Not a True Blood fan? Don't worry, I've made it so anyone who has a thing for vampires can understand everything.
Kain's POV
I was walking over to the house, thinking what day it was. "Today's Thursday...so that means Ema right?" I walked inside the house in Nevada, a prostitution house to be exact. It was near the infamous Bunny Ranch, only the locals of the locals know where this one is. It's a lot sleazier than the Bunny Ranch, but what I need from here is quick and if I can help these women in any way I would like to. Most of them were teenage mothers, or just never got the right help in bad situations. I liked coming here, it felt good fitting in with a bunch of other scumbags.
"Hey there bad boy, come back for more punishment?" I looked over to find this women I was with every Wednesday, Amber.
"Sorry Miss Amber, I'm here for Ema today." I said a little uneasily. "Do you happen to know where she is?"
"I'm afraid you missed her. Said the babysitter canceled on her and had to pick up her daughter, she said she'd hope to reschedule with you." Yup, one of the cases of teenage mothers.
"Thank you for the information Amber," I smiled at her. "Do you know anyone else that wouldn't mind switching with Ema this week?" Amber was about to say something, probably to volunteer herself, until the woman who was next to her interrupted.
"Wow, I've never had the pleasure of having you babe." She was a short skinny girl with long blond hair. She suddenly came up to me and took my hand.
"I want you, do you want me?" Even as a vampire I felt the seduction come off of her southern voice. I smiled politely and she escorted me towards her room. I could hear Amber sneering in the corner.
Once in the room I whispered with my own seductive voice "Sweetie, I want you. Everyone wants you, who cannot want you?" I ventured to plant a kiss on her neck when she interrupted.
"That all fine and hunky darlin', but talk about the cash." I shuffled for my wallet.
"$250 for but a kiss, and only a kiss." I laid the money down on the table.
"That it?" she said with a crocked eyebrow.
"Thats all I need, but be warned. This will be a very passionate kiss." She nodded when I sat on the bed.
I started to kiss her lips lovingly to get her body to relax. I gently stroked the back of her head and back with my fingers, a moan escaped her for a moment as her back arched. I moved my kisses to the neck, gently caressing it and whispering sweet nothings in her ear. When I thought she was ready I sucked a spot on her neck, having my saliva completely cover the area. In a brief moment I let my fangs appear and bite down onto the flush.
"Uhh huuh." She moaned as I sucked the sweet blood, my fill of what I needed to survive. When I knew it was enough I sat her on the bed and her wound quickly disappeared, as if it was never there. I kissed her hand one more time to say thank you.
"Mmhhh you're going already? Don't ya wanna stay and have more fun?" She looked half drunk in ecstasy.
"I have had my pleasure for the evening, thank you very much. You have a lovely kiss." I smiled at her and left the room, I could still hear her moaning once I shut the door. I made it towards the front to find Amber. The blood I got from my Southern Bell pulsed in me, I felt great and had loads of energy.
"Did you make her shiver from your magic touch?" I looked at Amber, I had known her a long time.
"Miss Amber, you should know by now that I make everybody shiver." She gave me a smile while I opened the door and left.
By my car I saw Alec staring at the lights of the moving cars that we oversaw.
"Why must you do this?" He said without looking at me.
"Why must I do what?" I asked, even though I fully knew what he meant.
"About your "circumstances". Why do you feel you should pay women for their blood? It's simple to just glamor someone on the street and take a quick bite. The person is okay and you are okay, and you'd still have your $1750 by the end of the week." He glared at me.
"I have plenty of money, and you know it." I said while opening my car door. "I figure those poor people might need it a little more than I do. All in all, we're talking about pennies." I watched him get in the passenger seat and buckle his seat belt.
"Plus," I then added. "I much rather have somebody willing to donate their blood to me, than scaring someone to have it." I started to drive down the road.
"Hmph, whatever man you're money." Alec sneered while tapping his palm against the glass.
I made it to our usual destination, a empty parking lot on the outskirts of town. It was Alec's turn to get his meal of the day, the traditional way. I always went with him to help pick who the best person would be, and to make sure he never took too much. He would always yell at me saying I wasn't his Maker, and he could do whatever he wanted.
That was true. I couldn't make him do whatever I pleased. But even though our slanted views on ethics drew us apart, we had been close friends for a long time so they didn't matter to us.
I heard Alec groan after we walked a couple of blocks.
"What is it friend? I thought you always loved the thrill of the hunt." He started to slow down.
"I do, but not in the rain. The clouds are surely going to burst tonight. Maybe I should go back and get an umbrella." I laughed.
"What is a little rain to you oh mighty vampire? Rain is simply water, cannot hurt us, and barely touch us." Finding that my friend was afraid of rain made me laugh. After all the years I've known him, something new always comes up.
"I'm not going to help you if we go back now. I can guarantee that I would get bored and just leave you. It's now or never." Another thing about Alec was he never liked hunting alone, even though he always enjoyed it.
"Fine, we'll have it your way. But if you start to get wet it isn't my fault alright?" I gave out a sigh while nodding my head.
A half hour later we were both stalking this lowly store owner. He was a very strong man, he's muscles easily seen through the dark. I saw Alec lick his lips, he liked them strong, he liked the struggle.
I watched my friend sneak up to him, and when the owner was about to turn around Alec struck him from behind and bit down on his neck hard. The man stuttered a gasp, then lay limp.
A few minutes passed and I saw Alec clean everything up. He laid the man on the floor of his shop, fully alive, and even put $250 inside the owners pocket.
"It's rare to see you generous," I laughed.
"I'm just glad it wasn't raining." His remark made me snicker as we headed back to my car.
All of a sudden the stench of newly spilled blood roamed the air. It was a lot more than what Alec had gathered, I knew that right away. We exchanged curious glances as we followed the fair aroma. I was instantly worried that someone was hurt, and if he or she was, they wouldn't live much longer. Finally the source was known to us as we entered a small alley. There was a vampire, obviously new, draining this poor woman dry. He was dripping everywhere and I could see that he was covered in it.
"Thats not his first kill tonight," I thought to myself.
Alec and I beckoned him to stop. Alec was saying the blood would expose us all because of the mess this young vampire made. I yelled at him that killing in this area, my domain, is against the laws. I was sheriff of these lands and even though I knew I couldn't stop all the killing, I could at least try to prevent some of it. He let out a growl and dropped the lifeless body.
I snarled back at him when I noticed lightning start to flash, soon thunder followed.
"Who is your Maker?" I yelled at him with my fangs exposed. Alec strutted in front of me and approached this new killer.
"Who is your Maker?" Alec asked again. The vampire looked down and said "The mighty Lestat de Lioncourt is my Maker. You have the right to fear him." I snorted.
"Can you please bring me to your Maker?" Alec said in a calm voice.
"You wish to worship his greatness is that true?" I started to growl louder.
"Yes, let me meet him if you might be so kind." Alec stood there and tried to get the other vampire to show him the way to the Maker. Suddenly another lightning bolt zipped across the sky, and rain drops started to rapidly fall.
As Alec tried to get some information out of "Lestat's" child, I attended to the body. I felt so sorry for this women, it seemed she died with much pain. "The bastard," I thought. I then made a frightful discovery. This body was none other than Ema, the prostitute I was supposed to meet tonight. "The poor thing," I said aloud. She was very young, too young to die. Suddenly as the lightning rose to hit the sky another time, I saw two bright eyes looking at me through the rubble of garbage lined by the alley wall. I stiffened.
The two eyes looked at me. The rain poured down harder and faster, I looked at the blood to see it begin to wash away. Suddenly I heard Alec yell.
"Get the hell back here!" He said to the young one.
"But theres still a human here, I can smell it." He suddenly turned crazed and extended his teeth and roared.
"Alec, control him!" I roared. But it was too late, the vampire headed towards to the set of eyes that I had been looking at. Anger flooded me and I went after the vampire. I was able to pin him down using my whole strength and yelled at Alec to do something. He came up behind me and struck the vampire on the head, hard enough that could easily kill a human, but it simply made him pass out.
As I got off of him, Alec started binding his limbs together.
I looked back at the trash cans to find the eyes gone, I quickly looked around and heard a slight whimper. I walked over to find a little child in fetal position covered in garbage.
"Hello beautiful eyes," I gently cooed.
I attempted to pick her up when she screamed at me, and ran off to my side. I of course was faster, so I grabbed the girl from behind bringing her to my chest. She started kicking me and crying, fearing someone would hear I made her look into my eyes. I glamored her to make her fall asleep, and held her sleeping body close to me.
"So this is Ema's daughter she always tended to talk about," I thought sadly.
I cradled the child in my arms while walking over to Alec. He scoffed at me.
"I told you we should have went back for an umbrella."
(Bliss: Please R/R! I enjoy your comments :) Hoped you like the Lestat joke, haha)
