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.
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1pzq8mePMn
"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.
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWbjrgTyqvy
"Luna! at least wait till someone escorts you!" Alexander yelled.
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTabRMH1sT0
"Can't die, remember Alexander!" I laughed quietly, I heard Alexander scoff and order Lukas to grab a mop.
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡumT9BfDZVY
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.
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEqzCm1qrxQ
"Luna, where are we going?"
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSMU0pBKgDf
"Shh." I snapped.
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFiLw7kNj1Z
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.
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPQH9oG7KyW
"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.
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGlBbpGKuCj
I walked towards the big swan fountain, that had now froze over leaving a sparkling layer across the dark grey stone.
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbY7FNPTiNG
"What was that punishment about?" Jason interrupted my thoughts and I blinked.
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFBfZjlQ9I8
"What do you mean? I just took care of the possible backlash. . ."
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsHxQHqZOPn
"Normally you and I, share what the decided punishment is, let alone, kill a handful at once as punishment. . ."
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8DELejR29c
"Well it's already happened, can't change the past." I snapped.
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRlqaToI5iM
"That's. . . Not the point." He sighed pausing.
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡllCvD8ol22
"What were you gonna do with that guy Rickey anyway?"he questioned.
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTeGVNKDomd
To be truthful, I wasn't really too sure he just. . . drew my attention.
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpHaJcX7iR9
"Nothing, I was just curious."
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwBYpqcgk8x
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.
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmcnGFBQBC1

"Ben's coming over for the usual check in, right?" Jason asked, putting on a white T shirt.
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡftbFzuYLsD
"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."
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbVxpiLuM3O
"Ben never texts or calls us." Jason scoffed.
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJA8m53NWJH
"Well the point is I told him if he felt the need, to do so okay Mr. Smart ass" I laughed quietly.
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx8klK1wwP4
"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.
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPjGkTf8t8t
I tilted my head back, as he placed a gently kiss on my lips before pulling away.
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA1CjgMgTQ1
"Don't get into too much trouble. . ." I teased.
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtbXMiyDNbB
"Come on. . . it's just Darian and Jay after all"
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7PBnKD3VQA
I shoved him by the chest a little bit making him step back and shoved him his leather jacket.
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJABvPyZwd8
He chuckled and walked out of the foyer.
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlEKVbhjJPI
Alexander walked in passing Jason on the way and looked at me.
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKPCz2UjMtn
"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. . ."
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2j1kzjtxBX
He opened his mouth to speak and I cut him off.
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSq34IFaCf9
"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."
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNKR9Qhl8jL
Alexander quickly shut his mouth, almost seemed to be biting his tongue and nodded before leaving the room.
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ30dMA0Sje9
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.
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcssljegC4V
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.
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV1EYKbQ2ka
"Luna, Ben is here for you." Alexander's voice broke through my thoughts.
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFdRFj2hzII
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.
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJIvqlzG1yr
"Jacket?" Alexander asked Ben.
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrBsFmHZWDv
Ben shook his head and then walked towards me, I looked at him concerned.
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ14ySFNLrkY
"Something wrong?" I asked, as I waived him to sit in the white and gold chair in the corner.
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡriYpMAu0tB
Alexander looked at me for approval to leave and I nodded.
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYqbHGpCBX2
Ben finally sat down and sighed.
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9usT8ITiNf
"I. . . I don't know, I was about to call you, then I didn't and I just have this. . ."
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9lboDitbs5
He paused.
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7RLO2deShK
"This thirst, like a thirst I can't cure."
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHEmGJ4yYmS
He sounded tense and he fidgeted with his hands.
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5dQ4BFaHr3
Was Ben experiencing blood lust from me taking so much blood?
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaYhJKrO7r8
"Are you sick?"
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWL11R5H5PN
He shook his head.
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQmlaGE79zm
"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."
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Q8WBsIjPl
"Is that why he's been screaming 'drink from her' since I've arrived?" Ben interrupted.
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFuu0FKCf8m
I froze and my eyes watched Ben closely. It was still Ben, but it made me cautious.
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe8rCVoxKGD
Something I very rarely felt.
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO9v2MkBZMY
"Probably. . ."
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe4EcdDd4pg
"What do I do?" he sounded as if he were begging.
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhdcIN6x2si
He was in pain. A lot of it. . .
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFT4EtCqmOM
"I don't know, I don't know enough about a human having this problem. . . let alone a. . . dragon." I cleared my throat.
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb8HfXEYFm3
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.
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVWMlV3Dvg1
"Why is it coming through now? usually it doesn't effect me you know?" he said as he rubbed his throat.
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1eRea5BZ8L
"I warned you, he would become stronger with everyday, let alone feeding him."
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWjFznhEnJd
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.
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu3mDjoUe59
"Truly, being stuck in this human is becoming very. . . bothersome."
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡswm6T8LDED
Suddenly, I heard Kaiden's low voice.
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrCvTvtIATL
"I'm quite sure it is being smaller and all, now tell me why must you bother the poor human with your troubles?"
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqmT8XWXUL3
"You said it yourself my dear, as I grow stronger the more control I have over him, over us."
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnKqEz09IRf
His words rolled off of his tongue.
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7e6twgRX7A
"So, you wish to not be in control of such a thing?" I looked at him.
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZWX18fLywN
His face was plain, as if there was no emotion.
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp8OUK4p1YV
"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."
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgCKFS7moGD
I huffed.
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUR4CUmIbad
"So what, ripping into me is carnage enough for you?"
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP9PsqEY4KR
"It's not like you'd die." He remarked.
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ31GrHQHqoc
I rolled my eyes and in response he smirked, his yellow eyes burning, almost straight into me it seemed.
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP7msQ0rpxL
"Sorry, I don't recall offering myself as a Martyr for you." I sneered.
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJoFA0dCrfe
"Unfortunate, haven't had that offer in a while. . . and you my dear could last me for forever. . ."
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDRqxgFaVhe
He sighed, as if bored with the conversation and stood.
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1odgrnau6g
Carefully, my eyes followed him, as he paced the room.
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1zWVRViGI2
"Relax child, I will not harm you."
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL5JhCPP8yJ
"You've already harmed Ben, how can I assure that you won't lie to me about more hmm?"I tested.
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4bJbcdYuXt
He held up his index finger and smiled coming closer.
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpVrPDQ4tLM
"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."
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOAmUpcS7rq
"So, as you can see Kaiden, I don't have insurance in this situation, now do I?"
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9GmCbfKeRZ
"Very well then. . . then I suppose this is farewell until you have the insurance you need, am I correct?"
192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYkpp6iY9bX
Kaiden seemed to be very. . . testing of my comfort of the situation.
