.::Natural Love ::.

Part One

Nairobi

I slept comfortably in the high tops of the trees. I always felt it was relaxing to feel the nice smelling breeze on my face in the morning. I only awoke when a long strand of my hair waved around on face. My brown hair was an astounding length, reaching down to my ankles. I never thought to cut so I always braid it back behind my head and sort of loop it around in two pony tails to get it out the way.

Even though the outdoors is peaceful at this time of the day, it's time like this I'd love to have a nice bed to sleep in. I can't remember a time I've had a real home. Because I don't have a family, I always had to fend for myself and travel around a lot. I've made many friends, and also enemies in my travels, mostly vampires.

Vampires are the main reason I move around. Fortunately, having to face them so often, my speed has grown to even surpass even the fastest of vampires. I don't mean to brag, but I've beaten every vampire I've ever faced. Even so, I decided to move closer to this area, where the ocean is near, to give me better advantage. Thankfully, I know many people around here, those with food and a home. For now, I'll play it safe and stay there, where I feel a little more secure.

Getting bored, I leaped from the tree and landed on the forest floor. My close friend, Dolores, who I call DeeDee, wasn't to far from here. I headed west toward the ocean where her family owned an Inn. I should be there by evening time if I hurry.

Rahab

Twilight turned to night as I walked through the dense forest, a few miles from my palace on the ocean shore. I couldn't bear looking at it for very much longer. I left hours earlier to clear my head. In that time, my brothers and my lord always came to mind, Melchiah not so much. He was such a useless weakling. I never understood why Lord Kain kept him alive for so long. Zephon wasn't entirely useless, mostly used for his power of stealth to as a spy on enemies. Dumah was a strong brute but he has the intelligence of an insect. Turel was the cruelest toward his human slaves. Even I had a particular liking to torture, but Turel took it to another level. And of course there's Raziel, the pampered second in command. Although, I can't help but have respect, if not envy for his position and power. Of all my brethren, he seems to be the most leveled and rational.

In my travels, my hunger grew tremendously, making me feel weary. I knew this area pretty well, enough to know that an Inn was not too far. If fortunate, I will find in unlucky human to restore me. With my speed, I reached it in a few minutes.

Once there, I quickly masked my appearance, a helpful trick I learned years back. Humans were so blind and gullible, that they made hunting a little too easy. My appearance was now that of a mortal man. My eyes turned an icy blue and my skin now had shades of gold instead of its ivory white.

I was in front of the inn, not to marvelous to look at but suitable for these poor humans. I entered to see few people inside. I sat at the closest empty table, beneath a lantern. Most of them appeared filthy and the women were either whores or single mothers. The men were too disgusting to even look at, less then drink from. The man behind the counter was obviously the owner, and the waitress that approached me was apparently his daughter.

I've seen prettier girls, I thought, but her blond shoulder length hair and blue eyes made her a little appealing.

"Good evening sir. I'm Dolores. Would you like any thing sir?" She asked me. Her voice was soft. If I weren't a vampire, I wouldn't be able to hear her.

"Surprise me." I said simply. I winked at her and she walked away. Her face turned red, making my hunger grow even more intensely. She would do for now. With her I'd have the energy to search for another. I knew I couldn't attack her now. Previous hunting has taught me patience, especially when surrounded by a crowd.

It took her a while to return back with a drink. She advanced hesitantly towards me.

"I brought you water, is that alright?" She asked me softly. Her voice became quite tiresome; I would enjoy ending it later on.

"That will be fine." She slowly walked back. I quickly pushed the drink away. Of all the drinks to serve me, she gives me water. Although, my resistance to water has grown over the centuries, it still remained hazardous.

Suddenly from behind me, the door bursted open causing me to jerk my head. The blond also turned her head and smiled and gasped with excitement.

"Nairobi!?" She shouted. She and the girl at the door hugged and shrieked, which grew annoying. The owner also looked to see her.

"Nairobi, nice to see you again!" He exclaimed.

"Same here, sir!" She said and turned to the blonde. "Hey DeeDee! How have you been?" Nairobi said.

"I'm fine, but what about you look great?" Dolores said. I looked over and couldn't agree more. This Nairobi was beautifully built. Her body curved and moved perfectly as she walked toward the counter. Her hair shined under the lit lanterns surrounding the walls of the inn. I couldn't keep my eyes off of her. Unlike her friend, her voice projected throughout the inn. Her voice, however, sounded serene and comforting to my ears. Nairobi however was not as frail in appearance like Dolores, making her the easier catch. Seeing enough, I sat up preparing to leave.

"Is that all for you sir?" Dolores asked me.

"I'm satisfied for now." I smiled and turned to Nairobi and left. Dolores looked back at he table he sat at and noticed that he hadn't touched the drink she gave him.

Nairobi

When the man left, I couldn't help but blush. He was so well built and had a handsome face.

"DeeDee, who was he, and does he come here often?" I asked eagerly. She rolled her eyes.

"No, I've never seen him before. He's cute but a little strange." She said. "So what brings you here? Are looking for a place to stay?" I laughed a little.

"Yeah kinda. If you don't mind I guess." I said grinning.

"Sure of course. Business has been slow lately so there are plenty of rooms. Come on." She said. She walked behind the counter into the kitchen. I followed her closely, mostly because I easily get lost in places with multiple rooms. We walked up a staircase where the bedrooms were. From her side pocket, she took out a chain of keys, one of which she used to open a door. We walked into a bedroom. It was simple, with a bed, mirror, a wardrobe, and a single small window.

"Is this okay? I had already cleaned it out." She said.

"Thanks its perfect!" I said. I quickly jumped on the bed, enjoying its comfort. Dolores laughed.

"When was the last time you were in a bed?" She asked. I thought about before answering.

"I think the last time I was here. How long ago was that?"

"Nairobi, that was months ago." She said. "No one should have to live outside for so long. You should stay here a bit longer. Please!!!!!!!" I looked down away from her. I never stayed in one place for very long, not even with a friend.

"I don't know. I shou….."

"Please, Please, PULLEASEE!" She begged. She even did that lower lip puppy-dog look at me. I rolled my eyes and smiled.

"Alright, Alright! I'll only stay if the food is good." She laughed and headed towards the door.

"Okay, I'm going to make you something, but I'll need more fire wood to heat the stove. It'll only take a few minutes." She said

"Do you need any help?" I asked her while lying back on the bed. She shook her head

"No I'm fine. See you in a bit." She said and walks out. I rested back on the bed, now thinking of the man before. A guy like that you'd think would have a girlfriend. I always did hate not having a boyfriend. It sucked sometimes. I did want to marry eventually you know!!!

Rahab

I hid high above the trees to await my prey. Dolores walked out from the back door toward a shed. She was finally alone. The darkness was on my side, making my disguise unnecessary. I unmasked myself and silently leaped behind her.

"Alone, are we?" She turned and jumped back. Before she could run, I pushed her against the side wall of the shed.

"Nairobi!" She shouted. I covered her mouth to prevent her screams from being heard. She struggled for her freedom. I usually prefered to tease my female prey before I killed them, but this one wasn't worth the time. Perhaps if she were her friend, it would be different, but….my hunger was overwhelming. With my free hand I tilted her neck, prepared to be restored. She shut her eyes tightly, knowing she was going to die. As I prepared to feed, something flew by my face, shinning a bit of my shoulder. I looked to see a kitchen knife pieced into the shed's door. I turned to see Nairobi, with one of her hands on her hips, the other holding a second knife.

"Let her go!" She demanded. I turned back and looked at the knife. Its blade was completely through the wood, with only its handle visible. If she had aimed any closer, I'm sure I'd be dead. I grabbed the knife and turned to her.

"I did not plan to kill you, but I can't have too many witnesses, can I?" I dug the knife through Dolores's sleeve. I can't have my meal escape me. I showed her my fangs and approached her slowly. I loved the look on her face when she realized what I was. She charged at me with the knife and swiped at me. I must admit, she was quick on her feet. She was a born fighter, which explained her shape. She was fast, but I was no mortal. I grabbed her arms and pinned her to the ground with me on top. I smiled at my new prey and kissed her neck. She looked, not with hate, or anger, but with determination. I grabbed the knife from her and prepared to kill her. I could here the screams from Dolores from behind me. I took one last look in Nairobi's eyes. A fiery hazel, staring at me. My arm began to shake.

Why? Why couldn't I kill her? The knife was at her throat. I could end her here and now……but

I drove the knife into the dirt, near her shoulder. I pulled her to her feet by her shirt and pushed her to the wall. I grabbed her shoulders making sure she could not move. She did not scream or howler. She only groaned when I tightened my grip on her. As I held her, I felt my hunger diminish, replaced with a much deeper need. When I finally lost all my senses, our lips locked. She tried to stop me, but I could not release her. I could feel her body tense and heat when I kissed her neck and beneath her chin. When I released her, she fell to her knees, holding her arms. I turned away from her, ashamed and pathetic for sparing her. I, Rahab, a royal prince, whose deadly hands were halted by this girl. She noticed my hesitation and hurried to her friend. Before she could get too far, I grabbed her arm.

"You will regret me sparing you! By tomorrow night, this inn will burn to the ground with you in it." I said with anger. I through her to the ground with my rage. I then leaped back into the shadows of the forest, leaving the two in the still night.

Despite my threat, I could not kill that girl, though retribution was in order. Some way, they would pay.
