"HELP ME!"
Vynn was surprised. The boy was very punctual. Almost immediately after Sebastian had alerted the Institute of an attack on a 'mundane', he had come running. And he was alone. He was going to be very easy prey, she thought. Vynn continued to scream as demon servants crawled all over her body. The boy was already picking them off with ease, angel-sword flashing. Soon he would be close enough to touch, and to destroy.
"Are you okay?" The boy asked, still fighting the demons.
Instead of replying, she screamed again. The sound prompted the boy to move faster.
It might be a shame to take him, Vynn thought, he is so beautiful. But I have already promised him to Sebastian, although that child will have no idea how to fully control the boy, and will surely be found out.
At long last, the boy finally dispatched the last demon with a swift hit from his blade. As blood and ichor rained down, the boy ran to Vynn, still not seeing past her human disguise.
"It's okay now, they're gone. I'm not gonna hurt you either," he said.
He reached out a hand to help her up off of the ground. Vynn reached up, and as she grabbed his hand, she felt her glamour fading away and the comfortable, familiar heat as flames engulfed her body. She felt the ecstasy as she sucked up his pathetic human emotions and the 12 souls, 6 mundane, 6 Shadowhunter flooded out of her and into the boy. She sucked up his emotions: shock, fear, anger. And then almost choked as those emotions were sucked dry and she felt a deep, strong love.
Sebastian had warned me of his love, but I wasn't expecting this hell, Vynn thought as the sickly sweet emotion was absorbed, and then rejected by her body, causing her a burning pain.
But even love fades eventually, and Vynn breathed a sigh of relief as the love left and was replaced with more typical emotions.
Vynn grew stronger as the boy grew weaker. He collapsed to the ground, and when there was nothing left of any of his emotions, she let him go. The boy dropped to the ground, hitting his head on the cold, wet ground of the alley where he found her.
Oops... Oh well, Sebastian didn't say anything about not damaging the merchandise! Vynn thought, unconcerned. Let him deal with it!
Vynn walked away, pulled out her phone, and sent a message:
It is done. The boy is yours, but I keep his emotions.
Less than a minute later, she got a reply.
What? That is not what we agreed on! I need his emotions!
You said you needed the boy. You have him. You said nothing about the emotions. They are mine.
Vynn sent the message, and disappeared.
