I could tell that Alexander, was avid to clean up the mess before the few vampires that were left , could catch a whiff of the smell. The rancid smell of the bodies slowly turning to black muck.

I'm sure you're wondering by now that if when a vampire dies and they turn to a black liquid goop substance, why would you feed of each other. Well, you see when a vampire dies, the body doesn't turn into ash or just disappear. It decomposes and at a extremely rapid rate resulting in well. . .sludge.

My nose scrunched up and I turned to Jason.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSamhnBZwZC
"Ready to get outta here?" I looked up at him, smiling.
He gave me a confused look, I just kept smiling and took his hand pulling him with me through the door.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvHSNph5svE
"Luna! at least wait till someone escorts you!" Alexander yelled.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8EfphvecvI
"Can't die, remember Alexander!" I laughed quietly, I heard Alexander scoff and order Lukas to grab a mop.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLE1aSxk8eo
Quickly, I ran down the stairs and outside, quickly moving around the staff as they cleaned up, the winter themed decorations, some of the sparkles moving the the flow of air I created.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzPYMwIfgpl
"Luna, where are we going?"
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZX71fMJElV
"Shh." I snapped.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPfTwG70US6
As we reached outside, I took a breath of the air. The snow was just barely falling, everyone's footsteps were still fresh. Yet it was so. . . quiet.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjlAKXZVMMH
"You're gonna ruin that beautiful dress in this weather. . . come on lets go inside." Jason started to pull me back towards the mansion and I shook my head.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiFG2ec6xXE
I walked towards the big swan fountain, that had now froze over leaving a sparkling layer across the dark grey stone.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTzrtmtnytw
"What was that punishment about?" Jason interrupted my thoughts and I blinked.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxlAZabXeRA
"What do you mean? I just took care of the possible backlash. . ."
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcSkSN34SVA
"Normally you and I, share what the decided punishment is, let alone, kill a handful at once as punishment. . ."
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCZkIqaNRU2
"Well it's already happened, can't change the past." I snapped.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqw8W8PBWtR
"That's. . . Not the point." He sighed pausing.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO15haHS7xw
"What were you gonna do with that guy Rickey anyway?"he questioned.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoCXrpv1pvM
To be truthful, I wasn't really too sure he just. . . drew my attention.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa3GCBloSFZ
"Nothing, I was just curious."
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4SFlADxRkh
His face looked unsure if he trusted me, I'm sure he was rummaging through my thoughts, but even if so he wouldn't find an answer.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTH0PNrvXtv

"Ben's coming over for the usual check in, right?" Jason asked, putting on a white T shirt.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQFQNMaksCA
"In about five minutes or so, he hasn't texted me or anything saying he's feeling any different so I'm sure it's the same."
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGVZcYZPSji
"Ben never texts or calls us." Jason scoffed.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLGW2wRPQWs
"Well the point is I told him if he felt the need, to do so okay Mr. Smart ass" I laughed quietly.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCRzLnOTs5F
"I can indeed be, I love you I'll be back by tomorrow morning." I smiled, as I suddenly felt arms wrapped around my waist.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ5kXRkz9eC
I tilted my head back, as he placed a gently kiss on my lips before pulling away.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYjawyKFB9d
"Don't get into too much trouble. . ." I teased.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcx1Ou9Xvjp
"Come on. . . it's just Darian and Jay after all"
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAeWMcBFRlX
I shoved him by the chest a little bit making him step back and shoved him his leather jacket.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxkrCMToUhB
He chuckled and walked out of the foyer.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH10zCLnrTT
Alexander walked in passing Jason on the way and looked at me.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLiS27yZjxX
"You can stay, but really I'm fine, please relax go. . . I don't know, watch a movie by the door or something, I don't need to be in your view always I promise. . ."
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0W7Q3ROL5S
He opened his mouth to speak and I cut him off.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2h7XG9XISu
"Alexander you always worry about us and never focus on yourself. . . at least take an hour, not even a full day, an hour at least. That's an order."
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoexl0MSE0Q
Alexander quickly shut his mouth, almost seemed to be biting his tongue and nodded before leaving the room.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmzcziG71ZR
I loved how devoted he was, don't get me wrong. . . ever since I had taken the throne though, he had never fully taken off. Alexander was the head guard and was always with us before anyone else. We were his priority. Though this meant that he truly ever allowed himself to have a life, even though he didn't have to worry about us, because we couldn't be killed.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSF0g0PFp1x
Part of me wondered, if it was his guilt for Letting the past king and queen down. Though he had said to me once that he knew, that one day we would come and that he knew whoever it was, he would choose us over them. Though if I were to be honest, he never had the chance to know we were planning what we did. Because in fact there was no plan, in some ways that was what made it most impressive yet infamous.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi0pdVsdIVE
"Luna, Ben is here for you." Alexander's voice broke through my thoughts.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlbxyUlSEtv
I looked over at Ben, who was wearing a navy blur fleece jacket with blue jeans. The snow still lightly covered his jacket quickly melting.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7eGr2pFqoE
"Jacket?" Alexander asked Ben.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOrBIBnwHYJ
Ben shook his head and then walked towards me, I looked at him concerned.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoePrNvN1Tr
"Something wrong?" I asked, as I waived him to sit in the white and gold chair in the corner.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ25CN8vZGhx
Alexander looked at me for approval to leave and I nodded.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvCwauAkEv8
Ben finally sat down and sighed.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYkjGdgCe7J
"I. . . I don't know, I was about to call you, then I didn't and I just have this. . ."
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHEas28HySL
He paused.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6UnROMdytX
"This thirst, like a thirst I can't cure."
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPkNSy4mrHX
He sounded tense and he fidgeted with his hands.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4gMeiYxFg3
Was Ben experiencing blood lust from me taking so much blood?
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoSk5hSL5Q0
"Are you sick?"
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYkpJeOmEwF
He shook his head.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk8NbX6qmt3
"I'm not sure, but. . . you could be experiencing blood lust from Kaiden's side of you since he's fed me twice. . .you know I do not have enough information on him to understand fully."
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFDFNjPK4f1
"Is that why he's been screaming 'drink from her' since I've arrived?" Ben interrupted.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr49huXi7MX
I froze and my eyes watched Ben closely. It was still Ben, but it made me cautious.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIqoJUioTK3
Something I very rarely felt.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ49lqz4wJP0
"Probably. . ."
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtvTrSctEBk
"What do I do?" he sounded as if he were begging.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJqLv50hgAp
He was in pain. A lot of it. . .
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjGyRl4duHv
"I don't know, I don't know enough about a human having this problem. . . let alone a. . . dragon." I cleared my throat.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTWp4JUD8GN
I had to be careful, because I didn't want Kaiden to force me into a blood bond, but I also didn't want Ben to suffer from a blood lust either.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUACBiChTug
"Why is it coming through now? usually it doesn't effect me you know?" he said as he rubbed his throat.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡycYu5MchuS
"I warned you, he would become stronger with everyday, let alone feeding him."
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiHKiVnJNaz
Little did Ben know, it was in my best benefit to have Kaiden fully able to be. Thus, why I encouraged awakening him on what seemed to be "harmless" reasons. Even if he fully did and wasn't in full control, he still didn't have the power to kill me, so I wasn't concerned.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡchtE2opvz6
"Truly, being stuck in this human is becoming very. . . bothersome."
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡulncYQk8i6
Suddenly, I heard Kaiden's low voice.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNJd9VZhEVB
"I'm quite sure it is being smaller and all, now tell me why must you bother the poor human with your troubles?"
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKPzpJrKHuU
"You said it yourself my dear, as I grow stronger the more control I have over him, over us."
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUwWLvOj0eZ
His words rolled off of his tongue.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡziLGqyHN0l
"So, you wish to not be in control of such a thing?" I looked at him.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ77WFJCAnCP
His face was plain, as if there was no emotion.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu54Rdn4dhu
"Well you see back in the day I had people bring a feast full of animals for me to bring and although I suppose what humans eat for meat now is. . . good. It is by no means efficient. Most definitely not carnage enough for my taste."
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0rIfZQCzLp
I huffed.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwJsgHuKaX1
"So what, ripping into me is carnage enough for you?"
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7kjBJAtnb4
"It's not like you'd die." He remarked.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqVsiYN8Pz4
I rolled my eyes and in response he smirked, his yellow eyes burning, almost straight into me it seemed.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjGCYywGBJp
"Sorry, I don't recall offering myself as a Martyr for you." I sneered.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVPdXNfi3lZ
"Unfortunate, haven't had that offer in a while. . . and you my dear could last me for forever. . ."
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa6EXogyFc5
He sighed, as if bored with the conversation and stood.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtgsaR0Zcx9
Carefully, my eyes followed him, as he paced the room.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6UZ25tGUNK
"Relax child, I will not harm you."
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHmT8u8kHEz
"You've already harmed Ben, how can I assure that you won't lie to me about more hmm?"I tested.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVd9ErDCOkI
He held up his index finger and smiled coming closer.
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXDtuYWmB3i
"True, this is indeed also true, but I also know that everyone is indeed just waiting for us to make a struggling sound and everyone in this mansion will either be rushing in to contain me, even if it means they die. . . Others will run away."
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcOA0Ibj26B
"So, as you can see Kaiden, I don't have insurance in this situation, now do I?"
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeZ4w7qbhEw
"Very well then. . . then I suppose this is farewell until you have the insurance you need, am I correct?"
243Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU0jsqrRyrJ
Kaiden seemed to be very. . . testing of my comfort of the situation.
