Love, Family, and Hate: Act two
By:Lilly Rose
Part one:
"What are Dreams? What are Hopes?
Gina sat up, it was another bad dream. It was the same one that she been having from the start of her new life here. Luicen told her that things were going to change now that she was living at the Raven. Jeantte just told that she was going to learn to be something more. But the dream told that something evil was going to happen.
It always started the same, she was walking in to the Raven and the was no one, not even one vampire. She knew it was night and the fact that no one was in her made want to leave. But something was calling her in here. She heard a voice calling her name she felt the power of another here. She saw a dead body, it was her grandmother. She knew she had to keep going she knew someone needed her. Then she heard the voice calling to her. It was deep and full of power, it remind her of her past but she just could place the voice.
As she enter Luicen's office, she saw a man stand there with a knife. Luicen was badly hurt. Nick kneeing by his side saying something to the man. Then the man turned, his face was covered by some kind of darkness. Gina knew him, at frist she thought it was Donovan, but he was just a little too tall. He said something in a soft voice that made Gina mind knew that the was not Donovan.
The man turned around and look in to his eyes. He said something she just could hear. His lips were turned up in an evil smirk, she almost though she saw fangs, yet he seemed to be human.. Yet there was a darkness in his eyes that made her want to scream. To call on any holy thing that would hear her, any God or Goddess who would care. His knife went in to her belly cutting her deep, she felt her blood rase in to her mouth. She could feel the pain and taste her own blood. The blood that so many wanted to have yet, so few would even try to get it.
Her eyes moved to her love, she saw that he too was badly cut. But his wound was healing. Her's was killing her. She tired to moved to Luicen side but the man stop her. He grading by her middle and push her to him. Her blood was going all over the man, but all he did was smile. Only then when she knew she was about to die did he placed a soft kiss to her forehead and said:
"This does not needed to be, just leave before it's to late. Before any of them knew what you can truly do... Before you get yourself killed... And all of them killed... For your death is coming and I am the one who will take you to it. I am the Dark side of the Light and the one you have always feared, I will take your soul to hell and let it burn in the fires... So run little girl, run. There is no where for you to hide for you are mine..." His voices seemed to be of one the past, a past so far away she couldn't place it.
Then she would hit the ground, the hard cold floor. The cold wooden floor would turn in to dirt, then the cold night air would wash over her. Icy fingers ran over her body, the same old voice a kinder sweet voice would be heard. Yet his or her words that slept on the wind was hardly heard never clear spoken. But the feelings where the same, the feelings of love and caring. The moon light would wash of her and she would wake.
______________________________________________________________
Upon the same second of the same mintue Nick would wake. He same old feelings move would wash over him, the feelings of death and pain. The anger of the fact that he had been token from what he wanted for so long. The fact that the father had changed the son again. He hated the knowage that he was used to hurt the ones he cared for. Yet there was another fear deep with in him...
Gina was the answer, she was the key to his new life with Nat.. They would both be saved from his wrong doing. He needed blood, not any blood, but the blood of someone he had could do no harm to, but the girl whose were light like the sun, whose words rang only true. The girl, the woman that his father was falling for. Yet, how could he ask Nat to live this life so that he wouldn't have to hurt the sweet little girl named Gina.
Yet having to take the blood angst her will, having to have to hurt her to get the cure made him more sick to his undead heart. The frist she knew what she was doing, she did what she had to fought him and yet this time it would have to be more painful for her. He didn't know if he could stop, if he would kill her like he almost did Nat. Yet unseen force had saved them, saved his Nat..
Nat... Nat.. Nat.. Her name was like his heart beat, his soul.
The sweet faced woman who he woke up to all those years ago, who was going to cut in his flesh with her small knife. Yet when his badly blue eyes opened and look upon him, his angel. For mintue on that day that would always live in his soul, he thought that he can finely gone to haven, had finely been forgiven. Yet she back up and starred at him. He knew she was not angel but just another human, but he knew that his sweet Nat was not just another human or vampire now. She was his soul still. She was all he would ever need.
Yet he wish he could turned to the monster let it free. So that maybe he could have change at freedom. He could live in the cold darkness of night without longing for the warm sun light on his face. So that he could live with himself of how he had hurt the ones around. Him he wish for... That was the thing he didn't knew what he wanted. He wanted to be human with Nat... Or stay a vampire and always have Nat by his side.
But every time Gina would walk in to the room, he would smell her sweet blood and remember. Her blood carried life. Life in the warm sun, he needed her. Yet to look in her eyes he saw that she was in pain, because he knew so much more about her now. He knew more about her then she did. He knew everything. There was a bond between them now. He could sometimes hear her thoughts. Feel her feelings. See her dreams. That's what scared him the most her dreams. He knew if she didn't get the answers that she needed about the dream she would go. And take with her his only change of being human again.
Yet there was part of him that wanted to stay in the darkness want to life like this with Nat. Make her his Dark lover. But he knew that Nat wanted the sun. (Or so the thought.) She wanted to have children.. So this made him want it. Made him want to take her away from all the evils little demons that ran in the unholy darkness.
He heard Jeanette walk in to the room, he felt her before. His sister was back to life, back to the undead world of pain and sadness. He knew she didn't want to be here, that she wanted to die in the fire. It was so hot in there that day. It was like hell. Something told him that what his sister felt also. He knew she though she was sur post to be in hell. That now she knew that she was needed and some day she would be going back in to the fire. Or back to the darkness forever.
"Ah, your awake, do you want some wine?" Jeanette asked. She was walking to him. She wearing a new dress, it was her was the dress she wore more when things had been easier. It was the color of Dark blood. She sat on the bed just looking at him. "Come love, why do you look so up set, mmmm?"
"It's nothing, a Dark dreams, that's all... Where is the rest of our 'loving family' this eve?" He ask sitting up. His head hurt, he was having the same dream. A man was coming to kill everyone he cared for and even if Gina didn't knew it. He was going to help he as he must try to help himself to her blood. Her sweet blood.
"Our father is out, Gina is still in bed. Nat is at work and I am here with you. Is there anything else, my little brother?" Jeantte was having fun with him, she always did. She was trying to make him smile, trying to get him to open his eyes. She knew he was hurting and only wanted to make it better. Things had changed between them. He tough it was the fire. He could remember the look on her face when she asked him to let her die. To let her soul finely get some rest. But others had different planes. He wish he could help her, but his soul was just as tired as hers.
He wanted to ask, but he knew he couldn't, not yet any way. Was it Donovan who saved him or something darker. He couldn't think. He didn't knew as he looked at his sister's eyes. He knew that she wasn't just his sister anymore. She was far greater and far more....
End of part one.
Part two.
The Raven was filled tonight, it seemed that everything a live and undead was in this room. Gina's blue eyes look over the Raven. She was used to this place now. But it still was not home. No, it was cold here. Lucien was acting as if he didn't even see her sometimes. This hurt, she knew he was trying to make up his mind about her. She hurt him when she told to bring Nick back across. Now all she had to do was wait for Nick to come and feed off her again. She needed him to, he had to feed off her. He had to become human. It was because of her that him and his father were not speaking again. She hated that more then she hated herself.
Her eyes were almost all red, she wasn't sleeping or eating. She couldn't when she took in park of Nick's life force a month ago to make him human she had taken some of the vampire in herself. At first the hunger was to much for her to take. This had happen only 2 times before. It hurt, she didn't like it, but for Nick she was willing to take on what ever she needed to fix what she did.
She walk to the bar, she needed a drink. She knew Jeanette would gave her what ever she wanted. She didn't understand love, it was just like being sick and ready to die. Her eyes meet Jeanette's, Jeanette understood better then anyone in this room. She knew Jeanette was the only one out of the four vampires that knew this. She also knew that Jeanette knew how much she loved Luicen LaCroix, how much she lust after him and the fact that she had pick him to change her. Donovan was right, she needed to become a vampire but not by his unfeeling hand no, by Luicen's hand.
"What wrong Gina?" She asked as she saw Gina eyes. They looked sad and sicken. She had seen that look many times. Gina had the look of someone who falling in love, or was deeply in. Yet, how could this child love someone like Luicen LaCroix? There had to be a reason for that madness. "Tell me young one, what is wrong?" She laid a glass of blood wine on bar before a male vampire. She moved to where Gina stood at the end of the bar. She leaned on the bar, " Is it the pain? Do you needed to feed again?" She knew what happened when Gina took in Nicola's life force.
Or was it the pain of being in love with her old father. She knew that pain of how he only used people that he never felt what you felt. No he could never love he even said so, a long time ago.
"That and am lonely, have you seen your father? He never seems to want to talk to me any more. Is he even doing his show here any more?" She press her hand on her mouth, she was in pain from the fangs. She knew they would go away once all of Nick's life force was out her. She just needed to wait. "He was post to sit with me, we were going to talk about every thing that has happened."
"He went out last night, he didn't say much about where he was going. He didn't come back at all. But don't worry I knew he has not gone to see the sun rise, he mostly sleeping in one of his other resting places. He will be back and his show is already on my dear, I think he might be using tapes. I don't knew."
"Oh, I see. Then maybe he only wants to me to leave him alone. But I can't go yet... I need to speak to him and there's Nick, I must wait and see if he will feed on me again.. And Nat..." She trailed off looking at the bar. She study the lines in the bar. It seemed that this place was getting to her. Changing she needed to get out of here, but how could she leave her heart her and live without it?
"I needed the blood wine, I needed something to get the sound of all these heart beat out of my head. Please Jeanette, gave me something that will make me sleep. I have not been sleeping at all. All I have is Dark dreams."
She said to herself.
"Yes, dear. I'll get it for you, but you shouldn't drink it in the open. After I gave it to you go drink it in the office, and lay down." She also knew that LaCriox would go in there once he came back. She also knew with that much sleeping potion, she had put in the drink Gina would finely get some sleep. Only the dead would wake her up tonight and if Jeanette was luck the dead man would be her father.
************************************************************
Luicen LaCroix walked in the Raven, his home. Gina was here, her smell was in the air. Her lovely sweet smelling blood. Gods, how he wanted her and her blood. He was scared of loving her. Needing her, she was such a child and yet a women, with her wisdom and words. He knew that if he hurt her he would hurt himself. It was to much to be in the same room with her. To see her face as she smiled at him. As he walk past all the people that made him so much money. He knew the Raven was hunting grounds for so many vampires. But tonight he went some place else. To the park, for a night run and to feed. However the feeding have became to hard for him...
But every time he saw a human walking by there lonesome, they not were good enough for him. He didn't feel like he used to, their was new feelings in him. Feelings he had killed along time ago on a very cold and lonely night. He had told himself 300 years ago that he would never love or have feels of love again. Love was evil and deadly. Love was deadlier then hate. So Many have died because of love. It didn't mater what kind of love. Someone would die for it. If he loved someone they would leave him or die because of him.
Yet a young girl wanted him to see her as willing lover. This girl did not understand what she was getting herself in to. She could die. Is this what his son felt every time he looked at the Doctor? Was his son put under the same spell? He would never ask. If he told any one how he felt, they knew his weakness was a human then she would be killed or hurt. He didn't want this.
His eyes moved around the room. He never saw the Raven so filled. His Jeanette was back at the bar her sweet smile on her lovely lips. He saw the smile as clear as day he saw the sadness behind the smile. His child was lonely. He wish he could gave her more, gave her what she wanted most.
"Hello, LaCriox," she said leaning on the bar, " how was the hunt?" She was playing with bit of her hair, moving it around her fingers, just raping it around her little finger. Then undoing it, she had a child like look on her pale face. Yet LaCroix knew this face had seen death and was the last face that some had seen before they had died. This was his Dark angel, his angel of death. There was so much that he loved her for. She was his first real child, there were others but none that made his heart hurt when she was in pain, made him want to fix all that ever hurt her. She and his son was who he could never live without... Until now there was Gina, she and her lovely blue eyes that could tell him so much and hurt his very soul.
"Not very well," he turned around and look at all the people, "I think I would have had better luck here. Oh, well gave me a blood wine please." In a low voice that only his child could hear, "With more blood then wine."
As she gave it to him she said, "Why don't you go sit in the office, it might help you get some things off your mind..." She wore an evil smile on her face as she watch her father move to the office his drink in his hand, she wondered what would happen when he found Gina. She knew what she was doing was wrong, but she was bored and wanted some fun around here. And this would be fun, yes it would be very fun.
*****************************************************************
Part 3
Gina took the last drink out of the cup as her dream man came in to the room. A wine glass, her glass twin in his hand. He didn't see her right away, his eyes were stayed on his cup. They were yellow, golden and not at all scary. They made her want to kiss him and do unthinking able things to him.
"Hello, Luicen," she said from her place on the big soft chair behind his desk. "Why don't you sit? You said we could talk..." She sounded drunk, as if she had way to much wine. He did not smell it in the air. All he could smell was her. He wanted her. Now.
"Yes, that would be nice." He sat on the edge of the desk just right in front of her, "What would you like to talk about?" He lean in a little closer then pulled back. He took a quick drink of his blood wine.
Gina could smell the lovely blood that was going past his lips, those lovely lips, that were asking for her kiss. She sat up looking in to his eyes. Talk just over a whisper she said right in his ear, "Us." She sat back in the chair.
"Mmm, I see. What is there to talk about? I mean you have stay away and so have I." He said looking in to her warm blue eyes, that seem to have bits of gold swimming in them. Almost as if she was like he, but he knew that was not true for this girl was alive and he wouldn't do anything to change that.
End of 3.
Now we move on to Nick and Nat. This part is called 'The Great Plan"
Nat was sitting at her desk her little radio going, she doing a report. But her mind would not let her stay on it. It was the smell of blood all around her. Grace said she looked pale, if only Grace knew the half of it. The fact she needed to keep blood with all the time made her sick. She didn't think that it would be like this. And the one person she wanted the most to talk to and hold wasn't even talking to her.
The song on the radio stopped and the DJ voice filled the room.
"We got request from a Knight to his lady love, Lady Nat... He say that he wants only for her to forgive him. Here's the Hearts with 'Secret'."
"We lead two different lives
Just like two lines that never cross
And here we are together
Standing closer than we are
But we're still standing here untouched
We want so much to touch
And we can't wait Forever
We Know it's dangerous
For us be together."
The song was cutting in to her heart. It was one they had drance to a year ago. This she always thought of this song when she was around Nick. This song was always there to remind her she and her lover might not be alone in there pain. That all they needed to do was be together.
"How do we ever keep it in the Dark
And if we dare to taste our weakness
How could we tear ourselves apart
Why do we keep this love together
Didn't we know right from the start
That we would have keep this secret
Or Forever stay apart...."
She could feel the same old tears come to her eyes. Blood red tears came to her eyes. It was to much. She felt him near. She turned around and there he was. His eyes stood on hers. He look as if the song meant the same to him. She needed him now more then anything. She was going to lose her mind if he didn't touch her now.
"I watch you coming to me
Walking in the pouring rain
I can't help looking at you
Wishing I could stay away
So many times I've tired in vain
To close my eyes and pray it goes away
But I can't stop myself from feeling
To let you go would be too much
For me to take..."
"I am sorry Nat, I never meant to hurt you," He placed his hand on her face. As his took the tears from her pale face his lips kissed her forehead. He just held her. Wanting all her pain to leave her. Wanting her to love him again He felt his undead heart skip a beat. This was the woman he had be wanting for so long. He didn't know if she would forgive him for leaving her alone with her pain and the change.
"How do we ever keep this secret
How do we keep it in the Dark
And if we dare to taste our weakness
How could we tear ourselves apart
Why do we keep this love together
Didn't we know right from the start
That we would have to keep the secret
Or forever stay apart.
I can't help thinking
When I look into your eyes
How much I need
It's so hard to hide..."
"Yes, Nick... I forgive you, I want you so much." She hugged her lover to her. This felt great. Her tears were gone. She loved this man, it was like having her soul mate standing before. She wanted to hold him forever. He was right she was his Lady Nat and he was her, Sir Nick. She wish that they meet in that life. It would have made things so much easier. So much happier.
"How do we ever keep this secret
How do we keep it in the Dark
And if we dare to taste our weakness
How do could we tear ourselves apart
Why do we keep this love together
Didn't we know from the start
That we would have to keep this secret
Or be doomed to stay apart."
"We aren't like the song. We are not doomed, Nat we have the cure, but how are we going to use it?" Nick asked her as the song ended.
Nat let go of him and turn off the radio. "There has to be away without hurting her.
All we have to do is take her blood, agist her will, right?" Nat asked as she moved closer to her Dark lover. Gina was the key, but what if she could stay as she was, a vampire. They could stay together forever, her and her knight. But she would do what he wanted.
"Yes, that all they we have to do is to get her blood..." Nick turned around, he didn't want her to see what was in his eyes. " Her blood carries more life in it then any other, it's like being in heaven. Nat, if we take it we will be human. Be able to have children and live in the sun." He turned to look at her, " You do want to live with me and have kids, right Nat?"
"You know I do, I want everything I can have... In fact am almost off want go to my place?" She still had her home. Her cat however was staying with Grace, she was to scared she hurt him. She told Grace she was working with print and that he didn't like it and she was scared he would eat some of it. Grace bought it.
"Mmmmm... That would be great, let's go."
(At Nat's place.)
They had just walk in to her little home. "Would you like a drink?" Nat asked, all the food things were gone. She had bottles of blood in the cooler, all
kinds. She loved the mixing all the types, A with O. She didn't know if that was normal or if that would make her sick. It did make her feel better when the hunger was upon her.
"All I want is you right now... Come here Nat," his eyes were burning gold. His fangs had not drop yet but it was close. He wanted her, there was all the signs. He was hard as hell and he want to bring the souls as one.
Nat walked to him, she was not scared. She wanted him more then she wanted anyone else. She place her hand on his chest. "Then take me right now, my Dark lover."
He pick her up and carried her to the bed room. His lips went down on hers and never lift. She lick and kissed his lips. This is what she been waiting for. Her lover was finely loving her. She let herself go, she needed to be with him all of her. As she was laid on the bed her mind was only on sex and her love for man who was standing before her.
Nick's eyes fixed on the zipper of her dress. His hands were to slow to undo them all. Take both sides of the dress he ripped down the center. She lay in front of him in her bra and underwear. His hands covered her chest. "Are you sure, my love?" He didn't want to take anything she wasn't ready to gave.
In answer to Nick's question she ran her hand down to harden manhood. "I am very sure. Are you sure you're up to it?" She rub him a bit she already knew the answer.
"Nat if I was any more up for it, I'd be in the heaven, mmmm... But being in your arms already heaven." He slowly licked at her thought her bra. He could her moan, her voice filling the room.
Nat and Nick made love like they always wanted to, both seeing the love in each others eyes. As they came to their joy and end of the mating, both sets of their eyes were golden and their fangs had came in to the others neck drinking of their lover's love and blood.
Their arms around each other they looked in to their lover's eyes. "I have ideal, Gina has always told me she hates it when she when doctor takes blood from her.. A needle, it will work, we'll be doing it agist her will, and her blood would still carry the cure." She kissed Nick's noise.
"It's ideal, we can try it, and it wont hurt her." His eyes smiles in to her. And the game started all over again, him kisses and licking at her lips and her sucking on his tongue. This was the there of getting the fire in to them again.
Their only thoughts of how they love each other, but what the other didn't know is that both wanted to stay a vampire, just for the other seek they would be come human.
Loves sweet pain
Part 5
"You are such a jerk! I hope you never come near me again!" Luicen just told Gina, that he had no feeling for her, and that he saw her as only child. He saw the tears coming over her face, the only thing he wasn't ready for was that her tears were mixed with blood.
"What is this, blood? Who did this to you? Who changed you?" His anger was burning in to him. He felt as if someone had hurt his lovely one. He took another step forward as she steps back. The look in her lovely blue eyes that of pain and lost.
"Why should do I have to tell you?" Her voice was cold and filled with sweet pain. "What would you care? Am nothing to you remember. Am nothing but a fucking child? REMEMBER?!?!"
That was to heartless, she was calling him on his own pain. This wasn't what he wanted. He wanted to let her go, let her be free to find a human man to love. To have little kids who would look up to her as their mother. And she was crying blood tears. He wanted to know who brought her across, who took that from him.
"I am not talking to you, you S.O.B!" her voice filled the room, only the vampires in the other rooms could hear it. One vampire sat near the door of the office with a sweet mean smile on his lips, as he drank his blood wine. He was thinking how much fun he would have with the little bitch. Yes he would make sure the little bitch would pay. Making him look like fool in front of the other... Yes.. He would have her sweet blood and eat her heart.
Luicen look to the woman he was falling in love with the woman who made his undead heart beat. The woman who made him want to fall on his knees and kiss her feet. Yet right now. He need her to be space from her. He need to be away from the one thing that gave his unlife meaning. He had to many people around him that didn't like him to much. He wanted her safe. And if others thought he didn't care for her that would make her safer.
Gina's blood tears covered her face. She didn't like this. Her heart was moving her soul to death. Her soul was leaving her. Heart stopped beating. Then it wasn't the pain from his words. A different pain cut to her. It was the pain of losing the last bit of Nick in her changeling her back human.
Was that pain he saw on her face. Real pain? What had he done to her? He moved to her as he saw her all to her knees. He held her as she throw up the blood she had just drank. He held her as she sod agist him. He held her as she look up at him and he held as he kissed. He held her when she fall a sleep in his arms from the pain. He held when he carried her to his bed and he held as he laid down beside her. He held her. He held her. He cried.

Part 4
The vampire smiled. Yes things as it was planed. This would work. The vampire licked it's lips, walking back to the bar. The vampire walked in to the night. It's golden eyes look around until it meet it's master.
"How is it going?" The man said, studying the vampire.
"She has them all fooled.. Even herself fooled master." The vampire said watching the man.
"Good.. Now go keep watch. You know what to do....."
An evil smile stay on the vampire's lips.. "Yes master."

Love, Family, and Hate: Act two
By:Lilly Rose
Part one:
"What are Dreams? What are Hopes?
Gina sat up, it was another bad dream. It was the same one that she been having from the start of her new life here. Luicen told her that things were going to change now that she was living at the Raven. Jeantte just told that she was going to learn to be something more. But the dream told that something evil was going to happen.
It always started the same, she was walking in to the Raven and the was no one, not even one vampire. She knew it was night and the fact that no one was in her made want to leave. But something was calling her in here. She heard a voice calling her name she felt the power of another here. She saw a dead body, it was her grandmother. She knew she had to keep going she knew someone needed her. Then she heard the voice calling to her. It was deep and full of power, it remind her of her past but she just could place the voice.
As she enter Luicen's office, she saw a man stand there with a knife. Luicen was badly hurt. Nick kneeing by his side saying something to the man. Then the man turned, his face was covered by some kind of darkness. Gina knew him, at frist she thought it was Donovan, but he was just a little too tall. He said something in a soft voice that made Gina mind knew that the was not Donovan.
The man turned around and look in to his eyes. He said something she just could hear. His lips were turned up in an evil smirk, she almost though she saw fangs, yet he seemed to be human.. Yet there was a darkness in his eyes that made her want to scream. To call on any holy thing that would hear her, any God or Goddess who would care. His knife went in to her belly cutting her deep, she felt her blood rase in to her mouth. She could feel the pain and taste her own blood. The blood that so many wanted to have yet, so few would even try to get it.
Her eyes moved to her love, she saw that he too was badly cut. But his wound was healing. Her's was killing her. She tired to moved to Luicen side but the man stop her. He grading by her middle and push her to him. Her blood was going all over the man, but all he did was smile. Only then when she knew she was about to die did he placed a soft kiss to her forehead and said:
"This does not needed to be, just leave before it's to late. Before any of them knew what you can truly do... Before you get yourself killed... And all of them killed... For your death is coming and I am the one who will take you to it. I am the Dark side of the Light and the one you have always feared, I will take your soul to hell and let it burn in the fires... So run little girl, run. There is no where for you to hide for you are mine..." His voices seemed to be of one the past, a past so far away she couldn't place it.
Then she would hit the ground, the hard cold floor. The cold wooden floor would turn in to dirt, then the cold night air would wash over her. Icy fingers ran over her body, the same old voice a kinder sweet voice would be heard. Yet his or her words that slept on the wind was hardly heard never clear spoken. But the feelings where the same, the feelings of love and caring. The moon light would wash of her and she would wake.
______________________________________________________________
Upon the same second of the same mintue Nick would wake. He same old feelings move would wash over him, the feelings of death and pain. The anger of the fact that he had been token from what he wanted for so long. The fact that the father had changed the son again. He hated the knowage that he was used to hurt the ones he cared for. Yet there was another fear deep with in him...
Gina was the answer, she was the key to his new life with Nat.. They would both be saved from his wrong doing. He needed blood, not any blood, but the blood of someone he had could do no harm to, but the girl whose were light like the sun, whose words rang only true. The girl, the woman that his father was falling for. Yet, how could he ask Nat to live this life so that he wouldn't have to hurt the sweet little girl named Gina.
Yet having to take the blood angst her will, having to have to hurt her to get the cure made him more sick to his undead heart. The frist she knew what she was doing, she did what she had to fought him and yet this time it would have to be more painful for her. He didn't know if he could stop, if he would kill her like he almost did Nat. Yet unseen force had saved them, saved his Nat..
Nat... Nat.. Nat.. Her name was like his heart beat, his soul.
The sweet faced woman who he woke up to all those years ago, who was going to cut in his flesh with her small knife. Yet when his badly blue eyes opened and look upon him, his angel. For mintue on that day that would always live in his soul, he thought that he can finely gone to haven, had finely been forgiven. Yet she back up and starred at him. He knew she was not angel but just another human, but he knew that his sweet Nat was not just another human or vampire now. She was his soul still. She was all he would ever need.
Yet he wish he could turned to the monster let it free. So that maybe he could have change at freedom. He could live in the cold darkness of night without longing for the warm sun light on his face. So that he could live with himself of how he had hurt the ones around. Him he wish for... That was the thing he didn't knew what he wanted. He wanted to be human with Nat... Or stay a vampire and always have Nat by his side.
But every time Gina would walk in to the room, he would smell her sweet blood and remember. Her blood carried life. Life in the warm sun, he needed her. Yet to look in her eyes he saw that she was in pain, because he knew so much more about her now. He knew more about her then she did. He knew everything. There was a bond between them now. He could sometimes hear her thoughts. Feel her feelings. See her dreams. That's what scared him the most her dreams. He knew if she didn't get the answers that she needed about the dream she would go. And take with her his only change of being human again.
Yet there was part of him that wanted to stay in the darkness want to life like this with Nat. Make her his Dark lover. But he knew that Nat wanted the sun. (Or so the thought.) She wanted to have children.. So this made him want it. Made him want to take her away from all the evils little demons that ran in the unholy darkness.
He heard Jeanette walk in to the room, he felt her before. His sister was back to life, back to the undead world of pain and sadness. He knew she didn't want to be here, that she wanted to die in the fire. It was so hot in there that day. It was like hell. Something told him that what his sister felt also. He knew she though she was sur post to be in hell. That now she knew that she was needed and some day she would be going back in to the fire. Or back to the darkness forever.
"Ah, your awake, do you want some wine?" Jeanette asked. She was walking to him. She wearing a new dress, it was her was the dress she wore more when things had been easier. It was the color of Dark blood. She sat on the bed just looking at him. "Come love, why do you look so up set, mmmm?"
"It's nothing, a Dark dreams, that's all... Where is the rest of our 'loving family' this eve?" He ask sitting up. His head hurt, he was having the same dream. A man was coming to kill everyone he cared for and even if Gina didn't knew it. He was going to help he as he must try to help himself to her blood. Her sweet blood.
"Our father is out, Gina is still in bed. Nat is at work and I am here with you. Is there anything else, my little brother?" Jeantte was having fun with him, she always did. She was trying to make him smile, trying to get him to open his eyes. She knew he was hurting and only wanted to make it better. Things had changed between them. He tough it was the fire. He could remember the look on her face when she asked him to let her die. To let her soul finely get some rest. But others had different planes. He wish he could help her, but his soul was just as tired as hers.
He wanted to ask, but he knew he couldn't, not yet any way. Was it Donovan who saved him or something darker. He couldn't think. He didn't knew as he looked at his sister's eyes. He knew that she wasn't just his sister anymore. She was far greater and far more....
End of part one.
Part two.
The Raven was filled tonight, it seemed that everything a live and undead was in this room. Gina's blue eyes look over the Raven. She was used to this place now. But it still was not home. No, it was cold here. Lucien was acting as if he didn't even see her sometimes. This hurt, she knew he was trying to make up his mind about her. She hurt him when she told to bring Nick back across. Now all she had to do was wait for Nick to come and feed off her again. She needed him to, he had to feed off her. He had to become human. It was because of her that him and his father were not speaking again. She hated that more then she hated herself.
Her eyes were almost all red, she wasn't sleeping or eating. She couldn't when she took in park of Nick's life force a month ago to make him human she had taken some of the vampire in herself. At first the hunger was to much for her to take. This had happen only 2 times before. It hurt, she didn't like it, but for Nick she was willing to take on what ever she needed to fix what she did.
She walk to the bar, she needed a drink. She knew Jeanette would gave her what ever she wanted. She didn't understand love, it was just like being sick and ready to die. Her eyes meet Jeanette's, Jeanette understood better then anyone in this room. She knew Jeanette was the only one out of the four vampires that knew this. She also knew that Jeanette knew how much she loved Luicen LaCroix, how much she lust after him and the fact that she had pick him to change her. Donovan was right, she needed to become a vampire but not by his unfeeling hand no, by Luicen's hand.
"What wrong Gina?" She asked as she saw Gina eyes. They looked sad and sicken. She had seen that look many times. Gina had the look of someone who falling in love, or was deeply in. Yet, how could this child love someone like Luicen LaCroix? There had to be a reason for that madness. "Tell me young one, what is wrong?" She laid a glass of blood wine on bar before a male vampire. She moved to where Gina stood at the end of the bar. She leaned on the bar, " Is it the pain? Do you needed to feed again?" She knew what happened when Gina took in Nicola's life force.
Or was it the pain of being in love with her old father. She knew that pain of how he only used people that he never felt what you felt. No he could never love he even said so, a long time ago.
"That and am lonely, have you seen your father? He never seems to want to talk to me any more. Is he even doing his show here any more?" She press her hand on her mouth, she was in pain from the fangs. She knew they would go away once all of Nick's life force was out her. She just needed to wait. "He was post to sit with me, we were going to talk about every thing that has happened."
"He went out last night, he didn't say much about where he was going. He didn't come back at all. But don't worry I knew he has not gone to see the sun rise, he mostly sleeping in one of his other resting places. He will be back and his show is already on my dear, I think he might be using tapes. I don't knew."
"Oh, I see. Then maybe he only wants to me to leave him alone. But I can't go yet... I need to speak to him and there's Nick, I must wait and see if he will feed on me again.. And Nat..." She trailed off looking at the bar. She study the lines in the bar. It seemed that this place was getting to her. Changing she needed to get out of here, but how could she leave her heart her and live without it?
"I needed the blood wine, I needed something to get the sound of all these heart beat out of my head. Please Jeanette, gave me something that will make me sleep. I have not been sleeping at all. All I have is Dark dreams."
She said to herself.
"Yes, dear. I'll get it for you, but you shouldn't drink it in the open. After I gave it to you go drink it in the office, and lay down." She also knew that LaCriox would go in there once he came back. She also knew with that much sleeping potion, she had put in the drink Gina would finely get some sleep. Only the dead would wake her up tonight and if Jeanette was luck the dead man would be her father.
************************************************************
Luicen LaCroix walked in the Raven, his home. Gina was here, her smell was in the air. Her lovely sweet smelling blood. Gods, how he wanted her and her blood. He was scared of loving her. Needing her, she was such a child and yet a women, with her wisdom and words. He knew that if he hurt her he would hurt himself. It was to much to be in the same room with her. To see her face as she smiled at him. As he walk past all the people that made him so much money. He knew the Raven was hunting grounds for so many vampires. But tonight he went some place else. To the park, for a night run and to feed. However the feeding have became to hard for him...
But every time he saw a human walking by there lonesome, they not were good enough for him. He didn't feel like he used to, their was new feelings in him. Feelings he had killed along time ago on a very cold and lonely night. He had told himself 300 years ago that he would never love or have feels of love again. Love was evil and deadly. Love was deadlier then hate. So Many have died because of love. It didn't mater what kind of love. Someone would die for it. If he loved someone they would leave him or die because of him.
Yet a young girl wanted him to see her as willing lover. This girl did not understand what she was getting herself in to. She could die. Is this what his son felt every time he looked at the Doctor? Was his son put under the same spell? He would never ask. If he told any one how he felt, they knew his weakness was a human then she would be killed or hurt. He didn't want this.
His eyes moved around the room. He never saw the Raven so filled. His Jeanette was back at the bar her sweet smile on her lovely lips. He saw the smile as clear as day he saw the sadness behind the smile. His child was lonely. He wish he could gave her more, gave her what she wanted most.
"Hello, LaCriox," she said leaning on the bar, " how was the hunt?" She was playing with bit of her hair, moving it around her fingers, just raping it around her little finger. Then undoing it, she had a child like look on her pale face. Yet LaCroix knew this face had seen death and was the last face that some had seen before they had died. This was his Dark angel, his angel of death. There was so much that he loved her for. She was his first real child, there were others but none that made his heart hurt when she was in pain, made him want to fix all that ever hurt her. She and his son was who he could never live without... Until now there was Gina, she and her lovely blue eyes that could tell him so much and hurt his very soul.
"Not very well," he turned around and look at all the people, "I think I would have had better luck here. Oh, well gave me a blood wine please." In a low voice that only his child could hear, "With more blood then wine."
As she gave it to him she said, "Why don't you go sit in the office, it might help you get some things off your mind..." She wore an evil smile on her face as she watch her father move to the office his drink in his hand, she wondered what would happen when he found Gina. She knew what she was doing was wrong, but she was bored and wanted some fun around here. And this would be fun, yes it would be very fun.
*****************************************************************
Part 3
Gina took the last drink out of the cup as her dream man came in to the room. A wine glass, her glass twin in his hand. He didn't see her right away, his eyes were stayed on his cup. They were yellow, golden and not at all scary. They made her want to kiss him and do unthinking able things to him.
"Hello, Luicen," she said from her place on the big soft chair behind his desk. "Why don't you sit? You said we could talk..." She sounded drunk, as if she had way to much wine. He did not smell it in the air. All he could smell was her. He wanted her. Now.
"Yes, that would be nice." He sat on the edge of the desk just right in front of her, "What would you like to talk about?" He lean in a little closer then pulled back. He took a quick drink of his blood wine.
Gina could smell the lovely blood that was going past his lips, those lovely lips, that were asking for her kiss. She sat up looking in to his eyes. Talk just over a whisper she said right in his ear, "Us." She sat back in the chair.
"Mmm, I see. What is there to talk about? I mean you have stay away and so have I." He said looking in to her warm blue eyes, that seem to have bits of gold swimming in them. Almost as if she was like he, but he knew that was not true for this girl was alive and he wouldn't do anything to change that.
End of 3.
Now we move on to Nick and Nat. This part is called 'The Great Plan"
Nat was sitting at her desk her little radio going, she doing a report. But her mind would not let her stay on it. It was the smell of blood all around her. Grace said she looked pale, if only Grace knew the half of it. The fact she needed to keep blood with all the time made her sick. She didn't think that it would be like this. And the one person she wanted the most to talk to and hold wasn't even talking to her.
The song on the radio stopped and the DJ voice filled the room.
"We got request from a Knight to his lady love, Lady Nat... He say that he wants only for her to forgive him. Here's the Hearts with 'Secret'."
"We lead two different lives
Just like two lines that never cross
And here we are together
Standing closer than we are
But we're still standing here untouched
We want so much to touch
And we can't wait Forever
We Know it's dangerous
For us be together."
The song was cutting in to her heart. It was one they had drance to a year ago. This she always thought of this song when she was around Nick. This song was always there to remind her she and her lover might not be alone in there pain. That all they needed to do was be together.
"How do we ever keep it in the Dark
And if we dare to taste our weakness
How could we tear ourselves apart
Why do we keep this love together
Didn't we know right from the start
That we would have keep this secret
Or Forever stay apart...."
She could feel the same old tears come to her eyes. Blood red tears came to her eyes. It was to much. She felt him near. She turned around and there he was. His eyes stood on hers. He look as if the song meant the same to him. She needed him now more then anything. She was going to lose her mind if he didn't touch her now.
"I watch you coming to me
Walking in the pouring rain
I can't help looking at you
Wishing I could stay away
So many times I've tired in vain
To close my eyes and pray it goes away
But I can't stop myself from feeling
To let you go would be too much
For me to take..."
"I am sorry Nat, I never meant to hurt you," He placed his hand on her face. As his took the tears from her pale face his lips kissed her forehead. He just held her. Wanting all her pain to leave her. Wanting her to love him again He felt his undead heart skip a beat. This was the woman he had be wanting for so long. He didn't know if she would forgive him for leaving her alone with her pain and the change.
"How do we ever keep this secret
How do we keep it in the Dark
And if we dare to taste our weakness
How could we tear ourselves apart
Why do we keep this love together
Didn't we know right from the start
That we would have to keep the secret
Or forever stay apart.
I can't help thinking
When I look into your eyes
How much I need
It's so hard to hide..."
"Yes, Nick... I forgive you, I want you so much." She hugged her lover to her. This felt great. Her tears were gone. She loved this man, it was like having her soul mate standing before. She wanted to hold him forever. He was right she was his Lady Nat and he was her, Sir Nick. She wish that they meet in that life. It would have made things so much easier. So much happier.
"How do we ever keep this secret
How do we keep it in the Dark
And if we dare to taste our weakness
How do could we tear ourselves apart
Why do we keep this love together
Didn't we know from the start
That we would have to keep this secret
Or be doomed to stay apart."
"We aren't like the song. We are not doomed, Nat we have the cure, but how are we going to use it?" Nick asked her as the song ended.
Nat let go of him and turn off the radio. "There has to be away without hurting her.
All we have to do is take her blood, agist her will, right?" Nat asked as she moved closer to her Dark lover. Gina was the key, but what if she could stay as she was, a vampire. They could stay together forever, her and her knight. But she would do what he wanted.
"Yes, that all they we have to do is to get her blood..." Nick turned around, he didn't want her to see what was in his eyes. " Her blood carries more life in it then any other, it's like being in heaven. Nat, if we take it we will be human. Be able to have children and live in the sun." He turned to look at her, " You do want to live with me and have kids, right Nat?"
"You know I do, I want everything I can have... In fact am almost off want go to my place?" She still had her home. Her cat however was staying with Grace, she was to scared she hurt him. She told Grace she was working with print and that he didn't like it and she was scared he would eat some of it. Grace bought it.
"Mmmmm... That would be great, let's go."
(At Nat's place.)
They had just walk in to her little home. "Would you like a drink?" Nat asked, all the food things were gone. She had bottles of blood in the cooler, all
kinds. She loved the mixing all the types, A with O. She didn't know if that was normal or if that would make her sick. It did make her feel better when the hunger was upon her.
"All I want is you right now... Come here Nat," his eyes were burning gold. His fangs had not drop yet but it was close. He wanted her, there was all the signs. He was hard as hell and he want to bring the souls as one.
Nat walked to him, she was not scared. She wanted him more then she wanted anyone else. She place her hand on his chest. "Then take me right now, my Dark lover."
He pick her up and carried her to the bed room. His lips went down on hers and never lift. She lick and kissed his lips. This is what she been waiting for. Her lover was finely loving her. She let herself go, she needed to be with him all of her. As she was laid on the bed her mind was only on sex and her love for man who was standing before her.
Nick's eyes fixed on the zipper of her dress. His hands were to slow to undo them all. Take both sides of the dress he ripped down the center. She lay in front of him in her bra and underwear. His hands covered her chest. "Are you sure, my love?" He didn't want to take anything she wasn't ready to gave.
In answer to Nick's question she ran her hand down to harden manhood. "I am very sure. Are you sure you're up to it?" She rub him a bit she already knew the answer.
"Nat if I was any more up for it, I'd be in the heaven, mmmm... But being in your arms already heaven." He slowly licked at her thought her bra. He could her moan, her voice filling the room.
Nat and Nick made love like they always wanted to, both seeing the love in each others eyes. As they came to their joy and end of the mating, both sets of their eyes were golden and their fangs had came in to the others neck drinking of their lover's love and blood.
Their arms around each other they looked in to their lover's eyes. "I have ideal, Gina has always told me she hates it when she when doctor takes blood from her.. A needle, it will work, we'll be doing it agist her will, and her blood would still carry the cure." She kissed Nick's noise.
"It's ideal, we can try it, and it wont hurt her." His eyes smiles in to her. And the game started all over again, him kisses and licking at her lips and her sucking on his tongue. This was the there of getting the fire in to them again.
Their only thoughts of how they love each other, but what the other didn't know is that both wanted to stay a vampire, just for the other seek they would be come human.
Loves sweet pain
Part 5
"You are such a jerk! I hope you never come near me again!" Luicen just told Gina, that he had no feeling for her, and that he saw her as only child. He saw the tears coming over her face, the only thing he wasn't ready for was that her tears were mixed with blood.
"What is this, blood? Who did this to you? Who changed you?" His anger was burning in to him. He felt as if someone had hurt his lovely one. He took another step forward as she steps back. The look in her lovely blue eyes that of pain and lost.
"Why should do I have to tell you?" Her voice was cold and filled with sweet pain. "What would you care? Am nothing to you remember. Am nothing but a fucking child? REMEMBER?!?!"
That was to heartless, she was calling him on his own pain. This wasn't what he wanted. He wanted to let her go, let her be free to find a human man to love. To have little kids who would look up to her as their mother. And she was crying blood tears. He wanted to know who brought her across, who took that from him.
"I am not talking to you, you S.O.B!" her voice filled the room, only the vampires in the other rooms could hear it. One vampire sat near the door of the office with a sweet mean smile on his lips, as he drank his blood wine. He was thinking how much fun he would have with the little bitch. Yes he would make sure the little bitch would pay. Making him look like fool in front of the other... Yes.. He would have her sweet blood and eat her heart.
Luicen look to the woman he was falling in love with the woman who made his undead heart beat. The woman who made him want to fall on his knees and kiss her feet. Yet right now. He need her to be space from her. He need to be away from the one thing that gave his unlife meaning. He had to many people around him that didn't like him to much. He wanted her safe. And if others thought he didn't care for her that would make her safer.
Gina's blood tears covered her face. She didn't like this. Her heart was moving her soul to death. Her soul was leaving her. Heart stopped beating. Then it wasn't the pain from his words. A different pain cut to her. It was the pain of losing the last bit of Nick in her changeling her back human.
Was that pain he saw on her face. Real pain? What had he done to her? He moved to her as he saw her all to her knees. He held her as she throw up the blood she had just drank. He held her as she sod agist him. He held her as she look up at him and he held as he kissed. He held her when she fall a sleep in his arms from the pain. He held when he carried her to his bed and he held as he laid down beside her. He held her. He held her. He cried.
------
Part 4
The vampire smiled. Yes things as it was planed. This would work. The vampire licked it's lips, walking back to the bar. The vampire walked in to the night. It's golden eyes look around until it meet it's master.
"How is it going?" The man said, studying the vampire.
"She has them all fooled.. Even herself fooled master." The vampire said watching the man.
"Good.. Now go keep watch. You know what to do....."
An evil smile stay on the vampire's lips.. "Yes master."
