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.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBm7baLffop
"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.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQYlt4wvjML
"Luna! at least wait till someone escorts you!" Alexander yelled.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3EAXsJsNr4
"Can't die, remember Alexander!" I laughed quietly, I heard Alexander scoff and order Lukas to grab a mop.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc2ia6Pg5gw
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.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy3H6QKSeG2
"Luna, where are we going?"
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcLXzp0Vn2x
"Shh." I snapped.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwkpLlsE1BQ
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.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCbLeqmDLaJ
"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.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR76TLAlqx5
I walked towards the big swan fountain, that had now froze over leaving a sparkling layer across the dark grey stone.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQVtjzDLGFq
"What was that punishment about?" Jason interrupted my thoughts and I blinked.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1bhOr0ZKLC
"What do you mean? I just took care of the possible backlash. . ."
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwdbrc7vxgw
"Normally you and I, share what the decided punishment is, let alone, kill a handful at once as punishment. . ."
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡssqTEC5K63
"Well it's already happened, can't change the past." I snapped.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGDPe7GDYz6
"That's. . . Not the point." He sighed pausing.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBZicumi8Pa
"What were you gonna do with that guy Rickey anyway?"he questioned.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJgqAbHv8cB
To be truthful, I wasn't really too sure he just. . . drew my attention.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ08lUBfAjxX
"Nothing, I was just curious."
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaeovXoaEV6
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.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn0CFjAmaHl

"Ben's coming over for the usual check in, right?" Jason asked, putting on a white T shirt.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiSjAGIRRef
"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."
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL5V88O6pyH
"Ben never texts or calls us." Jason scoffed.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNjU5BocLT3
"Well the point is I told him if he felt the need, to do so okay Mr. Smart ass" I laughed quietly.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmlN2Pulefr
"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.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqhGwppCBhg
I tilted my head back, as he placed a gently kiss on my lips before pulling away.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCYm5HPFieN
"Don't get into too much trouble. . ." I teased.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1BX0NtsJ9z
"Come on. . . it's just Darian and Jay after all"
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8LiVA3IpzC
I shoved him by the chest a little bit making him step back and shoved him his leather jacket.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv46vzTgl9I
He chuckled and walked out of the foyer.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGZ2TQOxUM5
Alexander walked in passing Jason on the way and looked at me.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJdssgU8edk
"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. . ."
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcPjOMrgw9f
He opened his mouth to speak and I cut him off.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGvZAf4kCXe
"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."
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe8pMLWZ9a4
Alexander quickly shut his mouth, almost seemed to be biting his tongue and nodded before leaving the room.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡETa21vUQMq
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.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjVmdlzGl34
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.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡusSMwsL60R
"Luna, Ben is here for you." Alexander's voice broke through my thoughts.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGhindit9iD
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.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEHoFXoREtQ
"Jacket?" Alexander asked Ben.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfKr4xZC39Z
Ben shook his head and then walked towards me, I looked at him concerned.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO9W646seqP
"Something wrong?" I asked, as I waived him to sit in the white and gold chair in the corner.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFWD97saHCb
Alexander looked at me for approval to leave and I nodded.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7YUVseUJwB
Ben finally sat down and sighed.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLJtNXhl5YW
"I. . . I don't know, I was about to call you, then I didn't and I just have this. . ."
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgQpH8RAkdQ
He paused.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡniDAfUkkhY
"This thirst, like a thirst I can't cure."
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6TsBy40ykm
He sounded tense and he fidgeted with his hands.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzLXdXnge5a
Was Ben experiencing blood lust from me taking so much blood?
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwOx0J6uPca
"Are you sick?"
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHgyqa2sCrq
He shook his head.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡugMhns5gkf
"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."
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOpjJGK8nWv
"Is that why he's been screaming 'drink from her' since I've arrived?" Ben interrupted.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp4aw3gkkJw
I froze and my eyes watched Ben closely. It was still Ben, but it made me cautious.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYBIyTIKKEJ
Something I very rarely felt.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0zzB7fb9sx
"Probably. . ."
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5A2wb9dQd2
"What do I do?" he sounded as if he were begging.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZz4CWXqDJp
He was in pain. A lot of it. . .
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOSRNRi0xyR
"I don't know, I don't know enough about a human having this problem. . . let alone a. . . dragon." I cleared my throat.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGL786Yi8bg
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.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB8pVHLN4SM
"Why is it coming through now? usually it doesn't effect me you know?" he said as he rubbed his throat.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2WIUShquGO
"I warned you, he would become stronger with everyday, let alone feeding him."
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjfsEvD60kl
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.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvVW93mVUbb
"Truly, being stuck in this human is becoming very. . . bothersome."
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvVK38DHNfy
Suddenly, I heard Kaiden's low voice.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQkOuZewVd3
"I'm quite sure it is being smaller and all, now tell me why must you bother the poor human with your troubles?"
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdKJrVyEwPT
"You said it yourself my dear, as I grow stronger the more control I have over him, over us."
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPV7HOLdDga
His words rolled off of his tongue.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6yC8Mr7Cbf
"So, you wish to not be in control of such a thing?" I looked at him.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrg1JCGnHBJ
His face was plain, as if there was no emotion.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRIKRuW7waB
"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."
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYGaH52EaxL
I huffed.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ22hCvkrHRN
"So what, ripping into me is carnage enough for you?"
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqQYeEeo9ra
"It's not like you'd die." He remarked.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXo5FFX80yl
I rolled my eyes and in response he smirked, his yellow eyes burning, almost straight into me it seemed.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBxn0gBCnU9
"Sorry, I don't recall offering myself as a Martyr for you." I sneered.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSaFEHyG9mB
"Unfortunate, haven't had that offer in a while. . . and you my dear could last me for forever. . ."
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdwl0r0v9ff
He sighed, as if bored with the conversation and stood.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDiX5nUKpAt
Carefully, my eyes followed him, as he paced the room.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡljj740bO77
"Relax child, I will not harm you."
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7FIw3uowNf
"You've already harmed Ben, how can I assure that you won't lie to me about more hmm?"I tested.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK6b4YW5cgz
He held up his index finger and smiled coming closer.
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZWASJl1aZ6
"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."
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNfx9oEjuyh
"So, as you can see Kaiden, I don't have insurance in this situation, now do I?"
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPJzaZCk8wv
"Very well then. . . then I suppose this is farewell until you have the insurance you need, am I correct?"
241Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYyJHH0bHrP
Kaiden seemed to be very. . . testing of my comfort of the situation.
