Chapter III

Vincent woke from the most pleasurable dream he had had in a long time, throughout the night, he had dreamt of his seduction, and consequential attack on the poor girl that had probably lay in bed all night suffering extreme pain emotionally and physically. Just the thought of it was enough to cause Vincent to have a physical reaction to it. Vincent rose from his bed, clad in only his pants, he walked into his bathroom. He looked into the mirror, and got a shock. His eyes seemed to shine more than normal, but that wasn't all. His skin had more color to it. He laughed when he saw the dried blood around his mouth. Thankfully, he had returned to his room uninterrupted, if he had run into someone, he wouldn't of been able to talk himself out of it. He washed his face, scrubbing the evidence of last night away. For some reason, he was certain that Yuffie wouldn't tell anyone about what had happened. He had gotten his first victim, and it couldn't of gone anymore smoothly. He quickly stripped his clothing, deciding that a shower would be best. He stepped into the shower, letting the steaming hot water run over his body. He took his time washing himself, and then just stood there, holding his head under the shower head. He contemplated about who he should go after next. Tifa would be the easiest, as he could simply seduce her the way he had Yuffie. Still he thought, considering pursuing Cid, or even Cloud. He gave up on deciding at this time, figuring that he had all day to think about it. He turned off the shower, and stepped out. Grabbing a towel, he wrapped it around his waist, he stepped back into the main part of the room, finding Yuffie sitting on his bed. She looked extremely pale, the black rings around her eyes confirmed Vincent suspicion that she probably hasn't slept at all last night. She continued to look down at the ground, almost as if in shame. Vincent ignored her, moving over to his wardrobe, he withdrew his outfit for that day, and let the towel drop to the floor. He could immediately feel Yuffie's eyes looking at him. He ignored them, and continued to change. Once he had finished dressing, he turned around. To his surprise, Yuffie stood up, and walked over to him. She stopped about a foot from him, and looked up into his eyes. She had a frown on her face, and her eyes were glistening with water. She burst into tears as she threw herself at him, wrapping her arms around him and embracing him.

"I don't know why you did that last night." She managed to get in between sobs. "But if that what it takes to be with you, I'll do it."

Vincent smiled. Brushed the hair from her eyes, causing her to look up. "If that is your wish, then you may stay here."

Yuffie responded by burying her face back into his chest. He didn't love her, but now he had a food source as long as it took for him to plot his next attack. He held her for a little longer, letting her finish crying. Finally, he spoke. "Why don't you go back to your room, get showered and changed. And try to wear something to cover up your neck."

Yuffie nodded, and quickly left him alone. Smiling at the change in events, he grabbed his cape and exited his room. He had a lot of planning to do if he was going to take the entire group.
