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.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKPuO7VDo5d
"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.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsgnk131Htm
"Luna! at least wait till someone escorts you!" Alexander yelled.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRhUNZNiymp
"Can't die, remember Alexander!" I laughed quietly, I heard Alexander scoff and order Lukas to grab a mop.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIQqf4203Qp
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.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHcTOlzwhqF
"Luna, where are we going?"
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjYCl26SOwC
"Shh." I snapped.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXXQpCsLklV
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.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTdfoM9z5xP
"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.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxcmvDV1la1
I walked towards the big swan fountain, that had now froze over leaving a sparkling layer across the dark grey stone.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGp0KQuKOBB
"What was that punishment about?" Jason interrupted my thoughts and I blinked.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9dMYYSRMnT
"What do you mean? I just took care of the possible backlash. . ."
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ15Jd0fZ4U
"Normally you and I, share what the decided punishment is, let alone, kill a handful at once as punishment. . ."
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOQ2OU27B6E
"Well it's already happened, can't change the past." I snapped.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ4z7QY6iSU
"That's. . . Not the point." He sighed pausing.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIZ1aGDdAGi
"What were you gonna do with that guy Rickey anyway?"he questioned.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT93eekk4ZE
To be truthful, I wasn't really too sure he just. . . drew my attention.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡksA7Ab87Lw
"Nothing, I was just curious."
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVvbxOQuCnQ
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.

"Ben's coming over for the usual check in, right?" Jason asked, putting on a white T shirt.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkdAak3Arh9
"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."
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ571T8fnG2h
"Ben never texts or calls us." Jason scoffed.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSgrJio2BON
"Well the point is I told him if he felt the need, to do so okay Mr. Smart ass" I laughed quietly.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYdZRGJOH7l
"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.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMUACPmdbtO
I tilted my head back, as he placed a gently kiss on my lips before pulling away.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbO32Y3ljmM
"Don't get into too much trouble. . ." I teased.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOpYefD9Y7n
"Come on. . . it's just Darian and Jay after all"
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkE3NIGqRp9
I shoved him by the chest a little bit making him step back and shoved him his leather jacket.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs5QreViFEh
He chuckled and walked out of the foyer.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj8miZsKfSf
Alexander walked in passing Jason on the way and looked at me.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrKIooxEhj5
"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. . ."
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEpooWPUr9n
He opened his mouth to speak and I cut him off.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOy3QLWD3N6
"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."
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTy3pxbeC37
Alexander quickly shut his mouth, almost seemed to be biting his tongue and nodded before leaving the room.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqPz6HbElCf
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.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyRFYdDHXB8
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.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4jZlLGySRB
"Luna, Ben is here for you." Alexander's voice broke through my thoughts.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlv82eJwMDf
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.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZUpRblIYfp
"Jacket?" Alexander asked Ben.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8cuk8JGrDa
Ben shook his head and then walked towards me, I looked at him concerned.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpwmg31jziv
"Something wrong?" I asked, as I waived him to sit in the white and gold chair in the corner.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeblYXO8QOH
Alexander looked at me for approval to leave and I nodded.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGQL76gEJ3H
Ben finally sat down and sighed.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNmwF4U5Pc3
"I. . . I don't know, I was about to call you, then I didn't and I just have this. . ."
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8qp2niDXrP
He paused.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEE9NFYkNsB
"This thirst, like a thirst I can't cure."
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt7BdJS1vQ2
He sounded tense and he fidgeted with his hands.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRHrqQ3TKYK
Was Ben experiencing blood lust from me taking so much blood?
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdtyUyLDBln
"Are you sick?"
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKbefMiL0C6
He shook his head.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoJj3HZ8Dyn
"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."
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLDOmFZ0JeV
"Is that why he's been screaming 'drink from her' since I've arrived?" Ben interrupted.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyvRxB2fnCt
I froze and my eyes watched Ben closely. It was still Ben, but it made me cautious.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1wV5j3Wlx0
Something I very rarely felt.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkyi5TLaMso
"Probably. . ."
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTHBh9xGcSD
"What do I do?" he sounded as if he were begging.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJadDlrW2nw
He was in pain. A lot of it. . .
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXVhJI4kPsR
"I don't know, I don't know enough about a human having this problem. . . let alone a. . . dragon." I cleared my throat.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXc2wY8KfYP
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.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVpOV4PTuza
"Why is it coming through now? usually it doesn't effect me you know?" he said as he rubbed his throat.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvlwJEhbQf4
"I warned you, he would become stronger with everyday, let alone feeding him."
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxL54R70AzQ
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.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoZINbB7fyl
"Truly, being stuck in this human is becoming very. . . bothersome."
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfDpNYiKl9Y
Suddenly, I heard Kaiden's low voice.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP7f6uEBsea
"I'm quite sure it is being smaller and all, now tell me why must you bother the poor human with your troubles?"
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFjPTJ9MxDg
"You said it yourself my dear, as I grow stronger the more control I have over him, over us."
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm9DAl3Uotq
His words rolled off of his tongue.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlqndOY6PyT
"So, you wish to not be in control of such a thing?" I looked at him.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgWTXHuVv4X
His face was plain, as if there was no emotion.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcMFtawiC2W
"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."
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8UlN4xUtPn
I huffed.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWZAgeXE1tf
"So what, ripping into me is carnage enough for you?"
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXfVFNCYsN2
"It's not like you'd die." He remarked.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡggZQVl3FMS
I rolled my eyes and in response he smirked, his yellow eyes burning, almost straight into me it seemed.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXdb4UwnA6u
"Sorry, I don't recall offering myself as a Martyr for you." I sneered.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYXOau7jfCQ
"Unfortunate, haven't had that offer in a while. . . and you my dear could last me for forever. . ."
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5MyI0tmYPF
He sighed, as if bored with the conversation and stood.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ97xZiCkuk8
Carefully, my eyes followed him, as he paced the room.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuHXtrG6tz8
"Relax child, I will not harm you."
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtb1y1SCZZW
"You've already harmed Ben, how can I assure that you won't lie to me about more hmm?"I tested.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzAE3MPhyAX
He held up his index finger and smiled coming closer.
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwIvZe1Bn5v
"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."
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOKW8t1dHK1
"So, as you can see Kaiden, I don't have insurance in this situation, now do I?"
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN6CvKikAos
"Very well then. . . then I suppose this is farewell until you have the insurance you need, am I correct?"
199Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQTWyHjMXik
Kaiden seemed to be very. . . testing of my comfort of the situation.
