Living in the shadows

[nightray]

I stumble threw the dark ally staggering as sharp pains shut from my neck my hand over the welling blood as I try to escape the dark one. I fall to my knees looking up fear and anger shimmering in my eyes as I see a dark shadow detach form the rest of them slowly gliding tords me it’s moment fluid and predatory. My eyes glaze as the figure steps in to some light. I feel my throat go dry as I see her shadowed form her beauty is beyond describing I feel my self falling in to her eyes as she look in to mine. I watch as she shakes her head slowly disgust in her eyes I cringe as my anger fades replaced with a deep shame that such an angel would be disappointed in me. I faintly hear her say something about inept children at the word children my anger flars up wildly agene thinking she is callmg me a child. I glare up in to her eyes the fear I had felt burning away with the rage building with in me.

I fall agenst the wall waiting for my death as she comes up to me looking deep in to my eyes seeming to read my sole as I feel something brushing my mined. Her mouth curves in to a seductive smile as if she likes what she is finding. I don’t say a word staring her in the eyes my rage fading fear building once agene as I sense something inhuman about her something simuler to the thing that attacked me erlear, but I refuse to look away from my death not wanting her to have the satisfaction of seeing me grovel for my life. She’s not the one that attacked me but she is one of his kind I can sense it in her every move she moves like a born predator but most of all I see it in her eyes.

“You will make a fine hunter.” She says softly as she reaches out and picks me up as if I waid nothing. I feel her lips softly brush mine her tong flicking out and over my lips before her head moves to my throat her tong lapping at the blood still oozing out of the two punchers. I feel her worm breath on my ear. “Did you kill the fledgling that did this is that how you are still alive?” I don’t speck and I sense that she doesn’t expect me to. “Well I’ll finish what he started and teach you how to be even stronger then he obviously was.”

I grown as I feel her teeth sink in to my neck fresh bouts of blood surging out of my body I feel her drinking my hot blood her moans of ecstasy at what she is tasting filling my mind making my cock harden briefly before the lack of blood forces it to go slack once agene regardless of my excitement. I vagly hear her commanding voice in my mind telling me to drink as I feel a searing heat flood my mouth flowing down my throat to my stomach where it slowly begins to spread threw my body. I hear another moan in the distants not realizing that its mine as the darkness enfolds me. The shadows seeming to caress me to comfort and whisper there secrets to me I some how know if I just lesson hard enough I can learn about anything hidden in there depths all the knowledge of the universe waiting for me if I just lesson hard and long enough.

As the darkness begins to enfold me I her voice once more. “Yes you will make a fine night runner my sweet….”

Is this going to be a Vampire: The Masquerade type vampire story, or something else.

I'm good for some diablarie right now...

 

[Mistriss_Isis]

Kassandra stood in the shadows watching her mistress take another human, not being able to help the pout that forms on her perfectly pale lips. Her black painted nails drummed lightly on the hard leather of the corset encasing her bountiful form. Her breasts heaved in mock breath. Her exposed back leaned against the cool stone of the building.

Even as jealously welled within her, she smiled, he would be hers very soon, once her Mistress was finished with him, after that she would tend to him. But until then she stepped lightly from the shadows, letting her blood red hair casscade in soft waves, hiding her golden colored eyes. Standing at her side, she kept watch. No one would get past her.

OOC: It's how ever it terns out I'm not picky I just wiped it up and posted to see what came of it.

 

[Evil Attorney]

The shadows watched the play of the figures they were wrapped around.

A human taken by two vampires out hunting.

How timeless. The hunt. The kill. The lust for the blood...

Who were they...He could see the young one with the red hair clearly...young, not dead a century yet. Not worth his trouble, except for the blood she had in her veins...

Potent blood. Blood she had neither the age, not from seeing her fingernails drum, the dicipline to use properly.

He was an old one, you see. Not as old at the prince who ruled the city, but old none-the-less.

After six centuries of existance, he didn't hunt all that much anymore. He had his retainers and those of his herd to feed from. When he hunted, he hunted for something more...filling...than human blood.

Blood like the two...soon to be three vampires he was watching...

To hunt the hunter, to rip the very soul out of their veins as they were carried off on a raft of pleasure all the while knowing they were going to die...

Who was the older of the hunters, he wondered? What power lay in her heart's blood?

The shadows were still and calm.

Time, after all, was not a factor...

I Float in the darkness fealing worm and comforted from the inside out. I vaguely feel her body pressed agonist my limp one holding me up with ease keeping my mouth nuzzled agonist her neck I feel my self still suckling on it as if I was a child at my mothers tit. Then the darkness pulls me farther down away from the comforts of the physical and deeper in to the folds of shadows I feel something binding my soul to my body even as its last breath is let out and its heart beats one last time….

Nothingness all around me black nothingness but yet theirs something pulling on me tugging me. I fallow it not able to fight it to stay in the comforting folds of the shadows that had embaraisest me like I was an new found lover that it didn’t wish to give up wanting to show me so much more…

At first I hear only the distant sound of rain hitting a window the faint sound of fabric being brushed agonist fabric. I frown as I struggle to open my eyes not understanding. I should be dead… I think to my self as the sounds steadily grow louder and louder. I let out a whimpering wine as my arms go up over my head covering my ears as I hear every drop of rain hitting the window as a thunder clap the hiss of silk on silk digging in to my ears as I curl up in to a ball trying to block out the berosh of intens sounds.

I jump as I feel ha soft hand on my shoulder the touch distracting me from the sounds some how cosing them to fade back to normal. I grown as I slowly un wind my mussels relaxing slowly. Then I notes I’m in a bed confusion racks my brain as memories return the darkness calling me becoming me. I feel a finger slowly move down my back the nail digging in to my skin once agene distracting me. I feel a shiver pass threw me at the touch.


(OOC) Sorry told so long to post was waiting to see if someone would jump in as the one terning me.

 

[Evil Attorney]

"Ah, the puppy stirs..." He thought.

How quaint.

He reached out with his will and commanded a shadow to do his bidding.

It would follow the elder, no matter were she went and let him see through it's 'eyes'...that is, until the first kiss of the morning sun when it would disolve into nothingness.

He slipped out of the shadow realm several hundred yards away in the basement of a small Italian place with an excelent wine cellar.

Not only was it dark, out of the way and totaly sealed from the daylight, but its owners (well...their name was on the deed although that doesn't quite count for everything) had good taste in wines. French, German, South African, Middle Eastern...excelent, all of them.

Even better when it filtered through the blood of prey.

This little place was one of his favorite hunting grounds when he was in the mood for human blood. The college kids liked this place because it was cheap. Young profesionals liked it because it had class. The city hall empolyees and financial people liked it because it was close to their jobs.

He liked it not only for the eats, but for all sorts of side benifits of so many different people who came through.

Some he just fed from. Some he gently beguiled information out of. Others he subtly suggested courses of action to...and others disapeared.

He grabbed a 2 bottles of 1932 Chateau d'Yquem from the cellar and made his way up to the top of the stairs into the cozy, shadowy bar.

Although wine did little for him, he could still drink it, if he took it slowly. It wasn't blood to nourish him, but the smell indulged his nose and drinking helped camoflauge him in the world of humans.

He would see what occured with the "recently departed" as he watched through the 'eyes' of his servant.

I sink in to the darkness once agene the feel of the finger tracing random patterns in my back fading as I welcome the embrace of the inky dark hiding from the truth not yet ready to deal with the meaning of my still chest and the faint memories of drinking from her neck. I flout once more in a timeless void feeling nothing aware of nothing but still some how comforted….

I feel my self once agene drown from the embrace of the dark groaning with disappointment at having to leave it once agene. I shift in the bed my arms moving this time automatically stretching up over my head. I frown as the bed doesn’t feel right it’s not mine. My eyes flutter open as my hearing sharpens once agene, but this time the sounds aren’t painful only sharp and clearer then they should be. I stare up at the ceiling seeing it clearly but there’s no lights on not even coming from the window the rain clouds hiding the moon and stars as they let there payload fall to the earth.

I sit up strait memories flashing and fading in my mind giving me tidbits but not letting me see everything. My eyebrows furrow as I try to remember what happened. I vaigly remember seeing a woman or was it two??? I put my head in my hands as it begins to throb from trying to force the memories up. Some one was in the bed with me at some point, wasn’t there?? I shake my head slowly trying to clear the fog. I look down at my self noticing for the first time that I’m completely naked.

“How? Why?” I say softly to my self trying to think.

I look around the room noticing that it’s furnished in expansive looking anteaks eloquent but not showy. Where ever I am my host or hostesses are tasteful at least. My eyes wander around the room my confusion not fading as I know I should not be able to see any of this theirs not enough light for me to beadle to see.

I pull the silk sheets off of my lap and swing my legs off the side of the bed standing up shakily. My hand going out and braising my self agest the night stand as I force my legs to stop shaking. My other hand going to my stomach as I feel a gnawing hunger I grimmas as my mouth and throat feel dry like I haven’t drank anything in days. I stager over to a door noticing tile on the floor figuring it was the bath room. I stop in the door leaning agenst the frame as I look in my eyes moving until I see the sink. I move over to it turning on the water and leaning down to take a drink.

I swish out my mouth spiting the water out then take another mouth full intending to swallow but my throat locks up. I grimes as I try to swallow the simple mouth full of water but my throat refuses to let even the smallest trtikel past. I finely spit out the water looking down at the sink confusions rolling threw my mined.

“Whets wrong with me.” I say in a hors voice.

I look up in to the mirror staring in to my own face my hazel eyes seeming to shimmer in the dark. I frown as I open my mouth slightly to ring my tong along my teeth to trying to get ride of the film that seems to be clinking to hem. I freeze as my tong moves over my eyeteeth there sharper then they used to be. I curl my lip back so I get a clear view of it my eyes going wide as they see that there not only sharper but longer as well. They seem to extend as I watch them growing even longer.

I close my eyes as I swallow hard focusing on what happed to me. Flashes of a man attacking me biting my neck then him falling away as I stab him with something and then running running. I shake my head trying to clear it agene. I women stepping out of the shadows saying something I grit my teeth trying to remember. Then then her arms around me my mouth on her neck drinking. I fall to my knees as I relays what I was drinking. My head hangs down as I shake it in denial.

“Whets happed to me?? What happened can’t be real it can’t there just stories fiction. Aren’t they??” I grown softly as I kneel there trying to reason with my self.

 

[nightray]

Ok givign this One bump..... Need the Dark lady that is takon Tim under her wing.

 

[Wolfsister]

“Whets happed to me?? What happened can’t be real it can’t there just stories fiction. Aren’t they??” I grown softly as I kneel there trying to reason with my self.

"Well, young one, i hadn't thought you would wake so soon. I was right when i said that you would make a good Hunter for me."
She stood in the doorway of the room, looking down at his piteous form. She watched with interest as he wailed on his knees, trying to deny his own existence.

"You, my dear, are mine now. You will come to understand more later. For now i will give you a treat, remain in this room until i return" She walked out of the room and reentered a moment later, throwing a young woman infront of him. She was tied and gagged and had long since stopped struggling to get past her bonds.

"Drink deeply young one, you'll need your strength to survive the training ahead" with that she whirled out of the room, locking the door as she went. She knew it wouldn't prevent him from getting out, but it would stop the girl if he was still human enough to untie her.

"Watch him" she instructed the waiting Kassandra. Then stepped onto the balcony and surveyed the shadows. She had sensed something following her earlier. Now that she had tended to the young one, she would find what it was that dared to stalk her this night....

ooc: hope you dont mind if i just jump in. ^_^

 

[nightray]

Tim

I look up as I hear her voice my eyes narrowing slightly as her words register. I look down at the girl bond and gagged on the floor next to me where she was thrown like she was nothing. My eyes flicking over her face taking in every detail with out realizing it. I faintly feel my fangs lengthening reflexively as her sent fills my nose and the sound of her blood rushing threw her Vance fills my ears. The hunger growing steadily even as my mind is still processing what the other sed.

“I’m hers now?” I say softy anger flickering to life pushing back the fear. “Dos she think to own me then?” I say agene my voice soft but an edge coming to it. I vagly hear the whimpers of the girl bring me back to the hear and now.

My hand moves out without me conchesly telling it to touching her face feeling the warmth. The hunger surging with in me demands something of me. My eyes drift as if in a dream to her neck as my finger press her face to one side her whimpers lowed in my ears but the sound of her fluttering heart is louder driving my hunger to new heights.

I run my tong over my fangs feeling them fully extended now shudders of anticipation ruing threw my body as new instects begin to take control of my rezoning mind pushing it back in to a corner of my brain no more then a fly buzz as my vision narrow to just her neck to the pulsing arderiny and the blood pumping just below the serfes.

My eyes flick to her eyes as she wines like a scared child tears falling over her cheeks her eyes red as she is shaking with sobs. Her fear filling my nose intoxicating as I lick my dry lips something in the back of my mined saying don’t do it she’s innocent its murder. I blink as my eyes drift back to her neck my hand moving lifting her up in to my lap easily as if she ways nothing. My hand gently moving threw her hair soothing calming.

I look in to her eyes this watching them glaze over as she stars in to my eyes seeming to see something in them as her mussels relax her sobs quitting as she lets me enfold her in my arms. With out any conches effort my mouth opens as my head sinks to her neck my teeth scraping over her neck her skin then theirs the sudden hot gush of her worm sweet blood filling my mouth shudders running threw my body.

I draw deeply from her neck her blood rushing in as I swallow the thick worm assents of her being settling in my stomach and spreading out filling me with life and ecstasy. I growl deep in my throat as my teeth sink in deeper drawing more blood from her my arms squeezing her body a faulty hear bone snapping as my strength increases my eyes shot severing the new extcy of my first feeding knowing deep down that it would not be my last.

I draw my head back from the now limp body breathing deeply as my eyes are still shut swimming in the ecstasy of feeding. My eyes slowly open as I lick my lips clean of her blood the small traces sending new eclectic thrills threw my nerves as I look down at the now pale dead girl still in my arms. I note how her body is bent at a strange anil as I had bronco her back during the feeding.

I gently lay her down on the floor I look at the rope binding her arms and with a sudden angry serge I rip the ropes off watching as they snap as if they where just strings. I gently place her arms over her chest my hands gentile as my body begins to shake as the ecstasy of the feeding wars off and the realization of what I’ve down hits me. My fingers shake as they move to her eyes gently closing them so I don’t have to look at her accusing eyes.

My fingers move to her throat surprised at the small punchers left behind sherly I had don more damage then that. I blink and shudder as I slowly rise to my feet feeling light as if I way nothing at all her blood pumping threw my veins strengthening me giving me more energy then I’ve ever felt before. I look up in to th4 mirror at my refection anger suddenly surging threw my body as my fist fly’s out and smashes the mirror shattering my refection.

I look at the back of my hand suppressed to see blood having not felt the glass cut me. I watch as the cuts heal leaving no trace. I instinctively bring my hand to my moth licking it clean. I then looking at my distorted refection one last time before turning on my heal and walk out of the bathroom. I look around the room lessoning hearing a rascal of cloth out side the door of my room. I watch the door debating on weather I should go out there or not.

I clench my fist hard my knuckles popping as the anger of what has happened to me grows only to be replaced with guilt over what I’ve just don. I growl as I close my eyes conflicting emotions surging threw my mind. I slowly walk to the near by window opening it letting the night air in as I breath deeply. I look out side in to the shadows of the night trying to relax to thing. The thought of jumping out of the window and running flickers threw my mined briefly but then war would I go? I lean agesnt the window sill my mussels tensing and untensing as I try to think of what I’m to do what I can do.

My yes rome over the yard below watching as the shadows shift and move as if alive beaconing to me to explore the secrets that they hide that I’m no able to see and truly appreciate. My mind wonders even as my eyes do spotting details in the world that I had never seen before the beauty of it breath taking…

 

[Wolfsister]

She stepped lightly off the balcony, plummeting to the ground, only to land with barely a sound onto her two feet.

She distantly hears glass shatter and wonders at it briefly. Perhaps her new pet wasn't happy with his gift?

She sighed, it would be a long night for him. Hopefully, if he did leave the room, which she doubted, he wouldn't catch himself in the sunlight at dawn. She grimaced.

She watched the shadows intently as she walked.
Once she returned to the spot where she had turned her pet, she stood for a long time. Tracing the shadows, this was where she had felt the presence.

She sniffed carefully, she could still smell his blood. Her long leather jacket creaked slightly as she crouched, inspecting the foot prints around her.
There were many, she sighed, she was getting to old for this. And now she needed to devote more of her time to her new pet. She sensed that he would be difficult.

She licked her lips as she thought of her Hunter. He was feisty, but she felt confident she could control him. She frowned in puzzlement, what if he was too feisty? Too emotional?
She shrugged, no matter. One way or the other, she would make him hers completely.

There was no way that she could track whatever it was that watched her, it always seemed just out of her grasp. Sighing once again she decided to return to her pet. It didn't seem to be malicious, and if it did turn out to be an enemy, well, then she would force it to come to her.
Until then, she needed to train herself another hunter. He would get no more gifts, he would have to earn them.

Swinging around she jumped to a nearby rooftop, travel was so much easier and faster this way.

Running swiftly over the rooftops, she was returning to her pet........

 

[nightray]

I star out at the darkness lessoning to the night sounds that I had never herd before ignoring the occasional rusil of cloth from one of the women not knowing or caring which it is. I finely quite resisting the call of the night and slip out the window looking down at the drop hesitating for a moment knowing that just they day before this drop would have broken my leg if not my neck but now.. Well now I don’t car if it brakes my neck I almost hope it dos.

I finely just let go and fall feeling my body twist in the air adimatickly moving so I land on my feet. My knees bending as my hands touch the ground. I feel my mussel’s bulldog as they absorb the shock of the fall only a slight twinge of pain in my knees faint popping sound as they are forced out of joint for a moment and then rest them selves. I grimes at the momentary pain pushing it aside as I stand up strait stretching my arms up over my head feeling my tendons pop as my spine crackles…

I tighten my neck mussels and twist my head too one side letting a soft sigh escape my lips as my neck pops. I straiten then and stand perfectly still not moving an inch as I let the night enfold me the shadows seeming to com out and cores my body. A soft smile appears on my lips as I welcome the caresses almost feeling them.

I take a slow dilbrit step then another beginning to walk out in to the garden wondering weir the Lady of the house is a little surprised that she would let me out of her house espshily after her comment of me being hers. I stop then tilting my head as I her that faint rusil of cloth agene. I nod knowingly one of them is fallowing me and I’m sheer I would not be hearing her now if she wasn’t dilbritly making noise as if to say I’m her so don’t try to run. I shrug then not intending to run at lest not yet wanting to know what the lady wants of me first before I decide if running would be worth wile.

I look to my right as I her a heart beet coming closer not human no the beat is off to be human to faint and fast. My eyes probe the shadows lessening to them to see if the may tell me something then it appears a large dog obvily a guard dog meant to keep the unwary away. I smile as the dog stops its legs stiff as his fur bristles a deep rumbling growl coming from his chest.

I just star at the large dog not the lest bit afraid knowing deep down that I’m now a much more dangers predator then this simple beast could ever hope to be. My eyes lock on his unblinking challenging daring him to attack. I smile faintly as the dog begin to tremble now with fear rather hen anger his once rigid tail slowly dropping and going between his legs as he drops to his belly and finely roles over showing his belly to me submitting to me.

I walk over to him my movement taking on the graceful predatory glide that I saw the lady use not as graceful as hers but the beginnings as my body adapts to its new role. I stand over the large dog lessoning to him whimper at my feat. I kneel fluidly and gently rub his belly casing his tail to wag for me.

“Good boy.” I say softly. I feel my self relaxing for the first time sins waking the dog seaming to drain my anger and fear away.

I stand slowly looking around at the shadows once more letting them draw me in once more not noticing the dog get to its feet and wander away keeping one eye on me at all times as I aimlessly drift threw the gardens taking in the beauty of the night lessoning to the music of the dark….

 

[Wolfsister]

Return

She glided over the rooftops, not making a single sound, a sense of urgency filled her. Kasssandra had just informed her of her pet's leaving. She had hoped that he would not have been up to it for some time. She smiled to herself. Another good indication of his strength.

She stopped as she reached the safe house, there was still a good five hours till dawn, enough time to collect her pet.

Sniffing, she caught the faint scent of Kassandra. Her smile turned into a grin, that girl gave off a lovely scent. She had always enjoyed it, especially after the young one had just fed.

Then she spotted him. She watched him silently as he glided throught the gardens. She eyed him with an appreciative look, he certainly had become something tonight, no mere mortal could look so...she hunted around for the right word. A slow smile stole across her face, could look so...delicious.

Something tugged at the back of her mind, it had followed her again, she was sure of it. No matter, it didn't seem to want to harm her. If it kept following her, she would just lead it somewhere that was definitely not healthy for it.

She dropped down silently beside the waiting Kassandra. "Go", she hissed to her, "I have no further need of you". Without waiting for a reply, she stalked forward and left the young vampire to do as she would.

She trailed after her pet, four and a half hours to sunrise. Plenty of time.

Stealing up behind him, she placed a her left hand on his back and her right forefinger came to rest against his temple. Then she leaned close to his ear.
"Well my pet, it seems that you have disobeyed my orders. I told you to remain in the room until got back. Didn't you hear me?" With that she trickled a small amount of pain into his head, by the time she was finished training him, he would beg her to give him pain. He would learn to love it, she would make sure of it.

Her hand pressed into his back, ready to support him, should her techniques prove to be too much. But she wouldn't stop, she would give him all that had been given to her.

She smiled as she felt the pain trickle into his body via her telepathic link with him, "Well, my pet, did you hear me? You feel this, don't you? I know you do. I remember feeling quite shocked when my own master first introduced me to this. He was a cruel master", her mouth twisted into a sardonic grin, "but i assure you, i will give you equal amounts of pain and pleasure. So here's the rules sweetheart, disobey me and i will give you pain, obey me and i will give you pain, oh but it will be pleasureable, perhaps only for me at the start, but you will learn to enjoy it in the future.
"So, do you understand me, my pet?" she whispered seductively, pausing to nibble softly at the lobe of his ear, never ceasing that trickle of pain.

 

[nightray]

Tim

I freeze as I feel her hand on my back and her finger resting on my temple. Surprised at how silent she had been I hadn’t herd her com up behind me at all not the slightest rusil. I begin to turn my mussels just beginning to obey when she speaks and then the pain begins. I catch my breath an instinctive thing sins I no longer need to breathe as my mussel’s titan up growing rigged.

I lesson to her words my mind filled with fear and anger my jaw clenches as I refuse to say a word refuse to give her the plesher of seeing or hearing my pain. A low growl begin in my chest as my anger begins to eat away at the shock and fear my eyes hard as they star strait ahead my mussels locked in to place unable to move for the pain running rampant threw my body.

My sight begins to narrow in to tunnel vision as the pain bars down on me unceasing unrelenting I only vagly feel her lips on my ear as her body presses up agesnt mine. I feel her warmth and her excitement with only feuls my anger adrenal beginning to pump in my veins as I fors my mussels to move. I slowly turn my movements jerky sending shards of new pain threw my body, but I just clench my teeth until I’m facing her.

My eyes lock on to hers filed with the pain and anger the fear still there but bared under the rest. I star unblinking in to her eyes refusing to show any weakness refusing to cringe or bag. “I will… Not…” That’s all I’m able to say before my throat locks up the pain increasing but my eyes remain focused on here’s all I see is her eyes.

 

[Evil Attorney]

He saw the elder of the trio trying to sense him...

No need for you to look so hard, my dear...He withdrew into the basement. He had fed well on a young woman of the staff earlier...he was content.

He stepped into the darkness and appeared 50 yards from the elder who searched for him.

He reached out with his will and summoned a tendril of shadow. Darkness became solid with absolute silence...with blinding speed it lashed out and struck the elder across the back and wrapped itself around her. Bones cracked as she was thrown into a wall.

The shadow disapated into nothingness as he approached...

She stood up, the bones within her already healing without effort, although the masonry wall would need repairs if it was going to survive another week or so...

"You know...the prince so disaproves of the creation of young without his permission...and I believe you know know the penalty for your acts..."

Only his eyes were visable. The rest of him was skillfuly obsured with darkness that came from no natural shadows. These moved. Subtly. Slowly...but their was no doubt that they weren't natural, or that the weilder's control over them was formidable...

 

[Wolfsister]

She smiled with sadistic pleasure. "Well, you are strong, i will not hide that fact from you. Not many young ones can stand what i'm doing to you and still defy me"

Sighing she suddenly released him from her grip of pain. She would try something else. "You have forced me to think my pet. I believe that you would be a great amusement to me, you'll force me to be creative" she paused and cocked her head. The presence was stronger now.

She had the sudden urge to run. She turned to Kassandra and hissed for her to return to the safe house. Then she turned to the young one once again and took his head into her hands. Staring deeply into his eyes she willed him to listen to her, "Young one, I know that you hate me right now, i can see it deep within you. It is true, i hated my master too, i still do. That will not happen to you, " she closed her eyes briefly, sensing impending danger. "Know this, i will always be honest with you. My methods will not always be pleasant, but as i said, you will be rewarded if you are good to me. Right now, there is something hunting us. I can fight it, but you can't. You have your choice to make and make it now. Stay with me and you will be treated well, stay out here to fight the shadows and serve another and you will die, maybe not tonight, but you will."

Cradling his head tenderly in her hands, the earlier delivery of pain forgotten, she waited for his response, knowing that time was running out for him. She would not lose another hunter, not like this, but she had never been given a choice and she had resented that fact for the rest of her life. He would have a choice, she hoped he made the right one.

"Choose your master"...

 

[nightray]

Tim

I look unflinchingly in to her eyes trying to read her as best I can. My head instinctively pressing in to her hand recognizing it for the true sine of affection that it was. I leson to her words as the mussels in my body slowly unknot from the intents pain she had so recently put it threw and now as suddenly as it had begun he had ended and she was showing that she could be gentile as well as curl.

The faintest of smiles touches my lips at her words. “I’ll stay for now I’ll stay.” I say softly my voice barley more then a whisper. “I think it will be amusing for both of use to see if you can break me to your will.” I chuckle softly. “Thou painful for me as well.” I shrug slightly. “I’ve put up with pain my howl life not just fiscal ether it won’t be anything new just the degree.” My eyes unfocuse as memories com back showing more pain for them then for what she had just don.

I shake my head slightly clearing them away pushing them back in to the dark recesses of my mind once more. “I wont call you Mistress thou.” I say this time my voice hardening with a hint of finality. “You may even my respect and my loyalty but I will not submit.” My eyes harden slightly as I look in to her eyes. “I’m not upset over being turned I still can’t buleav this is real but I’m not up set over it. I had nothing in life perhaps now in death I’ll find something.” My hand moves to the back of hers still on my check barley touching. “Time will tell what is in store for me.” My voice once more soft.

I frown as I feel the hairs on the back of my neck begin to stand on end. Something inside telling me its danger. Something is coming I think to my self but my eyes are trapped by hers my hand frozen on hers letting her read my answers letting her know that I spoke the truth that she would have a challenge on her hands if she wanted me to submit totally to her will.

 

[Wolfsister]

She feels him press intimately into her hand, almost pillowing it against his cheek, a thought passes briefly through her head. Perhaps this one was different, he would be a hunter, but perhaps he would be something....else too.

Shaking herself slightly, she untensed her tired muscles when she heard his response. Not realising how much she would have been lost if he had chosen the shadows.

He would not call her Mistress, not in training. She smiled to herself, but oh he would call her Mistress in so much more intimate ways. Nodding slightly to herself, she made her final decision. Yes, she would teach this one pain, but she would also teach him pleasure. He was right, Death had much to offer him.

She was startled somewhat when he reached up and touched the back of her hand. No-one had dared touch her like that, without fear, for centuries. She dismissed it, he just didn't know what she was capable of. But...still...it would be interesting to see how he touched her when he did know. If he touched her at all.

She smiled deeply, frowning slightly as she saw the pain flicker through his eyes. "Now is all the time we have, so you will be with me for all of time" It wasn't a threat, it was a simple observation. Her smile grew wilder, then, heedless of the nearing danger, she threw back her head and laughed, giddy with relief. She had a Hunter now, and he was hers.

Stepping closer she brushed a lock of hair from his eyes, then she leaned in a whispered intimately into his ear, "So be it then".
She stepped back and cocked her head, considering the best course of action. She could defend herself well enough, but she couldn't protect the young one, not yet.

Nodding once again, she decided. She would run. It would be dawn soon and they needed to get back to one of her safehouses. Not the one she had used earlier in the evening, that was not safe any longer, and it was too close. She would take him to another, further away. She took a last, long look at him and said "Follow me, you must be swift. You cannot fight this, not tonight. But i will teach you how. I promise." with that, she turned and jumped to the roof of a nearby building and began to run lithley and gracefully on the rooftops as she raced home, time was now of the essence.

She didn't bother to look backwards to see if he was following, she knew that he would. But how far would he follow her? She wondered. How far could she push him?

Running silently, she raced to reach her home before the sun reached her.

 

[nightray]

I feel of shiver run down my spine as her breath on my ear as she speaks. Lisoing quietly and nodding slightly. I feel a ting of regret as she removes her hand from my cheek the feel of it lingering as I watch her leap up on to a near by building ruing across the roof.

I gather my self taking a running jump grabbing the edge of the roof with my hands pulling my self up not yet strong enough to make the jump in one fluid movement like she had. I run after her my eyes straining to keep her in sight my mussels complaining as I push my body hard to keep up leaping from roof top to roof top sometime scrambling to catch hold of the edge of a roof with the jump was farther then I could make.

I knots her slow her pace a few times letting my catch up even with out looking back seeming to know when I would be slowed down by a jump or climb. I marvel at my strength and speed my body moving with a grace and fluidity I didn’t have in life. I don’t feel my self tiring as I would in life not as fast and sins I no ling need to breath I’m not gasping for breath as I sherly would be in life at this pace not that I could even gane this pace in life.

I think over what has happened to me still trying to proses it. Wondering why I was fallowing her. I know she will just give me pain but… I see something in her when I look in to her eyes I saw… I don’t know but it draws me to her in away that I’ve only felt once before. I shake my head as I push the memories back refusing to face them not now not ever, if I could help it the pain is too much even now.

I cry out as my foot lands rung on the edge of a roof top after jumping my mind distracted not paying atchon. I hear a loud popping sound and pain stabs up threw my leg from my ankle. I growl as I force the pain aside and keep running feeling the bones grinding together as my body try’s to heal it, but I don’t stop long enough to let it heal her urgency in getting to a safe place pushing my on.

I let out another cry as I jump agene landing on the bad foot I fall forward terming it in to a forward roll getting back to my feet with out loosing momentum. I feel a wet warmth filling my shoe as one of the broken bones cuts threw my skin. I don’t car forcing my self to run to keep going as much to prove to my self that I was not weak that I would not give in as to her. I feel my self slowly beginning to weaken as the blood needed to keep me alive seeps out of me.

I know that she would stop and wait if I did she would know that I stopped, but I refuse to show weakness. I grit my teeth as I push the pain away and force my self to move past the slow weakening.

 

[Wolfsister]

She runs silently, swiftly. Sometimes slowing so that the Young One could catch up, she was amazed by his strength.

She negotiated the rooftops with ease and a familiarity that spoke of a long time being in this city. Finally she stopped at a particular building and jumped down to an open window, swinging inwards to land softly on the plush carpet inside.

She heard a slight thud as her pet landed behind her, she sniffed, noting the strong scent of blood on him. "Wait here," she instructed and quickly walked around the interior of the apartment, making sure everything was as it should be and that no sunlight could reach them.

When she returned, she looked at her pet standing in the middle of the room before the bed. She noticed that he looked weak, and he seemed to be struggling to compose himself. All of a sudden she stalked towards him and picked him up effortlessly and dumped him on the bed.

She looked him over critically, "Dawn is here, we must stay here until the night. Tonight, you learn to hunt". Then she took one pant leg and ripped it off him, revealing his broken ankle. She snarled at him and grabbed the ankle, giving him a sharp stab of fresh pain. "You idiot, " she hissed, then she released him, "You did not tell me because you didn't want to seem weak, didn't you?" she nodded, he had tried to please her.

She sighed, he had lost a lot of blood, and it was too early for her to go out to hunt. She lay beside him on the bed, getting comfortably close. Then she took his head and rested it against her breasts. She took one of her claws and slit it along the inside of her forearm. Blood welled up from the deep cut.

She put her gashed arm against his mouth and sighed gently into his ear, "Drink darling. Drink deeply"...

 

[nightray]

I watch as she seems to drop off the side of a building I grimes at the thought of taking that kind of fall on my bad foot but I move on. I stop briefly at the edge looking down scanning for her seeing an open window and movement in it I nod figuring that where she went as theirs no sine of her on the ground.

I step off the edge drawping tords the window my hands catching the sill swinging me in behind her. I stumble as I try to keep my wait off my bad foot. I look around the room not even noticing that I’m swaying from weakness. I take in as much as I can my eyes going in and out of focus as the hunger grows agene.

I suddenly feel my self being lifted up in to the air and then the bed on my back before I can think of what is happening I feel the leg of my pant being ripped away and then a sharp burst of pain knifing up my leg as she takes my broken ankle in her hand. I grimes as I feel the bone grating back in to its proper spot slowly.

Next thing I know she’s got my head on her breast and her arm up to my mouth the sent of blood filling my nose driving the hunger on as my mouth closes over the cut in her arm her blood filling me once agene as I swallow convulsively. I feel her blood once more spreading out from my stomach my strength returning. I her a faint popping sound and vagly feel the pain of my ankle resetting as the fresh blood from her speeds up the healing.

I force my self to stop before my hunger was reedy to let me on its own. I clench my jaw forcing the hunger down once more by shear force of will. I know I can’t take as much as I would like from her she needs her strength as well. I know she would have stopped me on her own when she felt I had taken enough but agene it’s one more thing I need to prove to my self that I can control the hunger and not let it control me. I refuse to submit to even that.

I curl up close to her body instinctively seeking her warmth my head on the softness of her breast as I put my right arm over her stomach. I close my eyes and slowly relax as I feel the hunger settling down though not happily. I don’t even stop to think that I should not seek comfort from her it doesn’t cross my mind to be afraid of her. Therese something about her that draws me to her not to submit but to just be near her to hold her and be held by her. I don’t question it having learned a long time ago to not question my gut feeling to trust my instickets.

 

[Wolfsister]

She sighed in rare content as he drank of her. This was the second time this night that she had let him feed on her essence. He wasn't an aggressive feeder either, rather, a pleasant one. She knew in that instant that she would give up her essence once again, if he should ever need it.

She was somewhat startled to find that once he was done feeding, he cuddled closer to her. His arm lay against her stomach, his head still resting against her breasts. She feels him relax, knowing that she is responsible for her pet's comfort.

She sighed, his training would start tomorrow night. Right now, she just wanted to hold him for some strange reason. She wasn't showing weakness, she would never show that, but....he seemed to be so different from the other Turned. Softer, somehow, but haunted.

She sighed and stroked her fingers through his soft hair. Enjoying the feel of it against her skin. Her other hand played with his fingers lying on her stomach. Just idly, not really knowing what she was doing.

Stangely enough, she drew comfort from this young one. She lay on the bed and let his prescence fill her mind, let his body warm her. Let her fingers trail through his hair. Then she let the first tear she had shed in centuries drop.

She sobbed softly, suddenly not caring if her Hunter heard her, not caring that she was showing him a weakness. Right now, she needed him, and he was there.

She curled herself around him and held onto him tightly as she let the storm pass over her. She didn't even know why she was crying, all her pain, all her memories she had banished long ago.

As she lay there with her new Hunter, she wondered where she was going. What purpose did her life have now that her one true love was gone? Her dull pain ceased all of a sudden, she no longer felt love. She wondered briefly at this, then looked down at her pet. Perhaps............? No, she shook her head.

Her fingers found themselves trapped in his silken hair. She bent her head and her full lips found the soft skin of his neck, she nuzzled slightly and closed her eyes.

Content, for now.

 

[nightray]

I smile with my own contentment as I feel her finger moving threw my hair soothing as her other hand place with my own finger. I feel my self relax more then I’ve been in a vary long time tenchins and notes that I didn’t even know I had slipping away. I don’t know why I’m taking comfort in her I don’t know why I’m letting her be so close espshily knowing what she has planed for me the pain she will bring. I’m somewhat surprised she hasn’t started giving me pain yet.

My eyes widen in shake as I feel her body quiver with a sudden sob reflexively I pull her to me holding on to her tight my hands now doing the comforting as I gently rock her as she cry’s. The sudden reversal of role stunning me but not as bad as I don’t react showing her the same as she had shown me. I don’t say a word not wanting to break her out of this sudden break down knowing deep down that it was long in coming and badly needed. My hand moves over her gently softly nothing that would be consider inapropret just enough to remind her that I was there.

I feel her nuzzle my neck finely as the storm of emotion fades my head moving to one side willingly offering my self to her not knowing why. It just feels right that if she should wish to taste of me that she should be aloud. It doesn’t ocher to me that doing so may mean anything other then a sign of my trust in her. I don’t know why I trust her I just find my self trusting in her. My hand moves up to her head running threw her hair as hers had down to me gently encouraging her to taste me if she so desired suddenly feeling an extolment welling up in me at the thought of her teeth sinking in to my neck and my blood flowing in to her.

 

[Wolfsister]

She sighed, suddenly feeling his hand rake through her hair. She remembered how he had just recently been holding her while she was racking with sobs, the painful memories being just too much for her.

She growled low in her throat as he offered his sweet soft flesh to her. She opened her eyes and stared at him, considering. She sighed into his ear, setting the tips of her fangs against his skin.

She rubbed her lips smoothly against his neck a little, anticipating his sweet, hot blood entering her. Then slowly, ever so slowly, she sank her fangs into his flesh. They pierced his skin and she slowly sucked, his blood passing her lips, entering her veins.

She moaned against his skin, knowing that he too felt the pleasure of being fed apon. She made sure that he felt the slight shiver of excitement run along her body as she drank, not too deeply, for he was still relatively weak.

This was a surprise to her, she had not thought that he would give his essence up so early in his training. He had not even begun to be a Hunter, and he still let her feed apon him.

She gripped him tightly, rigidly controlling what she took. Her fangs pulling out of him as she finishes, taking just enough, not too much.
"Thankyou my pet" she whisperes into his ear, nibbling on it slightly, wishing him only pleasure at this moment. All thoughts of pain vanished from her mind.

She sighed in contentment once more and cuddles close to him, holding him in her arms tightly. Not wishing to let him go, nor him let her go. Tonight, they would lie in peace with each other, tomorrow night, his training would begin...
