a kiss on the cheek, she was suprised by this, but only laughed, knowing it was his normal \"after feeding\" attitiude. \"ill be at the arching feild, Tell Kakurine if she is looking\" He said softly, going out the back door, leaving Anna to tend to Kakurines breakfast, she was unsure of what she liked, so made many different things, laying out danishes and eggs, bacon, anything you could think of for a breakfast desire.

Kakurine brushed down her hair a bit with her fingers first, since she felt more awkward with her appearance in this elegant place. She was slightly, uncomfortable, with how nice everything looked, compared to the rotten, and decayed look of the market. She soon came out of her room, and went down to the living room for a moment, looking around. She soon found the kitchen, and walked over into it, looking a bit surprised at the sight of the food.

Anna quickly hustled her to the table, setting a dish of bacon and eggs infront of her, placing a danish on the side with some bread. \"Eat up now, your tiny, leaving in that horrible pit so long.. poor girl. Im sure your still a little tired from The lords feeding.. Not as bad as you thought is it?\" She said softly to Kakurine, while tending to some dishes and things while she let her eat in peace.

\"Thank you, Miss Anna...\" She said, bowing her head slightly again. She was still as soft as ever, though not quite as timid as the other night, slowly adjusting to ways around this place. She slowly ate her fill, and a bit more, since her fill happend to be a small amount. She was used to living off of a small ammount of food. When she finished, she picked up after herself.

Anna shook her head slightly, taking the plate from her hand and setting it near the wash basin. \"Now now, dont be taking away my pourpose in this house...\" She smiled warmly, giving full view of her fangs, obviously more comfortable with her Vampiric self than Alexander had been the night before. \"Oh, I laid out some things in the living room for you to wear, cant go around in your robe all day\" She added softly, pointing to the dress, it was rather exquisite for the most part, a long blackskirt, simple, but elegant, an oriental style desgin on the corset, thick black ribbons on the back and sides, along with a white camisole, frilled around the neckline, it sunk onto ones arms, revealing shoulders and collarbones. Next to this lay a black cloak, the clasp bore the same engravings as on the enblem above the fireplace.. obviously the sign of his family. \"Get dressed quickly, its cold, ill come help you with the corset when your ready.\" Anna called.

Kakurine nodded to her, walking out, and gathering up the clothing. She went back into her room, her wings flexing slightly as she walked. She was longing to stretch them out, now that they were not restrained anymore. She looked at her new clothing, not too sure about it; she was really used to only her tunic, but she managed to get it on with hardly any problems, except for her wings getting in the way. She stretched them out a bit, having a rather large wingspan.

Anna slowly walked up the stairs, knocking on the door and peeking inside once she thought it was alright. Looking to Kakurine, she noticed the slivery desgins on the corset seemed to go rather well with her wings and hair, her striking eyes the only thing that brought real color to her attire. \"Would you like some help love?\" She asked in her cheery irish accent, she noticed that the edge of the corset ended low enough as not to tamper with her wings, and the camisole could easily be pulled down to give them room without exposing her. Anna softly tugged on the black ribbons, she was already small enough, and did not need to be pulled to tightly as to give her discomfort. \"So... What did it feel like?\" Anna asked curiously, having always had a secret obsession with her Lord, having witnessed him with many victims, he seemed to show now intrest in her or any other vampires. \"being bitten, i mean\" she clarified, Anna had been bitten so long ago that it seemed as if it never happened.

She did not answer right away, as if trying to think of the right words to say. \"It\'s wasn\'t so bad, I guess...\" She said, looking back at her. \"I mean...Well, it hurt at first, but when I didn\'t think about it, I just started to feel rather sleepy...\" She shrugged lightly, her feathers ruffling a bit when they moved. Kakurine\'s feathers soon smoothed back down. \"But...it just wasn\'t all so bad...It only stung a bit afterwards...\" She rubbed her neck a bit where she was bitten, before letting her hands rest at her sides.

She smiled softly, going to Kakurines other side, pulling and tugging on the ribbon on that side. \"I see\" She said softly, almost feeling jealously that Her lord had drank from this creature, but not showing any of this. \"Yes.. It was very obvious he didnt want to hurt you... he must have been in your room for hours while you slept\" She said, a slight twinge of spite on her voice, she looked down, tying the bow quickly, then smoothing down her skirt. \"There. you look wonderful. If your looking for the Lord, he out back, arching\" She said swiftly, before stepping out the door, unwanting for her jealousy to get the better of her.

\"Thank you, Miss Anna...\" She called softly after her, looking at her new clothes for a bit. She felt awkward, for she had never worn these types of clothing before. She soon left her room, her wings curving around her slightly again. Kakurine walked out a bit, curious with where Alexander was. She soon went towards the back, looking for him.

Alexander had been lingering in the feilds in the back... which seemed to go on forever, dotted with the houses of the tenants that lived on his land, a large barn off to the side, housing his horses and other livestock, mostly for selling purposes. He seemed to stick out in the yellowish colored grass, still dead from the winter, barely springing to life yet. He held a large bow in his hands, the arrow angled slightly, off in the distance a target could be seen. He aimed, and the arrow went flying from his hands, only to land a few inches from the red center. He frowned, furrowing his brows a bit.. something rucked his concentration, he looked around, soon spotting Kakurine near the back door, the wind was blowing a bit coldly, whisping his hair around his face, along with her own. \"Kakurine... you should be inside, its much to cold\" He told her softly, his large form shielding her a bit from the cold wind.

Her wings curled around her a bit when the wind blew, and she soon stepped back a couple steps, back into the house. Kakurine looked at him a bit. \"You\'re a good archer...\" She commented softly, after seeing him fire an arrow at the target. When she was back in the warmth of the house, her wings uncurled from around her, once again resting at her back. She brushed her hair out of her face slightly, but left a few strands to stay infront of her crimson eyes.

He smiled softly, remembering the bow in his hand and quiver on his back, he blushed a little. \"Oh, thank you... I could teach you if you wanted, when it gets warmer of course\" He said softly to her, seeming almost bemused with her presence. \"Have you eaten? I dont think you should be out of bed yet.. are you sure your strong enough?\" He asked worriedly, pressing the back of his cold fingetips to her forehead, frowning a bit. She seemed alright, he of course knew nothing of her people or thier increased healing ablilities. He took a few moments to take in her attire.. she looked stunning to him, he was a bit speachless when he finally did notice... surely this was not the same dirty creature he had paid to much for? Ironic, he thought with a grin.

\"I\'d like to be taught how...thank you...\" She said, bowing her head slightly. \"Yes, I have eaten...and yes, I am strong enough...\" Kakurine gave a half smile, the first thing ever close to a true smile that had ever been seen from her. \"Winglies can heal rather quickly...I guess that\'s why I\'m doing well, right now...\" She said softly, looking up at him. Kakurine had never seem to be too happy, but what she had showed him, was the most emotion she had ever shown to anyone before.

He sighed and nodded, giving her a smile as he pulled his hand off her forehead, using it to brush her silvery locks behind one of her neat little ears. \"Oh, i forgot to metion, I have some.. assoiciates comming tonight, I want you to be careful around them. Thier trying to buy some land off of me, but are a rather.. brutish bunch, and with something as young and beautiful as you in the house, they might become more animalistic than normal\" He said with a wink, but he did want her to be on her gaurd. \"Dont worry though, im sure they will be as respectable as junkyard dogs\" He added, pressing his lips to her forehead fleetingly, before walking up the stairs to change.

\"Ok...\" Kakurine called after him slightly. She frowned a bit, then blanked her face once more. She wasn\'t too sure of how to be on her guard around these associates. Brushing her hair out of her face again, she walked a bit around the house. Kakurine stretched out a bit, and flexed her wings slightly. She walked back up to her room, sitting down on the edge of her bed.

The night was young, and soon enough there was a pounding on the door, Alexander looked out from his room, wearing a navy blue tunic and pants, ajusting his belt slightly as we went to the door, but Anna had reached it before him, the three men seemed to barge in, greeting Alexander friendily, before making themselves rather at home in his living room, as they usually did, slyly inquiring about drinks, alexander just smiled as Anna went to fetch some, they always managed to drain him of his fine wines with thier little visits. \"well my friends, what part of my land are you asking about now?\" He asked curiously, his friends all seeming to speak in unison, untill the eldest one, or seemingly so, his hair lightly flecked with white. \"Your eastern fields, they are almost connected to ours, we wish to expand.\" The others agreed. Alexander looked up to the rooms, nodding, wondering about Kakurine.

Kakurine was listening a bit from inside of her room, her hearing rather sensitive. She slowly opened her door, and peeked out, moving closer to the living room, just to catch a glimpse of the men. She had an immense ammount of curiousity; it was part of the reason how she got caught and turned into a slave in the first place. She was silent though, as she stayed out of sight, peering in the living room. She couldn\'t help the fact she was so curious. Her elf-like ears enhanced her hearing, and often triggered her curious nature.

one of the younger males, a man named Wyvern, seemed to notice her shuffling around the stairs. He turned his head, catching a glimpse of the strange creature. \"Alexander... you have been holding out on us\" He said devilishly, the others turning and getting thier own glimpses of Kakurine, obviously getting more of a first impression then Alexander did, she had been horrid looking when he found her, and now she looked elegant, beautiful. Alexandger cringed a little, but mustered a smile. \"Gentleman id like you to meet Kakurine.. Kakurine, this is Wyvern, Edgar and Charles\" He said softly, having wanted to keep her out of sight as long as possible, they werent quite drunk enough in his mind, and might do something stupid. Wyvern stood, taking Kakurines hand and kissing her knuckles. \"a pleasure\" He said softly, keeping her hand in his, Alexander held off the urge to growl.

She casted Alexander an appologetic glance, before bowing her head slightly at Wyvern. \"Hello, to you all...\" She said, in that same, soft tone, but the timidness seemed to have returned for the moment. She felt a bit terrible at how her curiousity seemed to have gotten herself into trouble once again. A soft sigh, and she stepped back slightly, planning on just heading back to her room now. Her wings curved around her slightly, even the smallest bit of light shining off of them.

Alexander caught this, but he couldnt lock her away for the night, so he had expected an intoduction.. but they were still very coherent. Charles soon stood, being the eldest, and much much older than even Alexander, he went into a bit of a tissy when seeing her. \"Alexander.. How did you manage to aquire a Winglie? She must have cost you dearly\" He said, pushing Wyvern out of the way, frowning at the lusting young man, Charles simply examined her as a possesion, tilting her head slightly, examining her eyes and brushing against the softness of her wings, This was all obviously amusing to Edgar, who just sat back and watched. That was the last straw though, he wasnt going to stand by while they mauled her like an animal. \"Gentlemen, please\" He said softly, knocking away His hands, standing infront of Kakurine slightly. Charles raised an eyebrow to this. \"My my.. testy are we? She must taste devine then\" He said chidely, Alexander growled in his throat warningly.

Kakurine went behind Alexander, then, and backed up a bit more. She swallowed slightly. She had trusted Alexander, but these three made her uncomfortable. Without turning, she backed up into her room, and shut the door, her wings curving around her again. She hated being seen like that, and treated like some prized possession, but again, that emotion wouldn\'t be shown in her face. She waited in her room now, since she didn\'t want to risk staying out there anymore, even with Alexander protecting her.

Wyvern had set off to follow her, only to be stopped by a clench to the throat by Alexander, he was angry now, but still managing to hold onto himself. \"I think its time you left\" He ordered them after a while of them trying to buy her from him, offering him triple what he paid, but he refused, and didnt even get the land they had inquired about.. he knew they would be back, or at least one of them. He sighed, flopping back down in the chair, closing his eyes for a moment... he barely ever cared about his slaves, feeding off them, and if they didnt die, then he would simply dress them up and sell them.. but she was different somehow, he didnt know if it was his lust or his desire for her blood, but he wanted her for himself, and he couldnt even explain his own want. Burrying his head in his hands for a moment, he calmed himself down, Anna patting him lightly on the shoulder as she cleaned.

When Kakurine felt it might be safe then, and she came out slightly, looking ashamed, and wondering if Alexander was mad at her for coming out. \"I\'m sorry...\" She said to him softly, bowing her head slightly again, hoping he wouldn\'t be mad at her. \"I\'m sorry for coming out...I shouldn\'t have...\" Her hands twitched a bit in nervousment. She didn\'t know if he would be angry, or upset with her, and she knew there would be problems if she got on Alexander\'s bad side...

He looked up to her, seeing how innocent she seemed, he surely couldnt be mad at her for simply being inquisitive.. he was just mad at those brutes for treating her like anything less than a lady, he took her twitching hands into his, they were so small, he smiled, standing up so he was towering over her, rubbing the backs of her hands lightly with his thumbs. \"No Little one, its not your fault.. they are animals, treating you like that... i should have killed them on the spot.\" He said coldly, but never showing anything but tenderness to her. \"did they hurt you?\" He asked curiously, brushing his own fingertips to her wings where Charles had touched them, as if searching for a wound, or soothing them.

She looked up at him, her face still blank as always. \"No, I\'m fine...I haven\'t been hurt...\" Kakurine sighed softly, relieved that he was not angry with her. Her wings smoothed down, and seemed to sag slightly, in a relaxing state, that seemed to soothe her. Her wings being brushed was comforting, like how kittens are when they are stroked behind the ears. She gazed back up at Alexander, and gave him the small, half smile. \"Thank you...\" She said softly.

He noticed that she seemed to enjoy having her wings touched, he smiled and continued, his fingetips grazing through the sliky feathers, relishing in the liquid feel of them, watching the light dance on thier lutre. \"Thanking me? What for?\" He asked curiously, her eyes meeting his, he rested in the comfort of having her close... she had mortal warmth, something he craved, and was reluctant to let go of. He wanted to touch her, be with her so badly it almost hurt.. but now, he felt as if she were made of glass, and refused to touch her in any other way then soft and gentle... what had this little creature done to the cold and bloodhungry Alexander of such a short while ago?

\"Well...\" Kakurine started, feeling greatly relaxed while Alexander continued to stroke her wings. \"You went to stop them, and keep them from me, when I didn\'t want them near...\" She said, her voice soft, but the timidness she regained when the three men were there, was gone. She felt much more comfortable around Alexander, even though she knew she was a slave for him, and perhaps sometimes, someone to feed off of.

His digits continued to dance over her wings softly, he noticed her relax, he smiled as she spoke, listening to her words. \"Kakurine... of course I did, as you said yourself.. I own you, which also means, i look after you, protect you\" He said softly, looking down to her, feeling more and more drawn in.. he could smell the soap she had bathed with, her own feminine scent.. he remembered her flavor.. his mind was swimming by now, but he simply stood, relaxed and stroking, switching hands and moving to her other one, sometimes massaging the joints of the wing. He didnt really know how much more of this he could take...

Kakurine was becoming even more relaxed, her eyes closing softly. She let out a content sigh, enjoying the feeling of him careasing her soft wings, as they sagged a bit more, her body swaying slightly. She couldn\'t help it; her wings were very sensitive, and felt very good being stroked. She opened her eyes again, realising if she relaxed too much, she might just fall asleep on the spot. She actually smiled, more than her usual half smile towards him.

He looked into those incredibly alluring orbs of hers, watching her almost fall asleep... he rose his other hands to her cheek, tilting it upwards.. he was so desperate to touch her, to feel some of her warmth, it just wasnt fair to him that she couldnt see it.. not that he let himself be seen to much.. she probably didnt want it anyway, he realized. Pulling her closer to him, he rested her form against him, relishing in the heat she gave off, continuing his caress as his hand trailed into her hair, keeping himself from just grabbing her and making her his.

She leaned against him slightly, stepping a bit closer. She wondered why she was feeling so strange around him. Normally, she was a shy, quiet person, who barely spoke, or looked at anyone. But she had relaxed, and felt actually happy around him. Kakurine almost cozied up with him, standing there, completely relaxed, and content for the time being. She smiled a bit, as she looked at him again.

He couldnt take it anymore. Slowly he leaned his head down to her, lingering his lips just above hers as she looked up to him... he couldnt do it. Clenching his teeth, he stepped back, releasing her from his touch. \"I-im sorry Kakurine.. Ive marred you enough as it is, im not going to mark you, i cant...\" He said, mostly trying to convince himself, he could feel his insides calling in lust for her, but his mind wouldnt let him do it. He just gave her a rushed kiss to her forehead, looking into her eyes for a moment. \"It.. its late, little one. Go on, the sun will be up soon.\" He said simply, ordering her off to bed.

\"Alright...\" She said softly, nodding a bit. \"Sleep well...\" She bowed her head again, then went back to her room, trying to figure out why she was feeling like that around him. She got undressed, and got into some bed clothes, before crawling into her bed, and curling up. She covered herself up, and closed her eyes, slowly drifting off to sleep. Once more, she looked peaceful, and innocent as she had the other night, falling into a deep slumber.

He cursed himself, resting his hands on the mantle of his fireplace, pacing his room... it just wasnt fair.. he felt as if he were constantly locked in a cage with her, his agggravation nothing but his own desires.. was he really this weak? this... carnal? Surely there was more to being a vampire then sex and blood. He felt an urge to break something, scream.. anything. But the stayed silent... maybe he would feel better if he checked on her? Yes, he thought, that would calm him down. Slowly walking down the hall, he stopped, opening her door silently, he crept in, the sun had not risen, and the heavy curtains were pullled across, blocking out anything that might come. He walked slowly to her bedside, kneeling down to inspect her, brushing the hair off her sleeping visage, her childlike innocence clenching at his heart.. could he really desire to sully this... child? A sigh passed his lips, he leaned over her, kissing her softened lips fleetingly, barely even touching them, before he stood, indeed feeling calmer.

Kakurine had a small smile appear on her sleeping face, as she cozied in the bed even more, looking more relaxed, even in her sleep. Her wings were smoothing against her back, as if they had their own mind, resting automatically. Kakurine rolled over slightly on her bed, her hair falling over her face once more. True, she seemed only a child, but she acted so timid around others; Alexander had been the first to see her more outgoing side. She stayed in a peaceful sleep, undisturbed, and a bit more peaceful with him around.

He smiled, shaking his head slightly, walking out of the room and shutting her door, he walked down the hall with sort of smile.. yes, he could be stronger than that...and more or less, she didnt seemed to mind him, maybe even enjoying his company. He slipped off inot his room, shutting the door, he stripped down and climbed into bed... dreaming vivid dreams, he tossed and turned, waking up early, he knew the sun was not fully set... he lingered there, resting his hands behind his head, just thinking, knowing those insufferable landmongerers would be back, if not today, then surely tomorrow.

Waking up a little after sunset, Kakurine stretched out, and got out of her bed. She stood up, her wings stretching out fully, as she yawned a bit. She walked out of her room, going out into the living room for a moment. She sat down, and rubbed her eyes, still not quite awake just yet. She rested for a moment, shaking her head slightly, to become more alert. Standing up again, her wings wrapped around her, acting as if they were a robe for her.

He got up a little after her, Anna of course was already up, preparing Kakus breakfast, much smaller in portion than before, knowing the little girl didnt eat very much. Lex walked down the stairs, having wrapped a red robe around himself, it was a little to posh for him, but it had been his fathers, and sometimes he felt a urge to pull it out again. He walked into the kitchen, greeting the two ladies goodmorning before streching slightly, examinging Kakurine slightly, he could see she wore the simple bedgarments, revealing her slightly to him, he looked away, it was so early to be doing this to yourself, he thought, setting himself down at the table. \"Kakurine, come eat\" He called her, sitting across the table from where her food had been place.. he noticed Anna had become almost silent lately, he frowned a little, watching her walk away, curious to what might be wrong with her.

Kakurine frowned a bit when she saw Anna leave, and looked at Alexander. \"I didn\'t offend her...did I...?\" She asked, as she sat down at the table infront of her food. Kakurine seemed to allways be concerned about if she angered someone, or became a bother to others. Partially because she feared about going back to the market--such an awful place, she didn\'t know how much longer she would be able to stand in there, if Alexander hadn\'t come. Not touching her food just yet, Kakurine looked at him, awaiting an answer.

Alexanders eyebrows furrowed a little, shruging his shoulders. \"You know, im not totally sure whats wrong with her.. you cant prod into other vampires minds.. indeecent, not to mention they know the moment you do, and might not be to happy with you inside thier heads... Ill have to ask her later\" He told Kakurine softly, smiling a little. \"Im sure its nothing, It takes alot to anger Anna\" He added, motioning to her plate. \"Come on now, eat, you need your strength\" He told her in an almost fatherly tone.. but it was far from that. in actual fact, he was begining to hunger again.. because he had not drained his victim completely, most full feedings left a vampire satisfied for well over a week, but after about three days of the taste he had gotten from her, he was hungry again.. he wanted her securely replenished before drinking again.

\"Alright...\" She said, as she started to eat then. While Kakurine was in the market, she was rarely fed. However, her owner kept her alive enough, since she appeared to be worth something, with at least her wings. She enjoyed the fact that she was eating full meals now, and was no longer chained to something. When she finished, she couldn\'t help but to clean up after herself. Old habits die hard, they say. She was owned once before, but was returned with disatisfaction of her work.

He smiled softly as she tended to her own things, It seemed Anna had gone out to the barn, and was looking after the animals... odd, he thought to himself, she barely ever went outside at night, a superfluous fear of lycans that she had... there were not lycans in the area though, and most of them were smart enough to look after themselves, not getting into the affairs of Vampires. He sighed slightly, about to walk into the living room when he heard a knock on the door.. usually the back door was only used for tenants on his grounds, he hoped nothing had arrised... opening the door, staring at him with a cheeky smile was none other than Wyvern. Alexander frowned, almost growling. \"what do you want?\" He asked angrily. \"Now now, Lex, no need to be so defensive.. im meerly here to get that land.. you seemed to get rather.. angry at our last little meeting, wouldnt you say?\" Alexander just grunted and opened the door all they way, letting in the cold night, saring Wyvern down as he did. Wyvern remained cocky and smiling, looking over Kakurine lustfully before entering the living room.

Kakurine\'s sharp hearing had detected Wyvern\'s voice, and a pang of timidness and worry filled her. She finished up cleaning after herself. She was still in her bed clothes, which made her feel very uncomfortable. When she dried her hands, her wings wrapped around her to conceal her more, bowing her head in a quick greeting to Wyvern and Alexander, before heading for her room, at least to change into something less revealing. Her wings stayed around her the whole time.

Wyvern\'s eyes followed her up the stairs, watching the gentle feminine sawy in her walk, smirking wickedly. Alexander finally let out a small growl, jerking himself out of the lustful trance, looking back to Alexander. \"Sorry.. now, about that girl- i mean land..\" He said quickly, grinning, he loved getting Alexander rilled up, which was easily done in certain fields. He just tensed, glaring a bit. \"Just for that, i would give you it for less than 600 an acre\" He said snidely, glaring down to the man, who was rather tall, but Alexander was like a mountain to most people. Wyvern snorted a bit, returning the cold glare. \"Fine... and how much might you be selling that fine specimen of femininity for.. the way you were fighting for her, id say she tasted like the heavens.\" This immideately brought Alexander into a hiss, baring his fangs in warning, Wyvern simply grinned and stood. \"Oh .. what did you call her? \"Little one?\" How quaint. Why dont you call her down here now.. id give her a ...thurough inspection. YOU! SLAVE! GET DOWN HERE!\" He barked, Alexander had an urge to strangle him.. but guests had the right to command slaves, he could do nothing for the moment unless he caused her harm.

A small thump was heard from Kakurine\'s room, as the yell had surprised her, and made her drop the dress she was getting into, after she jumped about a foot in the air. Her feathers were ruffled, but she quickly got dressed, in a similar outfit she was in the other night. Since Kakurine\'s hearing was better than normal, her ears now throbbed with the yell. She went down to the living room, her face blank, though her heart was racing her her chest after her startlment. Kakurine soon stood in the room, and said softly, \"Yes, sir...?\"

Wyvern\'s grin widened, making small, paced circles around her small form, his fingertips lingering just above her wings, not touching her.... Alexander dammed it all, he wished he could just throw his out, but if word spread then he might loose his tennants.. and hace those gastly kights banging on the door.. they were powermad, and he worried about what they might do to little Kakurine.. Raping girls was not beneath them... and they\'d make him watch. So for his own sake and hers, he held his cool. \"Wyvern... if you want the land.. ill give it for 450, but thats the lowest.\" Really he would give it to him for a dollar, just if it got him out. \"Land? Whos talking about land anymore... Im feeling rather famished, not fair for you to hog all this lovely girl to yourself\" He growled next to Kakurines throat, still not toucing her, The rumbling in Alexanders throat seemed like a continuous humm.

Kakurine\'s wings appeared to tense in nervousment, the feathers becoming ruffled. Her face remained blank, something she seemed to be good at. Kakurine had been in the market long enough to know, that barely anyone would care if she was afraid, angry, sad, or happy. Therefore, she never seemed to let on even the slightest bit of emotion, except a small amount of happiness and serenity to Alexander. But even her long practiced emotionless face seemed to almost faulter a bit, as she got a bit nervous around Wyvern. Kakurine side-stepped away from Wyvern, to delay anything that she could.

Wyvern hissed in her ear when she moved, grasping onto her arm. \"Did I tell you to move, Slave?\" He barked in her ear, this was obviously the last straw for Alexander, he had just been waiting for the moment when he would touch her, thus revoking any politeness he had to bear. Snarling, he almost lunged at Wyvren, Who just moved out of the way, his reflexed movements, grasping her around the neck, pressing his fangs to her flesh, just enough to brake the flesh. \"I know were the veins are Alexander... you dont want me to kill her, do you? IT would be such a loss\" He cooed, evil in his voice and eyes, Alexander hissed and snarled again, trying to get a grasp on her almost as Quick as Wyvern, but not quite, as he pulled Kakurine out of his grasps. \"Ah ah Alexander.. wouldnt want me to slip now, killing her?\" He tested, Alexander backed off for a moment. \"What do you Want dammit? Money? Land? You can have it\" He growled, eyes seeming to slit, burning a neon blue anger. Wyvern just laughed. \"both... 100 pounds for her release.. and the land for 250 an acre\" Alexander faultered, but nodded his agreement... not before sinking his fangs into Kakurines throat, almost directly into her older holes from Alexanders bite, bringing forth blood, he sucked it out quickly, obviously a skill he had from draining whores in the streets, dropping her body to the ground. Alexander took the free moment to grab him by the throat, picking him up easily.. throwing him out the door on his arse.

Kakurine didn\'t even have enough strength to stop her fall with her wings, as she collapsed on the ground, a small gasp escaping her mouth when she hit. She was breathing slowly again, exhausted once more, perhaps a little more so. Her ears rang from Wyvern yelling in her ear, making her wince lightly from it, her slightly pointed ears twitching a bit. She looked up from the ground, wanting to call for Alexander for some help, but she barely had the voice to do so. Instead, she stayed silent, her eyes fluttering again in her more tired state.

He slammed the door, keeping himself from killing the rancid horrible vampire, getting such pleasure out of torturing him, he rushed to Kakurines side, lifting her upper body from the ground, stroking her wings softly, he cluted her form to his. \"Oh god.. im so sorry, i should have never let him in, i should have...\" he paused, looking down to her fluttering eyelids, the torn neck, viciously ripping her flesh.. he had been an animal on her in such a short time, it was as if his movments flashed before Alexander, it was over before it have even begun.. Just how had Wyvern gotten so fast? Shaking his head from the thoughs, he looked back down to her, brushing the hair from her face, examining her wound. \"ah you alright my little one?\" He questioned her softly, barely even a whisper, he lifted her slowly, laying her down on the couch, not wanting to move her to much, just getting her closer to some warmth, she looked so pale.... his heart clenched with guilt.

\"W-weak...\" She said softly, her tone even softer than his. Her eyes still fluttered a bit, as if she was trying her best to stay awake at the moment. She knew she could heal quickly through the night, and hopefully be back to normal by the next night, or the one after. \"S-so...t-tired...\" She murmured, as her eyes closed a bit more. She tried not to worry, or panic over what had happen, so she would not fall unconcious, instead of asleep. Kakurine closed her eyes, resting a bit, slowly drifting into sleep.

He watched her fall asleep, he swore the next time one of those horrid men came to his door, the only thing he would be givng them was an arrow bettween the eyes, he felt himself boil, with anger and sadness, he stood, leaving her on the couch for a moment, stalking into the kitchen to grab a clean white rag, he ripped it into a thick strip, before walking back to her, tying it around her neck, making sure she didnt loose any more blood. Sighing half heartedly, he picked her up ever so gently, carrying her up the stairs to her room... apparently Anna had pulled her bedcovers back, which suprised Alexander, she must have heard the struggle.. then why didnt she help? He shook the thoughts from his mind, laying her stomach down into the sheets, watching her wings settle against her back, he sat down next to her on the soft crimson covers, stroking her wings lightly, into the wee hours of the morning, he hadnt wanted to leave her, eventually falling asleep next to her.

Kakurine slept in a couple more hours than normal, her eyes slowly opening to the darkness of the night. Her neck still stung a bit, from Wyvern\'s bite, but other than that, she appeared to be alright. Once again, thanks to her race, she managed a quick recovery. Kakurine yawned a bit, rubbed her eyes, as she got to her knees, and stretched out, her wings extending outward a bit. Her only problem for now, was that she still felt a bit tired, but her blood had returned to her.

Alexander, who even in his sleep seemed to have a benign affection for her, his arm had been wraped around her middle, but slipped off her form when she moved, he simpy grunted a bit and turned over, still rather sleepy from sitting up with her most of the day. He slept rather fitfully, seeming wrought with worry for his little creature, disgusted that someone else had fed off of her blood, and by force no less, the thought made his stomach hurt. Feeling the soft tips of her wings brush over him as he stretched, she nor he had changed that night, sleeping in thier clothing, which was rather uncomfortable, Alexander had kicked off his tunic, only wearing his pants, chest bare, his back now to her.

She looked at her side at Alexander, and a small smile had curled across her lips. She knew he must have been with her all day, and it made her feel a bit strange inside, a sort of attraction. She got off of the bed, carefull not to wake him. She kept the rag around her neck, just incase the wound had not closed just yet. She wasn\'t entirely sure on how quickly she could heal, therefore she wouldn\'t take any chances. She walked out of the door, and down towards the living room. A slightly sleepy look still in her eyes, her face returned to being blank again.

Alexander arose shortly after her, when the warmth of her frame finally left the sheets, he rose, smelling that she had already went down stairs. Strange, he thought to himself, barely ever did Vamipres scent out for someone, using keen intelect over animal instinct most times.. he wondered within himself why he clung to her carnal features, sight, touch smell, even her taste, which seemed to make his stomach growl at the moment, he would have to wait, damning that bastard Wyvern for drinking from her, ripping her neck to brutally, he could have easily killed her.. but no, he just tempted Alexander, the blood that oozed from her neck that night, his urge to finish her off.. it just wasnt right to him. Shaking his head, he rose from the bedsheets, making his way downstairs, avoiding using his nose to find her, simply relying on his eyes, he immideately went to the fireplace, loving its warmth in the late evening.

\"Good evening...\" Kakurine said. She was sitting down in a chair, warming up next to the fireplace as well. She wasn\'t cold or anything, but the extra warmth felt good to her. Her voice actually sounded a bit louder, as if she was trying to improve her soft volume each day. A half smile appeared on her face when she saw him, a bit of admiration growing each day. \"Did you sleep alright...?\" She asked, resting in the chair for the moment, since she still looked a bit tired.

He turned around, barely even noticing her there before she spoke, he turned his head, a smile appearing on his lips. \"Evening. And I slept fine little one. I really should be asking you that question... Im sorry for last night, it was unnacceptable for me to let his even speak to you like that... \" He rested his palms on the warm mantle, leaning against his arms, avoiding her eyes. \"Does your wound hurt to unbearably?\" He asked softly to her, rolling his shoulders a bit, feeling tense with guilt and a sink feeling in his stomach.

She shook her head, \"No, it doesn\'t hurt. I think it may be gone by now...\" She touched the rag, but did not remove it. \"It isn\'t your fault...\" She told him, looking up at his face, though he didn\'t meet her eyes. \"He was bound to do it sometime, I know he was...But remember, I am a slave...It shouldn\'t matter how they talk to me...\" Kakurine watched him for a moment, before looking at the fire. \"If you tried to stop him, he might have just killed me...\"

He let his arms fall, turning to her, he stood above her, looking at her small form curled up in that chair, he smiles. \"It matters to me how anyone talks to you, Slave or not, your a lady, and deserve at least a little respect.\" He told her softly, raising his hand to the makeshift bandage on her slim throat, traling the tip up to her cheek softly, he leant down, kissing her forehead lightly. \"I wont let him or his buzzarding companions anywhere near you or my land again\" He promised her, speaking this against her forehead softly, before brushing a strand of hair behind her ear softly, sighing, and straitening up. \"Anyway, i must smell terrible, im taking a bath\" He grinned a little, giving her wink before walking off to the kitchen to collect the hot water from the fire in there.

She smiled a bit, relaxing in the chair a bit more, sighing softly as she kept herself warm by the fire. She closed her eyes, falling half asleep, as her mind began to think to herself. She was liking being with Alexander, and Anna. It was nice to be treated higher than most slaves. Perhaps even higher than her own kind. But then, her thoughts lingered on Anna. She felt a bit concerned, since she hadn\'t talked to her, or seen much of her lately. She wondered why, as she took off the bandage around her neck, feeling where the wound was. She smiled slightly, as she felt it was gone.

Anna watched Alexander as he took the massive hot bucket of water from the kitchen up the opposite stairs, he noticed by using these he didnt have to ruin the carpet with drips of hot water... along with seeing how Anna managed through her days. He was getting a little worried about her, she hadnt spoken much, or barely at all these past few nights, and after getting the last bucket, he trodded back down, giving Anna a playful start as she prepared bread for the following day. \"Anna, your so meloncoly lately.. what is it?\" He asked her softly, leaning his hand on the counter where she kneeded dough, she simply shook her head. \"Nothing sire, just nothing to talk about, your happy, im happy. the creature is happy, whats there to discuss?\" She said a bit coldly, turning away from him, Alexander rose his eyebrows to this, backing off, he shook his head, wondering just what got into her.

Kakurine meanwhile, feeling even sleepier with the heat of the fire, had fallen into a slumber, curled up slightly in the chair. Still in the same attire as the other night, she looked actually quite comfortable. Her wings curved around, the soft glow of the fire against the feathers making them appear to be bright orange. Her recovery seemed to be done, she just felt a bit more exhausted than normal. Perhaps it was because the short amount of time between her last time being bitten.

Alexanders eyes were drooping by the time he got out of the bath, the relaxing heat and intense scrubbing he gave his tired body made him yawn loudly as he walked down the stairs into the living room, his fathers robe wrapped around him once again. He looked around, noticing that the night was fairly deep, not expecting morning for some time... he loved the darkness sometimes, other times hating it, depending on the mood he was in. Currently, it was making him rather comfortable, he walked to the fireplace, stoking the flames slightly, before turning his eyes to Kakurine... He watched for far to long, he realized, but she was asleep, and would never know.He watched the flame lick patterns on her gorgeous wings, he bit his lower lip lightly, hating and loving her innocent visage with each moment. He approached her slowly, rubbing the tips of his cold fingers over her luminesent cheek, her eyes closed softly with her little form pulled close... unfair was the only word that entered his mind.

After a few minutes, Kakurine\'s eyes slowly opened, and she looked up at Alexander. She yawned slightly, just then realising she had fallen asleep. She sat up, and looked up at him. \"Oh, I\'m sorry...I hadn\'t realised I had fallen asleep...\" She said appologeticly. Aparently, she had a hard to break habit of appologizing for any actions that most slave owners would find unappropriate. She leaned up all the way, gazing up at his face with her crimson hued eyes. She still was trying her best to keep from doing anything to cause disapproval towards him.

He turned his eyes away from her, pulling his hand back abruptly when she looked up to him, her feminine voice ringing in his ears her apology. \"Oh, no little one... you deserve to sleep, as much as you like..\" He simply mused, avoiding her eyes as he looked back to the flames, his long hair undone and falling around his cheeks, he let a sigh out. \"This isnt quite the place for you to be sleeping though... you\'ll wake up sore.\" he continued, taking the moment to lift her up into his grasps, one hand beneath her legs, the other across her back, careful of her wings. He didnt really want her walking around, still worried for her strength, he carried her up the stairs, walking toward his room.

\"I\'m fine...\" She said. \"I\'ve been in more uncomfortable situations...\" She looked back up at him again, then yawned slightly, waking up a bit more. \"Thank you...\" She suddenly said, as she gazed up at him more. \"I\'m glad you have taken me out of that market...You\'ve been more kind to me than...well, anybody...\" Kakurine was silent for the moment, still watching him. She smiled a bit, showing the sincerity of what she said. Though it was taking some time, she was begining to show more emotion each day.

He smiled a bit as she did, not expecting her to be so expressive, but glad that she was. \"I have no reason not to be kind to you... I have money, a wonderful place to live, and an easy meal whenever i desire..\" Well, that wasnt completely the truth, whenever he was exposed to that lustrous throat of hers he could feel his hunger burning inside of him. But he could resist the temptation untill she was returned to full strength, it wasnt fair to wear her out with his own bloodlust. Kicking open his door, he noticed a lantern already lit, giving the room a faint glow. \"I was hoping you wouldnt mind sleeping in here with me.. ive become quite accostomed to your warmth, and feel rather cold without you\" He said nonchalantly, but his want was powerful.. he knew she would not decline, even if she didnt want to. \"Please... tell me if you do not wish to\" He whispered softly, looking into her eyes.. knowing he could read her thoughts if she lied, and would comply to her speech.

She looked back into his eyes, seeming to think for the moment, not wanting to answer right away, though her answer was that she didn\'t mind. She quite enjoyed being around him, and didn\'t even mind the fact that she was mainly there for him to feed off of her whenever he wanted. Kakurine felt he gained her trust and admiration. \"I do not mind...\" She said. \"I like being around you...\" Her mind and words were truthful. He did however, surprise her with how he felt about her. She liked it, though.

He smiled, relived that her words were sencire, setting her down on the sheets, he smiled as he looked down to her.. wondering what it would look like if she lay beneath him... He shook the thoughts from his mind, walking to the opposite side of the bed and stripping himself of the robe, feeling no need for modesty, he was much to old for such trivial things. He did however pass her a long pesants shirt for her to sleep in, having only placed her on the sheets. \"You may change here or in your own privacy\" He told her softly, covering up his lower half of his body with the bedsheets, he propped himself up on his elbows, watching her slightly.

Kakurine changed in the room, her wings giving her plenty of coverage if her became modest. She slipped it over her figure, having a bit of troubles with her wings. When her clothing were off for the moment, the scars of whipping were shown slightly on her back, though there were not many. She soon got it on, and she sat on the bed, looking over at him. She had something to ask him, and felt a bit shy with asking. After a moment of silence, she finnaly managed to ask, \"You don\'t like me just for my blood, do you...?\"

He frowned a little onto her slight scars, wondering what horrible being could cause such harm to something so lovely and innocent. He knew she surely was not deserving of such treatment. When she asked him the sweetly naive question, he smiled, shaking his head ruefully as his hand rose to her cheek, getting her to look at him. \"How could you think such a thing... though your essence is truly wonderful, i find you appealing for many more resons than just that... your sweet innocence, kindness, willing to do things for other, never putting yourself first....\" He paused, realizing just how much he seemed to care for this beautiful little creature. \"So no, i do not like your for just your blood\" He grinned a little, only playfully mocking her.

She smiled a bit more, a slight tinge of blush appearing in her cheeks. \"You flatter me...\" She said softly, smiling still though. \"You\'re the first to ever think like that of me...\" Kakurine laid down slightly, looking at him still, with a bit of curiousity. \"But, you\'re the first I\'ve ever come to trust...and admire...\" She admitted to him softly, gazing at him for a bit more, before looking up slightly. Truely, she did admire him a lot, perhaps even more then that.

He smiled and nodded to her, his hand gently raising to her hair and stroking it behind her neat little ear, his body already wanting for her, but as with age came much resistance, and he wouldnt do to her as he had done to so many others... shame seemed to plague him for his past indescrepencies. \"Im proud to have attained your trust and admiration my little one...\" He murmured softly, kissing her forehead softly, lovingly.. he was growing much to attached to her, but it almost felt nice. His eyes connected with hers, his hand stil stroking her cheek. \"Come then... you need your sleep\" He urged her, pulling the sheets up around them, his hand reached around her small waist and pulling her into him, so her chest rested somewhat against his side, basking in her wonderous heat.

She yawned slightly, curling up a bit into him, in a comfortable position. \"Yes...of course...\" She muttered sleepily, her eyelids starting to close. \"Sleep well...\" She murmured to him, before closing her eyes, still curled into him slightly. She fell asleep rather quickly, her breathing light, making her chest press against him slightly, and gently. Kakurine relaxed, not seeming to mind about sleeping with Alexander. Infact, she was enjoying it; she did like company, since she was usually alone. She even seemed to have pleasant dreams now, instead of her usual nightmares, or dreamless sleep.

He lay awake for a little while, just watching her sleep, her small chest pressing against him as she breathed, reminding him that she was living, breathing.. not simply his plaything to watch and admire for thier beauty... he sighed, stroking his hand down her small arm, picking up her hand and kissing her fingers softly, before resting the digits against his chest, he laid his head back, closing his eyes softly, just breathing in her soft scent, her warmth, her heartbeat... he wondered if she was a virgin or not, but judging by the brutality she seemed to have recived, he thought she was probably raped numerous times.. the thought made him feel a little sick, clinging her tighter, wanting to protect her.. the final thought before drifting off into a solid sleep.

Kakurine had remained lucky with her past \'masters\'; Kakurine still remained a virgin. Her first master was male, but she used to be rather rebellious. After her first beating, however, she started to calm down, and become more solem, though by that time, he was already having a short temper with her, returning her back to the market. Her second master was a female, but she soon realised she had little use for Kakurine, since she appeared to be a rather frail child. After that time, she appeared to had gained a bad reputation, making it difficult for someone to even consider buying her. Kakurine had no thoughts on her past, though, as she slept peacefully, waking up a couple of hours after sunset, shifting slightly on the bed.

Alexander slept comfortably with her, adoring the warmth she gave him so, he had an addiction to it, each time he found it only wanting more... He sighed sightly, feeling her shift,he was still half asleep when he felt this, and let out a small growl of resistance, both his arms comming around her body and pulling her close, his head burried lightly into her chest, he of course had no idea of what he was doing, he felt back into a more solid sleep than before, having her trapped in his arms, he thought nothing of who it was, only feeling it was warm and he wanted it... his subconsious was completely vampiral, meaning that it consisted mainly of wants and simple commands and feelings.. this being one of them.

Kakurine looked at him a bit, but smiled. She didn\'t mind it, she liked being close to him. It was enjoyable to be close to someone she trusted, and she curled up a bit more, just laying there for the moment. She wasn\'t hungry yet, and she was not tired, but it felt good to be laying next to him. She breathed lightly, letting him sleep still, not wanting to wake him up. Her feathers brushed lightly at his side, as she stretched them out slightly to feel even more relaxed.

Only a short while passed, he could feel her heart beating at a more steady rate, her mind traveling though many thoughts, much to many to be sleeping. He shifted a little, letting out a groan as he woke up, having a much more comfortable sleep than he had ever had in his entire life. \"Good morning my little one...\" He murmured into her chest, before realizing what it was, he pulled his head back, shaking it a little. smirking to himself. \"Sorry.. Vampire insitinct, looking for ones heart...\" He felt his cheeks redden a little, he almost laughs, not knowing the last time he, the powerful and always cocky Alexander Davies blushed! The thought seemed purposterous and amusing at the same time. He pulled himself up a ltitle, looking rather rested but messy, he pressed his lips to her collarbone softly, before releasing her from his arms.

Kakurine blushed a bit herself, and let out a light chuckle. \"Good morning...\" She said, smiling at him, the tinge of blush fading slightly, but slowly. \"It\'s alright, though... I didn\'t mind...\" Looking at him, she still smiled a bit. \"If I did mind, I would have pushed you away...\" She laughed a small chuckle again, before stretching out slightly, and yawning softly, wings extending outward a bit. \"How did you sleep...?\" She asked, as she sat up all the way.

He smiled a little, wondering just how much she liked it. He shook is head to such impure thoughts, and was suddenly a little self concious to his nudity... why, the night before he had wanted to take her, but now he felt more like she was made of glass then ever, that even touching her might break her. A small sigh passed his lips, and he returned to his boyish cocky smile. \"Fine, much better than normal, your warmth was much appriciated\" He said softly, making a move to touch her, but not doing so, feeling a little odd inside about all of this... she shouldnt even be alive right now, she should be dead, like the rest,drained and dead and not here, in bed, with him.... and still completely untouched by his hands. What was happening to him? Was all he could ask himself, shifting to the side to pull on a long pesants shirt just to hide his nudity.

She soon slid out of bed, stretching out once more. \"I\'ll be in my room...I must find some more suitible clothing...\" She said, smiling over at him, before leaving his room, and going into hers. Once inside, she shut her door, going through some clothing, pausing for a moment. It was strange how happy she was feeling. Kakurine had never been treated so kindly, with little payment. Never had she been actually cared for. It made her smile a bit, at how Alexander had changed her entire lifestyle, not too long ago. She was happier than she had ever been before. Alexender seemed to gain more admiration from her the more time passed. She had noticed his sudden self concious, wondering what could have caused it...She started to undress, after pulling out some clothing,

He watched her walk away, his eyes glued to her body as if she were alien to him, letting his body sink down before breathing out a sigh. He couldnt take much more of this, any more change in his life and he might end up hanging from the rafters with insanity. Maybe.. maybe she wasnt totally against the idea of being with him? He couldnt even think of such a thing without feeling a little sick to his stomach, wondering just what her life had been like, getting glimpses of it, he didnt seem to see to much voilence, some slaves minds were filled with such horrible sexual torture it made his head spin that someone might have lived thought that.. he simply thought of it as putting them out of thier misery. Dressing quickly, he went into the hallway, noticing her shut door... he wasnt sure if thier was a mirror in thier or not, but was suddenly curious beyond compare, as he got into her head, leaning against the wall, looking through her eyes.

Kakurine was finishing undressing, indeed looking into a mirror. She needed to, since she still had some difficulting getting into some of her clothing. She put on her undergarmentries, before picking up her dress from the bed, looking at them for a moment, before back at the mirror infront of her. Getting into her dress was the hardest part, because of her overly large wings. After a moment of struggling, she managed to slid her wings through, so they would not be inside of the dress, now resting at her back. She sighed softly, before turning to her door, walking over to open it.

He jumped suddenly, hearing her door open, having caught little if any glimpse of her, he frowned a little, feeling like a perverted teenager. He was securely ashamed, but hid it behind his cocky smile as she opened the door, acting as if he had been waiting for her. The days were slowly getting warmer, as spring usually didnt last very long, and the days, unfortuneately, were getting longer. \"Kakurine Darling, are you feeling up to a little stroll? Ive got to collect from some tennats and wondered if you might like to come along\" He said softly to her, holding the cloak he had grabbed in his room before hand and offering it to her. His own was already strung over his shoulder, his hair tied back as it normally was, a little unshaven today as he was but still holding the upmost confidence in himself.

Kakurine smiled at him, looking rather happy at the idea. A stroll sounded very nice, and it had been a while since she had been outside. She nodded her head, and took the cloak, putting it around her. \"A stroll sounds lovely, I would love to come along...\" Kakurine looked up at him, feeling glad that she was coming along with him. Her wings curved around her slightly, acting like a second coat, just incase she would get cold.

He smiled softly, glad she accepted, he strung his own cloak around himself, pulling the hood up as he opened the door, letting her step out infront of him before shutting it. He grinned a little at the thought of being outside in the dark with her, having her feel more like his prey than ever, though it was nothing more than vampire instict to feel alive in the night, plus he was incredibly hungry, thinking he might drink from one of the livestock if they did not have sufficent means of pay. The darkness really seemed to cloak her without those illustrious wings of hers, he lead her slightly with his hand to her lower back down the twisting paths. \"I was curious darling.. not wanting to bring up any bad memories.. but, i must know, has anything... horrible happened to you in your past?\" He asked softly, knowing that as soon as the thought entered her mind, he would know, and he would not have to force her to speak of such things, but he just had to know.

Kakurine was silent for a moment, her mind suddenly recalling her past. \"I suppose I\'ve gotten away with more than I should...for a slave...\" She said, looking up at the sky slightly. \"I mean, I\'m more lucky then others...\" Something horrible...her first \'master\' flooded into her mind, since he stood out more then the other female one. \"Not long when I was taken in as a slave, I was given to a rather terrible man...\" Kakurine stared off for a moment. \"He was the one, I should say, broke me down to slave standards...I refused to do anything for him, and I had quickly...learned...that I was supposed to do as he said. He whipped me, but that was as bad as it ever got, since he became impaitent with me quickly, and returned me back to the market...\"

Alexander smiled, brushing her hair back into her hood slightly from the side. \"And Glad I am that he did\" He murmured lightly, giving her a wink and looking ahead, seeing the distant light of the first house on thier little excursion. He looked to the sky, noticing the moon was almost full... he worried about the next few nights, those wretched Lycans were common in his woods, he didnt wish to loose any more tenants. \"Im sorry for my intrusion into your privacy, i was just curious, my past slaves seemed so much more... scarred than yourself, metaphorically. Im glad you havent been marred by your past masters, it always makes them seem... colder.\" He murmured softly, mostly musing to himself, but also to what might have happened to her had she not tasted so wonderful.. he shook the thought from his mind quickly.

\"It is alright, I do not mind...\" She said, looking at him a bit. \"You\'re the only one who has ever been curious to my past, and it has not been as rough on me as others...\" She smiled slightly, gazing at him still. \"But I\'m better now where I am, I only wish the other slaves would find masters as kind as you...\" She looked at the sky then, admiring the beauty of it. She had almost forgotten what the moon had looked like, stars, clouds...Being in a cage for so long, one could forget about such a common thing. Kakurine remained silent for the moment, gazing off.

To him, this comment seemed almost ironic. Kind? Him? Anyone who had known him from before this week would have surely said differently. Maybe even laughing at such a claim. But he was, more or less, kind to her. Maybe more than he should have been? No, she was broken already, and perfectly obeyed every command. Eventually they walked in silence, the only noises being the wind in the boughs of the trees around them, the cracking of a branch here or there, and thier footsteps, his so much heavier than hers, he had to weaken his gait a little to help her keep up. He went to the door of the first house, holding his arm out to her. \"Keep behind me darling, they have a vicious mongrel and i dont want you getting bitten\" He told her softly, before banging on it a little roughly.
\"What Do you want?\" Came a voice from the door, Alexander simply smirked.
\"Oy, Richard, Payments due!\" He called over the growls of the large dog, the door opening, Lex simply glared at the beast, and it wimpered, walking off.
\"A-already Sir? \" Came a voice from the crack in the door, a terrified looking french man said. He seemed terrified, obviously he had been late for some time.
\"Your Lucky im not charging intrest on your ammount aleady due. Come on then, hurry up\" Alexander said in a gruff voice, so unlike the one he used with Kakurine. The small man nodded, walking off to the kitchen, Alexander looked back to Kakurine, smiling softly. \"Tenants\" he muttered, rollign his eyes.

She smiled back, and chuckled slightly. Doing as he said, she stayed behind him, so she would be protected. It was odd how she felt so secure around him, as if he was constantly protecting and guarding her from anything, so it seemed. Kakurine\'s wings flexed slightly, as she looked up towards the sky again. Soon she shook off her almost trance-like gaze, and smiled at Alexander again. For the moment, she was silent, random thoughts and memories occasionaly going through her head.

Eventually the man popped back to the doorway, shakily opening the door and handing Alexander a small sachel of money, he rose an eyebrow, opening it and looking inside, easily his vampiric eyes could see that he had the ammount due. \"How did you suddenly come up with the this months and last months payments?\" He asked curiously, Richard simply shrugged and winked.
\"Ive got many precarious ways sir\" He said with a grin, LEx grinned back a little, but fleetingly. Aftersaying goodbyes, he held his hand out to Kakurine, helping her down the stiars with a soft smile. \"on we go\" He murmured lightly.

Kakurine smiled at him, following after him wherever he went. \"How many more do you need to go to?\" She asked, curiousity driving her to ask. She seemed to be in a somewhat cheerful mood at the moment, glad to be outside again, no matter what the wheather was like. She realised a bit, with a longing ache, just how much she had missed being around the outside. For a moment, she remembered when she was much younger, how she would hide in the trees when people would pass, occasionally playing pranks on random travelers, but always stopping soon to give them some food, or perhaps any money she might have found on the ground. She shook her memories from her mind, for the moment, as she looked back up at him.

He prodded at the rather sweet and naive mind she had, her light body floucing down the stairs next to him, he was a little benevelent in his stature next to her, but shook his head a bit, dislonging a lock of ebony hair from the tie at the nape of his neck, he turned to her, smirking and shaking his head, rustling his fringe a bit. \"Hmm.. do you not wish to travel with me any farther my little one? Usually one only inquires about the distance if they wish to get back\" He said smugly, simply smirking at his teasings, boyish sometimes. \"Nay, i only jest. About two more, then we can get back to the warmth of the fire\" He told her soflty, wrapping his arm a ltitle more firmly about her waist in case she was cold, he didnt want her getting ill.

She laughed slightly. \"I was only curious. I like being with you, I quite enjoy being with company.\" Kakurine smiled at him, moving a bit closer to him, partially pretending that she was cold, so she had a reason to be close to him. She enjoyed it; with him next to her, she felt protected at all times, secure from anything dangerous. Kakurine generally was able to keep warm easily, especially since she had her wings to act as a coat, if she ever got too cold. But for the moment, her wings were resting neatly at her side, feathers shining in any light that seemed to catch on them.

He smirked a little, feeling her body come somewhat closer to his, he looked down to her features, admriring those big ruby orbs she had, how curiously beautiful she was...And just how hungry he was for her. He couldnt help it, being so close to the full moon, vampires tended to have a certain hightening in thier vampire nature, mostly from acient times when the battles with Lycan\'s were common, but in this day and age, it seemed superfluous, only getting young lustful and hugry vampires in trouble.. something he certainly was not. He let a breathless sigh pass his lips, leaving no vapour in the air like Kakurine, for he had no real breath.
They walked on, in silence, his always present protection of her evident... when he came upon the second house, the door planted to the floor almost, it was nothing more than a shed really, he knew the family within was poor. Knocking on the door much more lightly than before, Alexander greeted a young girl, probably about Kakurines age, she smiled and flirted her eyelashes at him, as she always did when he came, he guessed the young one had an infactuation with him, it meerly seemed amusing for a mortal to be lusting after a Vampire and not the other way round.
\"Oh! Master Davies... Wonderful evening isnt it?\" she said cheerily, playing with a lock of hair, she didnt even look to Kakurine, seeming not to notice her.
\"Fine Miss, Would you get your mother for me?\" He asked her soflty, giving a small smile.
\"allways buisness...\" He heard her grumble walking off, making him chuckle a little, he wondered if Kakurines ears heard it.

Kakurine\'s almost elfish-like ears seemed to twitch slightly. Of course she could hear well, she had always had better-than-normal hearing. Her eyes looked around slightly, taking in the sights. Unlike her hearing, her eyesight was rather normal for a mortal being, only having a slight advantage in the dark, when her crimson colored eyes would glow dimly. Once more, Kakurine remained silent, her wings wrapping around her, to give her extra heat. She didn\'t need it, but the feeling was nice.

He heard the mother call from within, he smiled softly, stepping within the porch, as she had insisted they shut the door, there were obviously enough drafts within the small house as it was. \"Ill be out in a minute\" She called again, Alexander rolled his eyes, amused, this house was always one of his favorites, always so active, the woman had 3 children, her husband killed off by wolves when he went hunting the winter previous, ever since then, Alexander had taken some pity on them, allowing them to live on his land, for a fraction of any other tenant, and every now and again bringing them down fruits, which were uncommon and pricey, especially in early months... he always had a soft spot, and obviously no use for trivial foods. He waited patiently, tucking a strand of hair behind Kakurines hood, he smiled at her almost affectionately, but a glimmer of his everconstant vampiric hunger and lust. The young girl stood on the corner, crossing her arms and leaning on the wall. \"Whos that?\" She asked in a rough voice. Alexander frowned, furrowing his eyebrows.
\"My, such a sharp tongue on one so young... but if you insist, This is Kakurine, my newest... aqusition\" He pondered the word for a moment before looking back to Kakurine.

Kakurine looked unphased from the rough voice, but she bowed her head politely, and smiled. Paitence, politeness, and obedience. Those three, at least, she had learned durring her while of being a slave. As a very young child, she was somewhat ill-tempered, mischevious, and was considered an annoyance during her time with her first master. \"Hello, a pleasure to meet you.\" She said to the girl, nodding her head slightly. Though before, she rarely ever smiled, she gave her a polite half-smile.

Alexander smirked at his little one, turning to the girl and giving her a look of \"satisfied now?\" But non chalantly, she simply huffed off, Alexander shook his head, always loving that emotional transgressions teens had. He could faintly remember his own, as long ago as it had been... he was a horrible yongster, surely putting his mother in knots of worry.. he couldnt even remember what she looked like, always imagining her in the image of the woman who was now approaching them. \"Here you go sir...\" she said softly, a stout woman, bright curly blonde hair and big blue eyes the entire family shared. He took the small offering of thier poverty, almost feeling bad for taking it, but she insited that thry pay what ltitle they had to stay on his land, after all, it was fertile, protected, warm in summer and not totally burried in snow during winter. \"And who might this be?\" She asked in a cheery voice, examining Kakurines wings and eyes as if flabbergasted. \"Kakurine.. pre introduced to your daughter.. not as happily though\" He said with a small smile, the mother rolled her eyes and The young girls bouncy curls dissapeared around the corner, eavesdropping as she was. He smiled, reciving a small hug from the woman, having to bend low for the woman, he never wasa accustomed to such... warmth, finding it nice now rather than a casualty of the buisness as he did before. He opened the door only a crack, allowing Kakurine to step out after saying goodbyes.

Kakurine stepped out, then waited for Alexander. She smiled slightly, chuckling a bit to herself. \"They seem like a nice family.\" She said, looking back at them. \'I envy them, it\'s something I never had...\' She thought to herself sadly, but in a sweet way, before turning back to Alexander. She was not in a hurry to be back at Alexander\'s home, since she quite enjoyed being outside, however, she did want to see how his last tennat was like. Her mind somewhat trailed off to about Anna, making her frown slightly to herself. Kakurine hadn\'t spoken much to her since when she helped her into her new clothes, nor had she spoken to Kakurine.

He smiled and nodded to Kakurine. \"Aye, That they are... picture family, especially those blond curls, you didnt see you two young lads, adorable they are\" He said sogtly, pulling her close to him once again. \"Hmm... Yes, I Dont remember my family much either... who knows, maybe you will have one of your own some day\" He muttered lightly, his own mind reeling through the image of her holding a child... his child. Though he had never had a want to breed anymore of his kind, he somehow had a want for her to bear his children, though he wouldnt allow it to happen, it wasnt fair to her, or to him... vampire children were horrible, biting thier own mothers just to get blood if they were hungry, like mutated little bat children... he had seen them before, and didnt want that comming to her. He sighed, walking along, the odd sensation of that thought pulling at his stomach, making him feel ill slightly, he just held her closer to him, stroking the joints of her wings slightly, the small space of flesh between her two majestic growths, he felt better with her near.

Her body returned to a very relaxed state, just as she had become the last time he and stroked her wings. \"Maybe I will...\" She said, staring off a bit, with a slight tinge of sleepiness from having been stroked. She didn\'t mind if she had her own family, or just belonged to one...a family...She always wanted a family. With Alexander, she felt somewhat as if he was her family for the moment, though a bit more then that. It was then she realised she was becoming attached to him. Kakurine let out a soft, relaxed sigh, as she laid her head against him slightly, while walking, a soft smile on her face.

He was instantly alerted to her sudden comfort, he realized his hands were stroking one of her more sensitive areas, he pulled his hand back, resting it on her hip instead, his other hand pulled up slightly, rubbing his thumb over her cheek in a fleeting stroke, as if just drawn to the sweetness of her expression. He continued this slow walk, the lights of the final tenant in the short distance comming into view. \"Last one..\" He murmured lightly, taking her up these longer rows of stairs, this tenant obviously had a little more to go around then most did... and also had slaves. This was the place he originally got the idea... and a horrible one it was, Jacob was cruel to his slaves.

She looked up at the building, returning to a more alert state now. She couldn\'t seem to help it if one was to stroke her wings, she automatically would become calm, and sleepy in some cases. Kakurine was fully awake now, with only a slight showing of relaxation in her eyes. She looked around slightly, and felt this tenant may not be quite as \'welcoming\' as the other two. She didn\'t know why she felt that way, but she didn\'t question it. Kakurine went behind Alexander slightly, not wanting to stay in much of view for this one.

He sighed slightly, banging on the door\'s large brass knocker only once, then seeing it opened by a young lass, somewhat smaller and seemingly more thin than even Kakurine, it disgusted him to think of someone having so much for himself, the least one could do if feed thier slaves, why one would even feed thier beasts to keep them from starving... but not Jacob. The tiny brunette curtseyed with what little fabric that was on her dress, seemingly torn by vicious hands, he could only imagine the torture the little one had been through. \"Would you get your master for me please?\" He asked softly, but before he could even finish his words, the was hauled roughly by the arm out of the way, a tall blond man comming to the door, looking to be in his mid twenties or so, somewhat handsome one might think, on the outside anyway. Alexander frowned, simply giving him a look before clearing his throat. \"Payments due Jacob\" He said in a gruff voice, Jacobs eyes scanned over little Kakurine with the hunger and lust only humans seemed to bare so blatantly, making alexander growl a little in warning, Even if he had no right to do so. He was protective, obviously soo, Jacob walked off, going to get his dues, while alexander quickly tossed a bright green apple to the small girl, who caught it easily, a seeming smile on her lips.... maybe he was to soft, and could get in alot of trouble for giving something to another\'s slaves... making them \"Disobedient\" They say, he couldnt help himself.

Kakurine frowned a little at the other girl\'s appearance. She knew she must have been through a lot, especially at the fact she was smaller, and skinnier than Kakurine. With a bit of distaste, a memory flickered through her mind: the first time she was caught. Kakurine remembered how rebelious she used to be. She would kick, bite, scratch, scream, throw anything within reach at anyone who dared to try and touch her. Not even when they had plucked some feathers on her wings, did she calm down. But the whip used on her back sure did the trick. After a few beatings, Kakurine lost her will to fight, and calmed down to a somewhat mute, solem looking girl. She stifled a shiver in her spine, as she looked at the girl with pity.

Alexander gave her a small squeeze into him, comforting her thoughts, he alwasy felt it when she got nervous or scared or even had a bad thought, he was easily connected into her thoughts, but usually would only prod into them when he got a bad signal from her, and the disjointed images that he did get usually only gave him a glimmer into her past, a confusing one at that. The Girl seemed somewhat baffled by a master being so kind to his slaves... he wished he could take her and all the slaves in this household out of there, but then he would be just as much of a pauper as they were... no, they were better off warm and maybe not so fed with Jacob, he could do nothing. A few moments passed, and Jacob returned, tossing Alexander a small satchel, somewhat bigger than the ones he had gotten from his other two tennants on thier little jaunt, he obviously took full advantage of Jacobs welth, so he couldnt enslave any more young girls. A sigh passed his lips, and with a nod of his head and a solomen look to thier lives he escorted Kakurine out the doorl.

Kakurine looked back at the house for a moment, before looking away, sighing a bit herself. Kakurine actually was not as well off on her own, as she was being a slave. True, she wasn\'t hurt as muched, but without any home or money of her own, she used to resort to stealing. It was simple things--bread, fruits; nothing ever more. Kakurine raised her eyes up to Alexander\'s face, and she could tell there was nothing he could do to help the slaves either. She moved a bit closer to him, to regain some comfort, relaxing herself and shaking her memories out of her head. When she came close, she laid against him slightly when they walked, and it calmed her emotions.

He smiled a bit, finding his own comfort in her grasps, the long walk home, feeling her head resting against his chest slightly, his arm wrapped around her.. it certainly wasnt fair he had to be so chaste with her, in his mind, but as he had found out through her thoughts, she was quite obviously a virgin, and he wouldnt be taking something so scacred from her without good reason, like her wanting him to do so, which he highly doubted. Looking down to her slightly, his hand rose to run through her silken sivery locks, the curious color always making him want to touch it, like a small child. They continued this small jaunt in silence for the most part, Alexander humming a tune every now and again, but it was best to not attract attention in the dark woods, he was ample protection, but still didnt wish to be put in a fix where he must be protection. He would watch her as they walked along, pulling her closer from time to time, kissing her temple, or just playing with the daintly fingers resting on her sides. She seemed to keep him warmer, and once they reached the house, he almost wished he didnt have to leave thier inimate little stroll. Opening the door, the warmth of the house flooded the chilly pair.

When she walked inside, she stayed by Alexander for a moment, before taking off the cloak around her, plenty warm now. She smiled at him, feeling completely comfortable during the stroll. \"I\'m going to take a bath, alright? I need one right now.\" She chuckled slightly, giving him a slight hug, almost cuddling, before she went off to prepare her own bath. She laid out clothing for her, setting up warm water, before she undressed and sank into it, enjoying the heat. She washed herself off, cleaning her hair and wings out, making them shine even more. When she was through, she relaxed in the water for a moment, closing her eyes slightly. She had enjoyed the stroll quite alot, even though she disapproved of the last tenant. A soft sigh left her lips.

Alexander himself had trodded off to his room, feeling suddenly exausted.. he always did around full moons, he seemed to sleep right through the whole three days, having no recolection most of the time... he had always found it odd, but paid no mind to it, he sighed and undressed, pulling on looser more comfortable phesant like clothing. Anna, the seeming recluse of the house, made her way up the stairs to the bathroom, where Kakurine she knew was bathing, it was perfect timing, alexander wouldnt come in, so she would have a moment to talk to her.
\"Kakurine\" She called lightly, shutting the door behind her. \"I Have something to tell you, but have to promise to keep a steady head about you... your going to need it\" Anna seemed worried, maybe even a little rattled, biting her fingernails as she spoke.

Kakurine looked up from her bath, her wings around her a bit, as she sat up slightly. \"What is it, Miss Anna?\" She asked, looking confused, and a bit concerned with the seemingly nervous look about her. Normally, Kakurine would not get nervous often, but Anna\'s expression and worried look seemed to have stirred a bit of uneasiness, making Kakurine tense slightly. Maybe what Anna was going to say for the moment was the reason on why she had not spoken much within the past few days? She would only find out if she\'d tell her. She waited, looking at Anna.

Anna went quickly to Kakurines side, kneeling down on the side of the tub so she could look directly at her face. \"Kakurine.. Alexander.. he..\" she paused, bitting her bottom lip a little. \"Hes Not what you think he is\" She told her softly, in a whispered, a hushed voice as if she hadnt spoken of this to anyone for some time. \"Hes a demon... only partly though.. his mother was taken by a powerful vampire demon... and to protect his family, he was given the power to.. Transform. during times when threat to his family or power was provoked. Thats the full moon... the next three nights.\" She explained all this slowly, letting it sink into Kakurine... Anna had seen it before, and he was horrible, A monster, completely run by Vampire insticnt. \"You have to stay away from him... usually he hides away in the darkness of his room during these mothly... transitions. But if he hasnt eaten in some time... He might try to hurt you, or i, or worse...\" Anna looked frightened, having witnessed this before, and not knowing if Kakurine had let him feed off her. \"Kakurine, You have to tell me.. how long has it been since hes fed off you?\"

\"He hasn\'t fed from me...since the first time...\" She said slowly. That was about a week ago, she thought to herself. \"When Wyvern bit me, I guess he felt he had to wait for me to recover...\" She looked worried. \"I\'ll try to stay away from him...Thanks for telling me...\" Now she was deeply concerned for Alexander, and Anna now. If something bad would happen....She shook her head slightly, and looked at Anna again.

Anna shook her head quickly. \"Theres no \"ill try\" about this Kakurine. He turns into a monster. literally. If hes that blood deprived, he might go to any means to get it. I want you to keep yourself in your room, only come out when completely nessicary... he wont remember any of this, which is the worst part.\" Anna sighed lightly, leaning up against the side of the tub. \"Well barracade his door, though i doubt it will hold him.. Hes never done anything more than killed a few lycans, so i think we may be alright... he wont pray on his own kind, thats who hes protecting with this abysmal mutation.\" She looked back to Kakurine. \"Im sure when he goes back to normal, hes not going to want to find you dead and no means of remembering that he did so\"

Kakurine nodded to her. \"I see...I\'ll stay within my room, then...\" She sank in her bath, slightly, ready to get out when Anna would leave the room. A soft sigh, and she absently began to clean her wings again. \'I hope nothing bad will happen...\' She thought to herself, as she paused in her cleaning. \'Good thing it\'s only three nights...\' She thought again, staring at the ceiling, before at Anna. \"Thank you for telling me...\" Kakurine said softly.

Anna smiled softly, standing up. \"Not to worry my child... you will be fine, im sure, just keep within your room, ill bring you food whenever I can, But keep your door locked unless its mee\" She said softly, smiling before exiting the room. She headed downstairs, closing all the drapes and things around, worried that Alexander might get up during the day as he sometimes did during his transformations... Anna was always worried for his well being.. it wasnt the pay or the fact she lived deecently.. she was secretly in love with Alexander, and even if she was jealous of her loves affection for the little imp, she thought it was only fair to tell her what might be in store.
Alexander on the other hand, had no ideas that this was even occuring.. he knocked softly on the bathroom door. \"Kakurine? Are you deecent yet?\" He asked in a soft voice.

\"Just a moment.\" She called to Alexander, as she finished washing off, before rising from the tub. She stepped out, drying her wings off with a quick shake, like a dog. She then cleaned up after herself, and slipped into her night gown, before opening the door, and smiling at him. \"Now I am done.\"

He watched the door open, seeing little Kakurine come out in the nightgown she had been presented with among other things when she first arrived, his eyes drawn to her legs slightly, he pulled his eyes back to her crimson orbs as best he could, clearing his throat. \"My, dont you look sweet\" He murmured softly, watchinging the light shimmer on her silvery hair. \"Would you like to join me as you did last night?\" He asked her softly, having overly enjoyed sleeping in he same bed with her, not to mention being able to feel all the warmths her body gave off... it helped his sleep and supressed some of those more urgent desires. He lifted her dainty fingers into his softly, waiting her response.

But Kakurine had remembered what Anna told her, and she looked hesitaint. In truth, she would have loved to join him again. She enjoyed sleeping in the same bed as well. But Anna had told her how Alexander might feel if when he transformed what might happen...She didn\'t know exactly when he would change, and Anna had said for the next three nights... She smiled slightly, but said, \"I would love to, but...I feel I need to sleep in my own bed...\" There was a hint of sadness in her voice, since she had really wanted to be with him.

He furrowed his brows, of course not knowing of the reason that she declined, he never remembered any of his own transformtations. He rubbed the back of her hand softly, and dejectedly kissed her knuckes softly, forcing a smile. \"Alright, If that is what you wish my little one, then I will not force you...\" He seemed obviously saddened by her choice, his own mind filled with somewhat stranger thoughts. She was his slave. He could always force her...? No, he wouldnt do it. He kissed her forehead lightly. \"Goodnight my darling, Sleep well\" He murmured, before releasing her and walking back to his own room, shutting the door behind him. He undressed quickly, crawling into the bedsheets, they seemed somewhat colder today.

She could tell she had hurt him, and was a bit stunned with the fact that she did. She frowned, and went back into her room, feeling not quite as cheerful as she had been. She wished she had chosen to sleep with him again, she loved being next to him. It was very comforting, and she had not had any nightmares when she slept with him that night. Sighing, she shut her door behind her, locking it, as Anna had told her. She then slipped into her bed, staying awake for a little while, before going to sleep, curled up.

It was of course the better choice for her to sleep alone, for alexanders transformation was rapid and brutal that day. His body writhed with pain and sweat beneath his sheets, he clenched his teeth, never remembering this part, so always frightened each full moon. His eyes changed a bright, neon blue color, the pupil as well, before his iris\'s faded to coal black, leaving his pupils the bright ice blue color, looking demonic. He gripped the sheets of the bed, in too much pain to even cry out, as giant leathery black wings errupted from his back, casting a shadow over his large bed, flexing out and up and down slightly, as if testing them.. they were massive, as could easily carry him if need be. His hair seemed to thicken and grow longer, covering his eyes slightly, stringing over his shoulders, large pointed ears poking out from under the ebony masses. He seemed to grow twice as powerful in this form... and twice as hungry, it had been days since he fed, now feeling like weeks. He growled deeply, exausted from his transformation and falling into a deep dreamless sleep for the rest of the day.

Kakurine woke up a bit early, feeling troubled through her slumber. She kept waking up, tossing and turning, leaving her with a slightly tired expression when she finnaly seemed to choose to stay awake. She sighed, brushing her hair down, as she got dressed, and sat on the edge of the bed. She was used to doing nothing, having been crammed in the slave cages for so long. Yes, it was not very entertaining, but this time, at least, she could walk around. Perhaps even practice her flying, since it had been years since she had done so. She sat on her bed, the minutes ticking by.

Alexander wasnt quite as contented as Kakurine, he felt like a caged animal, a starving one at that... Anna had been talented enough to lock his door from the outside, and it was a thick heavy door, he couldnt seem to break it, nor did his Vampiric mind want to venture into the house..all he felt was hunger, all he cared about was hunger. A grinn swepted over his lips, revealing longer, more rigid pointed fangs, the teeth nearby also gaining a canine quality. He smirked, opening the small latch that held it shut, before expanding his wings outward, they spanned to at least 8 feet in each direction at full length. He leaped, taking off into the darkness of the night, looking for something, anything to feed on, never once realizing he was the one who kept the Lycans in check.

She looked out of her window, staring off for a moment. She felt somewhat impaitent for the moment, wishing the days would end quickly. Sighing, she busied herself with cleaning her room, even though it was not dirty at all. When more time passed, she flexed her wings a bit, deciding she could give herself a lesson inside of her room. She was small enough to practice hovering, and a bit of flying around. She flapped her overly large wings, and hovered a couple feet off the ground, enjoying the sensation of feeling her body off of the ground. It was in her nature, after all.

Alexander had been gone for most of the night, only comming back as the bright full moon was reaching its pinnacle. He flapped back to the open window.. but paused. He could see a bright glimmer of something in the window next to his.. curious indeed, was alll that entered his mind, now fed and feeling a little better... but somwhat still in want. He clung to the wall next to Kakurines window, watching her hover in the air.. an angel to his eyes, versus his own demonic form. He grinned a little... he wanted in there, he wanted in.. with her. Obviously not reasoning, his lustful side seemed to take over his mind, as the latch within clicked over the lock, his mind even more powerful in this form... almost unstoppable, like a man with no fear or shame or conscience.... Dangerous. The window burst open, him kneeling on the ledge like an acient Gargoyle, smirking defiantly. \"My.. Quite the flyer you are\" He said softly, his bvoice deeper and more lustful then he has ever permitted her to hear.

Kakurine landed in shock, having almost fallen out of the air. She looked at him, eyes wide. She had not expected him to come in the room, and it worried her a lot now. \"A-Alexander?\" She stammered slightly, as she edged back towards the door, looking a bit frightend. His demonic appearance had startled her greatly, and even more so when he was so close to her. Her hand touched the lock on her door, and her fingers started to unlock it. She knew that in this room, she would not be really safe.

He had come upon her scent now, making him even more in want for her. \"Dont seem so frightened.. I wont bite\" He grinned... well, wasnt a lie, he wouldnt bite...he was planning on much worse. With a quick jump, a slight glide in the air of her room and he was almost upon her, gripping her small wrist in his hand, taking it away from the key, leaving the door locked. \"Dont you like seeing me My little one? I surely like seeing you...\" His eyes traveled over her little body unashamedly, taking in every curve of her little body, he bit his bottom lip lightly before looking back to her eyes. \"Your heart beats so rapidly..that worried?\" He continued his little barrage of questions, pining her arms over her head, his form pressed against hers slightly.

Indeed, her heart was beating furiously in her chest, as if about to leap out at any given momment. \"Y-you\'re frightening me.\" She said, hoping she would be able to get him to leave her room. She swallowed slightly, trying to slow down her heart beat, and calm down. \"A-Anna!\" She called, though she knew the door was still locked. She needed her help, in anyway possible. She didn\'t know what Alexander might do to her... \"Anna! Help!\"

He grinned, her fear only arousing him more, hearing her call for Anna, he shushed her lightly, nipping her bottom lip between his teeth slightly. \"My my, One might think you didnt want to be with me...\" He leaned closer, whispering against her neck. \"I can see into your mind my little one... Ive seen what you think... what you desire. You want me, and I know it...\" He whispered, kissing her neck lightly. He of course planned on killing her now, but still, she might as well be moaning instead of screaming... Alexanders mind was completely not his own, the sound of leather made when his flexed his wings slightly, gripping both her wrists in just one of his own large hands, the other making a course over her hip, beside himself with anumalistic lust.

She shivered a bit, looking worried. Her insides churned a bit, for what he had said was true. She had been wanting Alexander, though she never spoke, nor let her mind think of it much. But she did not want to feel lusty for this \'creature\'. If she ever did, she wanted to be with Alexander as his other self, the one she knew to be \'real\'. She swallowed slightly, and tried to call for Anna again. \"A-Anna!\" Her small body was trembling slightly with fear, but also at his hand\'s travel on her.

He snarled at her, nipping her collarbone roughly, a small dabble of blood comming from her body, he licked it off effortlessly, tasting her wantingly. He could feel her shiver under his fingertips, making him grin a little. \"Anna doesnt Care about you... Why would she, your simply my little playtoy\" He growled softly into her ear, cupping her breast softly in his hand, watching her bottom lip tremble.. there was nothing better to his sick sadistic mind then watching her quiver. \"Go on Kakurine... Let yourself enjoy it, you know you want to\" He murmured against her warm flesh, feeling her pulse rapid on his body, the absence of his own chilling his body down more in this form than before.

\"I won\'t.\" She said a bit stubbornly, having the problem of keeping herself from quivering. She did not want to gain any pleasure from the monsterous \'beast\' before her. She wanted to feel the passion from Alexander himself, not this... Kakurine\'s wings tensed, as she drew them around her, trying to break him off from touching her, this time. Her heart continued to beat at a quick rate, and she tried to jerk herself from him. \"I won\'t enjoy it, I won\'t.\" She said, shaking her head a bit.

Alexander growled deeply in his throat, watching her shining wings come around her body, he sifted his fingers through the liquid feeling of her feather, just watching her crimson eyes. \"Who are you trying to convince my little one?\" He asked softly, seeming somewhat more like himself as he watched her, but his searching icey blue pupils and gigantic wings portrayed him as far from his normal self. \"You do realize, that your are my slave. I am your master. You basically have no choice... now i can be brutal, rip you apart and make you scream in agony... or i can make you moan in lust... depends completely on you little Kakurine\" He smirked, liking this feeling of power he had over the tiny girl... but a part of him, kept poking in the back of his mind... he shook it from his thoughts roughly, but it seemed to be getting stronger.

Kakurine looked up at him, still trying to jerk, but her movements were starting to slow, eventually halting. Silence fell on her, as she looked up at him. \"Alexander, you\'ve never been like this to me...please stop...\" Her eyes gazed at him, with a bit of hopefulness lingering in her crimson optics. Her wings pressed against him, and actually seemed to flinch when they got near to his hands, as if not wishing to be consoled or comforted at the moment. \"Would you please...let me go?\" Her heart was still beating hard in her chest, but she appeared to be returning to the solem little girl he had first come to know when they first met at the market.

He frowned a bit, not liking this.. why wasnt she fighting? IT was half as much fun with her making him contemplate what he had come to do. The burning in his chest seemed to unfalter his expression, but he could feel his own reasoning fighting with animal and carnal instinct... Vampire instinct, his bloodline. He kept the simplistic expression, parting her wings, revealing her more to him, but innocently so, he did not grasp or pull at her frame, he simply kissed the spot he had nipped, before pulling back up and looking into her eyes, his hand pulled her eyes up to his. \"What is it about you?\" He seemed to question himself, before leaning down to her lips, and softly, without any alterior motives, kissing her quivering pedals. He closed his eyes slowly, hauling her quivering form closer to his, wrapping his massive wings around them both. He didnt know what it was, but he didnt wish to take out his desires on her.. it wasnt in his power to hurt her.

Kakurine moved closer to him, realising he wasn\'t as rough as before. Did she get through to him? Yes, Kakurine did have feelings for Alexander. Perhaps more than she should have, for being a slave. But she didn\'t want him to be so harsh with her, and wanted to wait at least for him to be back to normal. She was aroused slightly by him, but she had plenty of control over herself. Kakurine was starting to realise just what kind of feelings Alexander had for her, and it did surprise her slightly. She was silent for the moment, eyes still watching him, like a cautious creature who was uncertain of him being either a cruel enemy, or a beloved friend.

Alexander could sense that the sun would soon rise, he parted his lips from hers, and as much as he wanted to take her, the more human side of him wouldnt allow it... never had he obtained control over himself, especially after drinking Lycans blood. He could smell her slight arousal, but did nothing to provoke it, simply kissing her forehead tenderly, letting his wings fall from around her form. \"Lock your windows\" Was all he said, before walking to hers and walking out into the night, hovering on his wings for one last look at her.. he drifted back into his own cagelike confines.. and just in time, the sun peaked over the hirison the moment he closed his blinds. He stalked around his room... pacing it seemed, wings shifting and tense, he couldnt understand himself, growling in his throat, wanting his control back. He ddint want to hurt her ever again, and if it killed him then so be it.

Closing and locking her window, she closed the blinds, and almost collapsed on her bed. She had never been so afraid in her life. Never... She knew he would have even killed her if he hadn\'t gained control. \"Only two more nights...\" She reminded herself softly, her hands trembling as she changed out of her clothing, and went back into a nightgown. She had not eaten all day, but after that experiance, she did not feel like eating at the moment, anyway. Brushing her locks out of her face, she got into her bed, under the covers, pulling her small frame close to her. That had been so close...She knew she might have lost her viginity, and was relieved that it had not been robbed from her just yet. If she was going to lose it, she wanted to it be taken out of emotions of love, not lust. Sighing softly, she closed her eyes, drifting off into a deep, yet troublesome slumber.

As soon as the moment had been over, anna crept up the stairs, unlocking The door, as she had a skeleton key to every room, she left a tray of some fruits and other such breakfast things in her doorway, before silently shutting it again, not wanting to wake her nor Alexander... She had cried hearing Kakurine Cry out for her, Alexanders deepened demonic voice.. it had been all she could to not to try to kill him, but she knew her entering that room would have put her and kakurine in even greater danger, a Vampire interfereing with another meal, or lover, was inforgiveable and could easily result in both of thier brutal murders having alexander the way he was. A sigh passed her lips. This was horrible beyond compare. Two more days, only two.

When the day passed, and night became aparent, Kakurine roused from her sleep, stretching out a bit. She shook her head, her eyes falling on the breakfast foods near her door. Sliding from her bed, still half asleep, she walked over, and picked the tray up, crossing back over to sit down at her bed. She ate some of it, still having a loss of appitite from the night before. A sigh left her mouth when she ate her fill, sitting on her bed for the moment, peering out her window, though she had made sure it was locked. Kakurine felt caged in again, no matter how many times she would remind herself. She was used to being uncontent all the time, therefore she merely sat there, going over random thoughts in her mind.

Alexander too awoke, the lycans blood was not quite as filling as he would have liked... The night before ran through his mind over and over again. One question on his mind. \"What is it about her?\" He spoke outloud, shaking his head as he sat on his bed, flexing his wings again. he never could feel comfortable with them. If only he could control these transformations...IT wasnt fair, his family and this acursed transformation. It might have been useful in a time of monsters and a need to defend ones kind, but now it was completely superfluous, there was nothing he needed to defend, locking away the girl he had just confessed hidden feelings to in a kiss from himself. The fate were cruel... He growled, opening his window and leaping out into the night for the thrid time, searching for something to take his anxieties out on.

Kakurine watched his departure from the window, though she kept half-hidden, so he would not be tempted to come back into her room. She laid on her bed, still garbed in her bed clothing. She wouldn\'t need to go anywhere, there was no point in changing clothing for now. \"Just one more night, after this...\" She reminded herself again outloud, gazing at her ceiling. Her wings wrapped around her, as she paced back and forth in her room. Sitting on the floor, she gazed absent-mindedly at the door. Kakurine could barely wait for Alexander to be back to his normal self. She though to herself; she wouldn\'t feel much better until he was back being the person she remembered and loved...She paused her thoughts, and ran the scentence through her mind again. Loved...She admitted it to herself, she did love him. Or at least, she had a lot of affection towards him...

He had kept himself busy that night by flying over the more bustling cities nearby, he watched the mortals in the streets from atop thier buildings, the men, the women... was he so unlike them? Yes, he realized, looking to the wings that had bursted from his back some nights before, he was a monster, and could only cringe and be disgusted with his actions against Kakurine.. she would never want him, he was nothing but a bloodsucker, something to be loathed an hated... he sighed, trying to come out of this light depression he had set on himself, looking to the two lovers in the street.. he smiled a little, watching them laugh and kiss, he had picked a rose for her... Alexander frowned. Would kakurine like such a thing?

That night, her windows had opened silently, after he had watched her for sometime, only slipping his hand in to leave a single white rose on her windowsill, before he was tempted to stick around, he took off into the blackened abyss of the sky.

Kakurine had not noticed for a while, before her eyes fell on her windowsill, and onto the white rose that rested upon it. She stared at it, as if the flower was alien to her. Delicately, her fingers picked up the rose, holding onto it lightly, gazing at the white petals. Automatically, she knew that Alexander must have placed it there, and it made her smile. As time passed by, she was almost entraced with the rose, seemingly lost in it. She shook her head slightly, a small smile on her lips, as she held onto it, going back under the covers of her bed. There was only one night left, and she sighed, curled up slightly, the rose close by. She fell asleep again, wishing time would pass quicker, so she could see Alexander normal again. In her mind, she wondered if she should confess her feelings about him, but decided against it. Would he still like her if she admited her emotions towards him? That thought drifted out of her mind, as she fell asleep again.

The day seemed to flash by in alexanders mind, his last day of transformation always a fitful one. Hid vampire insticts seemed to be on haywire, he could smell everything around him, hear Kakurine in her room, See out his window to people miles away... It felt so strange, he couldnt go outside, it was to much for him. His back ached like someone had jammed hot iron in his wings, he clenched his teeth each time he moved, they were slowly deteriorating, as they did each time... not that he remembered, he would wake up the next night, and have forgotten about the whole ordeal... also what he had done to Kakurine.. at at this moment, he felt guilty enough to want to forget. Anna had come into his room as soon as night fell... she hated his detransformation almost as much as when he changed, he seemed in such prolonged pain, feverish and aching as his body returned to normal. He seemed to wimper slightly, feeling a cold cloth pressed to his forehead, Anna close by, bitting her lower lip in worry for him.

Kakurine had woken up to the sounds, her sensitive hearing able to listen in on him. She sat up from her bed, and got out, listening in, frowning. She could sense his pain...she could almost feel it for herself... Sighing heavily, she changed into more suitible clothing, and brushed her hair out. Her hand instinctivly touched the rose nearby, and brought it close to her chest. She held it to her, hoping Alexander\'s pain would not last much longer. Not knowing when it would be best to come out, she remained in her room, waiting for Anna to tell her it was all over. She kept the rose close to her, gazing out the window.

The night went on in this fashion, Alexanders random cries of pain,his wings falling appart from under him, lying in scatterings of dust over his bed sheets which anna swept off onto the ground for the time being. Hid body shrunk slightly, no longer containing the immense strength he had before, returning to his former self. Before morning light arrived, by some hours, Alexander had choked out that he wished to see Kakurine, Anna nodded softly, rising to go unlock her door.
\"Kakurine... Alexander wants to see you\" She murmured lightly, somewhat jealous, but not showing it as she left the damp cloth and water to Kakurine, Before walking do stairs, she had been up since his detransformation had started and was exausted by now. \"Good luck\" She whispered to Kakurine.

Kakurine set the rose down on her bed, obviously glad that Alexander wished to see her. She walked out of her room, and closed the door gently behind her. Her ears were currently throbbing from the sounds of his cries, and her insides were churning at the thought of how much pain he had been through. Letting out a soft sigh, relieved that it was over, she walked towards Alexander\'s room, opening the door, and stepping inside. Walking slowly over to Alexander, she soon stood by his bedside, knelt down slightly to be right beside him. \"I\'m here, Alexander...\" She told him.

\"I know my little one..\" He murmured with a small smile, his eyes looked to be a misty grey blue color with no pupils.. he was blind for the time being. His wings were completely gone, and his body had shrunk down to normal size. \"Im sorry for the way I treated you... I wont remember it tomorrow, so i thought id best say it now\" He said in a wheasy voice, his hand searching a little before finding her cheek, smiling as he felt her warmth, his finger rubbing over her soft flesh lightly. \"My actions... were a magnified version of what I really Feel Kakurine..\" He whispered the last part, seeming somewahy boyish in his presenture. \"Would you... stay with me?\" He asked her, eyes simply lowered as they were of no use to him.

Kakurine smiled, \"I forgive you...I know that you could not control yourself...but you did in the end...\" She touched his hand gently. \"Of course I\'ll stay with you...\" She moved close to him, warming him up slightly more. \"And...I know you won\'t remember...but...I have something I want to tell you, and I feel I will not have to courage to say it tomorrow...\" She held her breath slightly, thinking, \'Infact, I barely have enough courage now...\' Lightly, she laid a kiss on his cheek. \"I want you to know...at least now...I do love you, Alexander...And I hope I will have enough courage to repeat it in the future...\"

Alexanders face went a little blank, but the broke into a smile. \"I- I love you as well my Little Kakurine\" He mumbled softly, pulling her closer to him, his body sore but the knowledge had had gained giving him some strength. \"I want you Kakurine...\" He whispered into her ear once he had pulled her close to him, kissing her neck softly, closing his useless eyes. \"Tomorrow... I hope I will be brave enough to love you the way I do now.. I want to see you beneath me my angel...\" He whispered in a playfully lustful tone, not like the one of the nights before, it was tender and loving, his hands wrapped around her waist, his head burried into her neck, kissing softly, breathing in her soft scent.

She smiled a bit more at the sound of the tenderness in his voice, curling up slightly into him again. \"When you do, I\'ll come willingly...I want to be with you...\" She closed her eyes slightly, her head resting near his. \"Maybe we will both be brave enough tomorrow...\" She said softly, as her chest once more was pressed lightly against his, her breathing falling steady in sleep, as she drifted off. Slowly breathing, her small body curled into his, she rested, comforted now that she was beside him again.

Alexander curled his fingers into her silken locks, wishing he could watch her face as she slept.. it was desperately unfair to him at this moment, but he was also exausted... he prayed that tomorrow he might remember something of these past three days... but he knew he would not, sighing a little, he forced himself to close his eyes, sleeping almost the moment his eyes closed, fatique taking him. He slept almost late into the night, only awaking as he heard the clang of something metal that Anna had dropped downstairs. He opened his eyes, streching a little, feeling somewhat oddly warm, but he shrugged it off as nothing.

Kakurine was still snuggled close, her ears twitching to the sound, though she had not awoken from it. Her light breathing still caused her chest to press against him occasionally. A light, sleepy moan escaped her mouth, as she curled up a bit more, before noticing the shift of Alexander. She awoke then, her wings extending outwards slightly, a soft yawn leaving her. She opened her eyes, sleepily blinking at Alexander, before her vision came into focus, and she leaned up slightly from the bed.

He rose his eyebrows, seeing her snuggled so closely to him under his sheets, he smirked, watching her wake. \"So, decided to come sleep with me anyway hmm? I dont know why you refused in the first place\" He said, yawning slightly, he watched her wings curl outward as she streched cutely. \"Sleep well?\" She asked non chalantly, only remembering the night before the last three, when she had refused to sleep with him. He noticed he was somewhat dressed, furrowing his brows, remembering sleeping i the nude.. things were sure strange today, he thought to himself

She wanted to tell him that it was for his and her wellbeing, but she kept silent. \"I was lonely.\" She said softly, as she stretched out, yawning a bit. \"Yes, I slept rather well. What about you, did you sleep alright?\" She asked, looking up at him and smiling slightly. She wanted to tell him her feelings again, and tried to build up courage to do so, but her courage failed for the moment, leaving her confession unmentioned. She would try later, she decided, as she sat up completely, watching him.

He furrowed his brows again, but nodded, wondering why she was acting so strangely. She looked slightly gaunt, He touched her cheek lightly. \"Darling, you look like you havent been eating! Come, well get you something\" He said with a smile, pulling himself out of the sheets. he noticed dust on the ground, along with one if his shirts torn, he had no idea what hand gone on... simply picking up another shirt and pulling it over his shoulders, cringing a little. \"I must have slept in an odd position, My whole body aches\" He murmured lightly, to her and slightly to himself, this morning seemed so strange. \"Come then little one, your going away to nothing\" He said with a smirk as he opened his door, the scent of ham and eggs and other such things already reaching his nose.

Kakurine laughed slightly, as she got out of bed, walking over to him. \'I\'ll tell him after breakfast...\' She thought to herself, deciding on it then. It was true, she had barely eaten over the past three nights, only eating on the second night, but even then it was a very small ammount. She had been worried about Alexander through the days, as she walked by him. \"Alexander...\" She murmured to him. \"I have something...I want to tell you...\" She looked at him. \"After breakfast, I want to tell you something...\"

He rose his eyebrow slightly, but nodded. \"Of course my little one, you can tell me anything\" He said non chalantly, wondering just what was going through her head, he wouldnt allow himself to go poking around into her mind, she obviously thought whatever it was to be very important. \"Hmm.. Eat as much as you can will you? You seem so malnourished, guests are going to think im worse than Jacob\" He teased her lightly, kissing her temple before shooing her into the kitchen, he took a seat in the living room, it was desperately cold here today, he seemed to think so anyway, and even with summer approaching as quickly as it was. He stoked the fire, adding a log to thier central heat before taking a seat, easing his tired bones. \"I must be getting old\" He grinned a little at the thought.

Kakurine walked out into the kitchen, trying to gather up her courage, feeling it rise and drop on occasions. She seated herself, eating the food set infront of her, barely able to pay attention to it. Her mind was going through what she should say, though she felt that she was going to faint on the spot if she tried to tell him this time. She knew now, that he would remember it, instead of last time... She could say it then, she would surely be able to now, right? When she finished as much as her stomach would allow, she went back towards him, a slight tinge of blush hanging in her cheeks. \"Can we...go upstairs for me to tell you...? Please...?\" She requested, feeling embarassed with low confidence.

He smiled a little and nodded, pulling himself up from the chair and walking slowly with her. \"You seem so distraught my little one... what is it thats bothering you?\" He requested once they entered the dark room, he walked to the fire as he spoke, stoking the fire there as well, the room as large and felt a litle chilly at time. It roared to life, casting shadows of the walls, he looked to Kakurine, thinking how serene she looked with the firelight on her wings and visage... he hated being alone with her at times, feeling restrained. He walked back to her, looking down to her eyes. \"What is it you wanted to tell me then?\"

The extra light almost made her cheeks glow in nervousment. She held her breath again, like last time, taking a minute to pull together enough courage to speak. \"Alexander...\" She said softly, letting her breath out. \"I\'ve...I\'ve wanted to tell you this...I\'ve been...worried what you might think...\" Her hands twisted together slightly, in her nervous state. She held her breath again, her cheeks turning a bit brighter. \"I-I...Alexander, I...I love you...\" She finnaly admitted to him softly, looking up slightly, with her cheeks still bright in embarassment. She prayed he would express himself like the other night, and hoped that his feelings had not changed during her confession.

His eyes seemed to widen a little. \"Love?\" He repeated to himself, trying to wrap his mind around this concept. \"Kakurine... You dont know how much Ive wanted to hear you say that..\" IT was true, he had dreamed about her confessing such feelings.. but He was a Vampire, and in theroy, Vampires couldnt love... he couldnt speak. \"I.. care so much for you my little one... To know you feel the same..\" His chest seemed to tighten a little, a strange burning feeling that made his want for her grow. was this love? He had not felt anything like it before. He simply slipped his arms around her waist, pulling her small form closer to his. \"My angel..\" He murmured softly, lifting his hand to brush over her cheek soflty, watching her lovely innocent expression.

She wrapped her arms around him, close to him, looking happy that he still had the same feelings, and that she had gained courage to tell him. She rested her head on his chest, for the moment, in a sort of sweet bliss. She had never loved anyone before, at least to her knowledge. It was a wonderful feeling to her, making her feel warmer inside, and joyful. \"I am glad...I am glad you care too...\" She said, her head still resting on his chest, her heart beating quickly again, but no longer out of fear. Once more, arousal rose up inside of her, making her smile a bit at him, as her eyes gazed up at his face.

He smirked a little, sensing her heart beat quicken, but to a different pace... he could smell her arousal, it was almost sickly sweet and vinigary, it drove him simply wild as soon as it reached his nostrils. Within an instant, he had picked her up into his arms, bridal style, carrying her off to his bed, He looked intent, his eyes bearing lust and affection for her. \"My little angel... are you sure about this?\" He asked her softly, laying her down on his sheets, which Anna seemed to have changed from the dusty ones of before, leaving black crisp sheets behind. He knelt above her, she looked so tiny beneath him... his heart seemed to be weighed down with his love for her, brushing her hair out of her face as he lay with her on the bed.

She nodded her head, her hand reaching over, brushing his hair out of his face, as he had done to her. \"Yes...Yes, I am sure...\" She said, her heart still beating quickly. She leaned towards him, her face close to his. Then, she kissed him gently on the lips, which brought her arousal to greater heights. She had wanted to kiss him for some time, and she looked at him, smiling at him, her own eyes showing her affection and love for him. She was glad she had confessed to him. She felt happy, energized, excited...

He kissed her back softly, a growling in his throat betraying his profound lust for her, gripping at her waist lightly as he pulled himself above her, stradling her form beneath him, he took her hands softly in his, kissing the palms and then placing them above her head, he kissed his way softly down each arm, relishing in the softness of her skin, feeling her heart beating against his chest... it was the most incredible feeling he could ever imagine. Slowly he pressed his lips along her jawline, his eyes looking up to her, leaning directly over her lips he smirked. \"Your incredible my little angel... I will try and make this as wonderful for you as i possibly can\" He murmured, before pressing his lips down on hers, pecking them softly.

She kissed him back with a longing feeling in the pressure of her lips, her heart still quickly hammering against her chest. \"I know you will...\" She murmured lightly against his lips, before pressing her lips to his again in a soft kiss, which awakend desire in her of which she had never felt before. Her breathing had quickend, a smile still on her face. Lovingly, Kakurine\'s eyes gazed up into his, enjoying this feeling she was recieving from just being close to him. \"I know this will be wonderful...\" She murmured again to him.

He smiled softly, watching her breathing speed in and out of her lungs, his own body pressed so closely to her... making his own arousal rather evident, he made no move to hide her effect on him. \"Kakurine..\" He mumbled softly, giving her lips one more innocent peck, before kissing slowly down her throat... he loved the feeling of her pulse against his lips, making him crave for her all the more. He looked down, noticing how underdressed she was, simply wearing nothing but her nightgown, Convenient... he thought with a devilish smirk. Slinking his body somewhat lower, he slowly edged her nightgown up her thighs, he smiled, feeling slightly more aroused when he pulled the nightgown over her midsection, he looked up to her with a grin when she was slowly exposed to him. \"Your so beautiful my angel..\" He murmured to her softly, kissing her stomach softly before he slowly pulled it over her head, leaving her exquisitely bare beneath him, he could feel himself growing more aroused by the second, this evident and pushing against his pants.

A soft moan left her mouth when he kissed her stomach, making her skin almost burn with new desire. She felt as if he was teasing her by how slow he was going, and she loved it, for it made her crave and lust for him even more. She could feel his arousal growing to, and it made her smile at how she excited him, as he was exciting her. Every place where Alexander had kissed, had made her feel as if her blood heated up in that spot. Kakurine said softly, \"Alexander...\" her want for him dripping in her tone.

He grinned a little wider, growling lustfully against her stomach, he kissed softly up her chest, eyeing her small but perky breasts wantingly. \"Mine...\" He murmured playfully, kissing the tender skin between her breasts, his hand comming down to circle around one of them, he tweaked the little mamary with his thumb, the other being nipped and licked softly in his mouth... Her skin tasted devine, and with his free hand, he undid his pants, as his hardened self was pressing painfully against them, he kicked them off quickly, never letting his attentions leave her for a second.

His play against her breasts was making her moan lustily at him, her hands reaching up, and caressing him gently. Her fingers stroked him gently, sliding down low, before going back up, massaging every so lightly... The pleasure she was feeling was incredible. It was so fufilling, but she knew there was much more that could be felt. She wanted to reach the point where it felt almost unbearable. Kakurine moved her hands to his, grasping them lightly, guiding them a bit, as she smiled at him.

His eyes seemed to watch her curiously, this little virgin, guiding his hands? He smiled, wondering what else she might have up her sleeve... His hands followed hers, letting her work herself against his hands, he kissed her softly, then pulling himself down somewhat lower again. Kissing down her stomach, he reached her soft mat of curls, kissing the top of it lightly before dragging his hands out from under hers, he parted her thighs slowly, rubbing his hands over the soft skin on the interior of her toned little legs. he watched her as her legs parted slowly, making his breath catch in his throat, he smirked a little. \"My sweet little virgin..\" He teased her lovingly, letting his hand trickle over the lips of her intimacy softly.

As he touched her there, she wirthered underneathe him in wonderful pleasure, letting out a couple of gasps and moans at the unknowing feeling she had gotten. \"Alexander...\" She moaned slightly, her eyes looking at his face lustily. A slight thought went through her mind. She hoped she could please him, as he was pleasing her. Kakurine had the slight fear of him deciding that he didn\'t like her afterall, therefore, she wanted to make him happy.

The most pleasureable thing he could see was watching her writhe and twist under his touch, he parted his lips to accomadate his labored breathing, her little mouth parted in lust making him twitch and throb with want. \"My, ive barely even touched you.. i wonder what you will be like once i really get going?\" He asked her innocently, even though is words bore little innocence in them. He smirked wickedly, seeing, parting those gorgeous lips he found between her legs, revealing her glistening self to him, he bit his bottom lip, watching her breathing, before laying her legs on either side of him, parted completely to accomodate his shoulders as he burried his lips against her wetness, parting her with his tongue and wriggling it against her little nub quickly, her flavor seemed to have the effect of liquid cocaine on his mind... making his heart race, his breathing increase rapidly, his head seemed to spin with lust.

Kakurine let out a somewhat loud gasp, her fingers touching his hair, curling around it slightly. She moaned, her head turning from side to side, feeling a fire building up inside of her. Kakurine moaned out his name a couple of times, in great pleasure, her head still rolling from each side, her breathing starting to come in pants. She almost could not believe the feeling inside of her, her body feeling hot, and her insides calling in lust for him. Her own head felt as if it was spinning, as she moaned again, eyes closed slightly.

He grinned, pulling back slightly, licking his lips of her flavor... her fluids tasted even more devine than her blood, sending him over the edge, making him want her even more, hearing her calling his name over and over was drving him crazy for her. Slowly, he edged one of his fingers within her, moistening it slowly as he pulled it in and out, feeling the soft membrane of her virginity, he was careful of it, massaging her innerwalls with his fingers. He edged one more within, feeling her virgin tighness around the two digits, making him smirk a little, but also worry.. she was so tiny... and he, well, was surely not so, he bit his bottom lip, continuing to lubricate her over so thier union would be more pleasureable than painful for his love.

She lightly cried out in lust, her body almost twisting at his touch, her panting growing louder, and quicker as he continued his movements, arousing her more with longing desire towards him. \"Alexander...\" She said softly, her hands caressing his shoulders gently. She couldn\'t help but to call for him softly. It was if his name was the only word in her mind for the moment, as her blood felt hot, her breathing gradually speeding up even more, the pleasure almost becoming unbearable by the intensity she was feeling.

He loved to hear his name pour over her parted lips, watching her back arch, her wings shift with her body in lust, making him so much more wild for her. He had managed to work three fingers within her, not thinking he could stretch her any furthur with his fingers.. he slowly lifted her legs onto his thighs as he knelt. \"This is going to hurt a little my love.. but i promise it will fade\" He reassured her, kissing her lips softly as he parted her intimacy\'s lips, edging his tip against it softly... god she was so desperately tight, he had just managed to get the head within her, gasping at the feeling of her around him, it wass exquiste. \"Kakurine..\" He moaned softly, clenching his teeth slightly as he surged slowly in her.

Kakurine could feel him hitting the barrier of her virginity. She knew she would hurt for a moment, so she held her breath slightly, waiting for it to come. When he broke it, she gasped loudly at the sudden pain, somewhat unexpected, even though she knew it was going to come. Her fingers arched, gripping his shoulders, her wings twitching slightly. After a minute or so, she seemed to feel the pain go away, and felt the pleasure returning, her wings starting to sag a bit to the good feeling once again. Her fingers loosend, yet remained upon his shoulders.

He felt it break, the hot feeling of her blood on his length making him close his eyes slightly, trying to contain himself, she was fitfully tight around him, he moaned out once he was completely within her soft folds, warm and wet and perfect. \"I love you so..\" He whispered softly, burrying his head into the crook of her shoulder and neck, breathing heavily as he began the slow, paced movements in and out of her, each time having to contain a moan of pleasure as her body seemed to fit so perfectly with his. \"Christ.. Kakurine\" He breathed out, quickening his pace slightly, feeling his abdomen clench with the familiar feeling.

\"I love you...Alexander...\" Kakurine moaned out, her hands holding onto his arms, herself starting to breath rather heavily. Her muscles were begining to tense, with a feeling she had never felt before. \"Alexander...\" She gasped out breathlessly, arching her back slightly in lust, her wings stretching out a bit. She was feeling wonderful with Alexander, the fire inside of her roaring, and growing as his movements sped up. Her head moved from side to side lightly again, murmuring words that barely had any meaning to them now, seeming lost in her lust, as she could feel herself reaching the peak of her pleasure.

His body pounded against hers, feeling her body jostle lightly as he did so, he pressed his chest against hers softly, his hand gripping her head, holding it closely to his as he slipped his arm around her arched back, pulling her more closely to him. \"Kakurine!\" He called out finally, feeling himself climax within her, his voice juddering in a moan as he did so. He continued to thrust inside her body, his form not going limp just yet, he wanted her to climax with him, wanting her first time to be memorable, his love for her seemed to grow with this night, she was his forever.

\"A-Alexander!\" She cried out, her arms wrapping around him tightly, as her body arched even more in her climax, making her let out one last moan, a bit loud, right in his ear. Her body racked in the sweet tremors of the aftermath, her breathing in pants for the moment, slowly starting to go back to normal breathing. Kakurine felt wonderful...The pleasure was intense, and her mind replayed the sweet memory over and over again...she would never forget it. She was still trying to slow her breath down a bit more, gazing up at Alexander, with a loving look stronger than when they had started.

He slowly felt his own breathing calm, he pulled out of her slowly, before rolling over next to her, letting out a breath. \"Kakurine.. you are so incredible my little one\" He whispered softly to her, turning on his side to look at her, the sweet expression she bore making him smile. He felt exausted.. holding himself off had been more fatuqing than he would have thought. His arms wrapped around her, pulling her closely to him as he felt his eyes closing slowly. \"Sleep now my love..\" He urged her softly, himself almost there.

She leaned towards him, exhausted as well after that. She kissed his lips gently, her own eyelids drooping. \"Good night, love...\" She whispered to him softly, curling into him, with her wings drooping neatly at her sides. She closed her eyes, letting out a content sigh, she fell into an easy slumber, satisfied and cheerful. Her hand rested against his chest, as she slept pleasently, snuggling up against him. Kakurine\'s last thoughts before she fell asleep, was what they would do tomorrow...

The early evening hours were spent sleeping, as Alexander refused to reliquish his comfortable spot next to Kakurine, having her snuggled against him was like a dream come true... He felt a little guilty for taking her virginity, but somehow this time, he felt as if it were righteous, for he could easily admit that he loved her.... Hmm, the words sounded so forien. Love? He was still partly convinced than Vampires couldnt love... that they were simply creatures of carnage and lust... thats what the books told of them, but with little Kakurine laying there so innocently in his arms, breathing softly in her sleep... he knew what he felt could neither be lust nor hunger. A smile crept to his lips as he softly stroked the curve of her back with his hands, just watching her little parted lips as she breathed.

She woke up a slightly later than when Alexander had, opening her crimson colored eyes to gaze at him. When her vision came into focus, she smiled, and kissed his cheek lightly. \"How did you sleep, love?\" She asked, as she stretched out slightly, her wings extending outward, before relaxing at her sides. She had never had a better sleep. Kakurine was happy, and well content, as she looked at Alexander. Smiling gently, she brushed some of Alexander\'s hair out of his face.

He smiled softly, giving her a boyish wink. \"Wonderfully.. you wore me out\" He teased her, kissing her softly, liking the taste of morning on her lips. His hand softly stroked her thigh, a smile plastered on his face when ever he was with her. \"Are you sore my darling?\" He asked worriedly, softly rubbing her lower abdomen, he had streatched her substantially last night, and hoped that it wasnt a prolonged aching. He ginned a little, kissing her collarbone and throat lovingly, letting his hand crawl over her stomach softly.

\"I am only a little.\" She told him, smiling when his hand traveled on her body. \"But I know it was pass soon.\" Kakurine almost seemed to cuddle with him, kissing his chest lightly, before his chin, then lips. Pain never seemed to bother Kakurine so much; she was used to it, what with being whipped, and beaten when she was younger. \"I am glad you slept well. I had as well, I have never slept so soundly before.\" She said, as her fingers laid on his chest again.

He grinned a little, pulling himself up over her and staring down on her beautiful form. \"Oh? Seems I tired you out as well..\" He teased her, kissing her lips softly, fleeting over the smooth pedals again and again, like a honey bee dipping into a flower. \"Though, that sleep seems to have reguvinated me..\" He continued his little game, kissing down her throat and onto her collarbones, over her shoulders as if just wishing to taste every part of her. \"Hmm.. what to do with my little Kakurine now...\" He murmured against the top of her breasts, letting his hands rub over her ribs in the lightest fashion.

Kakurine let out a soft moan, smiling up at him. \"You tease me so much.\" She pretended to scold him lightly, tracing her finger over his chest with a feather-light touch. Her wings smoothed out beneathe her, stretching out slightly to a comfortable length. Her finger continued to trace around his chest, before moving up to his neck. A smile appear on her lips, as she raised her finger up, and traced his mouth gently, before letting her hand fall back down to his chest.

He watched her dainty finger trace lightly over his body, making him grin a little, he nipped at her hand as she gluided ove his lips, the innocent and teasing action only making him want her more. \"Hmm, We are rather dirty are we not?\" He said with a smile, noticing her blood on the sheets from her swansong, along with being covered in the light sweat from thier lovemaking, he felt unkempt. \"Would you join me my little one?\" He asked curiously, while slipping off her body to wrap a robe around himself, opening the door to go get some hot water.

She smiled, sliding off of the bed, wrapping her wings around her for the moment. \"If you want me to.\" She said, looking back at him. She let out a happy sigh. Kakurine felt so content, yet so in want, enjoying being with Alexander. She wondered just how long it had been since she had been brought to Alexander\'s house, and realised it had not been so long after all. A small smile appeared on her lips, as she looked after Alexander, her wings still around her for the time being.

He walked down the stairs, picking up the large bucket that always sat next to the fire filled with hot water, be dumped it into the tub, along with a few buckets of cold as not to scald either of them. With a boyish grin, he walked into his room, picking her up into his arms and carrying her too the bathroom. \"Here we are... and you dont even need to undress\" He teased her playfully, before stripping himself off, he eyed her with a grin, having not gotten a very good look over her last night... she was still rather thin, but not as much as she was when she first arrived... he walked behind her, wrapping his arms around her frame.

She laughed gently. \"No, all I have to do is move my wings.\" She said, smiling up at him. Kakurine had a rather pale body, since she was out of sunlight for a lot of years. On her back, the thin white scars still shown, though not too noticable, especially at a distance. She touched the water gently with her fingers, feeling the tempreture set. Kakurine kissed him on his chin, as her wings unwrapped comepletely from around her. \"You are such a teaser.\" She said playfully.

He watched her wings come out from around her frame, he bit his bottom lip slightly, watching her slip into the water of the tub. \"And you call me a teaser?\" He mocked her playfully, kissing the top of her head before getting in behind her, a smile on his lips. He sighed, feeling the kinks of the night come out of his body, the relax comming as the steam rose around them. He kissed her shoulder softly, watching her pale flesh ripple in the light current thier bodies made in the small pool of water.

Kakurine sat close to him, her feathery wings pressed against his skin, laughing softly. \"Let\'s call it my way of repaying you for teasing me.\" She said, her fingers tracing over his chest again, before she washed her wings out slightly. Her hands ran through her hair a bit, as she soon dropped her arms down, smiling at him. \"I am glad you took me from that market.\" She suddenly said, watching him.\"I\'ve never been so happy in my life.\" Her finger began to trace around his chest once more, soon circling around his shoulders.

His grin seemed to widen at her words. \"Im glad I took you as well... you looked like a caged dove my little one, i couldnt leave you there for some unsuspecting fool to do horrible things to you... now I get to do horribly wonderful things to you\" He teased her, Nestling his arm around her as she ran her fingers down his chest, making him shiver ironically in the cold water. \"I just wonder what would have happened to my little dove had I not come that day..\" He mused thoughtfully, running his hand through her shimmering silver locks, he caressed her cheek lightly with the side of his hand, Vampires always had a way of looking at the darker side of things.

\"Who knows...\" She said, thoughtfully looking up at him, before at the water. \"I might have been taken by someone cruel. Perhaps someone else nice. I might have been stuck there for the rest of my life, or until they decided not to feed me once a week anymore...\" She stared at the water still, before back up at him, smiling. \"But I am glad that I was taken by you.\" Her finger ran across his mouth, stopping there for a slight moment. \"And I wonder how you would have been if I hadn\'t been brought here.\" She said, her eyes gazing at his face.

Alexander pulled her closer to him somewhat, sighing and closing his eyes a little. He knew what way he would have been, the same way he was before she came.. cruel, lustful and muderous. He closed his eyes a little, feeling somewhat guilty for the things he had done in the past. \"Dont worry my love, ill never send you back to that horrible place\" He told her softly, lifting her chin by the tips of his fingers and kissing her softly.

She kissed him back gently. \"For that, I am relieved...\" She murmured softly against his mouth. \"Now, I could not bear to be taken from you...I love you so much...\" She lingered at his lips for the moment, before kissing his chin lightly. \"I enjoy being around you, a lot... You\'re the only one who I have had feelings of love for...At least, on my memory...\" She looked up at him, and smiled, sighing softly as she laid her head on his chest, just then noticing how long they had been in the water, for it was starting to get cool.

He had not noticed the chill in the water, only noticing her head as she leaned against him, he stroking her hair, just loving to have her close. He could feel her skin start to goosebump under his hands, and guessed that the water must to cold to her lovely flesh. \"I love you as well my sweet little dove, And ill protect you and love you forever\" He murmured lightly against her flesh, kissing her cheek softly, clinging to her for a moment longher before starting to pull himself up. \"Come on, well dry off infront of the fire\" He offered lightly, he pulled himself out, wrapping a towel around his lower half, and holding out one for her.

Kakurine rose from the rub, and stepped out, taking the towel from him and drying herself off. \"Thank you.\" She smiled at him. Shaking her wings lightly, to dry them off, she blushed when she noticed she got him slightly wet. \"Oh, sorry...\" She said, as she dried herself off, and wrapped the towel around her body. Her wings curved around her, giving her extra heat from the chill of the water. \" Smiling up at him, Kakurine took his arm gently into her hands.

He grinned a little, feeling the water splash onto his chest, he imply used the end of the towel and whiped it off. \"Not to worry\" He murmured, cupping her hand than laid on his arm with the opposite hand, before opening the door and leading her down the stairs. The fire was burning much more brightly tonight, as the winter shipment of wood seemed to come to him, it was nice having the tenants children to do such medial tasks, for a price of course. He smiled, seating himself infront of the flame, he patted the ground next to him slightly, looking up to her crimson eyes as white hot flames danced on her optics.

Smiling softly, she seated herself next to Alexander, sitting close to him with her knees pulled up, one wing wrapping around him to off him some of her heat. She laid her head gently onto his arm, breathing out a content sigh, as the warmth of the fire washed over her. The light danced on her wings and hair, making them appear to be made from pure silver, though that was far from being true. Kakurine snuggled up comfortably next to him, enjoying the protective feeling she got while near him.

He couldnt resist a small smirk comming to his lips when she sat next to him, snuggling up so closely to him as if she had been on his arm her entire life. He growlled a little in his throat, as he always did just to get her attention, or to imply something more passionate to her. \"You look exquisite in the firelight my little angel\" He whispered to her in the softest voice, still belied with his deep rumbling in his chest, his hand stroking her wings softly, ocassionally brushing her hair off her face.

Kakurine let out a soft sigh at the stroking of her wings, her body becoming relaxed next to him. \"Thank you.\" She said, smiling up at him. She chuckled slightly, as if suddenly sleepy. \"If you keep stroking me like that...\" She said softly, \"you\'ll put me to sleep...\" She made no move to stop it, however, enjoying the feeling of his fingers going through the silvery feathers. Moving her hand slowly to his, she grasped it slightly, her fingers rubbing against his gently.

He chuckled lightly, feeling her delicate hands caress his masculine and much rougher ones, smiling down to her in the most loving way. Another intimate growl came from his throat. \"Put you to sleep? Oh no, thats the last thing I plan to do...\" He grinned defiantly, leaning into her throat softly, planting gentle kisses along the swanlike structure, his hands releasing from hers to tug on her towel slightly, not roughly, just playfully, almost boyish in his composition.

Her throat vibrated in another soft chuckle, her towel sliding down slightly when he tugged. \"I see.\" She said softly,turning her head slightly to kiss him gently on his forehead, down to his lips softly. She smiled, and looked at him, her hands careesing his shoulders gently, her fingers almost seeming to massage against him. \"So then...\" She murmured softly, her lips against his flesh gently. \"What is the first thing you plan to do...?\" She asked curiously.

He kissed her back softly, playing with her soft pedals against his, nipping against her bottom lip before pulling back, raising an eyebrow to her question, before smirking, pulling her towel away completely, he nuzzled his nose and lips into the crook of her shoulder, smelling the sweetness od her freshly washed skin, the softness incredible against the grain of his slight stubble. \"Well...\" He murmurmed against her skin, taking her hands into his and using his chest to push her down against the soft plush of the carpet bellow them. He leaned above her, dominant in his picture esque look and cocky grin. \"I Think i like to hear your cries of pleasure echo against the high ceiling of this very room\" He whispered to her devilishly, nipping the skin on her collarbone softly.

The firelight gave her skin a pale orange look, glowing softly. Kakurine let out a soft moan, kissing him gently once more. A smile curled on her lips when she pulled back, looking up at him. Her hands reached up, and massaged him again, slowly sliding down his chest, to his abdomen, stopping at the softness of the towl wrapped around his lower form. She kissed him again, one hand gently grasping the towel. \"Would you like for me to help you...?\" She asked him.

He pulled his lips back from hers softly, looking down to where her hands had fallen. \"Helping me? Or helping you?\" He teased her softly, kissing her lips once again softly, but he nodded. \"Yes, do what you wish to me, Im as much yours as you are mine\" He murmurmed softy, his hands trailing up her arms softly, ticking softly over her shoulders and upperchest, he softly trailed the very tips of his fingers over her small breasts whisperingly, continuing on down her form, softly over her thighs where he took her long and lovely legs into his arms, pulling her down the carpet softly, getting her somewhat closer to him.

Another soft moan, and she slowly, almost teasingly, pulled the towel off from around him, laying it close to hers. Her fingers stroked his lower back gently, before slowly going up, and back to his chest, tracing his muscles lightly. \"I believe this is help for both of us...\" She murmured lightly, smiling up at him, as she leaned up slightly to kiss him again, giving quick, soft pecks on his cheeks, lips, and forehead. Her fingers lingered at his abdomen again, rubbing there gently.

He purred softly, playfully nipping at her lips as they kissed around his face, finally catching them in his kiss, pressing her back down against the soft carpet. He could feel her hands running over his abdomen, making him wimper slightly in lust as his muscles pulled away from her touch, but his voice and actions calling for more. \"Kakurine..\" He mumbled softly over her lips, pulling away from them slowly, kissing a small path down her petite frame.

\"Alexander...\" She murmured softly to him in a moan, her blood seeming to heat up again. Her fingers continued to massage slowly, staying at his abdomen...for the moment...Her fingers were almost moving agonizingly slowly down lower, tracing around lightly, before massaging again, continueing in their destination. Kakurine still let out soft moans, her breathing starting to pick up the pace in lust, as she gazed up at him, her wings spread out into a comfortable position.

He let out his own soft groans, feeling her hands tease over his body, with disasterous playings on his composition... \"Your going to regret that\" He teased back, smirking wickedly while he pulled lower, spreading her legs a bit roughly.. though doing nothing more, simply watching her become aroused by his actions, in turn making his breathing increase in gutso. He pulled himself up over her slightly, pinning her against the floor beneath. \"Who would have thought you to have such confidence? \" He muttered with a grin.

Kakurine moaned slightly, but smiled at him. \"Remember...\" She murmured slightly. \"I was not always a slave...You seem to have restored my confidence...\" She smiled slightly, as she kissed him, her breathing speeding up even more in lust, his movements arousing her again. \"Alexander...\" She murmured softly, gazing up at him, smiling at him, her eyes showing lust and love again. \"Alexander, I love you so much...\" Kakurine told him.

\"I love you as well my wonderful little angel..\" He murmured softly against her flesh, kissing along her smooth throat once again, having become accostomed to the heat and blood that pulsed under her creamy flesh, awakening his bloodlust along with his sexual lust, his heart simply beaming with the beauty and perfection of the sweet creature beneath him. Laying bare with her infront of the firelight made his skin tingle, with her heat was well as the flames, he dove his tongue into her navel playfully as he stroked along her thighs, loving all the scents that arose from her body, each one more enticing than the next.

Kakurine let out another soft moan, reaching to him and stroking his back gently. She loved his movements against her, making her crave and desire him more. Her hands careesed him lightly, over his back and down to his abdomen again. She felt it only right that if he teased her, she should tease back. Her blood felt hot, as if the fire within the fireplace was inside of her, coursing through her veins, arousing her greatly. She kissed him gently, and murmured softly, \"Alexander...\"

He growled in return to the murmuring of his name, nipping her flesh softly, tasting her stomach and abdomen softly, just as he had done when experincing her the first time... but this seemed to have more of a purpose... and even subconsiously as it was, he was indentifing her, so if anything were to happen he could find her just by her scent, or flavor, or sound.. he was descovering her, making him growl in lust at each new part of her. He grinned, latching his hands onto her waist, and rolling onto his back, pulling her op over him to get a better look at her, having her seated on his abdomen. \"Beautiful..\" He murmured softly, taking her hands and kissing each fingertip lovingly.

She kissed him slowly down his chest, occasionaly playfully licking in places. Her fingers arched slightly when he kissed them, and then straightend out when he moved on. Kakurine was enjoying herself, gazing down at him lovingly, moving her hands to run them across his chest, lightly over each curve of his muscles. \"Alexander...\" She said softly, nuzzling against him gently, before gazing down again. \"I can\'t explain how much I love you...you\'re so incredible...\" She smiled and kissed him gently once more.

He grinned as she spoke, running his hand through her hair softly as she kissed her way over his chest, making him arch slight when he felt the heat of her tongue against his cool flesh. \"Your going to give me a big head\" He said softly, smirking. \"I should be telling you how wonderful you are, not the other way round my little angel\" He murmured back to her, stroking her cheek softly, her innocent little visage giving him such pleasure at just the slightest glance. \"Your perfection... Im not sure how I got along without you\" He sighed softly, happily, pulling her close to him in his large grip, one hand coursing through her hair as the other caressed the small of her back, kissing her tenderly in small passionate fleeting pecks.

Kakurine couldn\'t help but to laugh softly. Perfection? Her? She didn\'t see herself as being anywhere near perfect. She smiled at him though, her hands careesing him gently still, as she kissed his chest again slowly, going up this time, reaching his chin, and then his mouth. She moaned out softly, \"Alexander...\" as her hands worked lower against him, massaging his abdomen, going slightly lower, very slowly, teasingly. Nuzzling against him again, she kissed, and licked his chest playfully once more.

He took in a sharp intake of breath, clenching his teeth slightly as her hands refused to stop thier teasing desent. \"You... tease...\" He managed to breath out, gripping his hand into her hair softly, feeling the familiar discomfort of arousal brush against her, making him bite his bottom lip and even the slight contact. \"Kakurine...\" He breathed softly, closing his eyes a little as he laid his head back against the carpeting, it taking most of him just to gain his composure back, she was perfect to him.

Kakurine smiled innocently at him, as her hands continued their way down. \"Oh?\" She said, smiling, as her fingers slowly made contact with their destination, stroking lightly. \"If you remember...\" She murmured softly to him, her fingers pulling back slightly. \"You teased me last night, as well...\" Smiling, her fingers went back down slowly, then pulled up again. She kissed his chin, and licked his cheek playfully, looking pleased slightly at his reaction to her movements.

A breath seethed through parted lips, closing his eyes lightly as her slender fingers wrapped around him, his eyes fluttered closed softly. \"That... Feels wonderfull..\" he managed to breath out, eyes remaining closed as he swallowed heavily. \"Dont stop..\" He mumbled softly, feeling her tongue clash against his cheek, he tilted his head to the side, licking her extended tongue with his own, grinning a little as he pulled back, filling his hand with her soft hair and kissing her passionately, gripping her closely to him.

She kissed him back, her lips burning with as much passion as he was showing to her. Her figures stroked his length, wrapping around slightly, and sliding up and down slightly, before switching to rubbing once more. Her blood seemed to rush through her veins, giving her extra energy, her body feeling rather hot against Alexander\'s flesh. She looked up at him, before closing her eyes and kissing him once more, her fingers arching, and wrapping around slowly, gently.

There wasnt much more of this exquisite torture that he could take. \"K-Kakurine..\" He mumbled, biting her lower lip softly, he pulled her body closer to him, sitting her on his abdomen gently, closely to the length that she had exquisitely pumped to a point of almost desctrutive passion... he could feel his vampire instincts telling him to just take her, but he didnt want to give in so easily... he could feel his fangs extend, his eyes laced with the inky blackness of desire. \"Im yours to control my little one...\" He murmured softly into her ear, stroking her silky locks gently as he looked over her, sitting on innocently upon him, so closely to his burning desire... almost more than he could bare.

Kakurine smiled at him, wondering just how much more he could take before he would give in. Curiousity compelling her to find the answer, she tilted her head down, and kissed him gently on his lips. \"Alexander...\" She murmured softly to him, as her lips parted from his. She kissed his brow, and ran her fingers down his chest, her nails gently careesing his muscles. She was almost tourturing them both. Him, with her slow movements, and herself, for making her wait as well.

Alexander couldnt hold on, it was taking to much out of him, he was a vampire after all, with lust far greater than any mortal. He gripped his fingers into her slender waist, sitting up and slowly backing her into his length, pulling her body so he could guide himself within where he longed to be. Even the gentle touch on the outside of her slicked intimacy was murder to him, clasping his lips to hers as he pushed her softly, slowly onto the head, letting her carry it on in any way she desired.

Letting him enter her, a soft moan escaping her lips, she slowly let his length go deeper inside of her. She moved her hips slightly, taking him in and out slowly to start with. The pleasure from it was causing her to moan a bit louder, as she lowered her lips over his, and kissed him passionatly. Kakurine was starting to become breathless with lust, the wait of his entry having aroused her more than she had let shown. Her fingers draping over his shoulders, she gripped them lightly, her blood boiling inside of her.

He rolled her small frame against him in a rotating motion, feeling her drenched insides rubbing against him was pure heaven, causing him to mingle his own moans with hers. \"Oh.. god..\" was all he could manage to breathe out, she was a tiny and tight now as she had been on her swansong night, he grinned devilishly, knowing it was he who claimed her, liking the idea of having her completelty to himself, the dominating male that he was. \"Mine... all mine..\" He murmured softly against her throat, kissing her neck softly, tickling her flesh with his hot lucid breath.

Her skin almost seemed to raidiate heat, sweat begining to make her slightly pale complexion damp. Her breathing continued to speed in and out of her lungs, as she gripped his shoulders lightly, in sweet pleasure. Kakurine\'s moans steadily grew louder, as her imense pleasure was reaching closer to climax, making her gasp occasionaly at each movement. Moving herself in rhythm with his own movements, she soon reached that same, sweet sensation she had found last night, making her moan out, \"A-Alexander...\" as her body shook in the aftermath, breathing deeply, yet softly, to try and slow her heart\'s rapid pace.

He groaned deeply, feeling her already tight insides cling around him, milking him of any resistance he had left, releasing within her tight folds deeply, moaning her name as he came. \"Kakurine...\" His breath billowed out, leaning his head softly on her shoulder. \"Your... so beautiful after Kakurine..\" He mumbled softly, resting her chin softly in his hand and looking at her, she radidated loveliness, innocence, he had just grown to adore her. \"Perfection is what you are\" He mused softly, dragging himself weakly out of her insides, he lifted her small form into his arms, beginging his walk to their bedroom.

Kakurine\'s breath soon came back, and she looked somewhat exhausted, but pleased. \"Alexander...\" She said softly, somehow still amazed at how the sensations felt wonderful, just like her first time. Perhaps even better, she thought to herself. She kissed his chin softly, her wings curved onto her shoulders for the moment. \"Alexander, you are...so wonderful...\" She smiled up at him, her body cooling down from the heat she had gained during their union. \"I love you...\" She told him softly.

He felt a strange constriction in his chest at her small sweet words. Was this what love felt like? He sighed softly, smiling down to her. \"I love you my sweet, beautiful little angel\" He muttered, kissing her forehead softly as he kicked open the door to thier room. \"You seem tired little one.. did i wear you out?\" He teased playfully, nuzzling the top of her head lovingly, before laying her down upon the sheets. He had a sudden urge to lay upon her once again, but pushing it away, not only due to her exaustion but to his own as well. He grinned, he had such a robust appitite for her it suprised even him, climbing into the bed and pulling the sheets over them, snuggling closely to her, covering her small form in his everpresent protection.

Kakurine cuddled close to him, letting out a soft breath. \"I\'m afraid you have again, love.\" She said, smiling at him, her eyes half closed. It was amazing to her how quickly she got worn out. But it was a sweet fatigue, and that was what mattered. Her breath was warm, as she breathed softly on his chest, her breathing slowing down slightly. \"I...can\'t stay up much longer...\" She told him softly, with a twinge of regret. Closing her eyes, she got a bit closer to him, feeling well protected, and guarded with his body near her. She felt, with him around, she had nothing anymore to worry about. Exhaustion soon took her completely, as she fell asleep, a small, innocent smile upon her face.

He smiled softly, watching her fall asleep, humming a soft lovetune to her as she fell into unconciousness. He himself was close to that point, Pulling her against him as he snuggled down into the waem sheets with her close to him. He felt a cruel growl echo in his stomach, biting his lower lip lightly, he knew that he hadnt eaten in such a long time, and... he couldnt bare to feed of of Kakurine, it just didnt seem right, like killing an innocent dove. He closed his eyes, ignoring the gnawing in his stomach, in his very being, A vampire possessed by his hunger was a dangerous thing.. he decided to simply sneak out tomorrow night and feed. With his mind made up, he fell into a deep sleep, only slightly disturbed by is hunger.

Eyelids twitching slightly, Kakurine soon woke up the next night, a bit early. A soft yawn escaped her, as she slowly sat up from the bed, her wings stretching forward slightly to get them used to being extended once again. She had a yearning to try and fly sometime soon, but decided not to do so for a little while longer. She needed to become a bit stronger, before she would try flying again. Sure, she could hover with no trouble, as it did not take much energy. But it had been a while since she had run, or gotten a chance to practice her flight skills. Rubbing her eyes slightly, she slowly slid off of the bed, her feet lightly touching the floor.

Alexander had flet her heat leaving him, originally roused from rest when he noticed her heartrate change dramatically in her awakening. \"Urrhhgg... Kakurine...\" He wimpered, laying on his stomach in the bedsheets, groaning for her to come back, it was much to early in his mind, and he was devestated by the loss of warmth, having become so accustomed to it being there. \"Come back to bed, its to early...\" He begged softly, looking up to her, his large rocky blue eyes turning almost puppy dog like, he pouted playfully.

Kakurine chuckled slightly, as she slid back into the bed, staying awake though snuggling close to him. Her soft wings wrapping around the two of them for extra warmth. Her body pressed against him slightly, waiting for him to get out of bed. She did not mind being in bed still, as she thought to herself for a moment. Kakurine had become happier within her time of being with Alexander. She even remembered when at first, she was so quiet and shy, she rarely spoke a few sentences to him. Well, now, she was glad that changed.

Alexander heaved a comfortable sigh, not realy wanting to get up, but the false summer that was outside made him want to go even more, having missed the warm summer nights durning the sivering winter that had only reecently passed. \"Ugh... guess i have no choice\" he mumbled, pulling himself up reluctantly from the comfortable folds of her silken wings, gripping thehead board to hoist himself up. He felt somewhat weakened, legs stiff from his lack of nourishment, he would find something to feed on tonight or he would surely not be able to rise in the evening tommorow.

Kakurine smiled. \"It\'s not too early, you know.\" She teased lightly, before sliding back out of bed, stretching her wings out slightly. Curving her wings around her, merely to stop chill from coming to her body, she looked over at him. Even she was starting to notice her own hunger. It had been a couple of days, she reminded herself, as she stood up. \"I\'m going to go and get dressed.\" She told him, kissing him gently on the cheek, before leaving the room and going into \'her room\', pulling out some clothing.

He nodded, smiling softly as she pecked him on the cheek, dragging himself out of bed, he didnt plan on seeing anyone today, so simple trousers and pesants clothing seemed to suit him fine. He walked down the stairs seeing Anna in the kitchen, preparing something for kakurine, it smelt to him like a soup, he hadnt touched such things in centuries and had forgotten how to distingush different poultry\'s. Anna smiled softly when she saw him enter the ktichen, but it changed to worry when he came into the light of the fire. \"Alexander.. you look ill, you havent eaten in days have you..\" she sounded somewhat forlorn, leaving the simmering pot, whiping her hands in her apron and pressing it to alexanders forehead. \"Im fine really\" He assured her, though nto convincingly.

Kakurine pulled out a navy dress, slipping into it. The dress was backless, so her wings would be able to rest without any problems of being bunched up. She smoothed her hair out, and walked to the door, opening it to head down to meet with Alexander. As she came down into the kitchen, she noticed Alexander\'s somewhat sickly appearance. \"Alexander, are you alright?\" She asked, looking concerned. It took a moment, but she suddenly realised that he had not eaten in a while. At least, to her knowledge.

\"What is with you women? Ive told you im fine, and i am\" He said once again, smirking a little and shaking his head, though they were right. he was feeling sickly, and didnt know just now well he could corner someone and overpower them enough to feed. He pulled out kakurnies chair, while anna placed a plate of the stew on the table, the scent was so close to him it was almost sickening to his empty stomach. \"Eat little one, you need your strength\" He teased playfully, making his way out to the living room to let her eat in peace, quitely conversing with anna while he abzorbed the heat from the fire as a form of placid nourishment.

Kakurine let out a sigh at his stubborness, but shook her head, and ate the food set for her. She, herself, couldn\'t really tell him off for not eating. She had not eaten in at least two days, but she was used to hunger. Still, her nourishment had definatly improved ever since she was taken from the market. Casting a look at the livingroom, she sort of felt guilty that he hadn\'t been feeding. Now that she thought of it, he had only fed off of her once since she had been there. As she finished, she rose from the table, once again cleaning up after herself. \'Old habits die hard...\' She thought to herself with a slight smile.

Anna was still scholding him when Kakurnine ate, he rolled his eyes and sighed, leaning his arms in the mantle and looking into the flames, Though everything the young vampire said was true. \"Shes your slave Alexander, you should be able to feed of her without feeling this chivalrious guilt you have\" She told him sternly, knowing Kakurine could handle it, she had gained a little stamina since she came here, but Alexander still refused. \"Shes not a continuous meal for me Anna\" He would tell her, she would scoff and growl a little in her throat. \"I was\" Was all she murmured, walking off, leaving alexander feeling even worse than before.

Kakurine came over to Alexander. \"Alexander, just feed off of me for tonight. At least to get your strength back.\" She said, standing next to him. \"You\'ve only fed off of me once since I\'ve been here. Remember, I heal within a day\'s time, I\'ll be fine.\" She touched his shoulder lightly. \"Come on now, you\'re looking worse than me. And that\'s saying something.\" She said lightly, looking up into his face. She knew he did not want to feed off of her now, but he needed his nourishment as much as her.

Alexander looked down to her, the sweet innocent face he hand fallen in love with, offering herself to him like it was nothing but a daily routine. He feared what happened to anna might happen to her, being deprived of blood for so long he could easily overpower her with bloodlust, drain her almost dry... have no other choice but to change her into one of the darkness. He still guilted over it from time to time... often he had brought anna back victims, but she became resentful and refused them, untill they were merely two people living the the same house. He sighed lightly at the sour memories, pressing his hand to her cheek, he smiled gently, pulling her close to him, kissing her gently. \"I love you Kakurine, and ill never use you like a pet, this will be the last time i ever feed off you\" He assured her, kissing her forehead lovingly.

Smiling up at him, she nodded her head slowly. \"I love you too, Alexander. I don\'t want you to be weak with hunger, I always will give myself willingly to you.\" She wrapped her arms around him slightly, looking up at his face, her crimson eyes peering into his. Her lips were curled into a small smile, her hair slightly covering her eyes, though not much. The silvery wings upon her back were folded neatly, shining a bit when any bit of light caught on them. Kakurine gave him a soft peck on the lips, as she gazed up at him.

He sighed gently, holding her small frame in his arms affectionately, he grazed his fingertips over her throat, feeling the pulse of her blood, his eyes already gaining the inky blackness that lust and blood brang to them, he kissed her once again, trailing his lips over her throat adoringly, he could almost hear her blood pulse through her body, under his fingertips, his lips, the heat that came off her body. He lifted her arms from around his neck, holding both her small hands in one of his against his chest gently, nuzzling the silvery hairs of her throat, he barred his fangs slowly, hunger overpowering guilt, he sunk them deeply into her throat, tasting the delicious essence that poured from her body, growling in hunger as he drank from her.

Kakurine closed her eyes, feeling herself slowly feeling the familiar pang of exhaustion. Her wings sagged slightly, as she could feel her blood leaving her. She fought the exhaustion, staying still as she had done the first time he fed from her. Kakurine had become so willing towards Alexander; she would do anything for him, she realised. Her mind was thinking of him, glad she was helping him, as she could feel herself becoming sleepy once more. Her eyes stayed closed, for the time being, keeping herself relaxed.

He could feel her weaking in his arms, holding her close to his form, allowing her to lean on him for balance, having to push himself away from her throat, his lips and teeth coated in her blood. He breathed heavily, licking the wounds on her neck lovingly, helping them clot somewhat faster, eventually pulling away completely, he licked his lips gently. \"Kakurine... i love you so\" He whispered into her ear softly, kissing the pointed tip, lifting her frail form into his arms and carrying her familiarly up the stairs.

\"I..love you...too...\" She said softly, opening her eyes and gazing at him in exhaustion. Her eyelids were fluttering softly, but she tried to stay awake just a bit longer, to look at him. Already, her body was at work healing, slowly giving her strength once more. She looked up at him for a slight moment longer, before shutting her eyes, falling asleep, with a content sigh leaving her lips. She snuggled up unconciously in his arms, her face in his chest slightly, as her breathing slowed in sleep.

He smiled softly, brushin his lips to her head, he kicked open the door in that silently familiar way, closing it behind him in a similar fashion. pulling back the sheets, he lay her within them, it had become colder already, the false summer fading away into the chill of mid spring once again... he sighed, stripping off his own clothing, the warmth of her blood in his veins already overwealming, he pulled the sheets up to his navel, resting on his back with his head on his arms, he watched her for a moment, even more innocent in her sleep, he smiled, laying awake for a few moments, his eyes closed to the vision of a almost full moon, falling asleep.

The next night, her eyelids twitched, as she shifted slightly on the bed, not wanting to wake up just yet. She was comfortable, and the heat of her blood was inside of her once again, her strength back completely. A slight moan left her lips, as she opened her eyes, her wings twitching lightly. She rubbed her eyes slightly, leaning up from the bed slowly. Her fingers soon ran through her hair, as she yawned, waking up completely. Kakurine sat up straight, stretching slightly, before looking over to where Alexander slept.

Alexander slept in almost the same position he had fallen asleep in, One hand rested on his uncovered chest, the other behind his head, ebony hair hanging into his eyes lazily, he knew she was awake subconsiously, but refused to rise. He could feel the familiar ache in his back, and the lumination of the moon the night before... time seemed to be flying by, and by tomorrow night he would be the all to familiar beast he was only a month before... the fates were cruel in that way... though last time, he could control himself, and had promised that each time he changed, he would learn to control himself better.

Kakurine smiled softly, before rising slowly from the bed, going into her room to get clean clothes. Her fingers going through the clothing, she looked at the window, and frowned. Time had certainly passed quickly. She knew he would become that creature once more, making her sigh, as she pulled out a clean dress, getting in it. She wasn\'t sure she would be able to stay away from him this time. But, he had control over himself last time. Perhaps this time would be different? She gazed at the mirror in her room slightly, as she smoothed her hair out again. She went down stairs then, looking down for the moment.

Anna was sitting in the kitchen, looking out the window, Kakurines meal was already laid out on the table for her, still steaming. \"My, time does fly doesnt it?\" She said forlornly, hating seeing him in such turmoil each month, not even his frightening animal side, but the pain he went through changing back each time, the fevers, the cries... she cared for him to much to want something like that to happen to him, even if she resented him for all those years ago... He was somewhat changed. she pulled her eyes away from the moonlight streaming through the windows, letting another sigh pass her lips.

She sighed as well, and nodded. \"Yes, it does...\" She said, as she seated herself, looking at the food set out infront of her for a moment. \"But...he might have more control...\" She reasoned softly, looking at Anna. \"I mean, I haven\'t seen but one time, and he stopped himself from hurting me.\" She stared back down at her food, finnaly eating, falling silent for the moment. But then again, Kakurine was a virgin when he first changed, and he stopped from taking her then. But this time, she was not, and he knew how she felt about him fully now. Would it turn out to be different, in a bad way? She pushed the thoughts out of her mind, as she finished eating.

Alexander eventually came down to the kitchen, he noticed how forlorn the women looked.. he frowned a little, knowing it was his fault, and thought it best not to mention anything of the nights to come. He cleared his throat slightly, unable to think of anything to say to them for comfort, simply kissing Anna on the forehead lightly, alway seeming to cure her worry, and beconing Kakurine to the living room when she was done. he hated the sour feeling his transformations gave him.

Kakurine rose from the table, and looked at Alexander. She came into the living room, having just finished eating, though there was still some food left. She always seemed to have a terrible appitite when she knew something unpleasant was about to happen. Straightening up, she walked over to Alexander, looking up at him. She smiled slightly, trying to make him feel better, along with herself. Kakurine gazed up at Alexander, as she stood next to him, currently silent.

Alexander manged to give her a slight smile, but in reality it felt so forced he just allowed it to fade, eyes turning to the flame. He sighed lightly, letting his eyelashes curl over the icy blue of his orbs for a moment of thought. \"Kakurine... I -I never remember anything that ever happens durning full moons... i didnt even know i hurt anyone untill my last one... i worry about what i might do to you my little girl....\" he paused, sweeping his fingertips lightly over the gentle curve of her cheek. \"Somehow... I plan to keep you safe, along with learning how to control myself... but please, once again you must try to keep your distace, and as much as it hurts me to be parted from you... its to keep you safe\" He murmured softly, feeling the familiar tingle in his back already. he leant foreward, kissing her lips ever so softly, \"I love you\" He murmured to her.

She had kissed him back, looking into his eyes for the moment, seeming lost like a child. She murmured, \"I love you, too, Alexander...\" before sighing, looking at the fire for a moment. \"I\'ll keep my distance, as last time...I\'ll make sure I have everything sealed off. Even though it is hard for me to withstand; being apart from you as well...\" Raising her bright, crimson optics to his face, she smiled very lightly, as if trying to reassure him that it would all be alright. \"I know you\'ll still keep me safe.\" Kakurine gave him a soft kiss, brushing her lips against his, before withdrawing again.

He nodded lightly, but almost wished she didnt have so much blind faith in him, he surely didnt have it in himself. He glanced to the window, noticing it was still rather dark, but he felt weak and tired beyond compare, exaustion seemed to come on him quickly. \"Im.. Going to go off to bed. Ill miss you tonight\" He murmured softly, giving her a playful wink to lighten up the mood, kissing her forehead gently and hugging her closely to him before traipsing up the stairrs quickly, he rubbed his eyes, knowing they must have begun thier change... he sighed softly, having not known about this change before hand had almost been better, but only on his concious, be prayed the knowlage before hand might help him control himself. The last thought on his mind before he crawled into the cool sheets ws of Kakurine, praying he would not harm her.

Kakurine lingerd out a little longer, before heading up to retire in her old room. She realised it had been a while since she had slept in there; a month to be percise. She sighed lightly, missing being with Alexander already. But, she knew it was better this way. And if he could finnaly learn to control that form, it may be different sometime in the future. Before she went to change clothing, she locked her door, and the window, before slipping into a fresh nightgown. Kakurine let out a soft sigh, as she slid into her bed, her wings stretching out momentarily. As she knew she might have troubles sleeping, she would try to sleep in the next night, so the time would be shorter in her wait. Yawning widely, Kakurine laid on her side, her back to the door, as she drifted off to sleep.

Alexanders night was tension filled and painful , as it normally was durning transformation. He often cried out in pain durning the night, his huge batlike wings extending from his back, driping with the strange coating as they emerged from his shoulderblades like they had been there his entire life. His body grew, agonizingly so, reaching almost seven foot, his bones feeling as if they had been broken and healed in a matter of seconds. The strange coloration his his eyes, the icy blue pupils and inky black irises, increasing his ability to see in the dark, he was almost triple the power in this form, though it rarely did him any good, taken out in mere lust or hunger. His fangs extented as well, one of the final parts of his transformation, along with the clawlike grip of his hands and the change in the shape of his ears, pointed like bats. Once the night hand come once again he lingered awake, sitting on his bed, almost as if he were festering over some immoral thought, wings lazily floating up and down. He could smell her. She was close.

Sleeping soundly, Kakurine was still in bed, curled up on her side. Soft beams of moonlight occasionally fell on her face, coming from the window whenever her curtains would shift slightly. Her wings were half out, one draping neatly over the side of the bed, the other neatly laying across it. Her eyelids twitched slightly, as she was currently in a dreaming state. In her mind, she saw herself sitting next to the fire with Alexander, happily talking and laughing. The dream was wonderful, and made her feel a bit better, since she thought she was still with Alexander. Her head lightly turned to the side, as she slept a bit longer than normal.

He flet... somewhat strange. some part of him told him to stay in that room, away from her... a conscience? Strange, he thought blankly to himself, wondering just what he wanted from her in his bizzare state... he hungered, more than normal, deciding to take a moment to go feast on some unrelenting creature of the forest. He leapt from his window, gliding over the sky in the moonlight. He could hear everylittle thing around him, every sound seemed to echo in his mind. The soft wimpering from something in the forest caught his attention outrightly, he rose an eyebrow, gluiding over to the area where he could see the outline of a dog of some sort, the thick send of blood comming to his nose before anything, he cringed, never liking the send of old animal blood, especially cold. But this animal was long dead... then what was wimpering? Upon closer inspection, he realized it to be a small, scrawny pup, a wolf pup to be exact... apparently by the looks of it his mother was killed and feasted upon long ago, and the pup hadnt moved since. He landed gracefully beside it, looking to the carcass then to the pup, whos black fur was almost unidentifiable in the darkness except for its bright yellow eyes. He thought for a moment, before picking it up into hid arm, then taking flight once again.
Landing on her windowsill Alexander Kocked softly on kakurines window, his blue pupils refiecting back at him on the glass... he looked away, refusing to acknowlege his current state.

She was awoken from her dream moments later, having heard the soft knocking on her window. Yawning, she stretched out, not quite noticing Alexander on her windowsill just yet. Her wings flexed, sending soft colors of silver flickering against the wall of her room, before she finnaly raised her eyes to her window. Spotting Alexander, she watched him for the moment, still reminding herself that he might try to hurt her, like on the first night she had seen him like that. Rising from her bed, she made it hastily, walking over. She unlocked the window, but did not open it. \"Alexander..?\" She asked, looking up at him.

He could understand her fear, but still seemed impatient in his tone. \"open the window Kakurine\" He said sharply, then noticing how it sounded, he cleared his throat, speaking again, in a much softer tone. \"I.. have a present for you\" He mumbled softly, opening the window only enough for him to hold the small wolf pup in his hand, it was small and could be encompased almost completely in his hand. \"Its mother is dead, and its quite hungry.... you should take it down stairs and feed it\" He said softly, looking to her eyes with his own, but then looking down slightly, almost as if embaressed by his appearance.

Her eyes seemed to brighten slightly when she saw it was a wolf pup. She took it imediately, and looked at the small pup. \"Oh, the poor thing...\" She said softly, stroking it very gently with her fingers. Kakurine held the pup in her left arm, using her right one to lay a hand on Alexander\'s. \"Thank you.\" She told him. \"It might be coincidence, I happen to love wolves. I-I used to have one when I was younger.\" Looking at him, she smiled a bit. \"I will tend to this pup now.\" Her hand left his, as she went to her door, opening it to head downstairs. She craddled the small pup, as if it were her own child, seeming to have taken a liking to it already.

He could smell her throughout the room, and longed to come within the confines of the house... but could he trust himself? He pulled his hand back out of the window, feeling her warmth still on his hand. He sighed softly, Anna was still downstairs as well, and surely she could tell him right where to go if he got out of hand. Taking one causious step inside, he looked around her room, taking in a deep breath of her scent, before walking downstairs, he looked into the kitchen, seeing Anna Hand Kakurine and old baby\'s bottle to feed the tiny pup, obviously too young to eat whole food yet... he smiled softly, watchng the little pup sturggle as he smelt the milk, wimpering for it. He walked into the kitchen after a moment, looking at the too women, trying to seem as small as possible, but his height and huge wings only made him seem huge. He smiled softly. \"h-hows the pup?\" He asked, trying to get anna\'s gaping mouth to close.

Kakurine looked over at Alexander, and up at him, smiling. As she watched the pup latch onto the bottle, sucking on it to drink it\'s fill, she said, \"I think this little pup will be alright, after it gets some nourishment.\" Nodding to the pup, she watched the small creature in her arms, feeding off of the bottle. \"I don\'t think it would have been able to last much longer, if you hadn\'t come. This little guy owes you.\" She teased slightly, stroking the tiny pup\'s ears. Flexing her wings, she walked out to sit next to the fire, keeping the wolf in her arms at all times. Well, now she would have something to do, if she was alone.

He grinned a little, walking closer to her and rubbing the little pups belly a small rub, he had always liked animals none the less, and glad that she had something to keep her company. \"Hmm... well, if hes staying, we might as well give it a name... think of anything?\" He asked curiously, flexing his wings lightly outward, his eyes always keeping away from hers, though he longed to look into them, didnt want to frighten her in anyway. Anna seemed wary of him being at such close proximity to them in his transformed state, even his voice held a demonic state... she could see the constant twitch of his wings... he was restraining himself.

Kakurine seemed to be in thought, as if trying to come up with a good name. \"I remember the name I had given my wolf, back then...\" She said, remembering the full-grown dark grey wolf that she had become friends with while she was a child. \"Yasashiku was the name I had given him. And this pup even looks like him a bit.\" Idlely, she continued to pet the pup, tilting her head lightly, smiling. \"Perhaps naming him after my old friend... Hiku.\" She finally decided, giving a nod to herself. \"Yes, I think I like that.\" Watching the newly named pup, she remembered a bit of her past with the wolf she had played with, and taken care of. Since hiding from people kept her isolated, her animal friend had kept her plenty of company.

The tiny animal seemed to love his new human attention, Alexander thought whou wouldnt love someone who fed you.. another grin comming to his lips. \"Yes.. thats a fine name\" He murmured softly, seeing the pup had almost drained the bottle which had been connected to him for the past few moment,s curling into Kakurines bosom exaustedly, he grinned brightly. \"Seems our little friend must be tired... you should let him sleep infront of the fire in the living room, keep him warm\" Alexander mused softly, placing his hand on her lower back, but as soon as he felt the blood that pumped through her veins he removed it like she was on fire, but nonchalantly, as he motioned to the livingroom, A sigh passed his lips, as he sat down in front of the flickering fire, adding another log as he did so.

Nodding, she moved a bit closer to the fire, holding the pup lightly in her arms, before setting him onto the ground. Keeping the small pup company a bit longer, she pet him gently, watching as Hiku was drifting off into sleep. She chuckled softly to herself, before she rose to her feet, cleaning the bottle, before walking back out. Looking at Alexander, she smiled lightly, laying her hand on his shoulder again. \"You did such a nice thing for this pup.\" She told him, happily looking at him. Not wanting to provoke his demon self, she took her hand away, walking back towards the stairs. Kakurine was not tired just yet, since she had slept in during the night, slightly.

He watched her lay the pup down, where it curled up into a ball and fell fast asleep. He smiled softly when he heard her voice, scoffing. \"I didnt really do anything... you fed it ,and are more than likely going to keep it more company than i will.. so your being the kind one darling\" He said softly to her, watching her hand leave his shoulder, desperately wanting to just cling onto her, he let out an involuntary wimper, pretending it never happened by clearning his throat. \"A-are you going to bed already?\" He asked gently, looking back to her, but then looking to her feet quickly.

\"No, not yet.\" She said, looking up the stairs slightly. \"I slept in earlier, so I am still a bit wide awake.\" She looked back at him, smiling lightly. \"I plan to stay up for a bit longer. Sleep normally doesn\'t come easy for me.\" She admitted, looking at the ground slightly, before back up at him, into his eyes, unflinching. \"And anyways, we are both being kind to the pup.\" Kakurine leaned against the wall slightly, standing next to the staircase. Falling silent for the moment, she merely watched him, keeping a steady gaze.

He fliched long before she did, the steady gaze putting his beast like eyes on edge, he shifted on the floor infront of the flame slightly, before sighing and standing. He smirked a little, getting an idea into his head. \"Kakurine... Come with me\" He said softly, walking to her and taking her hand, pulling her up the stairs to her own room. he smiled, almost devilishly, and opened her blinds, then her window, letting the cool spring air filter in. \"Your wings can lift you, can they not?\" He asked her softly

\"Yes, they can.\" She said, flexing them softly, as if testing them to catch a bit of breeze. \"It...has been a while, I confess, since I have tried to fly, however...\" Admiting that, she looked up at him, smiling slightly. She suddenly chuckled slightly. \"Are you telling me we\'re going out to fly?\" Kakurine tilted her head lightly, her wings twitching slightly, the feathers shining a bit dimly. Kakurine could barely remember the last time she had flown. Infact, it was a few years back, when she was caught by people who wished to sell her in the slave market.

He smiled softly, giving her a weak nod and a boyish grin. \"Dont worry, i can carry much weight on these ... wings\" He said, bringing back not to fond memories to his mind, he shook them away slightly, looking back to her, he let go of her hand and stood in the window sill. \"I wont let you fall\" He said with a wink, before falling out of the window, and catching his massive batlike wings on a breeze, lifting him up into the night sky. \"Come\" He urged her, hovering in place and extending his hand to her.

Kakurine stood on the windowsill, crouching slightly, before letting herself drop a foot, then hover back up, her wings flapping with a slight hint of unsteadiness. It surprised a bit on how well she was doing, despite how long it had been since last she flew. Hovering over to Alexander, she got close to him, holding onto his hand for a bit of support. She let out a sigh to relax herself. \"Well, so far I seem to remember more than I thought I would.\" She smiled feebly, her hand clinging to his lightly, as her wings started to beat up and down more evenly.

He grinned, watching her hover next to him, her small body hovering next to his, and her tiny hand in his. \"The ground are beautiful at night, i thought we might take a little tour\" He told her gently, having to flap his wings half as many times as she did, thier sheer size even slightly emposing to him. \"Shall we?\" He said softly, pulling her up with him and then diving down playfully over the treetops, almost touching the tops before pulling her back up, pulling her up over his head and catching her round the waist playfully, he smiled to her lovingly, even his eyes seemed somewhat less cold.

She laughed a bit, apparently more joyful in the air. Ah...it had been so long... Her wings stretched out, the cool breezing feeling so good to her. Her hair whiping slightly in her face; the feeling of the air wafting through her finger tips and frame. She looked at Alexander, a loving look on her face, looking quite pleased to be in the sky. The large wings on her back seemed to have remembered how to fly now, more confidently flapping, her own hands resting on the large hands that were around her waist.

The air was wonderful and he loved it, loved feeling her close to him, the happy look on her face as she flew through the sky. \"Beautiful isnt it?\" He said softly, releasing her from his grasp and taking her hand in his so she could fly more easily, her wing strokes were almost even with his now, he was suprised by this. A grin rose to his lips as they flew over a small pond, he pulled her down, skimming the fingertips of his freehand over the water, making strange and beautiful ripples. \"Ill never get tired of that\" He mused boyishly.

\"Beautiful; wonderful...\" She breathed out slightly, watching the ripples his hand made. She suddenly flipped onto her back, flying backwards, her wings dipping into the water, bringing it up slightly around them. The water dropletts on her wings made them almost sparkle in the moonlight, as she flew up slightly, twirling once to dry them off, before hovering near Alexander again. She smiled, and sighed. \"I have missed doing this. I used to do it every day when I was a child...\"

He laughed playfully, seeing her wings glitter like diamonds in the light of moon, his eyes seems somewhat glued to her, mesmurized by her innocent beauty. \"Your... so beautiful\" She said softly, flying somewhat closer to her small form, wrapping his arms around her tenderly, bringing up a hand to brush her silvery locks from the intensity of her crimson abyss\'s. \"You make me so happy\" he whispered into her ear, letting his warm breath travel over her neck gently, kissing just below her ear lovingly. He could feel his heart pumping against his ribs, crying out for blood, but he kept his movments slow and gentle, gaining more and more control over himself in this from.. though he would not remember it in a day.. he sighed at the depressing thought.

\"Would you like for me to tell you what we did this night, once you\'re back to normal?\" She asked, raising her eyes and looking up at him. She smiled, and lowered her eyes back to the water. Kakurine yawned slightly, her eyes drifting shut a bit. \"I\'m afraid I am feeling a bit tired right now...\" Her eyelids were lazily drifting open and close, her hand reaching up and rubbing her eyes gently, as she surpressed another yawn. Opening her eyes a bit wider, she looked at him, and said, \"Perhaps we should head back now.\"

He smiled, seeing they seemed to be thinking on the same wavelength. \"Yes, that would be wonderful my little one\" He murmured softly, noticing her yawn cutely, making him grin, her bright eyes drooping softly. \"Alright, i can see your mighty tired, i keep forgetting the nighttime makes you sleepy\" he joked with a grin, winking playfully. He growled with a grin, scooping her into his arms bridal style, and flying back to the house with her in his arms.
It didnt take long for them to get back, but he could feel the sunlight beginning to make its appearance in less then an hour. He set her down on her windowsill, smiling softly to her. \"Are you fine here?\" He asked, worried she might not feel safe in a room he could so easily get into, he hoped that his display tonight convinced her that he was under control of his actions, for the most part.

\"I\'m fine.\" She nodding to him, opening her window and going back inside. She leaned out slightly to give him an innocent kiss on the cheek. \"I\'ll just go to bed now...I feel rather exhausted, and it has been ages since I\'ve gone out for a \'midnight flight\'.\" She joked slightly, but it was true. It had been so long...and she was just getting used to flying once more, she used up a lot of energy on their little tour. Yawning again, she rubbed her eyes slightly, and said, \"Sleep well...\" before shutting her window slightly, going into her bed, and getting under the covers. Kakurine snuggled up warmly in them, and fell asleep rather quickly.

He smiled softly, feeling her soft lips on his cheek, he watched her curl up into the sheets, snuggling beneath them and falling asleep. He sighed softly, flying to another open window, somewhat bellow hers and to the right, flicking the clasp and gliding inside. He was feeling somewhat sleepy as well. but he just couldnt go to sleep.. he missed her, missed her little body curled up with his... Thus sending him on that forbidden excursion to her room, opening the door silently, it had been locked but somehow most things that were against his will seemed to change, like involuntary telekinisis. He could see her little form beneath the sheets, he grinned, removing his clothing and lifing up the blankets, pulling himself close to her, wrapping his arms around her and whispering a soft \"hush\" to calm her if he had frightened her. He held her close, draping a powerful wing over her protectively.

Kakurine was undisturbed, seeming to have missed being with Alexander as well, even though she was still asleep. She rolled over slightly, so that she faced him, letting out a soft sigh in her sleep, her eyes remaining closed. Her face and chest pressed against him slightly, her wings lightly twitching in her sleep, the soft, silky feathers brushing against him ocassionaly. Snuggling up against him unconciously, her little warm body gave him some of her warmth, as she stayed asleep, murmuring something that could not be understood in her sleep.

He was somewhat shocked to see her turn into him, but it faded to a gentle smile, pulling her close and ksising her forehead, the softness of her wings brushing against him, feeling her gentle heartbeat, his own swelled with love for the little creature in his arms. \"I love you...\" He whispered almost silently, feeling his eyes begin to close whith the morning light, holding her protectively all through the day, untill the skylarks gave way to nightingales.

Sleeping through the morning, she felt safe and secure with Alexander\'s arms protectivly around her, giving her a strong sense of security. Her breath was slow in sleep, even as the sun started to set, and night came once more. An hour after sunset, her eyes opened slowly, her heart quickening in pace to a calm conciousness. Kakurine gave a soft yawn, stretching slightly, a bit surprised when she noticed Alexander in bed with her. But she smiled, and stayed still, awaiting for him to awaken and unlock his arms from her.

He felt her awaken, felt the change in her heartbeat awaken him, he let out a groan of rebellion, and instead of releasing her, he only pulled her closer. \"Good morning my beautiful little one\" he said in his gruff morning voice, kissing her tenderly on the lips. \"Did you sleep well?\" he asked softly, finally releasing her slightly from his arms, but playfully keeping his leathery wings wrapped around her petite form.

She kissed him back gently, before drawing her lips away, smiling and nodding. \"Yes, I slept well...Better, since you were there with me.\" Looking up at his face, she still laid down, her silky feathers brushing against his leathery wings. \"When did you come in last night?\" She asked, yawning slightly to aid in her awakening, rubbing her eyes slightly. Shaking her head slightly, Kakurine smiled at him, her eyes now open all the way in full-alert.

He grinned, brushing his fingers through her silken locks. \"Just a bit after you fell asleep...\" he said softly, watching the oxymornonic brushing of thier wings, the contrast between the two, echoing to him her sweet innocence. His smile seemed to widen slightly, pulling her close and rolling onto his back, so she lay above him. \"How about we stay here all day? im sure i can think of something for us to do..\" he said with a grin, rubbing his hands beneath her nightgown, over her smooth thighs tantalizingly.

She held in a slight moan, and looked down at him, smiling. \"Are you sure? All day?\" A slight tinge of blush appeared in her cheeks when she asked that, but her lips were still curled into a smile, as she stayed laying ontop of him. \"What do you have in mind?\" Kakurine tilted her head playfully, her crimson colored eyes peering into his, seeming to be unintimidated by them, unlike how she was when she first met him. It surprised her slightly how much had changed over the past month.

He cocked an eyebrow to her question, his cocky air never seeming to betray him. \"Of course, all day.. .dont think I can do it?\" He teased, trailing his hands up around her cute behind, grasping her around the waist with a devilish grin. \"Im sure i could keep you plenty happy for the rest of this day... never even leaving this room..\" He whispered hotly ino her ear, holding her closely to him, rucking up her nightdress as he did so.

Her slightly pointed ear twitched slightly at the feeling of his hot breath upon it, getting slightly closer to him, smiling up at him. She chuckled slightly, and nodded. \"I know you can do that...\" Kakurine got closer to him, looking up at his face, affection in her eyes. Snuggling close, her hair brushing against his chest as she laid her head on him, smiling softly. \"What do you have in mind?\" She asked him, lifting her gaze back up to his face.

He of course, had many ideas, none of which he would let her in on right away. His grin only seemed to widen, his hand grasping her to him as he turned over, laying her beneath him, which was the way he usually liked to see her, his mind travelled off to many hellish thoughts, all making him grin more. \"Oh... how about.. making love to you.. over, and over.. and ove...\" His words were cut off, as he latched his lips to her throat, kissing it tenderly, nuzzling his lips along her jawline lovingly. \"Why, what did you have in mind? knitting?\" He teased, letting his hands roam over the flatness of her belly.

Kakurine let out a soft moan, closing her eyes for a slight moment at the words he said. \"Of course not.\" She said with a slight laugh. \"If I knew how to knit, we probably wouldn\'t do that either...\" She kissed him lightly, brushing her lips almost teasingly across his chin, pausing at his lips for a moment before resuming in moving. \"Do you think...we can actually do that all night?\" Kakurine again tilted her head, smiling at him as her eyes stayed on his.

He nodded, winking and kissing her tenderly. \"Oh.. i could make love to you for days..\" He murmured lovingly, leaning up on his elbows, a sudden shift of pain comming to his back, he let out a small seething groan, looking back to his wing.. it was deteriorating, slowly, and painfully, as it always did. He growled, havinging wanted to spend the day with her.. he missed her warmth. \"Damit\" he cursed, leting out another small groan, feeling as if his wings wings were turnung to stone.

She looked back at his wings, having noticed his groan of pain, feeling a bit concerned. When she noticed the way the wings were getting ready to fall apart, she let out a slight sigh. \"Oh...you\'re changing back now.\" She said, not smiling only because she knew it was painful for him, and did not like the thought of him being in such pain.. She leaned up, and got close to him, her body pressing against his to comfort his pain. \"I\'ll stay here with you, ok...?\"

He shook his head swiftly, knowing, feeling that he might get voilent in the pain, such things were common in vampires. \"G-get anna my love, tell her to bring water and such, she will know\" He said softly, kissing her forehead tenderly. \"I love you\" He murmured, urging her up. He noticed his wings flaking, the cool inky blackness replaced with a sort of grey material that was falling appart.

\"I love you too...\" Kakurine said, before she hurried out of her room, heading down stairs, looking around for Anna. \"Anna? Anna, Alexander\'s changing back now.\" She called out slightly, as her wings stretched out a bit, her checking every room for Anna, making sure she would have heard her. \"Anna?\" Kakurine almost stepped on Hiku, who luckly bounded out of the way, before she did.

Anna stepped in from outside, her oqn vampiric senses hearing Kakurine calling out to her. \"Kakurine? What is it? is Alexander changing?\" She asked softly, rushing into the kitchen and whiping off her hands, preapring a basin of hot water, one of cold and a few cloths. \"Here, take one of these, it will be easier to look after him with your help\" She said in a rushed voice, raising her head to hear a another bloodcurdling cry of pain from Alexander, his de transformation strangely rapid. \"Come child\" She urged, walking up the stairs to Alexanders room, where he lay on his chest, wimpering animalistically in pain.

Kakurine scurried up after Anna, coming over. \"Alexander...\" She said softly, her eyes cringing a bit at the sound and sight of his pain. Kakurine knelt near Alexander\'s side, looking down at him slightly, biting her bottom lip gently. She laid a hand on him gently, hoping she wasn\'t hurting him. \"Tell me what to do.\" She said, looking up at Anna, one cloth still in her hand. Her ears twitched, sensitive to the cries of Alexander.

Anna seemed somewhat unemotional, having seen him in this state, she almost knew exactly when his detransformation would be over. \"First, make sure those blinds are shut tight, we might be here for quite a while... \" she sighed, setting the basin next to her. \"Now.. almost in time with his cries, some of his wings will come appart. the dusty material is painful and sinks into whatever is left to his wings.. best thing to do is let me handle that, you should comfort him, keep a cold cloth to his head, whipe him of any sweat that might irritate his wings...\" she was very percice, beginnign her cleansing of his wings with the hot water, he let out a roar of pain, barely even phasing Anna as she continued to whipe away the decay, his roars subsiding to wimpers.

Kakurine nodded, and winced slightly when she heard Alexander yell like that, her heart clenching at his pain. She knelt near his head, putting her cloth to his head, wiping off whatever sweat would possibly irritate his wings. \'I can\'t stand to see Alexander in such pain...\' She thought to herself, her eyes seeming to almost swell in tears, though not shedding from her eyelids. \'Hopefully he doesn\'t have to feel this for so long...\'

Anna looked over to the girl, a small sigh passing her lips as she streatched out his wings, making sure she cleansed them perfectly. \"I know child.. tis a painful sight, but he is strong, and has been through it many times... unfortunately each one as painful as the one before it... tis a curse\" She muttered, her own eyes welling at Alexanders wimpers, she hated seeing him like this as well, he was normally so strong, commanding, arrogant in his aura, She smiled slightly at the soft memories of thier fragmented past. \"Hell be fine.\" She muttered, And as almost on cue, alexander cried out again, bearing his fangs and groaning, more of his wings falling away, as if each time they were cleaned more would come away, his eyes remained closed, but he could smell Kakurine... he knew she was close, and some how it comforted him.

\"You\'ll be alright soon, Alexander...\" Kakurine murmured slightly to him, wiping his brow off with the cold cloth, smiling slightly at him to try and cheer herself up. Kakurine suddenly frowned a bit. If only she had not spent so much time as a slave....at her age, most Winglies would have known some magic, and if she had trained during the time when she became a slave, she might have had known something to help ease Alexander\'s pain. Sighing at her lack of knowledge on such a subject, she kept washing his sweat away from him.

He could feel her presence, his mouth trying to form her name, but unable to do so, the searing pain of Anna whiping his wings clean, somehow felt better than the burning dust. He gripped onto the sheets cloesly, growling into them, his eyes slowly returning to there normal like, almost as if he were in lust, though nothing of the sort came to his mind. \"A-anna...\" He managed to mumble, having become so accustomed to calling for her when he was in pain, she bit her bottom lip, resting her hand on his upper arm as she continued her work over his wings. \"Tis alright, you\'ll be fine in an hour or so\" She mumbled, this seemed to calm him slightly, the wings seemed to just continue to fall appart from this point on.

Kakurine\'s bottom lip still seemed to tremble slightly at the sight of Alexander\'s suffering. Wrapping her wings around her, she watched the wings turning into dust, gazing at them for a moment. She knew the pain one could have in wings, though hers would not be so slow, but maybe just as painful... She quite remembered the first time someone had plucked one of her silvery feathers; it was pain beyond belief, that would cause her to twitch and scream loudly for a few minutes. But poor Alexander...he must have been feeling pains ten times as worse. Wiping his forehead off, she kept murmuring, \"It won\'t be long now...Everything will be fine soon...\"

The time passed desperately slowly, he could smell thier tears, it hurt him desperately to know they pitied his suffering. But soon, anna\'s whiping gave way to fresh, unmarred skin, and Alexanders wimperings subsided. \" Kakurine..\" Were the first words from his lips, he rested on his stomach, exausted. His eyes fluttered slightly, returned to thier normal stony blue hue.

She let out a relieved sigh, and smiled at him, as she dabbed at his forehead with the cold cloth. \"I\'m glad that\'s over...\" She whispered softly. \"Alexander, love, how are you feeling? Are you still in pain?\" Staying kneeled next to him, she lifted the cloth for his forehead slightly, wiping away sweat on him, before resting. Her hand reached over, and closed around his comfortingly, as she stayed right next to him, peering at his face.

He smiled tiredly, shaking his head. \"No.. not anymore\" He mumbled softly, holding her hand as it grasped over his. \"I just .. need sleep...\" He said in a tiny voice, and as if on cue his eyes closed, giving way to deep breathing. His hand still clung to hers, refusing to release her from his protective grasps even in sleep. Anna smiled softly, picking up the things that were scattered around, and brushing away any dust she had missed. \"Stay here child, comfort him\" She said in a tiny voice, everything seemed silenced.

\"I will...\" She whispered softly, leaning forward on the bed slightly, laying one arm on it, with her head resting on that. Her hand stayed in Alexander\'s grasp, not pulling it away, letting her fingers comfort him. Letting out a sigh, Kakurine watched him for a while, loving the fact that he was back to normal now. Though she had not eaten in a couple of days, she did not appear to be bothered with it, closing her eyes, falling asleep next to him with her body half off of the bed.

The night came swiftly for Alexander, almost to swiftly. He rolled slightly, feeling Kakurines hand in his, and wondering what she was doing layed out so strangely like that. He brushed her hair away from her cheek, kissing it tenderly. \"What, afriad to sleep fully in the bed with me? I wont bite\" He teased lovingly, picking up her small form easily and seating her sideways in his lap. \"What were you doing sleeping like that?\" He asked curiously, of course not remembering any of the nights before.

Kakurine woke up, and yawned slightly, opening her eyes to look up at his face. \"You still don\'t remember...\" She murmured something. With a slight sigh and a smile, she began to tell him what happened over the past nights, how he had found Hiku, and brought the small wolf pup there to be fed. She told him of their nightly flight together, how both of them flew outside and over the water, before he carried her back when she was tired, sleeping with her that night after she fell asleep. Then, she told him how she and Anna stayed with him while he was in pain, and how she kneeled by his side and was worried for him. \"So you see, I\'m not afraid to sleep in bed with you.\" Smiling, she added, \"I just must have felt so tired that I fell asleep by your side.\"

He seemed shocked by all this, amazed that he had transformed into some kind of beast, and not even remembered it, it was like the past three days had never even happened to him. He looked away slightly, rubbing her waist adoringly, kissing her forehead softly. \"Weren\'t you afriad of me, my little one? I could have ... done horrible things to you\" He muttered in a sad voice, worried about his actions toward her. \"I hope i was gentlemanly enough\" He murmured, grinning and nuzzling his lips against her throat. He felt her stomach slightly, noticing her tiny frame had gone away to nothing. \"Kakurine.. you havent been eating, have you?\" He asked worriedly, huddling her closer for a moment. \"Come, well get you something to eat\" He said with a smile standing up and pulling on a white shirt and trousers, opening the door and beconing her to follow him.

\"I wasn\'t afraid. I trust you, and I know even in that form, you will not hurt me on purpose.\" She smiled softly, then blushed slightly when he noticed she hadn\'t been eating. Walking over, she stood next to him, rubbing her head slightly. \"I\'m afraid old habits die hard. I\'m used to going days without food.\" Admitting to him, as she stepped forward, and out of her room, going towards the kitchen to get herself something to eat.

He grinned a little, nodding. \"Ah.. i know.. dont worry, the longer you are here, im sure i will turn you into a cute little plump woman\" He teased her, wrapping his arm around her waist and raising a hand over her head to grasp a glass for her. Anna, who seemed never to sleep, had prepared a fine breakfast of flapjacks and bacon for her, of course in a small quantitly, the little wolf pup seemed egar for his own meal.

Kakurine nodded a thanks to Anna, before sitting down, eating the breakfast set out for her. She could feel Hiku pawing at her leg, and she looked down, \"Oh, Hiku wants to be fed as well.\" She chuckled slightly, patting his head, before finishing up her breakfast, cleaning up after herself. Walking back, she got Hiku something to eat as well, kneeling down and stroking his head as she fed the little pup, a small grin on her face.

He smiled adoringly at her as she fed the small wolf, who lapped up whatever meal was put infront of him, wagging his tail and licking his muzzle, looking up for more. \"Dont overfeed him now\" He said softly, bending down to Hiku, looking at him thoughtfully. \"Hmm... i can still smell his mothers blood, this pup needs a bath, desperately\" he murmured, noticing that it proably hadnt picked up any cleaning habits from its mother, and to erase any link to a more wild life was probably best, he didnt want the full grown Hiku to be turning on the hand that fed him.

\"Well then, let\'s just clean our little puppy up, shall we?\" She asked Hiku, as she gently picked him up into her arms, poking his nose gently. \"Now, now, you don\'t want to become overweight.\" She teased the wolf pup, before heading up to the bathtub, setting up some warm water for the pup, with a bit of protest from him. \"Hiku, this will only take a moment if you stay still enough.\" Kakurine set the pup gently into the water, kneeling by the tub as she began to clean his fur out softly.

Alexander chuckled as she coddled the little animal, glad she had something to keep her entertained, and he could train him properly to be protective of his owners, of he failed to be present at any time. He looked to anna softly, the coldness between them only seemed to grow at times like this, kakurines absense only leaveing them to thier own devices. He opened his mouth to say something, but was stopped by her sharp response. \"Dont Alexander. Im just glad you didnt hurt her... like you did me.\"

Kakurine giggled slightly, as if she were a child again, while her hands worked on cleaning the now happy Hiku, his fur now clean of the blood that had been on him. \"Here we go.\" Taking Hiku out of the water, she wrapped a towel around him, sitting on her knees as she dried his fur, a couple of playfull barks leaving him. Cleaning up the room, she took Hiku downstairs, him still being bundled up in a towel as she dried him, soon facing Alexander and smiling again. \"There, he\'s all clean now.\" Kakurine stated happily. \"But now I think I need to change clothing.\" Part of her nightgown was a bit wet from Hiku splashing ocassionally. She turned to head back into her room.

He turned from the intense gaze that Anna had been giving him, forcing a smile and looking to the pup, bundled up like a babe in Kakurines arms. \"Very good, he seems much more contented.\" He mentioned, noticing Kakurines wet self, he grinned devilishly, but decided not to act on his lust at the moment. He watched the little wolf run around, trying to dry himself as Kakurine changed, he grinned, seating himself in his favorite chair infront of the fire.

Finding a navy dress, she slipped into it, now used to wearing different types of clothing. Her wings adjusted to wearing things like this now, moving out of the way easily, stretching out and shaking themselves while she smoothed the gown down, before heading down to see Alexander again, seeing him by the fire in his chair. Walking over, she sat down next to him, watching as Hiku settled himself down to take a nap. Smiling back up at Alexander, she turned slightly and asked, \"How are you feeling?\"

He smiled, pulling her close into his lap, liking to feel her weight on him, knowing she was there, knowing he could protect her. \"Im fine, How are you my little one?\" He asked softly, twirling a peice of her hair in his fingers. You look lovely tonight my darling.. like im looking at you with new eyes...\" He muttered, knowing that in a way, he was. A sigh passed his lips, holding her hand softly in his. \"Im so worried for your safety my darling.. what if im not there to protect you?\"

\"I am fine as well.\" She smiled, and blushed slightly. \"Thank you, love...\" Her eyes lingered up at his face, as she laid her head on his shoulder slightly. \"Do not worry, Alexander... You\'ll protect me well, I know you will, no matter the situation. And even if you\'re not here, I will protect myself as well...\" Her hand lightly ran down his chest, fingers feeling the muscles on him with her slender fingers.

He smiled, feeling her fingers fondling his shirt and chest slightly, he grinned, watching the dainty digits, eyeing her sculptiously. \"You know what I do remember though? Desiring you.. above anything else...\" He teased, nuzzling against her throat lovingly, holding her little body close to his.

She smiled, and chuckled slightly. \"Of course...You were talking about making love to me all day and all night, before you changed back.\" She still fondled with his shirt and chest, her fingers almost teasingly stroking him. Her head laid on his chest, as she raised her eyes to look up at him with a smile on her face. \"Unfortenatly, you went through the pain before we even started...\" Snuggling closer, she looked at the fire nearby, before back up at him, that constant glint of affection showing in her eyes.

A devilish smirk came to his lips, feeling her hands grasp at him slightly, teasing his eyes and senses. \"Oh... really? Well, i am quite the devil in that form...\" He grinned, looking down to her lovingly, he pulled her up slightly, seating her on his lap with one leg on either side of him, he watched her wings as they opened slightly with the new space... how he adored those wings, thier texture, thier color... he pulled himself up slightly, pressing his lips to her collar bone, before nuzzling his lips over hers teasingly, letting thier breaths mingle. \"But i sure know how to keep myself... and others... entertained.\"

Kakurine let out a small chuckle, tilting her head back slightly as he brushed his lips on her flesh. \"Yes, you do know how to keep everyone entertained...one way...or another...\" Smiling, she brushed her lips across Alexander\'s neck, then his chin, her warm breath cascading across him gently. The large wings on her back stretched out slightly, the light they catched from the flames causing them to sparkle slightly in their bright silver color, as she ran her hands over his arms.

He kissed her tenderly, she velvety softness of her lips causing a slight discomfort within his trousers. He continued his loving caress over her lips, pulling her closer to him, wraping strong arms around her waist. \"I love you so..\" He mumbled softly, pulling the shoulders of her dress down slightly, kissing her smooth shoulders tenderly, watching her wings as the mesmurized him.

A soft moan left her lips, as pressed her lips to his jawline, trailing them up to his lips, then forehead gently. Her warm breath gently fell on his face, as her body got closer, her wings gently flexing slightly, still sending shimmering sparkles of light in all directions. \"I love you so much, Alexander...\" She said softly, kissing him on his chest, before raising her eyes up to him. \"And I will always love you, forever, until the day I die...\" She whispered against his skin, smiling.

He let out a tiny groan, hearing her words of love, making him mad with desire for her. He pulled her up easily, walking in the direction of his room, holding her up by her thighs, legs wrapped around his waist softly. \"I want to show you just how much i love you...\" He muttered against her neck, kicking the door open slowly, shutting it behind him, a devilish grin on his lips as he laid her back against the sheets, removing his shirt quickly and attaching his lips to hers.

Kakurine reached up, and laid a hand gently on his shoulders as their kiss became passionate, her heartbeat quickening once more to the speed arousal seemed to bring to her. Another moan left her mouth, which was still pressed to Alexander\'s lips, her fingers stroking through his hair and her wings stretching out to drape comfortably over the bed. \"Then show me, my love...show me just how much you love me...and I will show you as well...\" Kakurine whispered softly against his mouth.

He growled wantingly against her lips, nipping them lustfully between his teeth, tugging on her soft lips as he watched her. He became somewhat varacious, pulling off her dress swiftly, kissing softly between her small breasts, fondling each one in his hand. He released them from his grasp only for a moment, undoing his trousers and leaving them there for her to remove, licking up her throat adoringly, sucking on her throat and making the blood rise to the flesh, causing his lust to skyrocket.

\"Alexander...\" Kakurine\'s voice shook with a moan of lust, as she allowed him to do as he wished with her. Her hands were busy massaging his arms, and shoulders, slowly trailing down to the trousers that they both wanted to have removed. However, she was teasing, wanting to make them both more aroused, as her hands stroked his abdomen. Her small body shivering softly in lust, she pulled down his trousers, and casted them aside, giving him a soft, yet passionate kiss on his chin.

He growled more wantingly in his throat, his eyes flecked with the darkness of lust, his animalistic side somewhat more visible in such moments. He pulled her out of any undergarments, leaning back and viewing her full nudity, a lustful smirk on his face. \"Your beautiful..\" He mumbled softly, taking one knee in each hand and parting them slowly, watching her femininity become visible, making him gasp in lust, the scent making him varacious with need. Pulling himself low, he licked at her wonderful essence, tasting it over and over again, never satisfied.

Gasping slightly, Kakurine twisted and withered from his act on her, her breathing speeding up as she stroked his hair a bit. \"A-Alexander...\" She breathed out, becoming more and more aroused as time went on. Her fingers curled slightly, before she slid her hands down to his shoulders once more, gripping them gently. Continuing to wirthe, her wings shifting in lust, and her back arching forward a bit to her pleasure.

He loved to hear her moan, saying his name and making him more aroused than he thought possible, he continued to lick softly, tenderly, trying to drink her dry.. but no matter the amount, she still remained soft, glistening, and totally allurning. He looked up, licking his lips, wondering if he had tortured her enough. He grinned wickedly, feeling his animal take him over slowly, he grasped her thighs, turning her onto her stomach and lifting her slightly to her knees and hands. He watched her from behind, growling deeply with need at her current position, grounding his tongue back into her intimacy, raising her to that point again.

Kakurine tried hard to stay up in the position Alexander had put her in, but her lust was rising so much she could barely keep herself up, her arms shaking slightly, her moans sounding loudly in the room. Her hands were gripping the sheets underneathe her, as her body shivered in lust with each motion from his tongue. Breathing turning into panting, her wings flapped once as she arched again, moaning out, \"Alexander...my love, Alexander...\"

He smriked, noticing her weaken, he rubbed her arms softly, lowering her down to her elbows and forearms. He kissed her cheek softly, leaning over her back. \"If i get to rough.. tell me..\" He muttered in a growling voice, still managing some level of control. He kissed a trail softly down her back, pulling her open slightly and pushing himself within her, gliding slowly so not to hurt her,she was so much tinier than he, her small passage making him gasp out desperately as she squeezed around him. \"Uhh... Kaku..\" He groaned, beginning his soft, gentle thumping within her body, growling out his need for her.

Letting out a shuddering gasp, Kakurine closed her eyes in pleasure, her wings occasionally flapping as Alexander surged in her. Now that she was not laying down, her wings constantly shifted and moved, beating up and down and flexing slightly, as if she was trying to fly but was unable to leave the ground, or her position. \"Alexander....\" She moaned slightly, tilting her back, her hands clenching and pulling the sheet up a couple of inches.

He Roared in pleasure, fangs barred as he continued his torrent against her small body, hearing thier bodies smack against eachother, the rustling of her large wings as he growled deeply of her name, taking in her scent, is vampire instincts keeping him in line. He rolled his tongue over her back, tasting her flesh that was lightly flect with thier sweat, as if claiming her all over again. The sweet pitch of her voice was making him wild with need, holding onto her thighs and pulling her little form back against him, over and over again.

She shivered and arched back when she felt his warm tongue against her back. \"Alexander......Alexander....\" She moaned over and over again, clenching the sheet tighter as she panted, her breathing speeding up greatly once more. \"I love you so much...\" She gasped out, and gripped the sheets even tighter, feeling her climax building up quickly as he continued to move inside of her. Murmuring his name repeatidly, she arched back once more.

Alexanders composure was all but not there, his groans had turned to roars of lust, growling like an beast as he thrust himself into her small body over and over. He growled, longing to see her face, pulling himself out only momentarily, prolonging thier climax as well. He rolled her over with his grip on her thighs, roughly, but carefully, as to not harm her. He leaned over her diminutive form, nuzzling against her throat as he pressed her knees on either side of her against the bed, pushing back within her moist folds, resuming his love for her. He wasnt sure how much longer he could last, the sight of her innocent visage moaning out his name was detremental to his control.

Kakurine gasped at his re-entry, and it sent her almost over the edge. \"Alexander...my love!\" She cried out, gripping his shoulders, as she arched forward, moaning right in his ear loudly, as her muscles tightend in her climax. Crying out, her voice shaking, her head flung back in pleasure, laying against the bed, as she gasped out, \"Alexander...oh, my love...Alexander, I love you...I love you so much...\" Opening her eyes to look at him, trying to slow down her breath.

He groaned out desperatelty, feeling her tightening around him, which brought him to his own fitful climax. He released her legs from his grasps, leaning on his hands on either side of her head, he smiled down to her, breathing heavily as he kissed her parted lips tenderly. \"I love you as well my wonderful, beautiful little one...\" He murmured adoringly, caresssing her waist softly, waiting untill he went flacid and pulling out of her, kissing her throat softly amist it all. He sighed softly, moving to pull the sheets back on thier bed, lifting her form slowly and resting her within the warmth of the sheets. He quickly joined her, pulling her close protectively, whispering \"i love you\"s as he fell asleep.

\"I love you, too...\" Came Kakurine\'s soft, sleepy voice, as she snuggled close, pressing her body to his, falling asleep with a very soft sigh. She loved joining with Alexander, knowing that both of them had a wild passion for eachother, and it felt wonderful to be satisfied before she would go to sleep. Her dreams filled with when she first met Alexander, how he took her from the market, and how they fell in love with eachother. Feeling Alexander\'s strong, warm arms around her, she burried her face in his chest as she slept.

Alexander slept comfortably, feeling much more content when he had her close. His arms were kept around her the entire night, refusing to release her, vampire instinct still burning within him. The night eventually came, as he awoke with the stars dotting the sky, he slowly let his eyes open, smiling to find Kakurine still in his Grasps. He kissed her forehead softly, watching her sleep for a few more moments.

Kakurine slept peacefully for a few more minutes, before shifting in his arms, looking up to see his face. She yawned a bit, her wings stretching out to their full length. \"Hello, love.\" She said, as she woke up, sitting up from the bed. Gazing up at his face, she smiled, and kissed his forehead. \"Did you sleep alright? You wore me out again.\" She teased him, kissing his nose softly.

He chuckled adoringly, raising a hand to mingle within her hair. \"Yes.. i do have a way of keeping my lovers satisfied..\" He teased with a smile. \"And yes, i slept fine.. you seemed mighty comfortable if I do say so myself\" He murmured softly, smirking as he pulled her close. \"I was wondering if you wanted to join me while I go collect from the tenants\" He asked softly, the weather had improved much since the last round, and they wouldnt need to bundle up in the warming spring.

Kakurine smiled. \"Of course.\" She said, kissing his forehead once more, before trying to rise from the bed, only to be trapped by his arm, still. She laughed slightly and said, \"Well, if I am to go with you again, I better cover myself. I can\'t very well walk outside looking like this.\" Gesturing to her unclothed body, she put her hands on his arm which was still around her, making her chuckles still.

He grinned, looking over her nudity, giving her a perverted grin. \"No, i suppose not...\" He teased, releasing her from his grasps. He pulled on his familiar clothing, along with toting the record book to see how much people owed him.

Smiling, she said, \"I\'ll be back in a moment.\" rising from the bed, and sliding out. Her wings wrapping around her, she walked out of Alexander\'s room, and entered her room, looking through her closet for some clothing. Smiling, she pulled out another dress, a deep red with a bit of silver mixed in it, matching her hair, eyes, and wings. Slipping it on her, stretching her wings out, she brushed her hair down with her fingers, before leaving the room, heading back to see Alexander. \"How do I look?\" She asked with a smile.

He smirked, having not really seen the dress before, something that proably belonged to one of his past victims... he shuddered at the thought. Though showing none of thier to Kakurine, he smiled, kissing her softly. \"Absolutely Beautiful, as always\" He said with a grin, beconning her to follow him downstairs, he passed her the cloak he had given her in the very beginning of her comming to his house, taking his own and pulling it around his shoulders. \"Come come\" He teased her adoringly, opening the door and waiting patiently for her.

Kakurine chuckled to herself, putting the cloak on her, letting it drape open, resting on her shoulders. \"Yes, let\'s go, shall we?\" She stepped outside, and looked around, taking in a deep breath of the night air. Loving the feeling of being outside, she stepped forward a bit, before taking his hand, waiting for him to take lead. \"It\'s lovely out tonight.\" She noted, staring up at the star-decorated sky. Her wings flexed softly under her cloak, before she turned slightly, smiling up at Alexander.

He grinned, looking down to her, she looked lovely in the dress, he had to admit. \"Indeed... Fine night to go harrass my tennants\" He teased, having never been demanding about getting paid, just stern, he didnt want them thinking he could be walked over. They walked together for sometime, Alexander had decided to take the scenic route. He stopped momentairly, looking behind him. \"Do you hear that?\" He said outloud, listening again. It sounded something like barking. He grinned, realizing then who it was. \"Ah, seems Hiku has decided to come.\" He said with a smile, and as if almost on cue, hiku appeared out of the wookwork, camboring up against Kakurines leg. Alexander chuckled lightly.

Giggling, Kakurine crouched down, and picked Hiku up into her arms. \"Well, well. Hello, Hiku.\" She stroked the wolf pup adoringly, scratching behind his ears, before setting him down, watching as he bounded around their legs. Getting a couple of licks on the hand as she patted his head, she soon straightend up, looking up at Alexander. \"I suppose he wants to enjoy the night with us.\" She teased, letting Alexander lead once more.

He grinned, nodding. \"Yes.. he is a wolf, im sure he missed the wilderness a little.\" He said softly, watching the little pup sniff the ground here and there, then racing after them. It wasnt long untill they reached the first house, He grinned, walking up to the front step with Kakurine close by. He could hear Richard already clamboring with the lock, opening the door slowly, he looked down, seeing the small pup and grinning. \"Alexander, Sir, if you were hoping to scare me into paying, you might have wanted to bring a bigger dog\" He laughed lightly, Alexander rolled his eyes. \"Oh Richard, you know quite well that I do not need a dog to scare my tennants, i do so quite well on my own\" He cocked an eyebrow, Richard nodded and waltzed inside for a moment, comming out with a small pouch, filled with his pay for the month. \"Very good. Thank you muchly, ill be back in 31 days.\" He said softly, dealing with that man was like shooting fish in a barell

A slight giggle came from Kakurine when she heard that, as the pup clambered at her leg again, and she picked him up. \"You\'re not all that scary, now are you?\" She teased Hiku, who licked her face slightly, and she laughed, before setting him down. Allowing the small pup to venture a small distance away, she turned to Alexander, smiling up at him. \"One day he might grow out of this cute stage, but he\'ll still be my little Hiku.\"

Alexander smiled down to Kakurine, grinning and messing her hair lovingly. \"Yes, then we will see just who he frightens\" He teased, watching him turn around and bark at them to follow up the winding path. Thier path continued slowly, admiring the surroundings, he breathed deeply of the newly budding spruce trees, a smile on his lips. He loved the outdoors almost as much as Hiku, it seemed. They eventually came upon the second house, he pulled out a pencil, noticing how much the small family owed, erasing it and putting in a substantially smaller sum. He looked to Kakurine, blushing slightly. \"Im an old softy\" He said with a grin, knocking on the door.

\"I\'m glad that you are.\" She said with a grin, kissing him lightly on the cheek as she waited. Hiku barked slightly, sniffing nearby trees, and pawing at any flowers or plants he found. Kakurine couldn\'t help but to smile and laugh at the little wolf pup\'s antics, the playful nature making her think of the wolf she had before she was taken in as a slave. Her mind wondered if he was still alive, but she doubted it, since he was full grown when she bonded with him.

The door opened slowly, The small, plump woman seemed almost relieved to see Alexander. \"Oh. sir.. please, come in out of the cold\" She beconed the two within the warm confines of the small house, which smelt heavenly of cinnamon and apples, she must have been baking. \"How much do we owe this month? Im sorry, but we might be a little late on part of our payment...\" She mumbled softly, Alexander smiled, showing her the sum, which by his calculations would leave them with enough to keep them happy. She paid him, and as they were about to leave, she stopped him, beconing him to the kitchen. He rose and eyebrow, looking back to kakurine, motioning to her ears, signaling for her to listen closely for anything that sounded odd, though he doubted it, uprisings were happening more and more often. He walked past her three children, the oldest one smiled up to him expectantly, he merely smiled, leaving her somwhat dissapointed. She shot a glare to Kakurine, huffing and walking back to the fireplace.

Kakurine looked back at the children, and smiled when she saw the two boys Alexander had told her about. He was right, they were a bit adorable. It made her envy the fact she didn\'t have a family, since her parents died when she was very young, and she had no siblings or realitives of her own. Kakurine stayed near Alexander, then heard a small bark behind her, Hiku running into the house, wagging his tail happily as he sniffed the children, then bounded at Kakurine. Laughing, she said, \"Hiku! You can\'t stay still for a second, can you?\"

The sound of Alexanders scoff could be heard within, Along with Hiku\'s barking and the two boys mauling the animal adoringly. The eldest seemed unninterested, walking into the Kitchen with her mother and Alexander. \"Ms. Hogin, You know quite well that that is completely out of the question.\" He said sternly, but compassionately. \"Please Alexander, There is nothing more that I can do for her. Jacob and his men have been here before, and they wont stop untill they have her. She needs protection, And etiquite. Dont lie to me, I know your housekeeper was once a teacher.\" Alexander growled slightly, She had done her homework, and he worried for thier saftey, Jacob was more trouble than he was worth. \"Fine. Ill come back to get her on my way back. Tell her to pack lightly.\" He said quickly, turning from them and motioning for Kkaurine to come outside.

Kakurine knelt to Hiku. \"Sorry boys, it\'s time for Hiku to go.\" The small pup jumped into her arms, as if he had been trained to do so, and she smiled, nuzzling him playfully, before stepping out with Alexander. Her ears had been twitching occasionaly, and she told him, \"I heard...\" very softly in a whisper. Of course, with her sensitive hearing from her pointed ears, of course she could hear even the softest sound a few feet away, as if it was loud and right next to her.

He sighed. \"I really think its a bad idea, but im sure Anna can keep her in line.. though i dont know how im even going to convince Anna to help her.\" He sighed, rubbing his temple. \"I think im getting to soft hearted, i blame you\" He teased. \"She\'ll only be there for a few months im sure. Smarten her up a little and get her off that mean streak, shell easily find a nice husband to keep her happy.\" He said softly as they walked down the road.

Poking his nose slightly, she said, \"Well I\'m glad you\'re getting soft hearted. It makes it so much easier to love you.\" She kissed him lightly, and walked beside him, gazing up at the sky. \"I never did like that Jacob character...the first time I saw him, I knew I didn\'t like him...\" She murmured, narrowing her eyes slightly, before lowing her gaze to Hiku, happily bounding around their feet, occasionally nipping at the hem of Kakurine\'s dress, making her chuckle slightly.

He sighed softly, agreeing completely. \"Yes.. Jacob is a creul Character, and hes got it out for ever woman on the earth, he runs some horrid brothel out of his basement im sure.\" Alexander rolled his eyes, knowing that was a wee bit off the mark, maybe it wasnt in his basement. Alexander smirked to himself, Holding Kakurine close. \"I Want you to stay close while were there, hes a cunning individual.\" Alexander said softly to her as they walked up the stairs of the mans home, knocking on the door and waiting patiently. The door opened, another one of Jacobs little pawns answered the door, a tall girl, stinny but strong with bright red hair. \"Is your master at home?\" He asked softly, she nodded, walking off to get him.

\"I\'ll stay near.\" She whispered to Alexander, stepping closer, going somewhat half-way behind him, so she felt protected. Her cloak flared in the slightest gust of wind, uncovering part of her overly large wings. The cloak was not quite big enough to conceal them, anyways. The silvery feathers shining in the moonlight, she remained firm being half-behind Alexander, watching the door, barely wanting to stay there much longer. The sooner they left Jacob\'s place, the better.

The tall man came to the door, a slight glimmer of insolence in his eyes as he noticed Kakurine hidden slightly Behind her poweful lover. \"Ah... That time again Alexander? OR have you come to give me your little winglie? He smirked, glancing to Kakurines wings with a devilish grin. Alexander growled warningly, only gaining more of a grin from Jacob. \"Not likely, its payment time, Taxes have gone up, and so has payment, But I think you will make out fine, slavedriver\" He spat menacingly, noticing the small females that seemed to poke thier heads around the corner as they heard someone disgracing thier master, like beaten animals. He showed him the sum, Jacob\'s defiant grin remaining on his lips. \"Fine, one moment, Bloodsucker\" He rolled back off his tongue, Alexander hissed slightly. \"Want to find out?\" He challanged slightly, but the cowardly Jacob would never do battle with Alexander, he simply walked away to collet his dues.

Kakurine narrowed her eyes at Jacob, a dim crimson glow coming from her eyes. She let out a sigh to hide her deep disgust for the man, softening back up. Her wings had gone tense, the feathers ruffling, as if she was an angry swan, especially at the sight of the poorly treated girls that her eyesight picked up. She appeared to be glad that they were about ready to leave, her feathers starting to smooth back down to normal, as she half stepped back from Alexander to get ready for him to turn and leave.

The Sack of gold coins hit his chest with a thud, then landing in his hands He looked to the small girls, frowning slightly, he motioned to them, gaining a tiny glimmer of a smile from the closest girl, Before hearing Jacob call from within.
\"If you want one, Bloodsucker, you will have to pay, just like any other meal.\" Alexander had just about enough of this, turning his back on the door and slamming it behind him. \"That.. baster of a man..\" He growled, not knowing how he managed to make him so rilled up. He let out a breath, sighing softly. \"Ah well.. best go pick up Ms. Hogins little girl.. I cant even remember her name\" He though with a frown, he was usually so good with names He walked slowly, holding Kaku close to him, kissing her forehead protectively.

Kakurine smiled at him, and said, \"Well, at least we don\'t have to see him for a while.\" She sighed in relief, gazing at the ground for a moment. \"He actually makes me angry, just seeing him and hearing his voice...\" She shivered slightly, \"Not even my first master was as cruel as him. And he\'s the one who broke me down, so to speak.\" She gestured to the scars that adorn her back, shivering again off of the memory of the whips. Leather whips, chain whips...He had them all.

Alexander frowned slightly, rubbing his hand over her back tenderly. \"How anyone could lay a harming hand upon you I dont know...\" He smiled softly, running his fingertips along the curve of her slight waist. They continued thier little jaunt, Hiku close behind them, Barking playfully as if he would never run out of energy. They came closely to the house, already seeing Ms. Hogins, her and her oldest daughters bright head of blonde curls easily seen from the window, they dashed from it quickly when they noticed him comming, opening the door, where she stood in a pale blue dress, nothing fancy, he could see the stiches her mother had obviously put in it tenderly. He plump woman was wimpering slightly. He smiled. \"Dont worry, we will treat her well, and Anna will.. surely teach her everything she needs to know\" Alexander said, hoping it didnt sound to false, he still had to talk Anna into this little situation. He beconed the girl to follow, she did so, head hanging low, he felt bad for her, removing his own cloak and wrapping it around her, taking the bag of her megar bellongings and slinging it over his shoulder.

Kakurine nodded her head in a good-bye, as she walked next to Alexander, looking at the girl. She didn\'t say anything for the moment, seeming lost in thoughts, her crimson gaze raising to the sky once more. They fell on the stars that twinkled so brightly, and she let out a sigh. Hiku bounded to the girl, sniffing her, and barking slightly, as he pawed at her. Kakurine snapped out of her gaze and random thoughts, watching Hiku and she smiled.

The walk home remained somewhat silent, Alexander clinging to Kakurine, And hiku keeping the girl company as they walked. Eventually reaching the house, he opened the door quickly, feeling the warmth of the fireplace connect with his cold flesh. He sighed slightly. \"Uh.. Kaku... Keep the young one company, and please, ask her her name.\" He motioned, stepping off to the Kitchen hopping Anna took things well... There was a few moments of Silence, then a sudden \" Surely you Joke Alexander!\" He frowned a little, continuing to try and convince her.

\"I suppose I should introduce myself.\" Kakurine said, with a bow to the girl. \"My name is Kakurine.\" She was not the most formal being, but this was what she was taught, and how she was brought up as a slave. Offering a small smile, she looked down. \"It seems Hiku has taken a liking to you.\" Indeed he had, for he was bounding around the girl, barking slightly and pawing at her. \"Might I ask for your name? Since you\'ll be staying here, it would be terrible if we do not know eachother.\"

The girl sighed softly, rolling her eyes to Kakurine. \"Summer\" She said softly, pulling the little pup into her lap and petting it thoughtfully. \"I dont know why my mother has sent me here, Alexander does not want me.. no one does\" She looked to the flame thoughtfully. \"Life with Jacob surely wouldnt have been that bad\"

Kakurine frowned slightly. \"Summer, you\'ve never seen life as a slave, have you?\" Shaking her head, she said, \"Let me show you something.\" She turned around, stretching her wings out, showing the long, silvery scars that covered her back. \"Do you see these scars?\" She asked, turning back around. \"I was taken in as a slave when I was younger. And my first master would whip me, since I did not know just how to act. Do you see how small I am? How scrawny? I\'m not as bad as I used to be, you could see my ribs, because I was almost never fed.\" Sighing, she looked at the girl. \"And those girls that I\'ve seen with Jacob...they\'re about ten times as worse. They\'re torchered daily to my guesses, and you rarely would see a smile on their face.\"

The girl looked somewhat shocked, blushing deeply at her own ignorance, and shying away from the impressions on Kakurines back. \"Tortured?\" She repeated, swallowing deeply. Her vivid green eyes turned to Kakurine slowly. \"And what about you now? How has Alexander treated you?\" She asked, nuzzling the little pup close to her. She was obviously nervous and frightened, even more so now after Kakurines little session with her.

\"I feel lucky to have Alexander as my master.\" She said, watching Hiku lick Summer\'s hand, and bark a couple of times. \"I\'m fed on a daily bases, though I sometimes choose for myself to not eat. I know I\'m foolish, but I am not used to recieving food so often, even though it has been a little over a month since I\'ve come here.\" Staring at the floor for a moment, she slowly raised her eyes. \"And I\'m not considered a \'meal\', anymore. Unless Alexander has gone a while without feeding, then I offer myself willingly. Though he says there will be a stop to that.\"

Summer Froze slightly, hearing her mention Alexanders vampirisim. She let the little pup go, crawling somewhat closer to Kaku, whispering softly. \"Ive heard that he trasforms into a monster at the full moon and feeds on whores in the village\" she said in a small voice, looking to the kitchen and then back to Kakurine. \"Is it true? Many people in the town speak of it\" she murmured, intensity in her eyes. \"Is he allergic to garlic? Can you kill him with a steak and holy water?\" She cotinued with such trivial questions of a teen, whos only informant was probably her mother.

\"Uhm...I don\'t really know about that. But I wouldn\'t kill him...no...\" She shook her head. \"I don\'t know what he\'s allergic to, either.\" Looking at her, she said, \"Yes, it is true, he does transform at the full moon. But do not worry too much, he\'s changed, so says Anna, since I\'ve come. He\'s controling himself more and more. Though, that doesn\'t mean you should be careless. If you need to, you can stay in my room with me, and we can wait it out.\"

With that, Alexander came into the living room, looking a little flustered. \"well.. seems you will be taking lessons with Anna in the evenings... As soon as the sun goes down. And I dont want you wandering about the grounds without supervision during the night, but you can visit your mother anytime you desire durning the day, namely because we will be asleep, if you do not wish to change your sleeping patterns.\" He said softly to her, sternly but kindly, somewhat fatherlike. His eyes turned to Kakurine. \"Im appointing you watcher during the day, with your keen ears and wings, if any emergency occurs\" He smiled adoringly, kissing her sofltly on the forehead. \"Im off to bed... your room is to the left of Kakurines, mine is too the right. If you need anything, dont hesitate to ask...\" He said, a slight yawn in his voice as he trasped upthe stairs.

\"And don\'t worry.\" Kakurine added to Summer, watching as Alexander went up the stairs. She turned around, and looked at her. \"My hearing is very sensitive. If you stifle a scream, I will hear it. So if anyone comes after you, just make any noise, and I\'ll get help, or come to see what is wrong.\" Kakurine felt Hiku jumping at her leg, and she picked him up. \"If you need anything durring the day, feel free to come and get me. My sleeping pattern is already accustom to being up and awake at night, so I\'ll stay up for about an hour longer.\"

Summer nodded to Kakurine, smiling softly and walking up the stairs, she looked around her room, amazed with the wealth that Alexander had posessed. She opened her closet, smelling the fresh scents of morning and lavender, pulling out a soft sleeping gown, nothing that she had ever seen before, nor possessed. Pulling it on, she looked to the bed, jumping ontop of it with a small giggle as she sunk into the down of the blankets, before crawling within them. No one crowding her bed with her... she was amazed to say the least, flabbergasted with everything around her. Blowing out the candle on her bedside, she turned over, falling into a comfortable sleep.
Alexander grinned, walking from his room to Kakurines in the time just before dawn, knowing she was probably still awake, he knocked gently on her door, hoping she didnt think thier sleeping together was suddenly innapropriate.

Smiling, Kakurine opened up her door, and looked at him. \"Hello, love.\" She said softly, her ears twitching a bit. \"...I must say, it feels as if I finally have a family...\" She suddenly noted, stepping aside from the door to allow Alexander to walk in if he wished. Waiting a moment, she stepped forth, and embraced him in an affectionate hug. \"Thank you for taking me from the slave market...\" Kissing him softly on the cheek, she gazed up at his face.

He seemed somewhat suprised, chuckling lightly and pulling his arms around her slight waist. \"Oh? I believe i have you to thank my little one... you saved me in more ways than you know..\" He whispered softly against her throat, nuzzling his lips over her adoringly. \"Shall we stay in your room tonight? In case Summer needs something..\" He murmured, already picking her up bridal style, kissing her softly. He kicked the door closed behind him, lowering her to the bed with a devilish grin. \"Would be very innapropriate for the little one to hear us wouldnt it...\" He teased her adoringly, grazing his fangs over her collarbone.

Letting out a happy sigh, she kissed him gently, and said, \"It would be innapropriate for the young one to hears us, yes...Unless we are very quiet. But I don\'t think it is in our power to stay quiet for long.\" Chuckling, she teased him right back, stroking his hair with her slender fingers, as she looked at him. A smile remained curled on her lips. \"I suppose we saved eachother.\" Smiling, she added, \"And I am glad we have.\"

He smiled affectionately, agreeing fully. \"Indeed... Best we just sleep tonight, let her get settled in before she starts hearing things she probably does not desire\" He laughed lightly, pulling back the thick comforter and snuggling her beneath it, himself crawling in closely to her, wrapping his arms around her protectively. \"I love you my little one...\" He whispered softly, breathing deeply of her scent.

\"I love you too...\" She whispered back, and closed her eyes, taking a deep breath, before letting it out, as she started to drift off into sleep. She felt so much happier here, than when she was in the market. Here, she had what she considered to be a family. Anna, being almost like an older sister to her, and Alexander, being her lover. As morning came, Kakurine rested peacefully, her wings soft against Alexander\'s body, laying over him lightly.

He held her body closely to his, grazing his fingers along her spineline subconsiously. As the evening broke the sunlight, he awoke slowly, not really wanting to rise. He flet direly hungry that morning, and knew that if he didnt feed soon he would become ill. Sighing softly, he rose from the sheets, not wanting to disturb Kakurine just yet, as she looked so adorable while she slept. With a grin, he walked to his room swiftly to pull on a clean change of clothing, walking to the bathroom and cleaning himself up slightly, shaving, etc. He walked downstairs, looking more finely groomed than he had in a bit, his familiar low tail tied into his hair, everpresent fringe falling into his eyes. He greeted Anna with a smile, as she fed Summer and prepared breakfast for Kakurine. \"Alright girl, as soon as you eat, its up to that bath, i dont want lice in this house and im sure from sleeping on that straw mattress you have them.\" Anna said sternly, Summer turned and pouted at Alexander. He raised his hands in defeat. \"Dont look to me, she runs this household.\" He teased anna with a grin.

Kakurine shifted awake with a yawn, and sat up from her bed, stretching out. Brushing her hair down with her fingers as she always did, she rose from the mattress, going into her closet to change into some sutible clothing. Pulling out another dark dress, and slipping into it. She had grown fond of wearing dark-colored dresses, and she went down the stairs, into the kitchen. Smiling at Alexander, she turned to Summer as she sat down. \"So, did you sleep alright?\"

He smiled when he saw her, And so did Hiku, who came racing from his usual place infront of the fire, bounding up to her leg looking for his breakfast. He looked somewhat tired, and Anna, being the nitpicker she naturally was, noticed it first. Walking over to him, she took his cheeks into her hands, examining his features. \"You have waited to long to feed again Alexander.. your aging yourself a year a day when you do that...\" She murmured, her worry always apparent. Summer chewed in silence, still a bit unnerved to be living with Vampires, even ones so civil. \"I dont know why you dont hunt with me. You wouldnt have to worry...\" Alexander chuckled. \"Yes.. have we not experinced that before?\" He warned, she let him go, blushing slightly. \"Indeed.. well, i Want to to feed tonight, on what I dont care...\"

\"Alexander...\" Kakurine let out a sigh, teasing slightly. \"Must you forget to feed yourself?\" Smiling at Hiku, she rose and got him his breakfast as well, since he was her responsability. Giving him a pat on the head, she sat back down, and started to eat the breakfast that was set out for her. \"And you say I have not beeing eating. You have no room to talk, Alexander.\" She smiled at him, still a bit teasing, as she returned to continuing eating.

He sighed softly. \"Oy, what have I done to myself, living with a bunch of badgering women...\" He grinned, walking away from them for the moment. \"Im going out the the arching grounds. Give me a holler if you need me\" He said, giving them a costomary solute as he shut the door. He pulled up his bow and quiver, taking a few practice shots. Deer were in season, and he was hungry for something substantial.
Inside, Summer waiting untill the door was shut to start her questions. \"How long has it been since hes eaten? Does he go into some bloodthirsty rage if he doesnt eat?\" She asked curiously scarfing down a peice of bacon as she looked to Kakurine.

\"About three days. Maybe longer, I\'m not too sure.\" She looked at her, as she finished up her breakfast, cleaning up after herself. Putting a hand on her shoulder, she said, \"Don\'t worry. Yes, Alexander is a vampire, but it doesn\'t mean he can\'t control himself. I\'ve never seen him go into a rage, but we don\'t want him to be too weak to where he cannot get his own food. If he was to be without blood, we\'d have to go hunt for him, and that may be difficult.\"

Summer cringed, wondering just what alexander considered a \"meal\" to be. Before she could get another word out, Anna hauled Her upstairs to be washed, deliced if nessisary, and dressed like someone who lived with Alexander. Hiku was determined to keep All of Kakurines Attention tonight, pulling on the hem of her dress playfully, growling and whining.
Alexander walked silently through the brush, unheard by the deer that lay resting in the herd. He grinned, raising his bow and taking aim slowly, so the bending of the oak would not arouse them. Then, like a crack of light his arrow connected with its target, the rest of the herd racing off to saftey. He grinned, kneeling down to feed on the beast while its blood was still warm.

\"Hiku, you playful pup, you.\" She teased her little wolf pup, as she picked him up, taking the dress out of his mouth. \"Behave, you.\" She pretended to put on a stern face, but merely laughed when he licked her face. \"You remind me so much of Yasashiku.\" Sighing, she stroked Hiku, before standing to walk to the door where Alexander had left out of, standing in the frame, watching him silently. She smiled, remembering how he said he would teach her to arch when the weather got warmer. Hiku struggled to get out of her grasps, but she kept petting him, not wanting to put him down for the moment.

The night dragged on, many cries out from the bathroom, as Anna Struggled with Summers wild blonde curls, trying to make her somewhat presentable. Eventually Alexander returned to the door, seeing Kakurine in the doorway, holding the little wolf pup, he got the most pleasing image of her holding a baby... but he knew that to be impossible.. Vampire children were evil and unmannagable even for vampire mothers, only knowing bloodlust and hatred for the first few years of thier lives.. he was one of them, not imaging such a fate on Kakurine for the world. He grinned, leaning down slightly to peck her on the lips, but retreating, knowing his teeth were probably stained with deerblood. He avoided her for the moment, turning to walk up the stairs to his room, bathing his face in a counter basin untill he found himself presentable. He grinned, walking down the stairs and greeting her. \"Lets try that again...\" He murmured softly, pulling her into a kiss, the little pup licking thier chins, he chuckled.

She chuckled as well, kissing him back. \"Yes, good thing you realised I probably did not want to taste your breakfast.\" Smiling, Hiku barked slightly, licking Alexander\'s face a bit, before resuming with licking Kakurine. \"Good that you listened to us and got your meal, love.\" She teased slightly, setting Hiku down to run around outside, though he did not stray far from his owners. \"Do tell me, when are you going to teach me to arch?\"

He Thought for a moment, then grinning wickedly, shrugged. \"Not sure... I think I prefer you defenseless to me...\" He teased, picking her up slightly and seating her ontop of the kitchen table. \"With a bow and arrows at your disposal, how am i possibly going to be able to sneak up on you... seduce you..\" He Chuckled wryly, teasing her adoringly. \"But then again, it will help keep that dreaded Jacob off you, so maybe arching is a good idea.. How about tomorrow night?\" He said softly, kissing her forehead softly.

Tilting her head back, she planted a kiss on his chin, and said, \"Good idea, love. It would come in handy.\" Tilting her head back down, she looked at him with her eyes. \"I used to be a fighter before I was a slave. But I trained with a sword, not a bow and arrows. Though, I\'m probably rusty on my sword-fighting skills as well.\" Kakurine rubbed her head, and laughed slightly. \"I bet you cannot imagine me holding a sword, can you?\"

He chuckled lightly, shaking his head. \"No.. not really. Though I have some skill with a rapier, a sword and thus are similar... if you desired to challange me?\" He grinned devilishly, liking the idea. \"Winner gets... whatever he or she desires..\" He suggested, holding her legs closely around his hips, making his point obvious. \"How about it?\"

She smiled, and chuckled. \"Fighting for sport? Well, I have not touched a blade in a long time, let\'s see if I\'ve lost my old spark, or if I\'m still a fighter at heart.\" She kissed him gently, before smiling happily. \"This will be interesting. Let us see if my lover is more skilled than me.\" Laughing a bit, she slid off of the table, and stood next to him.

He rose an eyebrow enticingly. \"More.. skilled? I am in certain ways...\" He teased, gripping her backside in his hand with a grin, before walking off to the living room. \"we Shall indeed see.. it had also been many a year for me, so it wont take long for me to become the victor\" He grinned wickedly, winking at her as he plopped down in his chair

\"You under estimate me, love.\" She teased him, poking his nose lightly with her finger. \"I learned to fight with a sword from my father, who was skilled and fought along side for a king. As soon as I could walk, he started to train me, so don\'t take me as such an easy target.\" Kissing him gently, she smirked. \"It hasn\'t been too long...though I am not even certain how long I\'ve been a slave, I can say that it has been a few years.\"

He smirked, walking with her to collect thier effects for this faux battle they had concocted. He was probably a wee bit over confident, but thats was Alexanders way. \"What do you prefer to work with love?\" He was with a smirk.

Laughing a bit, she said, \"Well, any kind of sword I suppose.\" Kakurine smiled at him, chuckling occasionally at the thought of how they were going to battle. It was in her nature to love to fight, but since her blood ran on the half-side, she was more peaceful than what most Winglies would have been. \"And what do you prefer, love?\" She asked, placing her hands behind her back as she walked next to him.

He grinned, motioning to a chest that had sat beside the door, mostly odd blankets and cloaks thrown upon it. He brushed them off, flicking open the latch, contianed within were two rapeiers, thin, flexible swords that were light, fast, and deadly for the most part, it weilded properly. \"Would you prefer one of these? Or something heavier... though that might give me yet another advatange..\" He partronized, but merely in the play of the situation.

\"Those will do fine.\" She said, laughing again. \"Though I trained with much heavier swords.\" She teased, poking his nose lightly, peering at the rapeiers that were inside the chest. True, she had used a heavy broadsword when she lived in the forest. But unfortenatly, that sword had probably been sold to the blackmarket by the man who caught her. \"This will be quite interesting.\" Kakurine smiled lightly.

He smirked, picking up two of them, slapping the lid down on the old brown chest. He walked closely to her, holding one of the swords out for her to take, licking her cheek devilishly. \"Only a taste of what I get when I win...\" He whispered to her with a deep chuckle, stepping back about 5 feet. He assumed a battle stance, grinning at her. \"No time like the present to take my prize...\" He laughed.

She took the sword, the light feeling of it, allowing her to twirl it a couple of times in her hand, throwing it into the air before catching the handle. \"Wow, I have gotten rusty.\" She said, laughing. \"Well, we\'ll see.\" She also got into a battle stance, one her father taught her when she was only two years old. Then again, most Winglies would have learned magic by the time they were five, so Kakurine was way behind in studying. \"Ready, love?\"

He cracked his neck slightly, giving her a nod. \"Always ready little one.\" He said softly, raising his sword only slightly, gliding it on the side of hers, down the the pommel, then pulling back rapidly. He was light on his feet, even for his size, the blade held daintly in his hand, ready to strike at any given moment. \"Carry on then, ill like you make the first strike, being the gentleman I am\" He teased, grinning wickedly.

\"Then let us begin.\" She said, and with a swift movement that seemed to unmatch how frail she looked, the blade sending a metal against metal note ringing in the air, she thrusted the blade against his, pressing against it. Her speed matched with her size, but her strength could have been underestimated by many. She was indeed stronger than she looked.

He felt her blade hit his, the familiar sound of metal on metal rang in his ears, he grinned, feeling a little resistance against his blade as he pushed against hers. \"My, we are somewhat stonger than we look... and why have I not felt this strength in other.. situations?\" He continued his patronization of her, throwing her blade of his swiftly and stepping in a small stance, feeling for his area. He could hear her heartbeat, listening intently for any signs of her strike, but couldnt not feel anything yet, keeping the cocky grin on his lips. He lunged lightly, a swift movement which brought them close, having his blade against hers in an x shape between them, still carrying that arrogant air.

Kakurine pushed one foot back to keep even with his strength, not trying to overpower him, yet match him. \"It\'s only natural for me to feel stronger in battle.\" She winked to him, before swinging the blade, knocking it out of being locked, pushing against the ground to knock his sword up, in an atempt to disarm him. \"After all, Winglies are a warrior race.\"

He kept his firm hold on it, bringing her blade down slightly with a flick of his wrist, indeed amused and enthrawled with her skill, he rose an eyebrow slightly to her words. \"Oh? Indeed.. we vampires are warriors on a highly different plane.. of course you already know that..\" He loved to tease her dirtily in thier little battle, keeping himself in tune with thier \"prize\". He smirked, twirling his blade around her somewhat lowered one, bringing up his blade against hers with force.

\"Yes, well...\" Kakurine stepped half-way back, and countered his blade, pushing it back at him, until both of their blades were close to his face. \"Even though I\'m only half Wingly, don\'t think that my warrior blood is thinner.\" Turning half-way, she swung her blade against his, once more trying to knock his weapon out of his grasp.

He stepped with her, holding onto his blade, which had almost been knocked from his hand, he smirked, holding it more intenly, becoming slightly more serious. \"Oh no... i take you completely seriously, little one.\" He couldnt help himself, but once stepping back he braced foreward quickly, slamming roughly against her blade and bringing it back up deathly close to her throat, but not touching it quite. \"You are still young.\" He said softly. \"Now, if you will, i seem to have you at throat point... ironic..\"

Laughing, Kakurine said, \"Are you saying you\'ve beaten me?\" Raising her brow, she tilted her head back slightly, before raising her own blade, bring the point to his chest, on his left side. \"Would you like to call it a stalemate?\" She asked, smiling still. \"My, how rusty I\'ve gotten. It has been a long time since I\'ve been in a situation like this.\"

He laughed, having completely forgotten to defend his left side. \"ah, you have gotten me darling... a real warrior.\" He smiled, lowering his blade from her. \"If you please..\" he grinned, motioning to the blade that was currently positioned to run through his left lung.

\"I thank you.\" She laughed still, before lowering her sword, keeping it slightly up just incase he tried to catch her offguard. \"Well, I\'m not quite sure who should be crowned victor here.\" Kakurine smiled sweetly at him, still holding her sword up to her chest, winking at him. Feeling a bit proud at how she had not lost all of her skills, she hoped to be stronger in the future.

He smirked, tossing hus blade onto the couch, walking closer to her and moving her thin blade out of the way, holding it between his thumb and forefinger, the other arm slipping around her waist. \"hmm... In a way, be both win..\" He said softly, pulling her closely, nuzzling his lips to her throat. \"didnt graze you with my blade did i?\" He questioned, knowing he hadnt but finding an excuse to nuzzle her lovingly.

\"Oh come now, love,\" Kakurine chuckled, feeling him nuzzling against her throat. \"You and I both know that you did not even mark me.\" Smiling, she laughed again, running her hand down his chest, over his left side. \"But have I harmed you at all? I might have scratched you.\" Pressing her lips against his chest when she lowered her head past him.

He smirked, letting out a small laugh as she partonized him, he himself amused highly by her confidence, remembering when he had first brought her here. \"No darling, you know as well as i do that you also did not mark upon me.... let us move to somewhere more comfortable, and I will give you some marks....\" He smirked devilishly, holding her close, revealing his obivous arousal. Feeling her soft lips against him drove him wild, pulling his hand through her hair lightly, watching those crimson orbs.

\"Mhmm...Shall I lead?\" She backed up, taking him with her as she moved over towards the couch, taking one hand off of him to pick the blade off gently, and set it out of the way. \"Is this comfortable enough, love?\" Pressing against him, Kakurine moved him to the couch, and sat him down, seating herself upon his lap. Slightly teasing him, she shifted in her spot, her crimson gaze looking straight at his face.

He wasnt going to object, not in the state he was currently in. \"perfect..\" he said softly, feeling her soft backside rest against him, her slight shift making him release a tiny groan, looking at her warningly, but loving everything she did. He lips fell to her collarbone, kissing softyl as his hands grazed over her backside, lifting her slightly, pressing her more intensely against his erection. He ravaged her flesh lovingly, placing little love nips along her upper chest.

Her lips parting in a small moan, she tilted her head back, and her hands reached over, massaging his forearms. Her hands slowly trailed down, tracing around where she knew his erection was in slow, circular motions. Kakurine tilted her head down then, kissing his chest, and soon pressing her lips against his jaw, smiling as she did so.

His breathing slowly increased, feeling her hands connect with the bulge in his pants, making his pull in a breath of air. His eyes rose to her slowly, watching her kiss softly over his chest, those soft pedals connecting with his chin, he rose his arms around her small body, gripping her close, but leaving space for her to continue her ministrations. \"Kakurine... \" He whispered softly,

\"Alexander...\" Murmuring to him, she kissed his lips, her finger still teasingly moving in a circle, then changing to moving back and forth from side to side. Her wings stretched up, flexing to their full length, before curving around him, the silky feathers brushing against his face, her hands moving to now start to take off his clothing.

It took everything in him not to toss her back against the bed and have his way with her, roughly for that matter, but he enjoyed watching her, a small smile on his parted lips, breathing out softly as the lumanesent light bounced off her wings, dazzling his eyes and making him shudder softly in the pleasure of being with her. \"I love you Kakurine...\" He whispered softly, arching his back slightly to allow her better acess to his body, also holding off the urges she instilled within him as her fingers grazed evilly over him.

\"I love you too, Alexander...\" She whispered, kissing the smooth flesh of his chest her hands working and leaving him naked first, planning on teasing him. When she was done with undressing him, she looked down at his body, smiled, and her mouth hungrily kissed him all over, running up his chest, down his abdomen, around his legs, and trailing back up to his lips, teasing, playing, yet being lovingly all at the same time.

He was already unmistakeably erect, her soft lips made him almost crazy with desire, watching her small form dance over him, he growled deep in his throat as she pressed her lips on his thighs and lower abdomen, so close, his head spun, but she was devilish... and brave too, he thought was a smirk. His hand gripped onto her waist lightly, head cocking to the side when he thought he heard something, but to caught up in her ministrations to care.

Kakurine seemed unable to take heed to sounds other than her own and Alexander\'s. Brushing her lips gently against his erect member, breathing on it slowly for a few moments, slowly trailing back up to his lips to kiss him once more. She felt she had gotten her devilish side from him. After all, it was he who teased her first, and he who showed her what pleasure felt like. \"How do you feel right now, Alexander?\" She asked softly, raising her eyes to look up at him, smiling happily, and innocently.

He grinnned, seeing her lovely little face infront of his, kissing her softly. \"Wonderful... But id feel better if you were bare....\" He teased, latching both his large hands onto the small girth of her waist, replacing her in the warm spot where he has been, kissing her throat softly. His hands roamed down the sides of her body, gliding over her breasts, hips and thighs, back up to her sweet visage and kissing it tenderly. His lips remained connected to hers, slowly untying her restraining clothing to remove it from her.
Within thier midst something lay in wait, watching them closely, but disgusted rather than aroused with thier act. He has seen enough. Stepping out from the darkness, shield by magic was a tall, white haired male, glowing ruby eyes glared out from his protected darkness untill the moment was right... then, letting his barier fall, the light emmited from him like a firefly of benevolence. \"Step away from that Winglie\" He growled, pointing a glowing blue sword at Alexanders back. He was suprised, the light burned his eyes as he rolled away from her growling and trying to gain his sight back.

Looking stunned, Kakurine stared at the male who was in the room. She watched the other, staring, silent. She looked baffled before she stood, and moved infront of the sword, pushing it back, wings stretching out. \"Do not harm him.\" She said, eyes watching the other\'s. The ruby eyes he had matched her crimson, and similar white hair... Though her\'s might have been more silver, more shinier.

He growled a little, twitching pointed ears at her words, but complying.
\"Step back, Winglie. You have done enough to marr yourself as it is.\" He murmured in a soft voice, seeming somewhat dissapointed. Alexander stumbed for his undergarments, pulling them on only in time to feel himself lifted into a standing position by the hair. Emmiting a dark, threatening snarl at the man.
\"I Demand to know who you are, and what your doing in my house.\" He barked, pulling out of the mans grasp. He reached out for Kakurine worriedly, but a long, shining white wing, along with an arm bearing the glowing sword prevented him.
\"I Am Ashules, Alfa male of the Mukura Winglies. You, sir, seem to possess one of our kind.. how this came to be I am unsure. But I will pay you dearly for her, whatever you desire... So long as she does not bear your.... abomination\" He said in a disgusted voice, but spoke in a cool, equal tone, as if he knew himself to be better than Alexander.
Alexander had had enough, grasping the front of this mans clothing, somewhat similar to a haori (Like.. A male Kimono) it was stark white with blue veins of thread through it, blue silk lining the baggy arms, bottom and neck of his clothing. On his ankles he wore gold anklets, small, golden wings extending from them, the same on his wrist, his hair adorned with tiny, golden wings just above his ears... Mukura warriors attire.

\"Alexander, wait.\" Kakurine said, pulling back on his arm, looking at Ashules. Taking a breath in, she stood inbetween them. \"I am not sure how you have managed to find me, but I do not wish to leave, or be taken.\" Kakurine had an emotionless look on her face, like the one she had when Alexander first bought her. \"Please, leave.\" She told him, standing firm where she was, wings partially spread out, feathers stiff, and not as smooth as they looked while she was calm.

He grinned, noticing she did have some of that Mukurian fight within her, he watched her wings lift lightly, he extended his own, easily double the span of hers, furling the feathers out as she had done.. but it thought she might not know this to be a sign of superiority, and any insubordination on her part would not be tolorated.. even with this beast to protect her, for whatever sick perverted reason he had her for. \"Little Winglie, please.\" Ashules pleaded in a soft voice. \"I know you are frightened, but do not worry, I can easily dispose of this... creature, and take you home, where you belong.\" He urged her. \"Your true past is unkown to you... And it is my duty to inform you of it\"

\"I have said once before, and I will repeat.\" Kakurine told him slowly, eyeing him. \"I do not wish to leave. Nor will I allow myself to be taken. I was bought as a slave, but now I stay on my own will. And I have fallen inlove with this \'creature\' of which you say you will dispose of. And I will not let you harm, or even lay a hand on him.\" Her wings extended out, in a protective way for Alexander, eyes narrowed at this Mukrian Wingly. Hardly had she ever seen a Wingly in these parts. Even though it had been a while since she\'d explore the outside, just how much have the Winglies expanded since she had been a slave?

He closed his eyes slightly, letting out a sigh, only a mere sliver of shining ruby visible as he tired again, taking her against her will was not something he had intended. \"You may say your inlove with him, but he is a vampire, dead, to heart and soul. He cant love. merely lust and hunger, a devils abomination.\" He said, looking disgustedly to Alexander.
Alexander growled, avoiding the mans eyes, looking to Kakurine. He knew very well that Vampires, to any known degree, could not love. So what was it he felt for Kakurine? Merely lust, a posessivisim gone extreme? He smoothed her wings down slightly. \"Kakurine... At least listen to him, its obvious by his attire he is not from here..... he would not come without reason, but i wont let him take you, i promise.\" he told her softly. Something about this benevolent creature spoke to his inner human, or what little of it was left.
\"Ah, the abomination does speak the truth, for once, And here i thought the only thing you creatures spewed was lies and lust.\" He said in a scarcastic tone, looking alexander up and down as he pulled a shirt over his head.

Kakurine said sharply, \"I request you not insult my love, Sir Ashules. Whether you are Wingly or not, it is not something I will stand for. No matter what my disadvantages are.\" With a sigh, she allowed herself to relax, looking back to Alexander for a moment, as if considering to listen to Ashules. \"If you must inform me of something, you can tell me here. Infront of him and myself. But I will not go anywhere to listen.\" She compromised, her wings now relaxed, folded at her back.

He rolled his eyes, but complying, this wingly was indeed putting him in a sticky situation.. he grunted a little. \"Not within this room.... Is smells of lust.\" He growled in his throat, glancing over to Alexander, turning his head to the door. \"Do you not posess more... Advantageous area for such things? Though I doubt there is a room in this house wirh out the scent of blood on it..\" He murmured softly.
Alexander growled, the scent within this room was of them... and he personally enjoyed it... but was it just his lust speaking? The Wingly suddenly made him question himself, his intentions...
\"Come.\" Alexader said softly, eyeing the ground and leading them out the door, he waited for Kakurine, wanting to have her close. He stopped at the foot of the stairs, speaking softly to her while binding her dress back up, unwanting for Ashules to glimpse at her. More posessivisim, he wondered?

Sighing softly, Kakurine walked over to Alexander. \"If it makes you feel better, shall we step outside then? I doubt there is little a place a warrior such as yourself could wander, without the scent of blood staining the ground and air. I cannot see why this place would be any different.\" She turned slightly. \"Or is it the fact that vampires reside here?\" She did not wait for an answer, merely deciding to lead them outside. It would be better, afterall. Perhaps there was not much Ashules could complain about being outside.

Strangely, he usually was not one to complain, having been in much worse places... but to have been searhing for one lone Wingly for so long, and now having the ungreatful fool tell him shes in love with her master... it was completely perposterous. \"Merely the fact that the species still continues to marr our own.\" He said softly, more dejectedly than scarcastically. Once outside, he breathed deeply, letting the fresh air fill his lungs... only slightly marred with natural carnage. \"Alexander, you have not been caring for your grounds... there are at least 3 lycan in our midst... no matter.\" He turned to Kakurine, standing infront of her, looking down. IT was suprising to fine a Wingly quite so large, but with the excessive wingspan he bore, it only made him that much more powerful. \"Kakurine.. I believed he called you. Do you know any of your past... your heritage?\" he asked gently, seeming to soften rapidly in the fresh air.

It took a moment for her to respond, seeming to gaze off, thinking hard on her past. Sighing, she responded. \"I know not much. Only that I am half-blood. I have been in the forest since I was a child, but my memory has faded on the past. I\'ve lived as a slave for as long as I can remember.\" She told him, gazing up at the large Wingly. She, who was so much smaller, seemed to feel as if the two males next to her were towering over her. But her reason for being so short and small, was due to illnourishment in her early years.

He had a feeling those would be her words. Giving her a small smile, he brushed a silvery strand of hair out of her face, gaining a growl from Alexander, making him grin. \"Ah... So much more to tell you then... You, are of Mukura blood... our kind currently holds the throne over all wingly kind... but as legend goes.. we will fall without the help of a tiny wingly, with unkown heritage, and a mother of unkown blood... Curious to know you hold all and more.\" He continued his somewhat cloudly smile, he seemed as if exaustion of his journey was finally getting to him. \"Kakurine.. you bear so much more power than you have been lead to believe, your father.. was our king, and even though his adultery meant the loss of his kin for so many years... His true companion has been ruling fine, with the help of her warriors of course.\" He added with a grin. \"But.. she is again, quickly... without kin of thier own, winglies die off quickly, another reason for our lessening population.... Kakurine, your people need you.\"

For the time being, she was silent, seeming to slowly take this information in. Her father? A king? It couldn\'t be her that he was talking about, being this tiny wingly of unknown heritage. She stared down at the ground, eyes watching the ground. Her kind needed her...But she did not want to leave Alexander... Raising her eyes slowly, she murmured, her voice soft, \"I am sorry...but...I don\'t...I don\'t think I can rule over...all of the Winglies...\" She looked to Alexander. \"And I have found my home here. My love, too...I do not wish to leave this place, or Alexander...\"

Ashules growled. \"You are... selfish beyond compare. Would you truly sacrifice your entire species merely for your own hapiness? You realize, that even now, we are weakened, because of your half blood.. though, your kin will only be a quarter human, and then eventually return our species to full power.... Kakurine, Our kind feed of the power of our leaders, our rulers. this is why you have so much power.... any weapon you pick up, with the right training, can glow with purification... anything you touch is benevolent. \" He sighed, this was giving him a serious headache. Sighing deeply,. he gave her pleading eyes. \"You cannot stay with this creature... if you do, our kind will die with the injustices you commit with this beast.\"
Alexander was a boiling point. Lightning fast, he gave Ashules such a clout he fell to his side, having not expected it, and weakened from exaustion. \"You will not speak to her that way, nor about any we rear. Kakurine does not have to do anything for you, if your kind are anything like yourself, let them perish.\" He spat, throughly angered by now.

\"Please wait, Alexander...\" Kakurine said softly, staring at the ground, not looking at either of them. \"I...I cannot...decide on this...Not now... I am sorry, but I am not devoted to my race...I barely know anything about my own kind, let alone would I be able to lead them...\" She looked to Alexander slowly. \"I cannot leave here, Sir Ashules... I was raised a slave... I am in no fit condition to...to do anything for my own kind...I can barely manage myself...\"

He pulled himself up qickly, giving his wings a small shake, returning him to the unscathed form before, not speaking two words to Aexander. It was clear he was merely an animal, unable to even control his actions. He placed his hands on either side of her arms, clinging to her, his ruby eyes in desperation. \"Do you not understand? You will kill every wingly ever born to our clan. There are a great many of us, and legendary heros... Maybe.. Maybe the creat- I mean, Alexander, could accompany us to Murkura? You need to come, restore your peoples faith, we are in uproar and turnmoil without the sight of our leader.

Kakurine looked at Alexander, refusing to look in the Wingly\'s eyes. She knew how he was desperate, and it was painful for her to know she was the one who could fix it, but to do so, it would be something she would not be pleased with. \"If...Alexander does not reject. I would wish for him to stay with me...\" She told Ashules, still looking at Alexander. \"Would you come with me, if I go, Alexander...? I will not go if you won\'t.\"

For once, Ashules gave Alexander the pleading look... how else could he possibly proove himself to not be this inhuman beast they had thought him up to be? \"I.. Will come with you, Kakurine, Its your duty, i will not hold you back...\" He sighed, looking to the ground. He knew he was digging himself rather deeply, but what else could he do? He couldnt let an entire species die just for his love for Kakurine.. it wouldnt be right, and he would not let her do it.
Ashules gave a small sigh of happiness, releasing Kakurine, placing a hand over his chest and bowing respectfully. \"I thank you, Princess.\" He said softly, but his knees were weakening, even to do that. Exaustion clear in his eyes.

\'Princess...\' She thought to herself, eyes lingering at him. How could she be a princess? She, a ragged slave who was once dirty, abused, and served without question? What did these Winglies expect from her anyways? Political matters were something she had never studied, and she could not read, nor do magic yet. She would be a rather poor ruler in her mind.. Sighing, she said, \"Please do not bow. I am not...accustom to that...I can tell you have traveled long. If Alexander does not mind...perhaps you should rest here?\"

Alexander gave her a wary look, but complied. \"If you are not to disgusted by my humble abode, I would allow you to stay within one of the rooms...\" He said in a growling voice. Maybe.. maybe this was for the best.. he did not want her to bear kin for him, vampire children were demonic and evil, and he wouldnt put her through that.
Ashules Smiled, thanking him with a costomary bow. \"Yes.. it might take a few days for you to prepare for our journey, it is quite far.\" He told them, walking weakly beind them as Alexander lead kakurine to the house. He Was already on his toes... A Wingly such as him, in his home? never had he allowed one more powerful, physically than him into his house overnight.... he was on edge to say the least.

She had a bit of mixed emotions at the moment. The Winglies wanted her not to bear Alexander any children, and though the thought never crossed her mind before, she did feel a little depressed at the thought. No, they wanted her to bear Wingly children... Did that mean she would have to be forced to fall in love with another Wingly? She doubted that she could. She loved Alexander, and that wouldn\'t ever change. Kakurine was certain he felt the same. So certain that she had known love from him... Kakurine looked to Alexander. \"Do you mind if we head to bed for now, love? I\'m afraid...I feel a little weary myself...\"

He smiled lightly, brushing her hair back with gentle fingers, kissing her forehead. \"No.. it has been a long night. ... Ashules, There are rooms all down this hall, pick whichever one you desire.\" He murmured, Ashules gave a light nod, turning and walking down the hall While Alexander Lead Kakurine into thier bedroom. \"Kakurine...\" He murmured softly, holding her closely to him, nuzzling his nose into her hair, calming himself in her presence. \"I- i know this will be difficult.. but its something you must do. Your kind.. need you. Do not let them down.\" Was all he whispered into her ear, silencing her qualms with a soft kiss, holding her small form closely to him. Never before had he felt so... powerless.

\"I...I know...\" She said. She wanted to weep at how unfair this almost seemed. Why did she have to go? Could they not pick another Wingly? She was so happy here...content...she found love, and Alexander was the first to make her feel pleasure, and know love between two individuals... Kakurine sighed heavily, burrying her face in his chest. \"Did he say...I would have to bear children of my own race...?\" Her eyes lingered up to him, as she raised her head to look up at his face.

He sighed softly, nodding in confrimation. \"Indeed... But... Maybe, it is for the best? Once you bear them a child for them to live off of, they will no longer be in need of you, and they can raise the child to be thier own.... they only need the first born, and then, we can try and get on with our lives... but, seeing as pregnancy takes so long.. we could be there for quite a while.\" He Said all this, trying to remain supportive and somewhat emotionless. \"Kakurine... I know, it will be hard, to lay with another...\" He bit his bottom lip, closing his eyes slightly. \"Its for your people, they need you.\"

Kakurine\'s eyes fell, and she let out a shuddering sigh. How would she be able to do this? Laying with another...she knew there would be no pleasure for her... No, it would be a duty, merely to get her with child, and birth it. Then she could be with Alexander...but she would feel guilty about leaving such a burden on one of her own flesh and blood... \"Let\'s...go to sleep... I do not wish to speak of this for tonight...please...\" She murmured softly.

He gave her a solomen nod, leading her slowly to the bed. He pulled back the heavy, comfortable sheets... he had never felt the desire to sleep ever so much, to feel her warmth with him... He did not want her to lay with a winglie, did not want her to have to go through this... it was, wrong, to everything he thought, he loved her so.... or at least, what he knew to be love. These Wingly costoms were perposterous to him. Lifting her bridal style to the bed, he set her down, kissing her forehead lovingly, and slipping in next to her. \"Goodnight my love.. My princess.\" He murmured tiredly, holding her closely to him, refusing to ever let her go.

\"Goodnight...\" She said softly, wrapping her arms around him as she curved into him. \"No matter what happens, I will still love you...I promise you...\" She told him, kissing his chin softly, before burrying her face in his chest. She felt like sobbing, to scream outloud at how unfair this was. If she was going to have a child, she wanted her first to be Alexander\'s and no one elses... What would happen if she was already with child? Would the Winglies be mad? No matter how upset she was, she remained positive enough not to cry, nor shed a tear. It had been too long since last she had...And she planned on not doing so now... Closing her eyes, she fell asleep, awaiting the next night to come.

As soon as night had fallen, there came a knock on thier door. \"P-princess?\" Said a small, timid voice, a little boy, his spiky white hair and bloody red eyes peeking into the room, not wanting to desturb the vampire he had discovered to be in thier midst. He stepped in, seeing Alexander turn a cold blue eye to him. \"Morning ma;am, sir... you are requested to be in the presence of Her Magesty Queen Kurinlin, and Lord Ashules. Clothing of winglie type has been provided.\" He said softly, pointing to the closets, then giving a small bow again. \"they will be expecting you shortly\" He piped up, then exiting. Alexanders head leaned back against the pillow softly, looking to Kakurine. \"So, it wasnt a nightmare.\"

\"I wish it was only that...\" She said softly, as she looked at him. She had been awake, restless through the day, therefore was not disturbed when the knock came to their door. But she was reluctant to rise from bed, staying next to Alexander. \"I...I just don\'t know if I can go through this... But my kind need me...even though....even though I am not devoted to them...\" She sighed heavily, rising from the bed, shaking her wings out once to smooth the feathers down, before going to the closets, to get out the clothing provided for her.

He rose an eyebrow to the Winglie attire... it was, different indeed. He pulled on the heavy robes, unsure of how Ashules carried himself so well with such weight on his body... shrugging it off, he pulled the clothing on, amazed that the holes only appeared in the clothing if the wearer posessed wings... Kakurine, who had been provided with a lovely white Kimono, the embrodery only obvious when she moved, it fit her beautifully, he smiled, though solemenly. His own was of a red color, the stiching black. He snarled a little, jokers they were.
\"come my beautiful little one... see what fate they have for you, it might not be so bad.\" He said, giving her a forced smile as he pulled her into a loving embrace.

Kakurine took in a deep breath, before letting it out, relaxing her nerves. But she couldn\'t help but feel uneasy with what she was going through. She had never thought anything like this would happen to her. Afterall...How did a princess of a dieing race end up to be a slave, without any knowledge about her heritage? Those answers would most likely not be answered anytime soon, but she didn\'t care. Even when she was alone in the forest, she could manage... She could move along with this, right? Sighing, she hugged him tightly, before turning, and opening the door. \"Well...we shouldn\'t keep them waiting...\"

He nodded lightly, following her outside, the winding hallways were massive. \"They expect us to find them?\" He said scarcastically, but sniffed the air lightly, having labeled Ashules by his scent. \"Come, this way love.\" He said softly, taking her hand and leading her down the polished marble hallways, this place truly was beautiful, he had to admit... averting his eyes from the splendor of her race, things he could never provide her with... But, it still all seemed so odd to him. The scent slowly became stronger, untill he was confronted with the sight of an enormous throneroom, polished to prefection in emerald, he looked up, seeing a tiny woman sitting on a large throne, dressed in green velevet, she seemed to match the room, her large wings laid out tiredly, as if they had not moved in years. Alexander looked around with a scruptioulus eye.
\"You do not bow before a Queen?\" Ashules barked, as Alexander sneered, but brought himself down slightly, trying to keep the peace.
\"What have you beconed us here for?\" He asked, Ashules giving him a cold eye
\"We did not call you, you insited on comming. Kakurine on the other hand must undergo some inspections.\" He said softly, walking before her and extending a hand, his large palm laid out for her small hand, to lead her to the queen.

\"In-...Inspections...?\" She asked timidly, softly, looking up in slight confusion. Hesitaiting, she took his hand, allowing him to lead her to the queen. How big everything was...In her mind, at least. Everyone else must have been used to so much space. Kakurine, however, used to be cramped in a cage, and this huge open space sometimes made her uneasy. As if she would be crammed in a small place in an instant, without warning. She raised her eyes to the queen. She looked so worn out...At least, her wings did. Was this job incredibly difficult? She pushed the thoughts out of her mind, looking around slightly, before allowing her eyes to rest on the queen.

The elderly woman looked up with a tiny smile. The wearing of years upon her were obvious, but upon the death and betral of her mate, she had deteriorated much faster. Ashules told her all this softly, as the queen stood, walking around her slowly and inspecting her. \"You will need to come with me child, a more through inspection is required.\" She said in her timind voice, leading her to a velvet curtain, opening it tp reveal an almost sergical type room, but no instuments of such were apparent. \"Ashules, watch this area please.\" She requested, Ashules giving her a small bow. Her eyes turned to Kakurine yet again. \"please, enter\"

Kakurine eyed the room warily, somewhat frightend of what kind of inspection was needed. Looking over her shoulder at Alexander, she looked up at his face for a moment. Realising she had to go through with this, and seeing Alexander\'s face had given her confidence, she nodded slowly to the queen, taking in a deep breath, before walking into the room, her wings curved half-way around her, acting as a cloak. After a moment, she flexed them out, and let them relax behind her.

The Queen was still smiling lightly. \"Ah, no further inspection is nessicary... i can tell by the arrangement of veins in your wrist that you are of winglie blood, and not only that, you are my husbands daughter... and the only heir to the throne.\" She sighed lightly, patting Kakurines hand. \"This just gives us a little privacy. Now... if you would not mind, i need to touch your abdomen.\" She said softly, looking up to kakurines confused face. \"Oh, dont worry child, im not going to hurt you, but its obvious your not a virgin anymore, Winglies can tell that emmidiately, but if you are giving birth to a vampires kin... then i pity you, im sure your lover has told you of how demonic Vampire children are.\"

\"I...No...He\'s never told me... You see, it\'s never crossed my mind to have children before...\" Kakurine murmured lightly, but nodded, allowing the queen to feel her abdomen. Part of her wished that Alexander\'s child was growing in her, so she wouldn\'t have to lay with a Wingly. At least not yet, not until she was ready. But by the sound of the queen\'s voice, she supposed that vampire children must not be a joy. \"Is it a bad thing, if Alexander\'s child is inside of me...? I mean...besides about it not being entirely Wingly... What I mean by, is...\" She found it hard to actually describe what she was wondering.

The queen smiled, nodding lightly. \"I know child. No, its not the fact that its not entirely winglie that bothers me, its the fact that Vampire kin are.. much smarter than normal children. They can smell blood from miles away, and have been known to kill thier parents in thier sleep should they be hungry enough. They do not cry, they do not show thier hunger... they are evil to the core, and show the true way of the vampire.\" She shivered lightly at the thought, having known vampires a long tme ago, in times not like these. \"Also, should you be with child, it would weaken our race so much more than now. You need to mate with a strong, powerful winglie to save our race. I know its not something that you want to do... i did not either, nor did my husband... so blame your father for your place if anything.\" she said in a bitter voice, it was obvious she was still cold to the betrayl. \"You will have any choice of winglie in the city, and they would all fight to the death to be father to the next queen... but i advise someone trustworthy. Ashules as been by my side since your father dissapeared.... and he seems keen on your protection.\"

\"I...\" She lowered her head, biting her bottom lip. \"Ashules...is the only Wingly I know in the city...But...\" Kakurine looked down. \"I don\'t think I can...can force myself to just...to allow someone to...\" She shook her head, then looked up. \"I\'m sorry, Your Majestiy... I know this is important... I will...try to do this... For the sake of this race... I do not want our kind to die out...just because of me...\" She murmured softly, eyes casted downward.

She lowered her eyes a little, placing as small hand on Kakurines shoulder. \"I know this is hard, i know better than anyone how hard this is.. but, think, that it is only 10 months or so, get you pregnant, and then carry to term... then, your child will live the life any winglie would dream, teachers of every sort, luxury... You neednt worry about your kin, and if you desired to stay in our city, than you could, and you and your lover could be with your child. Ashules, though, will be at your childs beck and call as his father, it is costomary in our culture. The mother, unfortunately, is unnpariciated.. so, only do what you must, do not feel obligated to raise something you did not want, unless by the time its born, you do.\" she told her all this calmly, gently. \"Laying With Ashules is the easy part, Any Winglie would be lucky to have him as a mate, even temporary, he will not harm you in anyway, nor try and find you after the deed his done. His place is with the child, not the mother. Although, before it is born, Ashules will feel an inbred need to protect you, but dont worry to much about that, its merely instinct.\"

Kakurine stared at the ground for a moment. \"These customs are so alien to me...\" She whispered. \"I have known the human\'s way; the father and mother both participate in raising the child. It is in both of their duties...I would...feel guilty to abandon my own flesh and blood...even...even though... I do not really want a child just yet.\" Kakurine sighed. \"But...I have never really known family...it would be hard for me if I could not known what it\'s like...\" Kakurine then looked up. \"I\'m sorry, I\'m rambling now.\" She seemed to be embarassed now.

The queen simply nodded, giving her time to mull it over in her head. She reached over, a light glow emmiting from her hand above Kakurines Abdomen, she looked up. \"Alright Kakuirine. I need you to tell me if you feel any tingling. If you do, your not pregnant, but if you dont.. then we have some things to worry about.\" She spoke softly, hoping, for Kakurines sake, that she felt the tingle.

At the moment, she seemed distracted, thinking of something to herself. It was in her hopes that she was pregnant, actually... She wanted her first child to be Alexander\'s, even though it sounded as if vampire children had a rather nasty reputation. Still...She would find it dificult to lay with Ashules, and she wondered just how the queen could see it as being easy. Realising the queen was checking her now, she looked at her abdomen, and indeed could feel tingling. Her voice sounding as if in dispair, she said, \"Yes...I can feel tingling...\"

She smiled, letting go of Kakurine \"thats wonderful, the gods must be with us\" she said hapily, opening the heavy curtian and stepping outside. \"Good news, The princess will be ready for child anyday now.\" The queen looked especially happy, knowing that thier race was going to have a strong, almost fully winglie child to be thier ruler, and that Kakurine was not with child of a monstrosity. Ashules and Alexander, who had been sitting in silence on opposite sides of the room like spoilt children, looked up, seeing them both exit and listening to the Queens words. Alexander was relived, but also a little saddened that she would have to go through with this, it was obvious she did not want to. Jealousy boiled in him, Looking to Ashules with fire in his eyes, he knew that he was obviously thier most powerful worrior, meaning he was also the most eligible mate.

Kakurine looked at the ground, frowning slightly, before looking up at Alexander. How terrible she felt. She felt she was betraying him with having to lay with Ashules, and now, she had regrets about agreeing to doing this. But then again, after she would have the child, she would be free to live with Alexander, and perhaps try to have their own child one day. But they would stay there for almost a year... Sighing, she walked over to Alexander, unsure what to stay, merely staying silent. She wondered if Ashules knew he would be the one who\'d have to lay with her. Looking over at Ashules, she searched his face for a sign of knowing.

Alexander grasped her into his arms holding her close and giving her a soft kiss on her forehead, glancing down to her. \"You know, you dont have to do this darling.. its entirely up to you.\" he whispered the words to her softly, catching the attention of Ashules keen, pointed ears. \"Yes, she could always go back with you, die in her bed from being ripped appart by her own flesh and blood, and be responsible for the death of her own race, it would be suicide not to.\" He said in an athoritative voice, looking down to the petite winglie. \"I am forced into this as much as you.\" He whispered, gazing into her eyes before turning to leave. \"Also, attendants will be at your room tonight to prepare you for the ceremony. dont fight them off, its there job, and costomary.\"

Lowering her eyes even more, she stared down at the floor, before looking up at Alexander. \"I\'m sorry, Alexander...\" Her voice sounded a little tight, as if she was fighting emotion and trying her best not to break down and cry. \"But...I-I must do this... I can\'t...I would...feel so guilty if my whole race dies, because...because of me...\" Kakurine lowered her head and eyes once more, staying in Alexander\'s embrace. She kissed his chin gently. \"The sooner we get this done...the sooner we can go home, and...and live normally...\"

He sighed softly, giving her a light nod. \"I know, you have no need to apologize to me, its something you must do... but, you have to stay here untill you give birth, unfortunately.\" He looked down to her, giving her a gentle kiss on the lips. \"Well, your attendants must be waiting for you...\" He said softly, apparently time passed much more quickly in this place, and the night was passing quickly. Taking her hand in his he walked with her back to thier room. Outside her room stood four winglie women, all clad in soft pink attire, smiling at her when they noticed her approach. \"Come on! we\'ve been waiting forever, no time to loose.\" He said, taking her down the hall to yet another room. One stayed momentarily. \"We were going to prepare her in your room.. but we couldnt get the smell of ...... animal out of it, not proper for a ceremonial bed.\" She said coldly, apparently the view of vampires was mutual in all Winglies. The door to the room Kakurie was Led to was thrown open, revealing an almost oriental interior, all dapled in blues and golds.

She hesitaited around these other Winglies. She felt so small around them...Indeed she was rather short, even slightly shorter than these Winglies who were going to prepare her. She frowned at the mention of \'animal\'... If only they knew just how wonderful, and passionate Alexander was... But she said nothing, but one question, seeming worried about it. \"What if...what if when he...comes to me... What will happen if I am not with child when he is done? Must I do this again...?\" She hoped it would only take one time. She knew it would pain her just to lay with him this one night, and she knew there would most likely be little if no pleasure for her.

The other winglies looked down to her, then moved around the room and brought out many cleansing and beautifying products, preparing a hot bath filled with rose pedals and lillies. Eventually one looked to her and began to help her remove her clothing, while answering her question. \"Yes, If you are not with child, then this will have to occur again, but not quite with all the splendor that we are envoking now... dont want Ashules to be dissapointed do we?\" She said with a smile. \"If I were in your shoes... that man wouldnt know what hit him, I bet hes a wonderful lover.\" She giggled, the others laughing and agreeing, a huge commotion of comments as they motioned to the tub.

But Kakurine did not laugh, nor smile. \"I\'m sure you already know I have a lover...The \'animal\' you refered to earier, happens to be my love...\" Without another word, she moved to the tub, staring down at it. How could she go through with this? She wondered to herself, but took a deep breath, and felt the hot water with her hand, before easing in slowly, getting used to the heat. She let out a sigh as she sank in the water.

They rolled thier eyes lightly, but patted her on the shoulder while pouring some water over her head, washing her hair with rich soaps. \"We know that, whatever posessed you to fall in love with a Vampire I dont know, there cant be anything in it for you. Vampires cant love, merely lust, hunger, and poesess.\" The shortest one said, her red hair bobbing as she spoke. The darked haired woman agreed. Its true darling, And even if he might seem like hes in love with you... hes in lust,body, your blood, he must lie awake at night and daydream about drinking it.... Speaking of that, he must be starving by now, strange, his heartbeat is still regular as far as a noticed, seeing how close i got\" She shivered a little at the fact. They were all very intune with thier powers, able to feel things such as hearbeat, lust, hunger, and so on.

\"Not Alexander...I know he loves me. It isn\'t only lust. And if it is, then he controls himself very well.\" She said, matter-of-factly, closing her eyes when they applied to the soap, so it would not get in her eyes and burn them. \"He\'s only drank from me three times. And all of those times, I offered myself willingly, for he went without blood for a few days more than he should, and he was becoming weaker. So it isn\'t merely blood lust.\"

They shruged, not wanting to fight with her on the topic, it was her choice, not matter how perposterous being with a vampire seemed to them. Dunking her heand under the water and rinsing her hair, they stood her up, dried her off while telling her want was expected of her in the ceremony. \"The first thing that will happen when we leave, is you are to kneel in the center of the bed, head lowered untill he comes, in a submissive state, he will approach you and kiss your shoulder, allow him to do so, as it shows him that you are submitting and willing.\" The red haired girl spoke all this, while the others added in little tidbits of information, while applying a mosturizer to her skin, leaving it feeling almost unnaturally smooth, radiant looking. \"Then, he will ask you a few things... each Mate is different, so just answer with your heart, it will be fine.\" She assured, her, then giving her a small box. \"here, this is your cerimonial gown. Good Luck Princess.\" They spoke in unison the past part, bowing, and exiting the room. Contained within the box was a far from a gown in any respects. merely a pinkish lace cover, which formed to her frame, emroideries of flowers ran over the breasts and down the sides.

\'Such strange customs...\' Kakurine thought to herself, staring down at the box. Opening it, she looked as the gown inside, sighing as she said, \"Well...I have to do this...no turning back now...\" When she was ready, she slowly made her way to the bed, kneeling in the center of it as she was instructed to do. Then, she lowered her head, eyes casted to the ground as she waited. For a moment, she thought of Alexander...Was he feeling as bad as she was now...? Perhaps even more...?

Alexander stood within his room, growling in the depths of this throat, Jealous beyond fathomablility. Kakurine was his, and his alone, this winged warrior was only with her to place her with child, where he should be... Alexander cursed his heritage, his species for ever making him into this beast. He punched the wall sharply, but not enough to brake the plaster, leaving a small dent. but it did not vent his anger... He could feel his head spinning with hunger.. his eyes flashed a darkened red color, then back to normal. Kakurines blood was exquisite, what about the rest of her race? He stormed out of his room.
Ashules knocked upon the door lightly, then entering, poking his silvery head withing the room... he noticed in in the cerimonial state, he looked down, then entering and shutting the door. He removed his robe, leaving him bare chested and in a pair of white silken night garment pants, he approached her slowly, brushing her shoulder lightly with Warrior warn fingertips, and pressing oddly soft lips to her shoulder. His hair brushed against her, softer than the softest of fabrics, he looked up to her lightly from where his lips lie.

For a moment, she remained in that position, head down, eyes still staring at the ground. She felt distant with herself for some reason, natural instinct telling her that now, she must raise her head and accept what was going to happen. No stopping now, she submited to him, raising her head slowly, looking up at him with her crimson eyes, her hair lightly laying straight down. She stared up at him, not saying anything, her face blank, awaiting the questions he was to ask her.

He smiled lightly, Raising himself and stroking her cheek gently, kissing the opposite. \"You must be frightened.. Strange costoms, strange surroundings... strange bed partner.\" He looked to her with all seriousness. \"Turning back now is completely out of the question. I Dont want to force you into anything that you might not like though... so here are your choices. I can merely get this over with as quickly as you like, but it might be difficult to get you pregnant that way... or I can be gentle.. or rough...\" He looked up to her curiosly. \"also, you can leave your... garment on if you desire, and i can face you, or do so from behind, whichever you prefer.\" He spoke all this with the upmost rationality, brushing her hair back tenderly, taking her hands in his.

Staring at his hands, she murmured, \"It would be best if we did this enough to get me pregnant... So...So we won\'t have to do this again in the future...\" Her eyes lingered at the ground, before she raised them to look at his face slowly. \"I...I will remove my garment...Do this in anyway you feel suited...As long as we get it done... Perhaps I may even feel some pleasure tonight, rather then this dispair that is lingering in my mind right now...\" Shaking her head, she looked at him once more, allowing him to choose.

He smiled softly, letting go of her hands and kissing her lips with the gentlest of movements, placing a hand around her lower back and lowering her slowly to the bed, his strength held her up easily as he leaned over her, smiling lightly as he released her lips from his. \"Dont worry Kaku, I will try to make this as enjoyable as I can for you... I promise.\" He murmured to her ear, placing gentle, fleeting pecks to her neck, rasising strong hands to lower the flimsy shoulders of the pink lace.

\"Thank you...\" Kakurine whispered softly. She knew now she would not be able to stop. This was going to happen, and she was going to have to accept it. A bit of blush appeared in her cheeks, seeming to be as sheepish as she was when she was a virgin. Well, afterall, she was having to lay with a man she had met not too long ago, and he would have to get her to bear his child. He reminded her of Alexander...Strong hands...and the towering yet protective size... But her heart still felt as if she belong to Alexander, and she hoped she would never betray him.

He enjoyed the sound of her voice, liking the way her breath rose and fell within her petite form. His lips fell on her smooth flesh gently as he lowered the thin fabric, revealing her bare breasts and abdomen to him, he gave her a protective smile as he loomed over her, somewhat larger and more powerful than Alexander, as he had gained all his strength through experince. Huge, powerful wings that seemed to glow in the moonlight through the window, curled around her protectively, trying to make her feel secure. Those soft lips curled around one of her small nipples, the other hand cupped her opposite.. he smiled, she was so tiny in his grasp.

A tiny gasp escaped her mouth. She couldn\'t help but feel aroused slightly by his actions. Afterall, Ashules was a lot like Alexander, and a Wingly, so she would be naturally attracted, not repelled. Her wings stretched out, not nearly as large as his, flexing to their full length. They were large compaired to her body, however. The feathers brushed against his wings, as she looked at his head. Alexander had claimed her like this...she wondered, what if Ashules decided to claim her as well...? She shook the thought out of her mind. No, it was merely to get her pregnant, and that was all.

He grinned up to her pleasured expression, moving to the opposite and giving it the same affectionate attention, removing his lips and rolling them both his fingers, looking down on her lovely face. He couldnt help it, she was a very beautiful Wingly none the less, and it was obvious he liked the attention he was giving her. He pulled off the rest of the flimsy garment, kissing just bellow her belly button before parting her legs to either side, he looked up to her, as if questioning if pleasing her this way would he alright, he nuzzled the small sparcing of hair above her entrance with his nose gently, smelling the little winglies scent, he enjoyed it so.

Sensing his question, her head gave a slight nod, allowing him to please her as he wished. In the pit of her stomach, she felt guilty at what was happening. She was aroused, no doubt about it, and she was willing to let him do whatever he wished. Occasionally, her breathing would speed out of her mouth, and when his nose was touch her, a low, yet soft moan escaped her throat, sounding in the room like a very distant echo.

He gave his own gentle murmur in response, letting his lips brush over her outer folds, before parting them gently with his tongue and tasting her essence, awakening his desire for her petite body, he licked at her a ltitle rougher, but still, ever so gentle, anglelic in his affections upon her. \"Kaku...\" He mumbled lightly against her folds, parting them with his large fingers to get better access to her assets. his other hand lightly massaged her thigh, kissing her softness every once again before resuming that impatient, hungry licking.

More moans left her mouth, as she closed her eyes, waves of passion washing through her, building up slowly. Her breaths came in pants, her breasts rising and falling with each breath she took. Her muscles on her thighs began to tense, her wings starting to flex. \"A...Ashules...\" She murmured lightly, feeling passion coming into her body. The guilty feeling inside of her was being covered with an almost frenzied passionate feeling.

He could feel the convulsions of her body in his hands, aroused greatly by it, murmurings of random arousal to her folds. He stopped, pulling himself over her form, placing a hand on either side of her head, staring down on her form. \"Kakurine... I dont want to hurt you.. but i might be larger than Alexander.. tell me if i do\" He whispered, kissing her ear gently before pressing his member agains her soft folds, looking into her eyes and kissing her lips gently, rubbing his tongue over her lips gently, his soft eyes closed in pleasure.

\"You won\'t...You won\'t hurt me...\" She breathed out, looking up at him passionately. She felt his probing member, starting to come into her. It nearly drove her over the edge, but she managed to control herself, not wanting to lose her head over Ashules...How would Alexander feel if he knew that Ashules aroused her...? Would he hate her...? But she couldn\'t concentrate on those thoughs, her mouth opening to accomidate her rapid breathing.

He entered her slowly, gasping a little at the tightness of her small frame, he tucked an arm in under her body, lifting up her frame and pressing it against his bare form, pressing himself deeper within her. his breathing became more ragged, his open mouth lingering above hers, eyes connected with hers in ritualistic domination. His wings wrapped around her small form as he held her there passionately, \"Kaku.... My Princess...\" He mumbled, unable to help the words that spilled from his mouth in the thrones of lust.

Kakurine moaned loudly, unable to control herself in her lust. \"Ashules...my mate...\" She murmured, tilting her head back, eyes closing as she moaned again. It surprised her how he could awaken such passion in her, as Alexander had done so many times before... She felt guilty in the back of her mind, but now...She couldn\'t resist Ashules. He had control over her. He was inside of her, and he could bend her to his will, so it seemed.

He groaned out in pleasure, his thrusts were slow, soft, but unblieveably noticeable, he could feel her tightness closing around him again and again as he moved within her small body, groaning in pleasure continuously with her, he was amazed with the wonderful feelings he got from her body. He was no virgin by any rate, but he had never felt this way with anyone. she unleashed something inside him, it was more than he could bare, calling her name as he errupted within her, spilling out copious ammounts of what he had been sent to do.. but now fouund something else. His head lowered, he leaned her body back against the sheets slowly, he had not expected himself to come so soon...

Kakurine cried out, as she reached her climax, feeling her body being leaned back, her breath coming in pants. She had not expected it to end so soon as well, their passion seeming to have had an effect on both of them. She breathed softly, catching her breath, and closing her eyes. Would Alexander be angry that she enjoyed this in the end? She hoped not...She couldn\'t control herself...Afterall, Ashules was rather similar to Alexander. Perhaps a little bigger, yet... She sighed, looking up at him, her heartbeat slowly returning to normal.

He kissed her softly, pulling his weight up off her form and laying next to her, running his fingers lightly through her hair. \"Im sorry I came so soon... i wasnt really expecting you to be so small.. though, probably better for you.\" he murmured, pressing another kiss to her forehead, before laying down and pullign the sheets over them both. \"Sleep well little princess.\" he said softly, slipping a tired, but protective arm around her.

\"You too...I...I don\'t mind that you came so soon...I did as well...But I\'m surprised I came at all...\" Looking up at him, she then started to close her eyes, her face burrying into his chest, smelling the sweet scent of sweat that had come from their love making. Her guilt occasionally prodded in her mind, but her eyes were closed, her mind starting to shut off thoughts, as she fell asleep.

He smiled, feeling her curl into his chest... he loved the feeling of her small body.. he envied Alexander so at that moment, but shook the thought from his mind, nuzzling the softness of her hair, smelling the sweetness of the rose pedals her tennants had adorned her with... he too fell asleep, holding her close.

Shifting awake a few hours later, Kakurine sat up slowly from the bed, realising Ashules was still next to her. She smiled, then frowned slightly. She had slept well with his warmth...just like Alexander... She shook her head, looking away. What if she started to like Ashules more? She had a feeling Alexander would not like it. Sighing softly, she pulled herself out of his embrace, searching for her clothing in the room, wings stretched out.

He had felt her warmth leave him, groaning a little in his sleep he awoke, crimson red eyes watched her. \"Kaku... dont go...\" He murmured into the bedsheets, then, realizing what he had said, jerked himself out of his half asleep state, sitting up. \"You may leave if you desire princess... though your vampire will not be awake yet...\" He pointed to the window slowly,it was still slightly light outside. \"You have not slept very well... Would you like some breakfast?\" He offered, feeling a need to make her stay, oddly.

Kakurine looked over at him, and a pang hit her heart. It scared her; she was having feelings for Ashules now. As if she loved both him and Alexander at the same time... But it couldn\'t be like that... Sighing, she said, \"I have slept well...I am used to very little sleep. I have been for years...\" Looking down, she shook her head. \"No, I am not hungry. I do not want anything to eat...\" Kakurine murmured lightly.

He frowned lightly, having heard of her slave backround, as that is how she had come into the vampires posession... a princess, living with a monster as far as he could see. Rising from his bed he pulled on the white silken pants of the night before, and walking closely to her.. he absentmidedly wrapped a wing around her shoulders, smiling gently. \"Please darling, you need to learn to eat more now, and sleep better... you hopefully are with kin.\" He said with a smile, placing a large hand on her tiny lower abdomen, looking into her eyes. \"Look after our kin.\" He whispered, kissing her forehead

Kakurine looked down at his hand. She wondered if a baby could really grow in her small body... She resisted the urge to sigh, as she looked up at him. \"I will...I\'ll...try my best...\" She said softly, looking up at him. She then stepped back. \"Alexander must be wondering where I am...I should go to him now...\" She picked up the cerimonial gown on the ground, slipping it back on, so she wouldn\'t need to walk out of the room in the nude. Her wings flexed slowly, as she looked at Ashules.

He felt a growl of jealousy in his stomach.. was he falling for this little wingle? No, it was merely his parental insticts as a father that made him so protective of her.. yes, that was it. He nodded lightly, watching her exit the room, then calling a servant into the room. \"Bring a healthy breakfast to the vampires room... the princess has not eaten yet.\" He said sfotly, the small boy nodded and scampered off to the kitchen.
The night had finally fallen, and Alexander lay in his bed, looking out the window, or at the ceiling... the night before had been also eventful for him.. though not so lucky for some human wandering outside the winglies domain. He had lead her into the darkness, his shadowy charm enticing her.... untill he was far enough away to drink of her essence and leave her body to rot. A sigh passed his lips as he thought back to this... he truly was a monster. Were these \"benevolent beings\" getting into his head?\"

Opening the door to his room, she timidly said, \"Alexander...? Are you awake yet...?\" Guilt knawed at her insides. Now she did feel like she betrayed him. She had somewhat grown attatched to Ashules. But she supposed that was because, if there was a babe in her womb, that he would be the father. Also, he was a Wingly...She quickly shook the thoughts out of her head. She knew Alexander could read her thoughts, and she hoped he wouldn\'t, since there was so much guilt inside of her. She looked up at the bed, searching to see if Alexander was awake.

He leaned himself up on his elbows, looking to her form. His eyes grazed over the tiny pink lace garment she had been adorned with... emmiting a low growl of arousal and smirking at her. \"Come...\" He murmured, beconing her to the bed egarly... he had missed her, the warmth of her body, the sweetness of her flesh... And seeing her so scandily clad made his hunger for her awaken all the more.
It hit him then that Ashules had more than likely seen her in the illustrious lace... and slept with her. He growled again, but this time in jealousy, eyes flashing with a sort of Rage. \"Enjoy yourself?\" He spat.

Kakurine was walking forth, and she froze at his words. She knew it would be natural that he would be jealous...after all, he was the first who had claimed her. For a moment, she said nothing. \"Please, Alexander...\" She murmured softly. \"I...would not like any mention of last night anymore...It\'s hard enough for me already...\" Her voice was just above a whisper, her head down in shame. How could she tell him that Ashules had pleased her last night? Her insides squirmed in guilt, almost a sickly way.

He bit his bottom lip lightly, guessing the night had been stressing enough... he did not want to know the full events, so did not read her thoughs into it. He smiled lightly, pulling himself up onto his knees and picking up her little form, sitting himself back down with her in his lap. \"Im sorry...\" He murmured, kissing her forehead and looking down to her. \"You really do look beautiful..\" He murmured... he could smell Ashules all over her, it sickened him, but he kept silent, just holding her in his arms.

She blushed, and felt relieved that Alexander was not going to pressure her on it. Yes, it had been hard enough on her. She didn\'t want to do it, but in the end she had liked it, and she didn\'t know how Alexander would react to that. \"Thank you.\" She said, kissing his chin gently. She sighed heavily. \"I missed you.\" She murmured, burrying her head in his chest, breathing in. She had indeed missed him. Even as Ashules bedded her, she missed Alexander with a longing ache.

He smiled lightly, having longed for the feeling of her last night, he clung to her flesh egarly, kissing her cheeks, her lips and shoulders. But she tasted of Ashules, he wanted her soft, feminine scent back. \"Hm.. I have an idea\" He murmured, lifting her up into his arms bridal style, and leading her out of thier room. \"Last night, I went.... Exploring.\" He murmured, she did not need to know of his night, as much as he did not want to know about hers. \"I found that this place id close to hot springs, and they seem to have taken full advantage of that.\" He murmured as he walked though winding hallways, following the old scent of blood none of these winged inhabitants would ever discover. Kicking open a large, ordinately carved door, revealing the ground had changed to dirt. Before them was a small, rocky waterfall, exiting too a large pool of water, steam rising from the hot waters. \"come, relax my little one..\" He murmured into her ear lovingly as he set her down.

\"Oh, how beautiful...\" Kakurine breathed out in wonder, looking at the waterfall. It was the first time she had ever seen such a wonder, and she looked up at him, smiling. Her guilt still clung in her heart, but she looked at him lovingly, kissing him softly on the lips. \"I do need to relax.\" She admited, blushing. \"I feel so stressed out right now...\" Sighing, she looked at waterfall and pool, and stuck her hand into the waters. Like a warm bath, she thought to herself.

He grinned, kissing her shoulder lightly as she stuck her hand into the warm waters. \"well then, lets not wait\" He grinned, pulling off the flimsy pink lace, leaving her beautifully bare, the way he liked it. \"Your so lovely Kakurine...\" He whispered, removing his own clothing and stepping into the pool of water, relaxing into the heat. He looked up to her lovingly, extending a wet hand in her direction. He couldnt wait to get that sickening, masculine scent off her form.

She smiled, as she took his hand, slowly stepping into the waters, sighing as she felt the warmth running through her blood. She sank in, next to Alexander, and cuddled close to him, her wings dipping down in the water. \"Ah...That feels good.\" She said, leaning her head gently on his shoulder. Even her guilt seemed to loosen up to the heat, leaving nothing there but her love for Alexander. Her hands rubbed his, as she closed her eyes, relaxing.

He smiled, loving the way her little body sunk into his, removing that forien sent off her, and leaving the soft, feminine scent.. like a single rose bathed in morning dew, thats what it reminded him of. He looked down to her, holding her little hand in his against his chest as he leaned against the side of the hotspring, kissing her forehead gently. \"My poor little one..\" He murmured, getting the vibe of guilt from her. \"Do not feel guilty.... It was something you had to do. He did not hurt you did he?\" He questioned her, she could feel his chest rumble in anger against her form.

\"No.\" Kakurine responded, perhaps a little too quickly. \"No, he was very gentle...He did not wish to hurt me, and even asked me how he should do it...\" She then looked away from him. She hoped she hadn\'t let on that he had pleased her last night, and had even brought her to a climax in the midst of their passion, so quickly... Feeling the anger rumbling in his chest, she almost felt repelled at it. Was he angry at her, or Ashules...? She couldn\'t help but wonder.

\"good\" he responded in his low growling voice, holding her that much closer to him. \"Gentle was he?\" He grinned, kissing her softly, nipping her bottom lip teasingly. \"Is that what you would prefer? an gentle touch as apposed to this \"animal\" who loves to ravange his little winglie..\" He murmured against her, pressing her delicately, but forcefully against the side of the smooth rocks. He licked her cheek, glad to taste her flesh, and not the taste of that blasted warrior.

Kakurine smiled at him weakly. \"I prefer you, and whatever is natural to you...It shows me how much you love me...\" She told him softly, smiling as she kissed him gently on the lips. It was a mix of both she liked. Rough and gentle, it didn\'t matter to her, as long as she could satisfy Alexander. She loved to please Alexander. It made her happy to be able to do such a thing, instead of feeling like a worthless slave. She ran her fingers down his chest teasingly, smiling at him.

He smiled gently, kissing her forehead. It really wasnt his place to sexually engage her so soon, he simply slipped his arms around her and held her close. \"I love you Kakurine...\" He whispered, kissing the gentle curve of her ear, then pulling back a little and picking up a bar of rich soap. He smiled, leaning her back into the water, wetting her hair and washing it with tender, loving hands... that was one thing vampires could do, show devotisim through touching, and grooming.

She sighed, and closed her eyes, relaxing as she felt her lover\'s hands washing her hair. She seemed to feel a little drowzy as she felt his actions, relaxing even more in the hot water. How calm she felt right now, and she didn\'t feel that knawing guilt anymore. Alexander seemed to have accepted it, and he wasn\'t going to press her on it. It made her happy to know that. \"Thank you, Alexander...\" She said, rather unexpectedly. It was hard to tell what she was saying \'thank you\' for.

He simply smiled and kissed her temple, rising the suds from her short, soft hair. He scrubbed his on his a quick motion, he could still smell the blood of the maiden he had feasted upon on his flesh... he haded how it lingered, as if telling him the evilness of the deed... but what was he to do? The blood of a human kept him satisfied for much longer than any other creature, and he needed that to suffice him... He glaced to the moon through one of the windows, curious to how long he had till the next full moon... it was not long, he realized.

Kakurine opened her eyes, smiling up at him. Her wings lifted up out of the water, and she kept them out of it. \"This heat sort of makes my wings sting.\" She explained, just incase he would question her. She extended them outward, shaking them to dry the water off, while she smiled up at him. \"Here, let me help you.\" She reached up, and scrubbed Alexander\'s hair, just as he was doing hers.

He grinned, loving to see her wings fully extended, he leaned his head down to her so she would not have to reach up so high, he kissed her softly as she did this, for Vampires grooming was the best way to show that they longed for the other. He cocked his head to the side lightly, thinking he had heard something outside the door, but ignored it. The wonderful scent of her so close to him in the heat was intoxicating beyond compare, his eyelids drooping slightly and leaving the vision of those stony blue iris gleaming out from under.

Kakurine chuckled gently, as she stroked his head, cleaning out his hair. \"Do you like this? Am I doing this right?\" She asked curiously, smiling at him, as she leaned up, and kissed his forehead, smiling still. \"Ah, Alexander... I love being with you.\" She smiled, looking up at him, her eyes almost seeming to sparkle with her love for him. There was still a glint of shame and guilt in her eyes, but it was hidden behind her love for him.

He growled slightly in his throat, but it was not in anger, but a sort of purring. \"Yes... perfect.\" He murmured, pulling her fingers down from his hair and grinning devilishly, pulling her down under the water playfully. he came back up, grinning boyishly.
Suddenly the door came open quickly, a few tenants of the Queen entered, followed b\'y Ashules. \"The queen requests your presence with her and the royal families of the nearby factions od Koran and Syvilye.\" The smallest one said, Ashules looking down at the two with a sort of glare, Alexander wrapping his arm around her to keep her from being exposed. \"Clothing has been set out in your room princess.\" They bowed, and then exited. Ashules remained momentarily. \"Its a breakfast meeting.. so do try and keep your animal in line princess.\"

\"My love will be fine...\" She defended softly, looking over at Ashules momentarily, before sighing and looking at Alexander. For some reason, these Winglies seemed intune with inturupting their time together... Kakurine couldn\'t wait for her to have the baby... If she was with kin, that is. Her eyes looked down for a moment, before she slowly rose from the hot water, wrapping her wings around herself to keep her unexposed. \"Let\'s go...\" She said softly to Alexander.

Ashules watched her walk past him, vivid memories comming back to him... he sighed softly, walking out of the room and toward thier meeting place. Alexander clothed himself slightly, then walked back to thier accomidations behind kakurine. He opened the door, seeing thier clothing was indeed laid out almost perfectly for them... his, a simple Black Haori, along with what seemed to be a gold charm of some sort, small wings comming of the pendant. He shrugged, guessing it was what he was to wear, and began to clothe himself.
Kakuries outfit was somewhat more ordinate. Laid out for her was a light lavender colored kimono, a deep violet barrett to wrap around her middle. Alexander found it odd how these people never wore any shoes or such, but with wings he guessed they never needed it. Along with the silken kimono for Kakurie, was much silver jewelery, a band that rested on her head, small wings comming off of it abover her ears, a ring for her left hand, and anklets similar to Ashules, except silver. \"Must be important people for them to let me wear gold..\" He said with a smirk as he dressed.

Kakurine dressed herself, her body already strangly dry when she came in. Everything seemed to be enchanted, she thought to herself. She put on the kimono, wrapping the barrett around her middle, and putting on the jewelry set out for her. She felt strange wearing such noble things, and she looked over at Alexander. \"I\'m a little nervous... I\'ve never been anywhere...important...before....\" She told Alexander, blushing and looking down slightly.

He grinned, walking to her and lifting her fringe out from under the band, letting the short hairs hang over it, he kissed her forehead softly. \"Dont worry, im sure its mainly for you just to make an appearance, so they know of you.\" He suggested, hoping that it was nothing more. Taking her hand softly, he lead her outside the room and down the hall to the main throneroom, he followed the scents as usual, he didnt know how people got along in this place without a keen nose to lead them everywhere. He watched above, seeing people flying overhead in the domed hallways.

Kakurine looked up to stare at the flying Winglies moving so gracefully. She felt a little envious. She was so small, with much shorter wings than most of the other Winglies around her. She then blinked, wondering why she was envious. Natural envy from a Wingly, perhaps? She began to wonder, if she was indeed a princess, then why was it that she remembered living in the forests alone since she was a toddler? Stealing for food, becoming dirty and cold during the nights? Once more, she shut her mind off of those memories, walking close to Alexander. The present was all that mattered.

He smiled softly, rounding the corner, he looked at the long table... there were three different kinds of winglies it seemed, ones with White wings, ones with black, and another three with a sort of purpleish touch to thier feathers. He lowered his eyes slightly, letting go of her hand as the Queen adressed her.
\"Princess Kakurine, everyone.\" Sh said softly, each of them seeming to raise an inspecting Eyebrow upon her. Ashules, Sitting next to two empty chairs on the right side of the cherry oak table, smiled lightly at her reassuringly.
\"Kakurine, these people are the royal families of the nearby Factions, im sure you have been told... the birth of a healthy leader is also crutial to them.. we are all linked.\" He Explained slowly, then motioned for them to sit. Alexander huffed slightly, not liking having Kakurine on display like this, taking her softly around the waist and leading her to sit.
\"dont worry...\" He whispered softly into her ear, taking a seat next to a girl with long black hair and similar wings, her striking honey orbs made him a little uneased as he smiled lightly, taking his seat. she only seemed to scowl. Clearing his throat, Ashules spoke softly to the group.
\"Everything has gone as prepared... we should know by tonight if it was sucessful\" He said softly, they all nodded, glancing to Kakurine.

Kakurine lowered her eyes as she felt the eyes glancing at her. As she sat down, her wings curved to her shoulders, resting there to be comfortable. They were expecting so much from her, but births could go so wrong, so she had heard... The babe could be too big, and kill the mother in process. It could come out too early, and die... So much could go wrong, and she wan\'t exactly the \'best fit\' Wingly for such an important task... She raised her eyes slowly, a tinge of blush in her cheeks from the timidness of being around so many people.

Finally unable to bear the suspense, the small voice of the girl next to him piped up.
\"What is this animal doing at this meeting?\" She said coldly, glaring at Alexander. A small growl burned in his throat, but he pushed it off.
\"Ashules... would you care to explain this... predicament?\" He seethed through clenched teeth, but was held off as the meal was being served. After everything had settled down, she continued to look at Ashules. \"Im Waiting.\" He spat, glaring at Alexander for a moment. Ashules sighed.
\"He is.. an attendant of The princess, at her request.\" He said, trying to find the best words. The princess of the other Faction seemed unsatisfied.

Kakurine sighed heavily. Why must they keep calling Alexander an animal? In a sense, all living things were... \"He is my love.\" She corrected. \"I am not shameful, or embarassed in the least. So please, stop calling him an animal. That is no way to address a gentleman.\" She had closed her eyes while she spoke, keeping her own self calm. No, she had no wish to harm anyone, but it did upset her at how no one would accept Alexander...

\"Your Love?\" She said in shock, looking at Ashules. \"Ashules, you cant be serious...\" She rolled her eyes. \"You, have no spine.\" She growled at him, ruffling her wings and looking away, finished with the subject. The table became silent, Alexander using every fibre of his being not to kill everyone at the table. He knew the only one out of them that could give him any trouble was Ashules, but he would better him eventually. Sighing softly, he leanded back, remembering all the comforts of home, Little Summer and Anna... He knew they wew fine, and even as timid as Anna was, she was still a vampire, and vicous in her day, he grinned at the memories. Conversations went on around him but he paid no mind. they didnt give a damn what this \"animal\" thought.

Barely speaking a word, Kakurine merely ate the meal set infront of her. She was not in the mood to converse with people who just couldn\'t accept Alexander... She closed her eyes once more, as she ate is silence. She couldn\'t even speak to Ashules, or Alexander at the moment. She just didn\'t feel able to. When she finished, she looked at Alexander, sighing gently. Perhaps in their time of staying in the palace, they might see how wonderful he was.

Eventually the quiet meal ended, Alexander off in his own thoughts for most of it, untill the Queen brushed her knife against one of thier glasses. \"Alright, the reason you have all come for. Kakurine? Would you follow me?\" She asked lightly, stepping away from her chair and leading to that familiar inspection room. Waiting inside for kakurine to ender.

Kakurine looked down, then rose from the table, turning and walking off to the inspection room. She glanced back at Alexander, then Ashules, before going into the inspection room. She rested one hand on her belly when she entered. Perhaps this time, there was a babe growing in there... She\'d hate to go back with Ashules in that room...How would Alexander feel...? She lowered her hands, looking up. \"I\'m a little nervous...\" She admited to the queen.

The Queen smiled lightly, laying a gentle hand on her shoulder. \"I know... Im sure you do not wish to go through this again... but... well, lets just hope you dont feel it.\" She said assuredly, patting lightly on her shoulder before then placing it on her lower abdomen. \"Alright darling, please tell me if you feel it. even slightly, for that might mean there is something problematic.\" She said softly, hoping against hope that she wouldnt feel a thing.

She lowered her eyes to the hand on her belly. Would one time get her with child...? She bit her lip as she watched her hand for a moment. There was a moment of silence, as she seemed unknowing when she had started. But then she murmured, \"I....I-I don\'t feel anything...\" She said, looking down still. Once more, she was half-way glad, and half-way in despair... How would Alexander react...Would he be more distant to her...?

\"Are you absolutely sure?\" The queen asked, but by the look on Kakurines face, she was pretty sure that the tingle was not felt. \"Wonderful...\" She wispered, lifting her fingers from Kakurine. \"You... Are with Child.\" She seemed so happy. \"Now, I must warn you. Ashules will become... somewhat worrisome, and wanting to know how you feel, really just annoying. \" She laughed, shaking her head lightly. \"Winglie men become more like Women durning pregnacy than we do. But dont worry. He\'ll be fine. OH, and one more thing. PLease.. refrian from love making for about a week or two, so as not to rupture the implantation.\"

\"Alright...\" She said softly, looking up at the queen. \"That sounds...just the opposite to humans...\" She chuckled weakly. Now she would have to take care of herself better since she now had a babe in her stomach. She looked down at it in wonder. How could something be growing in her small form...She knew in the end it would be rather painful. Worryingly, she hoped she would not grow attatched to the child...Alexander may not like that... She sighed. \"I guess...we tell them the news...?\"

She nodded quickly. \"OH yes, of course \" She opened the curitain, smiling up a storm. \"Yes.. Things seem to be carrying on well.\" A small sigh of relif came from the Table, Ashules seemed to be in shock, but then smiled, brightly up to her. Alexander, who also forced a smile to his lips, looking at her lovingly... but also a little sadly. Ashules gave her something he never could.... so many things he couldnt give her. A proper home, a family... he looked to the ground, clenching his fist slightly.

Kakurine looked down, blushing. She was frowning, and then said, \"Excuse me, please...\" suddenly rushing out the hall. She felt ill in her stomach, most likely at the news she had recieved about being with child now. She ignored any curious glances from other Winglies, as she went into her room, shutting the door behind her, and walking slowly to the window, sinking to her knees as she leaned against it. She knew Alexander was upset, and it upset her stomach to think about it.

Alexander rose quickly \"excuse me.\" He mumbled, going after her down the hall. Ashules seemed to get the same idea, excusing himself and Flying overhead. Alexander looked up, growling.
\"Stay away from her!\" He barked, Ashules landed infront hof him hautily, somewaht taller, but they seemed to meet almost eye to eye.
\"You Seem to forget she carries my kin.\" He said pompously, looking at him evenly. Alexander growled deeply.
\"Against her will, you are more monster than I will ever be\" He snarled, Ashules rolled his eyes.
\"Its her Duty to her kind, just as it was mine. You should stop causing so much stress on her, your nothing but a selfish beast.\" He barked back, pushing him back with a Powerful wing. \"Leave her Alone alexander. Your not right for her.\" He said, continuing on down the hallway. Alexander sighed.... Was he right? Was he not the one to be with Kakurine? All signs pointed to yes... everything seemed as if it werent meant for them. He sighed, looking out a nearby window...the moon was that much closer to being full. He huffed, turning in the opposite direction.

A knock came on kakurines door. \"Kaku? Are you in there?\" Ashules said gently.

\"Y-Yes...\" Came a soft reply from inside the room. \"C-Can you bring me a chamber pot...? I\'m afraid...I am not feeling too well right now...\" She murmured, just loud enough for him to hear her from the other side of the door. She was leaning over the window, head down, the breeze from the outside brushing her hair out of her eyes. She thought Alexander would be the first one to her room... But maybe not... Afterall, it was Ashules who was the father of the babe growing in her.

The door opened slowly, as he walked in and reached under the bed, placing it beside her as she leaned out the window. He sat on the edge, softly placing her hair behind her Ears. \"Kakurine... I know this is all very knew to you... But, Its just the way things are. There is nothing you, or I , can do.... You musnt stress so much over it, this could be mighty benifitail.... You will be treated like what you are... a princess.\" He murmured, leanding down to kiss her temple. \"know that the neighbouring Factions know that things are underway, the only bothering they shall do of you is merely checkups. But im afriad you wont be rid of me.\" He smiled lightly, turning her face in his direction with the gentlest hands.

She was looking pale, somewhat tired, even though she had had enough sleep the other night. Her stomach rolled again, but she ignored the feeling for now. \"I-I know...I\'m just...frightend of this...I can\'t explain it... I\'m afraid it will all go wrong...And I might lose the babe, or even my own life...\" She shivered, looking down. Then unable to control it any longer, she pushed herself away from the window, and heaved into the chamber pot, emptying her belly of that morning\'s meal. When it all settled down for her to speak again, she placed one hand on the wall. \"How...can I be a princess...I\'ve lived in the forest...since I was a toddler...and then I was captured and made a slave...\"

He sighed lightly, rubbing her back, then answering her question. \"Your father... was a strong, powerful, and fearsome winglie, more powerful physically and mentally in terms of magic than any other Winglie... He was married to the queen. But apparently, he had fallen in love with a mortal, running away from his duty and having her bear a child for him.... you, Kakurine. They had not wished to find you... you were only of half blood. But when the queen became unable to bear after your fathers assassination... You were the last resort. Thats why you were abandoned in the forest.... and how you are here today. I was sent on a search for many years for you Kakurine... I had hoped to find you sooner.. but once you became a slave, i lost the trial, taking me that much longer to find you \"

Kakurine continued to lean over the chamber pot. Her belly heaving once more, but nothing coming out, since her stomach was already empty. She wiped her mouth off, before starting to rise shakily to her feet, her knees wobbling beneathe her. She moved to the bed, sitting on it. \"Can I please be left...alone now...? I need to lie down...\" She murmured softly, looking down. She leaned back on the bed, her wings drooping as she laid down on it.

He sighed softly, nodding. \"Dont stress yourself.... its bad for the baby..\" He mumbled, stepping out of the room. Shutting the door behind him, he heard a strange sort of growling, a snarling, He furrowed his eyebrows, walking in the direction of the Noise... He stopped, leaning up against the wall, hiding himself. The sight before him was startling to sat the least. Massive leathery wings entended over a powerful back, hiding was seemed to be a tiny, trembling girl... The princess of the other faction, her black wings struggled to lift her away, the snarling beast that held her, restrained. Ashules moved ever so slightly to unsheath his blade, which caused the twitching of The beasts slightly pointed ears, releasing the girl just long enough for her to escape... but it didnt seem to notice, sniffing the air. Before it had a moment to respond, Ashules leapt, pinning it to the ground with the blade through his shoulder, mumbling words that caused blue rings to spinn around his wrists, restraining him. \"Call the gaurds...\" He mumbled, reconginzing the monster... Alexander.

Kakurine was resting in bed, but then she heard the familiar growling noises, and her eyes opened. \'Alexander!\' Her mind screamed, and she got up from the bed. She walked to the door, going slowly due to her still upset stomach. It felt as if the babe inside of her was trying to make her acknowledge it\'s existance. She leaned against the wall as she walked down the halls, soon coming into the hall where Ashules had Alexander pinned. She gasped slightly, walking a bit quicker. \"Alexander!... Ashules, please, release him.\"

Alexander growled feverently, roaring as the Blade slipped out of his shoulder, leaving a gaping wound that did not bleed. \"You Might not want to do that.\" He growled Sadistically, watching Ashules closely with those Icy blue pupiled eyes. \"If He lets me up.. Ill kill him. Rapist.\" He spat in a snarling voice, then glancing to Kakurine. \"And your nothing but a Whore. Dont lie to me, I can see inside your head.. I know you liked it.\" He watched her, angrily. His beast was speaking for him now in his rage, but something was wrong, why had he transformed?

Kakurine looked at him, her eyes wide. \"Alexander...\" She murmured, looking down. Was she a whore? Why had she liked what Ashules had done to her...? Tears formed in her eyes, and even though it had been so long since last she had cried, a tear fell down her cheek. She breathed slowly. \"If you think that way...Alexander...\" She said slowly, her voice barely able to contain the shaking inside of it. \"Then you should leave...Go back to Anna and Summer...I\'m sure they are worried about you, and miss you...\" She turned, and walked slowly back to the room, the only sound coming from her then was that of the shutting of the door.

Another roar came from him, As Ashules scowled at Alexander, struggling against the floor.
\"Shut Up you stupid beast.\" He barked, one of the gaurds slapped him across the face with the side of his boot. \"Lock him in the dungeon untill he calms down.\" He sighed softly, going After kakurine. He could feel Alexanders life force.. this wasnt him, And as much as he hated to Admit it, Alexander did love Kakurine. The most distaining feature were those massive wings... He had seen them somwhere before, but he could not remember where. \"Kaku!\" Ashules called, jogging down the hallway to her room as it took almost 30 gaurds to cart away the bound Alexander.

Kakurine was on her knees, hiding behind her bed, bent over slightly. Her breaths were shaking as she breathed in and out slowly, tears pouring down her cheeks and onto the floor. She was speaking to herself, her voice choaked in restraint. \"Alexander m-must hate me now...\" She spoke to herself, ignoring Ashules\' calls for her. \"H-He must never want to t-touch me, or even l-look at me again...W-Why did I have to do this...? Now my l-love must not l-love me anymore... How c-could I b-betray him so...\" She cried softly, her head behind her arms.

He opened the door, hearing her cries, he looked to the ground. \"Kaku...\" He mumbled, walkind behind the bed where she had hidden herself. He Had noticed how Alexander acted around her, forceful, but loving. He Sighed gently, unable to think of aThing to say... \"Kakurine... What happened to him?\" He asked, he needed to understand. He knelt down next to her, moving her small body and holding her in his arms, trying to comfort her trembling form.

\"I-It must be that time again...\" She whispered to herself. \"M-Maybe he doesn\'t hate me...Maybe it\'s just because of the moon...\" She barely noticed Ashules was there, her blood-colored eyes staring off at the wall, tears still pouring freely out of the socket. Her stomach began to roll again, but she ignored it. There was nothing left in her to get rid of, anyway. \"Is it the f-full moon already...?\" She looked up at the window. She appeared to be asking herself, not really acknowleging that Ashules was next to her.

Ashules shook his head slightly, only holding her closer, not wanting to feel her tremble. \"Kakurine...\" He whispered. He had heard of these. The Davies Vampires... part winglie, though they never knew it. Giving them those massive wings and magic, but the magic made them crazy, and they resorted back to thier natural Vampire instincts. \"Of Course it is.. he.. he loves you more than anything.\" Ashules bit his bottom lip, he hated saying that... but now he knew. Alexander was capible of loving... he was part winglie.

Her tremblings remained for a moment, before finally they started to slow, then eventually cease. The tears that came off of her face now were the ones on her cheeks. She looked up at him, her eyes almost completely red from her crying. \"A-Are you sure...B-but...you...and everyone else said...vampires c-can\'t love...\" Her voice sounded choaked still, but she was starting to calm down, her cheeks still damp from the tears she had shed.

He Smiled lightly, whiping her eyes of thier tears with the silky fabric of his shirt. \"Maybe.... Maybe I was wrong. You should go to him later... We contained him downstairs untill hes calmed down.. give him a while... your tired. He lifted her up, placing her on the bed, pulling a blanket over her. \"Please sleep. Im not leaving untill i know you are.\" He smiled, brushing her hair out of her tear reddened eyes.

She breathed lightly, not responding. But then, she murmured, \"Alright...I will...\" After having such an outburst, her body felt drained of all energy. She didn\'t even have enough to submit herself to her morning sickness. Her worn eyes closed slowly, as she laid her head back, a couple of quick breaths coming from her every once in a while, but she then relaxed enough to sleep, her wings drapping over the sides of the bed, stretching out, then relaxing.

Ashules felt his chest burn with how much he cared for her... he watched her sleeping face for what felt like hours... only to end up falling sleep, curling her into his chest and holding her close, protective of her and thier kin. He awoke early in the evening, looking to her softly, he kissed her forehead with soft lips, and slipped out from under the sheets, letting her sleep. He needed to have a chat with Alexander.
Taking quick steps down the stairs into the dungeon, his wings rilled slightly, he looked into Alexanders containment, his arms bound above his head, head lolling downwards in exaustion. He looked down, seeing his chest was dirty and somwhat bloody, long, sharp scratches going down his chest, and apparently over his back. The Bastards had beaten Alexander Unjustly.
\"Wake Up!\" He yelled, Alexanders head shot up, a snarl comming from him in warning. he squinted slightly, seeing it was Ashules. \"Oh.. What do you want.\" He Spat, Ashules rolled his eyes.
\"Im sorry for your treatment, this was never meant to happen.\"
\"Im sure, As you bed my mate.\" He Snarled. Ashules sighed.
\" I want to help you get this beast out of your head.\" He said softly, Alexander rose an eyebrow,
\"Do what you want.\" He mumbled, to tired to listen anymore.
Ashules opened the gate to the cage they had him in, kneeling next to Alexander, who was breathing rather heavily. He placed a hand on his forehead... he could feel the magic spinning in his mind, making him unable to control himself. With the mumbling of a few small words, gthen feeling the fire from his mind burn his hand slightly, he hauled back, cursing as steam rose from his hand. Alexander blinked a few times. \"who are you?\"

Kakurine curled up on the bed, not used to sleeping alone. She had grown accustomed to sleeping with Alexander, and Ashules often reminded her of him. She moaned, and rolled onto her back. She was dreaming, her ears occasionally twitching. She pictured her mother in her mind, rocking her on her lap. Her lips were moving, but no words came out. She looked so foggy, so bright, it was hard to see her... Then she heard screams in her dream, and she shot up, panting. Moaning, she rubbed her eyes, looking around, before she slowly got off of the bed. She\'d go see Alexander, as Ashules told her she should do.

Ashules Looked confused. \"Alexander?\" He asked, furrowing his eyebrows.
\"Who\'s Alexander?\" Alexander said softly, then looking above him, and bellow. \"Where Am I? Why am I bound?\" He asked angrily, glaring at Ashules. He looked completely bemused. Had he sucked out Alexanders memory, or had the removal of magic simply caused temporary amesia? \"You... Your Alexander. Im Ashules. \" He said in an almost childlike way, pointing to each of them in turn. \" Oh... How do you know who I am.. And I do not?\"

Kakurine was only able to walk slowly down to where Alexander was. Her stomach still rolled and twisted occasionally with the morning sickness that came usually with having a child. But she had not eaten anything again, so nothing would come out. When she reached the room, her hand weakly grasped the handle, opening it slowly. She then walked in, looking up at Ashules. \"Ashules...Is Alexander awake...?\" She stood in the doorway, leaning against the frame.

Ashules looked up slightly. Kakurine. \"Uhh... Hold on.\" He mumbled, picking himself up and releasing him from the bonds on his wrists, he sighed lightly, rubbing them thoughtfully. He thought for a moment.... The last thing he remembered was buying a slave... how did he end up here? Ashules looked at Kakurine. \"Uhh... Yes, you can see him if you like.\" He mumbled, rubbing the back of his head... what could be possibly do?

She walked in a little more, still going slowly. When she saw the scratches on Alexander, she gasped softly. \"What happend to him??\" She hurried over, forgetting all about her sick-feeling, and the babe inside of her, as she looked at Alexander. \"Who did this to him?\" She asked Ashules, looking up at him with wide eyes, before she looked at Alexander, hugging him. \"Alexander, I\'m so sorry...Truely I am... I shouldn\'t have lost myself like that...Are you mad at me...?\"

Alexander looked confused, watching his slave throw herself on him, \"NO... im not. But his is a bit much...\" He mumbled, pulling himself up. \"Can someone explain to me where I am, and how come my Slave is throwing herself at me and apologizing?\" He asked stoically, glaring down to her, he stood in his normal way, cocky, confident. \"Id Also like to know who did this to me, Ill enjoy ripping out thier hearts. \" He said coldly.... Ashules shook his head.
\"Kakurine... Hes lost his memory... Its my fault. I tired to help him... rid the magic in his mind... but It seems to have triggered amesia.\" He replied, unable to look at her. \"\"Im not sure if it will come back... \" He bit his bottom lip. Alexander scoffed. \"Lost my memory? I doubt it. I remember buying that slave, and there she is.\" He muttered, \"But this place... and you, I dont remember.\" He wobbled a little, clutching his shoulder, it was bleeding slightly now. \"He needs care. Please, retrive a nurse, take him upstairs.\" He mumbled, the few gaurds downstairs escorting him up, Alexander looked bemused.

\"Isn\'t there anyway you can put the magic back?\" Kakurine asked Ashules, her eyes looking up at him. She had frowned when he refered her to being his slave again. She sighed softly. What was it that she could do? If she knew magic herself, she may be able to come up with a soulution, but, she didn\'t know a single thing about magic. She wouldn\'t leave Alexander\'s side, though, almost wanting to cling at his arm, but she resisted. Her stomach started to growl slightly in hunger.

He sighed, walking behind them as they lead him upstairs. \"I-I dont know... I worry that if i try to bring the magic back then he might become perminately insane. Thats the last thing we need, hes much more powerful in that form than normal, a formitible power.\" He sighed, shaking his head. \"A few tennants have gone to asked the Queen if she knows of anything, she is much more talented in magic than most. \" He added. Alexander was weakening, having to be held up by a few gaurds. The three females who had tended on her lead them into a room, laying him back on a simple bed. They were also nurses it seemed, frightened of the massive beast, bloodied and dirty.

Kakurine bit her bottom lip, standing next to Alexander, brushing his hair lightly, as if petting him the same way he would to her. \"So...do you think that he will remember again soon...?\" She asked Ashules, looking up at him while she stayed by Alexander\'s side. She loved him too much, she would never leave his side... She continued to brush Alexander\'s hair gently with her fingers, looking down at his chest which was bleeding. She was still frowning.

\"I Hope so. A Confused person this powerful could be as dangerous. Stay with him, your the only one around he remembers so far. \" Ashules said, While the girls moved around him, cleasnsing his wounds, filling the cuts with salve and healing herbs, he lay exausted, mighty chest heaving and falling gently. \"Slave...\" He whispered, glancing to her slightly. \"I.. Never got your name.\" He asked softly. Something for her stirred within him, it wasnt just the sample of her blood he had gotten.

Reaching for his hands, she grapsed them, her soft, feminine touch brushing against them comfortingly. \"I\'m Kakurine, remember...?\" She asked, looking down at Alexander, forcing a soft smile. She tilted her head down, and kissed his forehead. \"I hope you get better soon, Alexander... I hate seeing you in pain...\" Her crimson gaze looked down at him, then lingered to his wounds. Her thumbs rolled over his hands gently, massaging them.

He smiled lightly, wondering why her touch filled him with this odd feeling... She was just his slave.. he had many others before... A growl shot out of him as lightening fast he grasped the girls hand, running just under his navel. \"Enough.\" He said commandingly, she nodded, blushing brightly, the others moved off as well, thier work was done, he watched them scurry out of the room, his eyes going back to Kakurine. \"Dont Worry little one.... This will heal quickly.\" He said reasuringly. Little one? Now hiow had that come out so easily? He shurrged.. maybe there was something missing.

Her eyes brightend when he called her \'little one\'... Perhaps he would remember soon. She sighed, laying her head down next to him, pressing her cheek against him. Her stomach once more rumbled in hunger. But she knew if she ate, she would just heave it all out later... She knew women who were pregnant would often feel morning sickness; but she also knew that they would have to eat more, to support them and the child. She closed her eyes, sighing. \"I love you Alexander...Please, at least...remember that...\" She whispered.

He Felt a little odd, hearing her say that. Love?... He simply stroked her hair with his large hand, then his slightly pointed ears twitched slightly. \"Your hungry.... No poession of mine goes without food.\" He whispered to her, looking up to Ashules. \"You there.... Ashules.\" He said softly, Ashules looked to him. \"Can you get her something to eat? shes starving.\" He said softly. He notioced the look in her eyes... \"and.. have it brought here.\" He smiled, knowing she did not want to leave.

Kakurine looked up at Alexander, and smiled more brightly. He seemed to be starting to remember... She sighed, dropping to her knees, laying her head next to him. Kakurine reached up and grabbed his hands once more, rubbing them. \"Is your pain unbearable...?\" She asked in concern, looking down at him lovingly. \"I hope not...Is there anything I can do to make you feel better?\"

He smiled lightly. \"No, im fine. Just a little tired...\" He yawned at the mention of that, The room still containing few individuals Queens tennants... ones believing the Davies Clan and died out years ago. But apparently not. Ashules shooed them out of the room, then leaving himself, followed behind by a young servant boy who had brought them a platter of fruits, eggs, bacon toast and anything else one could think of. He grinned, using a single arm to hoist himself into a sitting possision, the other pulling her up onto the bed. \"there...eat as much as you can, you look starved.\"

\"I don\'t know if I can...\" She murmured sadly. But she reached out, taking a bite of the toast, nibbling on it slowly. She couldn\'t eat too fast, or else her stomach would reject the food again. She swallowed the bread in her mouth, sighing once more, before nibbling again. Eating slowly, she took a bit of fruit, nibbling again.

He smiled lightly, picking up a grape and popping it into his mouth, chewing thoughtfully. \"Kakurine... \" He started, swallowing slightly. He didnt know what to say to her. \"what is it exactly that Ive forgotten?\" Hw questioned her, eyes grazing over her form. IT was obvious why he had purchased her. She was lovely, though his memory brought back a more gaunt figure, she had a liight layer of healthy fat now, it made her glow. He smiled, watching those wings, her radiant eyes... lust stirred in him, but he rejected it. now was not the time.

\"Would you like for me to tell you everything...?\" She asked, one hand brushing his hair again lovingly, as she set down the fruit she had been eating. She couldn\'t eat anymore for the moment. \"I\'m certain you remember purchessing me. Do you remember how Wyvern came into the house, and lunged at me? And he drank my blood, and you threw him out, lifting me up and taking me upstairs. You stayed with me all night that night. You wouldn\'t leave my side.\" She smiled at him still.

He Didnt remember... but it didnt matter, his own actions seemed to amaze him, usually he wouldnt do a single thing to disrupt or cause bad buisness, especially with Wyvern, is wealthy tennant. \"Oh? Doesnt sound like me.\" He grinned a little shaking his head. \"Sounds like Wyvern though. Ass.\" He murmured, feeling her hand in his hair, he grinned, taking her wrist and placing her tiny hand in his. \"Tell me more.\" He asked curiously.

She smiled softly. \"There was the time I first saw you transform...\" She murmured. \"You were going to hurt me on the first night, you came into the room, but when I asked you to stop, you did, and let me go. And the next night, I admited to you that I loved you, and we spent the night together in your room...Surely you must remember that...? Our first time...?\" She asked, her hands rubbing his.

He felt even worse now, his expression changing, he looked down, shaking his head.. \"No... but I wish I did... Im sure IT was wonderful..\" He murmured, looking up to her. He looked exaused, and so did she. \"Come.. lets get some sleep... this whole ordeal might be over in the morning.\" He said softly, pulling back the shets and laying one against his chest so she would not have to lay on the cremes and such. He felt an urge to hold her, to comfort her.

Kakurine let out a sigh, and nodded slowly, smiling sadly down at him. Then she laid down near him, curling up into him as she always did, pressing her face gently into him. \"I love you, Alexander...\" She whispered softly against him, her wings curving up and laying very gently on him, as she settled into the bed with him. \"Sleep well...\" She murmured to him, as her eyes closed slowly, and she fell asleep right next to him, a soft smile remaining on her face.

He smiled, holding her close, wrapping those powerful, leathery wings over her body protectively. \"I Will always protect you Kakurine...\" He whispered softly, unkown to him why he felt this urge... he sighed, slipping quickly into sleep.
Alexander sighed softly, awakening to the sound of a knock at the door. \"Come in..\" He mumbled sleepily, his eyes had returned to normal, the crazed blue pupils and black iris\'s dissapeared with the magic he lost... but the size, strength, and powerful wings remained. The door opened slowly, A small, elderly woman poked her nose in. Alexander smelt, recongizing it was royalty. He would have sat up, but with Kakurine sleeping on his chest he did not move. \"Yes?\" He said softly
\"Alexander... I have good news, and bad.\" He furrowed his eyebrows. \"The Loss of memory is indeed temporary, and will return in less than a fortnight according to our research. IT is old. but acurate. \" He wraut her wrinkled hands together nervously.
\"So whats the bad news then?\" He asked, tensing slightly.
\"You will... remain. Like this. without the magic there, you cant contain a normal vampire outlook. your half winglie, and vampire. Stronger than both.... I hope this isnt a problem.\" He shook his head lightly
. \"As long As Kakurine doesnt...\" He murmured, kissing her forehead, he would ask her when he awoke. The Queen smiled.
\"I have even better news.. but that will come later. Please, sleep.\" He smiled, then exitiing the room.

After a while, Kakurine soon shifted awake, yawning widely. She wasn\'t wanting to move too much, afraid she might stir her morning sickness. She sighed softly to herself. She hoped that this lingering sickness would soon fade with time...She\'d hate to go around like this for nine months... She leaned up slowly, looking down at Alexander, smiling and kissing him softly on the lips. She then withdrew, looking down at his form and smiling.

He Grinned, kissing her back gently, hugging her form to his. \"I Have good news.\" He murmured, rubbing her arms softly. \"Apparently, my memory will be back in less than two weeks...\" He sighed, looking at her, she was so lovely... would she mind him like this? Was she only adoring to him in the form because it was temporary? He sighed softly. \"But... Ill remain in this form. Forever.\" He said softly, biting the corner of his lip. He almost looked boyish in his worriedness.

\"As long as you\'re still my Alexander, I will not mind what you look like.\" She said, hugging him gently. \"I\'m glad your memory will be back... It doesn\'t matter to me how you look, my love. I\'ll always love you. I\'ll always care about you. And no matter who will try to please me, it will always be you who pleases me the best.\" She kissed his lips again, sighing and laying her head gently on his chest.

He smiled, glad for this answer, he glanced beneath the blanket on his chest, he grinned, noticing how rapidly he had healed, only 3 long marks remained on his chest, seeming like they might scar, he furrowed his brows slightly. The rest had returned to its natural smoothness. He looked over to her, feeling so happy about her response, he grinned devilishly. \"So.. what was our first time like...\" He asked curiously, pulling himself up, grinning as he loomed over her. He was much larger, his wings making him look even more so, Little Kakurine bellow him... he felt as if he knew, things were comming back to him rapidly. But he didnt tell her, wanting her to describe it as he kissed her neck softly.

She sighed happily. \"It was wonderful. You made sure you wouldn\'t hurt me when you took my virginity... You pulled up my nightgown as you hovered over me. You kissed me all over, teased me...\" She smiled, rubbing his cheek gently with her hand. \"Then when you entered, it was the most wonderful feeling I ever felt. You were slow, then you sped up, and we both came at the same time...It was the most wonderful feeling I had ever felt.\" She told him.

He grinned, nodding. \"Oh... I sound wonderful.\" He teased, licking her neck softly, running hid hands over her flesh. \"Would you like to refresh my memory?\" He laughed at the pun, flashing strait white teeth down to her. Kissing her softly on the lips, but dominantly, showing that he loved being in charge. A grin ran over his lips, parting her legs so he could get closer to her small body, kissing her slight shoulders gently.

She let out a tiny moan, but then with a painful ache, she remembered what the queen had told her. Sadly, hesitaintly, she had to push Alexander away. \"I-I\'m sorry...Alexander...\" She whispered, her head down. \"But the queen said...I should not make love to anyone for a week or two...\" She looked up slowly, her eyes reflecting guilt and pain once more. She bit her lip. \"Do you remember...? Of course not...Alexander... I\'m with child...Ashules\' child...remember...? For the Winglies, I had to sleep with him...\" She whispered, feeling shame well up inside her again.

He shook his head slightly, but then nodded. \"No.. but...Im sure theres an explaination....\" He mumbled lightly, pulling himself up. \"But If you say so.\" He mumbled, kissing her softly. Within that moment, a Knock came on the door. \"Princess? You and your ....tennant. are to meet the queen in her throneroom for important news. \" the little winglie said, bowing and then retreating, closing the door behind him. Alexander cocked an eyebrow. \"were in want apparently.\" He said, yawning a little and slipping on one of thier many garments, seeming to be a navy blue Haori, he shurgged, pulling it on.

Kakurine seemed relieved he wasn\'t mad at her again. Kakurine rose slowly from the bed, steadying herself on her feet. She looked at him, and smiled. It seemed like she wasn\'t going to get sick now. She took his hand. \"Well, let\'s go.\" She smiled weakly, as she led him out to the throneroom, heading to meet the queen. She wondered what this news was...She hoped it wasn\'t anything bad...

They walked mostly in silence. Alexander was still so confused, his Wings twitched slightly when he was deep in thought. Ashules... she was carrying his child? But... She was in love with him?... He was so confused, wishing his memories were restored desperately. He entered the throneroom with her, looking around with new eyes, he had not seen anyof this before, to his memory... but it was slowly comming back to him. Things looked more familiar. He looked up to the queen curiously. \"so.. whats this big news?\" He asked. She seemed as if she was going to burst. \"well... We\'ve discovered your Linkage, Alexander. You are my sisters, daughters son. Making you a Lord.\" He rose an eyebrow, having known very little about his parents. \"Also! Any children you have with Kakurine... will be legitimate in the eyes of our laws, and accepted into the royal family because of his winglie blood. No only that, any children you may have... wont be vicious, blood sucking animals, as they will only be a quarter vampire.\" Alexander smiled lightly... children had never been an option for him.

Kakurine seemed brightend to this news. After she would birth Ashules\' child, she could have one with Alexander! Which was what she wanted. She threw her arms around Alexander. \"That\'s wonderful news!\" She said, looking up at him, then smiled lightly and lowered her arms. \"Isn\'t this wonderful, Alexander? After my duty is done, we can have children of our own!\" She smiled brightly up at him.

He looked totally bemused. \"Wonderful\" He murmured in a shocked state. Shaking it off, he looked down to her, kissing her softly. \"Yes.. Its wonderful...\" He murmured more atttentively. \"Well surely have lots of fun..\" He whispered, out of earshot of anyone else, grinning devilishly. The Queen interupted. \"Actually darling... even if something goes wrong with your pregnancy... Alexanders child could pass as our next leader, as it would still be powerful, if not more powerful than Ashules kin.\" Ashules shot her a glare, but remained stoic for the most part.

She sighed in great relife. Even if something would go wrong... She laid a hand on her belly. She didn\'t want anything to go wrong, but she\'d feel better if she was carrying Alexander\'s babe, instead of Ashules\'. \"Thank you for the news.\" She told the queen, bowing slightly. But then she felt that awful familiar roll in her stomach. She frowned, and bit her lip. \"I\'m sorry, but I must go now...\" She rushed out of the room once more, going into her room, and heaving into the chamber pot once more. To her knowledge, she knew this would only last for a month...But what a month it was going to be.

Alexander bowed lightly, taking his leave and following Kakurine. \"Kaku!\" He called to her, half laughing, he knew it wasnt much fun for her, but her awkwarness with pregnancy was so cute and adorable he couldnt help himself. More memories came flooding back to him suddenly... Summer. Anna...and having playfight with him. He smiled, glad he was remembering things more rapidly.. but he flet worried about Anna And summer.. he was thier protection.

Kakurine was leaned over the chamber pot again, moaning as she heaved and emptied out her stomach more. Coughing, she rubbed her mouth with the back of her hand, sighing as she felt her stomach settling once more. \"A-Alexander...?\" She called out weakly, before her head ducked down, heaving out more of the food she had eaten earlier.

Alexander approached the room, smiling softly seeing her bent over the pot once again, the poor girl, he thought to himself, walking in a kneeling next to her, laying a hand on her back, gently rubbing. \"Dont worry love, soon this will be over... and you can sit back and watch your child grow.\" He murmured, a pang of jealousy in his stomach, making him growl inwardly, but pushing it off. Ashules. His child.... He couldnt imagine Kakurine with him... it hurt to much. He was almost glad he could not remember that.

\"I\'m afraid, Alexander...\" Kakurine admited to him. \"So much could go wrong...And I don\'t think I can have the strength to have a child in a few months. I just....I\'m not recovered completely from being a slave...\" Her wings sagged by her sides. \"And I wanted my first child to be with you...\" She murmured, wiping her mouth off gently. \"And now I hear that...that we could\'ve had a child, and they\'d still accept it...but it\'s too late now, and I feel so shameful for having to lay with \'him\'...\" She didn\'t want to say Ashules, afraid it might make Alexander angry.

His expression softened lightly, his own leathery wings drooping downwards, he cupped his large hand beneath her chin, kissing her forehead softly. \"Do not worry my darling... You will be fine, you just have to make youself eat that little bit more...\" He said softly, his touches were gentle, feeling like he could hurt her so easily now that he was in this form perminately. He sighed softly. \"I dont care that you were with ashules.. I know it wasnt something you wanted. And thats all i need to know. You did it for your kind... our kind.\"

\"I don\'t think I can eat...Everytime I do....\" She said nothing more, just gestured to the chamber pot she had emptied her belly into, as she wrapped her arms around him gently. \"Can you help me into the bed...? I think I need to rest for a moment...\" She murmured, as she leaned against him, staying on her knees for fear of her stomach feeling sick again. She sighed softly. Could she really go through this for a few more months? She dropped her eyes down at her abdomen. To think, soon she would be rounder with holding a child... It surprised her that it would be able to happen soon.

He smiled gently, lifting her frail body with ease. He smiled softly down to her, holding her up and pulling back the sheets, before laying them down, sitting on the edge as he played with her her hair gently. \"Dont worry darling.. This morning illness only lasts for about a fortnight. After that youll be fine.\" He reassured, looking around to make sure everything was in order. \"Do you want me to stay with you, or would you rather rest comfortably?\" He asked in his gentle voice, basking the shade of his wings over her.

Kakurine smiled weakly at him. \"If you don\'t mind my constant sickness, could you stay with me?\" She asked him, while she laid in the bed. She sighed in relief when she heard how long it would last. \"As long as it goes away...I wouldn\'t be able to bear having it for the entire time.\" She mummbled slightly, turning her face to the side while she relaxed, closing her eyes. \"Thank you for accepting all of this, Alexander....\" She murmured.

He smiled, noding gently as he pulled himself onto the bed and laying next to her, pulling her closely to him. \"No woman would, no god is that cruel\" he said with a smile, nuzzling her gently. \"accepting it? Of course I would, your... my someone just for me, and no one else. Some silly ritual or people or even being with another would never change that. I know that you feel the same, and know. knowing I can love.. it makes it all the more true.\" He murmured softly, kissing her between sentances.

She smiled and murmured again, \"Thank you...love...\" She yawned, and started to drift off to sleep, close to him. She curled up next to him, smiling happily. Her body was pressed against him, as she wrapped her wings gently around him, feeling more comfortable with knowing he was near. As long as Ashules would not pursue her after having the child, she and Alexander could go back to living together, without these other Winglies around... She breathed in deeply, as all thoughts faded in sleep.




Ironically enough, Kakurine was there, sitting infront of the springs, her feet dipped in lightly. She had pulled the kimono up to her knees, so it would not get wet. She was relaxing for the moment, having able to keep the food down inside of her belly. It was a nice change, she was glad she was remaining full now. Though she had eaten a little more than usual... Her back was against a rock, even them seeming to give off a relaxing heat. Her wings were flexing, as she let out a sigh, eyes closed.

He opened the large door with a soft hum on his lips, his ears twitching slightly when he smelt someone else in there, a smile coming across his features when he recongnised it. \"Kakurine.\" He murmured softly, walking over in her direction and leaving his things of a nearby rock. \"Early morning for you little one?\" He asked with a soft smile, kissing her forehead gently, before easing himself into the hot water infront of her, seething a bit as they came in contact with his cuts and scrapes. He sighed after a moment, looking up to her. \"Have you eaten anything love?\" He asked worriedly, seeing how pale she looked.

Kakurine opened her eyes when she heard him come in, smiling when he was infront of her. She laughed. \"Oh, you\'d have been shocked at how much I ate today. Why, it surprises me.\" She said, looking down at him with an almost embarassed look. \"But you, on the other hand, look like you have eaten. When are you going out to eat?\" She asked. Now it was her turn to be worried, brushing his hair out of his face with her delicate hand, leaning closer to the water.
NightmaresClaws: He leaned his head in her direction as her fingertips grazed his features, he smiled, shruging his shoulders lightly as he opened the granite blue of his eyes. \"Im not sure, whenever I get around it it, im not feeling the hungriest actually... I guess I can do without for longer in this form.\" He murmured with a gentle smile, patting the top of the water gently, he beconed her to join him. \"Comming?\" He asked in a soft voice, making room for her, his large wings creating a sort of current as he moved them.
Winged Kakurine: She gave him a soft smile, before she took off the kimono she was wearing, slipping into the water with him. Letting out a relaxed sigh, she sank in slowly, moving to be right next to him. \"Well, alright. Just be sure you don\'t go hungry yourself.\" She smiled, and kissed him gently on the lips, before moving her wings into the water, dipping them in to relax them more. \"I always feel like I\'m about to fall asleep when I get this relaxed...\" She chuckled, looking up at Alexander.
NightmaresClaws: He Grinned, watching her undress with a scruptious eye, allowing her to sink into the water before him, he slipped his arms around her small form lovingly, dipping into the kiss she had given him. \"Dont worry about me, i\'ll be sure to look after myself.\" He murmured gently kissing her throat gnelty, taking in her sweet scent, always reminding him of a single, perfect rose. He pulled back lightly, kissing her forehead before speaking. \"Where is Ashules? Hes usually in bothering us long before we ever get this comfortable.\" He teased.
Winged Kakurine: Kakurine could not help but laugh. It was true, Ashules always tended to have a knack to barge in when they were comfortable, relaxed, and even intimate. \"I am not sure. I have not seen him all day.\" She told Alexander. \"And here the queen told me that it was the male Wingly who acted more like mothers to the one who holds their child.\" She chuckled weakly, since guilt still knawed at her insides at what she had done. She was glad that she was not showing yet, she didn\'t want Alexander repelled by the fact that someone else\'s child was inside of her.
NightmaresClaws: He growled a little inwardly, but didnt allow his own male poesessivisim to get much farther than that. \"Ah... well.. with that hair sometimes i wonder.\" He grinned a little, pushing it off of his mind as he sat down on one of the outcorppings beneath the water, he pulled her closer to him, sitting her on his lap with a devilish grin. \"None the less, hes not here to bother us..\" Alexander whispered out in a deep voice, nippiing at her collarbone playfully, he pulled her closer to him, his large wings shielding her from any outside eyes, just in case.
Winged Kakurine: \"Yes.\" Kakurine said. \"Don\'t jinx it...\" She teased, kissing him gently on his cheek, letting it trail to his lips. \"Alexander...I don\'t know if you can imagine how much I\'ve missed being close to you... Like when we were back at the house... Undisturbed....\" She sighed sadly, laying her hands on his shoulders, massaging them gently with her tender, slender fingers. Her hands trailed up to his hair, wrapping some of it around her fingers, before letting it fall infront of Alexander\'s face, giving her a reason to brush it away. Smiling her innocent smile, she stared up at his face lovingly.
NightmaresClaws: He could only remember choppy peices of thier intimiate unions, he bit his bottom lip lightly, kisshing her flesh gently. \"I have missed being with you as well Kakurine..\" He whispered softly, letting her lean back into his arms while his fingers danced through the feathers that extended from her shoulder blades, tasting her flesh hungrily, he longed for her so, unknown to him where the passion for her was commong from, but he did not fight it, instead embracing it completely
Winged Kakurine: Smiling and letting out a soft sigh, her wings stretched out, wrapping around his massive form, and her petite one. Those wings that adorned her back were barely big enough to do so, but they managed, adding extra warmth to them. Kakurine shifted lightly on his lap, so she could face him, smiling up at his face. How wonderful he was...this man who she loved... She leaned forward, and kissed him gently on his lips, saying no more words, for the time being. She missed being so close, flesh to flesh with her love...
NightmaresClaws: Alexander loved having her body so close to his, feeling her smooth flesh graze against his own, liting a fire within him for her once again, he knew from her that he had always been passionate for her, and it was obvious why, she was lovely and caring, he nuzzled her back against his supporting hands, his lips grazing the lift of her breasts, letting his tongue flick over the dip between them, he grinned, devilish eyes raising to her, liking the way she curved over his hands so gently.
Winged Kakurine: She let out a sigh of heightend pleasure, letting his tongue dance across her smooth, pale skin. She didn\'t want it to stop. Pressing her lips to his forehead slowly, she let her hands trail down his back. Kakurine didn\'t want anyone, or anything to stop this wonderful, beautiful contact between them. Her mind flashed the times they had made love to eachother, and the pleasure he always brought her. She pledged to herself she would never forget them. \"Alexander...\" She murmured softly.
NightmaresClaws: He growled slightly when she murmured his name, eyes turning upwards once again, his slightly erect self grazing up against her slim legs, he growled gently at the contact. \"Kakurine.. I want you...\" He murmured softly, letting his hands trail down to her thighs, rubbing the outsides gently, he lingered them closer to her central points, letting his thumb graze over it gently, his eyes remaining on her, resisting the urge to take her roughly right there... He nipped her gently, lettting a small dab of blood appear on her chest, he licked it off heatedly, lovng how her flavor made him even that much more lustful for her.
Winged Kakurine: As her mouth open, and soft moan emerged, her hands trailing down to his erection, teasing the tip of it with her fingers slowly. \"Alexander....\" She murmured out to him again, letting her hands dance over his flesh as his were doing to her. \"I want you too....I love you so much, Alexander...\" She kissed him passionatly, letting go of him and reaching her arms out to wrap around his shoulders. Her breathing had quickend, as it always did when he aroused her so much.
NightmaresClaws: He growled deeply when her hands went to his member, groaning lgithly in pleasure, his own breathing speeding up as well. \"Kakurine....\" He gassped out, feeling her hasnds leave him and wrap around his neck he took the oppertunity to lift her small form upwards, lowering her slowly onto him, he clenched his teeth slightly, eyes burning a slighty reddish color for only a second untill he was burried within her body, he groaned gently, rocking her form slightly as his lips burried intensely onto hers, his tongue flicking over hers teasingly.
Winged Kakurine: Gasping, she let out another moan, clinging to him tighter, helping him by moving her body with him. She whispered his name over and over again, gripping his shoulders once more, crying out. She was trying to keep herself as quiet as she could, so as not to attract attention from the other Winglies. She wanted no innterruptions this time. She wanted only Alexander and herself, enjoying this contact. Her tongue tasted his mouth, moving around slowly.
