Disclaimer::: I do not own anything from underworld i only own Kaitlin. Though i would love to own tanis :p
Kaitlin stormed the hallways, vampires dodging her as she did. They could see the hate in her eyes. The venom there. She snarled as one newling passed her. They leapt back in fright, snarling back at her, eyes full and fangs long. Kaitlin returned the snarl, grabbing the newline by the throat and throwing him down the hall. She turned back and continued walking. None dared come back towards her. She walked further and pushed open a door. Tanis turned, his eyes wide in surprise.
"I hear we're in a mood today."
Her green eyes narrowed. "That doesn't help me any."
"What do you want me to say, kate? Everything is going to be alright? Soren dies and you get to marry me? Kraven will stop harassing you? Alexander will come rescue you?"
She crossed her arms and Tanis sighed. "Look I'm sorry Katie. But there is nothing i can tell you to make you feel any better. You know this as well as i do." He walked to her and gently cupped her cheek. "I love you. But please, soren will only be all the angrier."
"I don't care about Soren. Or Amelia. I care about you."
He closed his eyes, pressing his forehead gently against hers. "I know. I love you too."He kissed the top of her head and turned her around. "Ride into the forest and kill some lycans. It'll make you feel better."
Kaitlin grinned. "No problem."
Kaitlin rode out into the woods to the lycan refuge camp. She was greeted much the same as last time until Eric saw her.
"You know, they should really learn my scent or something. Its rather old being threatened."
Eric rolled his eyes and pulled her in for an embrace. "How are you?"
"I could be better." She explained everything that had happened, and all that would occur in the coming months.
"Your forced to marry that bastard? He's merciless, and cruel, and,"
"Not helping." Xristo hissed elbowing his companion. He looked to Kaitlin. "Everything will work out Katie. And you know if you need help we are here."
"But you cant stay here. Think of what will happen if they find you Xristo. They'll slaughter you all."
"We've gained a few numbers now, we're strong enough."
Kaitlin closed her eyes. "Just swear to me you will both be careful."
Xristo kissed the top of her head. "Always. Now you best be going. I am sure someone is looking for you."
She nodded and quickly rode away. When she returned Amelia was waiting for her in the court yard. "And where have you been all night."
"Slaying. As usual. You should know me for my midnight rides Amelia." She said as she swung off of Shadow's raised and eyebrow but changed the subject.
"We have been waiting for you. Tonight is your first dress fitting."
"Dress fitting?" Kaitlin now raised a thin eyebrow. "Should it not be brides choice of dress?"
Amelia walked forward as she spoke, her human servant shadowing her every move. "Usually but not this time Kaitlin. You know your father wanted your wedding as soon as i was awakened."
"Amelia, this is foolish. I don't even want a marriage. And now i can not even choose my dress? What next? Soren is making all plans and invitations?"
Amelia nodded curtly. "Kaitlin, you knew this would happen."
Kaitlin snarled furiously. "Leave me be Amelia. I wish not for this." And she stormed away.
"Shall I send my sister for her my lady?" The servant asked in a soft voice.
"No. Send Soren for her. Let them quarrel."
"Yes my lady."
Kaitlin paced in her room, her sword still at her side. There was a harsh knock and then it opened. Kaitlin hissed.
"Leave me Soren."
"I have desire to look upon my bride. Is that so wrong of me?" He said, crossing his arms.
"Yes, it is wrong of you. I am no bride of yours. I do not belong to you. Now leave me."
"Spoiled little fire princess. Have you no heart at all?"
"No. It is cold and unbeating. The same as yours."
"Ah, see? We have something in common."
Kaitlin snarled, and stepped towards him. "These are my rooms. I wish you out of my sight."
Soren suddenly slammed her against the wall, his body pressing tight against hers, his hands wrapped far to tightly around her wrists.
"Let go of me." She hissed, fangs visible and eyes the color of ice.
Soren snarled. "You will do as i say, Kaitlin. Your blood now belongs to me. I will come and go as i please."
"I belong to no one bastard."
Soren again snarled, his fangs growing. "Silence. Spoiled princess. You will learn to obey me. Or will pay the price."
"You dare threaten me Soren? You dare raise your hands against mine?"
She shoved him hard and he was suddenly the one pinned against the wall. "You do not order me. Least of all threaten me. If any one shall pay the price Soren it shall be you." She released him but shoved him towards the door.
"You will regret this Kaitlin." And he stormed away.
Kaitlin leaned against the wall, slid to the floor, and placed her head in her hands. Kaitlin closed her eyes, and let herself fall into cruel darkness.
"Little fire princess. Where have you been?" A voice asked but Kaitlin didn't turn her head. Tears fell down her pale face as she starred up at the moon, her arms wrapped around her knees.
"Leave me please Tanis. I care for no ones company."
He sat down beside her on the cliff over looking the valley. Their was a secret entrance from the castle to get here. "What has you in tears little one?" He asked softly.
"I don't wish to speak of it. Please, tanis, just leave me alone."
He took her chin gently in his hand and turned her face towards him. "Do not let your father do this to you. Please. You hurt to much because of him."
She pulled her face away and starred back up at the moon. "I am only a child, why should i be any different?"
Tanis chuckled. "You know this not to be true sweet Kaitlin. Your father puts you down because he is afraid to take his anger out on Viktor."
"All three elders do not know anything of me. Not Marcus, not Viktor, nor even Amelia who calls herself like my mother." She looked to him, her blue eyes glowing. "I feel like there is no one."
Tanis shook his head. "Thats not true. You have me."
She searched his face and then he leaned forward and gently pressed his lips to hers. Kaitlin sighed and welcomed the warm kiss, and the warmth that it put in her chest. Tanis gently cupped her cheek with one hand and pulled her closer with the other. The kiss heated and Tanis leaned kaitlin back against the grass, his body hovering over hers. His kisses trailed from her lips to her throat, kissing and gently nipping the skin there, causing her to moan softly. She sat up a little and tans pulled away to look at her.
"Whats wrong?"
"Nothing, it's," She broke off then her eyes locked with his. "Tanis i want you."
His eyes filled with lust but his face twisted with concern. "What of your father, if he discovers us,"
She put a gentle hand to his lips. "He wont find out. No better than Viktor discovering Sonya. Please Tanis. I want you to be mine, and i want to be yours."
His lips suddenly crushed against hers, and they held there for another moment before he pushed her back into the grass again. Her arms wrapped lightly around his neck as his hands lightly took her waist. Their lips moved together as one. The two made love for the first time, long into the night. She lay curled in his arms, their naked bodies still entwined.
"Tanis, have you ever thought of leaving the coven? Going somewhere far away, and never going back."
"I have. But i dare not. I fear the consequences to much."
She rolled to face him, and he brushed a curl from her face. "I want you to run away with me one day Tanis. You and I. Sonya and lucian too. The four of us. Just run."
"Your father would come after us Kaitlin." "
He would never find us, you know this. Espeacally if i ran to Alexander. He would help us."
Tanis sighed. "I don't know Kaitlin."
"Promise me." She whispered. "Promise me we will run one day."
Tanis kissed her softly. "I promise."
Kaitlin opened her eyes, a plan forming in her mind from her dream. Slowly she sat up. She stood and walked to her window, starring out. She hadn't remembered that promise until now. Kaitlin walked to her closet and quickly dressed then ran out into the hall and away. She knocked softly on Andrea's door and opened it. His eyes met hers almost greedily.
"Yes?"
"You were thinking of me weren't you?" She asked softly.
His lips pressed tight together but he nodded. She leaned against the door until it closed, and Tanis heard the soft click of it being locked.
"I need you Tanis." She whispered. She could see how his body shook. How much he wanted her.
"I, cant." He replied. She stepped forward.
"PLease." She said simply.
Tanis reached her in three strides, his lips crushing against hers as he turned to shove her roughly against the wall. She moaned and let him ravage her mouth with his own. Her arms wrapped tightly about his neck and she jumped up to wrap her legs around his waist. Tanis moaned and then she did too as she could feel his erection. One of his hands ran down her body and reached to grip her leg. His lips moved from hers to her throat and she moaned loudly. His fangs lightly pressed there and she held him all the tighter. He turned and carried her to the bed, dropping her there, then climbing up over her. His lips again went to her throat and again she moaned softly, her body arching beneath his. one of his hands trailed down her body again. Down her leg, then up under the skirt of her dress, his hand moved all the way up to between her legs. She gasped as his hand touched there, a light hiss escaping her lips. His hand pressed against her mound and she moaned, arching beneath him again. "Please," She whispered. Tanis pulled away and quickly pulled off his clothes. Then, slowly he pulled her dress off. He gazed at her body as she gazed at his. Slowly he crawled up over her, kissing her skin as he moved up further until he reached her lips. They kissed softly and her legs moved to wrap around his waist. He posed himself before her and she gasped against his lips. Tanis pushed inside her and the two moaned, then moved together.
Kaitlin rolled to face tanis, still curled in his arms.
"Tanis, do you remember, when i was younger. The night we first made love?"
"How could i forget? Little fire princess?" He chuckled softly.
"Do you remember the promise you made?"
Tanis became serious. "Kaitlin you were young,"
"So did you lie, or will you keep to your promise?"
"Kaity, i don't know."
"Think about it Tanis? What better time to run than now? Viktor's power is rising. My father threatens us both. we could run. Just like i said. Me, you, Sonya and Lucian. The four of us. You know my grandfather holds no prejudice against lycan or vampire."
"Kaitlin, they would find us."
"No they wouldn't, please, run with me."
Tanis starred at her for a moment, then, he nodded. "Alright. we'll run."
