Disclaimer: Yeah, and pigs fly. The nightcore version of Cascada's song Dangerous is also mot mine, just mentioned.

Because I got a review right after posting even if they were too lazy to log in.

'thoughts' "speaking"

True Intentions

My body had tensed up immediately, my fight or flight response pumping adrenaline through my system. That's when a pair of red eyes caught my attention from across the room.

My target for the night.

My smirk was instantaneous and thoroughly smug. 'Bingo.' I turned to the vampire still leaning over me. "If you'll excuse me love, I have a previous engagement to complete." I stood and quickly slid past him, making a beeline for the out of control vampire who had been abducting women for his thralled harem.

My nose curled up slightly in disgust when I finally saw him surrounded by no less than nine thralled woman.

I quickly altered my expression to match their empty gazes. "Why look at the pretty thing that's here to join us; a perfect little sister for you all." The women merely giggled in a creepy, hollow way while more disgust swept through me- his first victims had been three sisters, the youngest of them was only twelve.

I snatched one of the full glasses off the table and settled myself close to him, angling my body in such a way that my right hand was hidden. I poured some holy water into the drink and passed it to him. "Have a drink master." He laughed and did so.

He didn't realize anything was wrong until I jumped up and retreated. Then the pain crossed his face before he exploded into ashes, shocking all the previous thralled women into hysterics. My smile was a bit predatory when I returned to Sakura's side, and by extension, the side of the two vampire princes.

One of my favorite songs started playing then and I hummed along under my breath. I was thoroughly amused by the situation- I was sitting in a bar beside two of the very creatures I killed for a living listening to a faster remix of the song titled Dangerous. I started to sip the fruity little alcoholic drink the elder prince had bought me earlier but shifted the alcohol out of system quickly. 'At least it tastes good…'

I glanced over at Sakura and worry flooded through me instantly- something wasn't right about her blank gaze and the younger vamp was sweating hard. 'Huh, I didn't realize vamps could sweat. Interesting. Gah! Stop worrying about that- worry about your best friend.'

I frowned and grabbed the younger boy's arm. "Whatever you are doing to her, stop it. Now." He snarled at me and the movements of his lips told me his answer, 'no'. "You stubborn fool; you're going to kill her!" I stood up and grabbed their arms, dragging Sakura along with the foolish Prince outside the club. We have to hear each other to argue properly.

The elder male followed me until he could hover just behind me as I released the two adults. "If you continue to try to thrall her you'll crush her spirit, you'll kill her." "She won't stop fighting me!"

I stared at him blanking before anger flooded through me. "You ignorant little fool! Of course she's fighting you; she hates being seen as weak!" I lowered my voice and forced as much ice into as I could when he still kept his red eyes locked on hers. "I swear to kami, if she dies, I will hunt you down and make you wish for the mercy and relief true death would give you."

"No."

Panic was beginning to thrum through me, if I didn't hurry he would kill her- even now he might be shattering through her defenses and damaging her brain.

That's when his brother stepped in. "Release her otouto, or I will punish you." He snarled but obeyed- Sakura hit the ground with a gasp. "You sick bastard!" She then proceeded to slap him, I was amused- the younger prince, not so much.

"Bonjour mon chérie." I rolled my eyes even as a smile tugged at my lips. "Still pretending you're French Akido-kun?" My silver haired friend raised a hand to his heart with a mock offended look. "You wound me my dear." I smirked. "Tough honey, just think dark green eyes, dark hair, black shirt, and dark green leather pants and you'll survive."

He beamed at me. "This is why I love you." My smirk widened. "That and because I'm awesome." "Hmm." He jogged over to the door, completely ignoring us now that he had his personal mission of conquest to complete.

I quickly pushed those thoughts from my head. "Well, my mission is done and it's late- I'm going back to my place. You?" Sakura just nodded, still looking a bit upset. "Awesome. Later boys." I waved over my shoulder and started walking until the alleyway was blocked by none other than the elder vamp.

"I'm coming with you." I shrugged. "Whatever floats your boat honey." I continued to walk even though my heels were killing my poor abused feet. "That's it, I can't take it anymore." I turned the older prince and held my arms open. "Carry me please?" I schooled my expression into the most pathetic, pleading look I could.

He didn't say a word and just picked me up- bridal style. I was a bit uncomfortable about it but decided I didn't care after a while, especially since it meant I didn't have to walk anymore.

We soon arrived at my apartment and I dug out my keys and unlocked the door since my escort was kind enough to lower me to that height. He walked in, kicked the door closed, relocked the doors, and walked to bedroom, all without having to put me down once. I was impressed, but then again he wasn't human.

He deposited me on the bed and I immediately ripped the traitorous shoes off my feet. "So much better." I then limped into the bathroom for a nice shower- I hated smelling like the clubs. As soon as that was accomplished I curled up in my bed and slept.

Completely oblivious to red eyes still watching me.

So, yeah…Akido pretends to be French sometimes to try to impress the fresh meat- who usually turn out to be straight, much to his disappointment.
